Switched Marriage The Coddled Little Wife novel Chapter 328

Chapter 328: Chapter 328: A Reward for You

The car kept driving further in under Qin Yang’s direction and only stopped in front of a small courtyard with a floral wall at the very end.

Qin Yang got out of the car first, opened the courtyard gate, and then gave Lin Chuxia a gentle smile from across the car.

"Welcome home, madam."

Lin Chuxia was filled with joy and jumped out of the car as well.

Hou Xiaobao grudgingly moved the luggage from the car, having already had more than enough of their boss’s and his spouse’s clinginess.

Who would have thought that their decisive boss and the aloof-as-a-mountain-peak spouse would be like this in private?

After setting down the stuff, he didn’t want to stay a minute longer, "Boss, I still have some things to do and I have to go to Aunt Jia’s for a meal, so I’ll be going first."

After climbing into the car, he rubbed his arms and drove off in a flash.

"This Houzi, how dare he just leave my luggage at the door, wait until I deduct his salary later."

Lin Chuxia complained, but Qin Yang was rather satisfied with Houzi’s quick departure.

With one hand on his bicycle and the other carrying luggage, he walked into the yard.

Lin Chuxia followed suit.

The courtyard wasn’t too small, with four main rooms and two wing rooms.

As Qin Yang entered the courtyard, he began to introduce, "The standard for family courtyards is about the same; with my rank, I’m assigned a courtyard with four main rooms. As you must have seen on our way here, there’s another smaller courtyard at the front. If it were a family apartment building, we would likely have a two-bedrooms and one living room unit. At the time, I figured you would prefer a courtyard, so I went straight for the courtyard."

The house doors were unlocked, and after parking his bicycle, Qin Yang led her straight inside.

"These three rooms are connected, with the far-left room being a separate one. There were people living here before it was allocated to me. After that family transferred out, the place was left empty. To prepare for new colleagues, the organization also had it cleaned up. Take a look and see if there’s anything unsuitable; we can make changes."

Lin Chuxia was already looking around; the walls had obviously been freshly whitewashed, the floor was made of cement, and the ceiling had been recently whitewashed as well.

The three rooms were largely empty, except the rightmost one, which contained a bunk bed and a table—this must have been where Qin Yang was sleeping these past few days.

Fearing that Lin Chuxia would be disappointed with their new home, Qin Yang touched his nose.

"I meant to find time to buy some furniture, but these couple of days have been so busy. I didn’t expect you’d be able to come over so soon."

As he spoke, he carefully watched his wife’s expression.

Part of him also harbored a selfish desire to decorate their little home together with his wife.

He just didn’t know what his wife thought about it; would she think he was incompetent?

Lin Chuxia’s eyes were still scanning around, and she replied nonchalantly, "It’s pretty good like this. Later, we’ll go shopping together. A home for two should be furnished by both to have meaning."

After saying that, she asked him, "Do you have time?"

A handsome smile burst across Qin Yang’s face at once, his chilly features melting like ice and snow on a high mountain, shining with a glint of sunlight, "Yes, I have a day off tomorrow."

Lin Chuxia was suddenly dazzled by his smile.

Honestly, she never lacked for handsome guys in her previous life, but none of them held a candle to Qin Yang.

His character was usually restrained and cool but when sticky, it was almost unbearable.

Lifting her hand, she hooked her finger, and the puzzled Qin Yang arched an eyebrow, "What’s up?"

But he still leaned forward, and Lin Chuxia stretched out her hand to wrap it around his neck and pulled him lower, standing on tiptoes to kiss the corner of his lips.

Jiang Hong didn’t make a big deal out of it and boasted, "Should be over four months now, I think. I don’t remember clearly. Anyway, I’m talking to you, let’s go. Come to our place for dinner tonight."

The woman’s disposition was still as direct and hearty as ever.

"We won’t go today, there are quite a few things missing at home, Qin Yang and I still need to go out and buy some stuff. We’ll invite you two over for dinner when everything is settled."

Jiang Hong agreed, "There really are a lot of things you need when you just moved in. I also had a hodgepodge of purchases, took me several days to arrange."

Since the couple had plans, Li Wei and his wife didn’t insist.

Qin Yang and Lin Chuxia strolled out with Li Wei and his wife.

Li Wei’s residence was a few rows ahead, a three-room fenced little courtyard.

Through the fence wall, one could see that the yard was tidy and clean, with two plots of land already arranged in front of the house.

Jiang Hong said to Lin Chuxia with a smile, "It is cooling down now in autumn. Can’t plant too many vegetables, so I sowed some leafy greens and cabbages to eat fresh later. I have some seeds too if you want to plant—just let me know and I’ll give you some."

"Okay, I’ll come to you if I need them."

Lin Chuxia had no intention of growing vegetables, but she did not reject the offer of kindness either.

After parting with Li Wei and his wife, Qin Yang then rode the bicycle, with Lin Chuxia on the back seat.

Indeed, not far from the unit was a grocery market surrounded by a lively area.

Qin Yang led her straight to a State-Owned Restaurant, "Local products and hardware are also around here, after dinner, we can take our time browsing."

Lin Chuxia had no objections, there were so many things missing at home that she didn’t really have much choice, they could just go wherever there was something to browse.

The two ordered two bowls of shredded pork noodles and seeing pickled radish side dishes, Lin Chuxia also asked for a plate.
