Chapter 170 Give You a House
Chapter 170 Give You a House
What is he talking about?
How could she not let her live in his place?
It seemed as if he knew that Xia Qing would not believe what he said. After all, no one could tell what would happen in the future.
But he still explained patiently.
"I was originally planning to move. This old neighborhood is great in every way, but parking is so inconvenient. My car has even been urinated on and scratched by a puppy. So a while ago, I renovated my other house and ventilated it for a while."
"But after I met you, I didn't want to move away anymore." Xia Qing knew why he didn't want to move away even without him saying it.
After all, the ancient saying that the one who is near water gets the moon first is true.
"It's too troublesome to sign contracts again and again. Besides, I've simply decorated this house, so I found an agent and bought the one I was renting."
"It's convenient for you to go to work if you live here. How about I give you the house?"
Xia Qing was shocked. She hadn't thought about buying a house in Beijing for a long time, after all, all the money had been given to her family. He actually wanted to give her one. She really felt like she was being kept by someone.
"No~" Xia Qing refused.
"You don't like the old house? I'll give you this new one, but it's far from your workplace." This old neighborhood wasn't one of those particularly old tube-shaped buildings. Compared to the truly old neighborhoods, it was considered a luxury neighborhood at the time. Its key location was in Xicheng District, right next to Beijing South Railway Station.
"It's not that I dislike it because it's old, it's just that I can't have it. It's too expensive~"
Cui Jinsong smiled helplessly.
"It's not expensive. I was worried that I wouldn't be good enough for you. When I first came to Beijing, I wanted to buy a large flat near Yuyuantan. At that time, I wasn't sure how my career would develop in Beijing, so I didn't buy it. I bought a small one for myself."
"When we get married, I'm sure neither of these will work. They're too small to live in."
"But, should we each live in one for now? We can see later whether we can choose a better community and buy a bigger one as a wedding house, or a large flat? The good villas are too far away, all in the suburbs." Of course, there are still some villas in Beijing that are exclusively for dignitaries and are not accessible to people like them.
Xia Qing listened to him as if she was listening to a foreign language. She could understand every word, but after listening to such a long paragraph, she felt a little confused.
After a long time, Cui Jinsong looked at Xia Qing and waited for her opinion.
Xia Qing stopped what she was doing, walked towards him, and sat on his lap. She was shocked and said, "Cui Jinsong, you are so rich?!"
Cui Jinsong put his arm around her waist and said with a smile, "I just have a little money. In Beijing, the truly wealthy are not people like me. Those people are powerful and wealthy. I am just an ordinary person."
Xia Qing thought, what am I then? Am I not worthy of this?
Indeed, there are many rich people in Beijing who not only have a lot of money but also power.
However, in her eyes, Cui Jinsong is very outstanding.
The apartment complex she just mentioned near Yuyuantan is full of large flats, with an average price of over 300 yuan per square meter. The lowest unit size seems to be over 900 square meters, and the highest is square meters. Buying a house like this would cost tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of yuan.
She wasn't too sure, but it was probably around this price, but it wouldn't be possible to get a room in a luxury residential area in Beijing.
There has never been a moment when I realized that the gap between the rich and the poor is so huge.
The small software company that Xia Qing worked for previously only had an annual turnover of around 40 million, and the group had to allocate funds to support the staff, so the profits were very limited throughout the year.
Cui Jinsong said that he was just an ordinary person here, but in his hometown he was considered a wealthy man.
Cui Jinsong was afraid that she would not accept it, so he tried to persuade her again.
"What I'm giving you now isn't the best. I doubt you'd dare to accept anything better than what I'd give you. But having your own house in Beijing will also make you feel more secure. I didn't want to live in Beijing long-term before. But what I can guarantee is that no matter what happens to you and me in the future, you'll have a place to settle down."
I'll give you a small house so I don't have any burden and you don't have to have any burden either.
But how could Xia Qing not have any burden?
This old community now costs several million to buy.
Xia Qing looked at him: "Cui Jinsong, are you throwing money at me?"
Cui Jinsong laughed heartily: "Have you ever seen a man throw money at someone like this, giving him an old, dilapidated house?"
This isn't a small, old, dilapidated apartment, Xia Qing thought. Many young people choose this 80-square-meter apartment as their wedding home, probably inheriting it from their parents. A truly small, old, dilapidated apartment would be one where their parents move elsewhere.
Cui Jinsong added: "Since we've been together, you've given me a lot, but I've never given you anything precious. You don't want luxury jewelry or bags, and the only things I can buy are some clothes and shoes. If others knew I treated my girlfriend like this, they would definitely accuse me of cheating on her."
"There's no such thing as cheating on money or sex. I did it all voluntarily." Xia Qing said lightly.
"If you're doing this willingly, I can't do this to you. If you have a purpose, that's fine. I don't have to worry about me, an old cow, eating young grass and not willing to spend money."
She was unhappy when he said he was old. Although she often said that she was an old man, she would not allow others to say he was old.
"Cui Jinsong, why do you like me? I think there's a huge gap between us in wealth, and we're not suitable for each other!"
Cui Jinsong kissed her: "You're saying this again. I don't understand love either. I just care about you, like you, and fall in love with you. There's no way to explain things like feelings clearly. Maybe this is what people often say, love is predestined."
He had been single for so long. She had suffered through emotional ups and downs and endured torture and pain.
After many twists and turns, they got together.
"I feel like I'm becoming a gold digger~" Xia Qing said sullenly as she lay on him. She has always had a strong sense of self-esteem and was afraid that others would say that she was supported by men.
In the past, her criteria for finding a partner was to find someone from an ordinary family, so that they could work hard together. Now that she has found someone who seems to have some money, her self-esteem will often push her against it.
"That's not the way to think. Love is about giving. I got you, so I should give something in return."
Cui Jinsong wanted to slowly influence her, to stop limiting herself and making her feel exhausted. He wanted to be nicer to her, so what was wrong with that? However, she had put herself in a mental shackle, not daring to accept his material gifts, only asking for spiritual and emotional support.
He felt that material and emotional things were given to her together.
What does he voluntarily give to others? What can others say?
Sometimes she also needs someone to pull her out of the vicious circle of self-binding.
"Can you find some time to transfer ownership? Let's go with the one downstairs now. Don't be stressed. It's really that much. I do have enough money, so don't overthink it."
"Yeah, thank you." Xia Qing put her arms around his neck. She understood Cui Jinsong's concern for her. Now she had a house, and even if they broke up in the future, she would no longer be alone in Beijing.
"Cui Jinsong, if I have a house, I can get my household registration. I just graduated with a master's degree and joined our company to get a household registration. My household registration is currently in the company's collective household. If I have a house, I can get a house."
"Our children will be able to live and study in Beijing in the future!" Xia Qing was a little excited. Many people want a Beijing hukou in order to buy a house for schooling.
Cui Jinsong pressed his forehead against hers.
"Well, I'm taking advantage of you. That's great, Xia Qing. Now, am I, a foreigner from another place, going to be considered superior to you?" He said with a teasing smile.
Xia Qing scolded him, saying that he didn't care about that. People there liked to send their daughters out to study.
Cui Jinsong picked her up and said, "Let's talk about having children. After all, who just said that we wanted to send our children to school in Beijing? We don't even have a child yet. I have to work hard..."
Without further ado, he carried her into Xia Qing's bedroom.
