Picking Up Fragments

Jiang Siming stood up and ran to open the door.

A slender figure stood at the door.

The appearance made Jiang Siming's eyes light up.

As if seeing the girl next door described in a novel.

Her appearance did not belong to the stunning type, but it was very pleasant to look at.

A face full of collagen, lightly colored eyebrows showing a natural crescent shape.

Clear eyes, lips without lipstick but with a hint of light pink, tender like new shoots.

The hairstyle is a simple bob, very short, only reaching the neck.

The hair buns on both sides are combed behind the ears, revealing a white neck and elastic ears.

The figure is small, not tall, only about 1.65 meters.

But full of vitality!

This kind of girl only appeared in the high school classroom, the fantasy of first love in novels and comics.

Jiang Siming felt that she was enough to surpass Shen Jiayi in the movie "You Are the Apple of My Eye". If she came to film, she would be at least ten times more beautiful than Chen Yanxi.

The girl carried a large guitar on her back and dragged two heavy suitcases in her hand.

Before Jiang Siming opened the door, the girl was still whispering with the landlady Luo Jie.

"Auntie landlady, let's agree in advance, I haven't decided on this room yet. If my neighbor is too... that, I will consider changing places."

"Rest assured, girl, Auntie won't deceive you. This young man has been living with me for more than a year. He is very nice. Several tenants who shared a room with him have praised him."

Snap.

The door opened, and the two people's conversation ended here.

The girl looked up at Jiang Siming, and in an instant, the psychological defense she had built collapsed.

"How can this guy... be so handsome..."

A slight blush appeared on the fair face of the girl.

No one doesn't love beauty. Men like beautiful women, and women also like good-looking men.

This principle is universally applicable, but everyone's attitude towards appearance is different.

Some belong to the level of obsessive appearance association, as long as the other party looks good.

Any other factor of this person, even if the character is bad, can be ignored, and they are willing to be a sky dog.

But this girl is not like that. In fact, she is indifferent to looks.

It's just that Jiang Siming's appearance far exceeds the highest appearance she has ever seen, so it triggers a blush and heartbeat that has never appeared before, and she loses her composure.

"Are you the new tenant?"

Jiang Siming finished examining the girl and asked.

The girl nodded, saying, "Yes."

"Then please come in. Auntie Luo should have mentioned to you about being my neighbor and the conditions I set before renting, so I hope you don't mind," Jiang Siming straightforwardly spoke. Although the girl looked pleasing and somewhat familiar, he didn't know her personality, so he chose to address everything.

"It's alright, go ahead," the girl replied, quite understanding and even a bit happy.

She was more afraid that Jiang Siming would be indifferent and messy, indicating that he wouldn't care.

"It's not a big deal. First, cleanliness is important. I won't interfere with your bedroom, but the living room and bathroom need to be kept tidy. We'll take turns cleaning, and please keep your personal items organized."

"Sure, no problem. I'm new here, so I'll take care of the cleaning for the first month!" The girl generously took charge of housework, and Jiang Siming didn't refuse, considering it as a test.

"Secondly, unless absolutely necessary, no bringing strangers into the house. If it's necessary, we need to get the other person's consent. I'll do the same. Alright?"

Jiang Siming disliked tenants who liked to bring in a bunch of friends, making the house chaotic, even if he lived in someone else's place.

"No problem!"

"Lastly, no loud disturbances that affect others' rest."

This point made the girl a bit hesitant. She cautiously asked, "I'm studying music and practice guitar and singing in the house..."

As if afraid Jiang Siming would be unhappy, the girl immediately added, "But don't worry, I'll definitely keep the volume down! I won't play after midnight!"

Understanding, Jiang Siming agreed with a nod. Then he briefly showed the girl around the house.

Although Jiang Siming was not obsessive about cleanliness, he paid attention to basic hygiene.

After the inspection, the girl was very satisfied. She happily signed the contract, and Auntie Luo, content with the money, left.

Now only the girl and Jiang Siming were left in the house.

"How much is your rent with Auntue Luo?" Jiang Siming asked after seeing the girl give Sister Luo a considerable amount of cash.

"3500 a month, I paid for three months," the girl obediently answered.

Jiang Siming rolled his eyes, already knowing this 'bloodsucker's' nature.

"What's wrong? Is something not right?" The girl looked puzzled at Jiang Siming's expression.

"My rent is 2000 a month."

"Wow! That's so much cheaper!"

The girl showed a distressed expression, but after a few seconds, she put on a smile.

"Never mind, consider it a lesson learned. Sometimes, spending money brings fortune."

Defeated by the girl's optimistic spirit, Jiang Siming didn't say anything. He just nodded politely and offered, "You have so many things, need any help?"

"No, no, I can manage on my own."

Jiang Siming nodded and turned to go back to his room for some rest.

"Oh, by the way, I haven't introduced myself yet. I'm Wang Xinyi, a junior at the Shanghai Conservatory of Music. And you?" The girl spoke from behind.

"I'm Jiang Siming, graduated from Fudan University three years ago, currently unemployed."

"Wow, Fudan University! It's near my school. I always wanted to get in, but my grades were too bad. Can I call you Senior Brother in the future?"

"Sure."

"Thanks, Senior Brother."

Jiang Siming returned to his room, shut down his computer, and went to sleep. When he woke up, it was already dark outside.

Jiang Siming's stomach growled. He had intended to order takeout, but the sounds of cooking and women chatting in the kitchen piqued his curiosity.

Perplexed, Jiang Siming opened the door and walked out. In the kitchen, he found two figures – one was the new tenant, Wang Xinyi, and the other was an unfamiliar woman.

"Xinyi, I really can't rest easy with you living here alone. Besides, your neighbor is a man. You're so pretty; what if he has some evil thoughts?"

"Cousin, you're too imaginative. He's a Fudan University graduate and seems like a good guy, very disciplined."

"Disciplined? He's been sleeping until now?"

"Well, that's his personal matter. Don't worry about it, cousin."

"Oh, by the way, what does he look like?"

"Uh... he's... okay... quite handsome, I guess... (feeling a bit guilty)."
