Yun Duo looked out through the security door mirror and saw that it was the landlady standing at the door of her house.
She responded and immediately started to change clothes.
The landlord and his wife were in their late 60s and had only one son. They were still living abroad. They bought a house across the street because they were the only couple living in one house. So they rented out the vacant house.
The old couple like to be quiet and don't like to be disturbed or disturb others. At least this is the first time since she moved in that the landlady came to the door.
After putting on her usual clothes, Yunduo opened the door and smiled sheepishly: "I was in the bathroom just now. Do you have anything to do? Come in and sit down."
"It's been a while since you've been back, right?" The landlady smiled politely, came in, sat down on the sofa, and said straight to the point: "That's it, when Lan Meng (Yun Duo's cousin) rented this house, it was written in the agreement
It's a year. If you don't want to rent, you have to put it forward half a month in advance so that we can be prepared. No, I was just planning to call you these days. When I came back from shopping for groceries, I heard a knock on the door here.
, I guess you are back, so I want to ask if you want to renew the lease? If so..."
The landlady seemed a little embarrassed: "House prices in E-city have risen sharply, and so has the rent. If we rent it, the rent for our house will also rise a little. Little girl, you have to think about it. Since your home is in this city, if you leave
It’s not too far from work, so it’s better to live at home.”
Only then did Yun Duo remember that this was indeed what was written in the agreement that her cousin gave her, and it also said that she would pay the rent half a month in advance, and now the time has indeed come.
To rent or not to rent?
The landlady's kind eyes behind the lenses were waiting for her answer. Yun Duo bit her lower lip slightly and nodded: "Auntie, I'm renewing the lease. Find out the agreement. I'll go downstairs to get the money for you now."
They say a cunning rabbit has three burrows. She is not a cunning rabbit, but she wants to have a place to stay.
I don’t want to make my parents worry, so I don’t want to go home. When I can’t stay in the villa, at least I have a place to stay, which is much better than sleeping on the road or staying in a hotel.
What's more, Zhan Aoze didn't even know about this place. It wasn't far from where she worked, and it was closer than living at home. Even after the one-year agreement, she could still live there.
"Zhan Aoze?" Xu Xue was surprised when she heard the voice coming from the phone.
"Yes, it's me, Xu Xue, could you please come down here?"
In the black car, Zhan Aoze's expression was shrouded in gloom and anxiety.
From the moment he went to pick up the car, his mind was in an unstable state, always feeling like something was going to happen. After driving the car over, as if to test his sensitive sixth sense, he suddenly discovered
Yun Duo didn't stand still, she left quietly...
Zhan Aoze felt that his whole mind was confused. He looked everywhere, but couldn't find even a single figure.
He comforted himself that she had gone to change clothes and get her bag, then drove the car back, and ran back regardless of everyone's surprised looks. There was nothing in the dressing room. He frantically called her several times, but she got through.
No one answered.
At that moment, Zhan Aoze was really panicked. He punched the steering wheel in frustration and drove straight to Xu Xue, hoping to find a glimmer of hope.
"I'll be down soon." Zhan Aoze's voice sounded anxious, and Xu Xue suddenly felt a bad premonition in her heart. After explaining it to her students and colleagues, she quickly rushed into the elevator.
"Xu Xue, here." Zhan Aoze leaned on the car door and waved to Xu Xue.
"Why did you come here alone?" Xu Xue's heart skipped a beat when she saw his expression, and she couldn't help but look into the car: "Where's Duoduo?"
Zhan Aoze's originally hopeful heart sank again.
Xu Xue's expression didn't look like she was lying at all, and her subsequent words further confirmed that Yun Duo had never come to see her at all.
Where will she go?
Zhan Aoze became even more flustered, and without caring about face, he briefly told Xu Xue about Yun Duo walking away alone. Of course, he ignored the matter about You Sisi.
"Zhan Aoze, are you a man? How dare you make Duoduo angry? You must have made Duoduo sad, right?" After Xu Xue heard this, her first reaction was to slap Zhan Aoze in the face.
After scolding, he took out his cell phone and glared at him fiercely: "I'm calling Duoduo. You damn girl, shut your mouth tightly and don't make any sound. Do you hear me?"
No matter what big CEO he is, no matter what creditor he is, if he dares to lose her best friend, he is her enemy at this time.
It was the first time in his life that a little girl had scolded him like this, but he could only listen. Zhan Aoze laughed at himself. He thought that such a day would happen to him, and he really wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl in.
Just after delivering the money to the landlord, Yunduo opened the window with a piece of paper in hand, stood at the window, and stared out of the window almost in confusion.
The sky was getting very dark, and she didn't know if it would rain. A cool breeze blew over, and she couldn't help shivering because of the cold. She remembered that there were thicker clothes in the closet, so she closed the window and walked to the closet.
side.
The cell phone on the coffee table started ringing again.
"I've made money, I've made money..." The ringtone sounded like a mockery, harsh and resounding in the living room, and through the door to the bedroom.
Is it Zhan Aoze calling? Yunduo frowned, took two steps forward, then turned back and continued to toss with her clothes.
Do you know that you are anxious? Why bother? It would be better to accompany your sister Sisi when you have time to find me. She is gentle and considerate, at least her mouth feels like it is coated with honey every day.
"Still not answering?"
Zhan Aoze's heart completely sank. He who was leaning against the car door no longer had the arrogance of the past, and his whole person seemed decadent.
Xu Xue shook her head helplessly and glared at him fiercely again: "Zhan Aoze, if I can't find Duoduo, you are the one who looks good!"
Zhan Aoze twitched the corner of his mouth. If women were as tough as Xu Xue, men in this world would really have no way to survive. But thinking about it, he didn't dare to talk back at this time. Thinking that Yun Duo might go home,
A glimmer of light finally shone in his gloomy eyes. He took his mobile phone and entered the number: "I'll call my parents and ask if Duoduo has gone home?"
"Let me do it. If Duoduo really comes home and sees your number, he might just unplug the phone line." Xu Xue sighed and dialed Yunduo's home phone. It was Yun Lingnan who answered the phone, with a hint of emotion in her voice.
Ci Ai: "Xu Xue, you haven't been here for a few days. Your aunt was just talking about Duoduo not being home for a few days. Xu Xue is also planning to let you two come home for dinner on weekends."
Xu Xue turned her cell phone on speakerphone and could hear the voice on the phone clearly. Zhan Aoze's originally bright eyes darkened again.
