The next day, He Duoye indeed took Lin Mian to buy a house.

Located next to the park, it is a large, single-level residential community with a beautiful exterior design. It is very close to the park; you can reach the park's side gate by simply crossing the road after leaving the community.

The 200-square-meter house has a bright and spacious living room with floor-to-ceiling windows that overlook a lush green park.

Beautiful scenery, great location, and it's a fully furnished apartment.

He Duoye put his arm around Lin Mian's waist and said, "Now that you've moved in, you can get up early and go for a run in the park."

Lin Mian paused for a moment before remembering that when she and He Duoye rented a place together before, they had looked at an old house next to a lakeside park. The house was actually quite old and a bit far from the school, but because it was next to the park, the rent was higher.

Lin Mian likes that park; it's great for taking a stroll after meals or for a run to lose weight.

She seemed to have said something similar back then, but she herself had forgotten it. Unexpectedly, He Duoye remembered it clearly and actually bought a house next to the park.

After viewing the property, I went to the bank to sign the purchase contract.

When He Duoye arrived at the office, he sat down in a chair and played with the green plants, tugging at their leaves one by one. He lazily asked Lin Mian to sign the document.

Lin Mian pressed down on the cheeky hand, preventing Ye Zi from pulling it off: "Why do you want me to sign?"

He Duoye held Lin Mian's hand and said, "We are husband and wife, it doesn't matter who signs."

Lin Mian guessed that he wanted to buy the house in her name, so she signed her name, then grabbed He Duoye and made him sign his name as well. In the end, their names were side by side.

I don’t know if all house buying processes are this complicated, but Lin Mian signed a lot of documents, including many foreign language documents. She said it was because of He Duoye’s nationality that the process was more complicated.

Lin Mian was probably confused by the various jargon used by the bank manager and real estate agent, and she didn't realize that something was wrong. She just kept signing endlessly.

Later, she gradually realized something was wrong. When she asked He Duoye, she learned that only the first contract she signed that day was for buying a house; the rest were all related to property.

He Duoye transferred all the real estate under his name to Lin Mian and also prepared a trust for her that would ensure her a comfortable life for the rest of her life.

The reason she realized something was wrong was that one day Lin Mian woke up to find that she had received a large transfer. At first, she thought it was a scam, but upon closer inspection, she realized it was indeed a text message from the bank.

Upon logging back into my account, I found that my balance had indeed increased significantly.

Unbeknownst to her, He Duoye had already helped her become a wealthy woman.

He Duoye hugged her, very proudly: "Touched, aren't you?"

Lin Mian was indeed quite touched. He Duoye tucked a stray hair behind her ear and stroked her earlobe and the side of her neck: "If you're touched, how about you behave and let me play with you tonight?"

Lin Mian: "..."

Her gratitude turned into resentment: "Why won't you let me play with it?"

He Duoye readily agreed: "Okay, let's take turns."

In the end, I played around with it in a daze.

*

After buying the house, He Duoye bought a car. After swiping his card, he drove the new car to take Lin Mian to a decoration company to discuss the decoration of the large apartment.

After finishing several tasks in one day, Lin Mian returned to her rented room and collapsed onto the sofa, exhausted.

He Duoye lifted her legs up and placed them on his knees, stroking and kneading them as he asked her where she wanted to travel.

Lin Mian couldn't think of a solution for a moment.

He Duoye then suggested, "Why don't we go directly to Meizhu and the others?"

Meizhu looks gentle and aloof, but she is actually a decisive and efficient person. She opened a guesthouse in just one month after immigrating.

Lin Mian had seen the videos and pictures she posted. The house was located by the sea and decorated in a very healing and free Bohemian style. Outside the window was the azure sea and the golden sand.

Because of its good location, beautiful decor, and delicious food, the guesthouse business has always been good.

Lin Mian accepted the suggestion.

After flipping through the calendar, she set the trip for next Wednesday. After looking at the airfare and distance for a while, Lin Mian got up again and started making travel plans.

Meizhu and the others live quite far away, so on this trip they can visit other places along the way.

The next day, Saturday, early in the morning, He Duoye took Lin Mian to buy gifts for her uncle's family.

At noon, they ate together.

Lin Mian was initially worried that her uncle and aunt would pull He Duoye aside and say something or ask him something, since they still remembered the things He Duoye had done outside, such as murder and arson.

The meal was peaceful and harmonious. The uncle and aunt only asked them about their house, car, and future plans.

He Duoye answered truthfully that the RV had already been bought and was registered under Lin Mian's name. As for what to do and where to live in the future, it would all be up to Lin Mian.

My aunt and uncle couldn't find anything wrong with me, and we chatted about all sorts of random things.

When Lin Mian went to the restroom, only He Duoye and his uncle remained in the private room, and the atmosphere suddenly became somewhat subtly quiet.

Aunt twisted her body, wanting to ask He Duoye what he was doing abroad and whether he would bring danger to Lin Mian. Uncle pinched her and told her not to ask.

Lin Mian's attitude was very clear: she knew everything, but she didn't care about any of it. Besides, now that they were married, saying those things would only alienate Lin Mian from them.

They were already separated from Lin Mian by a certain distance, making it impossible for them to get any closer. If there were any more conflicts, they would probably become even more estranged.

The uncle didn't expect Lin Mian to become closer to them, but he hoped things would remain the same.

After an awkward cough, the uncle was about to start a conversation when He Duoye pushed a bank card towards him. He was taken aback and couldn't help but ask, "What do you mean by this?"

He Duoye said, "My uncle and aunt are Mianmian's close elders. Mianmian grew up under your care. Now that she is married to me, I think you must have a lot of worries, afraid that I will deceive her and let her down. I have no way to prove my sincerity to her, so I can only use this card to represent my sincerity."

The uncle said with dissatisfaction, "But why are you giving us money? We don't need your little bit of money. You should give it to Mianmian."

He Duoye said, "Of course I gave it to her. Everything I own belongs to her, including this card. I'm giving it to you in the hope that you'll accept me. The PIN for this card is the last six digits of the card number. You can do whatever you want with this money. If I ever wrong Mianmian, you can use this money to compensate her."

This is indeed a very sincere approach.

Money is more tangible than anything else. Even if He Duoye dies one day, the money will still belong to Lin Mian.

However, the uncle didn't forget to ask, "How much money is in the card?"

He Duoye: "Ten million."

My uncle's hand trembled so much that he almost threw the bank card away.

When Lin Mian returned from the bathroom, she noticed that the atmosphere at the dinner table was a bit strange. She looked around but couldn't see anything wrong.

After finishing their meal quickly, before parting ways, Lin Mian's aunt pulled her aside and gave her a thick red envelope.

"This is to wish you a happy marriage. You must accept it. Your uncle has been saying for a long time that he would give you a big red envelope when you get married." Aunt held Lin Mian's hand. "I didn't expect this day to come so soon..."

Lin Mian held the red envelope, her eyelashes drooping, and her eyes suddenly felt a little sore.

Aunt glanced behind Lin Mian and saw that He Duoye had already been called away by her uncle and cousin. Then she whispered, "There's a card in the red envelope. He Duoye just gave it to me. The password is the last six digits of the card number. He said there are ten million in it."

"Find some time tomorrow to secretly go to the bank, transfer the money out, and put it in your own account. If that happens in the future... you'll have security for life." As she spoke, her aunt sighed. "Before, your uncle and I were always worried that you might be bullied. Now it seems that Duoye is still the same as before, with only you in his eyes. Your uncle and I can finally relax a little."

"From now on, you should live well with him, but if you suffer any grievances, don't suffer in silence. Come back to us, and we'll stand up for you."

Lin Mian pursed her lips and nodded.

She clutched the card and went back to ask He Duoye before she understood what he meant by giving her money.

The uncle and aunt always thought that He Duoye was cheating, swindling, murdering and arson outside. Although they didn't say it out loud, they neither approved of He Duoye nor felt at ease with Lin Mian following him.

So He Duoye took out ten million yuan directly, dispelling his uncle and aunt's doubts.

He hugged Lin Mian from behind, resting his chin on her shoulder, and said smugly, "They must be much more at ease now."

Yes, we've told her to live a good life with him.

What a scheming man.

Lin Mian didn't yell at him. She returned the card, but He Duoye refused to take it, saying generously, "It's yours now that I've given it to you. Use it to buy diamonds to play with."
