At the end of August, five days before the start of school, Xiang Nan, Qi Qi and An Sheng took a bus to Hujiang.
The reason why I went a few days in advance was mainly to rent a house.
After two days of searching and comparing, Xiang Nan rented a two-bedroom house in Milan Garden near the school.
In 2002, the rent in Hujiang was still relatively cheap. This house in the downtown area of Hongkou is fully equipped with water, electricity, furniture and appliances, and the monthly rent is only 600 yuan. It can be said to be quite cost-effective.
The rent was deposited and paid three times. When paying the rent, Ansheng insisted on paying his own share.
"Ansheng, just let me pay the rent." Xiang Nan advised her. He knew that it was not easy for Ansheng to work part-time.
She works two jobs a day, cutting hair in a barber shop during the day and working as a bartender in a bar at night, earning all her hard-earned money. No different than him, he can earn thousands of dollars in royalties just by scratching his pen.
"No, I have to pay." An Sheng said stubbornly, "This way, I can live with peace of mind."
Xiang Nan had no choice but to agree. Then he moved in with Qi Qi and An Sheng.
"Great, the three of us will live here from now on." Qi Qiyue said happily, "This will be our home from now on."
"Well, that's great." An Sheng also hugged her and said with a happy smile, "But you two should be gentle at night, because I still have to sleep."
"You hate it~" Qi Qi said shyly.
…
That night, Xiang Nan and Qiyue slept together.
The two of them hummed one after another, making Ansheng next door sleepless all night.
…
On September 1st, Xiang Nan and Qiyue officially reported to the university.
With the help of their seniors and sisters, they successfully completed the report and moved into their dormitories.
After the report, half a month of military training began.
Because Xiang Nan and Qiyue were both good-looking, they became the target of attention as soon as the military training began.
In July, she was secretly rated as the most popular girl by the boys, while Xiang Nan was lucky enough to be rated as the most popular girl by the girls.
But before the boys and girls could attack them, everyone was surprised to find that Xiang Nan and Qiyue were already dating.
Every time there is a break in military training, Xiang Nan can be seen sitting with Qi Qi holding a cold drink. We also sit together at lunch and dinner, and the attitude is cordial.
When they learned that Xiang Nan and Qiyue were from the same hometown and classmates and had been together in high school, they couldn't help but suddenly realized. The tower near the water gets the moon first, and the flowers and trees in the sun are easy to spring, so they won't be unjust.
…
While Xiang Nan and July were undergoing military training, Ansheng also began to find a job for himself, and later became a hairstylist in a home hair salon.
She didn't choose to be a bartender again. Because Xiang Nan accidentally said once that he didn't like the smoky atmosphere in the bar. Just for such a sentence, she gave up her best skill.
The salary of being a hairstylist is not high, the basic salary is only 600 yuan. If you want to earn a high salary, you must rely on piece rate commissions, card sales commissions, and package commissions.
Fortunately, Ansheng is smart, has a sweet mouth and a smooth tongue, and his tongue is like a lotus flower, so his sales performance is very good. But this kind of deceptive marketing is not what she likes, and she is still thinking about changing to a new job.
…
After living in the school dormitory for half a month, Xiang Nan and Qiyue moved out after the military training.
Because living in a dormitory has many inconveniences.
As a prestigious university with a long history, Tongji University’s dormitories are also very old. They are cramped and cramped, with old beds, aging pipelines, and no independent toilets or bathrooms, which is really inconvenient;
Second, the lights in the dormitory are turned off at 11 o'clock, and the electrical appliances used have power limits. Not to mention cooking, even boiling a kettle of water with high heat can easily cause the water to choke;
The three dormitory assignments are to force people to be placed together. We all have different views, personalities, languages, living habits, and customs, so it is inevitable that conflicts will arise and make our stay uncomfortable.
Therefore, after the military training ended, Xiang Nan and Qiyue moved out and enjoyed their world together.
After learning about this, the animals in the dormitory were extremely envious.
They are still living the life of ascetics, but Xiang Nan is already singing and dancing every night, which is really enviable.
…
After moving out of school, Xiang Nan and Qi Qi went to school during the day and returned to the rental house to rest together at night.
While doing homework in July, Xiang Nan would write some articles and exchange them for money.
In addition, he will invest the money he earns in stocks.
Xiang Nan hopes to make his first pot of gold as soon as possible and complete capital accumulation while in college. When I graduate, I can enjoy life with Qiyue instead of running around in the workplace.
Xiang Nan is currently writing a campus romance, "The Best of Us". This film was created by August Changan and was officially launched in 2013.
After its release, it became a sensation and was quickly adapted into a film and television drama. It not only made celebrities such as Liu Haoran and Tan Songjun popular, but also made the Zhenhua Trilogy a shining classic on youth campuses.
Seeing the manuscript written by Xiang Nan, Qi Qi and An Sheng were both surprised and admired.
"Jia Ming, I didn't expect your article to be so good." Qi Qiyue praised.
An Sheng also felt that Xiang Nan was very talented and could write such a beautiful story.
"It's just so-so. I just feel itchy and want to write something." Xiang Nan said with a smile.
Qi Qi and An Sheng both thought he was great.
…
Subsequently, this "The Best of Us" was launched in "Sprouting".
Because Xiang Nan is already somewhat famous, the remuneration reaches the standard of 90 per thousand words.
Although it is not enough to make him rich, it is still possible to earn some start-up capital.
"The Best of Us" has a total of 240,000 words, and Xiang Nan can write about 10,000 words a day. The monthly manuscript fee is 20,000 yuan, which is a very good income.
Coupled with the income from investing in the stock market, the income is still very good.
…
Rental house, in the living room.
Xiang Nan and Qiyue sat on the sofa and watched the DVD he just bought together.
The famous horror film series, "Midnight Ring", "The Grudge", "The Old Corpse in the Mountain Village"... each one was more terrifying than the last. It made Qi Qi scream in fear and kept crawling into Xiang Nan's arms.
At this moment, the door was suddenly opened.
Qi Qi jumped up with a scream, startling An Sheng who had just walked in.
"What are you doing? What's wrong?" she asked quickly.
"It's you, it's okay." Qiyue breathed a sigh of relief, and then complained to Xiang Nan, "It's all Jiaming's fault. It's not good to buy any disc, but to buy such a scary movie. I just watched "The Old Corpse in the Village" , almost scared me to death.”
"You did it on purpose, right?" An Sheng looked at Xiang Nan and said.
Xiang Nan smiled and was noncommittal.
"Okay, don't be afraid, I'm back, I'll watch it with you." An Sheng smiled and sat on the sofa, then patted his chest, "Baby, lie down in my strong arms."
Qi Qiu smiled and lay down with her.
Let's continue watching "The Old Corpse in the Mountain Village" together.
"By the way, why did you come back so early before get off work?" Qi Qiyue asked curiously.
Ansheng's hairstylist works from nine o'clock in the morning to nine o'clock in the evening, a full twelve hours. It's only seven o'clock in the evening now, and it's not time to get off work yet.
"Don't mention it, I resigned." An Sheng curled his lips and said.
