After the college entrance examination, Ethan Chen stayed at home and refused to go out. He promised Du Shuo to continue their marriage before the coming of age. In return, he had to fulfill their husband-wife relationship. On the night of his 18th birthday, he and Du Shuo consummated their marriage and became husband-wife. It was a set-in-stone relationship that could not be repudiated or divorced.
In July, Ethan Chen received the admission letter from University B. He packed up his things and took the train to go to the capital with Du Shuo to study. Grandpa Wu had left him a bank card with a lot of money in it, enough to pay for his tuition and living expenses. However, there was no house in the capital, so if Ethan Chen stayed there, Du Shuo would have nowhere to live.
Although Du Shuo didn't often appear in the world of the living, the two of them also needed some space to be alone, and they couldn't go to a hotel every time they met. So Ethan Chen rented a house near the school after living in the dormitory for a semester. There are many old houses near the school, with quiet environment and cheap price. So he simply rented it for four years and regarded it as a stable home for himself and Du Shuo.
Du Shuo chose to find a job in the imperial capital of the living world when Ethan Chen was a sophomore, and later became the director of the Dafu General Administration. The emperor was not familiar with the worldly life and did not know the high cost of food, oil, salt and firewood. He just heard Ethan Chen complain about the rent increase once and took the money to pay the rent for four years at once. Ethan Chen was very surprised. Only then did he know that Du Shuo had taken a job in the living world.
Ethan Chen asked him: "What job did you take?"
