Third floor.

The two stood in front of an iron door. The iron door was rusted and oxidized to the point of spots. Ji Huai made a harsh sound when he opened the door with the key.

After the destruction of time, the wooden door inside has been deformed and cracked, and the paint has almost fallen off, and the seams are repaired and worn out.

The sound insulation in the corridor was not good, and quarrels came from the opposite house.

"Don't go to school if you play games anymore, just stay at home to play games!"

"Bang!" The sound of the bowls and chopsticks falling to the ground was followed by a roar, "If you like it, don't eat it, don't eat it if you don't eat it. Get out of here!"

...

"Come in." Ji Huai led Ye Xi into the house.

When he closed the iron door, the door opposite opened, and the young man with yellow head cursed, slamming the door and going downstairs, and cursing while running, "I don't want to come back either!"

The couple on the other side quarreled again, accusing each other and disliked each other, and then scolding them, and finally seemed to have a big fight.

Ji Huai had already closed the wooden door, but he could not separate the sound.

Ye Xi was slightly confused in his heart, and looked around again.

The first time she saw such a building, the cement floor had cracks, the walls were painted dark, and each part had a sense of age. Even if the lights were turned on in the house, it was a little dim. There was no sofa in the living room, only wooden chairs, all of which were faded, leaving dense holes left by insects, and the refrigerator had huge noises. It was an outgoing model, and I was probably used for more than ten years.

The apartment is bad, the toilet and the kitchen are connected together, the corners of the kitchen are full of dirt, and there is also a table with no color. It should have not been used for a long time, with all kinds of debris piled up.

Such a place has brought great impact on her heart. She never knew that there are such places in today's society.

Old, broken, messy, messy...

These words can be used all here.

Ye Xi stood at a loss, even a little embarrassed. She didn't know what expression she was going to show, all this exceeded her cognitive level.

"Come here." Ji Huai's voice interrupted her thoughts.

Seeing him standing in front of the door, Ye Xi hurried over.

His room was not big, with a bed, a desk, and a variety of books in the other corner. There was no wardrobe, and his clothes were neatly stacked on the chairs on one side.

Apart from school uniforms, he didn't have many clothes, so few were pitifully rare.

The room has no air conditioning, and the wooden windows are broken. I should be afraid that it will not be closed on rainy days, so I tied them tightly with red ropes. In such a messy situation, his desk and bed are clean and tidy, which makes people feel much more comfortable than the living room and kitchen.

"I just finished it yesterday and haven't marked it yet. I'll mark it for you." Ji Huai said, taking the mineral water on one side, unscrewed it and handed it to her, and then said, "Just sit on my bed, wait for me for a while."

He sat down on the desk, took a pen, and started writing quickly.

"Take it slow." Ye Xi held the water and drank it, feeling embarrassed to sit down. He walked behind him and saw that he wrote very seriously, he was even more ashamed.

Some of the questions were written by him, while others were marked in which books he just bought, which showed that he had really worried about her for a long time.

After reading those books, she looked around her, and her heart was complicated.

These hundreds of dollars are nothing to her, but they are different to him. She cannot refuse to pay it back, and she is afraid that it will hurt his self-esteem. There are many houses in their family that can be allowed to live in, but she cannot take the initiative to speak out.

Ji Huai lives in such a bad situation, and she doesn't dislike it at all. She just feels sorry for her. She wants to help him, but she is afraid that he will have ideas, which will backfire.

"Okay." He gave her a few pieces of paper.

"Thank you." Ye Xi reached out to take it and suggested, "Would I invite you to dinner tomorrow? I think I'm thanking you."

She didn't bring any money today, so she could treat him to dinner every day in the future so that he would not lack nutrition and would treat him to delicious food every day.

Ji Huai smiled and nodded, "Well, let's go, I'll take you back."

When she went downstairs, it was too dark and she was afraid of falling. Ji Huai took the initiative to walk in front and lead her, half-joking, "When you just went upstairs, you shrank and didn't dare to go up. Are you worried that I would sell you?"

Ye Xi looked embarrassed, the hand he held was heartwarming and full of security.

She was instinctively afraid because she had never seen such a place.

Ji Huai said again, "You don't have to be so scared when you come to my house in the future."

Ye Xi didn't think too much, "Yeah."

She is not afraid of where he is, and he is so kind to her and considers her.

Ji Huai didn't explain much. He was going to sell the house, but the other party only paid 60,000 yuan, but this 60,000 yuan was enough. If it could be sold, he would move tomorrow.

The two walked out of the community, and he called online car-hailing on his mobile phone, and Ye Xi looked confused.

"I'll tell you what I'll tell you today's question at 10 o'clock in the evening." Ji Huai opened the car door for her and put the book she bought inside first.

He only knows the villa area where she lives, but he doesn't know the specific one. She just needs to give her a guide when she gets there.

Ye Xi was worried about how to go back without money, but he had already called her a car and spent his money. Her whole face was wrinkled together, and she felt very guilty.

"Remember to come and treat me to dinner tomorrow." He reminded.

"Okay." She nodded vigorously, and the guilt in her heart was much less. She would definitely come tomorrow and would pay back his money, treat him to dinner every day, and also find excuses to buy him something!

Saying Ye Xi away, Ji Huai walked in another direction and took a young couple to see the house.

The woman was dressed up brightly and beautifully, and her personality was strong and not likable. She said 60,000 yuan before, but when she saw that he was a little kid, she even lowered the price to 50,000 yuan.

Ji Huai had a cold face and stopped selling. The cowardly man came up again, and after all, he decided to buy it and could pay the deposit immediately.

The deposit is only a few thousand yuan, and now you can buy a small senior executive for a few million yuan? Sixty thousand yuan is already very cheap and the price is very low. I am afraid that the city will not be able to find a second one.

Ji Huai didn't say much. He had already found an agent and asked the other party to handle the remaining procedures and just spend some money.

It was not the couple who lived here, but the man's parents from the countryside. He also brought an older unmarried eldest son. The younger son bought a house and married a girl from the city. They wanted to come up to help the younger son cook and take care of his granddaughter, but the daughter-in-law didn't let them live together, so renting a house would cost a lot of money.

After discussing, the young couple simply bought a dilapidated old man and let them live in. In addition to the room where Ji Huai lived, there was also a small room with no lighting at the back, so the eldest son could live in it. He came to do casual work, the old lady went to cook and take care of her granddaughter, and the old man went to work as a security guard to make money to supplement the family income.

The couple didn't care about the environment of this house, what happened inside, it was cheap, could live in, and save money.

With only 60,000 yuan, the woman cursed when she went downstairs, poking the man's head to mock his parents for being unpromising and having no money to make a lot of money.

Ji Huai can't even care about himself now and is not qualified to sympathize with others. The first thing he did when he got the deposit was to go online to see the rented house.

He needs a place to live. The best apartment near the school is an apartment of about 35 square meters. The monthly rent is 2,400 yuan. The water and electricity are also calculated. The price is a bit expensive, but the decoration and environment are good. It is a high-end community, and you can move in with your luggage.

I saw one thing and called it with a phone call.

The "steward" of renting a house has already gotten off work and doesn't take a look at the house. He told him to talk about it tomorrow. He said directly, "If it's the same as the photos, I'll rent it for three years and I can sign a contract soon. I'll move there tomorrow."

He spoke very seriously.

The other party seemed to have been injected with chicken blood. He suppressed his excitement and asked where he was. He hurriedly rode a small electric donkey to pick him up. The longer the rent, the higher his commission would of course be. So what if he got off work? Just make money.

Ji Huai has changed his school uniform. He is tall and doesn't like to laugh. He looks steady and mature than his peers. After entering the small apartment, he scanned silently and checked the quality of the furniture.

The rented house "steward" followed him. Before he could get a detailed introduction, he heard him say, "I rented it."

The other party was still confused, is that what happened?

When renting a house online, the contract is electronic. Once the information is filled in, the deposit will be deposited and paid online, the contract will take effect and it will be very simple to handle.

Ji Huai was so happy. When the "steward" gave him the keys and door cards, he said, "The lights in this toilet are not very bright. I have reported for you. Someone will come to change a new one tomorrow. Before moving in tomorrow, the cleaning lady will come to help you clean it. I will take care of this area. If you have any problems in the future, you can just contact me."

"I know, thank you."

When he got home, Ji Huai started to pack up his things. He didn't have much to take away, but the books were quite heavy. He just asked the moving company to send all the furniture and didn't take them away.

In just one hour, he sorted out his own things and took a shower. It was ten o'clock and he called Ye Xi to video on time.

She had been waiting for him and didn't dare to go ahead, for fear of disturbing his study, so the video was picked up as soon as it rang.

Ji Huai didn't race against time to talk to her about the topic. He even chatted for a while. Seeing that she still had some unfinished biscuits on her hand, he even asked her if it was delicious.

"It's delicious, I'll bring it to you tomorrow." She nodded and put on the rest.

"Why do you like snacks so much?" he said with his lips pursed.

"I don't like to eat very much. I eat everything and am not picky about food." She quickly explained, and emphasized, "It's not good to eat too much snacks, which is harmful to health. I won't eat it in the future. You can't let me eat it."

If he felt that it would be miserable if he couldn't afford it, he wouldn't dare to be with her.

Ji Huai chuckled softly, but did not respond. He changed his mind, "Take out the question today."

After explaining that question, he arranged for her what she would do tomorrow, especially physics, which had to be supplemented from the basics, and no concept could be blurred.

Ye Xi also remembered it seriously and sweared, "I will definitely finish it!"

He spent so much time that she couldn't let him down.

Ye Xi, who hung up the call, was still thinking about where to invite Ji Huai to dinner tomorrow. He used his brain too much at night, and had no dreams all night and had a good sleep.

Ji Huai didn't go to bed so early. He looked at the dark ceiling, resting his head under his head, and was thinking about how to make money. There was a way, but he had to plan carefully.

The next day.

The moving company's car arrived early in the morning, so he called a small car, with only the driver. The fare was calculated based on the distance. The driver asked the things to move with him, and then the price was added to him.

There is an elevator in the community, which is convenient to move it up. In addition, the driver was given 80 yuan, and the other party had already moved all the things. The cleaning lady had also cleaned the room. The staff of the rental company came to change the lights, and also brought a brand new lock core to give him all the keys. If he was not at ease, he would find someone to change it himself.

Ji Huai was not worried about anything. The sheets and quilts before had faded a little. He went to the supermarket outside the community to buy a set, and after laying it out, he started to pack his own things.

Just after he packed up, Ye Xi called him.

The two made an appointment in a nearby square.
