Reborn in the 80s: She Rewrites Life with Radiance-Chapter 74 Buying a House

"I think it’s pretty good, the house size is just right, it’s close to the school, and I really like the decoration."

Gu said softly to Li Yitian while looking around.

Li Yitian glanced at the homeowner standing on the other side and nudged Gu’s arm with his elbow.

"Even if you like it, don’t show it, or it will be hard to negotiate the price later."

"Okay, then I’ll listen to you. Let’s check out the next place."

Gu thought about it and felt Li Yitian had a point.

"Sorry, your house is quite nice, but we want to look at other places before making a decision."

Li Yitian spoke to the homeowner in B City dialect deliberately.

"Hey, young man, my house is really good, why don’t you take another look? Besides, you’re a local; we wouldn’t cheat you. Young lady, if you buy it, you can use it directly as a wedding house without having to renovate, isn’t that good?"

The homeowner saw Li Yitian constantly consulting Gu’s opinion, thinking they were about to get married and looking to buy a wedding house.

His son and daughter-in-law were also in a hurry, saying they had already found a new house and were just waiting for the money to finalize it.

It’s been listed for quite some time, but no one is wealthy nowadays.

People tend to buy smaller places, so he hasn’t found a suitable buyer.

But looking at these two, he thought they wanted to buy a bigger one and could afford it.

"Uncle, you misunderstood. We’re just friends. I’m the one buying the house. How much are you planning to sell it for?"

Gu didn’t blame him, just explained.

"Oh oh, sorry, sorry, misunderstood. This house is 138 square meters, the unrenovated price is 500 per square meter, which is 69,000 altogether. But I spent 20,000 on renovations, so I’ll offer it for just 89,000. How about it?"

The homeowner was probably really pressed; although the price was a bit higher than others, he wasn’t asking for much.

Gu did not respond but looked directly at Li Yitian.

Li Yitian quickly calculated; the price seemed reasonable.

"Sorry, we need to discuss it."

Li Yitian smiled apologetically at the homeowner and pulled Gu into another room.

"Yiyi, the homeowner seems sincere about selling and probably needs money urgently, so the price he offered is quite reasonable. But 85,000 should snag it. Do you have enough money? If not, I can chip in."

Gu gave Li Yitian a strong pat on the shoulder.

"You had such a serious expression, I was worried it was something big. It scared me! I have enough money, don’t worry."

Gu actually had quite a bit of money.

Her breakfast shop brought in over 20,000, and she had over 50,000 from Li Yitian.

The big share was with Liang Yesheng, who distributed last year’s entire profit of over 200,000 at a 5% share, increased to 10% this year.

So she’s now a truly wealthy woman.

"Yitian, for your generosity, I’ll bring you along if anything good comes up."

Li Yitian looked at her smug expression and chose to ignore her.

But he never expected Gu would keep her promise shortly and let him make buckets of money.

"Alright then, once you’ve decided, I’ll go and negotiate the price, so you can move in sooner."

"Alright, thanks."

Gu said thanks, but happily directed the process.

Li Yitian sometimes wondered if he had a servant’s heart, enjoying being bossed around.

Finally, Gu bought the house for 85,000.

The owner learned from Li Yitian that Gu was from out of town, eager to move in, and promised that as soon as paperwork was completed, they’d hand over the house.

They arranged to meet at the property center at nine the next morning to complete the paperwork.

"You sure have a knack for purchasing, aren’t people supposed to compare before buying? You should at least look at other houses."

Even though Li Yitian liked this house, he still thought Gu was a bit hasty and worried she might regret it later.

"Haven’t you heard ’strike first to gain the advantage?’ If you love it, act fast, or someone else might snatch it."

Gu knew Li Yitian was concerned she might regret it later, but she wouldn’t.

Even though buying a house could be profitable, she didn’t want to invest everything in this. She planned to save money to invest elsewhere and earn more.

Right now, she wanted to settle down here, study well, and follow her plans step by step.

"Alright, as long as you like it. Where are you headed now? The shop or back to the hotel to rest?"

Knowing he couldn’t convince Gu, Li Yitian gave up.

"Drop me at the department store; I want to buy some things for the new house to avoid missing out later."

Li Yitian dropped Gu at the department store.

"Should I come pick you up?"

Li Yitian asked before Gu got out of the car.

"No need, I don’t know how long I’ll be shopping. If I’m done, I’ll call for a ride back to the hotel."

Gu declined his offer.

"Okay, I’ll pick you up tomorrow morning to go to the property center then."

Gu realized she wasn’t too familiar with the area.

"Alright, thanks, drive safe."

Gu watched as Li Yitian’s car drove away before heading into the department store.

She went to the bedding shop.

It’s hot now, so she planned to buy two sets of pure cotton four-piece bedding sets, just enough to have spares.

"Can you deliver these quilts, pillows, and bed to my address?"

Gu asked the shop assistant.

"Sure, just provide us with the delivery time and address."

"Alright, I’ll give you the address tomorrow."

Finally, Gu just bought two sets of four-piece bedding sets and went back.

They were too heavy, making shopping inconvenient.

Plus, she hadn’t received the keys yet. If she bought stuff, she’d have to bring it back to the hotel, then move it to the new home later.

Gu thought it better to get the keys and have them delivered directly to the house. If not, she’d ask Li Yitian to help move her stuff. ƒreewebηoveℓ.com

She found herself relying comfortably on Li Yitian’s help. If Li Yifan knew this, would he have any issues with her?

With Ye Hao covering for her, even if there were issues, it probably wouldn’t directly affect her.

She brushed off the thought quickly.

After going back, Gu borrowed the hotel’s laundry room to wash all the bedding sets.

She climbed to the rooftop and hung everything out to dry.

By evening, when collected, they were filled with the scent of sunshine.

Thinking she’d have her own place in B City tomorrow, Gu felt quite excited.

Not wanting to disturb Ye Hao, she didn’t call him to share the news.

But she really missed Ye Hao. If he were here, they could share this good news together, instead of her imagining their beautiful future all alone.
