Chapter 64 Different
The area outside the Fifth Ring Road sounded far away. In fact, the atmosphere of life was much richer than that in the urban area. After all, 80% of the social animals in City B lived here. This was why Jiang Yu wanted to rent a property here. The rent was relatively cheap and it was very convenient for living. As for transportation, she didn't go out very often anyway. Overall, it was perfect for a homebody like her.
But now it seemed that her assessment may not be accurate.
A strong atmosphere of life meant a large number of people. As soon as Qin Shiyu's car stopped at the gate of the community, many people looked over. When he got out of the car, the number of stares tripled. Because there were people who were not interested in cars. However, there were no people who weren’t interested in handsome men.
Even wearing a hat and mask, his superior figure leisurely leaned against the SUV. All the men, women, and children passing by looked at him.
Jiang Yu couldn't help wanting to stay away from him. So she quickly lowered her head and called the agency.
Due to this, a young man wearing a uniform and taking pictures behind the big tree hurriedly answered the phone. When he raised his eyes to meet hers, his eyes were full of surprise. It made Jiang Yu instantly feel that she shouldn't be here.
Qin Shiyu, on the other hand, remained calm and composed. He stood up straight and said, "I contacted you to look at the property."
The agency guy said quickly, "Okay, let's go this way."
As he walked, he looked back at Qin Shiyu's car. When he turned the corner and couldn't see the car, he started to pay attention to them. He endured and endured before finally blurting, "Are you Qin Shiyu and Jiang Yu?"
Qin Shiyu grinned, "No, it’s said that we look like them. They can't come here to look at properties."
The agent guy laughed, "But no one drives a SUV to look at properties."
Jiang Yu had the urge to cover her face. She felt that asking Qin Shiyu to accompany her to look at the properties was a big mistake.
He couldn't hold it back in the end and said happily, "Can we take a group photo? I really like you guys."
Qin Shiyu didn't deny it this time. He stood behind him with a very star-like attitude. Jiang Yu had no choice but to follow him. Even someone as popular as Qin Shiyu didn't refuse. Wouldn't it be strange if she refused?
After taking the photo and feeling the vague gazes from all directions, Jiang Yu had a premonition that she might not be able to find a suitable place here.
The agent hesitantly checked with her, "Are you looking at the properties here? The one-bedroom apartments here are about thirty or forty square meters and the environment is very average."
Having already arrived, Jiang Yu nodded, "Let's take a look first." Consider it as accumulating experience.
The agent asked again, "Are you looking for someone else?"
Qin Shiyu said, "En, help others find it."
This was very credible. The agent believed it. Probably out of consideration for both of them, he gave pertinent advice, "If the other party is a young girl, I actually don't recommend living here."
As he said that, he led them into the apartment building. Only then did Jiang Yu realize that there was a big difference between what she saw in the pictures and the actual situation.
This apartment building was self-built in the early years. Although they were all single rooms, there were twenty or thirty rooms on each floor like a hotel. There were many people in each corridor.
"Life here is quite convenient. The rent is relatively cheap and the residents are a mixed bag," the agent guy said matter-of-factly. "It's okay for couples and boys to live there. It's more troublesome for single girls."
As soon as he finished speaking, they heard a fierce and angry scolding from the girl upstairs, "Stealing clothes as well! Why don't you die of poverty?! Do you want to make a fortune from this?!"
"Stealing clothes like this isn’t that bad. The worst is being targeted by people with bad intentions." The agent said, "It doesn't happen often. If one does, it will be very unlucky."
Jiang Yu immediately decided not to rent here. Since they had already reached the door of the room, Jiang Yu still took a look at the property.
Afterward, she was disappointed. In fact, the layout and furniture were similar to those in the photos. How should she put it... It was a bit like online dating. The room without the filter looked old and gray. Completely different from the photos.
The agent suggested, "If you don't care about the price, you can go for a one-bedroom apartment in that community. It has better privacy."
But it was very limited. This was Jiang Yu's feeling when she saw the property in the community.
This time she learned from experience and entered the community with the agency guy without letting Qin Shiyu follow.
However, the property in the one-bedroom apartments that were for rent were very old. The doormen and management were decorations, while the neighbors were very close.
While Jiang Yu was looking at the property, many people were already "passing by".
Then she discovered that as Qin Shiyu's CP, she could still be affected even if he wasn't around.
Even when it was a small degree of popularity, it was enough for people to be curious. Some brave people have come up directly to say hello, "Pretty lady, do you want to live here? My name is Sun Wu. I live upstairs. If there’s anything you need help with moving in in the future, you can come to me. Our place is very good. They say that distant relatives aren’t as good as close neighbors. So renting this place will definitely not be a loss."
The girl from the opposite enthusiastically brought a fruit plate, "You can also come find me. I have lived here for more than a year. I understand everything."
Jiang Yu felt that if she lived here, she would probably figure it out.
She could almost imagine what it would be like to be forced to socialize after she really lived here. Once out, she said directly to the agent guy, "Sorry, it's not suitable. I'm sorry to bother you."
The agency guy watched the whole process and was quite understanding, "It's no problem. This is my job. Your life isn’t easy."
He couldn't help being curious, "Are you and Qin Shiyu real? He’s even accompanying you to find a place. Is he a rich second generation or a child from an ordinary family?"
Jiang Yu said quickly, "We met while recording a program. We happened to meet each other while working in a place today. He was giving me a ride since it’s on the way. I don't know about his family situation."
After saying that, she didn't care whether the other party believed it or not and ran away at once.
She let out a long sigh of relief when she returned to the car. Qin Shiyu looked at the increasing number of people around her, started the car, and left.
On the road, before Jiang Yu could say anything, Qin Shiyu apologized, "Sorry, I haven't looked at properties before. I didn't expect it to be like this."
In turn, Jiang Yu felt embarrassed, "You are kind enough to accompany me. Besides, this is my first time viewing a property. I didn't consider it carefully."
She sighed, "I didn't expect that recording a program would have such a big impact."
Qin Shiyu said, "Maybe it's because "All Rounder" is currently on the air. After the show is over, the impact will not be big after a while. Today's apartments and communities with low security are definitely not acceptable."
Jiang Yu nodded and searched the properties on the APP again. This time, she didn't look at the price. She mainly looked at the location and the safety of the community. A higher rent was better than a property with nothing on ordinary days. However, after looking at it for a long time, she still couldn't help but have a heartache. "The rent is too expensive. So it’s better to share the rent."
Qin Shiyu said, "The risk of sharing a property isn’t small. It will be very troublesome if the roommates aren’t suitable."
Jiang Yu had a headache. She had never worried about where to live in her previous life. Undergraduate and postgraduate students all lived in school dormitories. When she was studying for a PhD, she rented a property. However, a senior sister who got along with her simply introduced one to her. It was a perfect fit in every aspect. She didn't have any worries at all.
She had heard fellow seniors complain about their weird roommates. Some even moved out early because they couldn't stand them and would rather lose money on rent.
Thinking about it this way, the place where she lived now was ideal. The community environment was good and the overall quality of the people was higher. Anyway, she had lived there for more than a month and had nothing to worry about.
And there was the roommate... Qin Shiyu will become famous soon. He may not have time to come back and live there. How about she pay the rent to Qin Shiyu and continue to live there?
Just as Jiang Yu was pondering about it, her cell phone received a message from an unknown number: 【Elder Sister, I'll wait for you in front of your home. I won't leave until you come out. 】
This tone belonged to Jiang Xue.
Jiang Yu frowned. What did she mean? Found her place?
After the live broadcast on Saturday, Second Aunt Jiang and Jiang Xue kept calling her and sending messages. They had obviously begun to doubt the authenticity of her previous words. However, Jiang Yu had something to say, saying that she was very disappointed with their previous actions and had seen their true colors. Afterward, she directly implemented a train of block and delete.
Although this family was difficult to get rid of, it wasn’t difficult to deal with. In the final analysis, the original owner didn’t owe them anything. They have basked in the light by following the original owner and had even turned the original owner into a ghost in order to better absorb blood. So as long as Jiang Yu ignored them and prevented them from finding her, there was nothing they could do.
Now……
As if she was afraid that she wouldn't believe it, the other party sent another message: 【Wuyayuan, near the farmer market where Elder Brother Yu bought groceries last time. It's easy to find out. You live there, right? 】
Jiang Yu couldn't resist snorting. It was a pity that this girl didn't become a detective. However, she was moving out soon. Jiang Xue could crouch in wait there if she wanted to.
It turned out that her mind thought too simple. The residence wasn't discovered by Jiang Xue's own investigation, but by the paparazzi.
Qin Shiyu's car had already approached the community. Seeing a few strange faces hanging around the door of the community, Jiang Yu felt fortunate, "They are all here to crouch in wait for you, right? They don't care about me?"
Qin Shiyu glanced at her and drawled out, "You can try."
Jiang Yung leaned back in her chair as if she had no will for life, "The neighbors know you and some people have seen me..."
If they were really photographed, they would probably be on the hot search again: #Qin Shiyu Jiang Yu cohabitation# or something of.
Qin Shiyu imitated her and leaned back on the chair, "Haven’t rented a place yet. Can't go back home either."
Jiang Yu sat up again and said, "We should find it lucky that we came out early, otherwise it would be troublesome to be stuck at home."
Qin Shiyu watched her perk up all of a sudden and raised his eyebrows, "Then what were you going to do next?"
"Let's continue looking for a property. What else can we do?" Jiang Yu said, "If we can't go back, we have to stay in a hotel. What’s more, a hotel with good privacy. It costs thousands of yuans a day. With all this money, I don't believe that I can't find a suitable place!"
She clicked on the one she had spotted that met the conditions, "This community is good, and the other party is a girl. She want to find a girl."
She analyzed, "A two-bedroom shared apartment, the rent is five to six thousand per person. I can afford it. A girl who can afford such a high rent is most likely to have good abilities and high quality personality, right?"
Jiang Yu took a deep breath, "No matter what, let's go and take a look first. If it doesn't work, we can adjust our strategy."
Qin Shiyu still said nothing and directly turned on the navigation to go to the destination.
She hadn't realized that the upper limit of her rent had exceeded her budget by a lot. This showed that she had very high requirements for housing, especially for someone like her who liked to live alone. After meeting a suitable roommate like him, it should be difficult to make do.
It was difficult to go from luxury to frugality...
