Section 5, it is always you
"What are we discussing?" The aged voice from over there was always calm and unhurried
Of course, there is a line of small print below, stating that co-tenants must have a legitimate occupation and no undesirable habits
"No, no, it's not necessary." Ye Feng sighed and hurriedly shook his head, saying, "I interviewed with two companies today, both of which said I have potential in sales. There is another company that wants to hire me as a sales director, but I know my own limitations and declined the offer." After speaking for a while, he noticed that the other party had no reaction and couldn't help but ask, "What are you thinking about?"
The large cities nowadays are indeed quite crowded, with everyone striving to squeeze into City S. It is not only difficult to buy a house, but even renting one is extremely challenging. As night falls, Ye Feng has already resolved to spend the night in the park with his luggage. However, he did not expect that there is always a way out. By chance, he looked up and saw a white paper posted on a utility pole. The font was fine, but fortunately, his eyesight was quite good; he could see better without his glasses than with them. The paper simply stated: looking for a roommate, a single room for rent in a three-bedroom, two-living room apartment, with a monthly rent of 500, including water and electricity.
I think you not only have the potential for sales, but also the potential for boasting. After saying that, the communication was already cut off
Uncertain whether she was in a hurry or if there were simply too many people, it was inevitable that there would be some jostling. There were always a few ill-intentioned individuals trying to squeeze through, hoping to take advantage, but she skillfully evaded them. Ye Feng, however, was different; when others saw him, most kept their distance, fearing that he might bump into them
"Let's go take a look first." Ye Feng felt a bit delighted, secretly chuckling to himself, thinking that all the requirements were prepared just for him, and that others were not even qualified to compete for it. He took out his phone and made a call, praying to Lord Guan that the house had not been rented out. A woman answered the phone, her voice crisp. Upon hearing that Ye Feng was coming to rent the house, she informed him that it was still available, and as long as he brought his luggage over, he could move in at any time.
For example, if you disappear for a few months, I will treat you to a meal? Ye Feng felt distressed in his heart, thinking that he was being foolish.
"That is also true," the woman said with a look of disdain. To emphasize her contempt, she nearly spat in Ye Feng's face.
The other party fell silent for a while, and when Ye Feng thought he had gone mad with anger, he finally replied again, "Do you need my help finding a job?"
The documents were scattered all over the ground, and passersby walked over them as if they were blind, leaving a large shoe print on several job application materials. Ye Feng could not step on the application materials to walk past, so he had to stop. After a moment of thought, he bent down to pick up some documents for Xu Shuting.
Ye Feng dropped two more documents and fled in a panic. He had to carry a briefcase every day, dressed impeccably to speak with clients, humbling himself like a grandson. He would rather die than do that. When he left, he saw Xu Shuting, who was walking towards the door with a thick stack of documents. He followed her at a leisurely pace, not out of a desire to stalk her, but because there was only one way out.
The red light indeed flashed on and off, and Ye Feng pressed the answer button irritably, "Are you annoying?"
A young man hurriedly grabbed his phone and rushed out, most likely having received a call from a potential employer. It was extremely noisy here, as if thousands of flies were buzzing around your ears!
Ye Feng stared blankly at the all-purpose NPC for a long time, then curled his lips and said: "Nonsense!"
Ye Feng put down his phone, picked up his luggage, and walked away briskly, fearing that if he were even a moment late, someone might seize the opportunity before him
After some thought, I finally went to retrieve my luggage. The landlord values money over people. Although my belongings are not worth much, it would still cost several hundred yuan to replace them. Upon arriving at my new place, I saw my luggage standing proudly at the door, eagerly awaiting its owner's return. However, the iron gate now bore a stranger's face, maintaining the same stern expression!
"Buy me one," the girl said in a sweet, charming tone, her waist as wide as a bucket.
Ye Feng made five copies of the documents and finally submitted one. However, he has not yet found a security job that he desires, which inevitably leaves him feeling somewhat disheartened. Nevertheless, this does not mean he is without merit; although there are no other positions related to *illustration* and *books* available, at least two insurance companies were very enthusiastic, actively greeting him, inviting him to sit down, and asking him various questions, including whether he was interested in visiting their company.
If it were someone else, they would most likely confront the landlord, but Ye Feng obediently picked up his luggage and handed the keys to the landlord, thus beginning a life of wandering in search of a new home
A couple walked by, curiously glancing at Ye Feng, "Looks like a new model of a smartphone"
Ye Feng certainly does not believe that he has any undesirable habits, and he has always engaged in legitimate professions; he is simply currently unemployed
Thank you. Xu Shuting did not lift her head, quickly organizing the materials, even collecting those with a few footprints without hesitation. It was evident that she took this recruitment very seriously. However, when she saw the pair of dusty leather shoes, she paused for a moment. The instant she looked up and saw Ye Feng, she almost blurted out that famous mistranslation in English, how old are you
Is that so? Ye Feng replied nonchalantly, "But I like it!"
... ...
After a moment of silence, he said, "Why didn't you let me help you find the whereabouts of the peeled white skin yesterday? Don't you know that you are using the most foolish method?"
By the time he emerged from the talent market, Ye Feng could no longer see any beautiful women; all he saw were dinosaurs. Shaking his head, he suddenly had a change in expression and took out that peculiar item again. Ye Feng referred to it as the "Universal NPC." Of course, given Ye Feng's current level of English in the suburbs of London, he could not have invented such a creative name. However, he did not need to think too hard, as the words were clearly printed on it. As for what NPC meant, he was too lazy to look it up.
"At first glance, it's clearly a knockoff brand." The man scoffed, "Look at him like that; how could he afford any luxury brands?"
As the door creaked open, an old face emerged, lined with wrinkles. Ye Feng sighed, realizing he had misjudged the situation; this was not a young girl, but rather her grandmother. Nevertheless, the smile on her face remained, radiating kindness. However, the elderly woman stared at Ye Feng with a scrutinizing gaze, coldly asking, "Who are you looking for?"
Upon arriving at the rental place, the environment turned out to be quite pleasant, and the air was very fresh. However, the mosquitoes buzzed like bombers, which was somewhat of a flaw. The building was old-fashioned, without an elevator, and the room was on the fifth floor. It was a piece of cake. Ye Feng carried his luggage and rushed up to the fifth floor without even panting. After setting down his luggage, he adjusted his tie, spat into his hand, and ran it through his hair as if it were hair wax. Taking a deep breath, he finally knocked on the door. After all, she was a girl, and one must always make a good impression!
Originally, I planned to find a job before considering the issue of renting a house. However, it has now become somewhat urgent. Ye Feng sighed, realizing he could no longer afford to hesitate. He must find a place to stay today; otherwise, he would have to take his luggage and set up a makeshift bed under the overpass with the homeless. Glancing at the time on his watch and the library clock, he noted that there were still four hours left, which made him feel a bit anxious.
Ye Feng ignored this attitude, likely out of numbness. Why care so much about others' opinions? It won't add any weight. "Hermit, can we discuss something?"
With a loud "pa da," all of Xu Shuting's materials fell to the ground. She let out a soft exclamation, not the typical shriek one might expect from a woman. She shot an annoyed glance at the young man, who, without looking back, rushed out. Clearly, at that moment, a job was far more important than offering an apology.
Why is it always you
Of course, our young master is merely a bit anxious. After he finishes his meal and has a cup of tea, there will be only about two hours left. Ye Feng glanced at the watch and sighed, feeling somewhat nostalgic for the recluse. At least he was omniscient, knowing a little about everything. However, he would not take the initiative to contact him, for with his presence, one feels insignificant.
Ye Feng clapped his hands, seemingly pleased with his contributions, waiting for the beautiful woman to invite him for tea. Unexpectedly, the woman shot him a glance and pointed to the ground beneath his feet. It was then that Ye Feng noticed there was another item on the ground. Once that item was in her possession, the woman said in a voice barely louder than a mosquito's, "Thank you." She then turned and left, leaving Ye Feng standing there in a daze like a wooden statue.
