A large platform was built in the middle of the master bedroom, with a depression of about ten centimeters in the center, where a two-meter-wide mattress was placed.
With such a large area, Bai Xiaoqi can move around as much as she wants at night, and the mattress is positioned in the depression so she doesn't have to worry about it sliding.
Chen Shuo initially thought the platform was an anti-human design. This thing had a height difference; the area where the mattress was placed was higher, while the surrounding platforms were lower. If you accidentally bumped into it when you got up at night, your foot would definitely hurt for half a day.
But then I thought, since we're going to lay carpet anyway, it won't hurt if I bump into it again. Besides, the platform floor does look simple and beautiful.
In the middle is the bed, and on the left is a display cabinet where Bai Xiaoqi can put all her big and small bear plush toys. There is also a pull-out table where you can put a computer and potted plants. If you want to use the computer in bed, you can just pull it out.
To the right is a wooden wall, behind which is a specially partitioned walk-in closet. The distance from the bed to the wall is about two meters. In addition to decorative cabinets, there is room for a baby's crib in the middle. When we have children in the future, we can put them here and take care of them nearby.
Once the child is a little older, we immediately move him outside; last time we put him in a different spot.
Moreover, as long as the rest of the platform is kept clean, a carpet can be laid on it to place some cushions and throw pillows, which adds a lot of storage space.
The house he lived in before was too small, and there was no room to put anything. This new house is obviously very spacious, but he still subconsciously added a lot of storage space when decorating.
For example, there's a large built-in standing shoe cabinet in the entryway that can fit as many shoes as you want, unlike the old-fashioned combination shoe cabinets you bought online, which could only hold a maximum of seven or eight pairs of shoes.
The master bedroom's bathroom has a double bathtub at the far end, with a skylight above it. They had originally planned not to install a toilet, but after Chen Shuo installed the bathtub, he found that there was still a lot of extra space, so he installed it instead, separating the two rooms with a glass door.
Bai Xiaoqi glanced at the double bathtub inside, pursed her lips, and then stopped paying attention to it, running to the master bedroom balcony.
She was satisfied with everything except for the double bathtub. Although Chen Shuo didn't say it, she knew that the bathtub's function was much more than just soaking in the tub.
The balcony was also carefully designed. Compared to the bedroom, the balcony was lowered, and knowing that Bai Xiaoqi liked to look down from the window, Chen Shuo specially installed a floor-to-ceiling window with a wide view and placed a hanging chair.
On the rooftop, there were even larger hanging sofas that could seat three people. They weren't cushioned or had pillows, and after sitting there for several months, a layer of dust had accumulated on them. Bai Xiaoqi didn't seem to mind the dirt and sat down directly on one, causing Chen Shuo to frown. "That's dirty up there."
"Just do the laundry when you get back."
The weather was already getting hot in May. Bai Xiaoqi looked at the house back and forth for a long time, her excited expression never stopping, her little face flushed.
He didn't even have time to wipe the fine sweat from his forehead as he turned his head to take in the view of the entire rooftop.
There are many attics with huge skylights, green trees, and grass. There is a stone path in the middle of the grass, and a small pavilion. Next to the pavilion is a small pond, but there is no water in it.
There's an open space over there where we can put a sofa, tables, chairs, and benches. We can also move this hanging sofa over there so we can watch the stars and the moon together at night.
She couldn't find the right words to describe it, but the description was pretty much accurate. It was really beautiful, both downstairs and on the rooftop. She never imagined it could be decorated so well, and she could hardly believe it.
Bai Xiaoqi couldn't help but keep turning back to look at Chen Shuo, repeatedly asking, "Is this our house?"
"Really?"
"Why is our house so nice?"
"..."
It has been proven that when people are extremely excited, they cannot believe what they are seeing, and they also become less intelligent.
"Silly."
Bai Xiaoqi, unusually, didn't argue with him. She jumped off the hanging sofa and bumped into Chen Shuo's arms, then hugged his waist tightly.
In less than two years since she transformed from a cat into a human, she has not only found her beloved but also a home, a home for the two of them.
She felt that meeting this guy was the luckiest thing that had ever happened to her.
"Don't hug me so tightly, it's so hot."
"I do not."
Chapter 241 This woman is terrifying
Chen Shuo's guess was absolutely right. On the way back from seeing the new house, Bai Xiaoqi started urging them to move.
But before that, you should have a professional testing agency come and test it to see if there are any harmful substances left.
The house has been vacant for several months since it was renovated, and the windows have been kept open for ventilation. In theory, there should be no problem, and there is no need to find a formaldehyde testing agency. But frankly speaking, this is just to put my mind at ease.
"Is it for a drug test?"
"It's not a poison test, it's a test for harmful substances, to see if there's formaldehyde. Inhaling formaldehyde is terrible; it can make you unable to have children and cause you to lose clumps of hair, turning you bald in just a few days. You don't want to become a nun, right?"
As Chen Shuo spoke, he gestured with his head to scare her. Simply saying he couldn't have children might not scare her, and might even please her. It was more reliable to scare her by saying he would become bald.
Bai Xiaoqi realized how terrible it was, and then started urging them to find a professional organization to conduct the testing.
"I've already made an appointment. They'll come when they're available, and I'll call them then."
The next day, the formaldehyde removal company arrived, carrying a device that went from room to room. Bai Xiaoqi curiously followed behind, watching intently, and whispered to Chen Shuo, "What will happen if it tests positive for toxins?"
"It's not poisonous, it's just that it contains a type of poison... never mind, it's pretty much the same anyway." Chen Shuo was too lazy to correct her anymore. If it's poisonous, it's poisonous. He then said, "If it's poisonous, we can only wait a while before we can move in."
Hearing their conversation, the technician who came to test for formaldehyde smiled and said, "You can move in now. I've tested it, and it's not toxic."
After paying the fee and seeing the testing technician off, Bai Xiaoqi excitedly rushed into Chen Shuo's arms, then stood on tiptoe and offered her lips to him in celebration.
Chen Shuo hugged her tightly and bent down to respond to her kiss. Little A Miao is becoming more and more charming. Her once immature taste has become soft and lingering, making her increasingly irresistible.
Moving is a big event, a joyous occasion, but the two had been renting a small apartment that was practically empty. All the appliances and furniture, such as refrigerators, televisions, air conditioners, and washing machines, belonged to the landlord.
In total, the things I need to move are mostly clothes, shoes, hats, bed sheets, blankets, toothbrushes, towels, and other daily necessities.
The most valuable items were nothing more than two laptops. Thinking about it, moving seemed simple, but once he actually started moving, Chen Shuo realized that there were quite a lot of odds and ends in the house. Moving them wasn't difficult, but packing them up was a real hassle.
Bai Xiaoqi took a large woven bag and stuffed all the plush toys, big and small bears, pillows and other things into it. Finally, she also put the two bricks on the TV cabinet.
"You're taking these two bricks with you too?"
"Yes, this is also one of ours. We bought it for two hundred yuan."
"It's not really a purchase; it's more like a free gift," Chen Shuo corrected.
The items were mostly small and miscellaneous, with no large items, so there was no need to hire a moving company. A few suitcases and woven bags would suffice; we could just carry them down the street.
Chen Jianwen's car was parked downstairs. The back seat had been removed, so it could be used to haul everything away in one trip. Before leaving, the two looked around the house they had been renting for so long and couldn't help but feel a pang of regret.
Although the space is small, the sound insulation is poor, the balcony is drafty, and there isn't even enough room for a dining table, we still lived here together for two years.
When I saw the new house, I couldn't wait to move in, but when it was time to leave, I felt inexplicably melancholy.
Everything that needed to be moved has been moved out, and the interior layout seems to have remained largely unchanged, yet it also feels much emptier now.
"Let's go, we still need to tidy up the new house and do a thorough cleaning today."
With the security door closed, the house quietly awaits the next resident to move in, and no one knows who that will be.
"You're moving out already?"
The older woman across the hall opened her door, poked her head out, and asked.
"Yes, they moved out. Oh, by the way, Auntie, our landlord is abroad. She said I could just give you the keys. Did she tell you about that?"
"I told you, I told you! Look at my memory, I would have forgotten if you hadn't reminded me."
Aunt Liu from across the hall chuckled as she took the keys, then looked the two of them over and said, "I'm really going to miss you guys moving out."
"Oh, it's not like we'll never see each other again. We'll come to see you again when we have the chance. Alright, Aunt Liu, we'll be going now."
"Let's go, let's go, be careful on the road."
After exchanging a few polite words, Chen Shuo pulled Bai Xiaoqi downstairs and left. Aunt Liu, who lived across the street and whose name was not even worthy of mention, watched the two of them go, smacked her lips, and went back inside. The young couple seemed to be getting along quite well.
All the furniture in the new house has been moved in, and it's all brand new. You can move in right away. When you drive there, you carry all your bags upstairs, and then it's time to put things away and tidy up.
The sofa cover, cushions, and even the curtains for the French windows are all stored in the cabinet, but they haven't been touched for months and have accumulated a layer of dust, so they need to be cleaned properly first.
Anya also came over to help and took the opportunity to visit the couple's new house.
"Why are there two bricks in this bag? What are you going to do with them? Hit someone?"
She picked up a brick, weighed it in her hand, and expressed her curiosity.
"Oh, that's for warding off evil spirits."
As soon as the words left his mouth, Chen Shuo felt that they came out so naturally. He remembered that he had said the same thing when Chen Jianwen asked him the question.
"This brick can ward off evil spirits?" Anya looked like she had just learned something new.
"Yes, put it in the southeast corner of the house."
"And then light a candle?"
“…”
Chen Shuo thought about it seriously for a moment, "Not ordering should be fine too."
The washing machine in the new house is placed directly on the balcony, where water and electricity are connected, making it convenient to use. Unlike before, when we had to push it around and carry it to the bathroom to do laundry.
Moreover, two units were prepared here at once.
The front-loading washing machine is specifically designed for washing large items, such as curtains, sheets, and duvet covers.
Bai Xiaoqi first cleaned the washing machine that had been sitting idle for several months before starting to wash the items. Then she took out a damp cloth and began wiping the nooks and crannies.
Anya, holding a brick, leaned closer and asked, "Your boyfriend said this is for warding off evil spirits, is it really for warding off evil spirits?"
"what?"
Bai Xiaoqi was stunned for a moment, then looked at the brick in her hand, "This can ward off evil spirits?"
"You do not know?"
How would I know?
"It's said to ward off evil spirits and protect the house," Chen Shuo interjected.
"..."
Walnut is quite used to its new environment. Since its spaying wound healed, it has lost all worldly desires and has become a completely detached and ascetic cat. Its weight has also begun to increase steadily.
Every day, I eat and sleep, and it's the same now. I lie in my cat bed, too lazy to come out, licking my paws and watching a few people have a discussion over a brick.
It meowed a few times listlessly, and was just about to curl up and go to sleep when Anya scooped it up, hugged it tightly, and petted it vigorously. "Oh, little kitty, I wouldn't have noticed you if you hadn't meowed. Let your big sister give you a kiss..."
Seeing this, Bai Xiaoqi couldn't help but shrink back; this woman was terrifying.
Fortunately, I hid myself well and she didn't discover my identity.
Chapter 242 This cat had a C-section
The first few days after moving were spent tidying up and setting up. Actually, it's not so much tidying up as a thorough cleaning; the house is big, so there's a lot to clean.
