Chapter 149: The lingering He Xiuzhi



"Ah? It has to be within a month? This is a bit tricky!" He Xiuzhi felt a little headache. For such a big matter as buying a house, shouldn't one choose carefully again and again?

Why is there a time limit?

"Anyway, I need to buy a house within a month. It doesn't matter whether it's a courtyard house or not." Chen Xi spoke again firmly.

He Xiuzhi didn't say anything more and nodded, "Okay! I got it! I'll see if I can get that order within a month! But before that, you need a favor and prepare enough goods. I'll contact you then. If it works out." Chen Guodong has always been mysterious in doing things.

He Xiuzhi knew this clearly.

So I stopped trying to persuade him.

"Thank you for your help." Chen Xi said with a grateful look on his face.

He Xiuzhi waved his hand. "What's the big deal? It's just a mutually beneficial matter! Besides, buying a house is a big deal. As your brother, it's okay for me to help you."

Chen Xi was quite touched when he heard this.

Next, Chen Xi found a time to separate from He Xiuzhi.

Then I started looking at houses again.

But this time, she took a bus to look at houses near the university where she was going to attend.

I have to say that the houses of this era are really average.

Even in Beijing, it’s just average.

Chen Xi walked around the area and finally locked onto a few houses.

After recording the addresses and characteristics of these houses, he secretly took out his mobile phone from the future and took a few photos. He planned to take them back and discuss with Sikong Ling which of these houses would be more suitable as their future residence.

But Chen Xi has difficulty making decisions and thinks it would be a good idea to look at more houses.

So for the next few days, Chen Xi went to the city to look at houses.

Mother Chen knew Chen Xi's plan and did not stop her. She took care of the child and everything at home diligently.

Over the past few days, Chen Xi has looked at no less than a dozen houses and made records of them all.

Then he counted on his fingers the time when Sikong Ling would come back.

After Chen Xi's day and night anticipation, Sikong Ling finally returned late one night, steaming hot.

"Wife, why aren't you asleep yet?" Sikong Ling opened the door and came in. He found that the light in their room was still on, so he quickened his pace and walked in.

Then I realized that Chen Xi was writing and drawing on a notebook with a pen and paper.

Sikong Ling walked forward and placed his hands on Chen Xi's shoulders, then lowered his head and rubbed her ears.

"I've looked at a lot of houses during the past few days when you were away. Can you help me take a look and see if there is any that you think is good?" Chen Xi said as he took out his cell phone and placed it in front of Sikong Ling.

Sikong Ling was no longer surprised by things like mobile phones. He took the phone and opened it to look at the photo album.

"You've looked at a lot of houses! More than a dozen!" Sikong Ling exclaimed in amazement after taking a quick look at the photos.

"Yes, there are quite a few. So take a look at these houses and see which one is suitable?" Chen Xi asked.

Sikong Ling looked at it carefully again. "You didn't find anything you liked?"

"I think it would be better if it's closer to school." Chen Xi thought for a moment and said.

"Then let's eliminate those that are far from the school and choose some that are closer." Sikong Ling also put away his joking look, seriously pulled a stool and sat down next to Chen Xi, and took the notebook that Chen Xi handed over from his hand.

"He Xiuzhi asked me to wait for him, saying that he would try his best to get a big order so that we can make a lot of money, and then let us buy the courtyard house." Of course, Chen Xi did not forget what Sikong Ling had said to her.

"He Xiuzhi? That kid is in Beijing?" Sikong Ling frowned when he heard the name.

"Isn't it a coincidence? He arrived in Beijing earlier than us. Someone sent a telegram to tell them that we had arrived in Beijing, so he came to find us." Chen Xi explained why He Xiuzhi came to his house.

"This kid is really haunting me!" Sikong Ling was still thinking about spending some time alone with his wife, but he didn't expect that kid to come back so soon.

"It's okay. At worst, you can become Chen Guodong and trade with him, and I won't show up." Chen Xi knew what her husband cared about, so she readily let Sikong Ling deal with He Xiuzhi.

"Yes, now I can also use the space. Then when I trade with him in the future, you just need to put the goods to be traded in the space." Sikong Ling already knew the transaction method between Chen Xi and He Xiuzhi, so it was naturally easy for him to operate.

"Yeah, okay!" Chen Xi nodded, and the couple made the decision tacitly.

"I'm sorry, Xixi. The tasks these days are quite heavy. I have been working day and night so I don't have time to meet you in the space. You must be worried, right?" Sikong Ling knew very well that Chen Xi would be worried about him since he hadn't been in the space for several days, so it was always right to admit his mistakes first.

"Given your current health, I'm not really worried that anything will happen to you, but I'm worried that you'll be discovered." Chen Xi said sincerely. His personal safety was no longer within his scope of concern.

I'm just worried that Sikong Ling will reveal his physical specialness.

"Of course I know this, so I won't accept any mission that doesn't require a solo operation." Sikong Ling threw the notebook on the table, then pulled Chen Xi into his arms and sat down.

Chen Xi sat comfortably in Sikong Ling's arms, putting her arms around his neck.

"That's fine. The chance of being exposed when acting alone is not high." Chen Xi breathed a sigh of relief.

"Well, I made you worry. It's my fault." Sikong Ling buried his head in Chen Xi's shoulder and took a deep breath. "Wife, I miss you so much~"

Chen Xi was no match for Sikong Ling, and instantly surrendered completely, collapsing in his arms.

A short separation is better than a new marriage. In order not to disturb others, the couple entered the space and did not fall asleep exhausted until dawn.

Not long after I fell asleep, I heard Chen Ma's voice calling me.

As a special forces soldier, Sikong Ling was naturally much more vigilant.

He opened his eyes immediately and reminded Chen's mother not to wake Chen Xi up again.

He got up, put on his clothes and left the space.

Mother Chen did as she was told and left the space.

After walking out of the room, Sikong Ling realized that someone was looking for him.

"My boyfriend got into trouble when he was on a mission with Sikong Ling! Sikong Ling should be responsible for me!" A sharp female voice suddenly sounded outside the door. At this moment, many people had gathered outside the door.

Everyone was pointing at the gate of Sikong Ling's courtyard.

Sikong Ling's tall figure attracted everyone's attention as soon as he appeared.

"Captain Sikong, this girl said her man died while on a mission with you!"

"Captain Sikong, what's going on?" The confused military families started chattering, just to watch the fun.
