He was going to be homeless soon, and Ling Miao's thoughts were all about the rent.

A week ago, the landlord informed the tenants that the rent would be increased next month and gave them a week to find an apartment. Ling Miao's other two roommates found houses with cheap rents and moved out. He and Ji Linxi couldn't find a suitable house, so they planned to continue renting. However, Ling Miao simply did not have enough money to pay the rent.

Ling Miao had not thought about asking Ji Linxi to borrow money, but Ji Linxi also had his own difficulties. The last time he asked Ji Linxi to borrow money to buy a mobile phone, he was out of necessity; the royalties would not arrive until the middle of the month, and the landlord had to collect the rent at the beginning of the month; as for asking his parents for help, Ling Miao couldn't do it even more.

Su Yuyang is Ling Miao's last hope. Now it seems that he should sleep on the street.

After clearing the dining table, Ling Miao left without saying hello to Su Yuyang. Su Yuyang came out of the room and saw the empty living room. For some reason, he suddenly felt guilty in his heart.

"Forget it, I'll go get the money tomorrow. After all, he has worked hard for so long." Thinking like this, Su Yuyang didn't think much about it.

The next day, Su Yuyang was awakened by the sound of "dong dong dong". After being awakened, he could not sleep no matter what. After checking the time, Su Yuyang complained and got up. He rubbed his sleepy eyes and went to the bathroom to wash up. When he came out of the bathroom and passed by the kitchen, a black shadow flashed in front of Su Yuyang's eyes. He was shocked and thought there was a thief in the house. Upon closer inspection, Ling Miao was actually in the kitchen!

"Ling seconds?" Su Yuyang shouted in surprise.

Ling Miao showed an apologetic smile and said with a smile: "You go and wash up first, breakfast will be ready in a while."

Su Yuyang walked to the living room and saw two old suitcases and a plastic storage box. He was sure that these things were not his.

Ling Miao came over with porridge. As soon as he sat down, Su Yuyang asked, "What's yours?"

"Um... um..." Ling Miao hesitated, not knowing how to speak. Su Yuyang sipped the porridge in small sips. It was obvious that he had no intention of asking, but he was prolonging the meal time.

Su Yuyang would dive into the study after breakfast, and then until lunch, he would not allow Ling Miao to disturb him during this time.

Ling Miao knew Su Yuyang's good intentions, and naturally he would not waste Su Yuyang's thoughts. The porridge in Su Yuyang's bowl was almost bottomed out, and Ling Miao finally spoke: "Brother Su, I was kicked out by the landlord."

"There doesn't seem to be a stipulation in the contract that I have to be responsible for your food and accommodation, right?" Su Yuyang blocked Ling Miao's attempt with one sentence. Ling Miao snorted and complained: "If you give me your salary, I don't have to..."

"You have the nerve to raise my salary?" Su Yuyang's original intention to pay Ling Miao's salary was shattered by Ling Miao's words. Now he wanted to settle the score with Ling Miao.

Su Yuyang was not a stingy person, but he admired Ling Miao's suppressed anger expression, so it was not a bad thing to stimulate Ling Miao occasionally.

Ling Miao was glared at by Su Yuyang and swallowed back everything he said.

After washing the dishes, Ling Miao came out of the kitchen and saw Su Yuyang still sitting in the living room.

Su Yuyang waved to Ling Miao and motioned for Ling Miao to come and sit down. Probably frightened by Su Yuyang's previous reaction, Ling Miao looked at Su Yuyang with hesitation. Such a coquettish look really didn't look like the Ling Miao Su Yuyang knew. Su Yuyang shouted: "What are you doing standing there stupidly? Come here."

Ling Mi walked towards Su Yuyang with small steps. Su Yuyang snorted coldly, and Ling Mi stumbled and fell on the sofa.

Su Yuyang breathed a sigh of relief. Ling Miao thought Su Yuyang was going to laugh at him, so he said first, "Do you know where there is a house for rent?"

Ling Miao was sure that Su Yuyang didn't know, but in order to avoid being ridiculed, he could only interrupt Su Yuyang.

Su Yuyang said coldly: "Go to an agency to find a house."

Ling Miao crawled forward a short distance, and his hand just reached Su Yuyang's arm. Su Yuyang glanced at Ling Miao. Ling Miao shivered and took back his hand. He said with a smile, "Then can I stay at your house?"

In fact, Ling Miao had planned it long ago. He wanted to live in Su Yuyang's house, so that he could save money on renting a house. If Su Yuyang wants to charge him rent... Anyway, his salary is paid by Su Yuyang, wouldn't it be enough to let Su Yuyang take part of it

However, when he told Ji Linxi the plan, Ji Linxi only said six words: "You're not awake yet, are you?"

Su Yuyang looked thoughtful, which in Ling Miao's eyes was equivalent to "I don't want to".

The sound of lamentation came, Su Yuyang looked over along the sound, and Ling Miao's disappointed and helpless eyes fell into his sight.

Ling Miao took a breath, as if he was enduring something. He looked at Su Yuyang, the sadness in his eyes made Su Yuyang couldn't bear to look directly at it.

"Brother Su, it's not a big deal if you don't take me in. After all, our relationship is just an employment relationship. However, I have been busy looking for a house recently, so I may not have time to cook for you, nor to edit or publish articles for you. In the short term, A week can be as long as half a month. During this period, I will ask you to order takeout and edit and publish the article yourself."

As soon as he finished speaking, Ling Miao jumped up from the sofa, dragged his suitcase and walked towards the door.
