Lu Xiaoqiao entered the house and found that both roommates were not at home.
As soon as I put down my luggage, I heard the phone in my bag ringing. I fumbled for the phone in the bag and saw my aunt's caller ID flashing on the screen.
Slide open the answering screen: "Auntie!"
"Xiao Qiao! How come you moved out without saying a word? I said I would ask Liu Ye to send you back tomorrow."
"Didn't Zheng Yan tell you?" She cried so bitterly that Lu Xiaoqiao thought she would exaggerate and accuse her.
"No, when I came back, the child said he was tired and went to bed early."
It seems that she is not stupid. She had a fight with her in-laws before she even married. It would be embarrassing to tell others about it. I guess she also wanted to save face. Lu Xiaoqiao didn't want her aunt to worry about her: "My friend happened to drive by there and knew I was moving. He thought I had a lot of stuff so he helped me move some first. Since they came, I moved in."
My aunt was a little skeptical: "Which of your friends still has a car, male or female?"
"Lin Lin's brother, please don't make random guesses, he has a girlfriend." The aunt knew Lin Lin, but didn't know her real family background. Because of Lin Lin's low-key attitude, she thought she was just an ordinary clerk in her company.
After explaining for a long time, my aunt finally stopped questioning me: "You took the dog away too, right? Hey, this is all my fault."
Originally, I saw that the old lady liked the puppy next door, so I thought of buying one to help her relieve her boredom. But who would have thought that she was allergic to dog hair.
When he found out that the old lady was allergic to dog hair, my uncle-in-law got really mad at my aunt and threatened to throw the puppy out. But Lu Xiaoqiao, who was about to move out, asked for the puppy and said, "Well, I'll bring it with me."
"That's good. Just be careful when you live outside by yourself. Come to my place for dinner every Monday like your sister Na." He gave her a bunch of instructions before hanging up the phone.
After Lu Xiaoqiao finished the call, she carried the pet cage at the door to the middle of the living room and carefully checked the condition of Tuanzi in the cage. The little guy was very well behaved and had not made a sound in the car just now. Seeing that he was in good spirits, she poured him some water and went to pack her luggage with peace of mind.
There are three rooms in the house. The master bedroom with an independent bathroom is for Zhao Jia, the oldest of the three. Lu Xiaoqiao and another roommate live in the guest bedroom. The monthly rent is NT$3,400, which is divided equally among the three of them. Zhao Jiafei insisted on taking the extra NT$100, saying that she should get more since she lives in the master bedroom, and NT$100 is a bit too little.
Lu Xiaoqiao dragged her luggage into her room. There was a window in her room. Standing by the window, she could see the street outside the community. When it was quiet, she could even hear the voice announcer of the payment code of the vegetable vendor across the street downstairs. Although it was a bit noisy because it was close to the street, she liked this kind of fireworks.
Old residential areas also have their advantages. The surrounding daily supporting facilities are very complete and you can buy everything. There is also a night market not far from the residential area, which is even more lively.
When they were almost done packing, the two roommates came back. When they heard the door open, Lu Xiaoqiao walked out of the room, startling the two people who had just entered. Zhao Jia, who was walking in front, said, "Damn, Xiaoqiao, you are giving me a surprise."
"I sent you a WeChat message, but you didn't see it? How about it, are you surprised?"
Qin Momo, who was walking behind, poked her head out, her face full of joy and excitement: "Xiao Qiao, did you move in early?"
…
The three of them came to the living room. Zhao Jia and Qin Momo sat on the sofa holding dumplings, looking at Lu Xiaoqiao who was sitting on a small stool opposite the coffee table. She was eating the leftover cold noodles they had brought back from the night market while recounting what happened in the evening.
"She doesn't dare to tell your aunt, so she might whisper in Liu Ye's ear at night and distort the facts." Zhao Jia and Lu Xiaoqiao are also colleagues and they know something about Zheng Yan's character.
Lu Xiaoqiao tied up the box of cold noodles with the plastic bag it had just been packed in and threw it into the trash can next to the coffee table: "She used to be like a blower. If she suddenly stopped blowing because I beat her, I would look down on her."
"What does Liu Ye like about her? She's just average looking and her personality isn't very likable. Is it because her dad is the vice president of a bank branch?"
"I don't know what Liu Ye is thinking, but my aunt's mother-in-law must be thinking about this."
Zhao Jia nodded and said, "It's hard to say. Sometimes men are more serious than women when it comes to reality."
At almost ten o'clock, the three of them chatted for a few more sentences and then went to wash up and go to bed.
…
The next day.
When Lu Xiaoqiao and Zhao Jia got up, Qin Momo got up early to go to work because her company was far from where she lived.
The two of them bought a pancake downstairs and then hurried to the subway station by bus. The three of them had agreed when they rented the house that they would buy breakfast from Monday to Friday and cook their own dinners and all day on weekends.
On the first day of work after moving into my new home, I got up half an hour later than when I lived at my aunt's house, but still arrived ten minutes earlier.
As soon as I arrived at the company, I saw Sister Sun from the design department being surrounded by several colleagues chatting.
"I'm so jealous! Jiang Heng Group's treatment is the best in Hangzhou!"
"I heard that this time the team building was held at their company's five-star resort, which even has a helipad and a golf course."
"Otherwise, how can he be the richest man? Hey! Sister Sun, your brother was able to join the Jiangheng Group and is now a deputy manager. He belongs to the leadership class. Does he often meet with their president?"
Seeing that everyone was looking at her, Sister Sun lifted her hair, and it was hard to tell whether she was proud or humble: "It's not that easy to meet the president. You can only see him at the annual meeting. Although my brother is the deputy manager, he doesn't interact with the president at work. After all, there are several layers of leaders above him."
"I heard that Jiang Heng's president is very handsome and is still single."
At this point, a young girl from the Finance Department raised her hand and said, "I know, I know. When I was in college, he came to give a speech at our school. He was really handsome in person, tall and handsome."
"I really want to join Jiang Heng, but unfortunately with my IQ, I can only work as a gatekeeper. I'm so jealous of those who work at Jiang Heng."
Who wouldn't be jealous of the employees who can join Jiangheng Group? Looking around, no company in the whole city of Hangzhou can compare with their salary and benefits.
As a leader, Zhou Qizhen has far surpassed the value created by his father during his tenure with his keen insight and decisive decision-making in recent years.
Zhao Jia's workstation was not here. Lu Xiaoqiao walked to her own workstation and took out her mobile phone and charger from her bag. She had just arrived at her new home yesterday and didn't know that she had to press a button on the power strip to power it on. At this moment, her mobile phone only had 5% battery left.
As soon as I plugged the phone into the socket, Lin Lin ran in with her 7-centimeter-high high heels.
"Ah! I'm almost late, damn Monday!"
Lu Xiaoqiao glanced at the high heels on Lin Lin's feet and said, "Don't wear such high heels next time. You are not short."
"But it makes your legs look longer." Lin Lin didn't continue the topic, but glanced at Lu Xiaoqiao's hands and forearms: "Oh my God! You said it wasn't serious, but there's bleeding in some places."
Then he took out a tube of ointment from his backpack and said, "Here, scar removal ointment. I brought it back from abroad last time. It's very useful."
"Not really! I applied aloe gel. I found that my body has been upgraded since I met you."
"Oh no! No, what if it leaves a scar?"
Knowing her friend's good intentions, Lu Xiaoqiao took the ointment with a smile.
Seeing that she accepted it, Lin Lin finally felt relieved. She looked up at the people in front who were still gossiping and asked, "What are they talking about?"
"We're talking about your uncle."
