When the pretty girl heard about the rent, her face suddenly looked a little uncomfortable.
“My house isn’t due for another month, I think, so how can you come to ask for rent so early.” The pretty girl said.
“That’s where you’re wrong.” Junko leisurely lit a cigarette and said without haste, “I’m afraid you don’t know that this apartment building has changed to a new owner.”
“I heard about that.” The pretty girl said, “But so what, does a new owner make you unreasonable? My house isn’t due until the end of next month!”
“Hey, it’s not that it’s unreasonable, it’s that the rent went up after the new owner.” Junko said smugly, “You can stay until the end of this month, but starting next month you have to pay me another thousand dollars to stay on.”
“D*mn it, how can this be true, I’ve obviously already paid next month’s rent, so even if you want to raise the rent, you’ll have to wait until next month!” The pretty girl frowned.
“That’s impossible, as soon as this month is over, we’ll raise the rent.” Junko said.
“You’re in breach of contract, I can sue you!” The pretty girl looked a little anxious.
“Sue us?” Junko laughed shamelessly, “Beauty, are you being funny? The rent increase is what we want from the top, do you know who you’re going to sue if you do? The new owner of the building? And do you think you can sue the new owner of the building?”
The pretty girl didn’t say anything.
In fact, she didn’t need Shunzi to say that she knew clearly that the person who could afford this building must have a very deep background, and it was impossible to resist and seek justice.
“Alas, I heard that the beauty has recently lost her job, ah, this, and suddenly the rent has to be increased, it’s really adding insult to injury.” Junko made another sympathetic gesture and moved a little closer to the pretty girl, “Seriously, I quite sympathise with you. But, there is an old saying that there is no way out, Miss Ling Lan, in fact, as long as you let go a little, things are actually quite manageable, I think you should understand very well what I mean.”
With that, Shunzi actually raised his hand and slowly rubbed it on the beautiful woman’s hair, as if he was rubbing a smooth silk.
But the next second, his hand was opened by the beautiful woman.
“Get lost!”
The beauty’s face instantly turned pale and she rebuked.
The beauty’s face changed, and so did Shunzi’s, turning into a sneer.
“Good, you’re really a dog biting Lü Dongbin, I was kind enough to help you, but instead of appreciating it at all, you’re so ungrateful, Miss Ling Lan, you’re making me more and more impatient, looks like I might have to be a bad guy.” Junzi said with a fierce smile.
This guy, on the basis of being the manager of the building, used his power to do wrong. As long as there was a good-looking girl living in the building, he took it to heart and tried to get her by seduction or coercion.
Ever since Ling Lan came in, she has been Shunzi’s prime target.
After all, Ling Lan is a beautiful, elegant woman who is well educated and talented.
Conquering this kind of woman is most attractive to a man like Shunzi, who is not much of an educated gangster.
In ancient times, the pickpockets would have dreamed of playing with a noble princess.
“You, what do you want?” Seeing Shunzi like this, Ling Lan was also a bit scared.
“What about it? Hey, hey, in the past, seeing that you were still a reporter, I was still a bit scare, afraid that you would use your job and make things bigger, not daring to do anything to you, now that you have lost your job, what else am I afraid of you.” Shunzi moved closer and closer to Ling Lan, and his gaze burned up.
The others followed suit, blocking all of Ling Lan’s paths.
Ling Lan kept backing away until there was no more retreat.
“What’s going on, are you a bunch of hooligans and gangsters, or are you the managers of the building?” Lu Yuan said.
“Kid, you have no business here, go back to your house!” A young man pointed at Lu Yuan and yelled, it was the same guy who received Lu Yuan in the office just now.
“If I may say so, we rented the house here, this living room also belongs to us, you have no right to enter at will, sorry, you are not welcome here now, please you’d better get lost.” Lu Yuan said.
“I say, you stupid B*****d, do you not know the rules?” Junzi glared at Lu Yuan.
“That’s right, I don’t know the rules, I don’t know your rules, now either get lost right now or I’ll call the police.” Lu Yuan said and pulled out his phone.
“Okay, you stupid B*****d wait.”
Shunzi and the others had to give up once they saw that Lu Yuan was really a douchebag.
After all, their status was that of the administrator of this building, and they couldn’t go too far.
If things really got too big, they might lose their jobs, and that would be more than worth the loss.
Besides, as long as Ling Lan was still living here, they would always have some underhanded way to force Ling Lan’s hand by using the convenience of their status.
“Kid, let me advise you to mind your own business and stay clear, you don’t know what you’re messing with, and soon you’ll regret it.” Stacking down a threatening sentence, Shunzi then led his men away.
With Shunzi and the others gone, Ling Lan was also in no mood to go to the washroom.
She sat on her butt and scratched her hair, looking very annoyed.
From the conversation between Junzi and Ling Lan, Lu Yuan knew something about the woman’s situation, she had lost her job, was unemployed, and now she had to raise the rent.
For a woman, it was indeed a difficult time.
“Eh, the house here is so pitiful and the caretaker is such a virtuous person, why don’t you move out?” Lu Yuan said.
Of course, if one were to speak as the owner of this building, Lu Yuan certainly did not want the tenant to move out of this building.
“The location of this building is very good, there is a metro station nearby, there is a new bus station next to it, it is very close to the office buildings and the high tech area, there is no better place than here in this neighborhood.”
Ling Lan said, “Besides, I still have a month’s rent plus the deposit here, if I move out, I’ll have to lose four or five thousand dollars, and now I’m out of work again, I don’t have much money left, even if I find a new house, I won’t have money to rent it.”
“Alas, it’s not easy for a girl to work abroad. If you want me to say it, you might as well go back home for a while.” Lu Yuan said again.
“Who told you I’m a foreigner?” Ling Lan brushed her lips, “I’m a native of Jinling.”
“Huh?”
Lu Yuan froze, this was something he hadn’t thought of.
Then he thought, “I don’t think so. If you’re from Jinling, then you can just go home and live there, why rent an apartment here?
“So you’re not going home?”
“I don’t want to go home.” Ling Lan seemed even more annoyed when she heard Lu Yuan mention going home, “Besides, my family still doesn’t know that I’m unemployed, once I go home, won’t I be exposed.”
“Then it looks like you’ll have to live here, but don’t worry, the caretaker here will be replaced sooner or later.” Lu Yuan said.
“Huh.” Ling Lan laughed, obviously unconvinced by Lu Yuan’s words, “How could they be replaced, they’ve all been here for a long time, it’s obvious that there’s someone at the top who condones it again. If you ask me, that new owner of this building is also an idiot, he bought the building and didn’t come over to investigate it himself, and raised the rent, what a no brainer!”
Uh!
Lu Yuan had nothing to say.
“Well, actually, I have to thank you for what happened just now.” After talking for a while, Ling Lan seemed to be in a slightly better mood and stood up, “I’m going to take a shower. By the way, you should be more careful in general, after offending those people today, be careful of them finding you in trouble.”
“Hehehe.”
Lu Yuan thought to himself, it’s good that I didn’t find trouble with them.
However, I will definitely find trouble with them too.
After watching Ling Lan go into the bathroom, Lu Yuan also went back to his room.
To be honest, the room was not bad, air conditioning, TV, washing machine, a set of everything.
Just as Lu Yuan was looking around the room, he suddenly heard a scream coming from the bathroom.
It was Ling Lan’s voice!
Could it be that the gang had come back? Did they get their hands on this girl?
Lu Yuan originally didn’t have time to think about it and rushed out of the room and into the living room.
At that moment, a loud moaning sound could be heard from the bathroom, which seemed to be very miserable.
In desperation, Lu Yuan used his shoulder to knock open the bathroom door and rushed in.
