Chapter 1093: Chapter 1117: He’s Leaving (2)
Nianyang’s shock slowly faded from her face, and she calmly asked, "When did you buy it?"
"Three months ago." Li Tingyan replied honestly, "Just a few days before our wedding. At that time, you hadn’t woken up yet, and I had already decided on this place. These months, I’ve been having people work on the renovations, which were just finished yesterday."
So the arrangements were made so early. Nianyang’s eyes felt a bit warm, then she righteously asked, "How much did you spend? This can’t be cheap, right?"
"The house, plus renovations and hiring workers, cost over 600,000 altogether."
Over 600,000?
Nianyang gasped, her eyes widened, "Aren’t you earning just 2,000 yuan a month now? Where did you get so much money? Did you rob a bank?"
Li Tingyan smirked, "My bonuses from going out to sea this half-year came in, adding up to tens of thousands. Plus, you forgot, I invested in Chu Zhan’s computer development company. It’s growing bigger and more profitable. I got 300,000 as my share this year, and then I advanced another 300,000 from Chu Zhan for next year."
Nianyang exclaimed, then reached to twist his ear, "Oh, so you dared to hide private money!"
"???
Isn’t the wife getting the wrong priority here?"
Li Tingyan admitted sheepishly, "All my savings are with you. This money was just from this year’s income. We’ve gotten married and I didn’t even give you a proper wedding, so it felt like I was shortchanging you, which is why I had this idea."
Nianyang let go of his ear, "So what about our previous small apartment?"
"I sold it, and used the money for the renovations."
"Luxury!" Nianyang huffed, "It’s just the two of us. What’s the difference where we live? Both the Big Courtyard at your place and my place are huge. Why spend so much on a quadrangle, you’re so extravagant."
"My place is your in-laws’, and your place is your parental home."
He corrected her, "Neither of those is our own home. Think about it, we can’t keep living in the Big Courtyard forever, right? Plus, now that you’re pregnant and the child will grow up, if it’s a son, he’ll need to marry too. We can’t all live with both families, can we?"
That’s true.
"And the location I chose is really good. There are various shops around, so buying things is convenient. It’s close to our homes, making coming and going very convenient. If family visits, it’s easy for them to come and play."
Nianyang smiled a little, "You’ve really thought it through thoroughly."
"Originally, I wanted to buy a villa," Li Tingyan scratched the back of his head again,
"But considering my status, I can’t live in too lavish a house, so I had to wrong you with just a quadrangle. The house is in solely your name."
Nianyang felt warmth in her heart and intentionally said, "Tingyan, you only put it in my name? Aren’t you afraid I’ll kick you out and take off with the house?"
It may be worth only 600,000 now, but in 20 years, it won’t go for anything less than millions.
Nianyang, now holding a millions-worth property, felt very apprehensive.
She had thought she found a poor man, but turns out he’s a hidden domineering CEO.
"Take the house as you wish, as long as you’re mine," Li Tingyan said, chuckling gently, "But Nini, buying this house left me with nothing now, so I have no gold for you. My mom said, when marrying a wife nowadays, you must buy gold rings and necklaces for her. Once I get next year’s dividends, I’ll make it up to you entirely."
