"Do you like it?" Sheng Chuyi’s voice came from beside her ear.
Shen Zhaozhao suddenly turned her head toward Sheng Chuyi, swallowed, and said, "The birthday gift Aunt Suxin and Uncle Sheng gave us last night, it couldn’t be this apartment, could it?"
Sheng Chuyi smiled and said, "Congratulations, you guessed right. This is the marital home mom and dad gave to us. They hired the designer who helped you with your apartment before, and everything has been decorated according to your style. Of course, if there is anything you are unsatisfied with, we can still make changes later."
Shen Zhaozhao shook her head and said, "I don’t have any complaints." The house was so large and decorated just to her liking; there was nothing she could complain about. However, presenting an apartment as a gift seemed excessively generous.
The small two-bedroom apartment she had upstairs had already cost her parents most of their life savings, and this larger one downstairs must surely be double the price?
Moreover, Aunt Suxin and Uncle Sheng were too thoughtful, buying an apartment right beneath hers, in the same building, with similar decor, just a different layout.
Shen Zhaozhao said, "I didn’t know Aunt Suxin and Uncle Sheng were giving us an apartment. Is it really okay for us to accept it?" If she had known last night, she definitely wouldn’t have accepted it so directly.
It doesn’t seem right to return it now, and besides, Yiyi already said, this is their designated marital home. Shen Zhaozhao didn’t know what to do for a moment.
Sheng Chuyi smiled and reminded, "We’ve already registered our marriage, and next time we meet, you should start changing how you address them. Since it’s a new house that mom and dad prepared for us, let’s live in it for now. In the future, just take good care of them in return."
Actually, Sheng Chuyi had also been looking at apartments recently. Since they had decided to register their marriage, he naturally felt obligated to provide a home for them. But the real estate prices in Jing City were just too high. He had earned some money in his two years of starting a business, but most of his capital had been reinvested elsewhere.
The savings weren’t enough to fully pay for an apartment in Jing City outright, and he had originally planned to make a down payment or borrow money from his parents and pay them back gradually.
But before he could even speak, his parents had already stepped in and prepared everything for him in advance.
Shen Zhaozhao nodded earnestly and said, "Don’t worry, I will surely treat Aunt Suxin and Uncle Sheng as my own parents."
Sheng Chuyi looked at her teasingly and said, "That’s right, you’ve wanted to be my mom’s daughter since you were a kid. After all these years, you’ve finally got your wish."
Thinking back to when she was young, arguing to be Aunt Suxin’s child and insisting on being Sheng Chuyi’s little wife, Shen Zhaozhao also found it amusing.
In the blink of an eye, so many years had passed.
After they finished viewing the apartment, Sheng Chuyi looked at Shen Zhaozhao and said, "Have you forgotten something?"
"What?" Shen Zhaozhao blinked in confusion.
He took the marriage certificate out of her bag, snapped a photo, and posted it on his social media.
There was no caption, just a simple photo.
But as soon as it was uploaded, likes and comments burst forth instantly.
Zhou Huaiyu said, "Damn, what am I seeing? The man who hasn’t updated his social media in ages is posting now? For this wave of showing off your love, I give it full marks."
Gu Chengzhou was more succinct, just two words: "Congratulations!"
There was also a comment from Qin Suxin: "Congratulations to my daughter and son-in-law, happy marriage!"
