Chapter 31 Zheng Feng
After the call was connected, a slightly hoarse voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Hello, may I ask who this is...?"

"Hello, Mr. Zheng Feng..." Chen Yan introduced himself briefly and explained his purpose.

After Zheng Feng said he would come down immediately and the two exchanged personal characteristics to facilitate finding each other, the call ended.

Chen Yan stood at the entrance of the residential area, feeling a little anxious.

After all, the task only gave them three days, and if possible, Chen Yan naturally hoped to finish it on the first day.

Less than five minutes later, Chen Yan saw a man in his mid-thirties walk out of the residential area.

At thirty-five or thirty-six, although this age is the tail end of youth and the body is gradually entering a period of decline, one still retains a good ability to work.

But this man in front of me...

Although there was still some distance between them, preventing Chen Yan from seeing the specific symptoms on the other person's body, just from their footsteps, Chen Yan could feel a sense of "unsteadiness and fragility," as if a gust of wind could blow them away.

'White T-shirt, black shorts, gold-rimmed glasses.' Based on these physical characteristics, Chen Yan quickly identified the other person and hurried forward.

"Mr. Zheng Feng, hello, I am..."

Taking the opportunity to greet him, Chen Yan also carefully observed Zheng Feng's face.

Sometimes, your face can tell a lot.

For example, Zheng Feng's face is quite fair, but it's not the kind of fair with a rosy glow; it's just plain pale, and his skin is dull and lackluster, giving the impression of malnutrition.

At the same time, my eye bags are puffy, my lips are purple, and they are slightly peeling...

'Such classic signs of kidney deficiency.' Chen Yan pursed his lips and couldn't help but mutter to himself.

At one point, due to his irregular work and rest schedule and somewhat frequent flights, Chen Yan wondered if he might have kidney deficiency, and even went online to look up related symptoms.

He didn't match any of the symptoms, and initially thought they were just made up. But today he encountered a "perfect case".

"Mr. Chen, right?" Although he looked listless, Zheng Feng still managed a smile as he led Chen Yan into the residential area and introduced the house they were about to see.

Although Zheng Feng described the house as very nice, as if "I would never rent it out if it weren't really useless," Chen Yan lowered his expectations as much as possible after being disappointed by the previous two landlords.

However, after he entered the house and observed it for a while, he couldn't help but sigh to himself.

'Brother Zheng is a very honest person.'

……

The apartment is about 100 square meters, a typical three-bedroom, two-living room layout. The decor is mainly white, natural wood, and gray, with no fancy decorations, giving it a simple and clean feel.

Chen Yan really liked the style of the decoration. After taking a short walk around and confirming that there were no major problems, he was already planning to sign the contract.

As for Zheng Feng, he just kept introducing the topic and didn't show any impatience.

Since he was renting out the house, he had seen quite a few potential tenants, so he didn't show any disrespect to Chen Yan just because he looked young.

In fact, he believed that Chen Yan was quite likely to sign the contract.

Students are one of the main groups renting apartments at the start of the semester. Zheng Feng has met many students, and most of them are accompanied by their parents, who also inspect the apartments.

Although Chen Yan came alone, he acted with great poise and didn't overlook any important details, clearly showing his interest in the apartment. "Brother Zheng, I'm quite satisfied with this apartment. Now it's just a matter of checking the rent." After inspecting the place and finding no problems, Chen Yan got down to business.

“Mr. Chen, I’m not lying to you, the rent in this area isn’t cheap.” Zheng Feng said with a smile, “A 100-square-meter apartment like this usually costs 4500 or more… I’ll give you a slight discount, how about 4000? What do you think?”

The price was indeed quite reasonable, and Chen Yan had no intention of haggling. He simply said, "Well then, Brother Zheng, can you hold this house for me for a couple of days? If it's suitable, I'll come to sign the contract no later than the day after tomorrow."

Upon hearing this, Zheng Feng knew that Chen Yan wanted to compare prices from different vendors, but he wasn't too worried.

After all, the price he offered was among the lowest for houses of similar quality, and no matter how hard Chen Yan searched, he would have a hard time finding one with a better price-performance ratio.

"Okay, then I'll leave to you, Brother Zheng. I'll be going now."

"Walk slowly."

'Brother Zheng is a pretty good guy, but it's a pity he has a bit of kidney deficiency. Is this the tragedy of married men?' With this thought in mind, Chen Yan walked out of the residential area and continued towards his next destination.

……

Half an hour ago, in the girls' dormitory.

As soon as Lin Zhixi and Kang Le entered the dormitory, the first thing they noticed was the curious gazes from their two roommates.

"Lele, you're finally back." Zhao Shan, who was lying on the bed, turned over and exclaimed, "You're all smiles. You're getting all lovey-dovey when you see your boyfriend, aren't you?"

"Look at the smile on her face, you'd think she won the lottery." Another roommate, Wang Wu, immediately joined in.

Because Kang Le is quite outgoing, she had already gotten along well with her roommates within a few days of the start of the semester, so when her two roommates joked around, they mainly focused their attacks on her.

"Oh, it's not as exaggerated as you guys make it out to be." Kang Le retorted somewhat awkwardly, "Besides, it wasn't just the two of us going on a date. I brought Zhixi along, and he brought his good buddies. It was just the four of us having a meal together."

"Huh, it's just four people having a meal together..."

Another burst of laughter erupted...

As she laughed, Zhao Shan seemed to remember something and asked:

"Didn't you say your boyfriend's roommate went too? What did she look like?"

"Very handsome." Kang Le answered truthfully without hesitation: "His looks alone can leave a very good first impression."

"Really?" Wang Wu, who was lying down playing on her phone, sat up abruptly and exclaimed in surprise, "Handsome guy, this thing is like opening a python box - a blind box. You might not even get a gold item after ten draws. And now you're telling me you can get a double yolk egg in a single draw?"

"What kind of absurd analogy is that?" Kang Le first complained, then said, "He really is handsome. You can ask Zhixi if you don't believe me."

Both pairs of eyes turned to Lin Zhixi.

"He is indeed quite handsome." Lin Zhixi nodded, but didn't say the rest of the sentence aloud.

I don't know why, but this time when I look at Chen Yan, I feel that he looks much better than last time, but upon closer inspection, it seems that his facial features haven't changed much.

"I regret it. If I had known you were calling me, Lele, I wouldn't have refused." Zhao Shan rolled over and said "unreasonably" like a child, "I want a handsome guy, I want a handsome guy."

Kang Le didn't say anything, but simply took out his phone and silently recorded the scene.
