"The room uses a fingerprint lock, and normally only the person living inside and I can open it."

Zhang Jingwan gave a brief introduction and then placed her thumb on the fingerprint scanner.

"drop!"

The door opened automatically.

This is the first time Bai Ye has ever seen a fingerprint lock!

I was a little curious, but I quickly suppressed it, after all, I came to see the house, not the lock.

Upon entering, you are greeted by a large living room with a large television in the distance from the sofa.

With her introduction, Bai Ye toured the house, visiting all the rooms except for the three other roommates' rooms, which were already locked.

Especially in my own room.

The room was simply furnished with a bed, a table, a bedside table, and a wardrobe for clothes.

Bai Ye was quite satisfied with the room. It was spacious, and with a few decorations, it would definitely be a comfortable room for a shut-in like him.

Then there's the kitchen. The kitchen is quite spacious and has all the necessary facilities. If I suddenly feel like cooking and don't want to eat the school food anymore, I can cook for myself.

The bathroom is also very large, with a bathtub big enough for one or two people to take a bath.

After the visit, Bai Ye was extremely satisfied.

It was practically his dream lover's room.

Bai Ye couldn't believe the room was so cheap.

Bai Ye asked cautiously, "Sister Wan, is the price of this room really one thousand a month?"

After all, this price is just too cheap. Although he can't afford the more expensive options, this price still feels a bit unrealistic.

"Yes, don't worry. I've been through this era myself, so I know you people are worried about being scammed."

"This apartment was specially reserved for students like you, and the rent is only a symbolic amount."

Zhang Jingwan said with a half-smile, "Besides, this whole building belongs to my sister. Do you think my sister needs your little bit of money?"

Bai Ye was taken aback.

That seems to be true. The rent from the entire building owners is so high that they're practically rolling in it. My little bit of money isn't even a fraction of what they make.

Thank you, rich lady! Thank you, landlady!

Bai Ye was deeply moved; there are still many good people in the world.

He's definitely moving into this room!

Even Jesus couldn't stop him!

As Bai Ye made up his mind, a small camera in the corner was pointed at him.

Inside a hotel.

On a spacious sofa, a woman lay languidly, propping her head up with one hand, her hair disheveled over her shoulder, looking at the laptop on the table with great interest.

The laptop was playing the footage captured by the webcam.

The woman reached out and zoomed in on Bai Ye, scrutinizing the satisfied smile on his lips.

His expression turned somewhat playful.

You'd better just obediently cook for me for the rest of your life!

The scene returns to Bai Ye.

Bai Ye looked at the contract on the living room table with some excitement.

Looking at the dense text, Bai Ye had a headache.

But I still have to force myself to finish watching it; after all, better safe than sorry.

Zhang Jingwan suddenly remembered what Xia Qingyue had told her and said, "Oh, by the way, you have to pay at least three months' rent for this room, and then a deposit of three thousand yuan. You have to stay for a full year, otherwise the deposit won't be refunded!"

Bai Ye expressed her understanding, after all, it was such a good value house at such a low price.

At this price, any shortcomings seem utterly insignificant.

Bai Ye readily agreed.

After all, he has to live in this house for at least a year.

So you'll get your deposit back sooner or later.

On the other side, Zhang Jingwan silently considered whether there were any loopholes in her words.

After all, in the eyes of a certain best friend who is hopelessly in love, nothing else matters as long as Bai Ye can move in; she'd even pay out of her own pocket.

But isn't that obvious enough?

We also need to have her fill the gaps. The rent can't be too cheap, and it can't be too expensive since he's a student and doesn't have the money. So, we settled on a price of 1,000 and a deposit of 3,000.

Giving someone 6,000 yuan at the start is quite reasonable, right?

First, observe his reaction. If it's too high, you can lower it further. Use words of understanding that college students don't have much money to reduce the deposit.

"OK!"

Seeing him nod, Zhang Jingwan breathed a sigh of relief, after all, a close friend on her phone had been sending her messages urging her to hurry up.

Bai Ye currently has enough money to pay three months' rent and deposit.

Fortunately, I've always been working, and I even took a summer job during the summer vacation.

Those unscrupulous bosses who hire summer workers are truly inhuman!

They pay 100 yuan a day, and there's a ton of work to do. They basically treat college students as cheap labor and exploit them like crazy.

He worked for forty or fifty days during the summer vacation and then ran away with the money.

My take-home pay is about 4600, plus the 4000 I had left over from before, and the 1000 living expenses I just received this month (as mentioned before, because I work part-time, I only need 1000 for living expenses with my parents). I haven't received my salary from the milk tea shop this month yet, so let's not count that.

So I still have 9600 yuan in hand, and after renting the place, I'll have 3000 yuan left.

This month's food and drink expenses totaled about 1400. If I don't buy anything else, I should be able to save at least 1000.

Bai Ye started doing the math.

As for the ten thousand yuan Xia Qingyue gave him, Bai Ye didn't even include it in his calculations.

After signing the contract and paying the rent, Bai Ye asked the questions that concerned her:

"Sister Wan, I'm very happy with this house. When can I move in?"

"We can move now. We'll go to that gate over there to register our fingerprints, and then we can pass through normally."

Zhang Jingwan smiled. She had successfully completed the task assigned by Xia Qingyue and was now making her way out. She would test this man's character properly next time.

"Sister Wan, are all my roommates not here?"

Bai Ye had been wondering for a while now; it was already evening, yet it seemed like only the two of them were in the room.

Logically speaking, if there were people inside, they would definitely come out to check the situation.

Zhang Jingwan had already devised a plan:

"Oh, you mean them? I think they went to participate in some kind of competition together, so they took leave to go to another school to compete. They haven't been here for the past few days."

Bai Ye nodded, but a little doubt remained in his heart. He felt that few people lived in the house.

But it could also be his imagination, so Bai Ye didn't dwell on it too much.

He plans to move over tomorrow; it's too late today.

After Zhang Jingwan completed the fingerprinting process, she hurriedly left because she was in a rush to catch her flight!

I had planned to leave long ago, but Xia Qingyue dragged me here to do this job of pretending to be a landlord. Fortunately, it didn't take up too much time, and I still made it to my flight.

Bai Ye waved goodbye to the landlady, feeling extremely grateful to this young and beautiful landlady.

After all, the price is just too good to pass up.
