Chapter 39: Chapter 39: The “Decent” Tenants

“Understood.” Su Wei smiled knowingly. “By the way, Miss Xu, you already have a one-bedroom apartment here. When will you have a two-bedroom apartment? If you have one, leave one for me. I’ve been wanting to bring my mother here for a long time. She likes to cook. We don’t have a kitchen here, so she’s not willing to come.”

“Wait for a while,” Xu Ying said weakly. “If there is, I’ll keep it for you.”

Su Wei agreed and left happily after saying goodbye to Zhong Jia.

“Humph!” Zhong Jia snorted when she saw him. “They’ve been corrupted by your sugar-coated bullets. Su Wei used to enjoy living in a stinking ditch.”

Xu Ying peeled a piece of candy and stuffed it into her mouth. “Is it sweet?”

“Sweet? Do you have more” Zhong Jia smacked her lips.

Xu Ying snorted. “So what’s wrong with sugar-coated bullets? You don’t have to suffer to realize your life value. You can eat well and sleep well at night. Only then will you have enough energy and strength to spend your blood and sweat during the day?”

Zhong Jia was instantly alerted. “So, our Major General was also coaxed by your sugar-coated bullets.”

Xu Ying’s face darkened. “Are you Wasteland Reclaimers all that smart? If you think so, then so be it. Hurry up and leave. There are still things to do.” Hua Haiyi was still locked up by her.

Zhong Jia was not convinced. She still wanted to argue. Why was her IQ not high? She was so strong. However, Xu Ying was obviously ignoring her. She realized that she couldn’t talk to Zhong Jia. This person was too good at imagining things.

Hua Haiyi was walking around the room. He couldn’t figure out why he went to Xu Ying’s room. When he came back, his communicator was gone, and he couldn’t open the door to his room. He seemed to be cut off from the world. The room opened from the outside.

“Miss Xu? You…” Before Hua Haiyi could finish his words, Zhong Jia pressed him into the room by his neck, as if she wanted to rip him off.

“I heard you took 100,000 coins from Xu Yongzhong?” Xu Ying asked.

“Miss Xu, you must be joking.” Hua Haiyi felt his scalp tingle. “Your father gave it to me.”

“Who would give 100,000 coins to someone for no reason?” Xu Ying sneered. Moreover, Xu Yongzhong is a stingy person. “Tell me, why did he give you money?”

Hua Haiyi understood that Xu Ying was trying to get back at him. He didn’t dare to say anything. He gave him money to bribe the people around Xu Ying for convenience. He also bought some of Peach Blossom Spring’s specialties and sold them at a high price. However, Yao Shuang did not fall for his trick. Xu Ying had a grudge against Old Xu’s family, so she definitely would not make an exception. He thought that since they were father and daughter, there was nothing he could not do. If he stirred up trouble in the middle, he could still get money from both sides. In the end, it didn’t work. Also, that vending machine had a limited purchase…

Xu Ying raised two fingers. “I’ll give you two options. The first option is to cancel the lease and disappear with the Xu family. You’re not allowed to contact them. You can keep the money in your pocket. The second condition is that you continue to live, eat, drink, and pee in this house. The money is for your retirement.”

Hua Haiyi was dumbfounded. He had never seen anyone make a threat sound so fresh and refined. Wasn’t it obvious that if he didn’t agree to the first option, he would be imprisoned until he died!

“I choose the first option. I will leave today”

“You should understand that offending the Xu family is better than offending me, right?” Xu Ying nodded in satisfaction. “You won’t go back on your word, right?”

Hua Haiyi immediately felt relieved. Speaking of which, Old Xu’s family was the most unlucky. They lost their money and did not get anything done. However, after offending Xu Ying, he looked at the gun beside him…That night, he left.

Zhong Jia sighed. Xu Ying had chased him away with just a few words and even covered up the Xu family’s lie.

Yao Shuang was so happy that it was as if she was celebrating the new year. “You’re the best. I didn’t know how to chase him away. I didn’t expect him to leave on his own.”

“I planted this bomb myself this time. I didn’t expect the tenants I recruited to know the Xu family…”

Yao Shuang: “It’s impossible for us to figure out the tenant’s character and interpersonal relationships just by making a few phone calls.” At this point, her expression turned a little ugly. “It’s the couple who rented a room and a living room and worked at the Food and Drug Administration. Do you still remember them? At first, they looked pretty decent, but who would have thought that they would be so lazy to throw their bento away? They threw it under the table in the small canteen and even hid it in a corner. It was only discovered when it was smelly. Xiao Fei had collected a few times, and Lan Xia couldn’t stand it anymore, so she went to her house and said that they couldn’t outtalk Sister Lan Xia, so they went to pack up their own. I thought it was over, but they piled it up in their own room. That day, when I passed by, I smelled something when I opened the door. I almost smelled it! I saw the bugs crawling in the garbage. I went up to them and told them. They gave me a perfunctory reply and turned around to grab a clean shirt from the garbage. They put it on and went to work. Oh my god! And Rourou, He Fan’s girlfriend, told me that the woman threw her shoes into the public washing machine. After saying it a few times, she washed them in the middle of the night. We still couldn’t catch her. The next morning, I saw that the washing machine was full of mud…”
