Shi Xiaoya stared at him in shock.
She only saw that he carried one more bag with him, but she did not know what was inside.
“So fast?” Shi Xiaoya was so shocked that she could not close her mouth. “Did you ask Assistant Tong to send it downstairs here for you?”
Han Zhuoling held back his laughter. The corners of his lips curved slightly as he said, “I did go back home to take this.”
He put the bag on the sofa and said, “It’s the clothes that I will wear tomorrow.”
Shi Xiaoya: “…”
This man, what kind of dumb riddle was he playing now?
Han Zhuoling came over and held her hand. “Come, I’ll bring you to have a look.”
Shi Xiaoya was brought into the lift by Han Zhuoling in a state of confusion and shock.
She saw him pressing the lift button for the floor above her.
Shi Xiaoya: “…”
It couldn’t be what she thought it was.
Right after that, the lift stopped and the doors opened.
Han Zhuoling then brought her in and said, “I am the new neighbor. I promise I’m a good neighbor.”
Shi Xiaoya was dumbstruck. She was in a state of shock for quite a long moment.
“You… When did you buy this?” No, no wait. What she wanted to ask was, would he be staying here all the time from now on?
Not that too. She had too many questions she wanted to ask, not just these two.
“Around the time I became sure I like you, I bought it,” Han Zhuoling said.
“What?”
Based on what Han Zhuoling said before, he’d probably liked her for quite some time already.
Anyway, that was a bit earlier than when the two of them officially got together.
Shi Xiaoya felt that it was probably at the time when she suspected if he was flirting with her.
But it could even be a little earlier than that.
After all, she was a little dense when it came to relationships.
Even when the other party was flirting so obviously, she would only have a little bit of suspicion.
“At first, the person above you did not want to sell, but I offered double the selling price, so he sold it,” Han Zhuoling said.
“Why are you such a wastrel?!” Shi Xiaoya could only say this when she heard his words.
With such money, he could have bought an apartment that was even bigger—big enough for the two of them to stay together.
Was there a need for him to be so sneaky and insist on being her neighbor?
Han Zhuoling: “…”
So he was still not thick-skinned enough!
Han Zhuoling’s lips twitched a little before he said, “At that time, I wasn’t with you yet, right? Although I had already made up my mind back then that aside from me, you cannot end up with someone else, I was thinking at that time that if I bought this apartment and we were still not together yet, I can move in first and have added advantage.”
“After I bought it, I seized the chance whenever you went out to work and was not at home to renovate it. The original owner had moved all his furniture away, but I was not very pleased with the remaining floor tiles, walls, and the like, so I decided to just remove all of them and renovate it completely.” Han Zhuoling really renovated it completely and just tore down everything that was here.
He only finished renovating recently and had just had his furniture delivered, so the house smelled clean and fresh.
The boxes that Shi Xiaoya saw today were the things that Han Zhuoling was used to using on a daily basis.
“I just didn’t expect that by the time the house was done being renovated, we’d have already gotten together,” Han Zhuoling said.
Shi Xiaoya: “…”
Haha, he did not need to move in to have added advantage anymore, right?
Han Zhuoling held her and said, “This is also the first time you’re coming to my house, right?”
Shi Xiaoya: “…”
“Have you come here before?” Shi Xiaoya asked.
“When you weren’t around, I came over a few times. I have to come over to examine the renovation results sometimes,” Han Zhuoling said.
“Come, I’ll show you around,” Han Zhuoling said. “Previously, when I came, I just came to briefly see whether the style suits my requirements after the renovation was complete. After I saw and checked that there was no problem overall, I didn’t care about it anymore. As for the other details, I have never looked at them before either.”
