She didn't expect Huo Shaoheng to actually ask about the house …
Gu Nianzhi felt very conflicted.
She really wanted to settle the house immediately so she could move all her things from Huo Shaoheng's place.
But did she need Huo Shaoheng to look at the house with her?
She wanted to break up with him, so was it really okay to follow him around like this?
Huo Shaoheng glanced at Gu Nianzhi and saw that her conflicted expression was written all over her face.
"Didn't you say it's a second-hand house? I'll help you check if it's safe. You're a young girl and don't know the place well. If you encounter bad neighbors … "Huo Shaoheng said seriously with a frown. He seemed very concerned about the security of the area.
Gu Nianzhi was speechless.
But after thinking about it carefully, it seemed like a good idea to ask Huo Shaoheng to help check if the surroundings of the house were safe.
After all, Huo Shaoheng was a professional in this area, and Gu Nianzhi didn't want to live next door to a group of unfriendly neighbors.
She hesitated for a while and looked down at her phone. "Will it affect your work? Aren't you very busy? "
"I'm not busy." Huo Shaoheng drove and looked at the surroundings of the school as he said nonchalantly, "Big Xiong and Little Ze have been promoted now, so I can leave a lot of things to them."
Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to rest assured …
He had to take care of the Special Operations Forces before he had time to comfort Gu Nianzhi.
He then glanced at Gu Nianzhi, but she turned to look out the window and said, "Ok, it's just around the corner up ahead. There's a Hepingli Precinct there. It looks okay. "
Huo Shaoheng turned the steering wheel. "You've been here before?"
"No."
"Then how do you know it's okay?"
Gu Nianzhi glared at him. "I saw it on the Internet. Is there anything that can't be seen on the Internet now? This kind of information about second-hand houses is everywhere. "
Huo Shaoheng didn't ask any more questions and drove to a small road near the precinct before stopping.
To look at second-hand houses, one had to contact the real estate agent or the owner before they could enter. Gu Nianzhi didn't know if she could contact them now.
She got out of the car with Huo Shaoheng first and walked around the precinct.
The houses here were about ten years old, and the residential area even had enclosed walls. The floors were not too high, with the highest being only 12 floors. There was an elevator, and there were four units per floor. The exterior was well maintained.
There were also security guards on duty at the entrance of the residential area. Vehicles entering and exiting had a special pass. If one was not a resident of the residential area, he or she would have to register and leave a copy of the pass.
Huo Shaoheng nodded. "It's alright. I'll go back and check the background information of the residents here. If it's about right, I'll buy it. "
Gu Nianzhi, "…"
He suddenly blushed with shame.
She knew that if Huo Shaoheng wanted to investigate the background information of the residents here, he would probably go as far as the heavens and the earth. He would be able to investigate everything from three generations of their ancestors to their collateral relatives …
"… We haven't even seen the house yet. How can we buy it just like that?" It was Gu Nianzhi's turn to object.
Huo Shaoheng glanced at her. "Do you have the contact information of the owner or manager?"
Gu Nianzhi nodded. "Yes."
"I'll give them a call and see if we can view the house today." Huo Shaoheng was a man of action. Since he was here, he might as well take a look at the actual house.
Gu Nianzhi felt that it was a bit abrupt and too urgent. The owner hadn't even prepared in such a short time.
However, Huo Shaoheng kept staring at her, so she had no choice but to take out her phone and call the manager first.
The manager heard it and quickly said, "Miss Gu? I'll help you ask the owner. If they don't mind, I'll take you to view the house. "
Gu Nianzhi breathed a sigh of relief and smiled. "Thank you for the trouble."
The manager acted very quickly and called her five minutes later. She said with a smile, "What a coincidence. The owner is at home cleaning up the house. You can go up and see for yourself. I've already told them your name."
"That's great. Thank you." Gu Nianzhi hung up with a smile and said to Huo Shaoheng, "The owner is at home cleaning up the house. Let's go take a look."
Huo Shaoheng nodded and walked in with her.
The security guard at the entrance had already received a call from the owner and knew that Gu Nianzhi was there to view the house. After asking her to make a copy of her identification, he let her and Huo Shaoheng in.
The two of them went to Unit 602 of Block A in Hepingli Precinct and rang the doorbell.
A woman in her thirties opened the door and looked at them. She asked with a smile, "You're Gu Nianzhi?"
Gu Nianzhi nodded. "May I ask if you're the owner of the house? Mr. Zhao asked us to come. "
Mr. Zhao was the manager.
The woman stepped aside to let them in. "Come in. We're packing up and will be moving soon. "
Gu Nianzhi and Huo Shaoheng casually looked around the house.
It was a two-bedroom apartment with elegant decor. It had a log floor and light-colored waterproof paint on the walls. The two bathrooms were clean and refreshing, and the kitchen was connected to the dining room. It was open -plan. There was also a large bay window facing the dining table.
Gu Nianzhi walked around and liked the place very much.
Although it wasn't as big as the house Huo Shaoheng had bought for her, it would be the first house she had bought for herself. It had a different meaning.
She had spent her own money to buy something and used it with confidence.
Although Gu Nianzhi looked happy, she didn't show it.
She asked Huo Shaoheng noncommittally, "Are you done looking?"
Huo Shaoheng nodded. "Let's go."
The two of them said goodbye and left. The owner of the house felt uneasy and contacted the manager again. She didn't know if the house would be sold.
After Gu Nianzhi and Huo Shaoheng came out, they had more or less decided to buy the house.
They got into the car and Huo Shaoheng drove her back to school.
On the way there, he took her to a nearby supermarket to buy some daily necessities and food to go back to school.
When they arrived at Gu Nianzhi's dorm, it was already past three in the afternoon.
Gu Nianzhi got out of the car with large and small bags and said to Huo Shaoheng, "Thank you for shopping with me today. It's getting late, so I won't keep you."
Huo Shaoheng looked at the large and small bags in her hands and parked the car. He took the plastic bags from her hands. "I'll walk you up."
Gu Nianzhi wanted to say no, but Huo Shaoheng was already striding towards the elevator.
Gu Nianzhi could only follow.
They returned to Gu Nianzhi's dorm and saw that Ma Qiqi had already returned.
She was holding a thermos and watching TV.
When she saw Gu Nianzhi come in, she quickly stood up and said, "Nianzhi, you're back? Where did you go? "
Gu Nianzhi smiled as she put a bag of snacks on the dining table in the living room. "Here, Qiqi, it's my treat."
Ma Qiqi cheered and took out a bag of shrimp crackers from the plastic bag to eat.
Huo Shaoheng helped Gu Nianzhi take the rest of the things to her room.
Ma Qiqi winked at Gu Nianzhi, and Gu Nianzhi smiled and hit her before going in.
"Huo Shaoheng, don't bother. I can clean up myself." Gu Nianzhi took the plastic bag from Huo Shaoheng's hands firmly and stubbornly.
Huo Shaoheng let go and watched as Gu Nianzhi skillfully sorted the things she bought and put them in the appropriate places.
He stood there for a while and saw that Gu Nianzhi was still ignoring him. He took out a cigarette from his trouser pocket and lit it twice on his palm. He said to Gu Nianzhi, "Then I'll go back first. You can sign the contract and pay the deposit after I finish the background check."
Gu Nianzhi didn't even look back. "Thank you for the trouble."
After a while, Ma Qiqi's farewell came from outside, followed by the sound of the door slamming shut.
Gu Nianzhi instantly felt relieved.
She jumped out of the room and waved at Ma Qiqi. "Qiqi, come. Tell me what big gossip has been going on at school and in the faculty these days!"
Ma Qiqi hugged the snacks and went into her room. Gu Nianzhi took out the two cups of iced milk tea she bought, and the two of them ate and drank. They happily enjoyed the leisurely afternoon.
…
When He Zhichu found Gu Nianzhi's message, it was already six or seven in the evening.
He had been investigating Gu Nianzhi's disappearance in Germany for the past two days.
Many clues had been cut off by others, so his investigation wasn't going smoothly. However, it was this unsuccess that pointed him in the right direction.
The more he investigated, the more he seemed to point to the most impossible result.
In the afternoon, He Zhichu gathered all the evidence together and called his hometown.
The person who answered was Wen Shouyi.
He Zhichu's voice was very cold. "Wen Shouyi, are you that free? You're always at my house. "
Wen Shouyi's voice was very frightened and trembling. "Mr. He, Auntie Qin … Auntie Qin … had a miscarriage."
He Zhichu was speechless.
He stood up with a very serious expression. "What did you say?!"
"Auntie Qin … had a miscarriage." Wen Shouyi said it again. This time, she spoke very slowly, enunciating each word as if she was afraid He Zhichu couldn't hear her clearly.
"Auntie Qin had a miscarriage? When did she get pregnant? " He Zhichu's voice seemed to have been tempered in ice water. Every word was like ice shards that made people shiver.
"… It's only been two months." Wen Shouyi said very quietly, like she was pressed against the microphone. "Auntie Qin is very sad. Senior Mr. He has been in her room with her for the past two days."
He Zhichu almost sneered. "Are you sure? Does my father know she had a miscarriage?! "
"… Of course he knows." Wen Shouyi froze. "Is there something wrong?"
"Put my father on the phone." He Zhichu kicked the coffee table in annoyance, and it moved to the side with a squeak. A few drops of coffee spilled on the table, and He Zhichu wiped it with a tissue.
Soon after, Senior Mr. He picked up the phone.
He Zhichu immediately said, "Father, Auntie Qin had a miscarriage? How did she get pregnant?! "
He Zhichu knew that his father had a very serious prostate disease in the past and could no longer have children.
But he also knew that Auntie Qin had been infatuated with his father for decades. He couldn't tell that she would cheat on him!
Senior Mr. He rubbed his eyebrows and said quietly, "… Don't get the wrong idea. Your Auntie Qin used my frozen sperm as a test tube baby. "
He Zhichu was speechless.
