In fact, after handing over "Dream Building" to Wen Ying, Chen Tongfu did not travel far away to save the world, he was still in the Magic City.
Chen Tongfu just changed his job.
The job sometimes requires him to go out, but more often he works from home.
Regarding Chen Tongfu's "work from home" requirement, a man who likes to wear a stand-up collar polo shirt was somewhat dissatisfied: "It's okay for you to work from home, but at least you should move to a more convenient place. Right now, to get to your house, I have to go through all the relatives and friends. It's terrifying just thinking about it!"
Chen Tongfu looked surprised. "Have you ever thought that the reason I live in this house surrounded by neighbors is because I don't want people like you to come over?"
Is this hard to understand?!
Being willing to go back to work doesn’t mean you have to devote your entire life to work!
"You win."
The man in the polo shirt understood Chen Tongfu's attitude and gave him a thumbs-up. "Although I suspect you're burning bridges, I have no evidence."
You can't just detain the Xie family for a longer period of time just to force Chen Tongfu to make more progress.
While the case hasn't been thoroughly investigated, the Xie family has been cleared of suspicion, so there's no reason for anyone to let Xie Yuping "rest" any longer. The only member of the Xie family still holding onto freedom is Xie Jinghu... But keeping him locked up for a while longer wouldn't pose any threat to Old Chen, would it? Who knows, Old Chen might even be secretly grinning!
Chen Tongfu's work efficiency is not affected by where he works.
Late one night, while the neighbors were asleep, the man in the polo shirt brought a few young people to help Chen Tongfu maintain the office network. Chen Tongfu's request to "work from home" was approved by his superiors.
At the same time, two tenants in this old villa moved out and two new families moved in.
Aunt Wang reluctantly said goodbye to her old neighbor: "Why are you moving away so suddenly? It's so comfortable living here."
The old tenant was beaming: "My son got a place in the company's housing allocation! Although he still has to pay an additional fee, it's much cheaper than the extremely expensive houses outside... The company's houses don't even need renovations, so why bother paying extra rent?"
That's why I gave up the lease so quickly.
Aunt Wang was stunned.
Everyone was a neighbor and knew each other's situation. When Aunt Wang came to her senses, she quickly congratulated the old tenant: "That's great!"
The situation was similar for another neighbor who moved away.
The child in the family suddenly got a good new job interview. He felt that the old villa was too far from the new unit, so he urged his parents to move with him.
If they have to rent a house too, children would like their parents to live in a better house if they can afford the rent.
Children who find new jobs are quite filial!
Aunt Wang may feel lost, but there is no reason for her to stop her old neighbors from moving towards a better future.
As for the two new neighbors, Aunt Wang quickly found out their backgrounds: they were all ordinary office workers. Outsiders could not afford to buy houses in Shanghai, so of course they had to rent.
Speaking of which, Chen Tongfu doesn't seem like an outsider who can't afford to buy a house. For some reason, Chen Tongfu also rents a house in the old villa.
Aunt Wang felt very uncomfortable thinking that Chen Tongfu would suddenly move away one day.
"I have no plans to move."
Aunt Wang didn't believe Chen Tongfu's words completely.
Then Aunt Wang found that Chen Tongfu seemed serious. Not only did he not plan to move, he also bought some new things for the house.
Chen Tongfu placed several pots of lush green plants outside the window. Not only could Chen Tongfu appreciate them while standing inside the house, but the neighbors would also take a second look when passing by.
Chen Tongfu also bought a very comfortable recliner for his home.
Aunt Wang stared at the outer packaging carton for a long time. There were a few cursive letters on it, and it was a brand that Aunt Wang didn’t recognize!
Green plants, lounge chairs, and pillows.
Several beautiful and exquisite vases.
As the house became more and more exquisite, Zou Weijun began to frequent Chen Tongfu's house.
"Are you Xiao Chen's...girlfriend?"
Zou Weijun smiled at Aunt Wang, who was at a loss as to what to do.
——Xiao Chen is so lucky!
This time, Aunt Wang didn't need to publicize it specifically, the whole old house knew about Chen Tongfu's blessing.
Zou Weijun is so charming.
Xiao Chen, who can't even afford to buy a house, can actually have such a charming girlfriend. It really shows that you can't judge a book by its cover!
Even the most elegant people have shortcomings.
Zou Weijun can't cook.
Chen Tongfu could only cook the rice, and whether it tasted good or not was a matter of luck. Sometimes he'd just add the right amount of salt, and it would be just the right amount of salty. Other times, he'd mix salt and sugar, and the dish would be overly sweet.
Chen Tongfu and Zou Weijun fell into deep thought while looking at the dishes on the table.
Zou Weijun took two sips of water to dilute the taste in his mouth and suggested seriously, "Everyone has their own expertise. Let's leave the cooking to someone else."
Chen Tongfu nodded: "Okay!"
Chen Tongfu himself could eat something a little unpalatable, but he was reluctant to let Zou Weijun's stomach suffer.
But the current residence was originally where Chen Tongfu lived alone.
It’s okay to have Zou Weijun join us, she won’t be staying overnight for the time being.
If there is one more cook, it seems too crowded... Chen Tongfu now has two plans. Plan A is to move to a bigger house, and Plan B is to have meals delivered every day.
“It’s nice here, full of life.”
Zou Weijun said something casually, and Chen Tongfu gave up plan A and chose plan B.
The man in the polo shirt soon received Chen Tongfu's new request and was immediately amused: "Working from home is fine, but you also want us to provide work meals?!"
