Su Zelin had only been home for five days, but he went out on three dates with his junior high school classmate.
Every time, Huang Panpan would help book the hotel in advance and wait for his arrival.
The junior high school girl had just completed the transformation from a girl to a woman, and she did feel a little bit tempted. However, it was not just for this kind of thing. The main reason was that she felt that she and Su Zelin could stay together in the hotel without being disturbed.
Qin Shiqing didn't call me often. One big advantage of childhood sweethearts is that they don't check on each other.
First, it was due to his personality, not bronchitis; second, she also understood Su Zelin's unruly nature. If he really checked on him all day, the gangster would feel restrained and have no freedom, and would only want to break free from the reins.
In his previous life, the gangster was much more extravagant than he is now. Qin Shiqing was also slow to realize it. It was only after many years that she found out by chance that her boyfriend had cheated on her.
Therefore, whether or not Su Zelin goes out to hang out with Qin Shiqing has little impact. Even if they live together in Lin'an, the gangster can still go out as he pleases.
Five days later, Su Zelin and Qin Shiqing bid farewell to their families and went to Lin'an.
Before reporting to the company, the first thing to do is to find a suitable house to rent.
This is easy. The agency has plenty of rental properties. Just pay the agency fee, which is not very expensive.
And the rental won’t last too long, because Su Zelin also plans to buy a house.
Respecting Qin Shiqing's opinion, I chose a house that was close to the company and had convenient living conditions, preferably near a large supermarket or market. I quickly selected several communities that met the requirements, and after visiting and comparing the houses on site one by one, I decided on one of them.
There are two living rooms and three bedrooms, which are fully decorated with electrical appliances and furniture. You can move in with just your luggage. The location is good and the environment is comfortable. The building is new enough. There is a large supermarket downstairs and a market within a straight-line distance of less than 300 meters. It doesn't take long to walk there to buy groceries.
In addition, there is a small entrance garden. Qin Shiqing likes to plant some flowers, plants and other green plants, which is very suitable for her.
The girl fell in love with it at first sight, but thought the rent was a bit too expensive.
Even though it was her boyfriend who paid the rent and she knew Su Zelin was a big spender, she still thought it was better to save as much as possible.
However, the gangster signed it with a wave of his hand.
For Su Zelin, everything else is secondary, as long as Qin Shiqing likes it.
After signing the contract and getting the keys, I rushed to the supermarket downstairs to buy necessary daily necessities. Although I could move in with just my luggage, I still had to buy my own bowls, chopsticks, buckets, basins, clothes hangers, towels, etc.
I made two trips and ended up moving a few bonsai trees.
The two of them decorated the house in the afternoon, and by the time everything was done it was already evening.
For their first meal together, Qin Shiqing insisted on cooking it herself, which would make it more of a ritual, so she dragged Su Zelin to the market.
Although supermarkets also sell vegetables, Qin Shiqing prefers the feeling of shopping in the vegetable market, which has more choices than supermarkets and has a more down-to-earth feel.
On the way to the market, Su Zelin passed by a Green Source electric vehicle store and bought an electric car. For short-distance travel, especially to places like the vegetable market, this car is more convenient. You can even drive directly into the market, which is not possible with a car.
Lvyuan is also a well-known brand in the province. In 2004, it was the first to apply a new type of brushless program motor and launched the first high-power electric vehicle, equipped with an EABS electromagnetic braking system and energy recovery technology, which means that electrical energy is recovered during braking. Both battery life and safety are guaranteed, so I bought the new model without hesitation.
These days, electric scooters don’t need to be registered. You can just swipe a card and get an invoice and go on the road. You don’t even need a driver’s license, so it’s very convenient.
I rode an electric bike to the market, and it was surprisingly big, two or three times the size of the market that Jiang Lan's family usually went to, so it was quite wise to buy a small electric scooter.
Otherwise, it would take a lot of time just to wander around this vegetable market.
There was a wide variety of meat, poultry, fruits, vegetables, seafood and local products, and Qin Shiqing became excited all of a sudden.
Maybe because she often accompanies Liu Sufen and Zhao Lixia to the market to buy vegetables, and influenced by her two mothers, she also particularly likes the feeling of going to the market, especially with her boyfriend by her side.
"Xiao Linzi, this grass carp is pretty good. It looks so fresh. How about we make some sweet and sour fish tonight?"
"Wow, these greens are so tender, I have to buy some!"
"How about two pieces of bacon? If we don't have time to go out and buy groceries, we can make do with a meal then!"
"Xiao Linzi, let me tell you, these eggs are obviously laid by mountain chickens. They are not very big, but they are delicious!"
"… "
Su Zelin discovered that his childhood sweetheart's behavior at the vegetable market was just like his mother's. This was good, that was nice, and she wanted to buy a little bit of everything, as if she wanted to move the entire market back home.
Soon there were big and small bags, and Qin Shiqing had no intention of stopping, so Su Zelin had to step forward to stop her.
"Well, wife, you have to know that the capacity of the refrigerator in our rental house is not very large. If you buy more, it will not fit in!"
"That's right!"
After her boyfriend reminded her, Qin Shiqing finally stopped her crazy grocery shopping mode.
"Our rental house is good in every way, except that the rent is a bit expensive and the refrigerator is too small!"
She felt a little regretful and always felt that something was missing.
"Well, don't buy so much. The market is so close anyway, and we bought an electric scooter. We can come over anytime. If you buy too much at once, you won't have the chance to go to the market tomorrow!"
"Well, okay, I won't buy so much next time. I've bought almost everything today, so let's go home."
Speaking of going home, the girl couldn't help but smile brightly.
Even though I'm just renting a house, I live with my boyfriend and it becomes my own warm little home.
I drove my electric scooter back to the community where I rented an apartment.
Fortunately I bought this, otherwise it would be difficult to carry so many big and small bags.
It was already late, so the two started cooking. Qin Shiqing was the chef, and Hunzi helped out by preparing the ingredients.
In fact, Su Zelin’s cooking skills are better than his girlfriend’s. After all, he was considered a half-gourmet in his previous life. He has tasted all kinds of home-cooked dishes, high-end dishes, and rare dishes, and he has also learned a lot.
However, when his girlfriend helps with cooking, Su Zelin is usually too lazy to do it.
Although she had seen Su Zelin's knife skills, Qin Shiqing was still amazed to see him prepare a large amount of ingredients in such a short time.
What a strong wrist strength and what a fast knife!
If she had handled it, it would have taken at least twenty minutes, but her boyfriend only took five or six minutes.
With Su Zelin's help, the meal was prepared much faster.
Not long after the rice was cooked, the hot dishes were served one after another.
Since we were celebrating our first day of living together, we cooked a lot of dishes, filling up most of the table.
Qin Shiqing also went to the refrigerator and took out two bottles of Arctic Ocean that she had bought at the supermarket in the afternoon.
When there was no drinking companion, Su Zelin didn't want to drink beer, so he switched to soda.
Although carbonated drinks are not very healthy, it is really refreshing to drink one in the hot weather in July. It is not a big deal as long as you don't drink too much.
"Xiao Linzi, from now on, please take care of me!"
Qin Shiqing took the initiative to raise the Arctic Ocean. The girl's face was red, and it was unclear whether it was because she was too hot after coming out of the kitchen or because she was excited.
"Haha, you too!"
Su Zelin raised the bottle and clinked it with hers.
After taking a big gulp of the carbonated drink, I felt refreshed and comfortable all over.
"Wife, you've worked hard cooking, eat more!"
Su Zelin took the initiative to pick up a piece of fermented black bean pork ribs for Qin Shiqing.
"You eat a fish head too!"
Qin Shiqing returned the favor, as she understood the gangster's preferences.
The two ate and talked. Su Zelin looked at his childhood sweetheart with doting eyes. He remembered that in his previous life, before Qin Shiqing left, he and she had such a sweet time. It was a pity that the good times did not last long, and later he could only reminisce.
In this life, I must handle her relationship with other women and not let her leave again.
Su Zelin thought secretly in his heart.
After dinner, Qin Shiqing washed the dishes and put them in the sterilizer, wiped the table, and then her cell phone rang.
It’s from Little Swallow.
I have officially become a teacher of Lin'an No. 4 Middle School.
The school is on holiday at this time and classes will not start until the new semester in September. She is still at home now, but she learned that her best friend and Su Zelin went to Lin'an today.
"Shiqing, have you found a place to rent?"
Xiaoyanzi asked as soon as she opened her mouth.
"Haha, I found it. He has already moved in."
"Ah, did you find the right one so quickly? How's the environment?"
"It's pretty good. It's not far from the company. The community is relatively new and life is very convenient. There's a supermarket downstairs and a big market not far away. We'll go there to buy some groceries and cook for ourselves today."
"That's not bad. I'm tempted. Since it's close to your company, it shouldn't be too far from No. 4 Middle School and the Steam Turbine Power Building. I can consider it. I don't know if the rent is expensive. If it's suitable, we can be neighbors in the future and have each other as companions!"
Xiaoyanzi was very excited.
Lu Haoran studied mechanics, and the job he found in the provincial capital after graduation was quite ideal.
Lin'an Steam Turbine Power Group, one of the state-owned enterprises, is one of the top 500 manufacturing companies.
Although she will not teach at No. 4 Middle School until September, she will have to report to the company soon.
Xiaoyanzi has also made plans to live with her boyfriend after graduation, and they will come here together to find a rental house later.
"The rent is a little expensive. After all, the location and environment of this community are good. Moreover, Zelin and I rented a two-living room, three-bedroom apartment with complete electrical appliances and furniture. However, the agent told us that there are some one-living room, two-bedroom and one-living room, one-bedroom apartments in this community that are cheaper. If we rent for a long time, it would be more cost-effective to find an apartment that does not require moving in with just a suitcase and purchase electrical appliances and furniture ourselves!"
"I think one living room and two bedrooms will be enough, leaving a guest room so that if Haoran and his parents come over, they will have a place to stay! Okay, we'll go there next week and take a look at your community first. By the way, Shiqing, how does it feel to live together? Will you feel uncomfortable?"
"No, I think it's great. You and Haozi will probably like this feeling soon."
"I hope so. Some people say that if two people stay together for too long, they will get bored easily and even have conflicts."
"Little Swallow, don't worry. How could there be any conflict between Haozi and you? He is the kind of person who listens to you in everything!"
"Hehe, there's nothing to say about Haozi. He's much less troublesome than your Su Zelin!"
"… "
The two best friends chatted for a long time before hanging up the phone.
Su Zelin, who was watching the news, asked casually, "Does Xiaoyanzi want to rent here too?"
"She said she would consider it because our community is not far from No. 4 Middle School and the Steam Turbine Power Building, but she had to go to the site first to see the environment and then make a decision based on the rental situation!"
Qin Shiqing said excitedly: "It would be great if I could be neighbors with Xiaoyanzi and Haozi, so we can have dinner together often in the future!"
Su Zelin nodded slightly, thinking that this was a good idea. Besides being able to meet his good friends at any time, even if he went out to hang out in the future, and Qin Shiqing was bored at home, she could still find her good sisters to chat with.
"Xiaoyanzi and Haozi will arrive in Lin'an next Wednesday, right? I'll ask the real estate agency to keep an eye out for a suitable house with one living room and two bedrooms, which doesn't require moving in right away. The key is that the rent should be cheap, right?"
When Qin Shiqing was talking to Xiao Yanzi on the phone just now, he was sitting next to her and heard some of what was said.
"Yes, rent is very important. Xiaoyanzi said that if it's too expensive, she can't afford it. She and Haozi still have to save money to buy a house, so they should save as much as possible!"
"Yeah, I see."
Suddenly thinking of something, Qin Shiqing said worriedly: "Xiao Linzi, Xiao Yanzi also said that two people will get bored easily if they stay together for a long time. If we continue to live together like this, will you dislike me one day?"
"Wife, you think too much!"
Su Zelin laughed dumbly: "I have known you since we were little. We go to and from school every day and see each other at home all day. It has been 21 years. If I wanted to get tired of you, I would have gotten tired of you a long time ago!"
"That's different, we weren't together before!"
"Many couples were fine before they lived together, but after that, conflicts arose, and gradually they started to dislike each other, quarreled, and even broke up."
"I had a senior schoolmate who was like this before she graduated and insisted on living together with her boyfriend. But they broke up within a year of living together."
Qin Shiqing frowned.
"Others are others, and we are us."
Su Zelin hugged his childhood sweetheart's slender waist and comforted her softly, "Besides the difficulty in getting along, most of these cohabitation conflicts are related to material life."
"As the saying goes, poor couples have many sorrows. After graduation, there is not only the romance of love, but also the daily necessities of life. With the pressure of life weighing on you, you will gradually find that love is not what you imagined."
"But the same problem won't happen to us, because your husband and I are rich, and we don't need to worry about food and clothing!"
"Qin Shiqing, you just need to enjoy life! In short, I can swear that I will never get tired of you, otherwise God will..."
Before the gangster could finish his words, the girl covered his mouth.
"I was just asking you casually, why do you always like to swear?"
Qin Shiqing was complaining but also very happy.
Girls in love like to ask such boring questions, hoping to get the answers they want to hear from their boyfriends, and they will ask them frequently.
Su Zelin secretly said that he was really embarrassed and swore that he was used to it, so he just spoke it out.
But he absolutely meant what he said.
Although the gangsters like new things, they don't get tired of the old ones.
Unlike some scumbags, after they have a new partner, they find the old partner annoying and boring, and they become an emotional burden, so they want to get rid of them as soon as possible.
This kind of man is a complete scumbag. He has no attachment to his old relationship at all. Once they break up, he will make the woman hate him to the core.
Those men who can still make women love and hate them after breaking up are usually just fickle but not heartless.
We chatted and watched TV, and before we knew it, it was already past ten o'clock.
"Wife, it's getting late. We have to go to the company tomorrow morning. Let's go to bed early."
Without waiting for Qin Shiqing's consent, he turned off the TV without saying a word, picked up his girlfriend by the waist and walked towards the master bedroom.
On the first day of living together, you definitely have to be intimate.
When going to the supermarket downstairs to buy daily necessities, Su Zelin also bought a few boxes of small umbrellas.
But this thing is no longer important now.
The reason why Qin Shiqing was anxious and suffered from endocrine disorders was because she had not yet graduated and was afraid of being expelled from school because of her big belly.
Now that I have graduated, I won’t feel any psychological pressure even if I get pregnant.
Su Zelin suddenly had an idea.
If Qin Shiqing and I had a child in our previous life, would she still leave me
The bond of blood might lead to a completely different outcome.
