Transmigrated as the male lead's roommate's vicious girlfriend

Ning Xi went to the bathroom in the morning and found that her period had completely ended.

When she woke up, He Kezhou was already up.

I wonder where this person went so early in the morning.

I wonder if his fever has subsided...

After brushing her teeth in front of the mirror, Ning Xi thought to herself that since He Kezhou was off today, they could put house hunting on their agenda.

She slapped her forehead.

How could I have forgotten to cancel the original owner's plane ticket to South Korea?

Ning Xi found her phone, feeling a pang of regret for the 30% cancellation fee. But then she thought, "I can get most of that back, what a bargain!"

With the money she had on her, plus the 1,600 yuan in cash He Kezhou gave her, and after deducting living expenses, she still had nearly 10,000 yuan left.

She plans to use all the money for rent.

After deducting two months' rent and taxes, He Kezhou's take-home pay for this month should be less than nine thousand yuan.

Renting a decent one-bedroom apartment in the new city would cost over 5,000, depending on the location.

Ning Xi didn't want to share a single room with anyone; sharing a room was really inconvenient.

She planned to check the neighborhood's residents' group chat for available properties.

This neighborhood offers convenient living and is located within the Third Ring Road. Transportation is convenient, with the subway just 300 meters away.

Ideally, you should find a property that's rented directly from the landlord, as this will save you on agency fees. However, it will take more time to find one.

The combination lock beeps as you enter your password.

Ning Xi continued applying sunscreen to her face, turning her head to look at He Kezhou who had returned.

He Kezhou, carrying breakfast, appeared exceptionally tall and clear in the natural light of the living room.

She felt that He Kezhou looked very different today.

The person who usually only wears black short-sleeved shirts and black trousers was wearing a white short-sleeved shirt with a cartoon panda print and black capri pants today. The clothes made his tough features look a bit soft and cute, creating a handsome, neat, and refreshing look.

The inherent coldness and oppressiveness have also been somewhat weakened.

He looks like a male college physical education student.

It was only then that she clearly realized that He Kezhou was probably no more than 22 years old.

He Kezhou placed soy milk, steamed buns, fried dough sticks, and a serving of pan-fried dumplings on the dining table.

Ning Xi didn't hold back her praise, "He Kezhou, you look really handsome today."

He Kezhou was momentarily stunned by Ning Xi's bright, sparkling eyes.

He looked down at his own clothes.

In the closet, there are several summer outfits that Ning Xi bought for him, but he has never worn them.

Because of this, Ning Xi argued with him several times and even cut up two brand-new sets of clothes.

He explained that he couldn't wear light colors to work. Ning Xi wouldn't listen and forcefully pressured him to change.

He changed at home, and when he went to the car dealership, he changed back into his black pants and black T-shirt.

Today, while looking for clothes to change into in the closet, he inexplicably took this outfit.

He Kezhou's expression softened as he was touched by Ning Xi's upturned eyes: "It's all done, come and have breakfast."

He opened the pan-fried dumplings and poured vinegar and chili oil over them.

Ning Xi smiled and pulled out the chair next to He Kezhou. Seeing that he was covered in sweat, she handed him a tissue.

He Kezhou took the tissue and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

It was a cloudy day outside, but the temperature was not low.

Ning Xi smelled the vinegar and fried dumplings in the air, and first took a sip of the soy milk that He Kezhou had placed next to her with a straw.

It's a little hot.

Ning Xi: "Ice soy milk would be nice."

He Kezhou: "You can drink iced drinks once you're fully recovered."

Ning Xi nodded like a chick pecking at rice, then deliberately asked He Kezhou, who was eating fried dough sticks, "He Kezhou, are you concerned about me?"

He Kezhou swallowed the fried dough stick in his mouth and hummed in agreement.

Ning Xi smiled even more brightly.

She reached out and touched He Kezhou's forehead.

He Kezhou didn't dodge, "The fever has already subsided."

Ning Xi marveled at his physical condition; it was truly remarkable.

It's that voice; there's absolutely no sign of it getting better.

The conversation between the two at the dinner table was ordinary and mundane, yet it created a sense of relaxation and tranquility.

Ning Xi ate one fried dumpling, but couldn't finish it.

The original owner liked to eat pan-fried dumplings, with lots of vinegar and chili. She wasn't used to eating such greasy food for breakfast.

Ning Xi stared at the steamed buns next to He Kezhou.

He Kezhou handed her the steamed bun.

Ning Xi took a bite; it was vegetarian.

Her eyes lit up.

good to eat!

Ning Xi pushed the fried dumplings in front of He Kezhou.

He Kezhou looked at her.

Ning Xi complained softly, "I'm tired of fried dumplings. Eating them for breakfast feels so oily."

He Kezhou took the chopsticks from her hand, not wasting the fried dumplings.

He informed Ning Xi of his schedule for the day, "I'm going out to look at houses today. I'll have a normal day off tomorrow, and I'll be driving for Boss Zhang all day. I'll be back very late tonight, so you can go to sleep first."

"If the house viewing goes well today, I'll take a day off the day after tomorrow and we'll move."

Ning Xi gave an OK sign. "Want me to go house hunting with you?"

He Kezhou showed Ning Xi videos of several properties he had contacted.

"You choose from the videos, and if you find something you like, I'll go and check it out. If it's okay, then we'll make a purchase."

Ning Xi thought this approach would work too.

He Kezhou might be more efficient looking at apartments by himself.

Ning Xi watched three videos of fully furnished apartments in a row and said to He Kezhou, "Not only are fully furnished apartments expensive, but they may also have tenants helping to absorb formaldehyde."

Seeing that Ning Xi was not satisfied, He Kezhou continued to search for videos in the album.

These videos were ones he had selected, but he felt that Ning Xi might not be satisfied.

He wasn't sure if Ning Xi would accept the old resettlement housing.

The area around the car dealership is an old residential area. It's not in a remote location and the transportation is convenient, but the houses are old and the renovations are dated.

He has been keeping an eye on available properties recently.

After looking at the first video in the album showing a one-bedroom apartment, Ning Xi was somewhat satisfied: "This is pretty good."

It's very clean. Although the furniture looks old, the house is very well preserved, and the layout and lighting inside are excellent.

He Kezhou didn't tell Ning Xi that the house had already been rented out by the landlord yesterday.

Ning Xi is willing to stay in older neighborhoods; this will make his apartment search more efficient.

However, he was unsure whether he could find a house like the one in the video.

He Kezhou: "There are several more videos following this one."

Ning Xi held He Kezhou's phone and continued watching the video. While he was clearing the table, she transferred 10,000 yuan to him using her own phone and quickly clicked "receive."

When He Kezhou looked over, she said to him earnestly, "He Kezhou, don't argue with me. Since you've decided to go house hunting today, it means you've already thought about asking Meng Yizhen for an advance on your salary. But I have this money on hand now, and we can use it to rent a place. When your salary comes in this month, we'll keep it for living expenses, and if there's any left over, we'll save it for a rainy day."

He Kezhou swallowed the words he was about to say about not needing her to pay for the rent, and asked her, "Do you have any money on you?"

Ning Xi returned the phone to He Kezhou, saying, "Take the cash you gave me last time for living expenses. I still have enough money in my balance to live on."

She got up, preparing to go back to her room to get the cash.

He Kezhou grabbed her wrist, preventing her from leaving.

Ning Xi insisted on going to get it.

He Kezhou pulled her onto his lap and wrapped his large hand around her waist: "I'll figure out how to cover my living expenses myself."

Ning Xi felt that He Kezhou's money was open and transparent. Every expense was accounted for, except for the portion he kept for himself.

She threatened He Kezhou: "If you don't set aside some money for living expenses, we'll have a fight today, and you won't be going out to look at houses."
