Chapter 62 There is no such thing as pie in the sky(1/2)
She was stunned for a moment, and her tear-filled eyes seemed to freeze for a second.
"Forget it if you don't want to, I don't like forcing people."
"I do!" She nodded vigorously, and the light in her eyes fluctuated again, shining with urgency and anxiety.
Her heart ached. She didn't understand why she was like this. She had never experienced it before...
It turns out that what happened in the first place was actually caused by yourself?
Is all this caused by your own fault?
Suddenly, a very strong and sharp sound made her brain numb, everything in front of her began to spin, and even the pictures began to fade away.
It was as if the body and soul were to be torn in half, struggling violently, and falling into an endless swamp.
She opened her eyes suddenly and took deep breaths. She saw Duan Hanshuang controlling the faucet in the open kitchen. The valve was broken and the water splashed all over the floor with a harsh sound.
She breathed a sigh of relief, it turned out to be reality.
"Can it be done? How about calling the repairman?"
Her voice was so light that Duan Hanshuang was startled, "Are you awake?"
"I still woke you up. This water valve may have been too old or something, but it suddenly exploded!"
The water, which was higher than the fountain, was about to be suppressed. When Xi Mingyue was about to come up, he immediately stopped him: "Hey, don't come over. You can't catch a cold. You sit on the sofa and call the property owner for me!"
"Okay..." I was so stupid that I forgot about this.
As misfortune never comes alone, good fortune never comes alone, and the landlord also came over.
"Miss, I'm so sorry. My house is no longer available for rent. This is double the compensation. Please move out as soon as possible!"
The sudden change made the two of them dumbfounded. Duan Hanshuang was furious and spoke fluently in foreign languages: "It was agreed in black and white at the beginning. I rented it for half a year. It's not even a month yet. Are you kidding me?"
The landlord also looked apologetic, "I'm really sorry. This house needs to be demolished and renovated. You see, the valves are no longer working. This is just fine. If the aging circuit causes a fire, you two ladies may not be able to deal with it at home."
"
This seems to make sense.
"But I've already rented it, so suddenly you ask us to move to where do you want us to live?"
"This..." His eyes flickered, "I have a house not far away that I can rent to you, but the rent..."
Duan Hanshuang narrowed his eyes and said simply: "As long as the house is satisfactory, you will not be short of rent!"
"Okay, then why don't you two come with me to check out the house? If you're satisfied, just bring your bags and move in! All appliances, sofas, etc. are included!"
They both agreed readily. Duan Hanshuang asked Xi Mingyue to get dressed before getting into the car together.
The landlord couldn't help but say: "You guys have a really good relationship."
Seeing the landlord's increasingly strange eyes, Duan Hanshuang suddenly realized, "What are you thinking? My sexual orientation is normal, don't slander me!"
The landlord was stunned for a moment and then smiled.
We arrived at our destination in a short while. As soon as we got off the bus, they thought they had gone the wrong way.
"This...this is yours too?"
The manor in front of me is comparable to a castle. Just from the appearance, the expensive decoration and the clean lawn front yard, it is thousands of times better than the small house on the beach.
"Your rent...isn't it a star and a half too expensive?" It's a sky-high price, isn't it?
Xi Mingyue twitched her lips, suddenly feeling like she had been tricked again, "What we are looking for is a residence, not a palace."
She thought to herself that it was so big that her whole family would be able to live in a spacious place.
The landlord chuckled: "Miss Duan, I think you may have misunderstood. I only want to rent one of the rooms, not all of them."
Ah this.
The air was stagnant for a moment, and the expression on his face changed again and again. Duan Hanshuang said, "Let us go in and take a look first!"
"Okay, two beautiful ladies, please come this way."
The landlord gave them a general tour and thought it was unexpected.
It looked very luxurious from the outside, but I didn't expect that there was so much going on inside, and every place was filled with the smell of money.
"I can't tell, you actually come from a wealthy family!" Duan Hanshuang joked nonchalantly.
He laughed dryly twice and got to the point: "Are you two ladies satisfied?"
"Satisfaction is satisfaction, but..." Duan Hanshuang looked confused and said softly, "The rent..."
"Don't worry, this will definitely give you an affordable price! It's even cheaper than the house on the beach!"
"Ah?" She couldn't believe it, "Isn't this a haunted house?"
In foreign ghost movies, large estates like this one are so cheap, and they are guaranteed to be haunted.
"Miss, please don't slander me. My house is in a good location and was built by myself. The land is also my personal property."
He said eloquently: "I will only give you the right to use one room. You have to pay for water and electricity by yourself. Besides, there will be other tenants living in so many rooms."
Saying this, it seems that he is not so much at a loss.
Xi Mingyue nodded thoughtfully, "Can we make them quieter? Or is the soundproofing of the room good?"
The landlord was stunned for a moment, his eyes rolled rapidly, and he blurted out: "Don't worry, this is definitely not the case. We are all good and qualified citizens!"
"Really?" She was a little unconvinced and asked, "How about we stay in a hotel first and then look at other options?"
I always feel that there are no good things that fall into the sky.
Duan Hanshuang also agreed, saying it makes sense.
The landlord's face changed slightly, but he still pretended to smile calmly: "Okay, you guys have a look, now let me take you out."
"You can't go to the beach house, so are you going to the hotel again? I'll take you there. If something happens to you on the way alone, I can't escape responsibility."
"No need, we can do it ourselves." Jing Xi Mingyue reminded him, and Duan Hanshuang also increased his vigilance.
If you are diligent when you have nothing to do, if you are not a woman, you will be a thief.
"It seems that the two ladies are hostile to me," he said with a look of regret and a very gentlemanly nod: "Well, I wish you both find the house you like as soon as possible!"
Xi Mingyue lowered her eyes lightly: "Thank you."
Then Duan Hanshuang and I took a taxi to the hotel with a bunch of luggage. We thought we were going to stay at the beach for a long time and bought a lot of things, but now we can’t take them with us anymore. Many of the things were left in the small house on the beach.
The owner of the nanny car looked embarrassed as he watched the dust fly away. He reluctantly and timidly answered the phone that rang:
"Assistant Secretary, failed..."
Si Zhi was on speakerphone, so he subconsciously looked at the gloomy-looking man and asked hurriedly: "What went wrong?"
"No, hey...these two girls were too wary. I thought I had already said everything perfectly and was about to conclude the negotiation. The girl who had been silent all this time suddenly stepped in and refused to agree."
Li Jin's eyes narrowed deeply. It was obvious to him that this girl was Xi Mingyue.
Has she regained her memory now?
If the memory is restored, it would be reasonable to reject it.
"Is there anything else you can say besides interfering? Don't leave out any small details, tell me everything."
"Yes..." He stated everything that just happened again.
This time Li Jin was sure that she had not recovered her memory yet.
"I'm so anxious." The man who never spoke said, his deep voice low and hoarse.
The other person on the phone was stunned for a long time, and then he responded with a smile: "What Mr. Li said is that I am too anxious..."
"Now wait and see, there is no need to contact them again."
"Yes, Mr. Li."
After hanging up the phone, Si Zhi asked: "Master, the people I sent have not been discovered."
He raised his eyes slightly: "I know."
"Keep watching and report any movement as soon as possible. You won't have a second chance to make a mistake."
The first time was in the hospital. When Diana asked someone to go to the hospital to kidnap Xi Mingyue and the two failed to discover it in time, then
After that, all the secret guards in the hospital were punished.
Si Zhizhan was trembling and nodded respectfully: "Yes!"
"Go out first." He frowned with fatigue, loosened his collar, held his forehead and closed his eyes heavily.
"Buckle, button, button!"
Li Jin sighed, closed his eyes, and asked in a deep voice, "What's the matter?"
Si Zhi said that he didn't want to go back and disturb your rest, "He said that there are things in the house on the beach that Miss Xi didn't take away. What should I do with them?"
Suddenly, his closed eyes opened with a little clarity.
He stood up and said, "Get the car ready."
