“Um… I have no problem with that.
“Mu Qianqian, do you welcome me as a co-tenant? I’m quite satisfied with this place; it’s very quiet.”
Su Yichen smiled as he stepped out of the bedroom. “Plus, I get to have such a beautiful and easygoing girl as my landlord.”
Mu Qianqian’s face turned red. She suddenly realized that Su Yichen had been saying how good the house was the whole time.
In contrast, she had been slow to express her stance.
‘Qianqian, you really are an idiot!’
“Welcome! Of course, you’re welcome~”
She hurriedly agreed. “I’ll go get the agreement.”
Soon, the two of them sat down again at the table in the living room.
It took Su Yichen only 10-plus seconds to confirm the contents of the agreement before he picked up a pen and signed his name.
“Mu Qianqian, I’m usually at school for classes, so I’ll generally only come back to stay at night.
“I shouldn’t disturb your lives too much. Give me your payment code.”
“Ah? That’s not a problem. I usually have to work, and Mu Xia has classes, too. It just happens to be the weekend today, so we’re home.”
“Alright. I can only pay for 3 months’ rent for now because that’s all the money I have. Do you need a deposit?” Su Yichen asked after scanning the QR code.
“No need for a deposit.”
Mu Qianqian, whose expression had been a bit vacant, suddenly pursed her lips into a curve. A faint smile appeared on her cheeks. “3 months is fine.
“I don’t mind.”
After hearing Su Yichen’s words, Mu Qianqian was indeed a bit happy…
More accurately, she was secretly delighted.
‘Does Su Yichen… have the same family background as me? Is it also not very good?’
Mu Qianqian stole a glance at Su Yichen. In fact, she had been looking at him ever since he entered the house.
She had glanced at him many times from the corner of her eye, yet no matter how much she looked, she never grew tired of it.
‘He really is so handsome, and his handwriting is beautiful.
‘Unlike mine; it’s all crooked. If I don’t look at it for a while… I won’t even recognize it myself.
‘He is a student at Qingyue University after all, and from the College of Liberal Arts. If he wrote a novel, he’d surely do a good job, right?’
The young girl’s head was filled with imagination because the boy sitting in front of her was someone she wouldn’t even dare to reach for in her dreams.
He was a gentle boy with a scholarly aura and exquisite looks.
Looking at the 1,800 yuan that had arrived and the three words, [Su Yichen], written on the agreement with an elegant and flowing style like an elf, Mu Qianqian unconsciously lowered her head.
She knew the gap between herself and Su Yichen.
Even after Su Yichen arrived, she had some… slightly naughty thoughts.
Few girls of this age don’t have romantic yearnings, especially girls from a background like Mu Qianqian’s.
But Mu Qianqian still knew that the gap between the two was like a natural chasm.
Even if her appearance was considered outstanding among girls, and she had the capital to pursue a different kind of life in a place like Guanghan Palace — she could live in a better house, send Mu Xia to a better school, and… take her to a better hospital for treatment.
It was just that because of certain things she believed in… she hadn’t done it.
So, knowing that Su Yichen’s financial situation was similar to hers, Mu Qianqian was secretly pleased and happy.
This meant the distance between them was a little closer, even if it was still out of reach.
‘Such a clean boy…’
Mu Qianqian’s nose twitched slightly as she took a deep breath of the scent coming from Su Yichen, becoming instantly mesmerized by it.
He was so pure, unlike anyone she had ever met.
He was like an untouchable god, an inviolable elf, a holy angel.
“Thank you.”
Hearing Mu Qianqian say she had no objection, Su Yichen also slowly exhaled a breath. A smile of relief curved his lips. “I was worried I’d be kicked out if I didn’t have enough money.
“Mu Qianqian, you’re already working, right?”
“Um, yes.”
“Then could you introduce me to a job?” Su Yichen’s eyes flickered slightly as he followed the conversation.
“Introduce a job…”
Mu Qianqian was about to say yes, but she suddenly remembered her workplace.
A nightclub.
A boy like Su Yichen… definitely wouldn’t like a girl who worked in a nightclub…
Her face suddenly turned pale, and then it became somewhat dim.
Perhaps he would be like her online friend Lizi, not minding her job or status.
But…
Did she really dare to gamble?
She had known Lizi for so long… and they were both girls.
But she had known Su Yichen for less than 1 week…
And he was a boy.
“My job isn’t suitable for you.”
Mu Qianqian didn’t dare to gamble. She squeezed out an unnatural smile. “The pay is bad, and the work is tiring.
“You’re a student at Qingyue University, and I didn’t even attend high school.
“But I can help you ask around. What kind of job do you want to do, Su Yichen?”
‘How can such a clean boy go work in a place like that…
‘He would be… stained.’
“I’m not picky.”
Seeing this, Su Yichen was almost certain of his previous guess about Mu Qianqian’s job, but he didn’t say anything and simply followed her lead. “I can do many jobs.
“As long as I can make money. As you can see, I’m quite poor.”
After speaking, Su Yichen smiled and shrugged.
“Um, I’ll help you.
“Then why did you move out? Isn’t the school dormitory good?” Mu Qianqian asked curiously.
She had seen photos of the dorms sent by Luo Yueli. Since Qingyue University was the best university in Jinyue City and even the entire country, there was no need to discuss the environment of the dorms.
“It’s not that the dorm isn’t good, I’m just not quite used to it,” Su Yichen said casually.
“I see…”
Mu Qianqian thought for a moment. “When will you move in?”
“Tonight. I’ll go back to the dorm in a bit to bring my things over.”
“Um… that, should I help you carry your things?”
“No need to be so polite; we’ll be roommates from now on.”
The young girl said this, but she didn’t finish the thoughts in her heart.
She really wanted to go and see Qingyue University — very, very much.
For Mu Qianqian, who had almost no experience of campus life, the time from high school to university — which was the most youthful and beautiful period in TV dramas, girls’ novels, and manga — was forever missing from her life and memory, and it was impossible to make up for it.
It was her eternal regret.
As for middle school…
That was in a small town in a remote area. Not only was she constantly bullied, but she also couldn’t even attend classes most of the time because she had to work for others to earn money.
Therefore, campus life was the piece completely missing from the girl’s youth.
[The school that was ordinary to him was a place of pilgrimage in her heart.]
