Chen Fan squatted on the steps in front of his dormitory building, taking a rest while thinking about what to do next.
He now has two options.
First go to Ma Xiaoshuai. This guy's home is in Yunhai. You can stay at his house.
Second, go to a hotel.
Of course there is a third way, which is to go to the Starry Sky Internet Cafe opposite the school and stay in the office.
Thinking of this, Chen Fan felt regretful.
If I had known, I would have installed a single bed in the office in advance.
It's too late to regret now, so I can only go out first.
So Chen Fan could only drag two suitcases and huff out of the school.
Walking out of school for at least half an hour gives me a headache just thinking about it.
Ma Xiaoshuai's house couldn't go, and Chen Fan didn't want to cause trouble to others.
So he planned to stay in a hotel.
I will stay in the hotel for three days and wait for the dormitory building to open before moving back.
But when he reached the campus bulletin board, Chen Fan suddenly changed his mind.
Because he saw a rental advertisement posted on the promotion.
It said that there is a house of 85 square meters with two bedrooms and one living room for rent.
What surprised Chen Fan was that the house was located on the campus of Yunhai University.
Chen Fan understood immediately.
There is only one situation where you can have a house in the school, and that is the teachers' apartment building.
The person who posted this rental advertisement should be a teacher from Yunhai University.
It is also written above that it has complete water, electricity, heating, fans and air conditioning, so you can move in with your bags.
To be honest, Chen Fan was a little moved when he saw this advertisement.
In fact, he had considered moving out of his dormitory and renting a house outside.
It's not that he doesn't want to live with the brothers in the dormitory.
But according to Chen Fan's plan, this year he will prepare to make efforts on the Internet.
When the time comes, I will need a computer, and I will need to write programs and codes frequently, which is definitely inconvenient in the dormitory.
Originally, Chen Fan was considering renting a house in the community opposite the school.
But now, seeing that there was a rented house in the teacher's apartment, Chen Fan was a little moved.
After hesitating for a moment, Chen Fan decisively dialed the number above.
The phone rang several times, and the answer turned out to be a pleasant female voice.
"Hello, I just saw your advertisement for renting a house. I would like to inquire about the house."
"Are you a boy?"
The woman on the other end was obviously stunned for a moment, as if she was a little surprised.
Chen Fan was even more surprised.
"Isn't it okay for boys? I see you didn't say it's only for girls."
The woman explained: "Sorry. I may have forgotten to write it."
"My house is a bit special. I plan to rent it to girls first..."
Upon hearing this, Chen Fan immediately said: "I understand. Sorry for disturbing you."
"Wait a minute!"
The woman suddenly called out to Chen Fan, as if she was having a psychological struggle.
It took a few seconds before he spoke.
"Um...are you sure you want to rent this house?"
Chen Fan couldn't laugh or cry: "I have to see how the house is before I can decide whether to rent it or not, right?"
The woman was a little embarrassed.
"Are you at school now?"
"Yes, I'm here on the notice board."
"Then can you wait for me for half an hour? I'll rush back in half an hour and take you to see the house."
Chen Fan smiled and said, "No problem."
After hanging up the phone, Chen Fan thought for a while and simply dragged his suitcase towards the area of the teachers' apartment to the east.
The so-called teachers' apartment is actually a matter of arranging accommodation for teachers. The school directly allocated a piece of land in the undeveloped area to the east of the campus, and then built more than a dozen small multi-story buildings.
These houses are not for sale to the public and are only sold to the teachers of the school at internal prices.
Chen Fan has been in college for almost half a year, and this is his first time coming to the teachers' apartment.
To be honest, the environment here is really good.
Quiet.
A gray Hui-style wall separates the teachers' apartment from the campus. On one side is the apartment building, and on the other side are the basketball court and badminton court.
Because he didn't know which building the other party lived in, Chen Fan had to stop at the door of the apartment and watched several graduate students playing basketball in the snow in the distance.
More than twenty minutes.
A woman wearing a white down jacket came here riding a bicycle.
What a beauty.
Even if the other party is wearing a down jacket and a wide hat, Chen Fan can still tell that the other party is a beauty.
"Are you going to rent my house?"
"Yes. My name is Chen Fan."
Chen Fan introduced himself with a smile.
The woman glanced curiously at the suitcase Chen Fan placed at her feet.
Chen Fan quickly explained: "That's it. I came early and the dormitory building hasn't opened yet."
"I originally planned to stay in a hotel outside, but I happened to see your rental advertisement on the notice board."
The woman nodded and said, "Follow me."
She led Chen Fan all the way to the front of one of the buildings. The woman took out the key and opened the unit door, and Chen Fan dragged the suitcase in.
"Just put the box here for now. I'll go up and take a look first."
The woman was on the third floor. To be honest, Chen Fan was a little stunned when he entered the room.
Because he originally thought it was an ordinary house with two bedrooms and one living room of more than 80 square meters.
As a result, after entering the door, he discovered that this was actually a duplex building.
The house has an attic inside.
It's just that the stairs to the attic are inside the room.
Go up the stairs on the side of the living room, and the floor above is the attic.
Moreover, the eighty square meters, two bedrooms and one living room mentioned in this woman's advertisement is only the area downstairs.
Not counting the loft area upstairs at all.
This surprised Chen Fan.
"You...are only renting this part downstairs? The loft upstairs..."
"I don't want to rent the loft, I still have to live on my own."
Chen Fan was stunned again.
"You still want to stay?"
Chen Fan understood immediately. No wonder he called someone before and said he wanted to rent the house to a girl.
There is still this layer of relationship in the relationship.
It seemed that he was aware of Chen Fan's embarrassment. The woman took the initiative to explain.
"You can rest assured about the house."
"This house belongs to my parents. They are retired teachers at the school."
"But recently my mother was hospitalized and needed money for surgery. That's why I wanted to rent out the house."
Chen Fan somewhat understood.
"But you said you planned to rent it to girls..."
The woman interrupted Chen Fan, "What do you think? Do you want to take a look first?"
"If you really want to rent it, I can rent it to you."
"But I have a condition. The rent is deposited for one month and must be paid for one year."
When saying this, the woman pursed her lips, obviously not daring to look at Chen Fan.
Chen Fan understood immediately.
It seems that this woman is really short of money.
They even put forward stringent requirements of paying one year's salary.
No wonder they don’t rent out the attic for such a big house. Instead, they rent out the largest floor of the house, because this way they can collect more rent.
"Let me see the house first."
Chen Fan walked back and forth around the house.
To be honest, although the house is a bit old, it is well maintained, and it can be seen that the owner takes good care of it and loves to keep it clean.
The room was spotlessly clean and everything was arranged in an orderly manner.
Most importantly, there is a network cable interface in the bedroom.
These days, houses with network cable interfaces are rare.
After walking around, Chen Fan really liked this house.
The woman explained: "Although the house is quite old, my parents take good care of it."
"As you can see, there is basically no damage, and the furniture is all available. You can move in with your bags."
Chen Fan turned to look at the other party.
"You haven't said yet, how much does it cost to rent this house per month?"
"Seven hundred."
Chen Fan frowned immediately.
"Expensive."
