She then went to ask Ms. Ji, "What do you think..."
Ji Qingqian glanced at it twice and frowned: "It feels about the same size as my living room."
She was standing in the living room at that moment.
Ms. Shi quickly replied, "If the living room is about the same size, then the overall area should be about the same, right? That would be great, I'd get used to living here..."
Ji Qingqian said, "It's about the same size as my living room."
Lu Yibei: ...
Miss Shi: ...
What are you talking about?!
Ms. Shi could only give an awkward laugh and try to save face by saying, "It's small, but cozy..."
She was about to say a few more words when a phone call, hidden in the pocket of her pajamas, called her away.
"Excuse me, please wait a moment. You two can take another look... I need to take this call."
After apologizing, Ms. Shi walked out the door first.
Lu Yibei then wandered around the room for a while longer.
Although small, the sparrow has all the essential parts and even comes with a small balcony.
The furniture is all there, like the sofa, which is a bit old, but we can just buy some new sofa cushions and it will still work.
The only drawback is that the air conditioner and refrigerator are older models, and the energy efficiency rating is only level 3, so they consume a lot of electricity—but that's typical for rental apartments. Besides, they don't live here during the coldest or hottest times of the year.
Lu Yibei then asked Ji Qingqian, "How is it?"
He was quite satisfied, but if his girlfriend didn't like him, he wouldn't mind looking for someone else.
The good thing is that, although Ji Qingqian is indeed the one who makes the decisions between the two, she cares most about Lu Yibei's thoughts.
"Can I grow flowers on my balcony?"
"Can."
"But I'm too lazy to water it. Can you water it for me every day?"
"That's fine too."
"That's fine, let's rent this place."
Ji Qing pursed her lips and smiled slightly.
For the young heroine Ji, life is about accommodating each other a little, and in return, accommodating each other a little.
Besides, she was actually quite satisfied.
She casually strolled around the two-bedroom apartment with her hands behind her back.
Although there were two rooms and two beds, she didn't want to use the conventional method. Instead, she pointed to one room and said:
"You can write in this room, then go back to that room to sleep..."
"Um."
"But if you make a mistake, I'll send you back to this room to sleep alone."
Lu Yibei: "...Hmm."
That's very much like life.
Ji Qingqian gestured with her hands:
"Buy a TV and put it in the living room—a 100-inch one?"
"It doesn't need to be that big, this living room is small to begin with... 72... no, 50 inches should be about right, right?"
"It seems so."
After thinking for a moment, Ji Qingqian said, glancing back at the old sofa, "The sofa cushions need to be replaced with ones that have a pattern I like."
"Okay." Lu Yibei smiled.
"As for the kitchen... we'll need to buy a cutting board and a knife, and a pot... I'm thinking of adding an oven, should we be able to fit it?" Ji Qingqian asked.
“I can let it go. You can ask your senior from elementary school later; she’ll definitely know some cheap and good styles,” Lu Yibei said.
Ji Qingqian's eyes were filled with a sweet smile: "Okay~ then I'll cook from now on."
Lu Yibei, undeterred by the prospect of death, replied: "Absolutely no problem."
"And another thing, I want an ice maker so I can add ice to my drinks," Ji Qingqian suggested.
“Okay.” Lu Yibei smiled.
"The anti-slip mat at the bathroom door also needs to be replaced," Ji Qingqian said.
I think so too.
"Buy the design I like!"
"Then I entrust you with an important task and put you in full charge!"
"Yes, sir!"
Ji Qingqian initially just thought the house was nice.
But the more they talked, the happier they became, and a faint light appeared in their eyes, as if they were starting to set up their future little haven.
She started counting on her fingers, meticulously calculating every inch of usable space and every little corner.
Even the flowers to be planted on the balcony later, and the color of each clothes hanger.
The more she thought about it, the more she liked it.
Ji Qingqian subconsciously looked at the boy beside her. The afternoon sun shone on the boy's profile, giving it a faint golden hue.
She suddenly hugged the boy's arm tightly, her expression joyful and slightly coquettish:
"Ah Bei~ I like it here, let's stay here~"
"Okay, then we'll sign the contract after Miss Shi finishes her call, and then we'll move the luggage from the apartment over."
"Okay~" Ji Qingqian's eyes curved into a smile, looking endearing and charming.
Ms. Shi's phone call took an unexpectedly long time.
After sitting in the living room for a while, Lu Yibei and Ji Qingqian went out to take a look.
Ms. Shi was still on the phone in the stairwell:
"...I still have work to do."
"A tenant has arrived."
"Renting out a property is a business too!"
"Really... I don't have time. Stop trying to set me up on blind dates!"
"Oh dear, Mom—"
Miss Shi seemed to sense the two young men behind her.
Looking back.
Realizing they had overheard something they shouldn't have, the young couple quickly retreated back into their room.
Miss Shi: "...I'm hanging up."
