After Surviving the Apocalypse, I Built a City in Another World novel Chapter 983

"Wuuuuuu brotherrrrr wuuu! Uncle! Wuuuuuu!"

Sunny gripped and hugged her last two relatives, sobbing hard. She and Ricky sobbed identically, making no one doubt they were related.

"Sunny!" he said, patting the girl’s head.

Ryan was a lot calmer, but his gentle smile and glistening eyes told everyone he was also emotional.

Knowing this reunion would take a while to calm, Orz and the others went ahead to the Terran Mercenary Team. Ryan and Ricky, who already met Sunny, didn’t have to go and went back to borrow Orz’s living room to talk.

Ouli and the siblings, after greeting Sunny and congratulating them, also left to explore and to give space to the family.

A few minutes after settling in the living room though, Sunny was still sobbing in her brother’s arms, rubbing snot all over him. Ryan did not mind it at all of course, and he patiently waited until she calmed down before they started asking questions.

"We heard you’re doing well here."

She nodded with a bit of pride. It was just that seeing her red face and the sniffling mess that she was, she just looked silly.

"I am a resident and I can buy a property," she said. She just didn’t have money for a villa, but she was very close to being able to pay for a small unit on her own!

"I need a couple more gold for the downpayment," she said, pursing her lips.

She was not so strong as a fighter, nor was she exemplary as a staff in the construction industry, so she took a while to get residency. At the same time, when she did get it, she lost a lot. _{ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm}

After all, the cost of residency was not low and also required a bit of gold, so she needed to save up a bit more for down payment.

The two men’s eyebrows rose at this and they smiled.

"We can help you with that."

…

They pooled their funds together and headed to the Village Center to finally get a downpayment. Because Sunny was the resident, then it was naturally named after her.

However, the two men reiterated that even though they’d be the ones paying for the amortization, and even after they received their own residencies, the house would remain under Sunny’s name.

"Eh? But that’s not fair…" Sunny said, shaking her head. She took them to the Gaea Restaurant for a meal, but she was not expecting this topic to open up.

The downpayment was a small percentage of the overall value of the house. There were also interest rates to consider, so they would be paying a lot more than she did for the house.

The two laughed at her. "Just think of it as our gift to you," Ricky said. "In Terran, it’s pretty normal for family members to help their younger generation buy a house. Not to mention, it’s your residency status that we’re taking advantage of."

"But—" that argument was not valid. They could just gather contribution points on their own and buy their own houses, after all!

"Then think of it as an advanced wedding gift!" Ricky said with a teasing smile. "Do you have a boyfriend already?"

Sunny blushed a bit but shook her head in the end. Ricky wanted to tease her more, while Ryan was nodding in approval of her current single life.

In older-brother-Ryan’s mind, Sunny was still his baby sister and he couldn’t let any stinky men take advantage of her innocence!

It was around this time that the food finally arrived! The uncle-nephew duo (and the niece) gulped when the ala carte dishes were served to them. They ordered three main dishes (a gugu bird, a fish dish, and monster beef), a large plate of specially-flavored rice, two vegetable side dishes, and a cool pitcher of sweetened cucumber juice for a refreshing tang.

The trio ate deliciously and patted their stomachs in satisfaction half an hour later.

"Ah… what I’d do to eat like this every day…" Ricky said, drinking a few more sips of the juice.
