Su Tiantian was sitting in the car driven by Brother Sheng, and they had been gone for two hours. Before they left, Liu Jingze had sent the location of his house in Kuozhou City to her and Brother Sheng, saying that he would wait for her there. So she got in the car and fell asleep, thinking that she had to attend a company dinner party in the evening, so she decided to take a rest first.
The ringing of the phone woke Su Tiantian up. She opened her eyes and looked at the phone interface. It was Vice President Xu calling, so she pressed the answer button: "Vice President Xu, good afternoon."
Vice President Xu's voice boomed, "Tiantian, didn't you check WeChat? I haven't received your reply yet."
Su Tiantian said, "Sorry, I fell asleep as soon as I got in the car on the way back. I'm watching it now."
Su Tiantian opened WeChat and saw a message in the group chat: "Tonight's gathering is at Room 1201, Building 13, Fuyi Garden (Mr. Lai's house), time: 6:30 PM. Please reply if you get it." Then there was a location. Everyone in the group who was going to the party that evening had replied, except Su Tiantian. So, Su Tiantian quickly replied: "Got it, and will be there on time."
Su Tiantian looked at her phone and said, "Brother Sheng, we are going to Fuyi Garden, right? How long will it take us to get there?"
Brother Sheng said, "Yes, Mrs. Liu, it will take about 40 minutes."
Su Tiantian said, "It's weird for you to call me Mrs. Liu."
Brother Sheng said honestly, "That's what Mr. Xiao Liu said. And I'm not the only one who calls you that, right?"
Well, that’s true. Although they haven’t officially gotten married yet, more than one person already calls her Mrs. Liu.
Su Tiantian looked at the time. It was 3:15, so she would probably arrive at 4 o'clock.
Su Tiantian sent a message to Liu Jingze: Brother Jing, are you in Room 303, Building 9, Fuyi Garden now?
Liu Jingze responded quickly this time: Yes, I'm here.
Su Tiantian: The place where I will attend the party tonight is Room 1201, Building 13, Fuyi Garden, the house of the general manager of the company. Isn’t that a coincidence?
Liu Jingze: That’s really a coincidence. Building 13 is a large house with an area of about 150 square meters. There are two households and two elevators there, while mine has four households and two elevators.
Su Tiantian: He must have just bought it. I heard him say a few months ago that he wanted to buy a house to make it more convenient for his children to go to school. Brother Sheng said he could be at the complex around 4 o'clock.
Liu Jingze: Okay, I will pick you up at the gate of the community then.
About half an hour later, Brother Sheng said, "Mrs. Liu, why don't you inform Mr. Liu that we'll be there in six or seven minutes."
Su Tiantian: "I'll send him a message. By the way, Brother Sheng, have you ever been to Fuyi Garden before?"
Brother Sheng said, “I’ve been there twice before.”
Su Tiantian: Brother Jing, we’ll be there in six or seven minutes.
Liu Jingze: Okay, I’ll wait for you.
Sure enough, they soon arrived at Fuyi Garden. The gate of this community was luxurious and majestic, and Liu Jingze was standing at the door of the security room.
Brother Sheng parked the car to the left of the community gate and said, "Mrs. Liu, please get off here. This car is not registered in the community and is generally not allowed to enter."
Su Tiantian opened the back door and got out of the car. Brother Sheng also got out and took Su Tiantian's luggage from the trunk: a suitcase and a backpack.
Liu Jingze also came over, ruffled Su Tiantian's hair and said, "Tiantian, you're here."
Su Tiantian smiled brightly: "Brother Jing, good afternoon."
Brother Sheng said, "Mr. Liu, good afternoon. Shall I go home now?"
Liu Jingze said, "Sorry to bother you, Brother Sheng."
Liu Jingze put on his backpack, pushed the luggage bag, and walked towards the gate of the community holding Su Tiantian's hand with his right hand. Su Tiantian walked beside him with only a cross-body bag on her back: "Brother Jing, I can carry the luggage myself."
Liu Jingze held Su Tiantian's hand tightly and said, "Can't you just behave well for your fiancé? It's very close. Enter the gate of the community, turn right and it's the second building."
It was indeed very close, and the two of them soon arrived at Room 303, Building 9. This was a house with two bedrooms, a living room, a kitchen, and a bathroom. There were two balconies, but they were very small and decorated very simply in a more leisurely style.
Liu Jingze put down his luggage and showed Su Tiantian the entire house. He said, "When Dad bought this house, he didn't intend to live here. He didn't buy a parking space. He just simply renovated it. He didn't buy all the furniture and appliances. There's no refrigerator, TV, or washing machine. There's no cooking utensils, only an electric kettle for boiling water, and a simple two-door wardrobe. So we need to think about how to decorate it and what furniture, appliances, and daily necessities we should buy. I've already had someone come and clean it once, and the sheets are new."
Su Tiantian and Liu Jingze were sitting on a black leather sofa at this time. The living room was not big, with a set of sofas and a coffee table, as well as a TV cabinet and a partition cabinet. It looked quite cozy.
Su Tiantian exclaimed, "Uncle Liu really has a good eye for investment. This place is across from a primary school, close to a middle school, and a hospital. There's a large supermarket downstairs, and transportation is convenient. The living environment is really nice, with plenty of green space. He bought it at a low price, and even though property prices have dropped now, it's still appreciated quite a bit. I don't think there's much need for renovation here. Just buy some furniture, appliances, and daily necessities, and figure out how to arrange them."
Liu Jingze and Su Tiantian held hands tightly. Although they hadn't seen each other for just over a day, he still missed her very much. He said, "This place is half an hour's drive from your company, not too far. You can live here or in the apartment the company assigns you. You don't have to save money for me. You can decorate it however you want. It won't cost you anything."
Su Tiantian said coquettishly, "I'm not trying to save you money. I'm speaking from the heart. Not only here, but also on the third floor where we're going to live, I don't want to do any major renovations. First, the original decoration is pretty good. Second, I'm worried about formaldehyde after the renovations. Would we have to move somewhere else first? My living requirements are comfort, not necessarily luxury and exquisiteness. Third, didn't you say you have an apartment that hasn't been renovated yet? If you want to renovate it properly, then renovate that apartment."
Liu Jingze said, "That apartment is a bit small. I'm sorry to have troubled you."
Su Tiantian said, "Of course it's less than yours. You know, your room is as big as this house. Dad said that when I marry you, the one-bedroom and one-living room on the third floor will be reserved for me to live in when I return to my parents' home, and the entire second floor will be reserved for Zhihao. Zhihao said the other day that he never thought he could live in three rooms. When I told him that the third floor where you live has more than 200 square meters, he was very envious and said he wanted to go and see it."
Liu Jingze said, "Then bring him home next time. Oh, and take a look at what furniture, appliances, and daily necessities you want to buy. Also, I'll talk to you about transferring ownership of the house."
Su Tiantian said: "There is no rush to transfer the ownership of the house."
