Young woman renovates her apartment, gains Internet acclaim

Most people won’t spend a dime improving their apartments when they know that one day they will move out. In addition, few landlords even allow tenants to carry out renovations.

Nevertheless, a lucky young woman named Xiaojing not only got her landlord's permission to renovate her 60-square-meter apartment, she also gained a following on the Internet after posting amazing before-and-after photos of her living space.

Xiaojing, who was born in 1990, currently runs a small tea shop with her younger sister in Guangzhou. They live together and pay 1,600 yuan per month for their rent. "In neighboring communities, an apartment costs 4,000 yuan per month," said Xiaojing.

After careful consideration, the sisters signed a three-year contract with their landlord. "We saved some money on rent, which allowed us to invest in renovations," explained Xiaojing. So far, the sisters have spent about 30,000 yuan on renovations and furniture.

On her Weibo, Xiaojing shared several photos of her apartment from before and after the renovation. Some netizens comment that any man would be lucky to marry a woman like Xiaojing.
