Childhood Sweethearts: He's Jealous Again!

Chapter 129: Chapter 129: I Refuse

The car drove all the way into the villa district in the city center.

One by one, detached two-story villas came into view, surrounded by green mountains and trees, offering a pleasant scenery and fresh air.

“Which one is our house?” Mengmeng couldn’t help asking excitedly as soon as they arrived.

“The two at the very end, those are ours,” Gu’s mother extended her hand to point them out.

Mengmeng craned her neck and noticed that the two villas were joined together, which meant that although they had moved houses, they were still neighbors just like before!

“That’s great, we are neighbors again!”

Unlike Mengmeng’s excitement, Gu Zhihan felt only frustration.

Why are we still neighbors…

When the car stopped in front of the villas, Mengmeng couldn’t wait to drag Gu Zhihan off to tour the new house.

She had imagined it would be as luxurious as the ones in TV shows, but who knew…

The inside was completely unfinished!

Mengmeng was immediately dumbfounded, “Why isn’t it furnished?”

“Why would you think that whoever gave us the house would furnish it?” Gu Zhihan was left speechless by her naivety, “Doesn’t furnishing cost money?”

“Oh right…” Mengmeng felt she was being naive, but the thought of having five million soothed her mood again.

“Don’t worry about the furnishing, leave it to dad,” Luo’s father, being a designer, immediately chimed in with assurance after hearing their conversation.

“Right, how could I forget dad is in the furnishing business,” Mengmeng patted her little head.

“Mengmeng, dad is an architectural designer,” Luo’s dad quickly corrected her misconception.

Who knew, Mengmeng blinked her eyes in confusion, “Is there a difference?”

Luo’s dad: “…”

Alright, alright, you’re the daughter, you’re the boss, if you say there’s no difference, then there’s no difference.

“So where are we going to live during the remodeling?” Once their conversation finished, Gu Zhihan couldn’t help but ask a crucial question.

“Um…” Just as he spoke, several parents fell into deep thought, obviously not having figured it out yet.

“How about we stay in a hotel?” Seeing their troubled expressions, Mengmeng offered a small suggestion.

However, Mengmeng’s mom was the first to refuse, “No way, staying in a hotel is so expensive, it’s such a waste!”

“Mom, you do realize you have five million now,” Mengmeng couldn’t help but remind her.

“Having money doesn’t mean we can just waste it,” Mengmeng’s mom asserted righteously.

Mengmeng was exasperated, “Then where are we going to live?”

Man, her mom was still as stingy as ever.

“I’ll send you to your grandparents’ place in the countryside, it’s scorching hot anyway, you can go there to cool off. Your dad and I will just stay at our place of work,” Mengmeng’s mom decided outright.

“What about my husband?” Mengmeng then asked.

Mengmeng was more concerned about where Gu Zhihan would stay than about herself.

“Can he come with me to grandma and grandpa’s place?” Mengmeng looked at Gu’s mom somewhat pleadingly.

“Of course, he can!” Gu’s mom didn’t hesitate for a second before agreeing, her demeanor so indulgent toward her daughter-in-law, it seemed as if even if Mengmeng asked Gu Zhihan to eat dirt, she wouldn’t have any complaints.

“That’s wonderful!” Mengmeng was immediately overjoyed, hopping and skipping around Gu Zhihan like a happy little sparrow.

“I refuse…”

Gu Zhihan, who had been silent all this while, finally couldn’t hold back.

It wasn’t that he didn’t want to go to Luo Mengmeng’s grandparents’ home, but he felt extremely annoyed by their selfish decision-making.

Why didn’t anyone ask if he wanted to go, before just making the decision for him?
