There were usually many such rental rooms near the university, single rooms with kitchens and bathrooms, very small and unfurnished. After putting a bed in the room, there was basically no space left, but the advantage was that the rent was cheap. In addition, transportation and shopping around the university were very convenient, and the prices were relatively affordable. For a graduate like her who had just left campus and had no financial ability, it was actually a good choice.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"What's wrong? Is there something on my face?\" He Lele put the rice bowl in front of Lingyu and teased her when she saw her staring straight at her.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Lele, are you hiding a lot of things from me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>He Lele was slightly startled. \"Why do you ask?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"...\" Ren Lingyu frowned with a somewhat solemn expression. \"Is there, or isn't there?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>He Lele looked at Ren Lingyu’s expression and lowered her head slightly to look at the simple dishes on the table. Lingyu rarely spoke to her so seriously; she knew Lingyu was worried about her.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Yes. I am hiding things from you, but I mentioned it to you before. To protect the owners' privacy, my job involved signing a contract, and I cannot disclose anything about the apartment to the outside world without permission. You wouldn't want me to be someone without contractual spirit, would you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Then... besides things in the apartment, are you hiding anything else from me?\" Ren Lingyu asked, half-believing.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Heh... I've been in the apartment for these three months; besides things in the apartment, what else could there be? On the contrary, you—\" He Lele looked Ren Lingyu up and down with interest. \"It's only been three months, and you already have the lawyer vibe! I didn't expect Lawyer Li not only to be strong himself but also to be so good at training apprentices?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Hearing He Lele praise Li Yiquan, Ren Lingyu immediately raised her eyebrows proudly. \"Of course! My master is Li Yiquan! You don't know, it's happened several times—the opposing lawyer’s face turns white the moment they see my master, hahahaha! It cracks me up!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Then what if you were asked to go up against Lawyer Li?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Uh—cough cough cough! I, I'm hungry! Eat! Eat!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>After eating and cleaning up, the two of them rested side by side on the small bed with their heads together.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"You're going to report to the hotel tomorrow, right?\" Ren Lingyu asked softly.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Mm.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Why did you suddenly think of doing customer service?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>He Lele explained the reason slowly. At first, she had no clue when looking for job postings online because she was afraid of failing the interview due to her fear of eye contact. Later, she accidentally saw someone post on a forum saying they had failed miserably in a phone interview due to poor on-the-spot reactions, so she paid attention and discovered the position the poster was applying for was customer service. After a period of understanding and comparison, combined with her own interests and strengths, she decided to try this position and submitted several resumes online. Two of them did indeed call her for interviews, and both wanted her to come to the company to meet as soon as possible...\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>These past two days, she had gone to those two companies one after another. The final meetings were basically one-on-one with department heads and HR personnel, and everything went very smoothly, a far cry from the situation three months ago where she kept hitting walls. So... the direction of action was really important.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>After comparing, she chose to go to the call center of the ×Jing Hotel headquarters to do customer service because it was closer to the Liming Law Firm, so she might be able to eat with Lingyu during lunch breaks...\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>She was officially reporting tomorrow. To say she wasn't nervous would be a lie, but... having a normal job, a normal work environment, clear job responsibilities, and development prospects—her future life seemed to be gradually becoming clear! This feeling—was really good!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>After the rain comes the rainbow; that was probably her mood right now.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"By the way, there is one thing you must tell me. If you don't tell me, I'll know soon anyway, so you might as well just tell me! I can't wait!\" Ren Lingyu suddenly sat up straight and looked at He Lele eagerly.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"What is it?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Qin Zhixiu is releasing a lead single and a photo book before his new album this time. The grapevine says the single is a duet with a mysterious girl from outside the industry! That mysterious girl from outside the industry wouldn't be you, would it?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Author's Note\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The middle volume is ending~~~ Haha~~~ Transitioning~~~\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The outside world~~~ plenty of soy sauce waiting to pass by~~~ Teeheeheehee~~ Some of the people and things from before will all be explained one by one!!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Love you all!! Sorry for the wait!!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>☆, (8 Fresh Coins) Chapter 191: Entangled Dilemma\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Ah ah! Ah ah ah! Ah ah ah ah!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Listening to Lingyu’s extremely excited screaming in her ear, He Lele shook her head with a smile. She had been busy these past few days, so she hadn't opened the iron box Qin Zhixiu gave her. She only remembered it when Lingyu asked about the single. The iron box contained exactly the lead single and photo book Lingyu mentioned. The packaging was extremely exquisite and sophisticated. She was just about to take out the disc to play it, but Lingyu grabbed the photo book with glowing eyes, in a posture—that looked just like a weasel who hadn't eaten for three days and nights encountering a chicken...\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Ren Lingyu flipped through it page by page, screaming with every sound. He Lele couldn't help but worry if the neighbors would come to knock on the door. She had seen all the photos in the photo book at Mu Wei’s place, so she could very well understand Lingyu’s mood. Qin Zhixiu’s flawless appearance, pure temperament, and Mu Wei’s technique—whether under the blue sea and sky or on the sofa floor, Qin Zhixiu was so pure and beautiful that one couldn't bear to desecrate him, yet he was also incredibly alluring, making people unable to control their fantasies of touching him, while feeling ashamed of their own sinful thoughts.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>He... A hint of shyness flashed quietly on He Lele’s small face—Lingyu definitely wouldn't have guessed that she had been Qin Zhixiu’s first woman.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Ah, ahhhhh—\" Ren Lingyu’s strange scream, a mix of excitement and agony, pulled He Le directly back from her amorous memories.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"What's wrong?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Ren Lingyu looked at He Lele with an expression of being overly shocked, her index finger trembling as she pointed at the photo book. He Lele leaned over to look, but didn't understand for a moment, because the page Lingyu was pointing at only had an image on the bottom third, while the top part was pitch black. Looking closely at that third, she blushed instantly. It, it was the scene of Qin Zhixiu kissing her on the sofa that day! That third just happened to reveal the arm Qin Zhixiu was holding her with, his clothes half-off and hanging on his arm and waist, and the smooth, alluring patch of skin on his waist and back.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Please look forward to the full version in Qin Zhixiu’s new album *Close to Heaven*.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Seeing the small line of text on the photo book clearly, He Lele didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Doing this really whetted the fans' appetites. She seemed to hear the heartfelt wails of thousands of young girls... No wonder Mu Wei said one photo was worth a 30% increase in sales. By keeping the fans in suspense like this, when the album hit the shelves, the fans would probably rush into bookstores and music stores the first moment they could to see the full \"lewd photo,\" right? Speaking of which, even she hadn't seen this one...\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Lele! You, it's you, right? You and Qin Zhixiu, you and him are really together?\" Ren Lingyu asked, both surprised and happy.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"No, it's not, how could that be, it's just for photos.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Really?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Rea-lly!\" He Lele emphasized word by word.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Chr\u002F>\u003Cp>\u003Cem>— Author's Notes —\u003C\u002Fem>\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Author's Note:\u003C\u002Fp>",1419,"2026-06-14T03:55:58.348Z","2026-06-17T08:39:51.626Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","ffe20c4380c9d99b62188651a6d9efda6f9f07b2b173380d064b4fa6047109c2","the-ultimate-men-s-apartment-chapter-181","the-ultimate-men-s-apartment-chapter-179",301,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-ultimate-men-s-apartment-cover.jpg"]
