Chapter 1339: Chapter 1328: Siblings
When the three siblings went, Ye Cheng conveniently picked up Lee Shishi, and then Ye Qiu also called Duan Yunquan.
"I originally thought about waiting until the matter with little sis was solved before house hunting, but didn’t expect you’d buy one first," Duan Yunquan laughed, "If the renovation isn’t good, I’m not responsible."
"Don’t you like that minimalistic style? Don’t worry, it’s definitely cold enough."
"Do you know how to talk? What do you mean by minimalistic?" Duan Yunquan turned to knock her head, while Yu Zhijing and Lee Shishi kept giggling on the side.
"If you don’t like it, buy another one later. Anyway, I particularly like that house, good thing there are no men around," Ye Qiu huffed, showing her childish side only in front of them.
"Right, it’ll be just me and third sis living there, without you guys, I can eat more of the dishes third sis cooks," Yu Zhijing laughed while hugging Ye Qiu’s arm.
Lee Shishi envied their sibling bond, it’s truly rare to see such genuine affection without a blood relationship like theirs, and she was honored to join in. Normally, younger siblings would resent a brother bringing home a sister-in-law, but Ye Qiu and Yu Zhijing didn’t, on the contrary, they always took good care of her.
People understand gratitude, Lee Shishi unknowingly fit into the role of the elder sister-in-law, despite Ye Qiu and the others not needing her to worry, yet she always thought of them in everything she does.
Relationships between people are equal, and it was their reciprocal contributions that maintained such harmony.
The house Ye Qiu chose naturally had no issues, Nanhu was originally a wetland, later transformed into a large artificial lake, initially intended for a new commercial district, but as it was too far from the city center, it was auctioned by developers and built into a villa community.
This developer was particularly clever, knowing typical villa communities wouldn’t attract people to travel this far, so they built few and crafted exquisite villas, ensuring privacy for the wealthy as each villa couldn’t be seen by the others.
Hence, when this villa community’s plan was initially released, it received a lot of attention. If not for the developer keeping two for himself and Ye Qiu agreeing to cook three private feasts for him, this villa truly couldn’t have been acquired.
Surrounding the villa was a natural wall made of trees and flowers, the area inside was huge, with separate gardens and lawn for the ground floor and basement. There was a small pond for fountains or landscape pools as per personal preference, the swimming pool was on the third floor, accessible directly from the second floor’s mini garden.
The garage wasn’t in the basement, but in the yard; the basement was redesigned by Ye Qiu into a gym, storeroom, laundry room, etc. The first floor housed the kitchen, living room, cinema, and a nanny’s room. A barbecue grill and parasol were installed in the small lawn outside, perfect for leisure activities.
The second and third floors contained everyone’s bedrooms; two guys on the second floor, Ye Qiu and Yu Zhijing on the third. Despite being on the same floor, their suites had vast spaces, with every room equipped with large walk-in closets, bathrooms, and sunlit balconies. Additionally, each floor contained two guest bedrooms and a study, reserved for future children to vacation after marriage.
First was Ye Cheng’s room, clearly decorated to Lee Shishi’s liking, with a refreshing, clean white-green color scheme, exuding warmth and comfort.
"I’ve finally realized why you were asking me about how to decorate your brother’s marriage room recently; this surprise is enormous!" Lee Shishi exclaimed in delight.
"As long as sister-in-law likes it, this is just a vacation spot for now, I did it casually, your marriage room will be meticulously decorated in the future."
"No, this is already better than I imagined," Lee Shishi adored it. She couldn’t believe that she’ll eventually live here; she felt incredibly blessed!
"Want to see my place now?" Duan Yunquan was already impatient, honestly, this villa exceeded their expectations, which showed Ye Qiu truly put thought into it.
"As kids, we only thought about buying a big house for us all to live together, but never imagined living in such a good house," Ye Cheng mused as he looked around, "We were so poor back then, even wanted to buy an ice cream, we’d collect bottles for ages."
Ye Qiu laughed too, "I remember second brother almost got into a fight with an old lady over a trash can."
Duan Yunquan rubbed his head, "Let’s not talk about embarrassing past events."
Listening, Lee Shishi felt a whirl of emotions; though her family wasn’t wealthy, she never went hungry nor lagged behind classmates, and now hearing about her boyfriend’s childhood, she felt she’d lived in paradise.
Her admiration grew for her boyfriend’s siblings, who showed resilience and ambition, achieving heights unattainable for most young people; such determination and effort!
"Luckily, everything’s past; with evidence in hand, we can solve little sis’s issue swiftly, life will get better from now on."
As they talked, they arrived at Duan Yunquan’s room, which indeed was as Ye Qiu mentioned, minimalistic styled. In light grey tones, despite its simplicity, and although meant for guys, it struck Lee Shishi that even a girl could fall for this style.
"Looking at second brother, it seems he won’t be bringing a second sister-in-law home anytime soon. For now, it’ll be like this; if she doesn’t like it later, we’ll change," Ye Qiu said dismissively.
Duan Yunquan spoke quietly, "Do I have no choice?"
"What aesthetic does a big guy like you have? Do you think your decoration will be prettier than mine?" Ye Qiu glanced at him sideways.
Duan Yunquan was instantly speechless; he truly wasn’t confident in that aspect.
"Hurry, I’m so eager to see my room! Third sis, is it my favorite powder-blue?" Yu Zhijing asked anxiously.
"Don’t I know your taste? Want to go up and take a look?"
Entering Yu Zhijing’s room, what met the eye was a cozy beige carpet; from the entrance to the small living room inside, fairy tale characters adorned the walls, cute but not childish, with sofas and all manner of plush toys scattered around, ready to tumble onto at any time.
Yet what delighted Yu Zhijing the most was the round princess bed, a dream since childhood; she immediately dove onto it, rolling around in excitement.
"Considering you’re a star, your walk-in closet is connected to the neighboring study. I even custom-ordered dedicated shoe racks and bag shelves, check if they’re sufficient."
"They’re enough, absolutely enough! Third sis, I love you!" Yu Zhijing jumped into Ye Qiu’s arms, everyone smiled dotingly watching them.
These years among them, only the little sis worked the hardest; outwardly glamorous, but she endured the most hardships, so everyone was willing to spoil her.
