Chapter 24 Renting a House
In the next four days, Qi Min visited more than a dozen houses on the rental agency website. After clearly realizing how high the rental prices in Beijing were and how small the area of the houses in the urban area was that did not match them, she finally found a house that she thought was okay after constant compromise.
This house is also in an old community, with a low-rise tower, but the interior of the house is indeed well-decorated, and the location is very convenient. The area is a bit small, but it actually has two bedrooms and a small corridor for children to run around. Qi Min took photos and sent them to Anton. Anton also thought it was okay, and the rent was equivalent to about one thousand US dollars per month, which made him think it was normal for someone who didn't understand domestic prices.
So Qi Min decided to rent this house. The homeowners are also a couple who are about the same age as Qi Min's parents. They also lived in this small house when they were young, but they moved away from the city after retirement. They were happy to rent to a family like Qi Min with children, so the agreement was reached quickly.
The house itself is very clean and ready for move-in. After Qi Min bought pillows, quilts and other things, he moved into this house.
Yan Zhaolan came over to take a look and thought the house was indeed nice. However, she had other questions: "Why are you alone here? Where is your boyfriend?"
"Uh...he hasn't come yet." Qi Min replied.
"You've already settled in, why hasn't he come yet? And he didn't even come when you invited guests..." Yan Zhaolan couldn't help but wonder, "What, what happened?"
"It's nothing." Qi Min replied awkwardly, thinking that Anton's visa application had not yet been completed, and it would take time for him to resign and vacate the rented house.
"Is everything really okay?" Yan Zhaolan raised his eyebrows and looked at her and said, "It's okay. If you have any questions, you can come to me at any time."
Qi Min couldn't help but be moved after hearing what she said, and immediately said: "That's for sure, which one of us will follow the other."
——
After moving out from Yan Zhaolan's house and moving into his own rented house, Qi Min lived closer to the school. But because she doesn't have any wet experiments in the laboratory now and doesn't need to stay in the laboratory all day, her time in the laboratory is actually slightly shorter than before.
In the past, Qi Min would eat dinner with Wang Xin and Chen Linyou every night, and would stay alone until they finished their experiments and left the laboratory with them. Now she doesn't need to take the subway, but can go home by riding a bicycle. She doesn't have to worry about the evening rush hour on the subway, but is more concerned about the safety of riding a bicycle before it's completely dark, so she left shortly after dinner. .
Wang Xin expressed dissatisfaction with this. Before, they could play games for a while after dinner, but now that Qi Min had left early, it was hard for them and Ke Li to form a team. Ke Li is a nerd who prefers to play card games with two-dimensional girls. He is on the same level as Wang Xin in playing chicken and can't lead them at all. As a junior doctoral student, Chen Linyou was not in a good position to direct senior students or seniors in other laboratories.
So Wang Xin inevitably suggested asking Hua Ruiming, who they had played with before, to take them.
Of course Wang Xin knew that Senior Brother Hua was interested in Qi Min, and Qi Min suddenly stopped playing with him some time ago, so she could guess that something unpleasant had happened. To be fair, although Hua Ruiming is a bit straight, he is pretty good to the people in their laboratory, so Wang Xin supports him in her heart.
However, Wang Xin originally felt that whether it could happen or not was a matter between Qi Min and Hua Ruiming, and no one else could interfere. But now the partner has sent another boy, Ke Li, and Qi Min is chatting and laughing with Ke Li, which makes Wang Xin feel that this is a prelude to "first come first, first served". What made Wang Xin dissatisfied was that the new senior brother Ke actually asked her senior sister to change the code for him. It was really unbelievable. In comparison, senior brother Hua was infinitely better than him.
In order to guide her senior sister to make the "right choice", Wang Xin felt that she still had to find a way to make Hua Ruiming reappear in her life and increase her presence.
After dinner this time, before Qi Min left, Wang Xin and Chen Linyou opened the chicken game and deliberately invited Hua Ruiming.
Qi Min was packing his things in his seat and didn't pay much attention when he heard Wang Xin and Chen Linyou eating chicken over there. The two of them were just playing for fun, but the experiment was still done. Qi Min didn't like encroaching on her men's rest time, not to mention that she took them to play games together.
But as soon as she walked to the door of the laboratory with her bag on her back, she thought that Teacher Lin's laboratory downstairs wanted to transfer the extra ice machine to her. Now someone needs to lend a hand and move that big guy up.
Originally, it was more appropriate to call him Chen Linyou, but Qi Min saw that he was playing games and asked Ke Yue: "By the way, Ke Yue, are you okay now?"
"It's okay, what's wrong?" Ke Li raised his head and asked.
"Let's go down and move the ice machine up." Qi Min said, and added, "There is no need to move it manually. There is an elevator and a trolley. It just takes two people to lift it onto the trolley."
"That's no problem." Ke Yue said immediately, "Let's go."
Their conversation was also transmitted to Hua Ruiming from Wang Xin and Chen Linyou's microphones.
While they were hiding in a building, Hua Ruiming asked, "Hey, the one who just spoke is the new guy from your laboratory?"
"Oh, Senior Brother Ke is from the collaborator's laboratory." Chen Linyou replied without much thought.
Wang Xin pretended to be casual and said, "It is said that he is here specifically to help senior sister do animal experiments. It seems that he is quite familiar with senior sister."
These words are obviously useful to Hua Ruiming. The reason why Qi Min rejected him before was that he couldn't break up with his ex-boyfriend, but now he is getting closer to the new doctoral student, and it can't be justified no matter what.
He asked again: "What's the trick? Isn't he going to eat chicken with you?"
"Oh, senior brother Ke doesn't play this kind of game very much." Wang Xin said, "He and his senior sister have gone downstairs to move the ice machine. And you see, doesn't my senior sister not play much recently?"
In fact, Qi Min just doesn't play much after dinner, but he still plays addictively during the break after lunch. It's just that the lunch hours of the two laboratories are different, and Qi Min will not happen to be online when Hua Ruiming comes online.
"Actually, senior sister is still -" Chen Linyou was about to correct her statement, but Wang Xin glared at her, so she had to change her words somewhat inexplicably, "It's just for fun occasionally."
Sure enough, after learning the news, Hua Ruiming lowered his voice and asked them: "What have your senior sisters been doing recently? It feels like we haven't seen each other for a long time."
This is the question that makes Wang Xin satisfied: "Actually, senior sister went to the United States for a meeting two days ago. She came back with senior brother Ke only in the past few days. But recently, senior sister always leaves the laboratory after six o'clock. Yeah, I guess there’s something else going on.”
My boss is on a business trip, so I am staying in the dormitory instead of going to the laboratory...
I had nothing to do in the dormitory, so I accidentally saw "120 Days of Sodom" when I opened it...and then "A Serbian Movie"...and then "Anatomy of Hell"...
I just want to say that the people who answered this kind of question on the forum are really NB. (BTW, the anatomy of hell is actually very light, but is the part about the big iron stick stabbing the director of the hospital serious?)
