After their confessions were rejected, they regretted it for the rest of their lives.

Chapter 97 Tachibana Azusa Takes the Initiative

Deep down, Zhou Juzi feels somewhat inferior to Xia Weichan, mainly because she feels she owes him a lot.

As a result, in the girl's instinctive perception, the relationship between the two was always unequal, which is why she never had the courage to commit to a romantic relationship.

He had to repay Xia Weichan the money, and he would definitely have to doubling it, since besides the money, he had helped him in many other ways and rescued her from the mire.

She even felt a sense of security from Xia Weichan that Zhou Juzi had almost forgotten.

The girl had almost forgotten how she lived alone before she met Xia Weichan.

If she were to go back to what she was like half a month ago, Zhou Juzi probably wouldn't even dare to imagine what would happen...

People who have been taken from the ice and snow to a warmer environment for a period of time cannot bear to return to the cold environment they once were.

Therefore, she will try her best to hold onto that warmth.

The contract will take some time to be finalized.

Xia Weichan originally wanted to find a place for Zhou Juzi to live alone, hoping to have others do the work so she wouldn't have to worry about it. She wanted to arrange it for someone in the company who was in charge of her personal life. However, Zhou Juzi didn't seem to like it. In addition, Xia Weichan had said in the morning that she would find her a place that was closer to her own home and more convenient.

Although Xia Weichan didn't know the exact definition of "convenience" in Zhou Juzi's words, judging from the context, it should mean that he happened to pick up the girl on his way from home to the artist's company. In that case, renting a room in his apartment would be enough.

The apartment itself offers good privacy and is located in a high-end neighborhood.

Xia Weichan let Zhou Juzi get into the car with him, and then sat in the driver's seat. The first thing he did was to remove the bird's feathers; he had disliked them since morning.

After the feathers split and stick together, the bird feathers look rather unsightly.

He has a kind of perfectionist attitude towards birds, and Xia Weichan doesn't particularly like their unattractive feathers.

Seeing his serious expression, Zhou Juzi suddenly asked, "Do you really like birds?"

"It's not just a normal liking."

Xia Weichan spoke very seriously about this, saying that even the slightest hesitation would be a dereliction of duty for a birdwatcher.

"So...do you like it?"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Juzi could tell the genuine feeling of liking in his tone.

A strange, bittersweet feeling welled up inside me, like being jealous of someone who is your lover but whose boyfriend is thinking about other girls...

Zhou Juzi shook her head, feeling that her current emotions were inexplicably welling up.

This is just Xia Weichan's preference.

"Um..."

'

The girl suppressed her lingering thoughts, her eyes sparkling, and looked up to ask, "By the way...where do you live?"

"Green Lake Apartments, Building 2, 5th floor."

Xia Weichan said nonchalantly, since he had already decided to let the girl find a place nearby, Zhou Juzi would find out where he lived sooner or later anyway. However, he still wanted to emphasize, "I have many apartments for rent, so your new address will be in that apartment, which will be more convenient..."

"?"

Zhou Juzi's eyes lit up slightly.

I initially thought "nearby" meant a nearby residential area, but it turns out Xia Weichan found her a place within the same residential area...

Is it a building?

"no."

Xia Weichan glanced at her, Zhou Juzi's excitement was almost overflowing. "He definitely wouldn't dare let this guy live too close to him, otherwise, Xia Weichan could foresee many chance encounters afterward."

Besides, Zhu Xuening knows where he lives and has even visited him. If she were seen there, it would be...

'

""

Depend on!

Xia Weichan almost forgot about this.

If Zhou Juzi were to live in the same neighborhood as me, what would happen if Zhu Xuening came looking for me later?

I need to find some time to specifically talk to that little calico cat about it...

But I certainly can't say that now...

Xia Weichan called the apartment's rental office and told the manager about her interest in renting the apartment. Because of the registration process, the manager responded very positively.

After listening to the voice on the phone until it ended, Zhou Juzi asked curiously, "It seems that many people I've met have been very nice to you?"

"It's very simple. Because I can bring benefits to the other party, when you become famous in the future, the attitude of the people around you will gradually become more respectful."

"oh..."

From their daily interactions, Zhou Juzi knew that Xia Weichan liked money, but he wasn't completely materialistic. He was also quite extravagant with his daily expenses, as if he simply liked the feeling of being carefree.

"Back then, the relationship contract you made me sign... was it because you didn't like anyone interfering in your life?"

"I guess so."

Xia Weichan didn't answer much. The real reason was that the first three playthroughs had exhausted his patience for romance, and since Zhou Juzi had accepted the confession from the very beginning, he decided to skip the romance route altogether.

There were just some minor mishaps...

'

""

Hearing the answer, Zhou Juzi seemed to be deep in thought, and her calves under the seat began to tremble involuntarily.

She hesitated, looking at Xia Weichan as if she were making a serious vow, and whispered, "I... won't interfere too much with your freedom..."

Summer Cicada:

'

'

When did I ask you that?

That's a bit of a nonsensical statement.

However, he also hoped that Zhou Juzi would do as she said and not interfere too much in his life.

He didn't say much, but silently drove to his apartment and said, "Get out of the car."

"oh oh..."

Some apartments also function as guesthouses, with complete facilities. Because I called in advance, the process was quick, and I could check in that same day.

Zhou Juzi deliberately chose a room in Building 3 that was close to Xia Weichan's floor. After completing the formalities, she showed the room to the girl.

Although she has already paid the deposit, Zhou Juzi still needs to go back to her school dormitory tonight to retrieve her luggage before things are truly settled.

Move over here.

Moreover, because the girl came from the countryside and lacked experience living in an apartment in the city, Xia Weichan deliberately spent some time explaining to Zhou Juzi, who didn't know how to use certain smart home appliances.

During this process, the girl said things like "It's so troublesome" quite often.

However, she still carefully followed Xia Weichan's instructions and operated the equipment. By the time Zhou Juzi learned how to operate it and left the room, it was almost dark.

"You should have the property management's phone number now. Call them if you need anything..."

'

""

As Zhou Juzi listened to Xia Weichan's instructions on the way downstairs, her mind was not actually on his words. Her beautiful eyes kept wandering around, and her attention was mainly focused on finding the apartment where Xia Weichan had mentioned he lived.

It's not far; you can basically walk across the building and around the corner.

She has now secured a favorable position and is much closer to the person she likes.

As I got into the car, I heard Xia Weichan say, "Next, we'll go back to school, pack our luggage, and check in tomorrow."

Zhou Juzi didn't want to end her time alone with Xia Weichan too soon. She recalled the afternoon she bought the guitar a while ago, the time they spent alone together on a date.

Xia Weichan had indeed been neglecting her back then, and she had even felt bad about it all night. But now, Zhou Juzi felt that things might be better than last time.

Thinking this, the girl gently pressed her thighs together, her tone slightly coquettish, and cautiously said, "I haven't had dinner yet..."
