Chapter 384 The New House, Moving Out, and the Liveliness of the Future

Since the end of the SAT test, Li Jie has started to look for a house. Because he now feels more and more inconvenient to live at home.

He needs an independent space to do various things. And Peter and Harry are also very supportive of Li Jie moving out, because for these two best friends, if Li Jie finds an independent house, then the two of them will have an extra place to stay.

"Do you know how many excuses I have to think about every time I go home, especially when Aunt May sees me with bruises on my face when I come home from Spiderman? Skateboarding and wrestling, falling down playing basketball, being caught by the school team football Athletes hit me." Peter couldn't help but hold his forehead when he said these words.

"Those shitty excuses make me look like a super sports idiot, it's just fucking ugly."

Li Jie and Harry have different opinions on this: "Before you became Spider-Man, you were a sports idiot. Shooting inside the free throw line, and you missed five out of ten shots. There is nothing to argue about."

"That was the past! That was the past!" Peter said convincingly, "I'm different now. So, buddy!" Peter put his shoulders on Li Jie's shoulder and said seriously.

"Please rent a larger house and reserve a room for me. If necessary, I may come back to you for the night."

Li Jie patted Peter's hand on his shoulder away in disgust: "Please, you will be a freshman at New York University soon, don't you want to rent an apartment with Gwen outside? Why come to my place to join in the fun. "

Harry raised his eyebrows and looked at Peter when he heard what Li Jie said, looked at Peter with some malicious eyes and said, "Could it be that Gwen treats you..." Harry showed a weird smile.

"Come on guys! Keep your minds clean! Gwen is a very strict girl! Think of her father, the serious old sheriff. And how I explained to Gwen where I got my money in New York Renting a house near the university?" Peter patted his head depressedly, and it seemed that the last question was the key.

"The slightly better apartments near New York University all cost more than two thousand dollars in rent. I can't reasonably explain the real source of this money. After all, it is impossible for Uncle Ben to give me so much pocket money. And Gwen is too smart Now, I always feel that she seems to have discovered something, I don't know if she has guessed my real identity."

Li Jie and Harry looked at each other, and shook their heads at the same time: "As for the money issue, you can go to a part-time job after you go to university, and the laboratory of the Osborne Group can provide you with a job. You have considerable experience in the biological field." Not bad. In this way, your Spider-Man royalties can also be transferred to your account through the Osborne Group."

"So you don't need to worry about money." Li Jie patted Peter's arm. Compared with the Peter in the movies and cartoons that Li Jie had watched, the life of Peter in this world is much easier.

Uncle Ben did not die, and the financial pillar of the family did not collapse. There is no such thing as Aunt May having to sell the property in order to pay Peter's exorbitant tuition fees.

Peter Parker didn't go to the Daily Bugle as a part-time photographer to take pictures of himself as Spider-Man in exchange for cheap money.

Even because of the establishment of the comic company, Peter actually has a considerable deposit in his hand.

"I'm not doing Spider-Man for money. You know it!" Peter shook his hands, expressing his will: "We don't want to change the world!"

"Yes, it is indeed to change the world, but I think you should take care of your relationship with Gwen first. College is not high school, and Gwen will meet all kinds of handsome guys! I think Peter Parker needs Work harder." Li Jie pointed to Peter and said jokingly.

"But Jason, I think you'd better find a bigger house." While talking, Harry suddenly interjected.

"Don't tell me that you occasionally want to spend the night with me?" Li Jie stared at Harry and said, "Your family's manor has more than fifty rooms for you to sleep in!"

"That's the problem!" Harry said bluntly: "Osborne Manor is too big. I didn't feel that way when I lived with my father, but since my father passed away, this house is too big for me. I'm gone. Although there are many servants, you have to understand that there is still a difference."

"Where's Mary? Isn't she supposed to move in with you?" Peter was talking about Harry's girlfriend, Mary Jane.

"She is an actress on Broadway. She often has performances and tours. She can't be in New York all the time, let alone live in Osborne Manor all the time." Harry said a little depressed.

"Mary is an assertive and strong woman. I can't ask her to give up her career for me. If I did, I think our relationship will be blown!"

Harry was telling the truth, too. Although Mary Jane fell in love with Harry, she was not the kind of girl who was attached to Harry. Although Harry is now the world's top rich man, if Mary needs it, Harry can provide her with all the material life she needs.

But this girl is not very interested in this. She has more self-seeking and self-realization and perfection, and she firmly does not allow Harry to intervene in this field. For her it was her life, independent and strong, which was the truest portrayal of Mary Jane.

She likes to shine on the stage, and she hopes that her performance can resonate with the audience, make everyone cry, and make everyone laugh. This is an artistic pursuit.

She also likes to travel with Harry on vacation when she is resting. The relationship between the two depends on each other, but they do not interfere with each other. Mary Jane never interfered with Harry's other lives, she was always just silently supporting Harry behind his back. For Mary's tolerance, what Harry voted in return was the silent support behind Mary.

It can be said that since Norman passed away, Mary has become one of the most important pillars in Harry's heart.

Mary Jane and Gwen Stancy are the symbols of independent women in the new era, they have a good balance between love and career, family and personal.

They are not completely dependent on men, they have their own independent lives, but when their other half needs support, they will not hesitate to contribute their strength and tenderness.

Such women are indeed very good, Harry and Peter like their girlfriends very much, but at the same time, these two men have no right to interfere with their life goals.

"So what you mean is to find a place where you can occasionally come to have a party, play games, or have a place to go when you quarrel with your girlfriend and get kicked out, or even find a place to throw up after getting drunk one day? This Like a free hotel, or a shelter for scum?" Li Jie didn't say a word, Peter and Harry nodded once.

"That's right, that's right! That's what it means!" Peter admitted shamelessly.

"Get lost!" Li Jie mercilessly kicked Peter and Harry in the ass, sending them flying.

……………………

After various twists and turns and bargaining, Li Jie finally decided to find a bigger house. Regardless of whether it will become a scum shelter for his own harmed friends in the future, at least a bigger house will be more convenient.

Gwen helped find the house. As the daughter of the deputy commissioner of the New York City Police Department, Gwen actually knows a lot of people, including various high-quality real estate agencies.

In order to cultivate his daughter's temperament and vision, George took Gwen to attend many high-level receptions. After all, no matter how upright George is, he still has some smooth skills on the surface, otherwise he wouldn't be able to hold such a high position.

As one of the most powerful people in New York City, George still has to attend various high-level receptions.

The house that Gwen helped find was a two-story detached cottage located on the border of Queens and Long Island, with a loft and basement. There are a total of five habitable rooms. Living facilities including kitchen, living room and dining room are all on the first floor.

The floor area of ​​the whole house is about 220 square meters, and there is also a garage and a 50 square meter back garden.

"It's still quite good here, this house. It can fully meet your needs Jason." Gwen took Li Jie to see the house, and Gwen said after helping Li Jie visit the whole house.

"I think most likely Peter will come to you to play games in the future, but I still hope that you will supervise him before it is too late."

"Huh?" Li Jie looked at Gwen with a stiff face.

Gwen raised her eyebrows: "Is it strange? Isn't the reason why you are looking for a big house because you three old friends sometimes do some ulterior motives here."

"Please don't say it so vulgarly, Gwen. The most we can do is just play games together." Li Jie really thinks that Gwen is a little too smart. Both are a little too high. It's really rare that Peter didn't reveal himself for so long.

"Ah~, game~." Gwen smiled and patted Li Jie on the back.

After seeing the whole house, Li Jie is still very satisfied. Although the rent is a bit expensive, the rent of more than seven thousand dollars a month is really not cheap, but now Li Jie can still afford this part of the expenses.

After all, he has part of the income from the comic company, and the part-time consultant work in the Osborne Group also has a salary of 500,000 US dollars a year. From various aspects, Li Jie can be regarded as an upper-income earner in the middle class in the United States.

Now that the house is settled, it is natural to move as soon as possible. Peter, Harry and their girlfriends, Gwen and Mary all came to help, and at the same time, it was considered popular for Li Jie to move to a new house.

The furniture left by the previous owner, Li Jie, has basically been put into the basement. He doesn't like to use other people's second-hand furniture very much. So now all the furniture in the house is newly purchased by him from the mall.

Both Peter and Harry happened to be helping out with the manual work and arranging the furniture, while Gwen and Mary were helping with the cleaning.

"Is the TV cabinet here? I think it can be released a bit. In the future, we can buy a PS4 and XBOX, and a 60-inch color TV in the living room! We can play games in the living room!" Peter made a decision without authorization, It doesn't matter whether the owner of this house agrees to do so.

"Good idea. If Mary goes on tour, I don't think I will go back to the manor. So Jason, you'd better prepare a bigger wardrobe in my room. I have a lot of clothes." Harry also said without authorization. Make your own decisions.

Li Jie touched his forehead, feeling that he needed to be quiet, it seems that he did not move out of the house to build a shelter for these two guys!

Ding dong~! The doorbell rang. "I'll open the door." Seeing that the men who were adjusting the furniture were not free, Gwen volunteered.

The door opened, and a woman with an exquisite oriental face appeared in front of Gwen. Her long black hair like lake silk was tied behind her head in a braid.

"Are you?" Gwen was wondering if this is the community social worker? It looks so beautiful, Gwen has a feeling of being amazed.

"My name is Lan. May I ask if Jason lives here?" The girl who came was Lan. It seemed that Gu Yi had already told her about letting her go to the mortal world to experience, and at the same time help find the successor of the supreme mage.

"Oh, yes. Please come in." Gwen quickly let Lan into the room, and at the same time shouted in the direction of the living room: "Jason, there is a beautiful girl looking for you."

Hearing Gwen's voice, Peter and Harry followed Li Jie curiously to see who was looking for him. They knew that Li Jie didn't know many beautiful girls.

"Hello, Jie." Lan saw Li Jie coming, and called Li Jie by his Chinese name instead of his English name. Because she may be more used to being called by a Chinese name.

"Oh, Lan welcomes you." Li Jie held out his hand and shook Lan.

Both Harry and Peter knew Lan, but it was the first time that Lan found Li Jie directly, not as a mage. The two looked at each other and saw the surprise in each other's eyes.

However, the two girls, Gwen and Mary, got together, as the natural gossip souls of women were burning in their bodies, and they were guessing what the relationship between the two was.

"Who do you think this girl is?"

"Jason's girlfriend?"

"I don't know, it's possible. But it's also possible that it's his relative. She directly calls Jason Jie, which is how his family calls him."

When the two girls were whispering, Lan interrupted their speculation: "I think you should already know."

Lan's words were a bit of a charade, but Li Jie knew what she was talking about, so Li Jie said, "Yes, I know."

"Then I will trouble you in the future, I will live here from now on." Lan showed a smile and looked at Li Jie, Li Jie nodded at this.

And Peter and Harry looked terrified, exchanging messages with each other's eyes.

"When did they hook up?"

"have no idea!"

"Oh my god! Jason actually chased a mage! It's terrible!"

"Wait, is that why he really needs to move out?"

"Not sure!"

"Then shall we come again in the future?"

"decide as things go!"

Li Jie silently glanced at the two who were passing messages to each other with their eyes, and suddenly felt that his life after moving out might be troublesome.
