Chapter 567: Chapter 567 Confirming the Relationship
Nian Shutong had chosen the courtyard, and the real estate agent drove a small utility vehicle, taking both of them and a goat to view the property.
“This neighborhood is the best one next to the Imperial Military Academy, and many of the academy’s teachers and professors live here. The houses here really sell out the moment they become available.”
“Today is a good day for you two as well, this house has just been vacated and hasn’t even been listed on our website yet.”
The agent praised the house all the way, and only when the car entered through a grand gate did Nian Shutong realize the agent wasn’t exaggerating.
They hadn’t yet seen the house, but the neighborhood’s environment was truly excellent.
Trees shaded the area, and flowers filled the gardens.
With artificial hills, flowing water, and delicately arranged courtyards and terraces, there were straight, towering roads as well as winding, secluded paths.
Most importantly, Nian Shutong noticed something interesting, the neighborhood’s surroundings, or certain corners, were planted with sugarcane, sweet potatoes, and rice.
She recognized them at a glance because these were seeds from Blue Star.
These seeds were intentionally arranged to form a landscape, which also took radiation removal into account, a very clever technique.
Every seed had been utilized to its fullest effect.
The agent noticed Nian shutong’s gaze and introduced with great enthusiasm, “Those are from Little River Live, do you two know about Little River Live?”
“Somewhat.”
“If you know about Little River Live, you must know that these seeds absorb radiation, which makes the living environment radiation-free. So, this neighborhood is planted with such vegetation to ensure everyone has a comfortable living environment.”
Nian Shutong nodded, indicating she understood.
At this moment, the agent finally stopped the car and said to the two of them, “This is the courtyard you’ll be viewing, shall we go in?”
“Okay.”
“Sure.”
The three of them entered the courtyard together, which wasn’t particularly large, but had very good privacy.
Upon opening the courtyard door, there was a small path where one could plant flowers, trees, or even vegetables and fruits on both sides, walking about twenty meters, then they reached the steps leading into the house.
The house was a three-story building with a very fashionable design, the exterior was a simple and elegant combination of black and white.
There were small paths on both sides of the house leading to the backyard, which was about ten meters wide.
It was a very suitable courtyard for living, and there was nothing to criticize about the house’s interior layout either. After both had taken a good look, Fu Yunhe looked at Nian Shutong, and Nian Shutong gave him a confirming look.
Understanding her, Fu Yunhe asked the agent, “How much is this house?”
“Since this house is well-located, right by the school, the price is a bit high, selling for five hundred million Star Coins.”
The agent had definitely observed their expressions carefully, but their faces remained expressionless.
Fu Yunhe asked very methodically, “What’s the lowest price?”
He thought that if he didn’t negotiate, Nian Shutong would definitely lecture him later.
“It can be reduced by two million Star Coins, that’s the lowest.” The agent wasn’t really lying; the houses here were indeed in high demand.
Fu Yunhe looked at Nian Shutong nodding and directly said to the agent, “We’ll take it. Let’s sign the contract.”
“Oh? Alright, I can handle the contract right now, everything is done through the Star Network.”
Fu Yunhe stepped forward to handle the procedures, but when writing down the name for the property deed, he stopped the agent and said, “Write my wife’s name here, Nian Shutong.”
Nian Shutong, by his side, didn’t refuse and cooperatively opened her Light Computer, signed the contract, and imprinted it with her spiritual power.
After signing, Fu Yunhe neatly made the payment, four hundred and eighty million, payment successful.
The agent liked dealing with such decisive customers—neat and clear-cut. He even started warmly telling them where they could buy good-looking and affordable furniture and what facilities were around, generally speaking warmly about a lot.
When the agent left, Fu Yunhe closed the courtyard door and made an inviting gesture to Nian Shutong.
“Please, lady of the house.”
“Ha, you said it right.”
Nian Shutong took a few steps and stood at the doorway, observing Fu Yunhe who seemed a bit different than usual.
“Fu Yunhe, I am officially informing you now—we are legally married—”
Nian Shutong’s gaze lowered as she looked at a hand over her mouth, this guy, getting bold, dared to cover her mouth.
“Don’t glare at me just yet, let me say something first, then you can hit me to feel better, how about that?”
Facing Nian Shutong, Fu Yunhe always seemed a bit short of breath and cautious, he watched her nod, finally releasing his hand.
Fu Yunhe stood upright, looking at Nian Shutong very seriously.
“Nian Shutong, my heart delights in you.”
Nian Shutong kept staring at Fu Yunhe, her heart undeniably beating a bit faster. Was this what he wanted to say?
To confess before she did?
“I’m not trying to preempt anything, I just feel that such matters should be initiated by a man, it’s a matter of courtesy and respect for you.”
Fu Yunhe spoke very earnestly. He wasn’t chauvinistic, he just felt that respect for Nian Shutong was deserved.
After saying this, Fu Yunhe lowered his head and brought it in front of Nian Shutong.
“Alright, hit me.”
Nian Shutong really did slap Fu Yunhe’s head lightly, disdainfully saying, “Who asks to be hit after confessing? Get up.”
With his head lowered, Fu Yunhe struggled to contain his happiness, raising his head to stare intently at Nian Shutong.
“Fu Yunhe, listen carefully, I’m only going to say this once.”
Nian Shutong’s words made Fu Yunhe adjust his smile and nod seriously.
“Being my Daoist couple means being my boyfriend, my husband, and from birth to death you belong only to me. If you ever do something to betray me, you should know the consequences.”
“I know, but it won’t happen.” Fu Yunhe held up a palm towards Nian Shutong, saying, “I swear by all my honor, my life—”
“Stop it! I don’t believe those things.”
Nian Shutong pulled down Fu Yunhe’s hand, saying to him, “Just remember it yourself, I don’t need those things.”
“I know.” Fu Yunhe took Nian Shutong’s hand, finally showing some authority in front of her, “Nian Shutong, from now on, you are my wife.”
“Okay.”
After saying the word, Nian Shutong awkwardly released their hands.
“Let’s go inside and take a look.”
“Okay.”
Fu Yunhe knew where to draw the line, being able to settle their relationship before Nian Shutong returned to school was enough satisfaction for him.
As for everything else, it would unfold slowly.
After the two had checked the place, they walked out of the small courtyard and went around to various places, buying lots of items and gradually furnishing the house.
Their interactions also became more natural, they were already familiar, just with a slight change in roles.
