Rebirth: He refused to Divorce Again-Chapter 1405: I Live Upstairs

Ouyang Rong paced back and forth in the room. After a moment, she stopped, pondered for a bit, and then said to San Qi, "San Qi, go investigate who that man and woman were just now?"

"...Yes, Miss."

San Qi hesitated for a moment before promptly agreeing.

Ouyang Rong looked quite serious at this time, muttering to herself, "That woman just now is also one of our kind. She actually intercepted the Spirit Talisman I was about to release. Since when did the Central Plains have someone like her?"

San Qi did not respond, instead, he continued to ask, "Miss, shall I go investigate now?"

Ouyang Rong nodded unconsciously.

San Qi was about to turn and leave, but Ouyang Rong suddenly called after him, "San Qi, wait a moment."

Then Ouyang Rong flicked her fingers, and something appeared in her palm, "Take these few Spirit Talismans. They can help you quickly find out what we want to know."

San Qi took the Spirit Talismans, glanced at Ouyang Rong, but still spoke, "Miss, we just arrived here and are unfamiliar with everything. Besides, that girl was no ordinary person. Therefore..."

San Qi did not finish speaking, believing the Miss would understand.

"What do you mean?" Ouyang Rong asked unpleasantly.

"Miss, I mean that no matter how good that man is, we should observe first and not act rashly," San Qi patiently advised.

"Alright, alright, I know. I still have to wait for news from my dad tonight. Hurry up and go out."

Ouyang Rong waved her hand impatiently.

San Qi glanced at Ouyang Rong, sighed lightly, and resignedly left the room.

He looked at the Spirit Talismans in his hand and quickly headed towards the direction of the elevator by the stairs.

Gu Qiaoqiao met An Xiaotong. The two hadn’t seen each other for a long time, and they chatted animatedly for quite some time. An Xiaotong was about to become a bride, and Du Tian was going to be the groom.

With a call from Qin Yize, Du Tian came joyfully. Together with Chu Chengfeng, these good friends gathered again, naturally exchanging pleasantries.

However, Master Fong was much quieter, seemingly a bit thinner than when last seen. Gu Qiaoqiao thought to herself, ever since parting with Liang Yan, there had been no news of her. She wondered how Liang Yan was doing now.

But although Master Fong was silent, his demeanor was as usual, no different from before. Gu Qiaoqiao knew that some things can’t be rushed; when the time comes to know, Master Fong would naturally find out. At present, no news was the best news.

And Fong Lei was about to change jobs too.

After An Xiaotong’s wedding, he would resign from his position as head chef here and work at the Eastern Third Bureau. Gu Qiaoqiao offered her congratulations, though internally she was thinking that Fong Lei’s destiny seemed to be changing at that moment.

Anyway, as long as it was developing in a positive direction, it was good.

In the blink of an eye, Qin Yize returned to the military, and Gu Qiaoqiao started her school term. Everything returned to normal.

Life seemed to gradually return to peace.

Through An Xiaotong, they learned that the girl named Ouyang Rong was still living in the most luxurious suite at Lijing Ho. She rarely went out and seldom spoke to others, always with an aloof air, as if she were a fairy descended from the heavens.

Gu Qiaoqiao instructed An Xiaotong to inform her immediately if there was anything unusual about Ouyang Rong. An Xiaotong did not ask why Gu Qiaoqiao was paying attention to this guest.

Instead, she readily agreed.

Then Gu Qiaoqiao put the matter aside and focused on starting the new semester. No matter what happened in life, the days had to continue.

In the blink of an eye, ten days passed. Qin Yize came to pick up Gu Qiaoqiao by car to visit the soon-to-be-completed family housing.

The summer days were exceptionally long. With no classes in the afternoon, it was two o’clock now. Sitting in Qin Yize’s car, Gu Qiaoqiao glanced at him. She hadn’t mentioned the incident with Ouyang Rong to him, thinking it was perhaps just Ouyang Rong’s prank. It’d be unnecessary to bring it up as Ouyang Rong hadn’t made any further moves.

Of course, she couldn’t let her guard down.

Life had been both generous and harsh to Gu Qiaoqiao, something she had long accepted with composure.

Based on rank, Qin Yize was about to be assigned an independent house with a courtyard.

The area wasn’t large, but enough for Gu Qiaoqiao and Qin Yize to live in.

The house was two stories.

In another month, they could move in. Qin Yize took Gu Qiaoqiao around, and she expressed her satisfaction. They finally had their own home.

Maybe their future children would grow up here.

"Qiaoqiao, do you like it here?" Qin Yize asked softly, standing beside her.

"Of course I like it..." Gu Qiaoqiao pointed to the yard ahead, her voice joyous, like the delightful ring of a bell, "I’ll have Great Grandma and your mother help plant that flower bed, then put up a grape arbor there. In the summer, we can cool off, drink tea, eat fruit, and plant some vegetables in the backyard. It’s inconvenient to buy groceries here, and home-grown vegetables taste better..."

Qin Yize kept nodding, as if he could already see that future scene, his gaze soft.

Actually, it didn’t matter where they lived, as long as Qiaoqiao was there, it would be home.

Then the two went inside, room by room. Gu Qiaoqiao was enthusiastic. Although she wanted to renovate it well, she knew it couldn’t be too ostentatious. Even though the cadre ranks here were high, most were from ordinary families. If she renovated too lavishly, it would surely have a bad influence. Gu Qiaoqiao wouldn’t do such foolish things; living in the military compound required a degree of uniformity.

However, things that needed adding would still be added. Gu Qiaoqiao chattered away with Qin Yize about her plans for upstairs and downstairs.

Qin Yize had no objection, nodding along as if to say she was right, agreeing with whatever she said or did...

Seeing Qin Yize like this, Gu Qiaoqiao found it amusing and suddenly said, "Then I’ll live upstairs, and you can live downstairs."

She thought Qin Yize would keep nodding like before, but knowing him, his reflexes were exceptionally quick, and he immediately refused, "No way."

Then, feeling that wasn’t a strong enough deterrent, he held her and warned, "Don’t even think about it!"

Gu Qiaoqiao burst into laughter, leaning into her lover’s embrace.
