Chapter 588 - 587: New Member
In her spare time from work, Shen Mingzhu would drive south of the city to look at houses.
She planned to buy either a semi-detached villa or a detached house, as she had grown accustomed to living in a standalone house. She was not pleased with the idea of moving back into an apartment.
But finding a new house that met her desires was not an easy task.
She had looked at quite a few, but either she did not like the layout, or there were not enough rooms.
There was one she liked, a three-story detached villa. It lacked a yard but had a private garage and a total of six rooms. Shen Mingzhu also liked the interior decor. But the price made her shake her head in despair.
If she hadn’t invested the family’s money in Lihua’s project, she could have managed to buy it with help from others.
But now, she did not even have one-tenth of the amount needed for the down payment.
"If you really like that house, we can talk to the landlord tomorrow, pay a deposit to secure it, and then figure out how to raise the money,"
At night, seeing Shen Mingzhu tossing and turning over the house, Pei Yang embraced her and suggested in a hushed tone, "My uncle might still have around a hundred thousand, I could probably borrow twenty thousand from my sister, and get some from Brother Zhao. If that’s still not enough, I’ll take out a loan from the bank."
Hearing him say this, Shen Mingzhu’s affection for the house seemed to diminish.
