The East District and West District sections of Tangning New Residence are separated by a road.
Song Yunshen and his uncle's family all live in a 160-square-meter flat in the West District.
Song Minggui, on the other hand, lives with his parents in an 80-square-meter apartment in the East District.
This 80-square-meter apartment was a resettlement house for the elderly couple. Song Minggui also owns two other apartments, both of which are rented out.
Song Wantang lives in a 120-square-meter apartment in the West District with her two daughters.
Grandpa Song Qingeng out for a walk, strolling around the West District to chat with old friends and maybe play some chess.
At this moment, Song Yunshen, holding Gaogao's dog leash, led Xia Kening out of the West District gate and arrived at the entrance of the East District residential area. They then continued walking south along the street and stopped in front of a small shop.
"Haven't you been to this store before?"
"I've been here before." Xia Kening looked at the familiar convenience store with a strange expression. "You own this place?"
"My grandma runs it," Song Yunshen said with a smile. "Come on, let me introduce you to the place. Later, you can easily get a free ice cream or something by sweet-talking my grandma."
Xia Kening blinked and followed Song Yunshen into the shop, still feeling a little surprised.
Although she usually lives at school and doesn't have many opportunities to buy things here, she does come here on weekends if her family is short of rice, flour, or cooking oil.
Yes, we always ask her to come downstairs and buy things here.
It's impossible to say I'm not familiar with it.
Thinking about it, Gaogao next to me looks kind of familiar.
They should have met at least a few times.
"Grandma!" Song Yunshen greeted the old lady behind the counter as he walked in. "I brought a friend over for a visit and brought Gaogao back for you!"
"Oh! Shenshen." Grandma looked at him with a smile, and then saw an exceptionally cute little girl peeking out from behind him. Her eyes narrowed with laughter.
"Hello, Grandma, you can just call me Ningning." Xia Kening was quite skilled at it, and this was the second time she had introduced herself to Song Yunshen's elders. Her speech was even more fluent than before.
"Hello, Ningning." Grandma smiled and came out from behind the counter, taking Ningning's little hand and leading her towards the snack cabinet. "See what you want to eat? Take a lot."
"No, no, we just had breakfast." Xia Kening didn't expect the grandmother to be so hospitable, and waved her hands repeatedly to decline.
Song Yunshen, standing to the side, didn't stand on ceremony. He took a plastic bag from the counter and started stocking up. "What do you want to eat? Just take it, don't be shy."
Seeing his posture, Xia Kening slightly opened her mouth, then blinked and pointed a little shyly, "Then, then this one."
" QQ Candy," Song Yunshen said with a smile, taking out a few packets. " Little Brat, you love eating this, don't you?"
"You're the Little Brat," Xia Kening muttered softly, making sure her grandmother didn't hear.
Song Yunshen led her around the shop, successfully delivering the Gaogao, then said goodbye to his grandmother and left with Xia Kening.
On the way home, Xia Kening couldn't help but exclaim, "How many shops around here do you own? It feels like you've bought them all!"
"This used to be Tangning Village," Song Yunshen said. "My parents are from the village; they grew up here, so all our relatives on both sides are from the village."
"After the demolition, many relatives were allocated apartments, and some were allocated shops on the street. Some people even paid for them themselves."
"In short, at least half of the shops around this neighborhood are owned by villagers. You'll get used to it."
Listening to what he said, Xia Kening couldn't help but mutter, "Damn those demolition beneficiaries, they're having such a great time."
"Didn't this also benefit you?" Song Yunshen chuckled and ruffled her hair. "Next time you go to my grandma's shop, take whatever you want, just put it on my tab."
"No way!" Xia Kening shook off his thieving hand. "I have my own money to buy it."
Just because she accepted Song Yunshen's invitation to dinner doesn't mean she can accept taking other people's things without permission using Song Yunshen's name.
She wouldn't want to take advantage of such a bargain.
Song Yunshen had only mentioned it casually, and seeing her reaction, he didn't bring it up again, leading her all the way back to West District.
The two took the elevator to the 18th floor, but before Song Yunshen could open the door, Xia Kening had already subconsciously walked to the door, pointed it at the door lock camera, and even changed into Song Yunshen's slippers.
When she came to her senses, she realized what had happened, and quickly blushed as she stepped aside and returned the slippers to Song Yunshen.
"You really think you're at home?" Song Yunshen said, both amused and exasperated. "I might as well just record your face."
"I forgot!" Xia Kening said loudly to ease the awkwardness, "It's all your fault!"
She had been to this place twice before. Although she was using Song Yunshen's body, she knew the place like the back of her hand, as if she were at home.
Song Yunshen suppressed a laugh as he opened the door, then picked out a pair of guest slippers from the shoe cabinet and handed them to Xia Kening's feet. He glanced subconsciously at her cute little feet encased in white stockings, then immediately stood up.
I just finished playing badminton, so I'm bound to smell bad.
"Come in," Song Yunshen said. "Anyway, you're already quite familiar with my house, so I won't introduce you."
"I'm not that familiar with it—" Xia Kening changed into slippers and followed him into the house, muttering under her breath, "I've only been here twice."
Although she had been here twice before, this was the first time she had come to Song Yunshen's house in her true form, and Xia Kening was still a little nervous.
Seeing Song Yunshen's exquisite home decor and the living and dining room, which were even larger than her own, she couldn't help but feel a little envious.
"What would you like to drink?" Song Yunshen asked Xia Kening as he opened the refrigerator.
"Yogurt, please." Xia Kening glanced at it, reached for a bottle of yogurt, and said, "Shall we go to the study?"
"Hmm." Song Yunshen grabbed a bottle of Mizone for himself, then pulled out an ice cream. "Want this?"
"Huh?" Xia Kening was somewhat tempted, but still shook her head with difficulty, "I can't eat that today."
Song Yunshen raised an eyebrow and subconsciously looked down. "Are you on your period?"
"Do you have to be so direct!" Xia Kening blushed slightly and said irritably, "This is my privacy, okay?"
"As the second user of your body, I also have the right to know your physical condition," Song Yunshen said shamelessly. "What if we switch bodies one day when you have your period?"
"That's good too. I feel awful when I have my period."
"You still want to play badminton with me?"
"The portion isn't large," Xia Kening muttered softly, "But it can't be eaten cold."
"Then I'll get you a bottle of room temperature yogurt, don't drink it cold." Song Yunshen reached out and took the yogurt from her hand, then bent down and took a new bottle from the box next to him. "Come on, let's play games."
"Okay~" Xia Kening took the room-temperature yogurt, feeling a little touched. She followed Song Yunshen with small, quick steps and entered the study.
Song Yunshen glanced at the cameras in the living room and study, silently took out his phone, opened the monitoring screen, and only felt slightly relieved after confirming that the number of viewers was "1".
With Lao Song not around, I can relax a bit more.
