Qi Linqing went back after looking at two houses that day.
Because the agent named Zhang San never understood what he meant, the houses he took to see were all luxury real estate in the downtown area of B, which cost tens of millions.
Little did they know that Qi Linqing's needs were very simple - renting a small house with a monthly rent of no more than three thousand would be enough.
The driver was also very puzzled when he heard it, why did Er Shao think about going out to rent a house... Could it be that he wanted to run away from home again
He panicked for a moment.
He can hide other things from the chairman and his wife, but absolutely not on this matter.
Half a year ago, Qi Linqing ran away from home once, causing the chairman and his wife to call the police and hire security guards to search the city. There was a lot of trouble, and even he was inevitably implicated.
The driver was afraid that Qi Linqing would really move out without saying a word.
Before, Mr. Yan stuffed him with money and asked him to report the details of Qi Linqing's daily life in detail, so that he could take good care of him.
He sent Qi Linqing home, and hurriedly called the old man secretly to tell the old man what happened.
Yan Xiang sighed, "I knew it."
Unless that kid is a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle, sooner or later he'll think about moving out.
But... Counting his age, Qi Linqing is almost an adult, right
He saw that the child seemed to be independent and self-reliant. Rather than living with an old man like himself, it would be better to buy some real estate for him.
"You said he looked at the pictures of the courtyard for a long time?" he asked.
Driver: "Yes, yes, yes."
It seems that this child likes courtyards very much. buy it
hang up the phone.
Yan Xiang calculated the property under his name and fell into deep thought.
…
Sunday, train station.
Ji Youguang is still the teacher leading the Z Provincial Ink Cup Competition this time.
Qi Linqing and Tang Gula, as two of the few contestants, were put on the Harmony train bound for City H under his supervision.
This is the first time Qi Linqing has seen such an extremely fast means of transportation in modern times.
He looked at the clean and tidy carriage calmly, followed Tanggula to find a seat and sat down.
Their seats turned out to be in a row
Tanggula was overjoyed. After driving for two hours, he had already imagined the scene where he and Qi Linqing had a lively chat...
Ji Youguang glanced at them, and said, "Oh Linqing, you got the wrong seat. The ticket I bought for you is 17B."
Tang Gula looked down and saw 16A displayed on the phone screen, and fell silent for a long time.
"..."
Qi Linqing stood up, took the black backpack and walked back a row.
He paused slightly when he saw the boy wearing earphones next to the seat, his brown-black pupils showed a little stunned:
"you... ?"
His deskmate is now his deskmate again.
It would be too much of a coincidence.
Zhong Chen raised his head and took off the headset.
The eyes of the two collided in mid-air, as if they were stabbed by something, and then moved away quickly.
Ji Youguang: "Oh, I forgot to mention just now, Mr. Zhong will also go to City B with you this time. He represents the middle school to participate in the provincial shooting competition."
Tanggula in the front row: "..."
Qi Linqing put down her bag and sat down beside the other party.
Zhong Chen put on the headset again, holding a cup of milk tea and sucking the pearls at the bottom.
After smoking, he asked casually, "Are you going to City H to participate in the traditional Chinese painting competition?"
Qi Linqing: "Yes."
Zhong Chen: "Come on, come on."
Qi Linqing noticed the conspicuous word "polysaccharide" on the milk tea cup, and his expression moved.
He remembered that the little apprentice was also addicted to sugar, and every time he ate the preserved fruit, it was still too sour, so he insisted on dipping it in some sugar.
Dissuasion came from the physical education teacher behind him: "I said Zhong, you are about to compete, so you should drink less sugar."
Zhong Chen lazily said: "Sugar will not affect my shooting speed."
P.E. teacher:"… "
Athletes often strictly control their dietary intake before competition. Especially in this kind of large-scale provincial competition, if he changed a student, he would definitely be furious on the spot.
But that was Zhong Chen. The prince of the Zhong family in Beijing.
Even people can easily take down the ten rings 70 meters away with just a few fingers.
Ji Youguang remembered that he had repeatedly bought milk tea for Qi Linqing but was rejected.
Really, people are more deadly than angry.
He couldn't help turning his head and criticizing: "Old Li, why are you so lenient? Why don't you even let the students drink a cup of milk tea?"
Old Li: "?"
a cup
That's a million cups.
Lao Li: "Mr. Zhong had already drank four cups when he was waiting for the train at the train station. Now he packed another cup."
Ji Youguang: "???" Excuse me.
The corners of his mouth twitched wildly.
The usual image of this kid in school is that he is a handsome and cool guy. Who would have thought that he secretly drank milk tea secretly
Tanggula was shocked. Ah this. . Even buffaloes dare not drink so vigorously.
Lao Li muttered: "I didn't want to be strict, but I was afraid that eating too much sugar would affect his performance in tomorrow's game."
"Do you like milk tea?" Qi Linqing asked casually.
Zhong Chen: "Yes."
Who doesn't like something good to drink.
He had never tasted such a delicious drink in ancient times.
"Would you like to open a milk tea shop in the future?" Ji Youguang half-jokingly said.
Of course, with the Zhong family's financial resources, if the other party is willing, it must be easy to buy several popular milk tea brands.
Zhong Chen thought for a moment and said, "It can be considered."
At that time, he didn't know that he had become a prophecy.
As the bullet train moves forward at high speed, the lush green forests and city buildings looming in between pass by.
A female voice came from the radio: "... The train has arrived at the terminal station, City H."
The match is the day after tomorrow, and they need to stay in City H for two nights.
Ji Youguang and Lao Li originally booked a three-star hotel in the city center, which was reimbursed by the school.
But to their surprise, they ran into Qi Linqing's grandfather to pick them up as soon as they left the gate of the station.
Qi Linqing himself was a little surprised, how did Mr. Yan know that he was coming to H City to participate in the competition
Yan Xiang let him go home to live, and kindly invited two male classmates around his grandson to live in Yan's house together.
Tanggula agreed with half push and half. It's almost time to meet the parents. Thinking about it, he is still a little excited.
Zhong Chen was helpless. Who called this old man... He was really enthusiastic.
Even the two teachers Ji Youguang and Lao Li were persuaded to cancel the hotel and went to Yan's house.
The Yan family also has a driver, but the car is very low-key, just a Toyota Wilfa.
But after seeing Yan's courtyard house, both Ji Youguang and Lao Li were stunned.
It can only be said that the world of local tyrants is beyond their imagination.
In recent years, as a new first-tier city with rapid development, City H's housing prices have already approached that of City B. Not to mention this kind of renovated old house built in a lakeside scenic area...you can't buy it with money!
The four of them were uniformly arranged into the guest room.
Of course, Yan's courtyard also looks old on the outside. The interior has been modernized and refurbished, top-notch jacuzzi, smart toilet... It's more comfortable to live in than a hotel.
Qi Linqing also went back to the house with his luggage.
During this period, Mr. Yan came to his room and handed over two real estate documents.
Qi Linqing couldn't understand, so he could only ask, "Is this...?"
Mr. Yan: "You don't want to move out? I bought you a courtyard house in City B. It's a super-large apartment. Are two sets enough?"
Qi Linqing: "?"
"I'm just kidding." Yan Xiang coughed, regained her seriousness, and said, "You're an adult now, you really should own some real estate."
Qi Linqing said seriously: "Thank you."
When he first came in, he saw the rice paper painting materials prepared on the desk in the house. The quality was quite high, and it was the kind that he would be reluctant to buy before.
Besides grandpa, the other party was the first person who treated him so well unconditionally.
Old Master Yan blushed, but he felt a little embarrassed when he saw it.
But my heart is more distressed.
On Qi Lele's adult birthday, Qi's parents also transferred a luxury house in City B and a limited-edition sports car to him.
But Qi Linqing didn't.
It was past his 18th birthday when he was brought back.
The child didn't know what he had gone through, and now he was acting too polite and well-mannered. As if separated by a layer of veil, it is unpredictable.
On the other side, Zhong Chen put down his luggage in the guest room and took out a change of clothes.
He was sweating sticky and uncomfortable on the train just now, and wanted to take a bath.
As a result, he turned on the shower, and there was no water for a long time.
Zhong Chen: "???"
He could only put his clothes back on and go out to ask others what was going on.
The servant of Yan's family was embarrassed to explain: "Student, until 7:30 this afternoon, the west district of H City will stop water supply due to water pipe maintenance."
Zhong Chen: "..."
Maid: "Or you can go to the young master's room to wash. The master bedroom on the third floor is connected to a backup water tower, so there is hot water supply at any time."
Zhong Chen: "All right."
He didn't think too much about it, he just borrowed the bathroom to take a shower.
Zhong Chen went back to his room to get his good things, went upstairs and knocked on Qi Linqing's bedroom door.
Soon, the door opened a crack.
Qi Linqing had already changed into gray home clothes, with black-rimmed eyes on the bridge of his nose. This is what he went to match two days ago. Because the original owner has slight myopia, his vision is a bit blurred when he draws at night.
"What's wrong?" he asked.
Zhong Chen looked at the young man's indifferent face without a well, and said: "Your house has no water. I heard that only the master bedroom on the third floor has water. Can I come to your place to take a bath?"
"Come in." Qi Linqing opened the door.
Zhong Chen: "Thank you."
He carried his clothes into the bathroom.
It was a bit damp inside, and the floor was still wet, so Qi Linqing probably just took a shower.
The bathroom occupies a large area, with a round bathtub on the right and a closed stand-up shower on the left.
Zhong Chen took off his clothes and put them on the shelf, and pushed open the glass door of the shower room to the left.
The hanging iron storage basket in the shower is full of bottles and cans.
Tsk.
It seems that his deskmate is quite delicate.
Zhong Chen can only recognize the shower gel shampoo, shampoo, conditioner, scrub, men's facial cleanser...
But these things are all unopened.
Zhong Chen felt strange belatedly—then what did Qi Linqing use to wash it just now
His gaze turned, and he landed on a small piece of inconspicuous soap in the storage basket.
It's creamy and moist, and the corners are markedly dented with use.
Zhong Chen: "..."
These days, there are still people who wash their bodies with soap instead of shower gel and shampoo?
Tang Gula knocked on Qi Linqing's door with nervousness.
When he first heard the servant say that the water was cut off, his first inner reaction was actually excitement.
In some mysterious pornographic manga he read when he was young and ignorant, the ambiguous stimulation of taking a bath in the bathroom can make people blush.
Tanggula knew that his chance had come.
This is the predestined fate between him and the other party.
Slap.
The door opened.
When he saw Qi Linqing, his breathing was slightly rapid, and he just raised a bright smile and wanted to speak.
"I… "
A familiar male voice suddenly came from the room: "Hey, I accidentally wiped off your soap, and it was washed into the sewer..."
Looking out of the corner of his eye, Tanggula froze in place as if struck by lightning.
His heart sank slowly like a stone dropped into the sea.
Qi Linqing turned around and asked, "Why don't you pick it up for me?"
Zhong Chen shrugged: "Sorry, I didn't have time."
Qi Linqing thought that the other party would live here tomorrow, and maybe he would come to take a bath.
"Next time if you drop it again, remember to pick it up in time." He said with a straight face.
And next time
Doesn't it mean that you are innocent? !
Tanggula's eyes instantly lost their brilliance.
Qi Linqing was not used to the modern toiletries, so he bought this little soap at the store with his own money.
He was willing to spend all his money on painting supplies, but he resolutely chose the latter between a 5 yuan rose soap and a half yuan small soap.
The concept of being able to save money in life has been deeply rooted in his soul after going through the years of poverty.
Zhong Chen: "..."
This person's stinginess is somewhat ambiguously similar to his master's thrift.
No! ! It must be his illusion.
Zhong Chen thought to himself, it is impossible for his master and father to be so stingy.
