Ye Huaiye really had the advantage of being a local, and he quickly helped Zhao Shichu find a more suitable house. So when the weekend came, Zhao Shichu called Zhao Shijian to go with Ye Huaiye to look at houses.
The house is a blue brick house with a yard and a private entrance. It is very nice even in the capital. Zhao Shichu and Zhao Shijian were very satisfied after seeing it and decided to buy it with the owner without saying a word.
The homeowner and the siblings went to the Housing Authority to handle the transfer. When the siblings were filling out the information, the homeowner quietly pulled Ye Huaiye aside and asked him in a low voice, "Huaiye, are these two your relatives? Why haven't you seen them before?"
It turned out that the owner of the house was a friend Ye Huaiye had known since childhood and knew him well. He needed to sell a house to ease his financial situation recently. When Ye Huaiye found out, he told the Zhao siblings.
Ye Huaiye shook his head and said, "No, but my old man got a lot of help from them when he went to the countryside. He knew that they wanted to buy a house in Beijing, so he helped them."
The homeowner was a little surprised and said, "Did they help your grandfather when they went to the countryside? Then they must have known about it, right? You have money to buy a house right after returning to the city? That's amazing..."
"They are either educated youth or members of the township where the old man lives, and students who have just been admitted to university." Ye Huaye explained.
The homeowner was even more shocked: "They are actually from the same hometown? And they both got into college? That's even more amazing than the educated youth!"
Ye Huaiye nodded. After getting to know the Zhao siblings, he also felt that with their personalities, they would definitely have a bright future. After all, how many people who came from rural areas and had no parents could buy a house in Beijing
After the homeowner learned about the background of Zhao Shichu and his sister, he looked at them with admiration. After a closer look, he found that they were both good-looking. So he rolled his eyes and said to Ye Huaiye with a wink: "Huaiye, you have never been such an enthusiastic person. Why did you take the initiative to help these two siblings contact the house purchase this time? Don't say that they helped your grandfather. I don't believe it at all! With your personality, there are many ways to repay them. There is no need to waste your time..."
Ye Huaye glanced at him calmly and said, "Isn't it because you are the owner of the house? I am also helping you introduce a reliable buyer."
"Tsk... Are you kidding me? How dare you say that?" The landlord rolled his eyes at Ye Huaiye. "Why didn't I ask you to help me before? Tell me the truth, are you attracted to this beautiful girl?"
"Tsk tsk, this girl is pretty and has a nice temperament. You can't tell at all that she comes from a rural background. She's smart and can even get into college... She's a good match for you. You really don't have any feelings for her?" The landlord continued to ask without giving up.
Ye Huaiye looked at Zhao Shichu, who was talking to Zhao Shijian at the moment. She had an oval face, a flawless white complexion, clear almond eyes, and rosy, small lips. She smiled slightly, and a pair of charming dimples appeared on her lips...
Ye Huaiye coughed a few times, as if to cover up something, covered the owner's face with one hand, pushed his head to the other side, and said, "Shut up, don't talk nonsense and ruin the girl's reputation."
When the landlord saw his look, he was not angry even though his head was pushed away. Instead, he laughed and felt that he had exposed Ye Huaiye's thoughts, which made Ye Huaiye angry and embarrassed.
So he teased him, "Ye Huaiye, Ye Huaiye, I didn't expect you to fail! I don't know who once said that he would never get married and just live in the lab! But after only a few years, he even has a girl he likes. Tsk tsk, men's words really can't be trusted..."
"Shut up!" Ye Huaiye's handsome face flushed, and he covered the mouth of the owner's childhood friend with his hand, saying stubbornly, "It's not what you think!"
"Brother Chen, we have filled out the information!" Zhao Shichu shouted towards them. Ye Huaiye and the landlord immediately returned to their serious appearance. The landlord responded, "I'll be right over!"
The transfer process went smoothly. After paying the house price, the house became owned by Zhao Shichu and Zhao Shijian.
Zhao Shijian touched the brand new property title excitedly, unable to believe that he really had his own house in Beijing. He said, "Sister, we really have a house here!"
"Yeah, it's true. When we have time, we can come here to tidy up the house, and then we can move in next semester." Zhao Shichu could understand Zhao Shijian's excitement. After all, buying a house in the capital would be exciting even if it was bought decades later, let alone now.
"Ye Huaye, thank you. If it weren't for you, we wouldn't be able to buy such a good house. Let us treat you to a meal." Zhao Shichu said to Ye Huaye.
"There's no need to treat me to a meal. If you have nothing to do today, you can come home with me. My dad misses you a lot." Ye Huaye said directly.
"Okay, but I still have to treat you to a meal. I'm going to see Mr. Ye today, so I'll treat you to a meal next time." Zhao Shijian made the decision.
Ye Huaiye and Zhao Shichu did not object, so the three of them went to the Ye family to meet Old Man Ye and had a meal.
After that, Ye Huaye appeared more frequently in Beijing University. Zhao Shichu met him several times. He even played the role of a good host and invited him to have meals in the school cafeteria and took him to visit the school's sights.
As the number of times she met her classmates increased, she ran into them more often, and without Zhao Shichu's knowledge, rumors spread that she had a handsome and tall boyfriend outside of school.
Zhao Shichu only felt that the male classmates who had been pursuing her with various tricks had suddenly disappeared, which made her feel much more peaceful. She was too lazy to find out the reason and wished that all the peach blossoms would disappear.
Zhao Shichu first learned that she had a boyfriend from a female classmate. At that time, she "ran into" Ye Huaiye again. Walking on the path on campus, she met a female classmate who looked at them meaningfully and said, "Shichu, you're walking here with your boyfriend again?"
"Boyfriend?" Zhao Shichu was shocked. "What boyfriend?"
"Isn't this guy your boyfriend? Oh, don't hide it. Our classmates have met you several times..." the female classmate said with a smile.
Zhao Shichu was about to clarify, but Ye Huaiye beat him to it: "You are right, I am her boyfriend."
"Haha, that's what I told you! Okay, I won't bother you anymore, I'm leaving first!" The female classmate ran away very tactfully.
"When did you become my boyfriend? How come I didn't know it?" Zhao Shichu stared at Ye Huaye and asked in disbelief.
Ye Huaiye's eyes wandered for a while, and he said calmly: "Now..."
