Chapter 614: Don't Want to Eat, Want to Eat...
Chen Fan smiled and explained, "I bought the house last time I came here."
"This time I'm here for the property transfer."
Su Ruochu looked confused.
"But... but why buy a house? You don't even live in Beijing."
Chen Fan explained, "I saw your dormitory when I visited last time, the space is too small and too depressing."
"I thought about buying you a house near the school, so you can come here to live anytime. And if I miss you in the future, I'll have a place to stay when I come to Beijing."
"We can't always stay in hotels, right?"
"Also, if your parents come to visit you, they'll have a place to stay too."
Chen Fan explained with a smile, "Housing prices are cheap now, buying a house is more cost-effective than renting one."
Su Ruochu was convinced by Chen Fan.
She didn't care about things like housing or appreciation, she only remembered that Chen Fan said he would come to Beijing often to accompany her and have a place to stay.
So she had no objections to Chen Fan buying this house.
Seeing the staff member hand over the pen, Chen Fan turned to Su Ruochu with a smile.
"Take out your ID card."
"You come and sign."
Su Ruochu was stunned again.
"I... I sign?"
"Of course you sign since I bought it for you."
Chen Fan said matter-of-factly, but Su Ruochu was still hesitant to agree.
"I don't want to."
"This is the house you bought, you should sign."
Usually when Chen Fan bought her gifts, bags or clothes and cosmetics, she could accept them openly.
But now he was buying a house, and Chen Fan wanted her to sign, Su Ruochu suddenly felt at a loss.
As if seeing the girl's embarrassment, Chen Fan smiled and took Su Ruochu's small hand.
"First of all, this house is bought for you, so of course it's most appropriate for you to sign."
"Secondly, I'm not in Beijing usually, if there's anything with the property management in the future, like paying water and electricity bills, heating fees... it would be much more convenient if you're the owner."
Although that's what he said, Su Ruochu still felt awkward.
She felt that since they weren't married yet, if she accepted Chen Fan's house now, it would seem like she was coveting Chen Fan's money.
Chen Fan had to use his trump card: "I know what you're worried about."
"Aren't we already engaged? Aren't you going to marry me in the future?"
"If so, what's mine is yours! Sooner or later, what are you worried about?"
"But I..."
Su Ruochu lowered her head, feeling conflicted.
The staff member beside them marveled inwardly.
Today was truly eye-opening.
It was the first time he had seen people push each other to sign when buying a house.
Usually, the couples he encountered who came to process contracts, the woman would try every means to add her name.
These two were different, both seemed reluctant to sign.
This was a house worth hundreds of thousands of yuan, was this girl really playing hard to get or just naive?
Seeing that neither could convince the other, the staff member smiled and suggested.
"You two can actually put both your names on it together."
Chen Fan looked up.
"We haven't gotten our marriage certificate yet, is that okay?"
The staff member explained with a smile: "Of course it is."
"If both names are written on the property certificate, this house will be considered as jointly owned property. This means that whether you two end up getting married or not, this house will be treated according to the principle of joint property."
Chen Fan nodded, "Then let's do it this way."
He then put the pen in Su Ruochu's hand.
"You sign first, you'll be the property owner, and I'll be the co-owner."
This time, Su Ruochu didn't refuse. After a slight hesitation, she signed her name with a blushing face.
Chen Fan took the pen and wrote down his name, then both pressed their fingerprints.
After signing the contract, the house legally belonged to Chen Fan and Su Ruochu.
The staff member explained to them that the property certificate would be mailed out within 20 working days. It would be sent directly to Su Ruochu.
After leaving the housing administration bureau, the landlord kindly drove them back to Dingfuzhuang West Village.
"Wish you happiness."
Bidding farewell to the landlord, Chen Fan dangled the keys in his hand.
"My lady, want to accompany your husband to visit our house?"
Su Ruochu snatched the keys and ran ahead quickly.
Chen Fan shouted behind her, hopping along, "Hey, wait for me!"
"Not waiting. This is what you get for keeping it from me."
Though she said this, Su Ruochu still ran back, excitedly hugging Chen Fan and gently kissing him on the cheek.
"Thank you."
It was clear that Chen Fan had bought this house to her heart's content.
Although it was a second-hand house, Chen Fan had carefully selected it when he chose it before. The inside of the house had been renovated by the previous owner.
Moreover, most of the furniture was 80-90% new, not needing replacement, and ready to move in.
As soon as they entered, Su Ruochu excitedly ran back and forth, touring the rooms.
Finally, she ran excitedly to the balcony.
"Chen Fan, come quick, you can see our school campus from here..."
Chen Fan leaned back on the sofa, smiling as he watched Su Ruochu excitedly lean on the balcony like a little girl.
At this moment, his sense of achievement was greatly satisfied.
After her excitement subsided, Su Ruochu turned and walked back, sitting next to Chen Fan, her body nestling in his arms, her hands encircling his body.
"Chen Fan, thank you, I'm really happy."
Chen Fan smiled and reached out to pinch Su Ruochu's pointed chin.
"What do you call me?"
"Chen Fan..."
"Hmm?"
Su Ruochu's face was flushed red, her eyes filled with coy shyness.
"Husband..."
Damn. Who could resist this?
Chen Fan immediately felt two heads, one of which grew larger.
"Wife, shall we... go to the bedroom?"
How could Su Ruochu not see Chen Fan's urgent demeanor at this moment? She couldn't help but shake her head with a laugh.
"We haven't eaten yet."
"Right now I only want to eat you."
Su Ruochu blushed and pushed away Chen Fan's playful hands.
"No. We must eat first."
"Come on, let's go out to eat."
Chen Fan lay on the sofa pretending to be dead.
"Wife, the arrow is on the bowstring, the gun is loaded, and now you want me to go out to eat?"
Su Ruochu lowered her head following Chen Fan's gaze, immediately scared, she quickly turned her head, her little face burning hot.
"You... why don't you stay at home, I'll go out and buy for you?"
Chen Fan pulled Su Ruochu tightly into his arms.
"You're not allowed to go anywhere. Let's order takeout. We'll have the hotel deliver it to us."
Saying this, he pulled out a stack of flyers from under the coffee table, then selected the nearest hotel.
He called to order a few dishes.
After hanging up, Chen Fan shook his head with some emotion.
"It's still troublesome, if only we had Meituan now."
Su Ruochu was puzzled, "What's Meituan?"
Chen Fan smiled, "You'll know in a few years."
According to the timeline, in 2004, Wang Xing was still working on his campus network.
In 2007, Wang Xing left the campus network and founded Fanfou.
It wasn't until 2010, when Fanfou showed no hope of profitability, that Wang Xing came up with Meituan.
There were still 5 years to go.
Should he start a group-buying website first?
Chen Fan shook his head, quickly shaking off this idea.
He was really going crazy.
Wanting to do everything, did he really think he was Superman?
