Seeing Yan Qing like this, Fenfen smiled and said, “I have money. This house is worth over five million on the market—sell it to me for five million.”
“I really like this place anyway. If you sell it, I’d actually feel reluctant. And what if one day you come back? At least you’ll still have a home.”
“Really, Fenfen? Are you sure? You really want to buy it? It’s okay, I can wait longer.”
“Of course it’s fine. I was planning to buy a house anyway—might as well buy yours. I really love your interior design.”
“That’s great, Fenfen, thank you!” Yan Qing hugged her tightly. She had been reluctant to sell it to someone else.
After all, it was her first home, and she had put a lot of effort into decorating it.
The next day, Yan Qing went to handle the property transfer.
Aside from the items she had ordered online the night before, Yan Qing and Fenfen went to the daily goods market and finished buying all the toiletries and household supplies on their list.

They went to a coal factory to buy coal and briquettes. They also visited a poultry farm, buying a large number of eggs, including fertilized duck and chicken eggs, and learned about the required temperature and humidity for incubation.

Yan Qing went to the kitchenware market.
Besides the items on the list, she also bought green tea, black tea, kettles, and water containers.
That night, they went to a night market and bought ten portions of various snacks they wanted to eat, storing them in the space.

They stayed home.
Yan Qing organized the space, while Fenfen sorted guides and read novels.
The space was already more than half full, with about one-third remaining—almost enough.
That afternoon, Fenfen made another list, including writing brushes, ink, paper, inkstones, calendars, sewing kits, candles, and socks.
Surprisingly, everything she listed turned out to be useful.
Countdown: 7 days
They followed the new list and went on another shopping spree.
They also bought hot pot base and hot pot ingredients.
Additionally, they purchased an old-style sewing machine for making clothes.
They also stopped by a bookstore and bought books of all kinds—science books, agricultural guides, crafting manuals, and more.
There were all sorts of books, though most were novels—for passing time.
On the way home, they passed a clearance shop and bought a few basins and baskets.
That night, they slept peacefully.
Countdown: 6 days
Received deliveries and organized everything.
Ordered takeout, desserts, milk tea, and cakes.

They went to a cement and sand factory.
Checked off the remaining items on the list, and stored the custom glass windows and stone slabs into the space.

Yan Qing went to her company to complete the handover with the landlord.
She stored anything useful from the company into the space.
In the afternoon, they went to a warehouse supermarket.
They made several trips, stocking up on large quantities of beer and beverages.
That evening, Yan Qing went to her aunt’s house for dinner.
Her aunt asked why she had suddenly come back, but Yan Qing didn’t explain.
Because she knew her departure was inevitable—something she couldn’t change.
So she decided to leave a letter. After she left, Fenfen would deliver it to her aunt.
Countdown: 3 days
Everything that needed to be bought—and even things that didn’t—had mostly been purchased.
They continued ordering various cooked foods and delicacies.
That night, they stayed up late watching and studying survival guides and strategy videos.
