It's true after all, after all, they are alone and widowed in the same room.

But don't think about it too much, there is no eclectic plot at all, only Su Huai's lamentation all night.

It's not like he hasn't been through worse.

For example, when I was still moving bricks at the construction site, I would stay up all night without any rest at all when I was in a hurry, or when I was working as a utility and had to shoot a night scene, there was no air-conditioning in such a cold winter. There have also been cases of clutching a cotton coat in the corridor.

At that time, I was obviously very tired and wanted to sleep, but I didn’t dare to really fall asleep. I was afraid that I would miss my appearance because of this. Not only would I not get paid, but I would also be reprimanded by the field manager. In this way, the next time I pick up a job There is no more for you.

No matter how difficult the conditions are, just grit your teeth and get through it. After all, life is not easy.

But what happened last night was a disaster that Su Huai didn't want to recall.I thought it would be the same as when I brought Artoria back. She would sleep on the bed, sleep on the floor by herself, or just lie on the table and cat all night.

But what I didn't expect was that at night, Mo Qi had a habit of having to hold something in order to fall asleep.

How about it, at first glance, does it sound like a good fortune, a feeling of making money?

But you only need to count the many bruises and scratches on Su Huai's neck and body after waking up during the day, as well as the thick dark circles under his eyes that are almost irreversible, to know how he spent the sleepless night last night. night.

It felt like walking through the gate of hell. Obviously this girl looked very thin and weak, but her strangled strength made her feel like she was about to suffocate several times.Only Su Huai used his own arm as a lever to unlock the joint skills imposed by the opponent like in a fighting competition, and survived anyway.

So almost at dawn the next day, Su Huai couldn't wait to solve this life-and-death problem.

Of course he continued to enlighten the other party.

For example, ask the other party why he had to choose to run away from home because of what happened? (楪祭 is reading manga and eating cakes) What about my job as a singer? (楪琪 ran to the door to pick up the family bucket of fried chicken delivered by the takeaway) and told her how dangerous it would be to move into a man's house without warning. (She was playing the game leaning on the pillow, thinking that the room itself had a projection screen sent by Hu Su, so she didn't buy a new one, but she bought the game console herself, as well as earphones)

After trying so hard to persuade him to no avail, Su Huai had no choice but to give up.

He still has no way to forcefully drive the other party out, and the actual mountain doesn't seem to be necessary. Don't forget, Qi Qi has bound a consumption card to his mobile phone before, and the deposit in the card is considered to be a bustling area. It is more than enough to buy a spacious apartment, let alone rent such a room that does not even have a bathroom and toilet.

So Su Huai discussed with her: "Miss Qiqi, with so much money on your card, wouldn't it be better to just buy a house or rent an apartment that is newer and more spacious than mine?"

And like that kind of hotel-style apartment, there will be someone to clean the room and wash the clothes for you. For example, Arturia lives in the apartment with the highest land price and the best land in Qiunan.

"..."

For a while, Mo Qi's eyes remained on the projection screen on the wall, and he continued to press the handle. A word [Danger] appeared on the head of the protagonist in the game, and the enemy Chao Qi manipulated the protagonist to attack like a storm. He came over, but she easily dodged it.

After resolving the crisis, Maki pressed the keys in a super-fast manner, made a very complicated command, and then used a set of gorgeous combos to eliminate the seemingly strong enemy.Then he answered Su Huai's question just now with a flat voice that was too slow to know how many beats: "No, no matter whether you are buying a house or renting a house, you must bring your ID card."

It's not like she hasn't thought about these issues.

On the contrary, it looks a bit like an action after careful consideration... Is it Su Huai's illusion?

"And the other party will also think that the first thing I need to solve is the accommodation problem. They must be investigating based on this point now. If I choose those apartments that are connected to the public security network, I will be caught in a trap."

Of course, there is one more thing that Miki didn't say.

Although the privacy of private rental housing is better, most of them will rely on intermediary companies at this time, and they will inevitably leave messages on the Internet. Moreover, it is a particularly troublesome thing to look at and choose a house. Don't think about spending that effort.

In short, when this plan was proposed by Su Huai, it was already NG, and the remaining option was to live here while Su Huai moved out.

In other words, give up the place where you live to the other party, and then be kicked out?

Wait, that doesn't sound bad, does it?

Compared to living in such a house that takes up the floor even when you stretch your legs, Su Huai can definitely use the money Mu Qi gave him to rent a better house. Anyway, the other party also said that the money in it can be used by Su. Bad feel free to use.

Uh...

Although for a moment he felt that this plan was feasible, and he still had the urge to implement it, but Su Huai still couldn't spend the woman's money squandering it, and he also had a concern.

After getting in touch with Qi Qi in the past two days, it can be seen that her life skills are in a mess, and the only way to shop is through takeaway, and then she has a soft spot for junk food.Although Su Huai himself often tries to save money, or to eat leftover lunch boxes from the supermarket, or to eat a sandwich that has been reduced in price when the expiration date is approaching, but if he doesn't take good nutrition at his age, I'm afraid he will lose weight in the future. It's too late when you regret it.

In his mind, the news about Zhai Zhai dying in the house that he had seen in the news before, and the neighbors found out the police when the body stinks. Such a dire situation.

then what should we do?

After much deliberation, Su Huai could only think of a compromise solution, which was to go to the old landlord and ask him if there were any other rental houses in the apartment building here.

I guess you have already figured it out, the old landlord is not just the landlord of Su Huai's house, but several suites in a building.Because the place is old and simple, most of the renters are low-income people, and because of this, the mobility is relatively high, and sometimes the rent is not rented for a few months, like Su Huai who stays here as soon as he stays. It's been several years, which is relatively long among them.

No, Su Huai simply went to visit the old landlord.

Chapter 167 Old Man Liu

Su Huai was actually not familiar with this landlord, he only knew that his surname was Liu.

He lives alone on the first floor of this apartment, and a lot of the entire apartment is his property. He is a loud, single and stingy little old man.

Although his shriveled lips were often pursed tightly, and he always put on a face that others owed him a million and eighty thousand, Su Huai was very grateful to him.During the most difficult period of Su Huai's life, it was the old man Liu who let him live here with cheap rent. Although it was indeed a narrow and old house, such a cheap rent really made Su Huai survive. difficulties.

It may not have been emphasized before that Su Huai was not a native of Qiunan.

Just like the United States that once sparked the gold rush, the once-prosperous Hong Kong, the prosperity of every inch of land has attracted countless people chasing money and dreams.The same is true for the newly emerging Qiunan. From a dilapidated small fishing village to an international megacity, most of the people living here are immigrants.

The same is true for Su Huai.

It's just that compared to those speculators who came to Qiunan with the dream of getting rich, Su Huai was still very young when he came to Qiunan, he was only in the second year of junior high school, so he had no choice.

At that time, because his parents passed away, and there was no one in his hometown who was willing to take him in, he came to seek refuge with his second uncle who had left the village and had been working in Qiunan.

Su Huai's second uncle is a bastard.

In fact, people like them who come from poor places and have no education can only rely on wandering around, or sell their physical strength to do some physical work that others are unwilling to do.But Su Huai's second uncle was pretty good. With his wit and ruthlessness, he managed to get a position as a scene manager on a certain set.

It is his job to send messages from the director, schedule the actors, clear the scene, and order lunch boxes. It is because of such a person that Su Huai can get in touch with TV and movies.

Of course, this has nothing to do with the old man Liu who is going to talk about this meeting. In fact, it has nothing to do with the second uncle. The main thing is to explain a background.After all, Su Huai only relied on his second uncle for the first few years, and under his leadership he did some helpers that the law would not actually allow. But we all know that the second uncle died in a car accident because of alcoholism.

Su Huai was only 17 years old when his second uncle died.

This is a delicate age. Legally speaking, Su Huai is already able to apply for a job. The second uncle was also 17 years old when he left his hometown and came to Qiunan.

But in fact, we also know that it is not an easy task for a 17-year-old young man who can be described as a teenager to survive in this prosperous city with no roots or prosperity.The second uncle, who is proficient in eating, drinking, ticketing and gambling, did not leave any inheritance. The only remaining sympathy fund and the truck left by the driver who caused the accident escaped to pay off the debt. In the end, he sold the money except for burying the second uncle. He sent it to his wife and daughter, but Su Huai didn't keep any of it.

Su Huai, who had lost his only relative, was left with himself in this still unfamiliar city.

At that time, he really felt that the city was very big and empty, but he couldn't find a place for himself.

After all, the house that I used to live with my second uncle has been taken back, and Su Huai, who has been cut off from his source of income, can no longer live there, although there are still some old people who will miss his second uncle and introduce some errands to Su Huai life, but these are only emergency, but can not solve the fundamental problem.

Su Huai still remembered that he couldn't find a place to live at that time, so he hid from the urban management in the park and slept for half a month.

But this is not a long-term solution.

For one thing, after someone made a report, the police often came to watch the night. Su Huai didn't want to be caught as a homeless man, so he could only watch in surprise, not daring to sleep to death.What's more, the weather is gradually getting colder, and sleeping on a park chair wearing a piece of clothing like in the past is really not going to last long.

And under such circumstances, old man Liu took in Su Huai.

I remember that at the beginning, Su Huai couldn't pay the rent, and all the valuables on his body were paid to Old Man Liu, and even Su Huai himself was considered half of a hired worker to help Old Man Liu do some chores to pay off the debt.

After living like this for almost three months, Su Huai has been doing odd jobs all over the place, working for old man Liu when he is free, and barely has a nest in this city.After that, he found a job at the construction site, because the money for moving bricks on the construction site was more, and the situation gradually improved.

of course.

I am grateful, but from a human point of view, Su Huai couldn't say too many compliments to old man Liu.

He was notoriously mean-spirited.

Although he took in Su Huai in the predicament and rented him a house, he took away everything that Su Huai had at the time as compensation.Even if I returned those things to Su Huai later, he would come to the door on time before and after the rent collection, and if there was any arrears, he would yell and say something mean in a voice that could be heard in the whole building Extreme words.

It is precisely because of this that, except for Su Huai, most people can't live for too long.

In addition, old man Liu's stinginess is also reflected in various bits and pieces.

He never borrowed his own things, not only scrupulously budgeted for utility bills, but even charged money for some common things, so that when Tsuruya visited last time, he said that the pot was borrowed from the old man. Jaws dropped.

——But after thinking about it, it is likely that Tsuruya gave the old man some benefits, after all, he is a rich man who doesn't care about spending money.

In addition to being stingy and stingy, old man Liu's rigidity and indifference often confuse those who want to get along with him.

Su Huai has been a loner since he moved here, and he has never heard him mention his family. If it wasn't for collecting rent, or to complain about what you did to make him feel uncomfortable, old man Liu would almost Will not have any contact with.

Even if we met in the corridor area, ordinary people would say hello or something, but he would pretend that he didn't hear or see anything and just walked past you in such a grandiose way, which was quite embarrassing.

In short, the old man Liu in Su's bad impression.

Lonely, out of gregarious, and a little mean, but he is indeed such a person who helped him in his most difficult time.

To be honest, Su Huai would not ask for a visit if he could not get in touch with Old Man Liu, but after all, if you want to find a room nearby, it would be the most convenient and quickest way to go directly to him, so Su Huai still went down. upstairs, and knocked on Old Man Liu's door.

He knocked on the door three times in a row.

Probably after confirming that this was not a prank by the salesman or the kid nearby, a voice of inquiry came from behind the window tightly covered by curtains.

"Who?"

"Mr. Liu, it's me, the little villain of 307."

Su Huai replied.

Then there was a rustling sound behind the door panel, and Su Huai could feel that someone was watching the outside through the cat's eye on the door, and soon after, the door opened a crack.

Half of old man Liu's face was exposed through the crack of the door, while the other half was still hidden in the darkness.All he could see was the gray eyebrows on the wrinkled old face, and he asked Su Huai impatiently, "What's the matter? The rent is due on the 20th. You've lived here for so long. I must know that I can't default, and if I want to borrow something, I don't have it."

"No." Although Su Huai had already expected the attitude of the other party, he was still choked by the old man Liu's words. He hurriedly put some fruits he bought before he came here towards the crack of the door, and said: "I bought some fruit and sent it to you."

Old man Liu glanced at the fruit bag Su Huai handed over, but didn't take it.

He quickly raised his head and looked at Su Huai: "What's the matter?"

"Well, Mr. Liu, I want to ask if you have any vacant rooms for rent recently. It's best to have a room closer to mine."

"What?" Old Man Liu narrowed his eyes suspiciously: "What's wrong with your room, do you want to change it? Did it break my wall, or did the water pipe break?"

Facing old man Liu's black face of asking you, Su Huai quickly denied: "No, I want to rent a room with you, and the rent is negotiable."

"It's a good place to live. Why do you want to rent another room? You boy, it seems that you have received a new play recently. I remember hearing what the girl who was looking for you said before. Why, did you make money?"

Old man Liu also knew something about Su Huai's constant playing tricks, so Su Huai didn't know how to reply, so he could only smile and sloppyly say, "Well, I made a little money."

"How much did you earn?"

"Earn a few thousand."

"Thousands..." Old man Liu snorted coldly, "Thousands of dollars are nothing, this money is not enough to buy a toilet in Qiunan, and I want to live in a big house like others."

Saying this, Old Man Liu was about to close the door, Su Huai hurriedly grabbed the edge of his door, stopped him and said: "Old Liu, you misunderstood, I am here because a cousin recently took refuge in me, and my house is You know, it's not good for a lonely man and a widow to live in the same room."

"cousin?"

"Yes, I just came from the countryside recently. After all, they are young men and women. It is easy to make mistakes when staying in the same room. I just wanted to ask you if there is a similar room that can be rented to me."

Hearing what Su Huai said, old man Liu stopped and continued to close the door.
