Chapter 24: A Friend's House

Qiao Zhen made a casual phone call and helped Xia Rui get the house.

Not far from the school, it is a pretty good apartment building, although the environment is not as good as where Qiao Zhen lives, but compared to Xia Rui's previous community, I don't know how many steps higher.

"It's too high-end, I think it's better to change places. Xia Rui lingered and refused to go in.

The little money in her pocket is probably not enough for a month's rent.

Qiao Zhen is a smart person, so he naturally saw her embarrassment, so he said: "Don't worry, this is my friend's house, he has been to the United States all these years, he asked me to help him take care of it, and he doesn't need rent......

He knew that this Xia Rui had a high spirit, so he made up such a reason. What's more, he has paid the rent for this house for two years, and Xia Rui didn't have to worry about the rent in the first place.

"Really?" Xia Rui was skeptical. But when I think about it, it's not impossible for him to have such friends by his side.

She pondered for a while and said, "In this way, I will pay a thousand yuan in rent a month, and if it is not enough, I will make up it later." Well, here is the room rate for two months. ”

She took out two thousand yuan and handed it to Qiao Zhen.

Regardless of whether the house wants money or not, she doesn't want to owe Qiao Zhen.

Qiao Zhen was really speechless when he looked at it, but he also knew that this girl was soft on the outside and strong on the inside, and once she decided, the nine cows would not be able to pull it back.

He shrugged helplessly, took the money and said, "Okay, I'll keep it for you temporarily." ”

There is also a reception in the apartment and the staff is a young sweet girl who greeted them politely when seen.

The hall is large and beautifully decorated with marble, and there are several beautiful potted plants next to the elevator.

This is exactly the living environment that Xia Rui has longed for before. Those high-end villas are too far away from her, so she has always hoped to live in such a clean and spacious residential building, but she didn't expect it to become a reality now!

She couldn't help but sigh, it was like a dream.

The place where Qiao Zhen helped her find a place to live was on the eighteenth floor. After getting off the elevator, the corridor is very spacious and tidy, and there are also beautiful potted plants. Xia Rui looked around, feeling exceptionally fresh.

Qiao Zhen stopped at the door of the third room when he got off the elevator and turned left, and then quickly entered the code on the password lock at the door and opened the door.

"Let's go inside. He turned back to her.

Xia Rui was stunned. If he also knew the password, wouldn't he be able to enter and exit at any time in the future?

How inconvenient this is.

But after all, this is the place he was looking for, and it doesn't seem good to say this thing when he first comes here. Besides, isn't there a lock in the bedroom, and won't it be okay to lock it when the time comes?

She thought, it seems that this is the only way to do it first.

After entering the house, she was amazed again.

The living room is particularly spacious and bright, with a wide view of the floor-to-ceiling glass, which can see far away.

Next, Qiao Zhen took her to see the kitchen, bathroom and guest room, and she liked them all. Finally, Qiao Zhen said, "Let's go, I'll take you to see your master bedroom......"

Xia Rui blushed when she heard this, and said, "No need, I'll go and see it myself later......"

Qiao Zhen was stunned and understood, and couldn't help but think that this girl's sense of self-protection was too strong. But it's good to think about it, she is like this to herself, and she must be the same to other men, so he doesn't have to worry about who will take advantage of her.

"Well, let's go out to dinner. "After tossing for so long, he is still really hungry.

Xia Rui glanced at the luggage on the ground and said, "I still have to pack my luggage, so I won't go, and besides, I'm not hungry." ”

Qiao Zhen frowned and said, "How can you not be hungry, you were still so desperate just now...... Let's go, I'll take you to eat good. ”

It was difficult to go, so Xia Rui had to agree.

"Then I'll go change my clothes. After the fierce struggle just now, her clothes were wrinkled and unsightly.

"Okay, you can go quickly. Qiao Zhen said, "I'm waiting for you here." ”

Xia Rui took her clothes and went into the bedroom, and immediately locked the door.

She was stunned by this casual sweep.

Is this a bedroom, it's too big.

Not to mention a huge bed, there is a beautiful dressing table, chest of drawers, and a separate cloakroom next to it!

When Xia Rui was in a daze, she heard Qiao Yu urging outside, "Hey, have you changed it yet?"

Xia Rui hurriedly responded: "It'll be fine soon......"

I hurriedly changed my clothes, put my hair in a simple bun by the way, and went out.

Qiao Zhen stood there and felt his eyes light up.

Although it is just a plain dress, and the style is also very ordinary, it makes Xia Rui's skin as white as snow, beautiful and lovely. The hair is coiled high, revealing a slender and beautiful neck, revealing a different kind of elegant charm.

"It's so beautiful!" Qiao Zhen walked over and hugged her and wanted to kiss her.

Xia Rui tilted her head skillfully, and Qiao Zhen's lips fell on her cheek.

"I'm sorry, I seem to be really hungry......" Xia Rui smiled at him.

Qiao Zhen resisted the urge to kiss her, grabbed her waist and said, "Let's go, I know there is a restaurant nearby that is very good......"

*

In the restaurant.

Seeing Xia Rui eat so little, Qiao Zhen couldn't help frowning, "Didn't you say you were hungry just now, why don't you eat more?"

Xia Rui couldn't tell him that she was worried about her mother Huang Cuilan. She stabbed Zeng Guoqiang today, will he be angry with her mother because of this?

After thinking about it, I decided to call my mother and ask her about her situation.

seems to have a heart, and it just so happened that her mother Huang Cuilan called.

"I'm sorry, I'm going to answer the phone. After that, he picked up his phone and got up.

Walking down the hallway of the dining room, she answered the phone. Immediately, I heard Huang Cuilan's complaint, "Hey, what's the matter with you? I came back late from temporary overtime today, are you in such a hurry to move out, and you don't even say hello......

Xia Rui didn't hear her mention Zeng Guoqiang, so she couldn't help asking: "Just for this, is there nothing else?" Zeng ...... Uncle Zeng......"

Huang Cuilan was stunned for a moment and asked, "Oh, do you know that your great-uncle was injured in a fight with someone after drinking?" Strange, he said that when he went home, you would be gone......

Xia Rui hurriedly explained: "Oh, I saw him on the road, maybe he didn't see me......"

Huang Cuilan didn't seem to be suspicious of this, but she was still very angry, "You are really, he is also your stepfather, you didn't send him to the hospital when you saw him injured......

Xia Rui muttered quietly, "I don't have such a stepfather." ”

Huang Cuilan asked over there, "What did you say?"

Xia Rui hurriedly said: "It's nothing, I was in the car at the time, and I couldn't get out of the car." By the way, are you alright?"

Huang Cuilan said angrily: "With a disobedient daughter like you, can I get better? By the way, remember to pay living expenses every month, okay, so be it." ”

After saying that, he hung up directly.

Xia Rui stayed there with her phone in her hand.

Is this still my own mother? Other people's mothers call to ask for warmth, but her mother is good, she is full of money and money!

Is money really more important than affection?

She sighed deeply in her heart.
