Chapter 108 This house now belongs to you.
A ding sound.
The elevator doors opened.
Li Mai pushed Zhou Songyan aside and walked out first.
Zhou Songyan slowly followed her, looking unsatisfied.
While Peng Zixu was driving a train, he was still strolling like a tortoise.
This is outrageous!
Zhou Songyan stayed at Li Mai's house for another night, and went to work the next morning after eating the delicious breakfast Li Mai made.
Before joining the company, Li Mai called Zheng Anze again.
It's working now.
"Brother, you've been kidnapped? Where have you been taken? Northern Myanmar?"
Zheng Anze: "..."
"Could they really have been kidnapped? Mom's making a scene and she's going to call the police."
Zheng Anze: "Don't be sarcastic. I had an urgent matter to attend to, so I left."
Li Mai curled her lips slightly: "Looks like you were in a real hurry, sending you away on a rocket and even turning off your phone."
“Li Mai, do you have to talk like that? I really have something urgent to attend to. Please help take care of Mom these next few days. I’ll come back as soon as I’m done.”
Li Mai: "I don't care what's wrong with you or whether you deliberately dumped people on me. I've hired two caregivers, and we'll split the caregiver fees."
"You've hired another caregiver?"
"Otherwise, I have to go to work."
"Can't you take care of it yourself and save some money?"
"Hehe, am I trying to save you money? I'll get my salary docked if I take time off."
"You don't need to take leave. You can work during the day and just help out at the hospital in the evening."
"Sorry, I'm not made of iron, I can't do that."
Li Mai, unable to bear it any longer, hung up the phone.
...
Just before lunchtime, Li Mai received a call from Cheng Cheng.
"Mom, Grandma and I are downstairs at your company. Please come down quickly."
Li Mai was somewhat surprised: "Why are you here?"
Grandma said she's going to take you somewhere.
Without thinking much about it, Li Mai packed her things and went downstairs.
Chengcheng saw her and rushed over: "Mom."
Li Mai smiled and hugged him.
She missed her son terribly after not seeing him for a day.
Li Mai turned to look at Grandma Zhou: "Grandma, where are you taking me? Is there something you need?"
Grandma Zhou kept everyone in suspense: "There is something I need to take care of. Let's go, let's go."
Li Mai got into the car with the old lady.
A bodyguard drove them there.
Grandma Zhou said, "Let's go eat something first, fill our stomachs, and then go over."
“Okay,” Li Mai said with a smile.
The three of them found a restaurant for lunch and then got back into the car.
The car drove for a while and then stopped in front of a villa.
Grandma Zhou got out of the car first: "Granddaughter-in-law, come down quickly."
Li Mai led Chengcheng out of the car.
Sun Yuanjie stood at the villa entrance and respectfully greeted, "Madam, Miss Li, Young Master."
Li Mai suppressed her surprise and greeted Sun Yuanjie, "Secretary Sun."
Chengcheng also greeted him politely, "Hello, Uncle Sun."
Grandma Zhou smiled and said, "Secretary Sun, thank you for your hard work."
Sun Yuanjie: "This is what I should do."
Sun Yuanjie handed a briefcase to Li Mai: "Ms. Li, Mr. Zhou has already transferred this villa to your name. This house now belongs to you."
"Here are the property certificate and related documents. I've also written down the door code on a piece of paper."
"The house is already furnished, with all the furniture, appliances, and bedding provided. You and the young master can move in anytime."
Sun Yuanjie kept talking and finished speaking in one breath.
President Zhou instructed us to find a way to get Miss Li to move in.
He's under immense pressure.
Li Mai took the file, opened it, and saw the property information on it; it was indeed in her name.
Unexpectedly, Zhou Songyan wasn't just talking; he actually transferred the house to her name.
Her dream was to buy her own house, and now that she suddenly has one, she can't be happy.
Grandma Zhou carefully observed Li Mai's expression.
However, he did not see any happiness on Li Mai's face.
Sun Yuanjie: "Ms. Li, I have the phone number of a moving company here. How about I have someone help you move your things over after you get off work?"
Li Mai: "Not for now."
Sun Yuanjie: "..."
He knew it wouldn't be that easy.
Grandma Zhou pulled Li Mai inside: "Granddaughter-in-law, take a look at the decoration and layout first."
Li Mai looked at it.
The house is luxuriously decorated and exquisitely furnished; it's beautiful and cozy, just the style she likes.
Grandma Zhou then pulled her upstairs.
There are five bedrooms on the second floor.
Grandma Zhou pulled her to the master bedroom.
The master bedroom is very large, with floor-to-ceiling windows and a walk-in closet.
Grandma Zhou then led her to another room.
It's a children's room, decorated in a way that a boy would like.
Chengcheng's eyes lit up with joy.
They also went to the third floor, which is half gym and the other half sunroom.
Sun Yuanjie then said, "President Zhou said this place is for you to grow some flowers and plants, and that you don't need to decorate it; you can decorate it according to your own preferences."
"In addition, the courtyard on the first floor has been built. Mr. Zhou said that Miss Li likes to grow vegetables, so that's where you can grow your vegetables."
Li Mai's thoughts drifted away.
Five years ago, she leaned against Zhou Songyan and dreamed about the future: "Zhou Songyan, let's work hard and save money to buy a house. I want to buy a house on the first floor. Everyone else doesn't like the first floor, but I like it because the first floor has a yard."
“I can plant some flowers and plants in the yard on the first floor, and also some vegetables. Vegetables sold outside are sprayed with a lot of pesticides, so it’s safe and reassuring to grow them myself. Oh, and I also want to grow some strawberries, because the strawberries bought outside don’t taste like strawberries.”
Zhou Songyan laughed at her: "Your thinking is like that of an old man or woman. Only old men and women like the first floor."
She chuckled and popped a strawberry into Zhou Songyan's mouth: "Maybe I'm just old-fashioned."
Li Mai snapped out of her thoughts, her eyes slightly red.
Back on the first floor.
Sun Yuanjie then asked, "Miss Li, are you moving today?"
Grandma Zhou also stared at her expectantly.
Li Mai: "Let's wait a bit."
She liked the house, but she was also very uneasy.
Perhaps it was because the house came too easily that she felt uneasy.
From childhood, she was used to relying on herself for everything.
She was a little unaccustomed to this kind of windfall.
Grandma Zhou: "Granddaughter-in-law, when are you moving? I'll come and help you."
Li Mai smiled and said, "Grandma, how could I dare to ask you to help me move? Let's talk about it later, I haven't decided yet."
“Granddaughter-in-law, don’t feel guilty. This is what Songyan should give you. If you ask me, one house is not enough. You should have ten or eight. You gave birth to the eldest grandson of our Zhou family. You are a meritorious person.”
"Grandma, I didn't give birth to Chengcheng for these reasons."
“I know, I know, Grandma knows you’re an ambitious child, but why wouldn’t you take something that’s free? Hurry up and move in, cancel your rented place.”
Grandma Zhou held her hand and said, "Now that you've moved here, I can come and stay with you for a few days now and then. Grandma likes you very much."
Li Maiwan: "Grandma, let me think about it."
Grandma Zhou didn't know what else to say; to try to persuade her further would be asking too much.
