4629 Never Too Late to Love (36)
Bai Sheng did not listen to a single word they said. She was thinking that admittedly, she did not know much about Gu Chengzeâs family background. However, she didnât think he was out to cheat her. She had nothing at all. Why would such an outstanding man cheat her? Even if he did, she had nothing to lose.
âBai Sheng, You ought to be more alert!â A female colleague poked her head in exasperation.
âOuch!â Bai Sheng finally responded as she snapped out of a daze, âOmelette? What omelette?
â¦
!!
After a long silence, laughter suddenly erupted in the office.
âHahahaha! Bai Sheng, you glutton. Weâre asking you to be more alert, is there only food on your mind?ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âBai Sheng, youâre too cute. I really do fear for you that youâd be kidnapped.â
âHasnât she already been kidnapped?â
Another round of jeers. Bai Shengâs expression darkened. Suddenly a text message came in on her phone. It was from Gu Chengze.
She opened the message and saw a few lines from Gu Chengze.
âOn your next off day, weâll go and look at some properties.â
Bai Sheng was a little stunned. Properties?
She didnât understand and asked, âWhat properties?â
Gu Chengze replied almost instantly, âOur home, idiot.â
Home⦠Did he mean matrimonial home?
Usually, when two people got married, the first step was to buy a house as a matrimonial home. Since getting married meant that the two of them had to leave home and become independent, they would have to build their own home as a start.
However, properties in the capital were too expensive now. Her internship period was at most two to three thousand yuan a month. She would only receive a car, bonus, and performance reward after she became a full-fledged employee. Her dream was to be a famous designer, but in such a company, there was no room for her to showcase her talent. Her dream had become wishful thinking. It was very difficult for ordinary designers to survive. The property prices in Beijing were millions or even tens of millions.
She replied, âI donât have any money on me. I canât afford muchâ¦â
As soon as the message was sent, she felt somewhat disappointed. She felt rather useless.
This time, Gu Chengzeâs reply was relatively simple. âI have money.â
âUmâ¦â Bai Shengâs heart skipped a beat.
âWhatâs the budget?â
âThereâs no budget. It mainly depends on the quality of the house. Look at the new developments online first and do your homework in advance.â
â¦
After completing the design drafts, Bai Sheng had free time on hand, so she searched for information on developments online.
Recently, there were many new developments. Three among them that had the best reputation were Shengyuâs Chunjiang Tianxi, one was Hengyuanâs Linxing Premier, and the other was the Baonaâs Seine Garden.
It was Bai Shengâs first experience in house-hunting, so she was dazzled by all the introductions.
A few colleagues saw Bai Sheng browsing the web and went up to her curiously. They saw her browsing properties.
âBai Sheng, are you planning to buy a house?â
âChunjiang Tianxi? I heard that this development is very expensive!â
Bai Sheng was at a loss. âDidnât you say that it hasnât been launched yet? It happens to be launching this Saturday. I plan to go to the sales office to take a look.â
Her colleagues were shocked. âAre you serious about buying it?â
Bai Sheng said truthfully, âMy hubby said that he wants to buy a house, so Iâm just doing my homework first.â
âMy aunt is a senior executive at Chunjiang Tianxi. She said that the launch price of the units is at least 200,000 yuan per square meter.â
200,000⦠Scary!
The other colleagues found it unbelievable as well.
âThat expensive?â
âBecause the location is awesome! The school district is good, transportation is convenient, and itâs close to the shopping center. You have everything at your fingertips. The key is that the housing type is good, and the developer has an excellent reputation, so 200,000 yuan is a fair price.â
