Chapter 41 Selling a House
Li Jingshen didn't help and just kept watching Shen Zhichu busying herself, running from top to bottom, from inside to outside. Finally, Shen Zhichu's stomach couldn't take it anymore, so she went back to the bedroom, opened the drawer, took out the two bottles of medicine and took one pill from each.
"What medicine are you taking?" Li Jingshen asked. He had seen the two glass bottles of medicine in the drawer before, but although he was curious, he had never asked.
Shen Zhichu said calmly: “The stomach medicine is prescribed by the doctor.”
Li Jingshen didn't ask any more questions, he knew she had stomach problems.
After a pause, he continued, "Don't even think about moving if you haven't recovered yet."
"I'm not moving because I want to, but because I'm short of money and need to sell this house urgently. Li Jingshen, you should know better than anyone why I'm short of money." If Li Jingshen had been a little more considerate of their marriage and left her a way out, she wouldn't have had such a hard time during this period.
“How much do you plan to sell this apartment for?
"I paid 5.69 million in one lump sum. After deducting the decimals, I'd sell it for 5 million now." The current housing prices are much higher than they were three years ago. Not to mention 5 million, there would be people who would buy it even at 8 million. It just takes some time.
What Shen Zhichu lacked was time; she didn't have that much time to wait.
Li Jingshen crossed his arms, his hawk-like eyes making people dare not look directly at him. After a while, he said to Shen Zhichu, "I bought the house, and it will be our joint property as husband and wife."
"You want to buy it?" Shen Zhichu quickly reacted, "Sure, as long as you pay, the house is yours."
Li Jingshen took out a cigarette from his pocket, took out a cigarette and lit it, then played with it in his hand without smoking. The orange-red light flickered in the shadows and looked very bright.
Li Jingshen was not addicted to smoking. He would only take a puff when he encountered something troubling him. Li Jingshen held the cigarette in his mouth and took out his wallet from the lining and pulled out a bank card.
"There's five million in here."
Shen Zhichu walked over and took the bank card, "I will arrange for a lawyer to transfer the property as soon as possible."
She can't stand the smell of cigarettes. In the past, when she was doing business, she would inevitably meet smokers. She could tolerate it at that time, but now she has stomach cancer and will have a stress response when she smells irritating smells.
Li Jingshen obviously also noticed that she didn't like the smell of cigarettes. He left the room and said, "You don't have to move. You can live here. Besides, Mingyue will move here in a couple of days."
Xia Mingyue moved here? Li Jingshen's tone was not discussing with her. Shen Zhichu looked at him with inquiry, and suddenly a disgusting idea arose in his mind.
Is it because Li Jingshen doesn't want to divorce her that he wants to keep the red flag flying at home and the colorful flags fluttering outside?
Shen Zhichu frowned and smiled: “Okay, as long as you are happy.”
Li Jingshen came back today just to talk about this matter with Shen Zhichu. Yesterday, Xia Mingyue asked him about his divorce with Shen Zhichu again. After knowing that he would not divorce, she proposed to live with him even if Shen Zhichu was around, she didn't mind. He had no choice but to agree.
But Li Jingshen didn't expect Shen Zhichu to agree so readily. This was not in line with her personality. Shen Zhichu had a flamboyant personality and had been in charge of Shen's for so many years. Her aura was naturally superior to that of ordinary people. Her pride did not allow her to bow to others easily, let alone live under the same roof with a "lover".
Li Jingshen couldn't tell whether he was happy or unhappy. He moved his lips and said an insignificant explanation: "Don't think too much. Mingyue moved here to take care of you."
Shen Zhichu couldn't control his emotions, his eyes revealing contempt and ridicule. Xia Mingyue was suffering from a lack of blood at that time, yet he still came to take care of her?
She saw clearly what kind of person Xia Mingyue was four years ago. She had no good feelings towards that kind of woman, but since Li Jingshen wanted her to move in, then let her move in.
Chen Zhichu felt relieved that she wasn't moving anymore. She put the things she had packed that morning back in their original places. Just as she was about to throw the unnecessary wedding photo into the utility room, Li Jingshen came over and took the wedding photo from her. He looked at it thoughtfully and said, "Hang the photo on the headboard of the bed in the bedroom. I'll go find some nails."
Without asking Shen Zhichu whether he agreed or not, he went straight to the bedroom and used a ruler to mark the position.
Shen Zhichu leaned against the wall and looked at Li Jingshen's busy back and said, "Li Jingshen, aren't you afraid that Xia Mingyue will see this wedding photo and make trouble with you?"
Li Jingshen didn't seem to care. He didn't even pause as he hammered the nails. He turned his back to Shen Zhichu and said, "Mingyue is different from you."
Shen Zhichu sneered and couldn't help but said sarcastically, "Then she is really generous. She can tolerate the person she likes being with other women all day long." It is unclear whether this remark was a satire on Xia Mingyue or himself, or both.
Then she changed the subject and said, "She and I are indeed different. At least Xia Mingyue still likes you now, but I don't like you anymore."
No one likes to torture themselves by liking someone who is not loyal.
