Chapter 613

Nangong Beiying tossed and turned, looking at the moon outside the window. She thought of Xuexue and Chenchen, wondering what the two naughty girls were doing and whether they missed her.

As Nangong Beiying’s thoughts wandered, she drifted off to sleep without realizing it. In her dreams, she saw her two best friends playing and frolicking together, a sweet smile spreading across her sleeping face, quite unlike her usual cold and indifferent demeanor.

Chu Molin’s family finally arrived at the Imperial Capital at dawn, and Xiao Qi led them directly to the courtyard house he had purchased.

“Boss, this is the house I just bought. You can live here from now on. It’s close to the military school, so it’ll be convenient for you to commute.” Xiao Qi handed the keys to Chu Molin.

“How much did this house cost? I’ll give you the money.” Chu Molin asked as he took the keys.

“No need, I bought it in your wife’s name and paid for it with your dividends. Just know that you won’t have much money left for the next six months.” Xiao Qi knew Chu Molin’s character, so he wisely made the purchase under his wife’s name from the start.

Since Chu Molin was a soldier, it was inconvenient for him to handle such matters, so Qin Xue’s name had to be used.

“Alright, thank you.” Chu Molin felt reassured because he knew his wife had always wanted a house of their own. When they were in S Province, she had mentioned wanting to buy one, but they didn’t have enough money. Now that they were in the Imperial Capital, Xiao Qi’s actions were perfectly timed.

“Boss, we’re brothers; there’s no need for such formalities. See that house over there? That’s mine.” Xiao Qi pointed to a house in the same row as theirs.

“Aren’t you going home?” Chu Molin raised an eyebrow at him.

“No, I’m not. I’m always forced to go on blind dates when I’m home, which is no fun. I’d rather live here and be neighbors with you while also mooching some meals.” Xiao Qi didn’t want to live at home; could he even have peaceful days there? It was simply impossible.

“Fine, suit yourself. Have you arranged everything for the company?” Chu Molin decided to ask about business matters.

“I had someone arrange it as soon as I heard you were coming back. It should be ready; I’ll take a quick rest and then head over to check it out so we can start operating as soon as possible.” Xiao Qi trusted the person he assigned to do the job, so he was confident that everything would be handled well.

“Alright, you go rest. We’ll rest too and then go out at noon to buy some furniture.” Chu Molin thought they could handle other things later, but they needed to buy necessities for eating first.

“Okay, Boss, sister-in-law, you both should get some rest too. Let me know if you need anything. I’m going to get some rest as well; driving for so long really takes its toll.” After waving goodbye and helping the family move their luggage in, Xiao Qi left.

Qin Xue held her child as she looked around the courtyard, her heart feeling more at ease. They finally had a home of their own, and the courtyard was quite spacious; they could plant vegetables, flowers, and even a grapevine with a swing. She imagined sitting under the grapevine, sipping tea and enjoying the coolness of summer, it felt wonderful just thinking about it.

“What are you thinking about? You’re smiling so happily.” Chu Molin held their child with one arm and carried a suitcase with the other as he asked his wife.

“I really like it here.” Qin Xue looked at Chu Molin and smiled sweetly.

“I’m glad you like it. Let’s go inside, freshen up, and take a break. You look exhausted.” Chu Molin urged Qin Xue.

“Alright, even though I can’t make these plans come true now, I’ll take my time to plan for the future.” Qin Xue thought she had gotten ahead of herself since they had just arrived, and nothing was in place yet.

It would take some time to turn this place into their dream home.
