Chapter 114: Regret

Qiao Lan found her voice after nearly five seconds of stagnation, and asked with tentative trepidation, "...... Buy?"

I don't blame Qiao Lan for thinking this way, Tan Mo has no sense of spending money, and because she is afraid of trouble, she spends as much as she can, and even after being together for so long, Qiao Lan can't get used to this.

Tan Mo answered quickly this time, "Rented!"

The invitation for praise is extraordinarily obvious.

Qiao Lan smiled in surprise, "You actually know how to rent an apartment?"

"You said you wanted to save money", Tan Mo hugged Qiao Lan and rubbed her cheek, then nibbled on her earlobe before continuing in a low voice, "There's actually a secondary reason."

Qiao Lan cringed at the bite, "What."

"The house I'm looking at, the owner is only interested in renting it."

Qiao Lan : "...... That's the main reason, right?"

"It doesn't matter", it doesn't matter how the house came to be, Tan Mo decides to skip the subject.

After dinner, there were no classes in the evening and tomorrow was a weekend, so Qiao Lan didn't know where to go, so Tan Mo took Qiao Lan to see the house she had rented.

The house is near the school.

The Qiao Lan girls are in the new district, and the old district had a hard time expanding downtown, so they built a new district.

The new school district is not as expensive, the school district is large, and the surrounding school districts are building one house after another, there are many choices of houses and they are all new, and the environment of the neighborhood is very nice.

Tan Mo is not very familiar with the road, Qiao Lan is not sure how he signed the rent contract and took the key, looking at the address of the two searched for a long time to find this side of the garden house, a total of seven floors high, and the surrounding small high-rise ten or twenty floors of a fairly harmonious blend together.

Tan Mo confirms the room number and pulls Qiao Lan into the building, which has two units on the first floor, Tan Mo stops on the right side of the first floor.

"First floor?" Qiao Lan was a bit surprised, not expecting Tan Mo to choose the first floor.

Tan Mo said to Qiao Lan as she opened the room, "No, this is Uncle Chen's room, Aunt Chen likes to grow flowers."

Garden house, the first floor of the room can best reflect the word garden, a small one garden, and underground garage, really very suitable for older people to live.

Uncle Chen Auntie Chen lives quite well.

Qiao Lan was quite surprised that Uncle Chen was able to come over, as she grew up with no relatives and actually likes crowds.

But it was too late to be happy, it was more of a disconcerting moment.

The two-family house on the first floor is really big, definitely over a hundred and thirty-four at eye level, with only two bedrooms, but both with their own bathrooms very large in size.

"Don't we live here," Qiao Lan looked at the two bedrooms, it was hard to tell which was the master bedroom and which was the second, but there was more than enough room for all of us to live together as Jedi.

Tan Mo pulled Qiao Lan from the room, "We don't live here, we're on the top floor."

After saying this, he paused, and came close to Qiao Lan's ear to add, "It's inconvenient to live with an adult."

What inconvenience?

Qiao Lan subconsciously wanted to ask, but the words were suppressed.

Qiao Lan : ...... What else could be inconvenient?

But... But ....

Well nothing but, Qiao Lan felt hopelessly ashamed but seemed to have a little something to look forward to.

Qiao Lan is now alive and kicking, having put her last full day in bed behind her.

Tan Mo opened the window to ventilate the room, then brought Qiao Lan out and turned towards the elevator. This was the house he had picked for a long time, and it was for this reason that he had booked it all at once.

"The penthouse is different from the ground floor, there is a design that I like very much," Tan Mo said with bright eyes to Qiao Lan, Qiao Lan asked what it was, Tan Mo winked, "I won't tell you yet, just go up and you'll know."

It's not like the top floor has the same floor plan as the other floors.

Qiao Lan went in, only to feel more empty, perhaps because there is no furniture so it seems empty, the house is particularly well decorated, just like the real estate property side of the model house, very clean and exquisite.

Tan Mo told Qiao Lan that the owner said that the house was originally decorated by the owner to prepare for their own living, but later because of the family's children go to school so moved to the children's school near the school district housing, the house has been idle, hung an advertisement but to date has not been rented out, let alone sold, so so new and clean.

Qiao Lan said, "It's only a problem if you can rent it out.

College students do not have a lot of expenses, usually small couples out to rent a house enough to live on, always save money, who will rent such a large and expensive house.

Although Qiao Lan didn't ask Tan Mo how much the rent was for this house, but after seeing the house she already had an idea in her mind, it's not cheap, Tan Mo wasn't very interested in the regular equipment on the first floor, and dragged Qiao Lan up the stairs to look at the small attic up there.

There was only one room in the small attic, but there was also a small garden on the top floor, Qiao Lan thought that she could buy a treadmill or something to exercise here, and before Qiao Lan could say anything, she was dragged into the only room in the small attic by Tan Mo.

Once inside, Qiao Lan felt like she was suffocating.

A house, empty inside, nothing but a good-sized round bathtub.

Tan Mo was visibly excited and happy, he hadn't actually seen the real thing, he had just seen the photos and then the head of the family had come to the school to sign the contract, and now after seeing it he realized that it was even better than he had expected.

Tan Mo Thinking back to the last time I was at the hotel, that bathtub was a bit small.

This tub is just so satisfying.

Taking Qiao Lan in her arms she whispered and nibbled on her ear, "Isn't that great."

Qiao Lan: "......"

She really underestimated the thickness of Tan Mo's skin again and again, and when Uncle Chen saw this, Qiao Lan felt numb just thinking about it.

"Isn't it..."

Qiao Lan struggles a bit, "... Isn't that too much."

"No exaggeration", Tan Mo shook his head without even thinking about it, and thought about the future in passing, "When I graduate I can buy one of those with a small outdoor swimming pool..."

Swimming pool, you also open air, Qiao Lan cover this person's mouth, "What do you head think all day long."

Tan Mo kissed Qiao Lan right on the palm of her hand, "Missed you."

I want to earn more money in order to give you a better life, I want to buy a better house because I want to live with you more happily, always everything is related to Qiao Lan.

"Tomorrow we'll go out to buy furniture and electrical appliances", Tan Mo pulled Qiao Lan down to the attic, and handed the keys to Qiao Lan, planning as she walked outside, "First buy the bed, refrigerator and other essentials, and then we can add more slowly, and on Monday you'll be taken to the class teacher to apply for off-campus housing. When Monday comes, you'll go to the class teacher to apply for off-campus housing. Uncle Chen and Auntie Chen will probably be here in a few days..."

Qiao Lan let Tan Mo lead her, listening to her rambling words, the corners of her lips rising little by little.

She has been with Tan Mo for nine months now, and she has seen her progress and changes in her heart.

Watching the once withdrawn teenager who could only read and study, become fond of laughing and talking, though only in front of her, but isn't this his truest true feelings.

The truest is what shows real progress.

He grows little by little, slowly no longer need her care, but began to take care of her, slowly become more and more responsible and responsible, no matter big or small, are step by step to become the one who can make the decision to let her go to rely on that person.

Qiao Lan couldn't help but wonder what the hell he was doing in the first place, and if this wasn't proof of his progress.

However, one seems to be getting really depraved.

Having lived for twenty years, she never felt that it was better to rely on others than to rely on herself, so what she could do herself must be done by herself, although her power was not great but she did not need to rely on others.

But now, really, it's completely degraded. Tan Mo is getting better at taking care of people and enjoying being taken care of herself.

Qiao Lan covered her face and spat at herself for being "unproductive", Tan Mo pulled her hands away and asked her what was wrong.

"I feel like I'm getting wasted," as if I had no hands, Qiao Lan winks, "and don't have to do anything with you around."

Tan Mo is instantly happier, and feels that he hasn't done enough to make Qiao Lan even more "wasted" - to make his mark on Qiao Lan's life even heavier.

I went back to the dormitory to sleep at night, and then early the next morning I was jolted awake by a phone call from Tan Mo, and was taken to buy furniture in a daze.

The pretty lady at the home office casually asked how many beds they would like to buy, Qiao Lan was going to say one, but then thought that one was not quite enough, if someone came to stay at the house once in a while, there would have to be a guest room and so on, and if they quarrelled they would not have to sleep in separate beds.

No real fights so far though.

Tan Mo took the lead when he hesitated, Tan Mo didn't even have to think about it and said one, Qiao Lan thought about it but still said, "Why don't we buy two..."

"Why?"

"Suppose we have a fight and then..."

"No way, how could we have a fight", Tan Mo shook his head decisively.

Next to the sister selling furniture is already married, a hearing instantly laughed, it is really a young hot young love period, to say such words, two people living which is not quarrel.

Smiling, he also chipped in and said a few words, "Actually, buying two does make it more convenient, and in the future the family will have a place to stay when they come to the house."

"They live downstairs," Tan Mo says, and the sister is put off, grabbing Qiao Lan and Qiao Lan to explain why that's not possible.

"I listen to everything you say, so there's no way we're going to fight, and even if we do really really fight, then no sleeping in separate beds, just get one!"

Qiao Lan : "...... One by one."

All yours.

There's the couch anyway!

The move was such a heavy task, but Tan Mo managed to solve it in one weekend. After applying to the homeroom teacher on Monday, Qiao Lan and Tan Mo invited their dormitory mates to dinner on Monday afternoon as a farewell.

Tan Mo's side, a few boys are chatting like crazy, they have a really good relationship, although Xie Hongyi is disgusted by Tan Mo's show of love every day, but it's still a little bit sad that they have to leave now.

I was sad for a while and then I thought it was okay, I'd see it in class anyway.

Kong Sha nodded, "Pretty good, I might have to move out later too."

Xie Hongyi: "Huh? What are you moving out for? With whom?"

Kong Sha glanced at Xie Hongyi as if he hadn't heard him, and went on talking to Tan Mo.

Qiao Lan this side is calm, Liu Cancan a little sad, although the feelings are not too deep, but just think about the future of the dormitory in the remaining two people, a dragon do not see the tail, a Luo Man every day quarrel, the only normal communication Qiao Lan is also going to go.

Luo Man curiously kept asking where Qiao Lan's house was, and Liu Cancan was not happy to ask why she was inquiring.

"I'm sure you'll be able to play with Lanlan sometime."

Qiao Lan hadn't planned to tell Luo Man in the first place, and once she heard that, she thought it would be better if she didn't communicate with this girl.

"Ugh I'm really envious of you", Luo Man sighed, "When will I be able to catch up with my senior?"

Qiao Lan remembered Tan Mo's jealousy of Ji Su earlier and sincerely wished Luo Man, "Go for it, you can definitely catch up."

"Thanks~"

Luo Man is smiling so sweetly.

Two days later, Ji Su sent a message to Luo Man, telling her to go to the club and ask him if Qiao Lan was there, and if so, to bring her along.

Luo Man wrote to Ji Su, [Senior, Lanlan moved out with her boyfriend, I don't know where she is now, why don't I go there first? [Good girl JPG]]

After a long period of silence, Ji Su wrote back, saying that the professor had something for him and that he didn't need to come over for the time being.

[Okay.]

Luo Man is so disappointed, but still considerately says that the teacher's side is more important.

Ji Su looked at the pile of tweets Luo Man was rambling on about.

This girl was specially transferred in for Qiao Lan in the first place.

Now, what a fucking regret.
