Chapter 41 This brat is really shameless!
Chapter 41 This brat is really shameless!
Zheng Yumeng nodded timidly and said softly, "It's me. I heard from Senior Ning that he's your friend. You happen to have some cheap apartments for rent here, and there's no deposit required, and the electricity is cheap too. Could you please take us to see the apartments? Thank you."
However, she felt a little strange.
I have this feeling that the sexy, hot, and very attractive rental manager is looking at me strangely, like she's a little hostile.
"The rent is negotiable. The owner of this house doesn't care much about the rent; he's more interested in chasing girls."
You Jinyu smiled knowingly, deliberately adding a sentence, and glanced at Ning Xiuyang beside her.
Ning Xiuyang raised an eyebrow and awkwardly touched his nose.
Zheng Yumeng blinked blankly, somewhat puzzled. But before she could ask what was on her mind, You Jinyu reached out and said warmly, "Let's go, this is Building 9, the elevator goes right to your apartment."
Interrupted from her dream, Zheng Yu didn't dare to press further about why the original owner of the house liked chasing girls and didn't care about the rent. She immediately jogged after You Jinyu.
Ning Xiuyang followed.
The three of them walked straight into Building 9, and after taking the elevator, You Jinyu pressed the button for the 13th floor.
The 13th and 14th floors were opened up to form a luxury apartment with a large and spacious area.
Soon, led by You Jinyu, Ning Xiuyang and Zheng Yumeng arrived at room 1314.
Zheng Yumeng was dumbfounded as soon as she entered the room.
The house is luxuriously decorated and fully equipped with appliances, including a robot vacuum cleaner, a washing machine, and even a complete set of kitchen utensils. It's practically move-in ready.
What's even more amazing is the bright and clean environment, the nearly 20-square-meter terrace, and the floor-to-ceiling windows that allow for excellent natural light.
It has two floors, with two rooms on the first floor: a bedroom and a study.
Go up the spiral staircase to the second floor, where, apart from a relatively small common area, there are four rooms at both ends of the corridor, as well as a bathroom and a terrace.
With these conditions, you're only charging 700 yuan a month?
I bet quite a few people would rent it for 7000 a month!
After touring the room, Zheng Yumeng was a little incredulous, and even too shy to ask any questions.
She had never lived in such a spacious and luxurious house before. In her hometown, the house was a brick and tile house with two walls made of yellow mud bricks. The floor was uneven and the bed was made of straw, with a cotton quilt that her mother had given her as part of her dowry.
You can even occasionally catch bedbugs on the bed, not to mention lice.
The bathing area was a small room that my father built himself with bricks and tiles next to the outhouse.
Before my sister and I were born, my father would take a bath outside, while my mother would wash herself in a wooden basin in the storage room.
Because both he and his sister were girls, there were many inconveniences, so his father started building the bathroom, but he only put a layer of cement on it, and spiders and ants were everywhere.
With my current circumstances, how could I possibly deserve to live in such a luxurious house!
For a moment, Zheng Yumeng couldn't help but feel a little hesitant.
"How is it? Are you satisfied?"
You Jinyu looked at Zheng Yumeng with a smile, and Ning Xiuyang also looked at her.
Zheng Yumeng nodded timidly, then shook her head.
Ning Xiuyang couldn't help but laugh and said, "Mengmeng, what do you mean by nodding and shaking your head like that? You can tell me what you're thinking. If you think the rent is a bit expensive, I can talk to Sister You for you."
Hearing this, You Jinyu couldn't help but roll her eyes inwardly.
This house costs at least 18,000 yuan a month to rent out. Even though you're only renting one room for 700 yuan, it's still a great deal. Is that expensive?
After all, this place isn't exactly remote, and it's quite close to Zhonghai University.
A teacher wanted to rent it before, but there were too many rooms and the rent was too expensive. She didn't have enough people living in her house, so she gave up.
"No, no... 700 is already very cheap!"
Zheng Yumeng hurriedly shook her head, her eyes filled with panic, and explained somewhat timidly, "I just... I just feel that renting a room for 700 yuan is a bit unrealistic. Senior Ning, did you say something to Sister You, or... did you help me pay part of the rent?"
Zheng Yumeng hesitated before revealing her guess.
Despite their poverty, the two sisters have always been very proud, and this pride supported them in studying in the international metropolis of Shanghai, making them hesitant to accept handouts.
Tsk.
You Jinyu's eyes lit up slightly, and she couldn't help but look at this little girl in a new light. She had guessed so accurately; she was quite clever.
Although it wasn't an advance payment, the house now belongs to Ning Xiuyang, and he could let the girl live there for free if he wanted to.
But when she saw the look Ning Xiuyang gave her, she immediately smiled and explained, "Little sister, you're mistaken. Although your senior Ning and I are very good friends, this house is entrusted to our company. How can I just lower the price arbitrarily? If the boss finds out, I'll lose my job!"
"The boss has a condition, I don't know if you can accept it."
You Jinyu changed the subject, looking at Zheng Yumeng, whose eyes were slightly brightening.
"What are the conditions?"
Zheng Yumeng stared intently at You Jinyu.
You Jinyu smiled and said, "The landlord means that it's for a group of acquaintances or friends, or a family. If it's just you alone, we probably can't rent it to you for 700 yuan..."
You Jinyu deliberately pretended to be in a difficult position.
Upon hearing this, Zheng Yumeng immediately frowned and considered for a moment. Then, she held up three fingers and said timidly, "Three...three people, is that okay? They are all very nice girls, including me. We will definitely take good care of the house."
She actually meant to say four people.
But then she thought, Shen Youyou is a local, so why should she just go home and live in a rented place instead of paying extra money?
However, his younger sister Zheng Yulu, along with Tang Wei, would probably both agree.
I won't talk about Lulu.
Besides attending classes, Tang Wei spends all her time working part-time outside. She is often locked out of the dormitory when she tries to return. If there were a house that cost 700 yuan a month and included a washing machine, kitchen, and bathroom, she would definitely be willing to rent it.
You Jinyu glanced at Ning Xiuyang, and seeing his imperceptible shake of the head, she smiled helplessly and immediately said to Zheng Yumeng, whose eyes were full of hope, "It might not work..."
"Sister, you've seen it yourself. This house has five rooms, excluding the study. The landlord's original intention was to rent out all five rooms to ensure proper maintenance. As for the study, you can share it for studying, which is fine. So, do you think we could find two more people to move in?"
You Jinyu felt helpless; her boss was trying to pick up girls, but she was the one who had to play the bad guy.
That brat is so shameless!
But for some reason, seeing him 'deceive' this naive young girl like this, I didn't feel disgusted at all; instead, I felt a little excited.
It gives off a sense of aiding and abetting evil.
"If you can find it, I can waive your deposit. The rent will be paid monthly. For five people, it will be 700 yuan per person. Including utilities, it will be about 4000 yuan a month. That way, I can give the boss an account," Yu Jinyu added again.
"Well……"
Including utilities, it would only cost 800 yuan a month. Zheng Yumeng was undeniably tempted.
But five people need to move in, so where am I going to find the other two?
Zheng Yumeng's eyes darted around, and she couldn't help but look at Ning Xiuyang, who was standing silently to the side. Her timid eyes held a hint of pleading for help.
