Xiao Ziyou left her grandparents' house and just learned the name of the new tenant in the rental house. From the appearance described by her grandma, she was very sure that he was Shang Yu.
My love heart is still burning, so I would like to take this opportunity to come and have a look.
The strange girl made her face suddenly darken. Her brother Xiao Ye saw it at a glance. Without waiting for an explanation, he apologized with a gentle smile, and then pulled his sister into the elevator.
"It's not polite to stare at people like that."
Xiao Ziyou had no idea and didn't know how to explain it. She lowered her head and asked her brother why he came to repair the water heater himself if he didn't say he was busy with the store expansion recently.
Xiao Ye gently touched his sister's soft head and said, "You don't even want to call me. I don't know if my grandparents are doing well or not."
Xiao Ziyou nodded sheepishly. He was worried about his internship in the hospital recently.
She could have interned at the Third Hospital with Shang Yu, but the number of places was limited, so she was squeezed out by a related employer.
She had been waiting for this day for a long time, even if she was rejected when she confessed to her not long ago.
"Brother, that girl is so pretty."
After getting out of the elevator, Xiao Ziyou started talking for no reason.
"My skin is white, my legs are long, my features look like a porcelain doll, and my eyes can talk. Compared with her, I am really ugly."
Xiao Ye didn't think so and praised his sister's features from the bottom of his heart, firmly believing that she was the cutest and most beautiful sister in the world.
In the past, Xiao Ziyou would have accepted it happily, holding his brother's arms and acting coquettishly.
But that girl may be the businessman's girlfriend. Men still value appearance. Even if she is good-looking, she is not as good-looking as her. I no longer believe my brother's words 100%.
"Brother, I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."
His sister refused to send him off, so Xiao Ye had no choice but to obey her wishes. He turned the steering wheel and prepared to turn around when his cell phone rang.
The voice sounded a little familiar.
Xiao Ye returned to the door of the rental house.
Yu Niao didn't expect that the house next door was also the property of the boy in front of her, so she smiled politely. Compared to her embarrassment and awkwardness, Lu Zihu was very straightforward.
"Someone introduced this room to my friend. Can you open the door and let us have a look?"
Yu Niao noticed that the other party was staring at her with a puzzled face, and explained with an awkward smile: "My friend rents a house next door, and I'm just staying temporarily."
Xiao Ye smiled and nodded. He opened the door with the key lightly and silently. The indoor doors and windows were closed tightly, and there was a faint smell of mothballs floating in the air.
He softly told the two of them to wait at the door for a while, then hurriedly opened the window for ventilation, and then opened the master bedroom and bathroom doors.
Check water, electricity, natural gas and each door one by one to see if they are in good condition.
"If you two live together, the living room can be used to create a bedroom. If you don't mind, I can help you. There is no extra cost."
"No, my friend lives alone in this house. Good community security is the most important thing." Lu Zihu was quite satisfied with the house. The next step was the rent.
Xiao Ye lowered the rent by 100 yuan and paid 1000 yuan per month. He also gave a special reminder: If you have trouble contacting him, you can go to unit 203 next door and knock on the door to find him.
He fainted due to fatigue, so he planned to recuperate for a month and leave the job of expanding the barbecue restaurant to his brothers.
The contract is handwritten, and once you sign your name and pay the rent, it's done.
Before Xiao Ye left, he also checked the gate and security door, and left after confirming that they were correct.
Lu Zihu closed the door and nodded at Yu Niao, teasing her that she had a brain and remembered to contact her to help look after the house.
The house was not big, so it was not difficult for the two of them to clean it. In the past hour, the one-bedroom and one-living house had become brand new.
Lu Zihu was entrusted by Niao to feed Ping An and Xi Le, change the water, and go for a walk.
Taking advantage of this time, Yu Niao also cleaned Shang Yu's house, picked up his quilt and pillows and took them to the balcony to bask in the sun.
There was his short fallen hair on the pillow, which was slightly hard and dark, reminding her of the hair of Joy.
Everything he saw was black, white and gray. There were red, blue and purple sweatshirts hanging in the open wardrobe. Every time he saw him, he was dressed in black.
His items all retain the bitterness and fragrance of grapefruit.
Thinking back to it, when she went shopping in the supermarket just now, she seemed to have couldn't help but pick up a bottle of grapefruit body lotion, which had a similar smell.
What am I doing? It’s not grapefruit. Oh, don’t even think about it!
When Lu Zihu opened the door and came in, he saw Yu Niao lying on the folded black quilt and patting his head. When he got closer, he heard her talking to herself.
"Niaoniao, you look weird. Is this related to Shang Yu?"
Yu Niao was stunned. She didn't know how Lu Zihu could accurately grasp the key points. He coughed to hide his panic, turned around and smiled:
"A little bit. I just paid the rent and spent a lot of money. I'm wondering when I will pay back the money I owe him."
Yu Niao did not bite her fingers. Lu Zihu's eyes shifted to her face:
"People always come to you to borrow money. What happened?"
"I accidentally stepped on his bed board."
When Yu Niao saw Lu Zihu opening his mouth and looking at her in disbelief, she hurriedly waved her hands, "Well, don't think too much about it. Ping An and Xi Le and I just met that day and were frightened. It was purely an accident."
What surprised Lu Zihu was that Yu Niao and Shang Yubi were more familiar than he thought. The reaction was so great that he had to wonder if there was a story between them.
"Sixiao, no matter what time or what happens, protect yourself."
Yu Niao was speechless and spread out his arms to hug her, "You too. Zihu, if you can't find me one day, don't be sad, you still have to live your life well."
Without waiting for her friend to ask further questions, she happily brought up other topics, and just then the takeaway was delivered to her door.
Lu Zihu suddenly realized that her worries were not unfounded. However, she also knew that the more worried she was, the greater the pressure would be on her, so he cooperated with her in pretending to be happy.
Yu Niao saw it and silently hid her emotions until Lu Zihu left. Staring at the closed door, her eyes instantly became wet.
"Dong dong dong."
Yu Niao stood up immediately, "Who?"
"I'm Xiao Ye."
Yu Niao opened the door and saw Xiao Ye holding an energy-saving light bulb in his hand and smiling at her.
"After all, the lamp in the bedroom has been used for a long time, and it feels like it will stop working at any time. I bought a new one on the way to avoid causing trouble to you in the future."
Yu Niao was very surprised. Apart from thanking her, she didn't know what to say for a while.
"It's been changed, it's basically no problem." Xiao Ye washed his hands and walked out of the bathroom with a smile on his face.
Yu Niao handed over the tissue and said, "Thank you very much."
Xiao Ye noticed that Yu Niao's eyes were red, and after looking at each other for a long time, he quickly moved his head away, took out three White Rabbit toffees from his pocket and gave them to her.
"This..." Yu Niao didn't understand why Xiao Ye gave her toffee.
"I think your eyes are red from something spicy. Eat something sweet and your mood will feel better."
Yu Niao raised her head and looked at Xiao Ye's smile, raised her lips, "Thank you.
