Chapter 517 Planning to Live Together

Chen Bingzhi was at a loss for words. Why did she look so serious, like she was discussing a business deal?

Can marriage, a matter of love, be discussed like a business transaction?

Okay, since she likes to talk about it this way...

He already has an idea.

"Okay, I can agree to that, but you have to agree to one thing in return."

"Well, you said."

"Look, we're already married, shouldn't we give each other a chance?"

Song Qin narrowed her eyes. "What do you mean?"

"What I mean is we should live together..."

"Pah! You wish! I can tell you're a wicked little devil."

"No, you misunderstood. I mean living in a house like family, but each of us has our own room."

Song Qin: "Living together but not in the same room?"

"Yes, let's live together first to get to know each other and see if we can live under the same roof. If we live under the same roof but our lifestyles are too different, making it impossible for us to live together, then we're really not suitable for each other, right?"

Song Qin took a deep breath and nodded.

"But both the apartment you rented and the apartment I rented are one-bedroom apartments, so what should we do?"

"That's easy. I'll find a two-bedroom apartment, and we'll move together."

Song Qin frowned and did not respond.

Chen Bingzhi: "If you don't agree to my proposal, I won't agree to yours either. I'll take the marriage certificate and go out to hand out wedding candy right now."

Song Qin: “…”

"Alright, let's find a place to live first."

Finally, he relented, and Chen Bingzhi went out to look for a house that very day.

They're going to live together, and the place they live in can't be bad; they need to find a nice new house.

The apartment complex where Lin Yuyao lives was only handed over last year; it's all new buildings, but I don't know if there are any vacant apartments for rent.

By the way, Sister Zhou lives in that neighborhood, and it's a two-bedroom apartment. Go ask Sister Zhou.

Chen Bingzhi ran downstairs and told Zhou Jing that he wanted to rent a room, specifically the type of apartment she owned, and asked if there were any available.

"Weren't you renting a place just fine? Why do you suddenly want to move?"

"The landlord wants to take the house back and live in it himself."

"Then just buy an apartment nearby. You're not short of money, young master."

Chen Bingzhi smiled and said, "Sister Zhou, you're right. I'll have to buy one when a new apartment complex opens up around here next year. I need to find a place to live now, so I'd appreciate it if you could help me ask around."

Zhou Jing nodded.

"You want a two-bedroom apartment?"

"Yes."

"Why would you need a two-bedroom apartment if you live alone?"

“My family sometimes comes to visit me, and it’s inconvenient for them to go back too late, so they might stay for a while.”

"Okay, I'll ask for you."

"Oh, thank you."

Zhou Jing agreed, but then felt something was off.

Isn't his family from the local area? It's not far from the city center if you drive, and he can go back home if it gets too late. Why does he have to stay overnight?

Of course, they have their own ideas.

Since she had already agreed, she didn't think about it any further.

After she got off work, she went to ask for help.

Although there is no owners' group now, there is still a community circle of its own.

It's very convenient to ask the older women in the community who wear red armbands for any questions.

She went to ask, and it really was there.

“There’s an apartment over there in the same building. The owner originally bought it to live in. It was renovated last year, and after living there for more than three months, they were transferred to another job. The family wasn’t well-off to begin with, and they had borrowed a lot of money to buy the apartment, so they were thinking of renting it out to collect some rent and pay off their debts.”

"Oh, the rent must be expensive."

"That's right, they renovated it to owner-occupied standards. The walls are painted a bright white, and they even have tiled floors. There's a bed, a wardrobe, lights, a TV, a fan, and a washing machine. Everything is top-notch, so it must have been expensive."

"How much does a two-bedroom apartment cost per month?"

"Fifty."

hiss!

"This is too expensive."

"It's expensive, and it hasn't been rented out for more than half a year."

Upon hearing how expensive it was, Zhou Jing didn't know what to say.

The neighborhood committee auntie asked, "Zhou Jing, do you want to rent it?"

"No, I asked for a friend. Yours is too expensive, they might not necessarily want it."

"There's nothing we can do about it. They said that anyone who's willing to spend that much money must be a person of good character and wouldn't mess with his house."

Zhou Jing nodded. "It's normal for them to have concerns since it's a new house."

"That's right."

Zhou Jing: "I'll ask my friend tomorrow and see if he wants it. If he decides to take it, I'll contact you again."

“Okay, they left the key to the room with me before they left. If your friend wants to rent it, just let me know.”

"Okay, thank you."

As soon as Zhou Jing left, the older woman called her back.

"Zhou Jing, wait a minute."

"what happened?"

"The couple who live in the building across from you, the one surnamed Lin, they've gone on a long trip, right?"

"Yes what's the matter?"

The woman suddenly realized, clicked her tongue twice, and shook her head.

This left Zhou Jing completely confused.

"what happened?"

The older woman looked around and, seeing that no one was around, asked Zhou Jing in a low voice, "Miss Lin, are you unable to have children?"

Zhou Jing: "..."

"What nonsense are you talking about? Who said that?"

"Regardless of who said it, I feel it's probably true. The young couple are quite healthy and have been married for almost two years, and Miss Lin's belly hasn't shown any signs of pregnancy."

Zhou Jing was speechless. She remembered Lin Yuyao saying that they had been quite busy in the past year or two, so they were not planning to have children for the time being.

Now that Xiao Fu isn't busy anymore, they should have a child.

"They just don't have time to have children, don't listen to other people's nonsense."

The older woman disagreed, thinking to herself, "Does having a baby depend on whether you have time or not?"

The baby is already inside, and there's no need for someone to feed them separately, so how can there be no time?

They have money; they can pay someone to take care of the baby without much trouble.

In this day and age, you can only have one child, so how come you don't have time?

In their generation, every family had five, six, seven, or eight children, and no one ever complained about not having enough time to have more.

"This isn't just a rumor. A few days ago, someone saw Ms. Lin at the hospital treating infertility."

Zhou Jing was shocked. "What? Really?"

"Really? Otherwise, why would there be a sudden rumor that she can't have children?"

Zhou Jing was shocked and thought, "Impossible, right?"

But there's no smoke without fire. Since someone saw it... No, she has to ask.

But... how do I bring this up?

If it's true, wouldn't her asking this question hurt Yuyao's feelings?

But if it's fake, she can't let people spread rumors about Yuyao like that.

"Who said that?" Zhou Jing asked seriously.

The older woman said, "Don't ask who said it, just tell me if it's true or not."

Zhou Jing: "Don't talk nonsense, that's impossible."

"Oh dear, I didn't know either. The couple must have gone to another city for medical treatment. Tsk tsk, you know, no one can have a perfect life."
