Chapter 47 Private Stash



Wang Heng didn't expect Sun Lifang to be so decisive. After explaining his purpose to the village chief, the village chief was also stunned.

Buy a house? Buy one here?

"Yes, buy it here."

Sun Lifang nodded with a smile. If she hadn't come to Wang Heng's house for dinner, she wouldn't have thought of this.

There are no banks nearby, so the village chief told her to bring her documents tomorrow and go to the land administration bureau to complete the change of registration, notarize it, and pay the fees.

"That's the decision already?" Wang Heng was dumbfounded. He thought it would take some more time to negotiate. When did Sun Lifang become so decisive, especially in a place like this?

"Should you tell your family?"

Wang Heng cautioned, "Eight thousand yuan is not a small amount."

That's two years' salary.

Sun Lifang thought for a moment and said, "That's right, I'll call him to let him know."

Zhou Xinya peeked into the doorway, trying to see what was inside.

She transformed back into that wild, untamed girl. Sun Lifang waved to her, "Let's call Dad and talk." Mainly to report their itinerary.

Sun Lifang hasn't touched the 90,000 yuan first prize from the last banquet, so this 8,000 yuan is just a drop in the ocean.

Zhou Xinya yawned listlessly, "Mom, when are we going home?"

Normally she would be in bed by this time, but today she skipped her afternoon nap and played all night, so she's very sleepy now that she has some free time.

The little girl lay on Sun Lifang's lap and closed her eyes. The call connected, and the person on the other end seemed surprised to hear from her so late. Sun Lifang spoke very quickly about buying a house.

Zhou Yunshi asked in surprise, "Why buy it there?"

Judging from his wife's tone, it seemed like she had already decided to buy the house, rather than discussing it with him.

But why was there no prior warning? Buying a house is such a big deal, and they just bought it without any warning.

Thinking about the nursing home flyer his wife had shown him at noon that day, Zhou Yunshi felt a sense of loss of control.

That must have been prepared beforehand; even if Chen Yan hadn't caused trouble, she would have found an opportunity to bring it out.

But when did my wife become so bold?

Sun Lifang repeated her reasons.

"I saw it suddenly and thought it looked pretty good, so I decided to buy it," she added.

This time, there was a long silence on the other end, with only the sound of breathing.

Sudden?

Zhou Yunshi didn't believe Sun Lifang's explanation. He asked, "How much?"

"Fifteen thousand."

Sun Lifang reported an extra 7,000 yuan in one go, saving herself 7,000 yuan as a secret stash of money.

Zhou Yunshi's attitude was within her expectations; the amount was firmly fixed and was within his acceptable limit.

"Going back? I'll have someone pick you up." It's already 9:30. Although Haicheng is bustling, there are always some uncertainties at night. Zhou Yunshi pretended that Sun Lifang was unaware of those dark corners.

Before Sun Lifang could speak, the little one in her arms, drooling, woke up, rubbing his eyes sleepily, and asked in a muffled voice, "Is that Daddy?"

Sun Lifang handed her the phone.

The little girl pressed her face against the microphone, chatting about random things.

Speaking of which, Zhou Yunshi was patient enough to accompany her, something Sun Lifang felt she couldn't do. Zhou Xinya's thinking was wildly imaginative, and she was always asking questions, practically a walking encyclopedia of whys.

"Dad, this place is so much fun! Mom said the place she wants to buy is also very pretty. Can we come and stay here every holiday?"

Zhou Yunshi naturally agreed to his daughter's request. Zhou Xinya then said, "Mom said today that she wants to buy three houses, one for me, one for the baby, and one for Mom and Dad. But I don't think that's a good idea. I want us to live together."

The child's words were full of innocence, and Sun Lifang looked at her daughter speechlessly.

How did she overhear her conversation with Mrs. Tong?

"The driver will take us there later..." Sun Lifang was about to tell him not to worry when the other end suddenly changed the subject, asking, "Has Lu Hua contacted you again?"

Lu Hua?

The one who wants to have her tell fortunes

Brother Long hasn't returned yet, so those guys don't dare to make any big moves. As for Lu Hua asking her to help predict good or bad fortune...

Sun Lifang was on the verge of tears; she had truly bitten off more than she could chew this time.

"Something might happen in the next couple of days, so don't go running around anymore," Zhou Yunshi said seriously.

Sun Lifang was taken aback. "What's wrong? What is it?"

The police are keeping an eye on Brother Long's incident, and Lu Hua also has some connections. Not long ago, I heard that Boss Li was going to send his children to study in Singapore. Once they pass through customs, those people won't be able to cause any trouble.

“It’s not about Brother Long.” Zhou Yunshi said in a low voice, “It’s about Lu Hua. She touched that thing. Don’t have any contact with her in the future. If anything happens, tell me.”

He emphasized, "No matter how kind you are, we have to take care of ourselves; it was her own choice."

Did you choose it yourself?

Sun Lifang felt a chill in her heart.

In other words, Lu Hua put himself in the shoes of Kong Xiang and cooperated with her.

What is all this?

"Don't get involved in her affairs anymore. The child has been safely sent abroad."

Zhou Yunshi's voice was flat. He had seen a lot of business tricks. It was not uncommon in this circle for him to control others, get them involved in drugs, and then urge them to do some illegal things, swindling them out of their fortunes.

Gambling, prostitution, and drugs—if you get involved with even two of these, your life is over.

Not to mention that Brother Long also owns a casino.

Sun Lifang dared not think further, as this was the first time Zhou Yunshi had told her these things.

Upon reflection, he recalled that in his past life, his whole family went out to play and passed through a small alley. Suddenly, a homeless man lying at the entrance of the alley called out Zhou Yunshi's name and staggered over.

Zhou Yunshi told them to wait outside, then went in and gave him a few hundred yuan to send him away.
