Chapter 70 Chapter 70 “Would you like to live with me in…
At the beginning of this year, Liang Siyu had plans to start a business, but he did not study finance in college, and as the second son in the family, he was not disciplined strictly enough. He himself did not have any pursuits in his daily life and did not know much about this area.
After getting to know Pei Lanqing, he thought about it and decided to try to be an investor. He had a good vision and a certain sensitivity to the economic market, but he could not help but show some hesitation when making strategies.
Not wanting his family to interfere too much before he had made any achievements, Liang Siyu subconsciously sought advice from Pei Lanqing.
Although Pei Lanqing's practice is mostly litigation, and he is not a specialized investment lawyer, he has a fairly in-depth understanding of non-litigation business, which is sufficient to solve a series of problems he has encountered regarding capital raising, operations, risk management, and investment exit.
Before the two parted, Liang Siyu paid the consultation fee to Pei Lanqing. He could see that he was quite surprised, but Liang Siyu also had his own stance. After saying some polite words, he quickly left the office building, claiming that he had a blind date in the afternoon.
Pei Lanqing didn't say much. Looking at his receding back, he suddenly thought of the consulting fee he had declined last time, and a vague guess arose in his mind.
He lowered his eyes, smiled softly, and returned to the law firm alone.
Lin Qianyuan admitted it herself without him having to remind her that she had gotten home early from get off work, and returned the consulting fee she had collected to him.
"Why do you want it to be free?" she muttered. "You're obviously very expensive."
Pei Lanqing couldn't help laughing after hearing this. He took her hand and pulled her in front of him. He leaned on the desk, bent down, and looked into her eyes intently. "Information exchange."
He carefully traced her features with his gaze, a gentle smile playing on his lips. "Because we're not in a meeting room or something like that, the conversation isn't so formal. Sometimes I can hear about your recent situation."
Often Liang Siyu would mention it on his own initiative without him having to ask, and if he didn't say anything to interrupt him, he would hear more.
Lin Qianyuan looked puzzled. "My recent situation?" Pei Lanqing nodded and smiled. "Yes, yours."
Lin Qianyuan's lips were slightly brimming with anger, which was rising subtly. He had a strong ability to comprehend things, "That means my information is also very valuable."
Pei Lanqing hummed, looked at her, and said with a hint of ridicule, "What should we do with the money now?"
Lin Qianyuan didn't think about it for long, and said seriously, "No matter what, it's all yours."
Whoever works gets what he gets.
Pei Lanqing was amused by her expression. He put his arm around her waist and brought her closer to him. He imitated her serious expression and replied, "Thank you."
Lin Qianyuan didn't like to hear him talk about this. She didn't like to hear it before, and naturally she didn't want to hear it now.
She obediently leaned into his arms, her eyes dodging for a moment, a little shy and timid, but her actions were bold. She raised her hands to hook his neck and pull him down, then did nothing and just stared at him.
In just two seconds, Pei Lanqing bent down cooperatively and kissed her actively.
Lin Qianyuan was a little unsteady on her feet and was carried to sit on the desk again. The kiss lasted for a long time, and she tilted her head back to avoid it and take a breath. Just as she changed, he covered her again, wrapped around her, and continued to kiss deeply.
The night comes later in summer. The sunset disappears, the sky gradually darkens, and the Clivia on the balcony is immersed in darkness. After a long time, the lights in the living room are turned on.
Lin Qianyuan followed Pei Lanqing into the kitchen and watched him cook as usual. As she watched, she raised her hand and poked his arm, then leaned over and asked, "What are we having for dinner tonight?"
Pei Lanqing was still preparing the fish. He turned and glanced at her. "Squirrel mandarin fish."
Lin Qianyuan nodded, rolled up his sleeves that were about to fall off, and stood aside. Suddenly, he remembered to say to him, "I plan to buy this house. Do you want to buy it?"
"..." Pei Lanqing thought he had misheard for a moment. The starch wrapped around the fish meat floated into his mouth. He coughed a few times, feeling caught off guard.
Lin Qianyuan raised his hand and patted his back, muttering to himself, "It seems that it doesn't matter whether I want it or not."
They are more than just a simple boyfriend and girlfriend.
Pei Lanqing didn't stop his hands and moved his mouth to say something. Lin Qianyuan glanced at him with a calm expression and explained with reason and evidence: "There is no studio here. I can't work."
She also had her own plans, "That second bedroom is a bit redundant."
Pei Lanqing's reaction was a little slow, "Then I..."
Lin Qianyuan crossed her arms over her chest and raised her chin proudly. "You're not redundant," she said. Then she snorted, "Aren't you going to live here anymore?"
Pei Lanqing hesitated for a moment, but finally said, "Actually, according to Chinese law, if the ownership of the leased property changes during the lessee's possession period as per the lease contract, it does not affect the validity of the lease contract."
Lin Qianyuan narrowed his eyes, "What do you mean?"
Pei Lanqing leaned over and kissed her cheek. "What I mean is that even if you buy this house, the original lease contract will still be valid."
Lin Qianyuan nodded expressionlessly. She understood that even if she became the owner of this house, she still couldn't drive people away, and she might not even be able to live there herself.
She turned and was about to leave.
Pei Lanqing stopped her with a smile. His hands were covered in starch, so he could only hug her in a weird position. "That's not my idea."
Lin Qianyuan snorted coldly and turned away to avoid him from entering her sight.
Pei Lanqing lowered his head and gently kissed her ear. Her ears were sensitive and turned red after just two kisses.
Lin Qianyuan turned to look at him angrily, and asked in a bad tone, "What are you doing?"
Pei Lanqing stared at her, washed his hands, then held hers and slowly said to her, "You don't have to give me these. The things you buy with your own money are naturally yours, and I won't take more than you deserve."
"Regarding this matter, I have drawn up a property agreement. It's in the second drawer of the study. You..."
Lin Qianyuan really didn't like listening to him talk about these things. He had his insistence, and so did she. It was not like she didn't understand things like prenuptial agreements, but she had never thought about divorce.
In the minds of people like her, the number of times he can betray her is only zero and one. Just like life, she will not harm others and will only target him.
It's like this anyway, either we share it or we don't.
Lin Qianyuan used a little force on her hand to pull the person in front of her closer. She looked up at his eyes and interrupted him, "I won't give it to you, but I've decided to buy it. I'm also going to convert the second bedroom into a studio. Do you want to live with me in the master bedroom?"
Pei Lanqing choked and looked at her in silence.
Lin Qianyuan was frank and simply admitted, "I can't sleep without seeing you before bed."
Pei Lanqing's face flushed. "You..." He stammered for a long time before finally saying, "You can fall asleep."
"I can't," Lin Qianyuan didn't let go of his hand, blinking his eyes, very innocently, "When I first moved in here, I basically stayed awake until dawn. That sleeping sachet is completely useless, and the smell is getting more and more annoying. I might as well go see you."
Mentioning this, Lin Qianyuan complained again, "You're not even awake."
"..." How could she be so confident? Pei Lanqing had never been so speechless before. He closed his eyes and asked, "You go to my room every night?"
"Yes," Lin Qianyuan nodded seriously, looking distressed, "I have no choice."
She leaned in front of him and showed him the gray under her eyes. "Then I can't sleep. What can I do?"
Pei Lanqing unconsciously placed his fingers under her eyes, stroking them gently. He couldn't bear to blame her, "Is it because of a nightmare?"
Lin Qianyuan shook her head, very honestly, "Not entirely, it's mainly because I can't get used to sleeping in a bed." After saying that, she suddenly thought of something and restrained her expression, "If you don't live with me, I'll have to sleep on the sofa in the future."
Pei Lanqing looked at her silently without saying a word, then leaned over and held her in his arms.
Lin Qianyuan felt that something was wrong with him. After waiting for a few seconds but he still didn't speak, she had no choice but to ask, "What?"
Pei Lanqing buried his face in her neck and hugged her tighter. "Lin Qianyuan," he called her name a few times, but said nothing after that.
Lin Qianyuan was slightly startled, then hugged him back, her eyes lowered as she smiled softly, "Actually, the sofa in the attic is quite comfortable to sleep on." Afraid that he wouldn't believe her, she emphasized, "Really? I'll take you to try it next time."
Pei Lanqing hugged her tightly, touched her hair, and nodded in response: "Yeah."
He leaned over and kissed her forehead. "After dinner, I'll go to the second bedroom to move the luggage."
Lin Qianyuan nodded, tiptoed and kissed him, not deeply, and grazed his lips with her teeth, "I want to eat fish."
Pei Lanqing let him go with a smile, "I understand."
Lin Qianyuan also smiled, walked over to his side, and continued to watch him cook.
Lin Qianyuan's desire to convert the second bedroom into a studio was indeed a sudden idea, but it was indeed urgent.
The last lecture worked, and a collector found her and wanted her to create a painting. He had no requirements, only a time limit.
There were no major problems in buying the house. The landlord couple had already settled abroad, and Lin Qianyuan set the price strictly according to the market price, so the couple agreed very readily.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Lin Qianyuan also wanted to replace some of the furniture in his home, and after that, there were movers coming in and out of the house continuously.
Zhang Shurui ran into this one day and sent a message to ask what happened at Pei Lanqing's home?
Pei Lanqing gave a few simple explanations, which made Zhang Shurui admire him repeatedly. He happened to run into Lin Qianyuan who had just come out of the elevator. He immediately put away his expression, greeted him politely, opened the door quickly and went home.
Qin Yi cleaned the house and saw Lin Qianyuan coming over. He took two quick steps to greet her, "Ms. Lin, your studio has been tidied. I asked my aunt, and the placement of things is exactly the same as the one you have abroad."
"As for your paintings..."
It was drizzling outside. Lin Qianyuan placed his umbrella at the door and added, "I'll bring it over in a few days."
Qin Yi said nothing more, "Okay."
Lin Qianyuan had just been to the art park and was a little tired after going back and forth. He said, "You go back first."
Qin Yi closed the door and left.
Lin Qianyuan sat on the sofa for a while, then stood up and went into the studio to take a look around. It was exactly the same as the one she had abroad, even the details were restored.
She sat down in front of the easel. Knowing she hadn't painted for a while, she felt itchy, so she went back to the bedroom to change her clothes and came in to start sketching with a pencil.
Pei Lanqing worked overtime today. Before leaving get off work, he called Lin Qianyuan and asked her if she had had dinner.
Lin Qianwang looked out the window and realized how late it was. In the few seconds she recovered, she heard the person on the other end of the phone ask her, "Are you painting?"
Lin Qianyuan nodded lightly.
Pei Lanqing smiled and thought for a moment, "Would you like something sweet?" Lin Qianyuan wasn't picky about food and was easily satisfied. "Yes."
Pei Lanqing turned off the lights in the office and said, "Then you continue with your work. I'll go buy it."
"Okay," Lin Qianyuan hung up the phone.
Pei Lanqing took a short detour to a more famous dessert shop. When he returned, the person in the security room greeted him politely, "Are you working overtime tonight?"
Pei Lanqing lowered the car window and said, "Yes, I've been a bit busy at work lately."
The security guard expressed his understanding, then suddenly remembered something and asked, "Lawyer Pei, did you know that your house has a new owner?"
Pei Lanqing nodded gently, "I know." After that, he smiled at him, "You are busy, I will go home first."
The security guard hurriedly let us in, "Oh, oh, okay."
