"Yi Bing burst into tears as she spoke.
Huang De Han quickly consoled her, saying, 'My little darling, why are you crying? I was just lost in thought. It's just a house, right? Your husband will buy it for you, so everything will be fine now, won't it?'
The housing prices in Lijiang were not expensive. A good house would cost around ten thousand yuan per square meter, so with two million yuan, they could easily buy a great house.
By helping Brother Bing with four shipments, Huang De Han could afford a house.
Finally, Yi Bing stopped crying and smiled playfully, saying, 'You're bad. You only want to buy me a house after making me cry!'
Huang De Han reassured her, saying, 'Alright, alright, don't be angry. Tomorrow, you can go and see the houses. But I don't have much money right now. It will take some time before I have enough. So, you can go and have a look first.'
Yi Bing became unhappy and said, 'How can I go and see houses without money? I can't do something so embarrassing.'
Huang De Han replied, 'Then you'll have to wait a little longer until I have enough money. Then you can go and see.'
Yi Bing frowned and said, 'When will your money be enough? I can't keep waiting forever, can I?'
Huang De Han hadn't even asked Brother Bing yet, so how would he know how long it would take to afford a house? He regretted buying such an expensive car.
Huang De Han hesitated and said, 'Uh... it'll be soon... at the latest, not beyond next year.'
As soon as Yi Bing heard that it would take until next year to buy a house, her face fell. She said discontentedly, 'Do I have to wait that long? Can't it be sooner? What if we have children? Will you make me wait until after the child is born to buy me a house?'
Huang De Han couldn't help but smile wryly. The child wasn't even born yet, and she was already thinking that far ahead. This woman was really narrow-minded!
He comforted her, saying, 'You won't have to wait that long. Isn't the Chinese New Year coming soon? After the New Year, I'll have the money.'
'Really?' Yi Bing asked.
'Of course, I swear,' Huang De Han said, raising his right hand in a gesture of swearing.
Yi Bing's face relaxed a bit, and she said, 'You better not deceive me.'
Huang De Han hugged Yi Bing tightly, burying his head in her chest. He said, 'Don't worry, when have I ever deceived you?'
Yi Bing squirmed under Huang De Han's tickling hands and pushed him away, saying, 'Stop it. How many times a day do you want to do this? Aren't you tired?'
Huang De Han smirked and said, 'Ten times a night is fine with me. Shall we give it a try?'
Yi Bing's scalp tingled instantly, and she pleaded, 'Please spare me...'
But before she could finish her sentence, Huang De Han silenced her with a kiss.
Soon, the bed frame made rhythmic creaking sounds.
...
Huang De Han made a phone call to Brother Bing.
Yi Bing was the one who helped him get this phone card.
When the call connected, Huang De Han quickly said, 'Brother Bing, it's me, Huang De Han.'
'Oh, where are you now? What's up?' Brother Bing asked."
"I'm in Kun City now, Brother Bing. I need money, can you help me?"
There was silence on the other end for a moment before he replied, "I know some people in Kun City too. Here's what you can do: look for Li Ge, he'll show you the ropes."
With that, Brother Bing recited a string of numbers.
Huang De Han quickly jotted them down.
"Thanks, Brother Bing!"
