Mr. Zhao Fei's house squatting neighbor

It has been exactly three months since Zhao Fei resigned from the company where he had worked for nearly ten years.

Although he had already made sufficient psychological preparations and Xu Chaoran was very happy to welcome him to join the army at home, but it was a pity that just three days after he left the job, the headhunters who heard the news broke the phone call.

"I'm back." Zhao Fei has now opened the door of Xu Chaoran's house very naturally.He put the bag on the cabinet in the entrance, squatted down and prepared to change his slippers.

"Meow meow meow meow~!" Huazai hurriedly yelled and ran over, raised her head and rubbed against his hand.Zhao Fei had to free up one hand while changing the shoes, and followed Huazai's movements to caress its chin and small ears.

"Huazi, are you having fun at home today? Have you eaten the hair removal cream I bought?"

"It's having a great time, and even knocked over my coffee..." Xu Chaoran appeared in front of one person and one cat, a little unhappy.

Having been with him for a long time, Zhao Fei knows that this guy is pretending to be wronged again without even looking. "Okay, Huazi's mischievous appearance is also very cute."

Xu Chaoran's eyes widened: "Yaoshou, Xiaofei only cares about Huazi in his heart, and doesn't care about me at all!"

Zhao Fei couldn't laugh or cry. "I care about you, I care about you... Is there any burn?"

Seeing his beloved get up and hold his hand, Xu Chaoran smiled and hugged him back. "No. Xiao Fei still loves me the most. Hehe."

Leaning on the man's broad shoulders, Zhao Fei blushed unconsciously.He complained in a low voice: "Just say these nice things."

The smile on his face was extremely happy.

Shortly after Zhao Fei left, he found a job in another company.

The position is still the Minister of Finance, but the company is much smaller, and the number of subordinates has been reduced by half compared to before.He didn't really mind it, after all, the previous work intensity was too high, and the requirements for psychological quality were too high.He wanted to take a breather and work leisurely for a while.

In the past, he had always put work first—in addition to the habit of saving and saving money since he was a child, Zhao Fei believed that he would always be single is also an important reason.However, since he had to see a psychiatrist because of Zheng Ruiduo's threats, cleanliness and obsessive-compulsive symptoms became more serious, he was forced to re-examine his life.

Xu Chaoran was like a ray of light that changed his entire life.

Now, even the single life has been ended by men, and Zhao Fei also intentionally or unintentionally imitates Xu Chaoran's behavior and his extremely self-styled attitude towards life.When he received calls from more than a dozen headhunters, he was at a loss - he didn't expect that he would be so popular.After careful consideration, he chose this company.

"Stop talking, come and eat!" Xu Chaoran smiled and waved to the dining table. "It's specially prepared for you."

"What?" Zhao Fei walked in and took a look, "This is..."

"Congratulations on passing the company's probationary period! Dang dang!" Xu Chaoran laughed. "But you must understand that I want to eat cream cake."

Zhao Fei looked at him helplessly. "It's not that I just started working, I'm already 31 years old, I feel so childish... But thank you."

"But, at first, I happily thought that Xiaofei would become a squat at home like me. Who would have thought that he would find a job again within a week after resigning..." Xu Chaoran was cutting a small cake, full of resentment .

"It's good to stay at home, but if I'm in finance, it's hard to work from home..." Zhao Fei took the cake he handed over and thanked him in a low voice. "At that time, I also considered taking a part-time job, but I had to travel back and forth to four or five companies frequently. The audit work also required frequent business trips. So in the end, this company is the most suitable for me now."

The distance to the new house is relatively close, the workload is not heavy, and there is no need to work overtime except for two or three days at the beginning and end of the month—Zhao Fei explained to Xu Chaoran the reason for choosing this company.

"My colleagues are also very kind to me. Although everyone is in the industry, I think everyone has heard about my previous company." Saying this, Zhao Fei's expression was very relaxed. "In the future, if I meet someone like Mr. Zheng again, I won't swallow my anger."

"Also pay attention to protecting yourself. If you have anything to discuss with me." Xu Chaoran looked at him with a smile.

"I will."

The eyes of the two were entangled, full of trust and love for each other.Just when the atmosphere was extremely sweet, a high-pitched cry broke the warm dinner atmosphere.

Huazai's two front paws and small mouth were covered with white cream, and the whole cat lost its balance and fell from the dining table to the floor.Huazai yelled loudly while wrestling with the sticky cream seriously.

"Hua Zai... unexpectedly jumped up and ate the cake!" The two quickly got up, Xu Chaoran grabbed the cowcat who was throwing the cream all over the floor, Zhao Fei picked up the tissue box and wiped its mouth and paws.

After finally wiping off all the hair sticking to the cream, Zhao Fei turned around and began to clean the floor.Xu Chaoran hugged Huazai's armpit with a serious face, and brought the big round yellow eyes of the cow cat to be at the same line of sight as his own. "Huazi! Don't make trouble. And if you steal cream, you will get sick! Do you know?"

Huazai was unmoved, and kept sticking out his little tongue to lick his mouth, as if he was still thinking about it.

"It's also curious, don't scare Huazai." Zhao Fei packed up and cut another piece of cake for Xu Chaoran.

"It's because you dote on Huazai too much, it ignores my words now." Xu Chaoran looked at Huazai licking his mouth and paws nonchalantly.

"Hua Zai is usually very obedient, and he will come over as soon as I call him. It's okay to be naughty once in a while." Zhao Fei raised his red wine glass. "Thank you, Chaoran. It's great to meet you..."

He was embarrassed to say these words out of his mouth.Zhao Fei's cheeks began to turn slightly red again.

"Don't say that. I am also very happy, being with you..."

The wine glasses of the two collided, and the clear and bright sound of glass colliding resounded in the small bachelor apartment.

A few days later, Xu Chaoran got the keys to the three rooms and two halls.Regarding the decoration of the new house, under Zhao Fei's suggestion, Xu Chaoran entrusted it to Zhao Fei's friend's boyfriend.

"Old classmate, you really look different from before!" Feng Nan sat opposite Zhao Fei, ordered a cup of coffee from the waiter, and stared at Zhao Fei with great interest.

Zhao Fei was a little embarrassed. "Yes, is it..."

"I'm more energetic and confident than before. That's what I want! You underestimate yourself too much. You have to be confident so you won't be bullied by others!"

Zhao Fei had no choice but to nod repeatedly.

On the table next to them, Xu Chaoran and Feng Nan's boyfriend were concentrating on each decoration plan.Feng Nan purposely moved closer to Zhao Fei's ear, and whispered: "This guy doesn't look like he's squatting at home at all..."

Tall and big, the figure must be very strong!Are you really a code farmer who sits in front of the computer at home every day?Feng Nan looked at Xu Chaoran suspiciously. "Could you have been cheated by him?"

"So squatting at home is just what he calls himself..." Zhao Fei explained to his old friend with a wry smile.

"Then, let's decide on this simple and bright Nordic style." Feng Nan's boyfriend Lang Yi is the owner of a decoration company and also a designer. "May I ask if you want our company to provide only the design proposal, or leave all the decoration work to us?"

Xu Chaoran looked at the design drawing with a satisfied expression. "Leave it all to your company. I'm very relieved to be introduced by Xiao Fei's friend. Besides, I don't have time to keep an eye on the progress of the scene."

"I understand. If you have any questions, we will contact you at any time." Lang Yi took the spare key from Xu Chaoran. "It will take about three months to complete the renovation. After that, it will take another three months to ventilate. It is expected to be able to move in after April next year."

"Okay, we're not in a hurry." Xu Chaoran smiled at Zhao Fei across the table. "The only remaining issues are cat climbing frames, cat litter boxes and sky walkways to be installed on the walls and in the living room."

Lang Yi nodded and picked up the materials on the table. "I have written down your request. After I go back, I will complete the design of these small furniture as soon as possible and send you a rendering for confirmation."

"That's good." The two shook hands, indicating a happy cooperation.

"The business is over, let's come over and have a chat!" Feng Nan greeted them warmly.Xu Chaoran and Lang Yi stood up and walked towards the table where Zhao Fei and the others were sitting.

Just as he was about to sit down, Xu Chaoran's cell phone rang suddenly.When he looked at it, he saw some familiar numbers.After thinking about it, he and the other three signaled to answer the phone, then turned and walked out of the morning tea shop.

The phone rings continuously.Xu Chaoran cleared his mind and pressed the answer button. "Hello."

"Hello, is this Mr. Xu Chaoran?" A deep and flat male voice came from the other end of the phone.

"it's me."

"Hello, I am the secretary of Mr. Zheng, the chairman of Company X. Mr. Zheng has something to discuss with you. When are you free these days?"

finally come.Xu Chaoran looked at the busy traffic on the street which was slightly crowded due to the weekend. "Is it okay on weekdays?"

"No problem. It depends on your time."

"Okay. How about next Monday morning? I'll decide the location."

The other end of the phone paused for a few seconds.

"No problem. Mr. Xu."

Xu Chaoran looked back into the store.Zhao Fei turned his back to him, Feng Nan on the opposite side was talking with a smile, and Lang Yi beside Feng Nan was also smiling.

"The location is at the coffee shop near your company. It's where Mr. Zheng Ruiduo and Xiao Fei from your company met last time."

The secretary paused again. "Okay. Mr. Xu. Looking forward to meeting you."

Xu Chaoran put down his phone and sighed softly.He patted his face, relaxed the muscles on his face, until he showed a normal smile, then turned and walked towards Zhao Fei's back.
