Chapter 730 Buying a House
Hearing her mother asking Lin Hao about his age, Wang Xiaomi quickly interrupted:

"Mom, why do you ask someone's age right after you come in? How rude!"

"What's wrong? She's your boyfriend, not a stranger. I'm asking what's wrong." Wang Xiaomi's mother, Wang Lanfang, didn't notice her daughter's strangeness. She still smiled and asked Lin Hao, "How old are you?"

Lin Hao smiled and said, "I am 40 years old this year!"

"What?" Wang Xiaomi's mother, Wang Lanfang, exclaimed in disbelief: "Forty years old!"

Then Wang Lanfang looked at Lin Hao again. He didn't look very old, probably around 30 at most. She didn't expect that he was actually 40 years old.

"Wait, you're still not married at 40?" Suddenly, she thought of a serious problem: "Could it be that ~, there's nothing wrong with you!"

Lin Hao glanced at Wang Xiaomi and seeing her evasive look, he knew that just like in the original drama, she did not reveal all her information.

But Lin Hao didn't intend to fool anyone, so he said, "Yes, I have!"

Then there was silence at the table, and Wang Lanfang exclaimed, "Married, and divorced?"

"Why are you still with him after the divorce?" Wang Lanfang turned to Wang Xiaomi and questioned.

Wang Xiaomi couldn't stand it anymore and quickly tried to smooth things over, "Oh, everyone has a time when they fail!"

"Shut up!" Wang Lanfang yelled at Wang Xiaomi. Seeing her daughter's attitude, she thought she could find a gap with Lin Hao.

Then Wang Lanfang continued to ask Lin Hao in a calm voice: "Do you have children?"

Lin Hao said straight to the point:

"How about this, you don't have to ask me one by one, I will tell you my situation all at once!"

"I am a high school teacher and own a two-bedroom, one-living-room apartment near the school. My daughter is studying in my private high school and my other daughter is in kindergarten. My mother owns a courtyard house and currently lives alone!"

After that, Lin Hao asked again: "Aunt, do you have any questions?"

At this moment Wang Lanfang suddenly felt a headache. Although Lin Hao's conditions were indeed good, the problem was that the age difference was too big.

The most critical issue is that we already have two children. This is an issue that cannot be avoided. If the children were young, it would be fine, but one daughter is already in high school. To put it bluntly, it is impossible to raise her well!
"Wang Xiaomi, do you know all this?" Wang Lanfang turned to Wang Xiaomi and asked.

"I know!" Wang Xiaomi said indifferently.

"You knew it from the beginning?" Wang Lanfang was a little angry. She knew Lin Hao was so old and had two children, but she still wanted to be with him.

"I knew it from the beginning!" Wang Xiaomi continued:

"Before I got together with Teacher Ma, I had met her daughter. She was a very cute girl and we had a pretty good relationship!"

Wang Lanfang was speechless, but she was still unhappy. The cabbage she had raised for more than 20 years was eaten by this old wild boar, and her daughter was willing to let him eat it.
Wang Lanfang wanted to stop her daughter from jumping into the fire pit, but she didn't know what to do, which made her even more unhappy!

Then, with a thought in mind, Wang Lanfang asked solemnly:

"She's so much older than you, and she has two children, and yet you still want to be with her?"

Wang Xiaomi smiled and said nonchalantly:

"Age is not a problem for me at all, and I like to find someone older than me, especially someone who has been married and knows how to care for others!"

"Besides, he has been married before and has children. If such an experienced driver can get a license directly and start working, he will have to take fewer detours!"

"Oh, you're going to piss me off to death!" Wang Lanfang was immediately furious when she heard that!

Wang Xiaomi curled his lips and said:
"Why are you so angry? Wasn't my dad much older than you back then? And wasn't that Uncle Liu who was pursuing you also ten years older than you?"

"Okay, okay, let's not talk about this for now!" Then Wang Lanfang continued:

"Then have you ever thought about this? After the age of 40, men's physical strength begins to decline. Have you ever thought about the issue of happiness in the future?"

"Teacher Ma has good physical strength, stronger than that of young guys. I am very satisfied!" After saying that, Wang Xiaomi looked at Lin Hao shyly, and Lin Hao smiled in response.

Looking at this pair of adulterers, Wang Lanfang thought for a while and finally came up with another question:

"Wait, there is another question. He only has a two-bedroom apartment now, and the brother and sister live together. If you have children in the future, what will you do? Where will they live?"

"This~!" Wang Xiaomi was stunned by the question for a moment, and then looked at Lin Hao helplessly.

How could this little problem stop Lin Hao? So he said:
"There is always a way out. My daughter will go to college in two years. After college, she will work and fall in love. There must be a way out!"

"Also, don't forget, my family has two properties after all!"

Seeing that her mother was still trying to find fault, Wang Xiaomi suddenly said angrily, "At worst, you can just not have the child. Why are there so many problems?"

"Let's go!" Wang Xiaomi said as she pulled Lin Hao's hand and prepared to leave!

Wang Lanfang, who had been somewhat discouraged, was immediately furious when she heard this: "Wang Xiaomi, you are going to piss me off to death!"

"If you leave today, don't come back!"

However, Wang Xiaomi pulled Lin Hao and walked out without looking back. Wang Lanfang saw this and shouted anxiously:

"return!"

"Wang Xiaomi, come back!"

After leaving Wang Xiaomi's house, Lin Hao looked at the depressed Wang Xiaomi. Lin Hao hugged Wang Xiaomi and said softly:

"Why did you suddenly get so angry? She is your mother after all! This is not like your character!"

"If I stay at home, my mother will definitely find endless faults with me!" Wang Xiaomi said indignantly:

"And I'm a little angry too. She has been looking for someone older, but she can't find someone like me?"

Lin Hao hugged Wang Xiaomi and said comfortingly:
"After all, your mother cares about you. She may be a little too concerned, but as a parent, how can she not care about the future of her child? All parents in the world are the same. When you become a mother in the future, you will probably be the same!"

"Hate it!" Wang Xiaomi hugged Lin Hao's arm tightly, and said coquettishly with a shy face: "I haven't agreed to marry you yet!"

"If you don't marry me, who else do you want to marry?" Then Lin Hao said forcefully: "I'm telling you, Wang Xiaomi, my life is ruined by you. You have to be responsible for me!"

"Hmph!" Wang Xiaomi snorted coldly with a proud look on her face, and then said coquettishly: "Uncle, I'm homeless now. I'm afraid we have to stay in a hotel tonight!" "Let's not stay in a hotel!" Lin Hao said solemnly: "What my aunt said just now reminded me that when we get married and have children in the future, housing will indeed be a problem!"

Wang Xiaomi felt warm in her heart and said happily, "No, don't worry about the house problem. There is a solution!"

"Besides, if it really doesn't work out, you can just stay at my house! It doesn't matter where you live!"

Lin Hao gently pinched Wang Xiaomi's pretty face and said, "Since you followed me, how could I bear to let you suffer any injustice!"

"Come on, I'll take you to a place!" Then Lin Hao took Wang Xiaomi and left in a car.

"I didn't go anywhere!" Wang Xiaomi asked.

"You'll know when we get there! It's a surprise, isn't it?" Lin Hao then said with a smile, "It was just an idea in my mind, but what happened today has made me determined!"

Wang Xiaomi wrinkled her nose, leaned on Lin Hao's shoulder, and secretly wondered what the surprise was!
······
"Sales office?" After getting off the car, Wang Xiaomi looked at the sales office in front of her and looked at Lin Hao in surprise and doubt.

"Let's go!" Lin Hao pulled Wang Xiaomi into the sales office.

"No, uncle, wait a minute!" Although Wang Xiaomi was very happy, he felt that there was no need to waste money, so he quickly said:

"Uncle, I don't think it's necessary to buy a house! If we really get married, we have enough houses to live in!"

"Even if we don't buy it, it's okay for us to take a look!" Lin Hao coaxed Wang Xiaomi.

The door was pushed open, and a group of beautiful women and handsome men in the sales office looked over. Then a pretty little fairy stepped forward and asked:
"Sir, Madam, are you here to look at the house? How can I help you?"

Lin Hao ignored the girl. If it were any other world, Lin Hao would definitely try something new.

However, Lin Hao was not planning to wander around in this world, so he directly refused her service.

At this moment, a young man, sweating profusely, just came in from outside the sales office, as if he had just returned from going out with a client to look at existing houses.

From the level of frustration on his face, I could guess that the order was not successful!

So Lin Hao directly asked him to introduce a house. When the young man heard that Lin Hao specifically asked him to look at the house, his face was immediately filled with smiles.

After introducing himself, the young man named Xiao Liu poured two cups of tea for Lin Hao and Wang Xiaomi and said:
"Brother, sister, it's so hot out here! Have some tea to cool down!"

Lin Hao took a sip of tea, then said with a smile:

"Thank you, Xiao Liu! I see you are exhausted. It's the weekend, why don't you take a break~!"

"Brother, you are joking. For workers in our industry, there is no such thing as rest. We won't take a holiday unless the earth explodes!"

After hearing this, Lin Hao laughed and thought that the young man was quite interesting.

"Brother, are you here to look at houses? Are there any houses you're interested in?" Xiao Liu asked with a smile on his face.

Lin Hao pointed at Wang Xiaomi beside him and replied with a smile:
"My girlfriend and I are here to buy a wedding house. We want to pick a bigger house!"

"Then congratulations to Mr. Ma and Ms. Wang, and I wish you a happy wedding!" Xiao Liu was delighted when he heard that. Those who come to see the wedding house are high-value potential customers.

Wang Xiaomi's face turned red with shame when she heard this, but she was very happy in her heart. I haven't even agreed to marry him yet!

Pointing to the sand table model beside him, Lin Hao said, "Can you first introduce the types of rooms here?"

"Okay!" Xiao Liu said and began to introduce.

The young man was very skilled in his business. Not only did he introduce all the house types in the property, he also gave detailed explanations based on the regional location, the quality of the house types, and the cost-effectiveness!
Lin Hao listened very carefully. As a former architectural designer, he could tell the pros and cons of a house at a glance.

Xiao Liu was introducing several renovated houses when he suddenly discovered that the price of one of the houses he was introducing was more than one million more than other houses with the same area.

Lin Hao also liked that apartment and asked:
"Why is this house so much more expensive? Is it a model house?"

"Oh, this house!" Xiao Liu looked at the house Lin Hao pointed at, and then said:
"It's like this. The original homeowner who signed the contract is a friend of the boss. He spent more than three million to renovate the house, but he hasn't moved in yet. The company is short of funds and urgently needs money!"

"The boss and he are friends, and they have a good relationship, so the boss just refunded the money for the house and renovation!"

"So, if we put this house up for sale now, the price of the fine decoration plus the house price is relatively high. Although it is more than one million cheaper than the original decoration cost, it is still more than one million more expensive than other houses with normal decoration."

"The price is neither high nor low, so after selling it for more than a month, there are quite a few people asking about it, but no one is willing to buy it!"

No matter how much truth there is in what the young man said, Lin Hao is attracted by the house itself.

Then Lin Hao said to Wang Xiaomi: "What do you think? Do you want to go and see the decoration?"

Lin Hao quite likes the large flat on the eighth floor, but it still depends on whether Wang Xiaomi likes it.

"I really want to buy it!" Wang Xiaomi opened her mouth, not knowing what to say.

"Look, I don't ask you to spend any money, so what are you afraid of?" Lin Hao said with a smile.

Wang Xiaomi heard this, nodded and said, "Okay, let's go and see it!"

Soon, under the leadership of Xiao Liu, Lin Hao and Wang Xiaomi entered the community and checked the surrounding environment.

Lin Hao discovered that this place was not far from the school, and was about the same distance as the house he lived in now. The subway station was less than 200 meters away in a straight line, with convenient transportation. There was also an elegant park next to it.

Lin Hao looked at the property and had some vague impression of it. Thinking about the location of this area, it seemed that there was great potential for appreciation in value in the future!
The supporting facilities in the community are much more advanced than other places, and there is even a gym in the community!

Arriving at the eighth floor, Xiao Liu opened the door to the house, and the modern decoration inside immediately caught his eye!
Lin Hao had also worked in interior design, so he could naturally tell that the decoration of this house was also designed by an expert.

"From what I saw on the drawing, this large flat is about 200 square meters, right?" Lin Hao asked after looking at the structural diagram.

Xiao Liu was very familiar with this house, and he introduced it immediately: "This house has four bedrooms, two living rooms and three bathrooms, a total of 215 square meters, the unit price is 6.5 per square meter, and the total price including decoration is 1570 million."

Lin Hao picked up the drawing and looked at it carefully. It was exactly as he said. Then he asked Wang Xiaomi:
"Xiaomi, what do you think of this decoration style? Do you like it?"

Wang Xiaomi looked around and touched it. It would be a lie to say that she didn't like it. But judging from Lin Hao's attitude, he didn't think he was really going to buy it.
"Ms. Wang, this house is really worth buying. The decoration and design alone cost more than three million yuan, and the boss directly cut the decoration fee in half!"

"Full payment, no matter how much discount you want, just tell me the lowest price. If I can accept it, we'll sign the contract right away." Lin Hao made up his mind with a wave of his hand!
