To marry into the family in place of his brother? Impossible!

Song Qingci looked at Ji Xiaoya in surprise: "Are you serious?"

Ji Xiaoya said, "I'm going to get married eventually anyway, and my family might even use me for an arranged marriage. So why don't I find someone I like? Besides, apart from his background, he's really outstanding!"

Song Qingci's eyes flickered, and she unconsciously looked in the direction Jiang Jinhuan had left.

He then said, "You and him won't work out!"

Why?

"You and I are different. The Ji family will not let you marry a penniless man."

Ji Xiaoya's face darkened: "Sigh! How could I not know? I was just thinking!"

Others only see the glamorous life of children from wealthy families, but some children are meticulously raised from birth just for marriage alliances.

The Ji family's current situation likely necessitates a marriage alliance to advance their relationship further, leaving Ji Xiaoya with fewer options.

At this time, Jiang Jin Huan also returned to the Jiang family.

As soon as I entered, I saw Jiang Zhe.

Jiang Zhe glared at him with venomous eyes. "Jiang Jinhuan, I've already told you, Luo Qingyi is mine from now on. Can't you understand what I'm saying?!"

Jiang Jinhuan frowned slightly: "I'm just a designated driver, it has nothing to do with her!"

Jiang Zhe's eyes flashed with malice. "You'd better remember what you said today, or don't blame me for being impolite. Also, from now on, the Jiang family belongs to me, and I hope you leave as soon as possible!"

After finishing his sentence, Jiang Zhe turned and left without even glancing at Jiang Jinhuan's suddenly ashen face.

A cold smile played on his lips: "Hmph, this time I'll cut off any chance you have of meeting Luo Qingyi. Let's see how you'll get together with her then. She can only be mine in this lifetime!"

Jiang Jinhuan was unaware of Jiang Zhe's thoughts; his hand gripping the handlebars of the electric scooter trembled slightly.

Is Jiang Zhe trying to drive him away, not even giving him the chance to stay with his parents?

He wanted to ask his parents, but he knew it would be pointless.

Thinking of his parents' usual attitude towards him, Jiang Jinhuan silently lowered his head.

He pushed the cart back to the storage room next door.

He glanced at the small house he had lived in for nearly six years, sighed almost imperceptibly, and then began to pack his things.

There weren't many items; they were all packed into a large bag.

I've been here for several years now, and all the clothes I own don't even add up to the number of clothes Jiang Zhe changes in a month.

He took out his phone and started looking for a place to rent online.

Soon, a basement apartment for rent caught his attention. Although basements are uncomfortable to live in, they are cheap.

And it's not far from Xingyao Company.

Jiang Zhe quickly dialed the other party's number and arranged to go see the house first thing tomorrow morning.

Tomorrow is Sunday, which is a good day to move. I can start working at Xingyao on Monday.

The next day he simply took his belongings and left.

He felt there was no need to come back.

Only the nanny knew when I left. "Auntie, I'm leaving now. You don't need to save food for me anymore!"

The nanny's eyes welled up with tears as she looked at Jiang Jinhuan, who was dressed in shabby clothes.

The child has already suffered so much, why won't this family even provide a place to live?

That's a storage room, is that not allowed?

Watching Jiang Jinhuan's figure disappear, Aunt Zhang sighed, "What a tragedy!"

Jiang Jin Huan rode his electric scooter out the door, carrying several large bags of luggage on his back.

He had placed his bedding and other belongings on the back seat of the electric scooter, making him look like a refugee.

We soon arrived at the rented apartment.

But the shopkeeper's eyes gleamed with cunning as he looked at Jiang Jinhuan, who was carrying large bags and small packages. "Sorry, you can have a room, but it will cost an extra five hundred yuan per month!"

Jiang Jinhuan was stunned: "Boss, that's not what they said on the phone!"

"Hehe, there's a housing shortage right now, and more people are renting, so this is the current price. Take it or leave it!"

Jiang Jinhuan pondered to himself, somewhat hesitant, "Should I sell those stocks now? But I predict the best time to sell is in half a month..."

Jiang Jinhuan was somewhat conflicted.

The shop owner seemed to have Jiang Jinhuan completely under his thumb, and said smugly, "If you don't want to rent, then look somewhere else. You definitely won't find another place like this at this price!"

Jiang Jinhuan had no choice but to push the cart away first.

The shopkeeper sneered as Jiang Jinhuan left, "You came out with your things, obviously in a hurry to find a place to stay. You definitely won't find a better place around here! You'll be back sooner or later!"

Jiang Jinhuan pushed his cart back onto the street. He decided to go to an internet cafe to tide him over. He was starting work tomorrow, and if possible, he could apply for employee housing.

However, it might be difficult to apply for employee housing.

After all, this is the most prosperous area of ​​Jiangcheng, a place where every inch of land is precious. Only long-term employees can get staff dormitories; it's very difficult for new employees to be assigned dormitories!

Just as he was pondering this, a car slowly pulled up beside him.

The car window rolled down, and a gentle voice called out, "Jiang Jinhuan?"

Jiang Jinhuan was taken aback, turned his head to look, and saw the person sitting there. He said with some surprise, "Assistant Luo?"

Luo Qingyi looked at Jiang Jinhuan carrying so many bags and asked with a puzzled expression, "What are you doing here?!"

Jiang Jinhuan was at a loss for words and looked somewhat embarrassed.

What could he say, that he was kicked out?

Luo Qingyi seemed to realize something, her eyes showing a hint of bewilderment.

Luo Qingyi said, "Let's go get a cup of coffee!"

"This..." Jiang Jinhuan was inclined to refuse.

Luo Qingyi said, "What, you can't even spare a moment to have a cup of coffee with me? Consider it a thank you for the massage you gave me last time!"

Seeing this, Jiang Jinhuan finally nodded.

The two sat down in the coffee shop.

For a moment, the two fell silent.

Luo Qingyi observed Jiang Jinhuan with curiosity.

Jiang Jinhuan couldn't help but think of Jiang Zhe's words, which meant that Luo Qingyi had once been his wife.

But how could that be? Judging from Jiang Zhe's tone, it was as if he had been reborn.

After the coffee was served, Luo Qingyi's gaze swept over Jiang Jinhuan's handsome and resolute face.

She tentatively asked, "Are you looking for a place to stay?"

"Yes, I don't know if Assistant Luo has any connections in the rental business. Cheap is fine," Jiang Jinhuan said honestly.

A hint of surprise seemed to flash across Luo Qingyi's eyes.

She immediately said, "What a coincidence! There's a spare room in my place right now, and I'm feeling a bit stressed living alone. Why don't you stay with me?"

After speaking, Luo Qingyi looked at Jiang Jinhuan with a mixture of nervousness and anticipation in her eyes.

Jiang Jinhuan was taken aback. "This isn't a good idea, it might be inconvenient! After all, you're a girl!"

Luo Qingyi said, "What's inconvenient about it? Aren't there many mixed-gender rental apartments? I don't mind, so why should you?"

"Besides, this isn't about letting you stay for free; you'll have to pay for the room. How about a thousand a month?"

Jiang Jinhuan was taken aback; this was even cheaper than the rent for the basement.

Since they've already said that, it would seem too pretentious to refuse.

He nodded: "Okay, thank you very much!"

Luo Qingyi was very happy, then stood up and said, "I'm going to the restroom!"

Once they reached a secluded spot, Luo Qingyi immediately made a phone call: "Xia Caiwei, quickly tidy up your room at my place and move back!"
