Being stared at like this by Wu Yue, the boy's face became even redder than before, his eyes became a little evasive, and he didn't dare to look Wu Yue in the eye at all.
But he nodded anyway, "Take a look...for free of course!"
Su Nian really wanted to say, it’s useless to ask for money now!
But seeing that both of them looked serious, Su Nian swallowed the words and just asked the main question, "Where is your home?"
"It's right behind, not far away. I'll lead the way for you!"
There were no cars on the road, so Jing Mo turned the car around easily.
The boy was leading the way. Perhaps because he was in a hurry or for some other reason, after walking a few steps, he started running.
Two or three minutes later, the boy stopped at an intersection and pointed into the alley, "Your car may not be able to get in here."
Jing Mo's car is much wider than an ordinary car, and it can't fit into such a narrow alley.
Jing Mo parked the car on the side of the road. The three of them got out of the car and followed the boy inside.
It wasn't obvious when they were sitting in the car, but now that they were walking together, Su Nian realized that the boy was really thin.
He looks to be about sixteen or seventeen years old. He is quite tall, half a head taller than Su Nian, but he is too thin.
The clothes she was wearing didn't fit her well and the sleeves were a little too short, revealing her slender wrists.
Su Nian was staring at her when she felt Wu Yue approaching.
"His wrist is so thin, thinner than mine."
As she spoke, Wu Yue stretched out her wrist.
Wu Yue is very thin, but has some flesh to her body, and looks very healthy, which is completely different from the thinness of a teenager.
Su Nian turned his head to look at Wu Yue. After seeing Wu Yue's expression, he finally understood the benefits of having a teammate of the same sex.
Because we are of the same sex, sometimes we focus on the same things.
The only difference was that she only thought about it in her mind, while Wu Yue said it directly.
Knowing that Wu Yuebai had lived for decades and was actually very simple, and that there was no malice in her words, Su Nian simply raised his hand and touched her head, "Eat less, and you will lose weight in no time."
Wu Yue, "???"
Wu Yue was about to say something else when she saw Su Nian quickening his pace and walking to the front.
“Am I fat?”
Wu Yue muttered to herself and looked at her wrist.
Poke it with a finger and the skin is soft and elastic.
But she can hold it with one hand!
So this is definitely not fat, she is just healthier!

Su Nian and Jing Mo followed the young man for about three to five minutes before the young man stopped at the gate of a yard. "The gate is a bit low, be careful not to hit your head."
After the boy finished speaking, he tilted his head and walked into the yard.
The gate was not too low for Su Nian, so he could walk in directly.
However, if you stand on tiptoe, your head will hit the door beam.
The yard is not big, only about ten square meters, and there are some sundries piled in the corners and at the base of the walls.
However, it was foggy outside and the visibility was not good. If Su Nian hadn't been wearing glasses, he would not have noticed those things at all.
The yard is somewhat like a sanheyuan, that is, the direction facing the gate, as well as the left and right sides of the gate, are all rooms, and only the side facing the gate is a wall.
The young man led them to the house on the right side of the yard and said, "These two rooms are empty. They were rented out to people like you who have just arrived at the base.
But I will clean up the place after they leave, don't worry."
As the young man spoke, he opened the door and walked into the house, turning on the light in the house.
The bulb is not big, the wattage is not high, it is not very bright, and the light is not straight.
Without going into these details, just looking at the lighting, it is much better than candles or something like that.
There are quite a lot of furnishings in the room.
There is a double bed against the wall, with a bedside table and a stainless steel clothes rack at the foot of the bed.
There are also tables with missing corners and broken legs, supported by bricks, and some stainless steel wardrobes with lotus flowers printed on a white background.
The surface of the wardrobe was uneven, and it was obvious that it had been smashed and then barely smoothed out using various means.
But Su Nian knew that it was not easy to put together such a room of furniture under the current conditions.
"Look...is everything okay?"
After hearing what the boy said, Su Nian looked at him and asked, "How is the rent calculated?"
"Half a pound of food a day will do. Any food will do, but it's best if... it's edible.
There is a bathroom at home and a water tank in the kitchen, so you can use water as you like.”
After hearing what the young man said, Su Nian had only one question.
What kind of food cannot be eaten?
Could it be that someone has given us inedible food before?
Although he was a little confused, Su Nian did not forget the main thing, "Is the room next door the same as this one?"
"I can take you there to see it!"
After looking at them, I found that the two rooms were indeed the same.
Except for the wardrobe in another room, which was painted with plum blossoms, there was no other difference.
The house was clean and the boy looked nice. Although they didn't see any other members of their family, the three of them decided to stay there temporarily.
"I'm going back to the car to get my stuff. You guys just wait here."
Jing Mo said something and left, walking very quickly with big strides, and disappeared in a moment.
Wu Yue stood at the door of the room and looked at Su Nian, "Which room do you want to stay in?"
Su Nian casually pointed to the first one and said, "This is it!"
Wu Yue nodded in response, turned and went into the second room, and lay directly on the bed.
There was only a bamboo mat on the bed, and there was not a speck of dust on it. You could tell at a glance that it had just been wiped today.
The young man was also standing outside the door. When he saw Wu Yue lying on the bed, he quickly looked away. "The bedding is in the cupboard. It's clean."
"knew."
Wu Yue's voice came from the house, but the person didn't move at all.
Su Nian closed the door for Wu Yue and asked the boy, "Are you the only one at home?"
“No, my grandfather and brother are still here. They’ve gone to work and probably won’t be back until the evening.
Don't worry, my grandfather and my brother are very quiet and won't make too much noise to disturb your rest."
Su Nian had just asked casually, but after hearing the boy's explanation, he could only nod and say, "Okay."
The boy opened his mouth, but in the end, he said nothing.
Su Nian didn't know what to say either. Awkward conversation was not something she was good at.
Fortunately, at this time, Jing Mo came back with three mountaineering bags.
Su Nian stepped forward and took one, then pulled out a cloth bag containing almost a pound of sweet potato flour.
"Do you have a scale at home?" Su Nian looked at the boy.
The boy nodded, "Yes, I'll get it right away, wait for me."
After the boy finished speaking, he ran away, but came back after a while with a scale in one hand and a weight in the other.
