To make up for the debt owed to Lin Qingping and Gu Juncheng

Looking at how he paid as if it were nothing, Lin Qingping really had a question she wanted to ask him: Gu Juncheng, do you know how rich I am?

But she remained calm and composed.

That's really who he is.

As long as he's around, it seems like all the responsibility for everything falls on his shoulders.

After a long day of shopping, Lin Qingping was quite tired. She put everything else down and went back to the house, only washing the bedding, which she needed immediately.

I stayed at a hotel again that night.

Moreover, Gu Juncheng slept in the same room as Zhiyuan, while Lin Qingping slept with her younger sister.

There was no time for daydreaming; shopping is really exhausting, and all four of us fell asleep as soon as our heads hit the pillow.

The next day, we officially began decorating the house.

When I arrived at the new house in the morning, the cotton cloth I had washed the night before was already dry.

Lin Qingping and her second sister did this first.

Since the fabric was already cut to size, neither of them used a sewing machine; they sewed it by hand.

After Lin Qingping briefly explained how to sew to her second sister, the two of them worked quickly and finished sewing it in no time.

Seeing Lin Qingping putting on the duvet cover, the second sister exclaimed, "Sister, where did you learn to put on the duvet cover like this? It's so much more convenient than how we do it back home!"

Lin Qingping smiled.

Meanwhile, Gu Juncheng, along with Zhiyuan, wiped down each room again.

I must say, no wonder he's a soldier, he's really good at housekeeping.

The first thing Lin Qingping did was to make up all three beds upstairs so that she could sleep at home tonight!

With extra cotton fabric, Lin Qingping and her second sister sewed three more curtains, the patterns and colors of which perfectly matched the bed sheets, instantly transforming the originally prim and proper bedroom into a warm and inviting space.

Next, we went downstairs to organize the full-wall bookshelf that Lin Qingping wanted.

She chose to buy the tallest cabinet.

When it was delivered, she asked someone to place it against the wall in the downstairs hall.

However, looking at these cabinets now, she feels that they don't quite meet her expectations.

She sat on the floor in the living room, staring blankly at the row of cabinets, imagining what the later popular wooden bookshelves would look like.

Using natural wood color in this house would definitely not work, as it doesn't match the floor color. The color we bought now is quite suitable, with a retro feel, but the style is really not ideal.

"What are you thinking about?" Gu Juncheng sat down next to her.

"I don't think this cabinet is good enough," Lin Qingping said, frowning.

"So, should we cancel it? And go check it out again tomorrow?"

Lin Qingping shook her head. "I didn't find anything I liked better today. Oh well, I'll just have to make do."

“What kind of product do you want?” he asked.

“Yes, it’s like this…” Lin Qingping described what she imagined, “No doors, and more compartments, just like that.”

Lin Qingping drew on the ground with her finger to show him.

He simply handed her paper and pen and asked her to draw.

She drew a rough sketch and handed it to him, saying, "This is it."

What she wanted was to let him know what she wanted, and if he saw something similar after joining, he could bring it back.

To everyone's surprise, he said, "Wait a minute."

Then he went out.

Lin Qingping didn't know what she meant, but resignedly called her second sister downstairs and started setting up the desk.

Her desk was a long wooden table, somewhat like the conference table in her workplace, measuring over three meters in length.

Gu Juncheng didn't know why she wanted such a big table, but since she wanted it, he would buy it!

When he returned, he was surprised to find the desk placed in front of a row of cabinets. "I thought you were using it as a dining table!"

Lin Qingping noticed he was carrying a large bag of tools. "What are you doing?"

Gu Juncheng put the tools on the ground and looked at the row of cabinets. "I'll modify the cabinets for you."

"You...you can do this too?" Lin Qingping could hardly believe her ears. How could he know everything?! "Gu Juncheng, is there anything you can't do?"

Gu Juncheng thought about it seriously for a moment, "There really is."

"What?" She was thinking about building airplanes and cannons, things he probably wouldn't know how to do.

Gu Juncheng glanced at her. "I'll tell you later."

Then, the cabinet renovation began.

Removing the door was easy, but the holes left behind were unsightly, and he had to find a way to repair them.

The shelf spacing of this cabinet is not suitable for storing books, so it needs to be changed.

After silently considering it in his mind, Gu Juncheng felt that it would be more appropriate to simply dismantle it and rebuild it.

However, this is no small project; it certainly cannot be completed in one day.

In the evening, Gu Juncheng was still busy among that pile of wood.

The house, which had been spotless, was now covered in dust again.

Fortunately, the house has two floors, and the upstairs was clean.

Gu Juncheng worked on this cabinet for two days, and it was finally finished on the afternoon of the second day.

Lin Qingping watched the cabinet that perfectly matched her ideal gradually emerge. During this process, she stayed by Gu Juncheng's side, handing him tools and materials. Now, standing amidst the wood shavings, she felt that the cabinet was practically sparkling!

Gu Juncheng is also shining!

"Is that right?" Gu Juncheng asked her.

She nodded vigorously, "That's it! Exactly the same! Gu Juncheng, how are you so amazing!"

Gu Juncheng was immune to her exaggerated praise; it was just a small thing, how could it be considered great?

"You stand over there, I'll clean this place."

Lin Qingping thought for a moment, said "Okay," and went to the kitchen.

Today, I can finally eat in my new home!

Four people, let's just cook a few simple dishes.

She made stir-fried green peppers with pork.

Gu Juncheng really liked this dish. She had eaten at the few canteens with him, and he always ordered this dish. Zhiyuan also loved it.

I also made a stir-fried pork kidney dish.

The pork kidneys she made weren't fishy at all. She removed the white parts inside, then stir-fried them with fermented bean paste, scallions, ginger, garlic, and chili peppers, making them especially appetizing.

Then I stir-fried some cabbage and made a tomato and egg soup.

After preparing the three dishes and soup, Gu Juncheng's side was also cleaned up.

The house is clean and tidy again, except the bookshelves are still empty, but they will gradually be filled up in the future.

"Dinner's ready!" Lin Qingping called out with a smile. Her second sister, who was upstairs making curtains for the study, Gu Juncheng, who was covered in sawdust and going to take a shower, and Zhiyuan, who was doing something, all came downstairs.

The room already had a dining table, but it was very small, and there was a piece of it that had been burned black in the middle.

Upon seeing this, Gu Juncheng said, "If we had known that was a desk, we should have bought a dining table instead. This one is too old."

"No need! It's fine!" Lin Qingping took the freshly sewn cotton cloth from her second sister and covered the dining table. "It's perfect like this, and it matches the color of the curtains downstairs beautifully!"

Upon seeing it, Gu Juncheng had to admit that it was indeed not bad.

"Come on, sit down. Today, we're celebrating our housewarming! We're officially moving into our new house!" Lin Qingping handed four bottles of Arctic Ocean soda to Gu Juncheng. "Open them!"
