Chapter 390: Chapter 410: Our Little Home? _1

"Help me find a quieter place to live. I might stay for a while, and it’s uncomfortable to always stay in hotels."

Since Liu Zhen Hao claimed he wanted to repay Lin Chen’s kindness, Lin Chen half-jokingly made some requests.

Liu Zhen Hao patted his chest and wholeheartedly agreed.

The next day, as Lin Chen and Gu Yuexi got up, Liu Zhen Hao sent a message that the house was settled.

After breakfast, Liu Zhen Hao arrived and took the two to see the house.

A large 180 square meters flat in the city center, located in a quiet upscale community with patches of green plants and lawns, and the room had everything needed for instant move-in.

"Nice environment, thank you!"

Lin Chen looked around the house: "In half a day, you found a house like this, you must have put in a lot of effort."

Liu Zhen Hao laughed: "As long as you’re satisfied, the house is yours."

Lin Chen was slightly stunned: "Purchased?"

Liu Zhen Hao nodded: "We’re not so poor that we have to rent a house. Although I don’t know what you’re doing in Xijing, having a home makes it more convenient when you come to Xijing in the future. Staying in a hotel all the time isn’t ideal, no matter how good the hotel is, it can’t be more comfortable than home."

Lin Chen said with a laugh: "Real estate in Xijing is incredibly valuable, you must have spent a fortune for a place like this."

Liu Zhen Hao laughed: "It’s just a token of appreciation, as long as you’re happy."

Lin Chen didn’t stand on ceremony with Liu Zhen Hao and nodded: "Alright, I’ll accept it."

Lin Chen wasn’t sure how long he would stay in Xijing, but having a house would indeed be more convenient.

Seeing Lin Chen readily accept the gift, Liu Zhen Hao let out a sigh of relief in his heart. He was afraid that Lin Chen would be modest and not accept the gift, which would mean Lin Chen didn’t want to get entangled with him. Lin Chen accepted so readily, it showed that Lin Chen didn’t treat him as an outsider.

Liu Zhen Hao sincerely wanted to repay Lin Chen. When it comes to being friends, there should be give and take. Even if the other party doesn’t lack anything, expressing gratitude is completely different from not expressing it.

Liu Zhen Hao was well aware that Lin Chen didn’t lack money. Not to mention his medical skills and strength, Lin Chen and Chu Jiaxue had divided up nearly half of the Chu family’s fortune between them. The value that he owned was an enormous number.

Gu Yuexi excitedly toured the room.

Previously, when Lin Chen went to Linhai, he stayed in a hotel with Chu Jiaxue, and then when he reclaimed the Chu family’s old mansion, he decided to move in together with Chu Jiaxue. Although Chu Jiaxue is not around now, Gu Yuexi would never live in the Chu family’s ancestral home.

That was Chu Jiaxue’s home.

If she lived in her sister’s house, sleeping in her sister’s bed and embracing this man, who was her brother-in-law in name, it would feel very guilty.

But this place is entirely different!

This house was given to Lin Chen by Liu Zhen Hao to show his gratitude for Lin Chen’s help, and it’s in Xijing, far away from Linhai. Excluding the concept of jointly owned marital property, this house has nothing to do with Chu Jiaxue.

If she and Lin Chen lived here away from their hometown, would this place be considered their little home in Xijing?

A private space that belongs only to the two of them?

Here, they can be open and aboveboard without worrying about being watched by others with strange eyes...

After lunch, Liu Zhen Hao said goodbye and left. Gu Yuexi excitedly dragged Lin Chen to buy daily necessities.

"Let’s have dinner at home tonight. It’s like a housewarming celebration, what do you think?"

Lin Chen asked with a smile, "Can you cook?"

Gu Yuexi’s mouth opened, her expression awkward, "Oh right, I forgot, I can’t cook."

Gu Yuexi grew up in a wealthy family; she had never set foot in the kitchen.

Seeing Gu Yuexi’s expression, Lin Chen couldn’t help but laugh: "I’ll cook, you wash the dishes. Is that okay?"

Gu Yuexi nodded vigorously, her face full of joy: "Yes, I can also help you do some prep work... How come a great master like you knows how to cook?"

Lin Chen explained: "I’ve been taking care of myself and my master’s diet since I was a child. I’ve cooked for over ten years, do you think I can cook?"

Gu Yuexi curiously asked: "I’ve always heard you mention your master, where is he now?"

Lin Chen replied with a bitter smile: "I don’t know, I feel like he’s deliberately avoiding me, probably because he’s afraid I’ll ask about my background."

Gu Yuexi asked with concern: "Auntie is a member of the Feng family, when are you planning to visit them?"

Lin Chen thought for a while: "Let’s settle in today and go tomorrow."

Gu Yuexi asked curiously: "In what identity are you going to meet the Feng family members? Great Grandmaster? Great Doctor?"

Lin Chen blinked and suddenly laughed: "Didn’t I used to be a security guard?"

Gu Yuexi chuckled: "Are you planning to pose as a poor relative?"

Lin Chen laughed: "I’ve never lied. I used to be a soldier, then a salesman, and a security guard. It’s all true..."

Lin Chen slightly lifted his chin, and his eyes sparkled in the sunlight: "I hope they can be more decisive. It will be better for everyone."
