Chapter 1 Shared Rental(1/2)

For Zhou Yi, there is a particularly important and urgent thing that must be done before he goes to the first team to report.

That's moving.

He had to find a house to live in before the team gathered on July 2 and moved in.

Although there are many houses for rent and sale on the market, not all houses are as required by Zhou Yi.

For example, he can't live in the entire house in the city of Dortmund because he doesn't have a car. If he has to go there every day for a bus, it would be too inconvenient. He now relies on Mark's father's car to pick him up, but if he goes out alone, he can't let others pick him up?

When considering the issue of houses, Zhou Yi realized that transportation is a very important thing, so he also began to consider whether to learn driving in Germany - which professional player can't drive? If he has more money in the future, he will definitely buy a car.

But don't worry about this issue, it can be discussed later.

Now we still have to get the house done.

Due to the problem of training and transportation, Zhou Yi's accommodation can only be reduced to Braquel Town. Dortmund's training base is here. He can run directly when he goes to train. Braquel is a very, very small town. Zhou Yi once observed this town when he was taking a bus. There are only three streets in the whole town. If it is placed in China, it cannot be regarded as a "town".

In addition, because Zhou Yi lives alone, Zhou Yi doesn’t consider those three bedrooms, one living room, four bedrooms, two living rooms, and even two-story villas upstairs and downstairs - what does he have to do with such a big house alone?

However, in a small town like Bracker, there is no such type of single apartment for rent. Zhou Yi doesn't consider the houses for sale. He is now so much money, but he can't buy any decent houses.

So Zhou Yi roughly browsed the property situation in Dortmund online and found that he only had one choice - share a rent with others.

Zhou Yi is not resistant or disgusted with the matter of sharing a house with others, mainly looking at the house.

The closer the location of the house is to the training base, the better. If the training base is next door, it is the best... Of course, there are naturally no such houses.

Zhou Yi carefully browsed information about shared houses online and selected several alternative houses.

Then he sent an email to the landlords of the houses asking for rent.

The next thing is to wait.

At noon, he received a reply email.

In the email, the landlord first introduced himself, saying that they were two female college students living together. They were originally from three people, but one of them had left due to academic reasons. Now they need to share the rent and reduce housing costs, so they need to find someone to share the rent.

They have no requirements for the gender of the shareholder, nor do they have any requirements for sexual orientation. There are requirements for age, which stipulates that they must be between the age of 18 and 26. There are no requirements for occupations, and this is also specifically stated, both students and people who have graduated from society can do it.

If these requirements are met, you can reply and make an appointment for an interview.

Zhou Yi had never heard of renting a house and having to interview him, but since it was a shared rental, everyone would have to live under the same roof in the future, so there was nothing wrong with interviewing a new roommate. If you find a problem during the interview, you can also avoid any major problems in the future.

So Zhou Yi immediately replied to the email, indicating that he had time before July 2nd.

Five minutes after he replied to the email, he received an email from the landlord, telling him that she happened to be in the house this afternoon and that if Zhou Yi had time, he could come for an interview.

Zhou Yi replied again: I'll set off now.

Then he carried his bag and prepared to go out.

When Mark saw Zhou Yi leaving, he asked him, "Do you need my dad to drive you?"

Zhou Yi shook his head: "From now on, I will be completely independent. Mark. Taking the bus is also a kind of independence."

"Okay, I wish you good luck, Zhou Yi. But don't force yourself. If you really don't find a suitable house, you can continue to live here. I think you can live for a while, and the club won't really do anything to you," said Mark.

"Thank you, Mark."

※※※

When Zhou Yi took a bus to the bus stop in Brakel town, he carried a bag, a baseball cap, and a map in his hand, looking like a tourist who came here to adventure.

Based on the map and the address provided by the landlord, Zhou Yi quickly found his destination.

Unlike the single apartment he thought, this is not a small high-rise building, but a flat-rise building.

Next to the roadside, there are gardens in front and behind, but not big. There are such houses around, and occasionally there are two floors, but not many.

Zhou Yi noticed that there was a bus stop more than 50 meters away, and the traffic and environment were good.

Zhou Yi has already fallen in love with this place a little bit.

There are many cars parked on the side of the road, and they should be private cars living here. But it is not noisy. It is very quiet during the day. There is only occasionally the sound of wheels running across the asphalt road when the car passes by. However, because the traffic flow is very small, the sound is not loud.

Although the house is next to the roadside, it is not noisy.

Zhou Yi was quite satisfied with the place. He decided that if there was no problem with the interview, he would decide to make it. As for the other companies, he would give up. He was unwilling to spend all his time and energy on finding a house.

He stood outside the garden and pressed the doorbell at the gate. Soon a young girl's voice sounded inside: "Who?"

"It's me who shared the rent for the interview." Zhou Yi said.

"Oh, please come in." Then the electric door was opened and Zhou Yi walked in. When he walked to the door of the house, the door opened from inside, and a blonde girl appeared in front of Zhou Yi.

Zhou Yi was stunned for a moment, always feeling that the girl in front of him looked familiar, but for a moment he couldn't remember where he had seen it...

While he frowned and thought, the blonde girl opposite laughed: "Ha, what a coincidence, Chinese boy!"

"Do you know me?" Zhou Yi became even more strange.

"Don't you know me?" said the blonde girl with some grievance.

Seeing her like this, Zhou Yi's eyes lit up: "Hannah?"

He called out tentatively.

"I'm so glad you still remember my name, Chinese boy!" Hannah looked very happy.

"I have a good memory. I'm glad to see you, Hannah. So goodbye."

After saying that, Zhou Yi turned around and left. He was not stupid. Since Hannah was the landlord, he could guess with his knees that the two female college students who shared the rent were Hannah, and the other must be... Cortana!

Damn, I was able to find this woman in the vast crowd, and my luck was really bad...

"Eh?" Hannah had a smile on her face the other second, intending to return the gift, but the next second she was surprised to see Zhou Yi turn around and leave. She was stunned for a moment and hurriedly ran out to hold Zhou Yi: "Why are you leaving? Aren't you here for an interview?"

"I don't think there is any need to interview..." Zhou Yi, who was held back by Hannah, was embarrassed to throw away the other party, so he had to froze there.

"Why is it unnecessary? Don't worry, Cortana is not here today, she has the full authority to entrust me to interview with the tenant!" Hannah straightened her chest, which made her more conspicuous.

"No, it's not because of this..." Zhou Yi still wanted to leave, and it was really embarrassing to spend time with Cortana. Yesterday they were in the corridor of Mark's house. If they lived together, wouldn't they have a fight every day?

"What, are you afraid of Cortana? Well, I can understand that Cortana does make many boys afraid of her..." Hannah said.

"What a joke?" Unexpectedly, when Zhou Yi heard her say this, he reacted fiercely. He widened his eyes and said, "I'm afraid of her? Go!"

"If you are not afraid of her, then why are you hiding? You will leave when you see it is us." Hannah's eyes were bent into crescents with smiles.

There was some contemptuous and joking content in the beauty's smile, and Zhou Yi did feel that he turned around and left, and he really wanted to retreat.

How can you be looked down upon by beauties?

The most important thing is... I'm not afraid of her, so why should I leave? Hannah tells Cortana about this, so she won't be able to raise her head in front of that girl.

So he coughed, "Okay, let go, I won't leave."

Only then did Hanna notice that she had been holding Zhou Yi's hand, so she smiled and let go, still savoring the warmth of the time she grabbed Zhou Yi's little hand just now. Unexpectedly, she just held hands... What a pure Chinese boy!

"You're right, Chinese boy. I don't think we need to interview anymore." Hannah said with a smile, "I decided - you!"

Zhou Yi didn't expect Hanna to decide: "You just believe in my character?"

"Why don't you believe it? The Chinese boy who will be shy when holding hands is shy, but it's very safe." Hannah teased.

Zhou Yi's face turned slightly red. Now he thought about his performance just now, he was indeed a little cowardly... He defended: "It's not because of that..."

"I know, I know." Hannah nodded, "the Chinese boy who threw his first kiss at Dortmund."

"Hey, I won't be able to stay if you talk about it."

"Okay, okay." Hannah quickly raised her hand to surrender. "I won't say anything, I'll take you to see your room. I just cleaned it. Do you want to stay here tonight? I can stay with you, Chinese boy."

After saying that, Hannah even came up.

Zhou Yi quickly took a step back: "No, I haven't moved my stuff yet, I'll live again tomorrow."

Hannah saw Zhou Yi avoiding her, smiled slightly, led the way in front, and took Zhou Yi to visit his room.

"How is it, isn't it?"

Zhou Yi stood in the room, looked around, and nodded: "Yes."

He didn't have any special requirements for the room. Anyway, it was just a sleeping place. As long as there was a bed, a wardrobe, a computer, and a chair could be used. The above furniture in this room was equipped with all the lighting and ventilation, and Zhou Yi couldn't find any problems.

Standing at the window, you can also see the garden behind, which is slightly larger than the garden in front of the house. In addition to a circle of flower beds next to the wall, there is a lawn in the middle, and a small round table and three chairs are placed in the lawn.

"When the weather is good, Cortana and I will bask in the sun in the garden." Hannah said when she saw Zhou Yi stopping in the garden behind the house. "Sometimes, we will also barbecue there."

“BBQ Party?”

"No, it's just the two of us. Because... Cortana doesn't have many friends."

Zhou Yi nodded: "No surprise."

With that woman's bad temper and personality, it would be strange if her friends all over the world.

Hannah covered her mouth and chuckled: "You are deeply touched, Chinese boy."

"This is a basic understanding. In addition, Hannah, can you stop calling me a Chinese boy? I have a name, my name is Zhou Yi."

"Okay. But don't you think that calling 'Chinese Boy' would have two more words than calling 'Zhou Yi'?" Hannah blinked at Zhou Yi.

"ha?"
