CHAPTER 1282: CHAPTER 1282: BUYING A HOUSE

Bai Xiao sat in Qi Yuqing’s car, and the two of them headed straight to the newest developments in Capital City. Bai Xiao had already found the advertising brochures with information about these properties! Plus, he called Jiang Shaoqing last night; this guy has invested in several projects in Capital City.

The information was very up-to-date.

Of course, he didn’t mention Bai Song was buying a house, otherwise Jiang Shaoqing might just give him one.

He said he was asking for a friend.

Jiang Shaoqing introduced her to several top developments, whether it’s the location or the layout, including the developer’s qualifications, all are the best.

Considered elite residences in Capital City.

"Dr. Bai, really going to check out houses? My mom, don’t mind her, I’ll be honest, she’s just purposely giving your brother a hard time. My mom has a knot in her heart, feels that marrying a policeman means having a dangerous life and accepting a husband who can’t care for the family, she can’t accept it psychologically, she’s just throwing a tantrum, it’ll pass after some time."

Qi Yuqing knew well what her mom was up to.

She just didn’t want to accept it.

Trying different ways to make trouble.

Bai Xiao smiled, "Don’t worry, I actually understand, what mom isn’t like that? Now that I’m a mom, I understand even more, so this isn’t about being stubborn, anyway, your mom’s right, living together as a family will be convenient!"

Comforting Qi Yuqing, this soon-to-be sister-in-law, she was quite pleased.

Besides, money can’t buy happiness.

If her brother likes someone so much, it’s only right to make an effort to win over the mother-in-law! It’s normal to have some trouble from the bride’s family when getting married.

"But isn’t it unnecessary to actually buy it? Our family doesn’t have many people, we can save up and buy our own house later. I’m afraid your brother won’t be willing, it’s not right for the brother to get married and have the sister buy the house, I couldn’t bear that."

Qi Yuqing knew well that if Bai Song really wanted to rely on his sister, it wouldn’t be like this now.

The Bai Family isn’t short of money.

At least her parents don’t know, but she does.

"So Dr. Qi is getting distant, huh?"

Bai Xiao pouted, Qi Yuqing mocked her, "You’re throwing a tantrum at me? Besides, you’re not that kind of person, Dr. Bai, stop pretending, it doesn’t suit you."

"Alright, I won’t pretend anymore, I’m telling you buying the house is my gift to my brother, not for you, it has nothing to do with you as the sister-in-law. My bond with my brother is different, my siblings aren’t like others’.

You might have guessed, my brother and sisters are not blood-related to me. We have no family ties, but when I was little, my brother and sisters worked to support me, my brother joined the army because of it, my sisters also went through a lot, and now finally everyone in the family is living well.

My brother is the last to get married, so let me, the little sister, express my feelings.

The house and money my dad gave represent his feelings, which are different from mine, I have to use my own money, didn’t spend a cent from Bai Group.

So, do as you see fit!"

Qi Yuqing laughed in frustration.

"I’m really scared of you. But what if your brother gets mad at me?"

Qi Yuqing worried Bai Song might not accept it, which would make her look bad.

"Haha, I’m here, what are you afraid of? I’m your backing, my brother definitely wouldn’t dare to be angry with you."

The two laughed together.

They arrived at the sales office.

Capital City’s development is rapid, property sales are leading across the nation.

The sales office was impressively decorated and very attractive.

The sales staff warmly greeted them upon sight.

Nowadays, people’s awareness of buying houses isn’t that strong yet, although the concept of house allocation is gone, many are still observing.

"Hello, are you here to see houses? What kind of layout are you interested in?"

The sales personnel guessed they mainly wanted small units, as these two looked quite young. Typically, buyers are parents or couples getting married, so these two likely had a minor interest and were picky.

Probably more of a look-around.

"We’re interested in three-bedroom, two-living-room layouts, but if there are four-bedroom, two-living-room ones, those work too, ideally south-north facing and well-lit, preferably elevator buildings."

Bai Xiao had a good grasp of future home types.

If buying a walk-up building now, it might be inconvenient for the elderly and children later! Better to get it right in one go.

Anyway, elevator buildings were already available.

"Alright, we have two options here that meet your requirements. One is a three-bedroom, two-living-room, 130 square meters, the other is a four-bedroom, two-living-room, two-bathrooms, 180 square meters, south-north oriented, great light, nice floor levels, excellent lighting, well-maintained greenery, and property services. Currently, purchasing also includes a parking spot."

"Is it off-plan or existing?"

It’s best to have a completed house for his brother’s marriage; off-plan would require waiting, which doesn’t suit their needs.

"There are both available, but there are smaller layouts for off-plan."

The sales personnel thought internally, these two didn’t seem like serious buyers, hadn’t even asked for prices.

"Then show us the houses!"

The sales representative agreed, took the keys, and drove them to the properties.

They couldn’t offend customers, no matter what.

They considered today as providing a free service.

Bai Xiao looked around and asked Qi Yuqing, "Dr. Qi! Which do you think is better? I also think the four-bedroom, two-living-room, two-bathroom is better. Considering your parents’ age, and you’re an only child, it’ll be convenient for them to live with you and easy to care for them, better to get a larger place all at once, so you won’t have to worry about it later."

Qi Yuqing felt uneasy, this price shouldn’t be cheap, such a large unit at least dozens of thousands.

Even at 800 per square meter, it might be twenty to thirty thousand.

Moreover, this property was visibly different from the dormitory building she bought, it had very high hardware standards, she felt uneasy, fearing Bai Xiao would see her as materialistic.

"Uh... How about if we keep looking?"

"Not satisfied?"

Qi Yuqing whispered, "It’s too expensive, let’s look elsewhere."

Bai Xiao smiled, "If that’s the reason, then let’s not talk about it. Today, I’m treating you, so let’s decide, this is the house. I find it’s very close to your work and my brother, I’ve checked, nearby schools, kindergarten, primary, secondary, and even hospitals are just a few hundred meters away, overall it’s very convenient, comprehensive living facilities, there’s also a large supermarket and vegetable market nearby."

"Hi! We’ll take this four-bedroom, two-living-room, two-bathroom unit! Calculate the cost for us."

Bai Xiao directly made the decision, given future prices might jump to tens of thousands per square meter, even hundreds of thousands, this was practically a bargain.

This property was inside the third ring.

Its price would appreciate significantly in the future.

The sales personnel happily went to calculate.
