Chapter 21: Rent Must Be Paid Daily
Han Xiangdong scratched his head and smiled sheepishly. “Okay.” However, he still felt a little guilty when he met his sister’s eyes, so he did not dare to disobey her.
Liu Sujuan had not slept for three days. Although she was worried, she did not want to go against her daughter’s good intentions, so she followed her son.
“You have an interesting adoptive mother and brother.” Qiao Qiao couldn’t help but smile.
“They’re both very good people. When I was young…” Le Yao told Qiao Qiao about her adoptive parents and brother. In the end, she sighed slightly. “I don’t want them to go back. At least, I want them to stay in Xiling City until my father’s leg is completely healed.” Although she had changed the future tragedy of the Han family, she still secretly hoped that they could live a better life.
“They should. The conditions here are better than in the countryside.” Qiao Qiao nodded.
“I’ll rent them a house first…” Le Yao took out her phone and browsed through the rental information. If that bastard gave her a hundred million yuan quickly, she could buy a house directly. She could buy a house with the money she had now, but she would only be able to afford a cheap one, and she couldn’t buy a big house.
“Rent?” Qiao Qiao rolled her eyes at her. “I have one, but that house is small. It’s only a hundred square feet.”
Le Yao blinked at Qiao Qiao. Was this the world of the rich? They had properties everywhere, and they thought a hundred square feet was small? Her family of four had originally only lived in a house that was eighty square feet. She had suddenly transmigrated into the book and had no idea how her family was doing. Now that she was gone, her brother probably didn’t have to sleep in the living room anymore.
“It was a gift from my uncle after I got into university. However, the house was unfurnished at that time and needed renovation. After that, my father bought Lijing Apartments, so after the renovation, that house was left empty…”
Le Yao nodded, her heart already calm. “Then I’ll rent yours.”
“You’re slapping me in the face, aren’t you? I’m not renting my house. Either go live there happily or don’t come looking for me at all.”
“I’m talking about rent in the form of daily meals and snacks. Since President Qiao doesn’t want them…”
“Yes.” Qiao Qiao suddenly grabbed Le Yao’s arm and couldn’t help but lick her lips. “I have to take this rent, and you have to pay it daily. If you’re late, I won’t let you off…”
Le Yao laughed.
Liu Sujuan only wanted to go to the guest house to lie down, but when she opened her eyes again, she realized that the sky was already bright. She hurriedly got up and saw that it was already noon. She immediately panicked and got up to walk out. However, as soon as she opened the door, she saw Han Xiangdong walking over. “Son, it’s already so late. Your father…”
“Don’t worry. My father’s surgery was very successful. Lan’er just called me and said that you can go over when you wake up.” Han Xiangdong looked happy.
In the ward, Han Baozhu was already awake. When he saw Le Yao, he was as happy as a child, especially when he heard that his daughter had dreamed that something had happened to him. He was even more proud. His daughter was closer to him than anyone else.
“Lan’er, hurry up and go back with Miss Qiao to rest.” After Liu Sujuan came over, she started to chase her away. “Your brother and I are here. It’s fine. I’ll call you if anything happens.”
Le Yao didn’t refuse. She was really tired. After all, her body was still quite weak. She couldn’t make up for it in a few days. Besides, everything had been arranged here. Qiao Qiao had even arranged for a male nurse. There was nothing to worry about, so she went home with Qiao Qiao.
