Chapter Sixteen: Chatting

Shi Nian took Yun Nan to see the house downstairs.

It was a very spacious three-bedroom apartment. Yun Nan took a fancy to it at first glance and immediately called Fang Xi.

“Fang Xi, I’ve found a house that you will definitely like. I’ll send you some photos of it!” Yun Nan quickly took a few photos of the apartment and sent them over along with the address.

Fang Xi swiftly replied, “Yun Nan, the rent in that area is at least thirty to fifty thousand dollars. The house is nice, but I can’t afford it. My budget for rent is at most ten thousand dollars.”

She sent a big ‘sigh’ emoji.

Yun Nan hurriedly voice-called her, “Fang Xi, this house belongs to a friend of mine. He doesn’t wish to leave the house empty to collect dust, so he’s willing to rent it out at a cheaper price. It means that someone is helping him look after the house. The rent is only ten thousand dollars. I’m thinking we can pay for this place together; I want the room facing north to be my art studio. I’ll give you two thousand dollars for it, so what do you say?”

“Ahhhh!” Fang Xi screamed in delight. Yun Nan had to move the phone away from her ear.

“Forget about sharing the rent! Just take the room and use it however you like. It’s such a nice house, and it’s rented out for only ten thousand dollars? Are you sure?” Fang Xi asked.

Yun Nan confirmed, and Fang Xi eagerly urged, “Help me schedule a time with the landlord to sign the contract and move in.”

Yun Nan glanced at Shi Nian, who made a gesture. Yun Nan understood and told Fang Xi, “How does tomorrow sound to you?”

“Yes, that’s great! Yun Nan, you’re a gem. I love you to bits! You’re my lucky star! Oh, set a time for me, please! Set the time!” Fang Xi implored.

After the matter was concluded, Yun Nan couldn’t help but heave a sigh of relief.

“You’re very good to your friend. You helped her rent a house and even shared the rent payment,” Shi Nian carelessly remarked as he entered the elevator.

Yun Nan looked at the documents on her phone, and absently replied, “There was a time when I couldn’t afford food. Fang Xi was the one who supported me and kept me fed.”

“You couldn’t afford food?” Shi Nian was surprised.

Yun Nan put down her phone and smiled at Shi Nian. “That’s right. I’ve suffered a lot in the past. It’s not something that a young master like yourself can ever imagine in your entire life. In difficult times, even the smallest aid from others can be life-saving. As long as I have the ability, I keep to the saying, ‘

Those who receive drips of water during their times of need shall return that kindness with a spring.
