Why is the Bright Moon Shining? - Chapter 30
I didn’t go home for the winter vacation, and I don’t plan to go back during the summer vacation. Xu Can called his grandmother, transferred 2,000 yuan to the bankbook, and told him that he was going to be a tutor for the students. Grandma answered twice and hung up the phone.
Xu Can was busy moving out of the dormitory.
In the third year of the next semester, her studies are much easier than that of the second year. She is going to find a company for a long-term internship.
Anyway…it’s natural to rent a house off-campus.
In the house that had just suffered a fire, the landlord was desperate to renovate, paint the walls, and renovate the floor. All the furniture in the room turned into rubbish, and half of those in the living room were depreciated to the brink of being scrapped.
The most troublesome thing is that a good house has become a haunted house.
Originally, I was ready for at least half a year. Unexpectedly, only two weeks later, a tenant came to the door.
After some phone calls, I took them to see the room.
Before signing the contract, the landlord’s aunt couldn’t bear to see her appearance as a well-behaved student: “Do you really want to rent it now?” Friendly advised, “If you want to come back at the beginning of the year, it will be good, and now I will rent it to you, I’m so sorry.”
Xu Can was surprised: “Auntie, your price is more than half cheaper than the market price. I want to sign for another two years.”
“You little girl is also bold,” the landlord said with a sighed expression and pushed the contract. “Then you can sign it. You can rest assured about the electrical wiring and so on. There is no problem. You can find me again if you have anything.”
Xu Can nodded and smiled, and quickly signed the contract.
The house is more than 100 square meters, and the location is good. The rent is only 28,000 yuan for a whole year. If all the decorations are in place in a few months, there will definitely be a lot of people rushing to set up.
These days, who cares whether it is a haunted house or not, no matter how fierce it is, there is no scary house price. Poor ghosts are ghosts too.
Xu Can signed the contract and moved in the next day. In fact, the house is far from being as miserable and pitiful as the landlord’s auntie said. Except for the intractable places such as the window sill gap, which are dark and dark, everything else is normal.
She got her own medicine and controlled the excessive formaldehyde in the house to a reasonable range.
Buy a new bed, tidy things up.
On the balcony, light-colored wooden trapezoidal shelves are placed with flowers and plants, green radishes dangle from the highest point, and there is a purple sand mud tank at the bottom. A black turtle with a shell the size of a coin, with its pointed tip hanging on the water surface of a large purple sand mud tank, patted the green dill branch curiously.
The tank was given by an old uncle in the flower and bird market who saw her beautiful appearance and bought a plant as a gift.
Xu Can bought another tortoise to keep inside.
Standing on the balcony, she saw the stacked clouds on the horizon, slowly fluttering, silently and firmly following the wind. With the golden afterglow of the sunset, the setting sun is slightly slanted, and the small scenery in this corner also changes.
The room was still empty, so Xu Can first dressed up the balcony beautifully.
Not that, the person on the opposite side can see this balcony.
In order to avoid being unnatural, Xu Can didn’t ask when she would come back.
Two days ago, I deliberately said about the move in the circle of friends, and I posted a few messages in a row. I don’t know if she saw it.

Before Tong Mingyue went abroad to hold that academic seminar, the house opposite the door was still being renovated.
She dragged her suitcase and lowered her eyes, still thinking about several points worth scrutinizing the thesis data in her mind. When the elevator opened, I was distracted and thought, whether the neighbor’s renovation is over.
The moment the elevator door opened, Tong Mingyue glanced and found that the little girl who was waiting outside was very familiar.
Look at each other for a few seconds.
“…”
“…”
Tong Mingyue raised her eyebrows.
She had a suitcase in her hand and remembered to get out of the elevator first.
Xu Can was holding the garbage bag, stunned, frowning, and wide-eyed unexpectedly. blinked.
“Tong…Teacher Tong?”
Xu Can’s surprised expression came from the bottom of his heart.
She needs to know that she can meet up by throwing garbage downstairs, and she will never walk out the door and press the elevator when she dresses casually.
However, the surprise of being able to see Tong Mingyue just by pressing the elevator made her turn her eyes for a second, and then she restrained herself.
She lowered her eyes, stared at her suitcase, and said in a surprised tone, “Huh? Just came back… Did you come to see me?”
Tong Mingyue: “…”
Silence for a few seconds.
She took out the key in a leisurely manner, turned the key ring around her fingertips in half a circle, and smiled, “I just got off the plane.”
His tone was milder than usual: “It’s a coincidence that my home is here, classmate Xu Can.”
Xu Can subconsciously felt guilty.
She kept a pure and innocent smile, with a little surprise: “…” After a few seconds, she asked in a tone that seemed to have guessed something, “Isn’t it… Have you also worked in X’s chemical laboratory? Technical advisor?”
Tong Mingyue said, “No.”
Xu Can “ah”: “…Well, I’ll say it shouldn’t be so coincidental.” First hint that it is not a coincidence that the two live next door.
Xu Can explained: “I was going to do an internship at X’s chemistry. I was looking for a rental house and found that it was very close to here, only two stops away. So I moved out of the school, and I won’t be living in the next semester.”
Xu Can pointed to the room opposite her: “I live there…”
Then he bent his eyes, his eyes were bright, and gave her a huge bright smile: “I haven’t seen any movement on the opposite side for several days. I heard that the landlord said that it is a resident, and I was worried that it would be a strange person…”
“It turned out to be Teacher Tong, that is simply the best neighbor in the world!”
Tong Mingyue raised the corners of her lips, as if something had melted.
The smile on his eyebrows also softened. He turned his face away, inserted the key into the door lock and said, “That’s fine. I’ll take care of you in the future.”
“…Little neighbor.”
After the words fell, he entered the door with a trolley case.
Xu Can’s heart thumped, and he pressed the elevator button again.
In fact, I rarely lie, so I’m not sure whether the carefully decorated true feelings will be exposed by the acting skills…a little bit.
Carrying the trash, go downstairs to throw it away, then turn around and enter the building.
Looking at the mirror in the elevator room, she felt that although she was dressed casually but not sloppy, she thought that she had to update her Moments. Let Guo Xiaoya sing double reeds with her in the comments to improve the authenticity.
She felt a little relieved.
Who knew that as soon as the elevator door opened, Tong Mingyue was seen again.
She was leaning against the door halfway, holding her arms, her lips curled up with a smile that was not a smile. Wearing a white shirt and straight black suit pants.
Hearing the movement of the elevator, he looked up at her.
Xu Can: “…”
Looking at her, she heard what Guo Xiaoya had said in the dormitory before: “Sitting in the police station… That look of aloof and abstinence.”
Don’t rely on imagination, this is it.
Although she didn’t look at her coldly with the eyes of the rogue, it was a little different from the usual gentle and watery appearance if she wanted to laugh or not. I haven’t seen him for more than ten days.
Xu Can’s heart jumped again because of her.
She is also guilty, and feels that under her dignified and gentle appearance, she really has some awe-inspiring and inviolable temperament.
Tong Mingyue: “I’m going downstairs so late.”
Xu Can: “Why are you murdering me…”
Tong Mingyue: “…?”
Xu Can pursed his lips.
She blurted out the coquettish words subconsciously, and regretted it a little. She quickly changed the subject and said with a smile: “I’m just going to throw a garbage, waiting for me? Do you want to invite me in and sit down?”
Tong Mingyue looked at the door and seemed a little curious: “I want to ask, can I go to your house for a sit?”
Xu Can’s own living room was still empty, he shook his head, and when he refused, he turned into a coquettish expression on his lips: “…I’ll just sit at your house, my neighbor?”
Tong Mingyue: “…”
After half a second, he looked at her helplessly, showing a faint smile: “Okay, please come in.”
Turn sideways to open the door.
Xu Can didn’t expect to come to visit so soon.
Sure enough, the opportunity is earned by one’s own efforts and hard work. It’s true what the book says.
She bent her eyes and followed Tong Mingyue into the door.
The two rooms should have the same structure, but after the decoration, the styles are completely different. After the entrance, the dark gray carpet and leather sofa in the living room, the open kitchen and the bar, and the paintings and calligraphy on the walls are all quiet and elegant.
The lights were dim, and Tong Mingyue turned on two more headlights.
“What would you like to drink?” Wanting to entertain her, Tong Mingyue remembered as she walked in front of the refrigerator, “I only have mineral water here…”
Xu Can smiled, “I’m not thirsty.”
Sitting at the bar, looking at her suitcases still in the living room, “Do you want to organize things first?”
“Not urgent.”
Xu Can pointed to the huge cardboard box that stood out in the corner, and asked curiously, “What is that over there?”
Tong Mingyue thought about it and said: “The cabinet at the door was broken before, and the things that were nailed to the wall had to be removed by someone. I felt it was a little troublesome, so I bought a plastic self-assembly for the new cabinet.”
Xu Can nodded, thinking of what Li Wei said about her cabinet being blackened, he converted the time in his mind, and asked, “Is there no time to install it yet?”
“…”
Tong Mingyue slanted her eyes slightly, showing a rare twisted expression, and hesitantly said, “…the pretense failed before.”
“If you’re in a hurry, leave it there first.”
It turned out to be a housework idiot.
Xu Can smiled secretly, thinking about what kind of work to install a cabinet, jumped off the bar and said, “I’ll do it, the installation manual is still in the box, right?”
Tong Mingyue wanted to stop her, but Xu Can obliged to do it directly.
The installation instructions are indeed complicated, but not terribly difficult.
Xu Can sat on the carpet in the living room, carefully assembling it, and he finished installing half of the cabinet.
Tong Mingyue leaned beside her, flipped through the assembly instructions that Xu Can had not read for a long time, and said from time to time how inaccurate the step-by-step diagram here was. Kind of complaining.
Xu Can couldn’t help but want to laugh.
He pursed his lips and said with a careful look of work: “How can ordinary people think so much? According to the simplest method, if they can’t pretend to be able to study carefully what went wrong…”
“Hey,” Tong Mingyue laughed suddenly, “I’m so proud of being able to fit in a cabinet.”
“Ah… no.”
Xu Can shook his head.
Tong Mingyue looked at her, her dark eyes reflected the soft smile of the light, but she didn’t smile. Suddenly he stretched out a finger and tapped the small dimple on her cheek.
The pads of her fingers touched her soft and delicate skin, slightly cool. She quickly stopped.
Xu Can was stupid for half a second.
When she installed the drawer, the corners of her mouth were already raised, and she was unconscious.
