Chapter 140: Is The Apartment Too Small?

Having a sweet and adorable daughter still remained a distant dream for Song Ning.

She sighed deeply in disappointment. She placed the bags on the cabinet and said, “Yao yao, can you become a little cuter?”

Then she deliberately blinked at Huo Yao and posed with a victory sign.

Huo Yao glanced at Song Ning’s face and felt her head beginning to throb. She conveniently ignored her words and said, “Mom, is there any food left?”

Song Ning sighed again and replied. “Yes yes yes. I saved you some dinner. Come over and eat.”

Song Ning and Huo Jinyan had already eaten. Huo Tingrui had to attend a business dinner party and would be back late. Hence, Huo Yao sat alone at the dining table and ate slowly.

After dinner, Huo Yao took the bags from the cabinet and headed towards the staircase. She suddenly turned to look at Song Ning, who was watching the television, and asked her. “Mom, are there any empty rooms or a storeroom here?”

Song Ning raised her head and replied in a casual voice. “Well, there’s a storeroom downstairs, but it’s filled with a lot of stuff. Is there something you want to put away?”

“Nope. I need to hand make some stuff and need an empty room,” said Huo Yao unhurriedly.

“In that case...” said Song Ning as she thought, “Your third older brother’s room is vacant. You can do it in his room. It’s to the left of yours.”

Huo Yao thought for two seconds before she asked her. “Are you sure it’s okay?”

Song Ning shook her head and smiled.

“Of course. Your third older brother is overseas currently and doesn’t come home much anyways. You may as well use it.”

Huo Yao nodded at her and went upstairs without speaking further.

After she left, Song Ning touched her chin and contemplated for a moment. Then she turned to her husband and asked him with a frown. “Do you think our apartment is too small?”

She squeezed her eyebrows even more and said, “Look, we can’t even give our daughter her own space. Although her third older brother resides abroad, our daughter will definitely feel bad if she keeps using his room.”

Huo Jinyan put down the remote control. He gave it some thought and agreed with her. “How about moving over to Royal Water Bay? The environment’s good and the villas are spacious. They come with plenty of rooms, and are close to her school. Even if she wants to invite her friends to hang out, we don’t have to worry about them having no rooms to stay in.”

“Oh yes. I would have forgotten about the villa at Royal Water Bay if you didn’t bring it up,” said Song Ning as she slapped her head.

“I will get an interior designer to look at it and see if we need any renovation or new furniture. We must try and move over asap and give our girl a surprise.”

Song Ning was a classic action-driven personality, so she executed the plan the moment she decided. After talking to her husband, she picked up the phone and looked for the interior designer’s number.

Song Ning made an appointment with the designer for the next day. After she put down the phone, she felt sad for a moment. She looked around and took a deep breath. “We’ve lived here for more than 20 years, so I feel a little upset about moving.”

Huo Jinyan raised his brow and patted her on the shoulder as he said, “This is for the sake of our daughter.”

Song Ning thought about her 20 year old home and her daughter’s hard life and all the hesitation in her heart dissipated.

“You’re right. Although we are used to staying in this apartment, our daughter deserves the best,” said Song Ning.

After a pause, she said with a look of regret, “We should have moved before our daughter came to live with us.”

Then she might not have misunderstood, assuming them to be in debt.
