Chapter 69: Tang Mi, Tang's Secretary

In the dead of night, Tang Mi dragged a suitcase, pursing her lips as she followed behind Lin Feng.

"That doesn't fit your character!"

Lin Feng teased, "Weren't you chasing me that day, saying you wanted to marry me?"

Tang Mi snapped, "Is it me who's childish or you? Can't you even see a joke?"

Lin Feng spread his hands, "Now it's like this; regret is useless. The only blame is that you provoked me back then."

"Sigh~"

Tang Mi let out a sigh.

The two walked to the parking spot.

Lin Feng opened the car door and got in.

Tang Mi is now, in the eyes of the Tang Family, Lin Feng's wife, and Lin Feng is too lazy to even open the door for her.

Tang Mi opened the trunk herself and shoved the luggage inside.

Then she pulled open the passenger-side door and sat down.

After she buckled her seatbelt, Lin Feng started the car.

"Listen, even though my family has cast me out, I will not sleep with you," Tang Mi emphasized, frowning.

Lin Feng chuckled, "Your few ounces of flesh can't withstand my roughhousing. You'll still have to rely on me for food, so behave in front of me, or I'll let you starve."

After leaving the Tang Family, Tang Mi's bank cards, credit cards, and so on were frozen. Even the secondhand domestic sedan was confiscated.

She is now the textbook case of having no money, no place to live, and no job.

In the words of the Tang Family patriarch, Tang Mi now belongs to Lin Feng, and the Tang Family won't give her a single cent.

Tang Mi, frustrated, cupped her head and shook it hard a few times.

She felt as if she were dreaming.

She used to be the Tang Family's eldest daughter; now she's "already a married woman."

"Your Tang Family only has your grandfather, your father, and those grandmothers and mothers?"

Lin Feng asked curiously.

"Of course not!"

Tang Mi shook her head, "There are plenty of us in the Tang Family! Grandfather and father are just back on the front line; the whole clan—over a hundred members—has returned. If a whole nest gets taken, what then?"

"What does your family do abroad?" Lin Feng asked again.

Tang Mi replied, "We run martial arts schools, casinos, nightclubs… basically anything that makes money."

Lin Feng smiled.

He thought, that's just underground business, right?

They're illegal at home, but legal in foreign countries.

No wonder Tang Mi has trained in martial arts.

Lin Feng drove the car to the affluent Cartier residence where Han Xiang lives.

It's a high-end community, fitting for the Tang Family's eldest daughter.

Building 2, unit 902, a more-than-200‑square‑meter luxuriously renovated apartment, pleased Tang Mi greatly.

But living in such a place comes at a price.

Lin Feng laughed, "Pay each month's rent on time, okay!"

Han Xiang's rented unit costs only 30,000 per month, but Lin Feng raised Tang Mi's rent by 20,000.

Tang Mi wasn't stupid; she exploded on the spot, "Do you think I don't know the rental market? Four ten‑thousand a month is sky‑high for an apartment!"

"Fine! Four ten‑thousand a month it is!"

Lin Feng hurriedly replied.

Tang Mi was stunned, feeling her quote might have been too high!

Why didn't you say the maximum was 30,000 earlier?

But it's too late to change now.

"Pay up!"

Lin Feng extended his hand to Tang Mi, "According to the rules, the deposit is 80,000, plus one season's rent in advance, totaling 200,000."

Tang Mi was taken aback, then sighed, "I have no money."

"You could work it off with labor!" Lin Feng reminded.

"Dream on!" Tang Mi rolled her eyes at Lin Feng, "Help me find a job. Once I have a salary, I can pay the rent."

"What skills do you have? What about your education?" Lin Feng asked curiously.

Speaking of education, Tang Mi puffed up, "I graduated from the American Wharton Business School and even received a bonus."

Lin Feng nodded, "Then you don't have to worry about finding a job; tomorrow just take your diploma to interview. I think you can land a million‑yuan annual salary. The rent can be postponed, but you owe me an IOU."

Tang Mi waved her hand, "Forget it! For such a trivial matter I won't go myself; you find me a job that pays a few ten‑thousands a month, okay?"

"Hmm…"

Lin Feng stroked his chin, thought for a moment, then nodded, "How about you become my secretary? I'll pay you each month—what do you think?"

Tang Mi frowned in displeasure, "My monthly allowance used to be far more than this!"

"You can say that was the past; now you're a married woman, not a little girl. Face reality! If you don't want to work, fine—go find a job yourself!"

After speaking, Lin Feng pulled two lease contracts from the coffee table drawer.

Now that there are no vacant houses, Lin Feng has prepared lease contracts and kept them in the room.

That way, when a tenant wants to rent, he can just pull out a contract.

Tang Mi sighed helplessly, "Fine! I'll be your secretary then!"

After finishing speaking, Tang Mi snatched the contract from Lin Feng's hand and glanced at it.

After Lin Feng filled in the numbers and date, Tang Mi signed it promptly.

"Congratulations, Miss Tang, from now on you are my personal secretary. Secretary Tang, you have many tasks; I will print a document with the specifics for you tomorrow."

Lin Feng extended his hand to Tang Mi.

Tang Mi reached out and shook hands with Lin Feng, then smiled and asked, "May I ask, what work do I need to do?"

Lin Feng explained, "I have some properties; every day there are tenants moving out or prospective renters coming to view. Your job is to serve the rental customers..."

"In addition, there are other tasks; whatever I tell you to do, you do. This includes, but is not limited to, driving for me, serving tea and water, cleaning rooms, doing laundry..."

Tang Mi's elegant eyebrows gradually knit together.

According to Lin Feng, a secretary like her is basically the same as a nanny!

After describing Tang Mi's duties, seeing the beautiful woman's dissatisfied expression, Lin Feng spread his hands and said, "If you don't want to do it, you can just forfeit the monthly salary; there are plenty of beautiful women outside who can't get a job like this!"

"I... I'll do it!"

Tang Mi hesitated briefly, gritted her teeth, and spoke.

Lin Feng nodded with satisfaction and said, "Then rest well tonight; tomorrow is Monday, so get up early for work."

Having said that, he prepared to leave.

Tang Mi grabbed Lin Feng's arm and asked, "Can you pay a month's salary in advance?"

She doesn't have a single cent on her.

If Lin Feng leaves like that, even getting a meal will be a problem for her.

Lin Feng suppressed a laugh, took out his wallet, and counted out ten thousand cash for Tang Mi, saying, "Here's 5,000 yuan; you paid 40,000 yuan in advance for one month's rent, plus 5,000 yuan as part of the deposit. You have one month left, so spend it sparingly!"

Tang Mi let out a cold snort and, displeased, took the 5,000 yuan from Lin Feng's hand.

She then added, "When you're out there, you need a car, right? There's also fuel costs, meals out, data fees for navigation, and so on."

Lin Feng handed Tang Mi another 2,000 yuan, saying, "The car will be yours tomorrow morning; the 2,000 yuan is a subsidy. Satisfied now?"
