Chapter 171

Seeing that it was getting late, Zhao Fang interjected:

"Alright, alright, it's getting late, you should get some rest early too."

"Xiao Jiang, stay here tonight; it's so late, it's not safe to go back."

Jiang Wan was stunned for a moment and subconsciously glanced at Qin Ze.

Qin Ze said:

"That's fine, let's stay for the night."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Fang was overjoyed:

"Good, good, good! I'll go tidy up the room for you!"

Saying this, she ran into the inner room with a thud-thud-thud.

Qin Shougang also stood up and yawned:

"I'm sleepy too, I'm going to sleep first."

"You two should get some rest early too."

After saying this, he entered the master bedroom and closed the door.

Qin Ze and Jiang Wan sat in the living room and exchanged glances.

After a while, Zhao Fang poked her head out from the inner room:

"Qin Ze, come here for a second!"

Qin Ze was stunned for a moment, stood up, and walked over.

Zhao Fang pulled him aside and lowered her voice:

"Son, there are only three bedrooms in the house; one is for your dad and me, and one is for storage, so it can't be cleared out for a while!"

"The remaining one is for you to sleep in alone."

"So where is Xiao Jiang sleeping tonight?"

Qin Ze didn't even think:

"Then let her sleep on the sofa."

Zhao Fang rolled her eyes at him:

"Are you stupid!"

"Xiao Jiang has already entered our home, and you're going to let a guest sleep on the sofa?"

"Is that appropriate?"

Qin Ze was stunned for a moment:

"Then what do you mean..."

Zhao Fang slapped him:

"You two stay in one room!"

Qin Ze opened his mouth, not knowing what to say.

Seeing him like this, Zhao Fang added:

"Mom understands what's going on between you and Xiao Jiang!"

"Besides, Xiao Jiang is a girl; do you have the heart to let her sleep on the sofa in the middle of the night?"

"If you're too embarrassed to say it, I'll go tell her!"

After saying this, she was about to walk out.

Qin Ze hurriedly grabbed her:

"No, no, no! Mom, don't go!"

"I'll tell her myself!"

Zhao Fang looked at him and smiled:

"That's more like it."

"Alright, stop dawdling, go wash up and sleep."

After saying this, she entered the master bedroom and closed the door with a click.

Qin Ze stood in the hallway, stunned for quite a while.

He took a deep breath and walked back to the living room.

Jiang Wan was sitting on the sofa, and seeing him come out, she asked:

"What did Auntie say?"

Qin Ze scratched his head:

"Well... she said..."

"There are only two bedrooms in the house..."

"She wants you to sleep in my room..."

Jiang Wan nodded:

"Then what about you? Are you sleeping on the sofa?"

Qin Ze paused:

"She said she wants you and me to stay in the same room."

Jiang Wan's expression froze instantly.

Her face turned red at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Stay in the same room?"

Qin Ze was also somewhat awkward:

"I didn't expect her to say that either..."

Jiang Wan lowered her head and was silent for quite a while.

Then, she suddenly said:

"Forget it."

"Auntie has already arranged it, so let's not make her worry."

"If we're staying in the same room, then we're staying in the same room."

"Anyway, it's not like we haven't slept in the same bed before."

When she said this, her voice became smaller and smaller, and the last few words were almost mumbled.

Qin Ze was stunned for a moment.

"Then... alright."

"You go in and take a shower first, I'll find you some clothes to change into."

Jiang Wan nodded, stood up, and walked into the bedroom with her head lowered.

Qin Ze rummaged through the wardrobe, found a clean T-shirt and a pair of shorts, and handed them to her.

Jiang Wan took them and walked into the bathroom.

Qin Ze sat on the edge of the bed, listening to the sound of water coming from the bathroom, feeling some indescribable sensations in his heart.

He took a deep breath, forcing himself not to let his mind wander.

After a while, the bathroom door opened.

Jiang Wan walked out.

Her hair was still wet, and water droplets dripped down from the tips of her hair, wetting the collar of the T-shirt.

Qin Ze felt that Jiang Wan without makeup was even more alluring.

Qin Ze's gaze lingered on her for two seconds, then he hurriedly looked away.

Jiang Wan was also somewhat embarrassed; she lowered her head, walked to the bed, and sat down.

The lights were turned off.

The room fell into darkness.

But after adapting to the darkness!

Qin Ze discovered that he could still clearly see Jiang Wan!

Jiang Wan blinked.

"Qin Ze, I just discovered that the soundproofing in your house's bedroom isn't good!"

Qin Ze nodded.

"You don't need to remind me, I've known since I was a child!"

Jiang Wan smiled mysteriously, then leaned over.

"Then we can only take an unconventional path!"

The next morning.

Qin Ze was still sleeping when he heard some movement in the living room.

He picked up his phone and took a look; it was only 7:30 AM.

Qin Ze rubbed his eyes, put on his slippers, and walked out of the bedroom.

In the living room, Zhao Fang had already changed into a new outfit, her hair was combed neatly, and she had even applied some powder to her face.

Qin Shougang had also put on the new jacket he bought earlier, and his hair was slicked back with water until it shone.

Seeing his parents dressed up like this, Qin Ze couldn't help but laugh:

"Dad, Mom, are you two going on a blind date?"

Zhao Fang rolled her eyes at him:

"We're going to look at houses today, of course we have to dress decently!"

"We can't embarrass you, can we!"

Qin Ze smiled:

"Alright, alright, you're right."

He washed his face, changed his clothes, and then called Jiang Wan.

Not long after, Jiang Wan arrived.

The four of them went downstairs together, and Qin Ze drove straight to Jinxiu City.

The sales office of Jinxiu City was built quite grandly.

There were quite a few cars parked at the entrance, and many people coming and going.

Qin Ze parked the car and walked into the sales office with his parents and Jiang Wan.

As soon as they entered, a sales lady in a black professional suit walked up to them.

She scanned the attire of Qin Ze's family and wore a professional smile on her face:

"Hello, sir, welcome to Jinxiu City!"

"Are you here to look at houses?"

Qin Ze nodded:

"Yes."

The sales lady asked:

"What size unit are you looking for?"

Qin Ze said:

"Let my parents look around for themselves first."

The sales lady was stunned for a moment but still nodded:

"Alright, you all can look around as you please."

After saying this, she followed along, but her attitude was clearly not as enthusiastic as before.

Qin Ze didn't care and said to Qin Shougang and Zhao Fang:

"Dad, Mom, look around yourselves; whatever unit type you like, we'll buy that one."

Upon hearing this, Qin Shougang nodded and pulled Zhao Fang along to wander around the sales office.

The sand table in the sales office was made very large, displaying the layout of the entire community.

Qin Shougang stood in front of the sand table and looked for a long time:

"This location is good, close to the community garden."

Zhao Fang also leaned over to take a look:

"But this building is too far from the main gate, it's not convenient to go out and buy groceries."

"Then how about looking at this building?"

"This building faces the street, won't it be too noisy?"

The two of them talked back and forth, looking at this and then that, wandering around the sales office several times.

One moment they were pointing at a building on the sand table and asking about the price, and the next they were pointing at another building and asking about the orientation.

The smile on the face of the sales lady nearby gradually became difficult to maintain.

She had been in this line of work for several years and had seen too many customers like this.

They came in with great momentum, looking like they were going to buy a house.

But after looking for a long time and asking a bunch of questions, they ended up saying, "We'll consider it some more."

And then there was no "then."

In her eyes, Qin Ze's family was a typical customer who only looked but didn't buy.

After another ten minutes or so, Qin Shougang stood in front of the sand table and pointed at a building, asking:

"Young lady, can I get a copy of the floor plan for this building to look at?"

The smile on the sales lady's face had already turned into perfunctoriness:

"Uncle, the floor plans are over there, you can go find them yourself."

"I need to attend to other customers here!"

Her tone already carried a hint of impatience.
