Beloved Daddy In Apocalypse
04. Buying a Home

At the big hospital in Beijing, Zi Tian who had an accident this afternoon was still lying on top of the hospital ward with some medical equipment all over her body.

Long Hu, Zi Tian's assistant, on the other hand was still looking at the video footage that kept spinning on his iPad screen for several times. What he was watching was CCTV footage showing the street where Zi Tian had been in an accident.

With his premonition as someone who had worked for a long time for Zi Tian and the people behind Zi Tian, he instantly knew who was the mastermind behind the accident. But what made him astonished was the man he had just called, Yin Zhen.

"The speed of the car that hit the Chairman's car is clearly above 80 km/h. With that speed, even cars with heavy loads can be bounced, especially cars driven by the Chairman is only a normal-sized car. Although I shouldn't have said this, it's normal for the Chief to be seriously injured or even die though, I could also see clearly that the people who pulled the Chairman out of the car were shocked when they saw that there was so much blood splattered on the asphalt. But after the arrival of this Yin Zhen, everything became normal. Hospital officials said the chairman lost a lot of blood, but that was quickly resolved. The wounds previously seen on the surface were also already out of sight which should have been the path of the exit of blood. Does this Yin Zhen possess outstanding medical skills?"

As Assistant Chairman Zi who had been dabbling in the bittersweetness of the world for two decades, he had met many doctors who had extraordinary medical abilities. But none of them were able to close the wound just like that. Doctors had previously said that the accident that Chairman Zi had experienced would most likely have taken his life, but it was truly miraculous once they discovered that Chairman Zi Tian had only suffered a few minor injuries and ordinary fractures.

Long Hu finally stopped his activities and stored the iPad on the sofa while sighing softly. "I must investigate further regarding this Yin Zhen. I know that he's not as simple as he looks."

He had examined all of Yin Zhen's life histories, and none of them proved or said that Yin Zhen was a doctor. But strangely he knew at a glance what Zi Tian was going through and even provided emergency help.

He massaged his nose slowly, before picking up his phone and pressing one of his subordinates' contacts.

"Bian Lu, I have a new assignment for you. Monitor the movements of the people I just sent you the data, the more you know, the better."

The person he had just called was one of Chairman Zi Tian's confidences. Bian Lu was very adept at hiding himself in the shadows, unfortunately he was currently on duty abroad, so he could not keep Chairman Zi. But after receiving a call from Long Hu, he unhesitatingly handed over his old duty to others and accepted the task.

Whatever directly related to Chairman Zi, he would agree to it unconditionally.

Long Hu thought, if Yin Zhen was indeed a capable and powerful enough person, he would recruit him and make him as one of his company staff. He had to look for more stronger people in order to protect the safety of Chairman Zi Tian and his family.

The accident earlier was clearly proof that there were many people who hated the presence of Chairman Zi.

The day quickly changed, this was the second day that Yin Zhen returned to his home world. His schedule today was quite solid, in addition to accompanying Yin Mei all day, he would also look for some apartments or houses whose surroundings were much better than his current residence.

After his first agenda was completed, he also might have to buy some clothing sets and other items. Due to the limitations of the previous economy, the usual clothes are no more than four sets of clothes. As for the Yin Mei clothes themselves were quite a lot, yet there was nothing good between them.

After waking up her little girl, she patiently bathed her. Then help Yin Mei put on her clothes. Since Yin Zhen woke up in the morning blind, he cooked first to prepare breakfast.

The two ate a fairly light dish in front of them, just two bowls of porridge and small slices of chicken meat on top. But it tastes good enough and filling to be considered as breakfast.

"Papa, we're going for another walk today?" yin Mei asked curiously.

"True, we're going for a walk while looking for a new place to live. Where does Mei'er want to stay?"

"May'er? I want a house with lots of animals and flowers."

Making the question his benchmark for finding a home, Yin Zhen planned to go out of Beijing and live in a quieter, less populated city. Of course, its beauty must be maintained and away from air pollution.

So he went to the nearby city, Chengdu, which only took a trip of an hour and a half from its location which was fortunately not too far from the city border.

Chengdu City should be quite beautiful and some of the natural beauty there is more dominant than in Beijing.

Yin Zhen carried Yin Mei and placed her in the front seat, as they would be traveling for quite a while, so they decided to go to the supermarket and buy a lot of snacks.

"Papa, where are we going now?"

"We're going to go find a house out of town, but before that we're going to buy snacks at the supermarket."

"May'er likes snacks! I want to buy a lot of chocolate and ice cream!"

"Alright, papa will buy him as much as Mei'er wants."

"Yeah! I love papa!"

"Papa too dear Mei'er..."

The distance from his old apartment to the Supermarket only takes 5 minutes of travel. After properly parking his car, Yin Zhen brought Yin Mei to enter the Supermarket.

As soon as they entered the supermarket area, Yin Mei slightly shuddered in the cold due to the air conditioning installed at each point of the place. But it did not last long until Yin Mei started to get used to that cold air.

With Yin Mei in her carriage, she walked towards the direction where the food trolley was. He then placed Yin Mei at the back of the trolley to sit down, and Yin Mei happily sat there. It was as if he was driving something and his papa was driving it.

The two went around the supermarket and chose a lot of snacks, sometimes Yin Mei also chose female toys, such as a small barbie or a doll that was only the size of an adult's head.

After choosing a lot of food and toys for 30 minutes, Yin Zhen finally paid for all the food and toys he bought.

"The total is 1,304 yuan..."

Leisurely Yin Zhen took out his wallet and paid for it with an account card.

After making the payment process, Yin Zhen placed all the food on the back of the car to make it easier for Yin Mei to pick it up. The little girl also placed the three toys she bought on the front, intending to play them during the trip.

The two continued their journey, until it did not feel like an hour and a half had passed. At least a quarter of the amount of food already purchased was eaten by Yin Mei and Yin Zhen.

Chengdu is a city with a sizeable population, but that only applies to the city center, not the suburbs. Yin Zhen intended to buy a house in the suburban area to be farthest from the noise of the community.

Once they reached their destination, Yin Zhen invited Yin Mei to get out of her car.

Yin Mei looked at her surroundings with a sparkling gaze, "papa, where are we now?"

"We're now looking for a new home, and this place is our first destination."

Hearing that, Yin Mei simply nodded her head in understanding. He could see a house with a simple yet elegant design plastered in front of him. There is also a yard that is quite spacious, at least able to accommodate ten tourist buses in it.

Yin Zhen looked at his surroundings quite satisfied. Last night he was looking for some forums selling houses, and he found these houses quite interesting. Not only far from the community, but also the environment is beautiful and broad.

But what made it most interesting was that from a radius of 3 km, there was no other house besides the simple house in front of him. Although there were some, but it looked like it had been empty for a long time and no one had occupied it for a long period of time.

It was quite frightening indeed, but for him who had seen all sorts of ghosts and demons in the Cultivation World, a small mystical disturbance like a wandering ghost or such would not be a hindrance.

From inside the house, a middle-aged man whose age might be above 50 years old walked slowly closer to Yin Zhen and Yin Mei. He smiled happily as he saw the two were quite satisfied with the environment provided judging from his gaze.

"Hello sir, my name is Gao Chun, I am the manager of this house. How about we take a look around first?" ask the middle-aged man.

He was the one who sold it on the home sales forum in person. The previous homeowner authorized him to sell their house at a free price.

Yin Zhen nodded his head lightly, "no problem..."

With Gao Chun taking the lead, Yin Zhen and Yin Mei entered the house freely.

As soon as the two of them entered the house, Yin Mei exclaimed in admiration, "woww... Very broad. Mei'er had never seen a living room this big before."

Indeed, although the house is simple and built with ordinary materials, the design that prioritizes the area makes the house have more space than the house in general.

"Did Mei'er like this house?"

"Mei'er likes it, but there's no stuff in it, so Mei'er doesn't like it very much..."

"Then we'll buy his things later. Mei'er can buy a couch, a mattress, a television that Mei'er wants."

"really? Then I'll buy doraemon mattresses, doraemon televisions, doraemon sofas, all doraemon!"

Yin Zhen chuckled at the little girl so happily, "alright, papa will buy everything for Mei'er!"

Seeing how young men loved their children made them miss their children too. Gao Chun quietly sighed softly, he then said, "let me show you more room."

During the showing of several rooms, Gao Chun continued to speak, explaining everything to Yin Zhen carefully.

"Although this house is simple, this house carries a modern theme so that almost in all corners there are plugs for electronic devices. There are four rooms that are quite spacious, while the main room is the most spacious room. Each room is equipped with a private bathroom. There is still a living room, living room, living room, workspace, private library, guest bathroom, kitchen, dining room and garage that is spacious enough to accommodate three family cars. For electricity itself attracts billing every year, but for water does not require a cost because it uses a groundwater system."

Yin Zhen could capture one conclusion from all of those explanations, this simple house was indeed spacious enough to accommodate two people living in it. But it doesn't matter.

Every now and then he would touch the floor, the walls and the doors. "Everything is made of ordinary materials, for the sake of Mei'er's safety, I must replace it with better materials."

He then turned his head to look at Yin Mei, "how? Mei'er likes this house?"

Yin Mei nodded her head vigorously, "Mei'er likes it! There's plenty of room here, so Mei'er can play hide-and-seek with papa later!"

Yin Zhen rubbed the tip of Yin Mei's head in a fit of anxiety later.

He turned his head back towards Gao Chun, "I'll buy it. Just say the price."

Both of Gao Chun's eyes sparkled as soon as he heard Yin Zhen's words, finally there were people who wanted to buy his master's house. "The price is only 700,000 yuan. There will probably be some improvements, so master can't directly occupy it. Within three days, the master could return and occupy this house. If there's something you want to know, you can just ask me directly."

"No need to fix it. Do you know anyone who's good at home renovations?"

Wrinkles were seen on Gao Chun's forehead, "one who is good at renovating houses? I know some people, but I know who's the best among them."

"Alright, then call him here. Immediately. The sooner, I'll give you more money."

In spirit, Gao Chun immediately pulled out her phone and called someone she knew in renovating the house. After nearly 20 minutes, a man who was about the same age as Yin Zhen came while driving a car.

"He is the master! Although he was very young, but his skill in renovating the house was the best," Gao Chun directly threw his sweet words to Yin Zhen.

The young man looked dignified with an elegant Innate, he slightly bowed his head towards Yin Zhen, "hello master, I am Hu Lian. I don't dare say I'm the best at renovating, but I'll do well if you want your house renovated."

"Alright, I want the foundation of this house destroyed completely. And then rebuilt with building materials of the highest quality. Regarding the design, I will send it to you later personally. And for the price of materials, there's no need to worry about that, you just have to do your best to renovate this house," yin Zhen said so casually that it made the faces of Gao Chun and Hu Lian a little surprised.

Building a house with the best building quality costs at least more than 3 million yuan. They thought, it seems that this man with a child in his arms is a big tycoon who holds tens of millions of yuan in his hands.

Some of the guesses were correct, but he was not a tycoon. He was just a father who wanted to make his little girl happy.
