The detached house is larger than the family compound where Lin Yuxi currently lives, with two more rooms and larger front and back yards. It's also quieter here, located at the very back of the community, away from the road, and with good greenery, making it suitable for retirement.
Stepping out of the community, there's a park and tourist attractions right outside. Crossing the park leads to a commercial street, making life very convenient. There's also a school right at the entrance of the community.
To make purchasing easier, Lin Yuxi bought it nearby.
All the furnishings in the house had to be purchased one by one. There were still chairs that had been stored there for several years, but a few pieces of furniture were missing.
Moreover, Mr. Lin is getting old and doesn't like reading anymore. Now he prefers to play drinking games and write calligraphy in the park.
In the blink of an eye, more than half a month has passed. The decoration of the detached courtyard is almost complete. After another six months of vacancy, it will be ready to move in.
When she returned to school, Pei Danxue hugged her and began to tell her about the suffering she had endured from blind dates.
"Xixi, you don't know, last time I went on a blind date, it's a good thing you didn't go, otherwise you would have felt the urge to beat up that guy too."
When the two of them got together, Pei Danxue could hardly contain her hatred for that man.
“Especially when he said that girls don’t need such a high degree, and that as doctors they will have touched countless men’s hands and seen countless men’s bodies, I immediately threw a pot of hot water in his face.”
“My mom said she never expected him to be this kind of person. He looks so polite and gentle on the surface. She even said that I would be better off as a teacher than a doctor. That really made me furious.”
Pei Danxue poured out her grievances, but she didn't forget to take the toys out of the drawer.
"Here, take this. It's a toy I bought for Siyan."
Lin Yuxi didn't stand on ceremony, "I'm buying furniture recently. My grandpa and dad are planning to move here for the Chinese New Year. Come over for a meal when they move."
"Okay, okay." Pei Danxue nodded quickly.
Before class even started, some gossip was already circulating in the classroom.
"I heard that Sang Yelin is dating that girl from the performing arts troupe."
"It's normal for them to be together. After all, free love is popular now, and they're both not young anymore. What's so strange about them dating?"
"I'm not dating anyone yet, and I'm almost thirty."
The classroom was filled with scattered gossip. Before Pei Danxue could even join in the gossip, Sang Yelin walked in from outside the classroom.
"I'm still single and don't have a boyfriend. They're all classmates. If you're curious, you can just ask me."
The students in the classroom exchanged bewildered glances, not expecting that the person in question had overheard their gossip, and embarrassed expressions appeared on their faces.
Lin Yuxi didn't pay attention to these things. Today, she tied her hair into a ponytail, then twisted it into a bun, loosely hanging on her head. She propped her cheek up with her left hand, twirled a pen in her right hand, and chatted and laughed with Pei Danxue like little girls.
Sang Yelin walked past the two of them without looking at them, but he couldn't help but feel a slight ripple in his heart.
night.
Gu Chen drove to the school.
It's too cold outside, and I'm worried that Lin Yuxi will get cold at school, so I've decided to pick her up and drop her off every day after autumn starts.
Despite the short period of separation, their relationship actually warmed up considerably.
"I brought you a cup of hot black tea, have a taste. There's also a freshly made scallion pancake. The detached house isn't far from the school. When Mom moves here in a few days, you can stay here too, which will make things much more convenient."
It only takes about forty minutes to drive from here to the new house. The family compound is in a remote area, around the fourth or fifth ring road, which is why it takes so long.
"Let's move here after the New Year."
