The housing prices in the capital were high, and so was the rent. To save money, Jing Tong could only rent a cubicle. The bedroom was only about ten square meters big, and there was only a bed, a wardrobe, and a desk. It was even more shabby than her place in Yang City.
After Jiang Yu entered the room, his eyebrows furrowed deeply.
"… Is this where you live?"
"Mm." Jing Tong pointed at the only chair in the room. "Have a seat. I'll boil some hot water for you. "
Jiang Yu didn't sit down. He watched the woman boil water with an electric kettle, and an indescribable emotion welled up in his heart.
"This place is too cramped," he said. His eyebrows were still furrowed. "If you don't want to move back to the Jiang Mansion, you should at least move to another place."
Jing Tong didn't look back. "I can only afford this kind of place. It's just a night's sleep anyway. The size of the room doesn't matter. "
After saying that, she pressed the switch to boil the water and turned around, almost bumping into the man's chest.
"Hey!" Jiang Yu hugged Jing Tong as soon as she opened her mouth.
"I have more than one property in the capital. It's empty anyway." He sighed. "Can you do me the favor and move over?"
"It's troublesome to move, and I'm living well." Jing Tong rejected him and glared at him. "Don't look like I'm pitiful!"
Jiang Yu pursed his lips and sighed again. He rested his chin on her head.
"Sorry." The man's voice was hoarse.
He could tell that the woman really didn't care. However, she wasn't like this back then. She had been a pampered young lady since she was young, and her clothes, food, shelter, and transportation were all exquisite. Who would have thought that one day she would have such low requirements for life?
It wasn't that he didn't know that after Jing Zhiyuan's accident, her situation would plummet. However, it wasn't until this moment that he truly realized what she had been through. Otherwise, how could her heart be so calm and composed?
Jing Tong could feel the man's heartache and pity, but …
"It's just a little cramped." She was speechless. "The house I lived in Yang City wasn't much better, but I didn't see you like this."
"The house you rented in Yang City was at least better than here." Jiang Yu stroked her hair. "Besides, you weren't my woman yet."
At that time, she was unwilling to bow down to him for help. Jiang Yu could understand that, but now, she still did not have such thoughts.
Apart from feeling heartache, there were also some obscure emotions that were hard to describe. He vaguely realized that even though she had agreed to be with him, she still had some reservations, so she didn't want to rely on him too much.
Jing Tong's reaction was enough to prove that his worries were right.
"Although we are in a relationship, we are still independent of each other, okay?" Jing Tong said in a disgusted tone. "What do you mean by 'your woman'? That's so disgusting!"
Jiang Yu was a little upset. He pinched her cheeks, which made Jing Tong so angry that she bit his wrist.
The man swallowed hard. "I know you don't care, but I don't want you to live in such a place."
Jing Tong became stubborn. "I won't move. What can you do to me?"
Jiang Yu paused and lowered his eyes to meet her fierce gaze.
In the end, he could only sigh helplessly. "I really can't do anything to you."
