How are you? Was last night alright?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You… you know the specific details of the job?” She didn’t believe it. She didn’t believe Lingyu would push her into a pit of fire if she knew what it was.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Lele, why is your voice so hoarse? Did you not sleep at all last night? Honestly! I’m sorry, Lele, I only found out this morning too! I originally thought the job was just like being a dorm manager; although it required staying there 24 hours a day, the pay was good and you didn’t have to deal with many people, so that’s why I recommended it. My mom scolded me this morning for letting you take that job, and that’s when I found out those five guys have very strange tempers in private and irregular schedules. They often order people around in the middle of the night, and none of the previous managers could last more than three months.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Three months… She couldn’t even last one night. She had fainted during the second time in the bathroom, and was later woken up by the sharp pain in her nipples. He, however, had smiled and bitten the other one, causing her to tense her body and cry, begging him to let her go…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Lele? Lele! Are you okay? You’re this exhausted after just one night. I think you should just quit. I’ll look for other suitable jobs for you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“…Lingyu, did the previous managers say what they ordered people to do in the middle of the night?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I heard they’re all pretty perverted. Some want Beijing roast duck, some want coffee every half hour, some make the manager play games with them, and there’s even sparring… Lele! Did they make any excessive demands of you? Damn it! Those bastards! Wait for me, I’ll take you to see Auntie Yun to resign right now.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mm…” As expected, Lingyu didn’t know the truth. Lowering her head to glance at the tragic marks on her body, He Lele suddenly changed her mind. “No, I’ll go myself in a bit. You just started at the firm; it’s not good to keep asking for time off.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Uh… hm? Lele, wait a second!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Lele listened to the conversation coming from the other end; Lingyu’s Master seemed to be taking her to meet a client. He Lele smiled with relief. Unlike her, an “invisible person,” Lingyu was the focus of the crowd wherever she went, deeply trusted and loved by her mentors.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Lele, I’m sorry, I don’t think I can go with you! I’m really sorry!” Ren Lingyu said, sounding incredibly guilty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It wasn’t that she valued work over friends, but this law firm never hired rookies. Her mom had gone to great lengths and owed many favors to get her Master to take her on. One had to know that her Master was currently the youngest and sharpest killer-level expert in the legal world; it was hard enough for many people just to get a glimpse of him. Now that her Master was finally taking her out to gain experience, if she bailed, she might never get another chance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s fine. Good luck! Future Attorney Ren.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was her third time entering this “Auntie Yun’s” office. He Lele sat upright on the sofa, eyes lowered, looking at the teacup on the coffee table. When Lingyu first brought her here, she felt that she was afraid of this “Auntie Yun,” so she had hesitated when she came the second time to sign the contract. But in the end, she couldn’t overcome her desire for the job and the temptation of the high salary, so she had hurriedly glanced at the benefits and job description before signing her name.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Auntie Yun” was a somewhat plump and wealthy-looking woman. She looked to be in her forties but was very well-maintained. Her round face always wore a warm smile, making her seem as kind and approachable as one’s own aunt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You say you want to resign? Sure—according to the contract, resigning before three months requires a penalty of 100,000 yuan.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Author’s Note:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiangshan thinks, right~~ a mix of savory and sweet~ meat tastes better that way~~ what do you all think? No meat in these two chapters, so I’m doing a double update~~\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiangshan is an absolute newbie on Xianxian. I hope you all can teach me how to have a good time with everyone on Xianwang!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>☆ Chapter 3: Fried Rice\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“…The high penalty fee is illegal.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Heh… yes, but whether it’s high or not isn’t for you or me to decide. You and Lingyu are good friends, right? Then you must know her Master?” “Auntie Yun” shook the contract in her hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Lele’s face turned deathly pale. A contract from the hands of Li Yiquan, the man Lingyu worshipped like a god…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had no money.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Xiao Liang, send Miss He back in a car.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No! Don’t!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Watching He Lele leave the office with a face like paper, “Auntie Yun,” Zhai Feiyun, revealed an indescribable smile. Flipping through her notebook and confirming that only one person had returned to the apartment last night, Zhai Feiyun pressed the intercom button.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Xiao Qin, connect me to Ruan Lin.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Auntie Yun, one phone call from you might cost me an extra hour of filming!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You seem to be in a good mood today?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Is that so? Then I suppose I have to thank you for the ‘concubine’ you arranged. Facts prove that you are always right; it is indeed very ‘convenient’ and effective.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Heh…” Zhai Feiyun seemed to chuckle, unable to hold it back. “As long as it’s effective, keep working, Muse’s perfect lover.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes, respected Queen Hera.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hanging up the phone, Zhai Feiyun looked at He Lele’s employment contract on the desk, the smile on her face growing even brighter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Concubine, concubine! Hahahaha!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A few days ago, when she was getting a headache from those five guys, she had just jokingly said—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If you guys were actually dating girlfriends properly, I wouldn’t say anything, but what’s the meaning of you randomly messing with women outside? I might as well find you a concubine. Not only can she take care of your food and daily needs, but you can also use her to vent your fire, play with, relieve boredom, handle physiological needs, and find inspiration. It kills many birds with one stone, and saves me from having to wipe your asses after you stir up a mess outside!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She didn’t expect that Ruan Lin guy would actually treat that little girl as a “concubine” to vent his fire, and he seemed quite satisfied with it. Although she felt a bit sorry for this little girl named Lele, well, people should be used to their full potential and things should be used for their best purpose. Since she was useful, of course she had to make good use of her. It’s just, she wondered if this “concubine” would be useful for the others too?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at her packed luggage, He Lele was beyond tears.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had originally thought that a company as big as Muse wouldn’t play tricks on the contracts of low-level employees. She had originally thought that the job of an apartment manager, no matter how hard, would only be physically tiring. She had originally thought…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The first lesson the university of society taught her was—don’t “assume” everything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Gurgle…” No matter how depressed she felt, her stomach was very loyal in reminding her that she hadn’t eaten for a day. When she woke up today, it was already noon. After enduring the soreness and pain all over her body to get up and wash, it was already time for the afternoon shift. After that, she had gritted her teeth to pack her luggage, thinking that after resigning she wouldn’t have to return to this “man-eating” apartment, but who knew…\u003C\u002Fp>",1311,"2026-06-14T03:55:58.348Z","Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","8368d3c384fdf82b34c6ab89f1981217ce42540c521ffcb139f4bfb434412483","the-ultimate-men-s-apartment-chapter-2",null,301,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-ultimate-men-s-apartment-cover.jpg"]
