Chapter 1353: Chapter 1349: Buying a Home in the Provincial Capital
But what she didn’t expect was that Yang Caiyun didn’t hesitate at all and agreed right away.
“Fine, a hundred thousand it is! I agree,” Yang Caiyun said, wiping the tears from her face.
The old lady and Yang Zhiyong were taken aback, clearly not expecting such an immediate agreement.
“Alright then, get the money now. Give us the money and Zhiyong and I will leave right away; we don’t care about your shabby river fish restaurant,” the old lady said sharply, hands on her hips.
At this moment, Yang Caiyun felt immense heartache and had no mind to conceal anything further.
Saying nothing, she took out her phone and made the transfer.
In the memo for the transfer, she wrote that this fee was the cost to sever the mother-daughter relationship.
From then on, the two would no longer have any relationship.
Yang Zhiyong and the old lady were dumbfounded looking at the transfer on the phone.
They truly hadn’t expected Yang Caiyun could actually come up with this sum of money.
What they really wanted was for Yang Caiyun to transfer the river fish restaurant to them.
“You…good! Fine! Yang Caiyun, you really have some nerve!” the old lady reacted and was genuinely furious.
Pointing at Yang Caiyun with trembling fingers, she repeated the word “good” several times.
Beside her, Yang Zhiyong was equally infuriated.
“Do you really want to be so heartless and sever ties with mom and me?” Yang Zhiyong was still not giving up, still hoping to get the river fish restaurant.
But how could Yang Caiyun possibly give him the river fish restaurant?
“It’s not me who’s being heartless, it’s you. Just take the money, from now on we have nothing to do with each other, and don’t ever disturb me again,” Yang Caiyun’s heart was completely cold due to the actions of Yang Zhiyong and the old lady, and she didn’t want to waste another word.
Seeing that there was no room for negotiation, Yang Zhiyong didn’t persist further and chose to back off when it was enough.
“Fine, you said it; from now on, we have no ties whatsoever!” Yang Zhiyong threw down those ruthless words, turned, and pulled the old lady away.
As the old lady left, she kept cursing and swearing, not saying a nice word.
And so Yang Zhiyong left with the old lady.
After the mother and son left, the third floor became utterly silent.
Tears welled up in Yang Caiyun’s eyes once more.
Sitting on the sofa, she cried uncontrollably.
Seeing this, Chen Yang couldn’t possibly remain indifferent.
He sat silently beside Yang Caiyun, offering comfort and enlightenment.
Yang Caiyun understood the reasoning herself.
So, Chen Yang’s comfort quickly took effect, and Yang Caiyun stopped crying.
“Severing ties is good, from now on there will be a lot less trouble. I just hope they won’t come to bother me anymore,” Yang Caiyun stopped her tears and chose not to continue crying.
Chen Yang, sitting beside her, hummed in agreement, showing his support.
“So, should we go to the provincial city today and buy Qianqian a house, to avoid prolonged complications?” After a brief silence, Chen Yang asked.
At this moment, Chen Yang wasn’t really concerned about prolonged complications.
He just simply thought that Yang Caiyun was in a bad mood and going out for a walk might make her feel better.
Yang Caiyun silently considered for a moment and eventually agreed with Chen Yang.
“Alright, let’s leave this afternoon. The sooner we look, the sooner we can return.”
“Okay, go and pack up. After lunch, we’ll set off,” Chen Yang said with a smile, wiping the tear stains from Yang Caiyun’s face, “Look at you, you’ve cried yourself into a mess.”
Yang Caiyun nodded with a smile and then went to her room to pack.
After Yang Caiyun finished packing, and they had lunch together, Chen Yang promptly drove them to the provincial city.
Today might be a holiday, as there were many cars on the highway.
Therefore, Chen Yang’s speed was relatively slow.
A journey that usually took three to four hours took Chen Yang five to six hours today.
Setting off from the river fish restaurant at noon, by the time they arrived in the provincial city, it was already dark.
Thus, Chen Yang first found a luxurious hotel to rest for the night, planning to look at houses the next day.
Yang Caiyun naturally had no objections to this and readily agreed.
Subsequently, the two of them booked a room at a star-rated hotel.
With all the paperwork for the room completed, Chen Yang chose not to dine in the hotel with Yang Caiyun.
Instead, he took her to walk around the bustling area of the provincial city and take a look.
And taste some local delicacies.
On the way there, Yang Caiyun was initially in a relatively low mood, but after the fun, even the worst mood gradually improved.
They walked and stopped, not returning to sleep until close to midnight.
The next day, they woke up naturally, and only then did Yang Caiyun pick up her phone, contacting real estate agents and some sales offices for viewing appointments.
While Yang Caiyun busied herself with making appointments, Chen Yang wasn’t idle.
He also called the front desk to have two lavish breakfasts delivered.
After Yang Caiyun finished her calls, they started eating together.
“Caiyun, I saw you made quite a few calls. How many people did you make appointments with to see houses?” Chen Yang asked while eating.
After having fun last night and a good night’s sleep, the unpleasant emotions from yesterday had long been tossed aside.
“Haha, I thought it wasn’t easy to come here, so I aim to resolve it all at once to avoid another trip, so I made appointments with quite a few. A total of sixteen,” Yang Caiyun replied with a laugh while enjoying her breakfast.
“Sixteen?” Chen Yang was indeed a little surprised; that was quite a lot, viewing each one might dazzle her.
“Yes, what about it?” At the moment, Yang Caiyun was engrossed in the excitement of house hunting, so she didn’t think there was anything wrong with making appointments with so many agents and staff.
“Nothing, nothing, that’s great, try to see them all at once,” Chen Yang smiled and eventually said nothing more, agreeing.
Knowing they had many appointments today, after breakfast, Chen Yang didn’t waste any time and took Yang Caiyun straight out to see the houses.
The first location for a house viewing wasn’t far from their hotel, just a few streets away, reaching the base of the housing development.
It was a neighborhood that had been built several years ago, evident from the exterior.
“Is this the place, Sis?”
Chen Yang pointed outside and asked.
Yang Caiyun, not too sure, took out her phone to check and only nodded once she confirmed the name was correct.
“Yes, it’s here.”
“Alright, let me find a place to park.”
Upon confirming the location, Chen Yang promptly found a spot to park the car.
Then he led Yang Caiyun to enter the neighborhood and contact the agent.
After they contacted the agent, the official house viewing commenced.
The house viewing was quite tedious.
It mainly involved looking at the layout and listening to some professional introductions by the agent.
However, the agent’s introduction should only be taken for the most basic information.
Such as transportation, healthcare, schools—these are tangible things.
These are the ones you can fully trust.
As for what agents say about future appreciation and upcoming developments around the area, those are intangible; you’d be lucky to believe a third of it.
The overall service experience for this house was pretty good.
After about forty minutes of viewing and understanding the basic information, Yang Caiyun told the agent she would consider it, then went on with Chen Yang to view other houses.
