"Hey, sir, it doesn't really matter whose it is! I've already paid the rent. For the next three years, I can rent it to whomever I want, and the landlord can't interfere! It's all in writing!"
Don't worry, as long as the paperwork is written and the rent is paid, even if the landlord finds out, they can't do anything to you!
“That won’t do either!” Gan Mingyi refused decisively.
The Zhao family are no good people. They're all talking nicely now, but once they've finally built up their business, Zhao Juan will find out they rented her shop and come looking for trouble with any excuse. That would be a real loss for them.
He frowned and looked at Gan Li: "Little sister, how about we look at some other shops?"
Gan Li was also a little conflicted. She wasn't afraid of Zhao Juan, but she felt there was no need to cause trouble for herself.
However, she was very satisfied with the location and layout of the shop, and felt it was a pity to give it up.
She hesitated for a moment, then looked at the shopkeeper and asked, "Shopkeeper, do you really want to get rid of this shop?"

He also approached Zhao Juan, saying he didn't want to rent anymore, but she probably knew he was leaving and that it would be difficult to find someone to take over the place, so she refused to terminate the lease. That's why he had no choice but to sublet it, hoping to get back as much as he could.
The shopkeeper gritted his teeth and said, "Shopkeeper Gan, just rent it! I'll give you a discount! Just help me out!"
Gan Li looked at his anxious appearance and smiled slightly—it seemed that the shopkeeper was really driven to desperation. Well then, she would help him out.
"No need for a cheap price, but I can help you." Gan Li's lips curled into a playful smile as she slowly said, "However, you have to listen to me."
Upon hearing that there was hope, the shopkeeper was overjoyed and nodded hurriedly, saying, "Shopkeeper Gan, please tell me. As long as it's within my power, I will do my best!"
"I need you to pass on a message to Miss Zhao."
