Chapter 195 Coincidence
Chapter 195 Coincidence
The guesthouse is not far from the university, and there are all kinds of snacks around it.
Li Wanqing and her two companions found a state-run breakfast shop, sat down, ordered some soy milk and fried dough sticks, and bought meat buns for Nuonuo.
While eating, Li Wanqing told Cheng Baichuan about buying a house.
"So sudden?"
I just talked about buying a house yesterday, and you've already bought it today?
Even Cheng Baichuan, who was usually calm, was extremely surprised.
Li Wanqing said with a smile, "It was just a coincidence. When I came back yesterday, I happened to find a suitable house."
"We'll treat the comrades who helped us to a meal later to properly thank them."
Cheng Baichuan nodded hesitantly, "We really should thank them properly."
Their execution is simply amazing.
"Let me introduce you two, since you'll be attending the same school anyway," Li Wanqing added.
"Is he a student at the Military Science and Technology University?" Cheng Baichuan frowned slightly. How did Li Wanqing know someone from the Military Science and Technology University?
"It's all thanks to my uncle's kindness; otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to find such a good location since I'm unfamiliar with the area."
Li Wanqing tore off a piece of fried dough stick for Cheng Baichuan; it was too big for her to finish.
Cheng Baichuan took the fried dough stick, looking surprised. "Uncle knows people from the Military Science and Technology University?"
"Strange, isn't it?" Li Wanqing smiled. "I was shocked when I heard about it too."
"Since you're going to the Military Academy of Sciences, let's visit that old professor together before you go back."
Cheng Baichuan didn't say anything after hearing this. As a junior, it's only natural to visit one's elders.
Since it was still early after breakfast, Li Wanqing took Cheng Baichuan to see the house they had just bought.
Seeing the yard full of weeds, Cheng Baichuan suddenly felt like his wife had been tricked.
Despite having such a dilapidated courtyard, his wife treated it like a treasure.
Li Wanqing said with a smile, "Don't be fooled by how unremarkable it looks now, the yard is big, no worse than an apartment building."
Looking at his wife's silly smiling face, Cheng Baichuan sighed slightly.
Everyone else is scrambling to live in apartment buildings, but only his silly wife doesn't mind living in this bungalow.
It's because I'm not capable enough that I can't provide my wife with a good life.
Since his wife liked it, he couldn't discourage her.
"Okay, I'll pack up slowly after I get to the Military Academy of Sciences."
"We'll pick you and your daughter up after we've finished packing."
Li Wanqing pointed to the room and said, "It's okay to tidy up, but the furniture inside needs to be tidied up properly, as do the walls, floors, and windows."
Cheng Baichuan looked up and exclaimed, "Wow, this is a massive project!"
"Don't worry, leave it all to me."
After viewing the house, it wasn't time for dinner yet, so the family locked the door and prepared to go out for a walk.
They had only taken a couple of steps when they heard a roar coming from the yard next door.
"You brat, I told you to go on a blind date, but you didn't even bother to tidy yourself up. With the look on your face, what girl would want you?"
"Eat, eat, eat! Keep eating, or we'll be late!"
.......
Cheng Baichuan and Li Wanqing exchanged a glance. Adhering to the principle of not looking at or listening to what is improper, neither of them wanted to stop.
Just as I passed the gate, the courtyard gate opened.
A man in military uniform staggered out, a steamed bun dangling from his mouth.
"Mom, stop rushing me! I've finally come back, aren't you going to let me eat my fill first?"
"Eat, eat, all you do is eat! If you don't find a wife to come back to, don't bother coming back."
"Mom..." Shi Yong turned his head and saw Cheng Baichuan's family. He immediately felt a chill run down his spine. "Cheng Baichuan? What are you doing here?"
At such an embarrassing moment, of all times, this guy saw it.
When he goes back to the military, will he still have any face left?
Cheng Baichuan didn't speak, but Li Wanqing coughed and said, "Let's take a walk around the neighborhood."
Shi Yong didn't pay much attention, but when Aunt Shi came out and saw them, her eyes lit up with a smile.
"I heard yesterday that Old Wang's yard next door was sold. Could it be that you bought it?"
Li Wanqing was slightly taken aback. She hadn't wanted to talk about this, but now that people had asked, she couldn't hide it anymore.
Li Wanqing nodded, "I really didn't expect it to be such a coincidence that I'm your neighbor. I'll have to rely on you for help in the future."
Aunt Shi smiled and said, "It's no big deal. Let's keep in touch. I really adore your daughter."
Nuonuo sweetly called out "Grandma Shi," and Grandma Shi was overjoyed.
Shi Yong tried to tease Nuonuo, but was chased away by Aunt Shi.
"Come on, come on, you want one? Then hurry up and find a wife for yourself."
"Now that you have a wife, why worry about not having a daughter to take care of?"
Shi Yong was speechless and muttered something under his breath. Aunt Shi gave him a cold look.
"What are you muttering about?"
Shi Yong quickly shook his head, "It's nothing, it's nothing."
Aunt Shi warmly pulled Li Wanqing and Nuonuo along, "Come on, let's go to Aunt Shi's house for a cup of tea."
Li Wanqing politely declined, saying, "Auntie, we'll definitely bother you next time."
Aunt Shi didn't push it too hard, after all, she had just bought a house and was probably going to be busy.
After saying that, he grabbed a handful of candy from inside the house and stuffed it into Nuonuo's hand, saying, "These are all homemade, just to sweeten Nuonuo's mouth."
Nono glanced at her mother, and only accepted the gift after seeing her nod. "Thank you, Grandma Shi."
Aunt Shi was so envious, and now she gets angry just looking at her own son.
Useless things!
He can't even find a wife!
Shi Yong shrank back, turned and ran, saying, "Mom, I'm leaving first."
Seeing her son's good-for-nothing behavior, Aunt Shi sighed helplessly.
"They're all debt collectors."
Li Wanqing and Cheng Baichuan exchanged a glance; it was someone else's family matter, and they shouldn't say anything.
After saying goodbye to Aunt Shi, the family left.
In the past few days, Li Wanqing and Nuonuo have visited many places, while Cheng Baichuan seems to be unfamiliar with them.
"You've been in Taipei for so long, and you've never come out?" Li Wanqing asked, puzzled.
Cheng Baichuan smiled helplessly, "I'm here to participate in the competition. This is my first time coming out after a completely closed training camp."
Li Wanqing patted his shoulder sympathetically, "It's okay, I'll show you around today."
“Sister?” Cheng Baichuan’s eyes darkened, deep and distant. “I remember, I should be older than you.”
Li Wanqing chuckled, "Don't worry about so many details!"
Nono tugged at her father's pants and pointed to a spot not far away, "Daddy, is that an ice pop?"
There are popsicles sold in the military area, but she is young and her stomach is not very good when the weather is hot.
Li Wanqing had never bought it for her.
Now, when I see an ice pop, I can't help but lick my lips.
Before Cheng Baichuan could speak, Li Wanqing refused, "Nuonuo, be good, eating popsicles will make your tummy hurt."
Nuonuo lowered her head slightly; how could Cheng Baichuan see his daughter's sadness?
I strode off and bought one.
