Over the next four days, Qi Min went to see more than a dozen houses on the websites of rental agents. After clearly understanding how high the rental price in Beijing is, and how small the size of the urban house is that is very incompatible, she finally found a house that she felt okay after continuous compromise.

This house is also in the old neighborhood, the tower is low, but the house is really well decorated inside, and the location is very convenient. It's a little smaller, but there are two bedrooms and a small hallway for the little ones to run around. Qi Min took the photo and sent it to Anton, who also thought it was okay, and the rent was equivalent to about $1,000 a month, which made him, a person who didn't know about domestic prices, feel that it was normal.

Therefore, Qi Min decided to rent this house. The owners of the house are also a husband and wife, about the same age as Qi Min's parents, who also lived in this small house when they were young, but moved away from the city after retirement. They were happy to rent it to a family like Qi Min with children, so it was quickly negotiated.

The house itself is very clean and perfectly ready to move in. After Qi Min bought pillows and futons and other things, he moved to this house.

Yan Zhaolan also came to see it, and she also felt that the house was really good, but she had other questions: "Why are you here alone?" Where's your boyfriend? ”

"Uh...... He hasn't come yet. Qi Min replied.

"You're all here, why hasn't he come yet? And he didn't come when you had a treat......" Yan Zhaolan couldn't help but wonder, "What, what's wrong?" ”

"It's nothing." Qi Min replied embarrassedly, saying that it was just that Anton's visa had not yet been completed, and it would take time for him to resign and return the rented house.

"Are you alright?" Yan Zhaolan raised her eyebrows and looked at her and said, "It's okay, if you have any questions, you can come to me at any time." ”

Qi Min couldn't help but be a little moved when he heard her words, and immediately said, "That's for sure, who is with whom." ”

——

After Yan Zhaolan's family moved out to the house he rented, Qi Min's place of residence was closer to the school. But because she doesn't have any wet experiments in the lab now, there is no need to stay in the lab all day, so the time she spends in the lab is slightly shorter than before.

In the past, Qi Min would stay with Wang Xin and Chen Linyou every night after dinner, and leave the laboratory with them. Now she doesn't have to take the subway, but can go home as long as she rides the car, and she doesn't have to worry about the evening rush hour of the subway, but cares more about riding before it gets completely dark, so she left a short time after dinner.

Wang Xin was not very satisfied with this. Before, they could all play games for a while after dinner, but now Qi Min left early, and it was not easy for the two of them and Ke Li to team up. Ke Li is a house, and he likes to play cards with two-dimensional girls, and he eats chicken at the same level as Wang Xin, and he can't take them at all. Chen Linyou, as a junior doctoral student, is not easy to command, and the senior is still a senior brother in other laboratories.

So inevitably Wang Xin proposed to find Hua Ruiming, who had been playing with them before, to take them.

Of course, Wang Xin knew that this Senior Brother Hua was a little interesting to Qi Min, and Qi Min suddenly stopped playing with him some time ago, and she could guess that something unpleasant had probably happened. In all fairness, although Hua Ruiming is a bit of a straight man, he is quite good to the people in their laboratory, so Wang Xin supports him in her heart.

However, Wang Xin originally felt that whether it could be done was a matter of Qi Min and Hua Ruiming, and no one else could interfere. But now the partner has sent another boy, Ke Li, and Qi Min is still talking and laughing with Ke Li, which can't help but make Wang Xin feel that this is the prelude to "the first month near the water". And what made Wang Xin dissatisfied was that the new Senior Brother Ke even asked her senior sister to change the code for him, which was really too bad, and Senior Brother Hua was so strong that he didn't know where to go.

In order to guide her senior sister to make the "right choice", Wang Xin felt that she still had to find a way to make Hua Ruiming reappear in her life and brush up on her sense of existence.

This time, after dinner, Qi Min hadn't left, Wang Xin and Chen Linyou opened the chicken mobile game and deliberately invited Hua Ruiming.

Qi Min was packing up his things in his seat, and he didn't pay much attention to hearing that Wang Xin and Chen Linyou were eating chicken again. These two people are playing, but the experiment is still done, Qi Min doesn't like to encroach on the rest time of her subordinates, not to mention that she herself takes them to play games together.

However, as soon as she walked to the door of the laboratory with her bag on her back, she thought that Mr. Lin's laboratory downstairs would transfer the extra ice machine to her. Now someone needs to take a hand and bring that big guy up.

Originally, it was more appropriate to call Chen Linyou, but Qi Min saw that he was playing a game, so he asked Ke Li: "By the way, Ke Li, is there something wrong now?" ”

"It's okay, what's wrong?" Ke Li looked up and asked.

"Let's go down and get the ice machine." Qi Min said, and added, "There is no need to move it raw, there is an elevator and a small cart, but it takes two people to lift it to the small cart." ”

"That's fine." Ke Li immediately said, "Let's go." ”

The conversation on their side also spread from Wang Xin and Chen Linyou's microphones to Hua Ruiming's side.

When they were in a building, Hua Ruiming asked, "Hey, the one who spoke just now is a newcomer from your laboratory?" ”

"Oh, Senior Brother Ke is from the collaborator's lab." Chen Linyou replied without much thought.

Wang Xin pretended to be casual and said: "It is said that I came specifically to help my sister do animal experiments, and I seem to be quite familiar with my sister." ”

These words are obviously useful to Hua Ruiming. Qi Min rejected him on the grounds that he couldn't break off with his ex-boyfriend, but now he is getting closer to the new doctoral student, and he can't say anything.

He asked again, "How is it cooked?" Won't he eat chicken with you? ”

"Oh, Senior Brother Ke doesn't play this kind of game much." Wang Xin said, "He is now going downstairs with his senior sister to move the ice machine." And you see, my sister hasn't been playing much lately? ”

In fact, Qi Min just doesn't play much after dinner, but he still has an addiction during the break after lunch. It's just that the lunch time of the two laboratories is not the same, and Hua Ruiming will not meet Qi Min when he goes online.

"Actually, Senior Sister is still-" Chen Linyou was about to correct her statement, but Wang Xin glared at her, so she had to change her words a little inexplicably, "It's just playing occasionally." ”

Sure enough, after learning the news, Hua Ruiming lowered his voice and asked them, "What have you senior sisters been doing lately?" It feels like I haven't seen you in a long time. ”

This is the question that makes Wang Xin satisfied: "Actually, Senior Sister went to the United States for a meeting two days ago, and it has been a matter of the past few days since she came back to join Senior Brother Ke. But recently, my sister left the laboratory at six o'clock, so I guess there was something else going on. ”
