As the renovation project commenced, the construction site was a hive of activity. The workers, like master craftsmen, meticulously crafted this temple of love. Ling Yichen and Jun Moran personally visited the site daily, overseeing and guiding every detail, much like generals commanding a vast army, ensuring that every aspect perfectly aligned with their ideal blueprint. They patiently communicated with the workers, rigorously overseeing and carefully guiding them on everything from the selection and identification of building materials to the angle of each brick and the grain of every piece of wood. Watching the workers skillfully wield their tools, the sounds of hammers, chainsaws, and cement mixing blending into a vibrant and hopeful symphony of construction, Ling Yichen and Jun Moran were filled with anticipation for their future life. Occasionally, they would exchange a smile, a smile brimming with unspoken sweetness and peace of mind, as if they could already envision the heartwarming scene upon completion, touching the very fabric of happiness.
Construction was far from smooth sailing; one problem after another arose, like trials deliberately set by fate. A sudden downpour lasted for days, turning the construction site into a muddy mess. Newly built sections of the walls were washed away, developing minor cracks, and the foundation was at risk of water accumulation. Ling Yichen gazed at the devastation, his brow furrowed, a flicker of worry in his eyes, but it vanished quickly, replaced by unwavering determination. Jun Mo Ran gently patted his shoulder, offering silent comfort and support, and the two quickly discussed solutions with the construction team.
They urgently deployed high-powered water pumps, working day and night to drain the water from the foundation; they also brought in construction experts to carefully inspect the wall cracks and develop repair plans. Ling Yichen, disregarding the rain soaking his clothes, personally helped carry sandbags to build makeshift dikes to prevent further flooding; Jun Mo Ran moved among the workers, offering warm ginger soup and dry towels, reminding everyone to be careful, his words full of concern. In this battle against the severe weather, they worked together without hesitation, the lights on the construction site burning brightly throughout the night, illuminating their busy and determined figures.
After many twists and turns, the house renovation project is finally nearing completion. As the last rays of sunlight fall upon the newly renovated courtyard, the scenery is as beautiful as a fairytale castle. The ancient locust tree is even more lush and verdant, as if it has been infused with new vitality. Its branches and leaves rustle in the breeze, as if joyfully singing a song of blessing. The flowers in the courtyard are in full bloom, and their rich fragrance permeates every inch of the air, attracting butterflies to dance and bees to buzz busily. The vibrant scene is intoxicating.
Pushing open the vermilion doors, everything inside was even more perfect than imagined. The living room was bright and spacious, with sunlight streaming through the floor-to-ceiling windows, casting golden shadows on the gleaming wooden floors. Books on the shelves were neatly arranged, exuding a faint scent of ink. The sofa was just the right amount of softness, as if warmly inviting its owner to sit down. The kitchen was spotless, with brand-new cookware gleaming. A bouquet of freshly picked flowers on the island counter added a touch of elegance to this warm and inviting space. The bedroom was tranquil and cozy, with fluffy and clean bedding. The unique decorative paintings on the walls created a lazy and comfortable atmosphere for relaxation. Drawing back the curtains revealed a dreamlike scene where the city lights and the starry night sky reflected each other. In the study, the desk was sturdy and heavy, with various books and manuscripts neatly arranged. When working at the desk, the soft scratching of the pen on the paper could be clearly heard, as if inspiration was about to burst forth at any moment.
Ling Yichen and Jun Mozhan strolled hand in hand through the rooms, their eyes filled with amazement and emotion, as if they were stepping into this world for the first time. Every detail reflected their hard work and love; at this moment, all the hardships and sweat had transformed into joy and sweetness.
"Mo Ran, we finally have a home of our own." Ling Yichen's voice trembled slightly, filled with barely suppressed excitement, and his eyes were slightly red. He gripped Jun Mo Ran's hand tightly, as if he wanted to hold this happiness firmly in his palm.
Jun Mo Ran's eyes were also glistening with tears, but a happy smile played on his lips as he softly replied, "Yes, Yi Chen, from now on, this will be our haven, holding all our joys and sorrows." With that, he gently leaned on Ling Yi Chen's shoulder, and the two stood there quietly, immersed in this hard-won happiness.
Every day after moving in felt like being immersed in honey. In the mornings, the first rays of sunlight playfully peeked through the curtains, waking the two of them as they slept in each other's arms. They would get up together, don comfortable loungewear, and head to the kitchen. Amidst the clatter of pots and pans, they would prepare a nutritious breakfast. The aroma of fried eggs, the creamy scent of hot milk, and the wheat fragrance of bread mingled together, filling the entire house and setting the tone for a day full of energy.
In their leisure time, they might snuggle on the sofa together, watching an old movie, laughing heartily or silently shedding tears as the plot unfolds, occasionally exchanging a few words about their viewing experience and sharing moments that touched their hearts. Or they might stroll to the study, one working on their desk while the other quietly keeps them company, researching and offering hot tea, their understanding unspoken. When they encounter creative blocks, they go to the courtyard together, tending to the flowers and pruning the branches, letting the fragrance of the soil and the vitality of the greenery dispel the gloom in their hearts, and inspiration often arrives unexpectedly.
During holidays and festivals, the place becomes even more lively. Relatives and friends flock here, and tables and chairs are set up in the courtyard. Everyone sits around, enjoying the delicacies prepared by Ling Yichen and Jun Moran, sharing stories of their lives. Laughter echoes throughout the courtyard, lingering for a long time. Children play and chase among the flowers, adults chat and laugh, and the house is brightly lit, warm and cozy. Deep family affection and friendship converge and sublimate at this moment, making this loving little home shine even brighter.
This shared property is not only a dwelling built of bricks, stones, and wood, but also a solid fortress for Ling Yichen and Jun Moran's love, and a cradle for their dreams. Here, they will brave the trials of time and the disturbances of the outside world, hand in hand writing their own long and happy story, until the end of time.
