Sibao drove to the new apartment.
The landlady, who lived across the hall, was already waiting. She was a plump, middle-aged woman, and when she saw that Xuan Jiayi was also plump, she immediately took a liking to her.
"I've already cleaned the room. Come, see if you're satisfied."
The apartment had one bedroom, a living room, and an open kitchen, and it was nicely decorated. Both Sibao and Xuan Jiayi were very satisfied.
"The minimum lease here is three months."
Sibao immediately paid three months' rent and a one-month security deposit.
"Let me, I can't take your money," Xuan Jiayi protested.
Sibao ignored her. "Is there anything I can help you with?"
It was mostly clothes and other personal items. Xuan Jiayi had packed in a hurry, afraid Sibao might see them. She quickly refused, "No, no, it's fine. I can handle it myself."
