Su Chen was looking forward to seeing the house, too.
After all, he hadn't seen it yet.
Su Yinuo was even more glad she'd come to her dad's for dinner that night and suggested moving in.
Otherwise, if she'd moved in later, she might not have gotten to choose a room. Her sisters could have picked first, leaving her with whatever was left.
All three of them were in high spirits.
Dinner disappeared in no time.
Su Zihan wanted to clear away the dishes, but Su Chen told her to stop.
He went to his room and retrieved the keys from the housewarming gift pack the system had given him, then took his two daughters outside.
The new home was in their complex, in Building 1, Room 502—the best spot in the whole complex, the King of the Building.
It was a duplex, so the suite included both the fifth and sixth floors.
The attic above the sixth floor came free, with a generous 150 square meters of extra space.
And that didn't even include the free bay windows, study, and other areas.
The actual usable floor space was at least 500 square meters.
It was lavish beyond belief!
Su Chen had been thrilled just looking at the floor plan.
When he brought his daughters to see the new home, they were so excited they cheered at the entrance like little kids.
The place had been freshly renovated, a striking contrast to the old, weathered walls outside.
The decor was incredibly luxurious, too. There was even a living room with a six-meter-high ceiling. Just standing at the entrance and looking in left Su Zihan and Su Yinuo wide-eyed with amazement.
"Come on in," Su Chen said with a smile.
"Dad, are there shoe covers here? Our shoes are so dirty. I can't bear to walk on such clean floors," Su Zihan said.
Su Yinuo opened the shoe cabinet beside her and found shoe covers, then handed a pair to each of them.
Even Su Yinuo, who was usually so carefree, couldn't bring herself to walk straight into such a beautiful, pristine home. She wanted to put on shoe covers first, too.
She was afraid they'd track dirt all over the place.
The three of them went inside.
Su Yinuo leaped straight onto the sofa and sprawled out. "Dad, this sofa is so soft and comfy~~"
"And with these high ceilings, watching TV while lying here would make me feel like the happiest person in the world~~"
"Yinuo, be careful when you sit on the sofa. Don't bounce around and break the springs," Su Zihan reminded her.
"Got it, big sis~" Su Yinuo made a face at her, then sprang off the sofa and excitedly went to look at the rooms.
Watching his daughters' excitement, Su Chen smiled with satisfaction.
The real thing was so much more beautiful than the floor plan he'd seen before.
All the materials used in the renovation were top quality. Marble Roman Pillars and wooden ceiling and wall panels were everywhere, along with marble stairs, leather sofas, leather dining chairs, and more.
The overall style leaned toward the New Chinese Style.
It wasn't as heavy as traditional Chinese decor or as over-the-top as European style.
The New Chinese Style blended classical beauty with a modern sensibility.
He loved this style!
Especially the door frames between the living room and balcony. Instead of plain rectangles or European-style arches, they had elegant half-circle arches in the New Chinese Style, full of classical charm.
The balcony was huge—big enough to go jogging on.
He pushed open the window and saw an artificial lake not far away.
Green shrubs surrounded the lake, though now they were buried under thick white snow.
The scenery was lovely.
No wonder it was the King of the Building!
The view was so open and unobstructed.
On a sunny day, sunlight would reach every room in the house.
Compared with this place, the apartment he'd rented was like heaven and earth!
The building had been so close to the ones in front and behind it, and the apartment was on the third floor. Even on a sunny summer day, he'd needed to turn on the lights indoors. The place had terrible natural light.
Here, he wouldn't have to worry about that at all.
Good natural light made all the difference!
He wouldn't feel the slightest bit cramped living here!
And with this six-meter-high living room, his second daughter was right: living here would make you feel like the happiest person alive~
"Dad! Dad! Nuonuo! Come upstairs, there's a whole other world up here!" Su Zihan had run upstairs and was now calling excitedly from the landing.
After Su Chen and Su Yinuo went upstairs, Su Zihan led them to the attic above the sixth floor.
When Su Chen looked at the floor plan, he'd learned that the house came with a 150-square-meter rooftop terrace.
But when he saw the terrace in person, he was still completely dazzled.
It had already been fully furnished.
There was a glass sunroom with aluminum frames in the New Chinese Style, plus built-in flower beds where bright chrysanthemums were blooming. Their vivid colors stood out in the winter.
There were also trees, flowers, and plants whose names he didn't know.
The entire floor was laid with durable, rot-resistant merbau wood. It felt great underfoot, and he didn't have to worry about slipping.
There was also a rockery and pond, with water flowing through it and no ice in sight.
To his surprise, golden koi swam back and forth in the pond.
Mist drifted around it, and colorful lights shimmered on the water, making it especially striking and beautiful on that winter night.
"Dad, this house is amazing, just amazing~ The terrace is so big! Can I grow some flowers here someday?" Su Zihan turned to look at Su Chen, her bright eyes sparkling.
Su Chen smiled. "Of course."
He was a rough sort of guy and knew nothing about gardening.
Whatever made his daughters happy was fine by him.
"Dad, they even installed a fireplace in this sunroom!" Su Yinuo had already darted inside. She pressed a switch on the wall, and the fireplace built into it sprang to life.
Real flames blazed inside, glowing bright red.
They looked especially vivid in the night.
"Dad, having barbecue and beer here while it's snowing would be incredible!" Su Zihan bounced over, excitedly chiming in.
The sunroom wasn't open-air. It had sliding doors on three sides that could be shut.
Once it was closed up and the fireplace was lit, the winter cold wouldn't bother them at all.
On a cold winter's day, they could admire the snowy garden while eating barbecue or hot pot. Just imagining it made her happy.
The sisters were incredibly excited that night.
They'd never even dared to dream of living in a house this big, this luxurious, and equipped with everything.
After seeing the attic on the top floor, Su Yinuo and Su Zihan went back inside to pick their rooms.
In the end, both of them happily chose large suites facing south.
Each suite had a built-in walk-in closet, a private bathroom, a TV, and a desk.
It was absolutely heavenly.
It was as if Su Chen had known they were moving in all along. Every room even had a different style.
The room Su Zihan chose was a classic pink princess bedroom.
Su Yinuo chose a room in a light, luxurious gray-and-white style.
They were both delighted.
Su Chen was also very pleased with his spacious master bedroom and its two-meter-wide bed.
Thinking that he'd one day lie in that big bed with the girls' mother, Lin Wanxue, filled him with hope for the future~
After seeing the house, Su Zihan thought of something. Her excitement faded, and she asked cautiously, "Dad, did you take out a huge loan for this house?"
Su Yinuo, realizing it only then, immediately looked at Su Chen. "Dad, this house must've cost at least 25 million."
Dad had bought a house this big just because they'd come looking for him.
Did that mean he'd be saddled with a huge mortgage?
Both girls looked at Su Chen anxiously.
Su Chen smiled. "Dad paid for the house in full. I didn't take out a loan."
"You paid in full?!" Su Zihan asked, her face full of shock.
Su Yinuo was stunned, too.
This house had to cost at least 25 million!
And that was just the price of the bare shell. With such luxurious, exquisite renovations, it could easily be worth 30 million!
