The real estate agent took Lou Xi and Bai Lu to a neighborhood that looked very upscale. It's only a half-hour bus ride from here to Nan University.
But the rent must be really high...
"Mr. Li, our budget isn't that high..." Lou Xi didn't want the enthusiastic Mr. Li to end up disliking her, so she mentioned in advance that her budget wasn't that high.
Unexpectedly, Mr. Li said nonchalantly, "No worries! There's no harm in taking a look. Besides, let me tell you, the owner of this house is in the process of immigrating. They don't want to sell the house, nor rent it out to just anyone. I brought you because you seem like a decent girl."
Lou Xi and Bai Lu exchanged glances, surprised that such a good opportunity still existed.
Renting based on first impressions?
After arriving, Lou Xi found that the house wasn't just good; it was really good.
The interior was fully furnished, in other words, you could just move in with your bags.
