Shi Yao said emotionally, "Qinqin, it's okay even if they treat you badly, I will take care of you."
He Qinqin's reporting data soared, and Shi Yao's brother added some personal opinions when editing the video.
At 6:30 p.m., he and his brother received payment from MU Hair Dryer, a competitor of Kashima Electric.
Now I can put on airs in front of Qinqin.
He Qinqin was already upset because Si Jin had asked her to delete the report, and when she heard Shi Yao's words, she wavered a bit.
She nodded, touched: "I've been a journalist for two years, and this is the first time someone has praised me as an excellent and righteous journalist."
"I did the right thing, and netizens are very supportive of me."
Si Jin has always been very obedient to her. Now that he's asking her to delete the news, it's probably because he sees that she's achieved something and is afraid that she'll become independent, no longer need the Si family, and never go back.
Thinking of this, He Qinqin felt somewhat disappointed in her brother.
When Shi Yao and He Qinqin appear together, their interactions as a couple gain them more fans, so they even allowed the production crew to film them while they were looking at houses after get off work.
At this moment, many viewers were deeply moved by He Qinqin's statement that Si Jin had asked them to delete the news, and by Shi Yao's firm stance in defending He Qinqin.
[Shi Yao is a model of male virtue, supporting his girlfriend's career and her independence!]
[So sweet! God sent me a boyfriend like this! Otherwise, I would never call you "Grandpa" again.]
Some rational netizens followed the gossip to Kashima Electric's Weibo account and read the court judgment issued by Kashima Electric.
At that moment, they realized something was wrong.
Why do I find Shi Yao's words strange? It sounds like he's trying to drive a wedge between He Qinqin and Si Jin?
[Yes, Si Jin is incredibly devoted to He Qinqin. Even when he's in a meeting, he'll answer his sister's calls and immediately arrange for his assistant to pick her up.]
[+1, I saw this in an anti-PUA (Pick-Up Artist) explanation before. If you want to control someone, you first need to isolate them, cut off their contact with family and friends, leaving them helpless. Then you can become their whole world.]
I've read the court's judgment; Jin Jiujiu defamed and insulted Chen Lie, and there's ample evidence. Si Jin is definitely worried that He Qinqin will be used as a pawn.
However, netizens who spoke out and voiced different opinions were quickly attacked.
[Wow, so many law and psychology PhDs upstairs? Stop showing off how smart you are.]
[Life's not going well, so you're looking for a sense of belonging here, huh?]
......
The internet is strange; many people only accept one voice. As soon as another voice appears, they want to eliminate dissent as if it were their own, without caring whether the other party is reasonable or not.
Over time, more and more people have become less vocal.
As He Qinqin and Shi Yao were chatting, the real estate agent arrived at the building where they had agreed to meet.
The apartment complex is not far from the NNT Building, about seven kilometers away, which is four subway stops away.
The real estate agent's eyes gleamed with shrewdness and cunning; he was clearly the type of top salesman.
"Hello handsome men and beautiful women, my name is Fang Du, you can just call me Xiao Fang."
Xiao Fang had been informed by Shi Yao beforehand that there would be a live broadcast, so he wasn't too nervous at the moment, but he was being more careful with his words.
They were taken to the first house they wanted to see.
Xiao Fang introduced the house, decorated in a modern Nordic style: "This is a two-bedroom, one-living room apartment, facing south, with plenty of sunlight."
"Most importantly, it's less than 500 meters from the subway station!"
Xiao Fang observed the two people's reactions while introducing the situation.
However, Xu Qin exclaimed in surprise, "It looks so small, but my bedroom is much bigger!"
"How many square meters is this house?"
Xiao Fang scratched his head: "79 square meters, two bedrooms and one living room, the bedroom is already quite large."
This is Haicheng, where land is incredibly valuable. Is 79 square meters not enough for two people? What kind of family is that?
Shi Yao asked, "How much is the rent?"
In front of the camera, Xiao Fang didn't dare to ask for too much: "4200 a month, one month's deposit and three months' rent in advance."
Shi Yao frowned, his lips pressed into a thin line. A decent two-bedroom apartment in Haicheng costs this much.
He Qinqin contacted the real estate agent through a roadside shop. After looking at the apartment's renovation, she thought it was alright and decided to look at this one first.
As for discussing the details, she didn't understand those things, so she left it to Shi Yao to schedule a time.
Upon hearing this, He Qinqin asked, "What does 'one month's deposit plus three months' rent in advance' mean?"
Shi Yao explained, "I have to pay three months' rent upfront, and then pay another month's rent of 4,200 yuan as a deposit."
He Qinqin's card has been suspended. After deducting her lateness, early departure, and truancy from her monthly salary, she earns just over 10,000 yuan.
Despite having no achievements, while other reporters have been promoted and received raises, her salary is about the same as that of a reporter who has just been promoted to a permanent position.
"That...that's equivalent to handing over 17,000 all at once?"
He Qinqin has always had everything done for her since she was a child, so she has no concept of money. "It's already 4200 yuan, and the rented house is so small?"
Shi Yao quickly pulled He Qinqin aside and told her to stop talking. He changed the subject and asked Xiao Fang, "How are the prices for water and electricity calculated?"
He Qinqin was speechless: "Water and electricity cost money too?"
Xiao Fang: "Uh, there are also property management fees, internet fees, and agency fees... half a month's rent as agency fees."
He Qinqin shook her head and said to Shi Yao, "Shi Yao, I still think our basement is better. It's much bigger than here, and there are no miscellaneous fees like property management fees."
Shi Yao nodded reluctantly without saying anything.
He knew that He Qinqin had only lived with him for a short time at the beginning, and that things were still new to him.
Moreover, my aunt and uncle have gone back to their hometown these days, so they are not living together, making the basement feel very empty.
