Chapter 7: Good Sister, Bad Brother

From Monday to

Every day I wake up early at the bell.

I return home around nine o'clock.

Then I set out at nine in the evening and return home around eleven.

Others are 9 to 9, Lin Feng is 9.

There's no way around it, I have so much rent to collect.

Most tenants are at work, so I collect rent before they head out in the morning and after they get off work in the evening.

Weekends are even busier.

Lin Feng basically makes surprise visits.

Should I make a phone appointment?

Forget it, more than half of the tenants will claim they're not home.

It's not that they're all deadbeats trying to avoid rent.

It's just that thinking of the hard-earned sum of money, it's going to end up in someone else's pocket.

It doesn't feel good.

Up, nine thirty.

Jinhu Huayuan.

Building 8, Floor 8, Unit 3.

While parking in the underground lot, Lin Feng suddenly remembered.

Wen Keke also lives in this community.

She's just in Building 5.

This Jinhu Huayuan community is famous in Yanjingcheng as a 'Beauty Nest'.

Arriving at the door of 803, Lin Feng pressed the doorbell.

"Who is it?"

The intercom at the doorway emitted a woman's sweet, soft voice.

"I'm here to collect rent; my father is Lin Xiangdong, and I am his son, Lin Feng."

Saying that, Lin Feng took out his ID and placed it at the peephole.

The door opened quickly, and a beautiful woman in red pajamas appeared before Lin Feng's eyes.

These days, I collect rent every day.

I encounter many beautiful female tenants.

Lin Feng deliberately avoids thinking about the tenants' information, which gives him a kind of blind-box fun.

Seeing a beautiful woman, especially one with outstanding demeanor, brings a sense of delightful surprise.

"Turns out you're the little landlord, you're really handsome!"

The beauty brushed back her long hair, made way, and said, "Please come in!"

In his free time these days, Lin Feng has read many books on psychology and micro-expressions.

This woman named Guo Yanru is clearly not easy to deal with at first glance.

Next, it's quite a test of willpower.

After entering, Guo Yanru brewed Lin Feng a cup of tea, then sat gracefully on the sofa opposite him.

She also slightly lifted one long leg and crossed it over the other.

"Handsome guy, your rent is way too high! I work myself to death every day, just like I'm working for your family."

As Guo Yanru spoke, her eyes held a hint of resentment, but her posture and subtle movements gave Lin Feng a feeling of being teased.

Lin Feng smiled slightly: "Sister, you're joking; you're the PR manager of a big company, earning over 300,000 a year, so a monthly rent of six thousand is just a drop in the bucket for you."

Guo Yanru's face showed surprise: "You even know how much I earn in a year, you're really impressive!"

But sister's expenses are also huge! Clothes, bags, cosmetics—she spends tens of thousands a month.

You know, in our line of work we need to keep up appearances in front of clients; sister just bought a BMW, with a monthly payment of over three thousand.

"Handsome guy, why not have pity on me and reduce the rent by a thousand each month? How about that?"

Saying that, Guo Yanru leaned forward, and the collar of her pajamas gaped open.

Lin Feng unconsciously glanced, but his expression remained unchanged as he said: "No way, sister; you can ask your left and right neighbors how much rent they pay."

For an apartment like this, other landlords have already raised the price; charging you six thousand is really not excessive.

Guo Yanru stood up, sat beside Lin Feng, put her arm around his arm and shook it, saying: "Handsome guy, brother, dear brother! Please reduce my rent a bit! My company has lots of beautiful women; I can introduce you to a girlfriend—how about that?"

Lin Feng turned his head and glanced at Guo Yanru, only to see her eyes filled with a pleading expression.

Really deadly!

Feeling the sensation from his arm, Lin Feng impulsively said, "Alright!"

"Good brother!"

"Bo!"

Guo Yanru planted a kiss on Lin Feng's face.

Lin Feng finally came to his senses.

Although he had been on guard, he still fell.

Looking again at Guo Yanru, she had already risen and sat opposite him.

With a smile, she took out two copies of the rental contract she had drafted and printed from under the coffee table.

Then she looked at Lin Feng with a triumphant gaze and said, "Brother, sign it!"

Lin Feng slapped his own forehead, helplessly saying: "Really impossible to guard against! 5000 dollars, this is the bottom price; next time, older sister, don't do this again."

After saying that, Lin Feng took out the previous rental contract from his pocket, crumpled it and threw it into the trash.

Soon the contract was signed.

"Older sister has to see a client early tomorrow morning, so I won't entertain you."

After Guo Yanru put away the new rental contract, she said with a smile.

"Sis, you're pulling the bridge after crossing the river!"

Lin Feng said with a helpless expression.

Guo Yanru said with a smile: "Little brother, do you want to stay? Older sister doesn't mind an old cow eating tender grass."

After saying that, she strode over with long legs, eyes full of charm, walking toward Lin Feng.

Lin Feng quickly raised his hands in surrender, saying: "I'm leaving! Is it not okay if I leave?"

"Bang!"

The door was shut.

Lin Feng let out a breath, thinking: "No wonder she's the PR department manager; this tactic, few men can resist."

It's not that Lin Feng's will is weak.

Rather, he understands that Guo Yanru is actually a woman deserving of sympathy.

Because she often drinks heavily, she has a serious stomach ailment.

Although her annual income exceeds 300,000, she has to support her younger brother and sister through college.

Her parents also suffer from illness; her elderly father just had surgery, costing over ten thousand.

The BMW parked in the garage is actually second-hand.

"Huh, I forgot something?"

Lin Feng suddenly remembered.

He turned around and pressed the doorbell again.

After a long while, the door finally opened.

Guo Yanru, looking exhausted, said: "Little brother, are you regretting it? Older sister would rather find a rich man to keep her."

"Sis, let's add WeChat! It'll be easier to stay in touch."

Guo Yanru turned around, fetched her phone, and quickly added the contact.

"Want to consider it?"

Guo Yanru asked again.

Lin Feng waved at her, then turned and left.

Just as he exited the elevator and entered the underground parking garage, Lin Feng's phone received a text message.

It was a payment notification from the bank, 15000 dollars.

Guo Yanru's rent is paid quarterly.

Lin Feng opened WeChat and sent Guo Yanru a message: "Sis, don't drink so much alcohol; your health is important; if anything comes up, you can contact me."

Guo Yanru replied with a shy expression.

Just as he was about to get in the car, a white sedan drove up ahead.

The car suddenly swerved, and then a bang came from inside.

Fortunately, the car stopped.

The car door opened, and Wen Keke, with her long hair flowing, stepped out of the car.

Then she covered her mouth and walked to the front, looking at the black BMW that her white sedan had "kissed".

She wanted to back into the parking space, but didn't expect to hit someone else's car.

"A female driver!"

Lin Feng shook his head with a sigh and walked over.

Wen Keke crouched on the ground, dazed, not knowing what to do.
