母蜂的复仇

Du Yue nodded. “I’m free. Thank you.”

After getting Du Yue’s answer, the staff member picked up the internal landline and made a call. Less than two minutes after he hung up the phone, Du Yue saw a man in work clothes jogging over. It was only when this person greeted her that Du Yue finally reacted. No wonder she felt that he looked familiar. He was the man who had shown her the house when she first entered the base.

Du Yue was still deep in thought when she saw He Xing conversing with the man. It was then that Du Yue remembered He Xing had told her that the man who brought him to look for a house was the same man who had brought her. Du Yue watched the two of them conversing and thought to herself, ‘Perhaps it’s because of so many coincidences that I met He Xing and got to be by his side until now. We’re in love and keeping each other company.’

!!

The three of them left the housing rental center together. He Xing led the way in the car with the man while Du Yue drove behind them. After about 20 minutes, He Xing’s car slowly came to a stop. Du Yue also stopped the car, pulled out the key, and got out. After alighting from the car, Du Yue looked around her. The road they were on was the most ordinary dirt road. The road faced east and west, and there were walls on both sides of the road. On the south-facing wall, there was a door not far away, and behind the door was a small courtyard with a single door.

While Du Yue was looking around, He Xing and the man had gotten out of the car. The man brought Du Yue and He Xing to the entrance of a small courtyard. He took out a key from a pile of keys and unlocked the door. The gate of the small courtyard was an ordinary fence gate, and one could see the scene in the courtyard through the gaps in the gate.

Just by looking at the structure, one could tell that the house must have been built in extremely hot weather, and this design was also for heat insulation. The rooms were empty without any furniture. The walls and floor were all made of cement without any scratches. The windows and door looked a little shabby, but the quality of the house was good. Even after the earthquake, there were no cracks. There was a small hut by the side of the yard, and the man said it was a toilet.

The courtyard was about 80 square meters, and there were three rooms facing south. All three rooms were entered from the same door. After walking in, there was a door on each of the walls on the left and right, which led to the other two rooms. The doors and windows in were not big, and the roof was tall and triangular. It was similar to the old houses in the base.

Du Yue nodded at He Xing in satisfaction after walking around the place. The two of them had been together for a long time, so they had this tacit understanding. Even if it was just a look from Du Yue, He Xing knew what she was thinking. He Xing left with the man and returned to the rental center to complete the procedures. Du Yue could drive straight into the spacious yard. After closing the gate, Du Yue began to look around the entire courtyard.

If nothing unexpected happened, she and He Xing would be living in this small house for the next few years, so she had to tidy it up after moving in. Du Yue pondered in her heart. There was no rush for the interior decoration. They could slowly decorate it in the future. The most important thing now was to surround the courtyard with an electric fence and replace the simple and crude doors and windows.

There were less than 13 days left before the arrival of the fog. An hour later, He Xing returned in his car with a house purchase contract. It was clearly stated in the contract that the small house would belong to Du Yue and He Xing from today onward.

Du Yue thought He Xing would only pay a few years’ rent. She did not expect him to buy the house directly. Du Yue was about to ask him when He Xing interrupted her, “The house the base gave me is now uninhabitable, so they gave me some compensation. I topped up some more contribution points and bought this house. I wrote our names on the contract, so this will be our home from now on.”

Du Yue and He Xing had been together for more than a year. They used to live separately, but now, not only were they moving in together, but they also had a home that belonged to the two of them. Du Yue felt that it was a wonderful feeling, and it was warm.
