I was on the clouds

Chapter 29 The New Tenant

A month ago, Chi Xiangnuan lived with others in a dark and damp basement, worrying about next month's rent every day.

In this good location, the dilapidated basement is also very valuable, but unfortunately, what Chi Xiangnuan lacks most is money.

Under the predicament of extreme lack of money, she took up the job of posting small advertisements in the corridor.

When it was pasted to the fourth floor, the door was suddenly pushed open. At that time, Chi Xiangnuan was pressing the scotch tape on the door, so that she was directly hit by the door on the nose, and the nosebleed flowed all over her face. People were also knocked to the ground.

She clutched her nose, crying from the pain, and raised her head in panic to apologize.

She raised her head and saw a girl in school uniform standing in front of the door, looking down at her with a cold face.

This is the whitest person Chi Xiangnuan has ever seen. She is unimaginably white. Her skin is cold and white, but her lips are bright red. The upper lip is thinner than the lower lip, and the shape of her lips is exquisite. And sharp, like the mysterious and gloomy vampires in western comics.

The most eye-catching thing is her eyebrows and eyes. The eyes under the long and straight eyebrows are black and golden. The black is like thick ink, and the gold is like amber. The two colors form an extremely strong contrast.

Looking at the shape, it is obviously romantic and affectionate peach blossom eyes, but there is no warmth in the eyes, they are all indifference that rejects people thousands of miles away.

Chi Xiangnuan's tongue was tied, and tears mixed with nosebleeds trickled down his fingers one after another, dripping on the camel-colored cotton dress.

The girl standing at the door frowned slightly, she blinked, walked up to her and bent down, holding her back firmly with one arm, and picked her up from the ground very easily.

"Are you okay?" The voice was cold, and the tone of Gujing Wubo was very calm, without apology at all.

Chi Xiangnuan was so aggrieved that he couldn't speak, and kept covering his nose and looking at her with tears in his eyes. The girl glanced at her, dragged her into the room, pointed to the gray fabric sofa and said, "Sit down for a while."

Chi Xiangnuan sat on the sofa tremblingly, she leaned forward and was very careful not to let the nosebleed fall on the sofa.

The girl went into the bathroom, and after a while she came over with a wet towel, took off Chi Xiangnuan's hand and wiped the nosebleed off her face.

Chi Xiangnuan was very embarrassed, she blushed and whispered, "I can do it myself."

The girl handed her the towel, opened her mouth and said, "Lean forward, pinch the cartilage under the bridge of the nose, keep pressing, don't let go."

Chi Xiangnuan nodded, leaned forward and pinched his nose.

Looking at the white towel stained by nosebleeds in her hand, she felt that she was such a useless person. She stood there stupidly posting a small advertisement when she heard the sound of the doorknob turning, and this time she caused trouble for others again.

She was very disturbed and just wanted to stop the nosebleed and leave this place, but the weather was unlucky, and after 10 minutes her nosebleed still did not stop.

There were bloodstains on the cotton skirt and front, and the girl's expression finally changed a little.

However, this change is very wonderful, neither worry nor anxiety, but a kind of vague joy.

Chi Xiangnuan felt that he must have read it wrong.

That wonderful expression only stayed on her face for a short moment and then disappeared. The girl grabbed her from the sofa and said, "I'll take you to the hospital."

go to the hospital?How much will it cost?

Poor Chi Xiangnuan hurriedly shook his head, pinched his nose and said in a muffled voice, "Don't go to the hospital, I'll be fine in a while."

The girl ignored her and dragged her all the way downstairs. The morning was the busiest traffic time in the city, and the two of them stood there for 10 minutes in a daze, but they didn't get a taxi.

Chi Xiangnuan suddenly found that the nosebleed had stopped when her heart was fluttering. She excitedly grabbed Ye Xi's sleeve, pointed to her nose and said, "There's no need to go to the hospital, the nosebleed has stopped."

The girl broke her chin and looked at her nose seriously.

She was more than a little taller than Chi Xiangnuan, and when she bent down, she gave off a strong sense of oppression and aggression.

Chi Xiangnuan blinked and stared at her blankly.

The girl glanced at her: "Where do you live, I will take you back."

Chi Xiangnuan rubbed his nose and shook his head again and again: "No need, I live in the basement over there, and I will be there in a few steps."

The girl glanced at her and took out her mobile phone from her bag: "Let's save the number, and call me anytime if you feel uncomfortable."

Chi Xiangnuan looked at the iPhone in the girl's hand, and embarrassedly remembered the old Nokia in her bag: "No need, I'm fine."

The girl looked at her with eyes of different colors for two seconds, and then said, "Tell me your mobile phone number, and I will save it."

Chi Xiangnuan breathed a sigh of relief, and said a series of numbers.

"It's best if you're fine. I still have to go to class. If you feel uncomfortable, come to me at any time." After saying this, the girl turned around and left immediately after confirming her mobile phone number.

Chi Xiangnuan looked at her back and rubbed her itchy nose. At this time, a text message sounded from the backpack behind him. Chi Xiangnuan took out his phone and saw a text message from an unfamiliar number.

The content of the text message is only two words - Ye Xi.

Chi Xiangnuan raised his head and looked at the Yuan Yuan in the distance.

With the back getting more and more distant, after touching his nose awkwardly, he suddenly wanted to laugh.

She went back to the basement to change her clothes, and then went back to the building to put up a small advertisement. This work must be done quickly, otherwise the door will not be able to enter after it is repaired.

When she walked back to the fourth floor with a stack of small advertisements, her footsteps suddenly stopped. Looking at the swinging small advertisements on the door, she suddenly felt a little hot for some reason.

Stepping forward with light steps, she tore off the small advertisement on the door, and rushed up to the fifth floor with something like a thief, blushing and quickly stuck to the small advertisement in her hand.

After one morning, all the places that can be posted have been filled up. The salary is settled every day, and the food expenses for the next week are settled, but the rent to be paid at the end of the month is very worrying.

If it doesn't work, please ask the landlord for a little more time, and ask if you can delay it a little longer.

Chi Xiangnuan sighed, feeling very depressed all of a sudden.

Later, when she went to work to catch the bus, she saw Ye Xi several times. Ye Xi didn't pretend to ignore her. Every time she saw her, he would wave or nod.

He is really a very responsible person, but he is too cold and has a feeling of indifference to everything.

A month later, it was time to pay the rent.

Rent, rent, last month's rent has not been paid, and this month's rent has no money to pay.

As a matter of course, Chi Xiangnuan was kicked out by the landlord, along with her pile of pitiful luggage. She stared blankly at the angry landlady, who took one of her canvas bags Throw it on the ground.

There was a crisp sound inside, this was her last piece of luggage, and the young female tenant newly recruited by the landlord stood aside, looking like she was watching a show.

I don't have any money on me, where can I go?

Chi Xiangnuan knelt on the ground to pick up the things thrown out by the landlord. It was already dark, and she was thrown outside again. There was really nothing she could do.

Fear and worry came over little by little. She gritted her teeth and organized the scattered things on the ground. When she put the things into the canvas pocket, her fingers were suddenly caught.

Cut by a sharp object, she withdrew her hand to see that the dishes in her pocket had been smashed to pieces.

This is a pink fish plate, which was once placed on an exquisite shelf. At that time, the cold white light hit its body, and the scale pattern on the outside seemed to have a breath of life, making it look exquisite and expensive.

The plate is not an unacceptable price, but it is 580 yuan, which is not as expensive as the expensive bags and shoes of my colleagues.

But for Chi Xiangnuan, the cost of a plate is beyond her cognition.

She stood in front of that plate for a long time, hesitated again and again and bought it with gritted teeth.

When she walked out of the shop with the plate in her hand, she felt a certain kind of wonderful satisfaction in her heart, as if a small corner of the unattainable life suddenly showed her a small corner, gave her a beautiful vision, and fulfilled her yearning for a certain life.

But now it was shattered, shattered thoroughly, and her hope was also shattered.

People are most likely to feel emotional when they are frustrated, and most likely to be disheartened after feeling emotional.

Chi Xiangnuan picked up a larger piece, which was the tail of the fish plate.

The tears that had been held back for a long time finally burst out, she didn't know whether to feel sorry for the plate or herself.

All kinds of people walked past her, and occasionally someone looked at her curiously, and then walked by without seeing her.

A hand suddenly stretched out, with a cold light, bringing an unreal silhouette.

The slender white fingers firmly pinched the fish tail fragment, and pulled it away from Chi Xiangnuan's hand.

Chi Xiangnuan raised his head in a daze, and saw Ye Xizheng standing in front of her in school uniform, looking indifferently at the fishtail in his hand.

Chi Xiangnuan didn't know what to say at this moment, she couldn't do anything but cry at this moment.

Ye Xi's fingers gripping the fragments suddenly loosened, and with a crisp sound, the fishtail fragments fell to pieces again.

Chi Xiangnuan was shaken by the cracking sound, and the tears flowed even more joyfully.

Ye Xi's eyes swept across the pile of luggage on the ground, she suddenly bent down, and picked up Chi Xiangnuan's suitcase.

"Come with me".

She said these three words briefly, and before Chi Xiangnuan could respond, she pulled the suitcase and turned around to leave. Chi Xiangnuan wiped away her tears, but her brain had already reacted before she could think about it, and she subconsciously picked up the bag on the ground Things followed.

Occasionally, slight sobs could be heard in the silent corridor, Ye Xiliao easily went up to the fourth floor with a suitcase, and Chi Xiangnuan staggered along with two big bags.

Ye Xi stopped on the fourth floor and opened the door with the key. After she put the suitcase in, she took Chi Xiangnuan's two bags and carried them into the room together.

Chi Xiangnuan rubbed his eyes and walked in.

Ye Xi picked up the facial tissue on the coffee table and handed it to her, she took it with shaking hands and said, "Thank you" choked with sobs.

Ye Xi suddenly asked: "Can you cook?".

Chi Xiangnuan nodded with red eyes.

"It's okay to clean up the house."

Chi Xiangnuan hummed, with a nasal sound and a bit of crying.

Ye Xi suddenly rubbed the center of his eyebrows. Chi Xiangnuan didn't know if he had an illusion, but Ye Xi felt very...happy at the moment.

"That's good, cook for two, clean up the house, so you don't have to pay rent."
