Chapter 16 I wanted to get along with you as an ordinary person
When I returned to work in the afternoon, my colleague asked, "Xiaoyue, did you rent a house?"
"Yeah!" Jiang Ningyue nodded. "Our work permit is quite useful! Not only did they reduce the rent from 7,500 to 3,000, but they also replaced my toilet, sink, and other items for me."
"What?"
The female colleague next to me was shocked and asked, "Why didn't I get this treatment when I rented it?"
"Huh?"
Jiang Ningyue blinked, looking confused. "I thought it was a benefit provided by our company."
"It's not company benefits, it's beauty benefits, right?"
A male colleague said with a smile, "That account manager is a man, right?"
"Hahaha……"
Everyone laughed, and Jiang Ningyue gave an awkward but polite smile.
Being good-looking is indeed an advantage. Even if Jiang Ningyue is randomly interviewed on the street, passers-by are willing to talk to her for a few more words.
Ignoring her colleagues, Jiang Ningyue sent the photos of the new house to Gu Meng.
Not long after, Gu Meng called. Jiang Ningyue ran to the reporter's lounge nearby to make a call. Gu Meng's clear voice and cheerful tone came out of the phone.
"Hey, how did you know I went back to Haining?"
"You're back?"
Jiang Ningyue was curious.
"Yes, but I can't find you these two days."
Gu Meng's tone was a little depressed, "I have to go to the teacher first and give her a gift."
"Oh. It's okay. Go ahead and do your thing."
Jiang Ningyue replied indifferently.
Gu Meng got the role this time because her teacher helped her, so Gu Meng naturally wanted to express her gratitude.
"I'll definitely come see you before the end of the month. By the way, are you moving into this new house now?"
"No."
Jiang Ningyue looked at the empty rental house and said, "There's nothing in this rental house. I can't move even if I want to."
"That's perfect." Gu Meng responded with a smile, "I'll come find you and we'll go furniture shopping."
"OK."
Jiang Ningyue smiled and nodded.

Jiang Ningyue's recent video on TikTok has brought Haizhou TV a few more active followers. As a result, the video garnered a lot of attention as soon as it was released this morning, with over 300,000 likes and nearly 20,000 comments in just one morning.
Comments:
[Shopkeeper: Look at your little bit of achievement (the corners of the merchant's mouth slightly raised in the picture)] 160,000+ likes
[Program crew: You guys keep extorting me, but I didn't expect your target was me!] 150,000+ likes
[Boss: It turns out that when you're speechless, you'll laugh for no apparent reason.]
[Boss: You're only asking for 150 for all this? With such a large project, I thought you wanted 15,000.]
I thought it was a lion's big mouth, but it turned out to be a louse's small mouth.
The boss's expression at the end was hilarious. For a split second, his eyes held a mixture of contempt, disbelief, and amusement.
[The boss's last smile could even be included in Beijing Film Academy's teaching materials.]

The woman received compensation, the store manager gained exposure, and the TV station gained ratings. A win-win for all.
[No one is paying attention to the reporter, so I'll take her away!]
[If you dare to touch her, I will break your legs! ]
[The last time there was a drunk driving case, it seemed like this reporter was also involved.]
[It’s much better than the one about drunk driving.]
[The drunk driving video was at night, and now it's daytime, can it be the same?]
When the colleagues at the mobile phone station saw the backend data, their mouths almost stretched to the back of their heads. This Jiang Ningyue is really a lucky star! So, the mobile phone station reported the matter again.
With the experience of the first time, Director Liu Zhen was not in a hurry to take credit, but planned to wait until Journalists' Day to give Minister Wen a surprise.
On the other hand, Jiang Ningyue was also preparing to move. She first told the landlady that she would no longer rent a house, and then started to go home to pack her things.
Jiang Ningyue stepped on a chair and dragged a huge suitcase down from the top of the wardrobe with great effort.
The suitcase landed heavily on the floor, stirring up a cloud of dust across the room.
Jiang Ningyue, standing on a chair, looked down at the suitcase and fell into deep thought.
The suitcase is entirely black, and it seems to have become shiny black due to the dirt.
Not only was the suitcase old, it was also in a state of disrepair. Not only was one of the four wheels missing, but the zipper was also broken.
Jiang Ningyue recalled carefully that this suitcase was given to her by her sister when she was in college.
If I didn't have my sister's suitcase, I would have just carried a urea woven bag to college as my parents wished.
After spending a lot of time, I finally moved down a piece of waste.
So Jiang Ningyue opened the mobile shopping app and ordered a large suitcase.
Then I started packing, and after a few rounds, I realized that besides the clothes I had just bought, I didn't have anything else to take. I could just buy new mattresses and quilts, there was no need to leave anything behind.
And this broken laptop, I must replace it with a new one when I get my salary.
At this moment, Jiang Ningyue was just looking forward to the day when her salary would be paid.
The next morning, on the way downstairs to work, Jiang Ningyue met Grandma Wang who was out buying groceries.
Grandma Wang looked at Jiang Ningyue with a smile and praised her, "Xiaoyue! I feel like you've become more energetic and spirited since you started working."
In Grandma Wang's memory, Jiang Ningyue was a child with personality problems. She wore large black-framed glasses every day, and her hair was messy and obscured, blocking her face. She would hide in the shadows with a gloomy look every day, and would not speak to people when she saw them.
Now he not only looks fresh and sunny, but also loves to talk.
"Thank you, grandma."
Jiang Ningyue responded with a smile. Just as she was about to leave, Grandma Wang said, "But Xiaoyue, you're a big reporter now. Can you tell us about this corridor light? It hasn't been fixed since you called last time."
"Hasn't it been fixed yet?"
Jiang Ningyue was shocked.
After traveling through time, Jiang Ningyue basically never returned home at night. She would go home before dark, or stay at her master's house after dark, so she had never paid attention to this issue.
"Yeah, the corridor is still dark at night."
“These guys…”
Jiang Ningyue was a little angry, then looked at Grandma Wang, "Grandma, I have something to do this morning. I'll go to the neighborhood committee to ask them this afternoon."
"Okay, stop arguing!" Grandma Wang nodded. "Talk it over nicely."
"knew."
Jiang Ningyue nodded.
At 2:30 in the afternoon, Jiang Ningyue arrived at the Xingfuli Neighborhood Committee, pushed open the door and walked in.
Jiang Ningyue walked straight to the staff.
"Hello, I'd like to ask why the corridor lights in Xingfuli Community haven't been repaired for so long?"
The staff were chatting at this time. When they saw Jiang Ningyue come in, they didn't turn around. One of the women glanced at Jiang Ningyue and said nonchalantly:
"Were you the one who called last time?"
"Yes." Jiang Ningyue pulled out a chair and sat down, looking directly at the staff. "Is it that difficult to fix a corridor light?"
The staff member was somewhat dissatisfied with Jiang Ningyue's questioning tone and said in a somewhat aggressive tone, "We also want to repair it! We would like to renovate the entire community, but our neighborhood committee has no money! If the street office won't approve it, there's nothing we can do. Please wait a little longer."
“Why didn’t the street approve it?”
Jiang Ningyue frowned, "Give me the street phone number."
The staff member tilted his head to look at the stairs on the side, and at this time a man and a woman came down the stairs.
"That man is Section Chief Li from the Street Construction Management Section. You can ask him."
Jiang Ningyue immediately stood up and walked over. "Are you Section Chief Li? The corridor lights in our Xingfuli residential complex have been broken for half a year. Did you know about this?"
Section Chief Li stopped in confusion and looked at Jiang Ningyue, "Who are you?"
"Ordinary residents." Jiang Ningyue replied.
"resident……"
Section Chief Li smiled and said, "Residents have to follow the procedures when they report problems."
"We've followed the procedures," Jiang Ningyue said calmly. "We've been reporting this to the neighborhood committee for several months, and they've also reported it."
"Has it been reported?"
Section Chief Li turned to look at the neighborhood committee director beside him.
The neighborhood committee director smiled and replied, "Yes, Li Ke, we reported it a long time ago. Many residents have reported the problem with the corridor lights in the community. When will you approve it for us?"
"I'm really not clear about this matter. Let me go back to the office to find out the situation." Section Chief Li said and wanted to leave.
Jiang Ningyue stepped forward to stop him. "It's just a corridor light. What's there to know about it? If it's broken, just fix it, and that's it."
Section Chief Li's expression had turned grim. He ignored Jiang Ningyue and looked at the neighborhood committee director. "Director Wang, please receive this resident. I have a meeting and need to leave in a hurry."
After saying that, Section Chief Li prepared to leave again.
Jiang Ningyue was really angry. It was such a simple question, why was it delayed again and again?
"Section Chief Li, if you leave like this, I won't come as a resident next time."
