In fact, He Yan also had an identical set of clothes except for the size, but it was left in the closet and not worn.

With this change, and messing up his neat hairstyle slightly, the man's age instantly seemed much younger, and the contrast between the two when walking together was no longer as severe as the last time they went out.

However, due to their much more outstanding appearance than ordinary people, they still attracted the gazes of many passersby, especially young girls.

When getting on the bus, the man protectively put his arm around his shoulders to prevent him from being squeezed by the crowd. Relying on his good hearing, He Yan even clearly heard the excited gasps of the girls behind him.

The apartment He Yan was looking at this time was very close to A University. It was a two-bedroom, one-living room apartment with an especially spacious living room. The total area was over 100 square meters, more than enough for two adult men to live in.

This apartment was a new property that had just been completed three months ago and had only been finely decorated once. The rooms were empty and had no furniture.

The landlord who accompanied them to view the apartment indicated that if needed, they would quickly furnish it. Of course, if He Yan chose to furnish it himself, the rent would be appropriately cheaper.

Because it was a new property, coupled with the prime location, the rent was undoubtedly very expensive. Even without requiring furnishing, it was still a jaw-dropping figure. However, for the sake of this living room that could fit a huge sofa, He Yan was very tempted.

At that time, he could buy a huge and soft sofa. When not going out, he would just curl up on it to play on his phone or think, narrowing his eyes in comfort just imagining it!

However, he still politely looked up and asked for his partner's opinion: "What do you think?"

Seeing the spacious bedroom that could fit a king-size bed, Xuan Qi also felt very satisfied. With a straight face, he sincerely said: "Very good."

The moment he saw this spacious bedroom, he suddenly realized that although a small bed had the advantage of being cozy, a big bed also had irreplaceable advantages.

For example, there would be more room to roll around while hugging his partner on it.

So the two looked at each other and very harmoniously reached an agreement, deciding that this was the place.

The landlord was also very satisfied. This apartment actually had an innate flaw. Although the area was large, it only had two bedrooms, and the difference in size between the master and second bedroom was too big.

Most people who chose to rent in this area were students from nearby university towns who preferred houses with more bedrooms of balanced sizes to share. His apartment was actually not very easy to rent out.

The two were not procrastinators. After signing the contract with the landlord, they directly and decisively contacted a moving company to move He Yan's personal belongings from his rental to the new apartment, and then went to the furniture mall together to select basic furniture.

He Yan had a clear goal. Everything else could be put off, but he mainly had to choose a sofa that met his requirements first.

As for Xuan Qi, he went for the bed.

Evening, 6:30 pm.

Fu Chenhua stood in the narrow corridor and lightly knocked three times on the dark red door in front of him that already seemed to be rusting.

"Knock, knock, knock."

He was not wearing the elegant white robe from the old house, but was dressed no differently than an ordinary young man. However, his temperament was especially refined, very different from most restless young people nowadays, making people feel good about him at a glance.

There was no movement inside the house. After waiting for a minute, Fu Chenhua knocked on the door three more times, this time with slightly more force.

He was still met with a long silence.

- Strange.

According to the information found by the family, Han Ziyu's classes today only went until 4pm, and he had a personality that didn't like going out, so normally he should be at home now.

After nearly a whole day of contemplation, he still decided to sincerely come to the door to apologize.

Financial compensation was secondary - if Han Ziyu was indeed the youth who held hands with the director of the Court of Ghost Prison that day, he probably didn't lack these things - the most important thing was that the Fu family had to show their sincerity.

That's why he chose a relatively reliable time like this to show his sincerity.

But unexpectedly, it was all for naught.

Just as Fu Chenhua was staring blankly at the tightly closed door, there was a piercing sound from behind him, which sounded like it came from a long-unmaintained security door.

"Creak--"

Fu Chenhua turned his head and saw a middle-aged woman walking out of the door opposite, her eyes slightly wide when she saw him, her face showing obvious surprise, as if she didn't understand why such a well-dressed young man who was clearly from the upper class would appear in such a messy rental area.

Fu Chenhua showed a slight smile and politely asked her, "Excuse me, do you know where the person living here went?"

"That student?" Seeing him nod, the middle-aged woman smacked her lips and shook her head with a sigh, "You've come at a really bad time, he just packed up and moved away this afternoon, and there was a tall and handsome young man with him. If you had come a few hours earlier, you might have been able to meet them."

Speaking of which, she didn't know what good fortune that student across the way has encountered recently. Not only has the quality of his clothes suddenly jumped several levels, but there are also some rather distinguished people coming to see him.

Especially that young man who helped him move this afternoon—handsome and exuding confidence, far more striking than the one who just arrived. At first glance, you could tell he wasn’t raised in an ordinary family. Though he kept a stern face the whole time, his actions showed that he was looking out for that poor student next door, almost like a considerate older brother.

However, she’s lived across from that poor student for four or five months now, and never before has any wealthy relative come to visit him. How did he suddenly rise to such fortune?

Could it be that the poor student’s true identity is actually the heir of some powerful family who had been separated from them due to a misunderstanding in his childhood? Now that he’s grown, the family has found him, and because of his special status, his brothers are competing to win him over?

If that’s the case, then this young man arrived a bit late. The poor student next door has already been taken away by that tall guy.

The middle-aged woman, who’s watched countless melodramatic soap operas, let her imagination run wild. The more she thought about it, the more convinced she became that her speculation had almost touched the edge of the truth.

Fu Chenhua, deep in thought: "......"

Wait a minute. Could this “tall and handsome young man” the middle-aged woman is referring to be the Director of the Ghost Prison Division?
