Chapter 915: Put the House Under Both Our Names…
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
The reason why Pei Huai had set the meeting time for 40 minutes today was to coordinate with his fiancée.
Both sides would end at the same time.
During the meeting just now, Pei Huai’s phone rang a few times.
He turned off the video call and took out his phone to take a look.
As expected, it was not from his fiancée.
Just as he was about to put it down, he noticed the account that sent the new message again.
It was a public account.
“The Home of the p.o.o.p-picker”
It seemed that the day after was the anniversary, so there would be more products than usual.
15% off everything. His fiancée would like it very much.
Exclusive cat toys, a fine comb that could sweep away lice, a cat bed, a water dispenser, and a fully automatic bowl that could regularly ration cat food.
As expected, cats had more specialized tools than ducks.
His slender fingers scrolled down bit by bit until the end. There was no longer any new content. Pei Huai’s rhythmic movements suddenly stopped!
Realizing that he had just browsed through the pet shop’s public account with relish for nearly ten minutes, the man’s face darkened!
He threw the phone back onto the table and turned back into the serious workaholic CEO!
That night, Su Ji stayed over at the apartment.
Downstairs, Pei Song and his wife were also there. They had arranged to have dinner together. The nutritious dinner that Pei Huai had originally prepared for Su Ji had inexplicably turned into a mandarin duck hotpot.
As usual, Pei Huai and Pei Song ate the mushroom soup while Su Ji and Cao Zhuzhu ate the spicy bottom of the pot.
At the end of the meal, Aunt Gong happened to go out to shop, so no one cleared the table.
Pei Song glanced at the tea bowls and wine gla.s.ses on the table, then looked at his third brother across from him. “Pei Huai, you’re a germaphobe. Can you stand not cleaning up immediately after eating?”
Pei Huai tapped the corner of his lips with a tissue. “No.”
Pei Song knew it. He generously placed the napkin on the table. “Let us help you clean up.”
Put both their names on the house.
Pei Huai glanced at him and smiled. “Thank you.”
“We’re family. Don’t be polite.” Pei Song said.
However, what he meant was that they would stay behind to help clean up. He could help out or something.
However, when he carried the tray into the kitchen, he realized that besides Cao Zhuzhu…these two ancestors didn’t follow them in at all!
He went out to take a look.
Pei Huai brought Su Ji to sit on the sofa and turned on the television to ask what Su Ji wanted to watch.
Su Ji met Pei Song’s half-narrowed eyes and asked, “should we go over and help?”
Pei Huai began to choose the movie. “We’re family. There’s no need to be polite.”
“Oh,” Su Ji replied and looked away. “I want to watch a horror movie.” Pei Song:
He was pulled back into the kitchen by Cao Zhuzhu, who hooked her leg backward and closed the kitchen door.
“Don’t be so petty. She’s pregnant, and you still want her to help you wash the dishes?” Cao Zhuzhu was very protective of her friend.
“Alright.” Pei Song thought about it and agreed. He rolled up his sleeves in resignation. “Pregnant women do have special privileges.”
He turned on the faucet and threw the leftovers in the plates and bowls into the leftovers disposal channel. He rinsed them briefly before putting them into the dishwashing machine.
He had been living with Cao Zhuzhu recently, so he had a certain understanding of being a wash a.s.sistant.
After busying himself for a while, he glanced at Cao Zhuzhu, who was handling the hotpot pot. She was quite virtuous.
He suddenly curled his lips and wiped his hands dry with a few tissues. He walked behind his girlfriend and leaned close to her, placing his hands on the kitchen counter beside her.
Cao Zhuzhu felt it the moment he got closer. Her hands paused for a moment. She heard Pei Song whisper into her ear, “do you want to have special privileges too?”
Cao Zhuzhu turned around and glanced at him. After she understood what he meant…she raised her elbow and gave him a slap. “If you’re not working, get up.
Don’t block my path.”
Pei Song stood up straight and laughed cynically.
Cao Zhuzhu could not be bothered with him. She put the hot pot into the sink and calmed herself down. When she felt that her face was no longer red, she spoke again in a serious tone, “I’m thinking of buying a house recently. You have experience in this area. Can you recommend a neighborhood?”
‘ Pei Song looked at her for a few seconds and frowned. “What do you mean? Didn’t I ask someone to get someone to do the legal stuff? They didn’t contact you?”
After Xie Lingyu returned to her hometown, Pei Song made arrangements.
He transferred all his fixed a.s.sets and large investments to Cao Zhuzhu so that he could show his sincerity to his future mother-in-law.
Cao Zhuzhu said yes.
moreover, tney were In contact every two or tnree days.
It made her unable to tell which was the scam call and which was from Pei Song’s side.
Later, Cao Zhuzhu found the trick and could distinguish the two because…even scam calls do not dare to give such a hugh number!
“Don’t put those houses under my name,” she said with some disdain. “It will affect my qualifications for the first house. The down payment will be high.”
Pei Song said, “stop fooling around. If you don’t like any of my houses, tell me which one you like. Why do you need to buy it yourself?”
Cao Zhuzhu turned off the tap, turned around, and looked at him with her clear eyes. “What’s yours is yours. My mother is just testing you. She won’t want what’s yours, and neither will I. The pay for the variety show this time is quite high. In addition to the previous ones, it’s not a problem for me to pay the down payment and buy a house from a similar neighborhood. I want to buy it myself. This way, I’ll feel at ease. When I bring my mother to A City in the future, she’ll also feel at ease.”
She rarely spoke as clearly as she did just now. Pei Song could tell that she had thought about this for a long time and she was adamant. Pei Song touched his chin and thought for a moment. “Alright.”
Cao Zhuzhu’s eyes lit up.
“What’s your budget?” He asked.
Cao Zhuzhu said, “I can’t afford the expensive ones. A down payment of three million is more or less acceptable.”
Pei Song really did not understand this price. It was a blind spot in his Imowledge, but his tone was very patient. “I’ll ask around and give you a reply tomorrow.”
Cao Zhuzhu’s heart felt warm. “Thank you.”
“Don’t be in a hurry to thank me.” Pei Song’s lips curled into a wicked smile again. “You can buy a house, but I have a request.”
Cao Zhuzhu asked, “what?”
Pei Song said, “I don’t object to you being independent and self-reliant, but I can’t bear to see you scrimp and save and suffer. The down payment of three million you can pay on your own and the rest is mine. You can pay me back monthly in the future. I won’t charge you any interest.”
Cao Zhuzhu: “…”
Seeing her hesitation, Pei Song took a step closer to her. “This is the only condition. Do you agree?”
Cao Zhuzhu was a person who knew how to be vigilant in times of peace. Although the fees for these few jobs were good and had given her the idea of buying a house, who knew if she would wake up one day and no longer be popular? She might end up like Zhu Yiyi.
If that was the case, the loan was indeed risky.
Moreover, she also knew that the second master of the Pei family might seem easy to talk to, but he would not change his mind easily.
Cao Zhuzhu thought about it and finally nodded in agreement.
“That’s fine too.” But she also had a condition.. ‘We’ll have both our names on the house, and we’ll split the house equally…”
