When they woke up again, it was already afternoon. Both of them were very tired, so they went downstairs and had a big meal.
After eating for a while, Yang Qimu frowned, seemingly not quite enjoying it. He said, "I've never been able to eat Western food. I always feel it's expensive and doesn't fill me up. Chinese food is much better—it's cozy, comfortable, delicious, and filling."
Xu Qi nodded in agreement, and of course, she didn't forget to take a sip of red wine first. "That's right, I also think it's not good. I'm tired of it. Next time, let's go eat Chinese food. Whatever you want to eat, we'll go eat it."
Yang Qimu was very satisfied with Xu Qi's answer. He glanced outside and said, "Let's go look at houses in a bit. What kind do you want? One with a rooftop garden or a balcony? I just had my friend look around, and we should have some results soon."
Xu Qi was pleasantly surprised. She thought it would take a while. She quickly said, "Really? That's great! I hope we have a rooftop so we can watch the stars and the moon together."
"good!"
Having finished eating, Yang Qimu wiped his mouth and stood up. "I'm going to the restroom."
Xu Qi didn't see anything wrong with it, stood up and paid the bill. The meal cost 6888 yuan, which would have been a drop in the ocean for her before, but now...
She really doesn't have much money left, so it seems she'll have to be more careful with her spending.
When Yang Qimu came out, he walked over. "Why didn't you let me pay?"
"It's okay, we're family."
"Let's go pack our things and move to a new place. We need to check out today."
She simply couldn't afford the house price of 2888.
"good,"
Yang Qimu helped her pack and noticed that she had very few things. "How come you only have so little stuff?"
“I didn’t want anything else. Those were given to me by her, and I don’t need them. I can’t accept her slandering you, so I don’t want anything she gives me.”
Now she doesn't even call him "Mom" anymore, as if she wants to erase everything Mo Yan has given her over the years.
"Oh, that's alright. I'll give you everything you want from now on. Let's go."
Yang Qimu took her out and temporarily left all their belongings at the place he rented.
When Xu Qi returned to this place, she still felt a little out of place and instinctively felt disgusted by the environment.
When we reached the alley entrance, we saw Yang Qimu waving to someone.
Xu Qi followed and saw a man in a suit.
Yang Qimu quickly introduced him to Xu Qi, "This is my good brother. He works for a real estate agency. Please take us to see the house."
"Okay, hello sister-in-law, I'll take you there right away, it's not far from here."
The agent led them to a location halfway up the mountain, where there were many houses, essentially an urban village.
The city is built on a mountainside, and many of the houses are located on the mountain.
There is indeed a rooftop garden, but it's on the eighth floor. There's a small bungalow up there, and outside is the so-called garden, but it's empty now, there's nothing there.
"This apartment has a top floor, which costs 2,500 a month, and the seventh floor has a balcony, which costs 2,800."
This is a very old house, without stairs.
Yang Qi looked at Xu Qi gently, "What do you think?"
Actually, for a place like this in this city, the price is really cheap. And it's only on the eighth floor, with the rooftop where you can even grow vegetables.
But for Xu Qi, this was too high. This place didn't even have a large supermarket or commercial street. It would probably take three hours by car to get to the city center of Qi, and even the subway would take an hour and a half.
She's looking for a job, definitely not in a place like this.
"This place is too far from the city center. Is there anywhere closer?" Xu Qi finally voiced her thoughts.
"The budget you provided is simply not enough. Rent over there is easily six or seven thousand a month, and that's for a regular place, so..."
Xu Qi glanced at Yang Qimu, saw the difficulty in his eyes, and finally gritted her teeth and agreed, "Okay, this place will do."
At worst, her commute will just be longer in the future.
