48 Haunted Apartment 12
◎Introducing a girlfriend to the landlord◎
Under everyone's terrified gaze, Sang Mian smiled and waved to the woman in the white dress: "Morning, Miaomiao!"
Qin Miao held the fragrant preserved egg and lean meat porridge, soy sauce pancakes, steamed dumplings, soy milk, tea eggs and pot stickers in her hands, and handed them over with stars in her eyes: "Miss Sang, this is breakfast, I don't know if you like it or not."
"So many!" Sang Mian took it in surprise: "Miao Miao, you are so nice, I love it so much!"
Qin Miao's face flushed with praise, and she pointed to a room and said, "My room is 715, if you need my help, be sure to find me!"
Sang Mian: "Yeah! Thank you!"
After delivering breakfast, Qin Miao trotted back to the room, thinking as she ran, Miss Sang is simply the most beautiful woman in the world, she is pretty, kind-hearted, not only did she not ask her to pay back the money, but she was also very polite. Who knows who will be lucky enough to marry her in the future.
The fragrant aroma penetrated everyone's noses, and they finally reacted to the scene that had just happened.
Chen Guang: "Fuck! Did Guiyi come to bring her food?"
Situ Mingliang frowned. He suspected that he had not woken up yet. Seeing such a fantastic scene so early in the morning, he pondered for a long time: "Why?"
Sang Mian glanced at him in confusion: "Why?"
Situ Mingliang: "Why did Guiyi send you breakfast?"
Sang Mian said in a deep voice: "Personal charm, you won't understand even if I tell you, so don't ask."
Situ Mingliang: “…” Why do I feel like I’m being treated like Versailles?
Since Sang Mian didn't want to talk, he tactfully shut up.
Sang Mian shared breakfast with Bai Tang and Xia Qing. The portion Qin Miao brought was just enough for them to fill up.
The other players touched their rumbling stomachs and choked on their saliva. They wondered, why is the gap between people so big?
At eight o'clock, the landlord came to them in clean leather shoes and said, "Good morning, everyone."
Sang Mian greeted him with a smile: "Good morning, landlord, have you considered selling the apartment to me?"
Landlord “…is not selling.”
Sang Mian curled her lips in regret. The landlord was as firm as ever.
The landlord handed a blue notebook to Situ Mingliang: "Here are the outstanding bills for all tenants. You must collect all the rent."
"Okay." Situ Mingliang took the notebook and scanned everyone's stomach thoughtfully: "Mr. Landlord, how do we solve the problem of three meals a day?"
The landlord smiled with his frighteningly pale face: "If you don't mind, you can go to the cafeteria on the first floor to eat, but the food is not very tasty."
Situ Mingliang's question hit the nail on the head. They hadn't eaten for almost a day and a night, and they were all starving. And in a weird game, it was good enough to have a bite to eat, so why would they care about whether it was delicious or not?
Situ Mingliang said: "Thank you, Mr. Landlord. We will go to collect the rent after dinner."
Shen Guang sighed: "Our brother Mingliang is still reliable, he always does practical things."
However, after arriving at the cafeteria, they discovered that the food here was not only unpalatable, it was simply inedible!
Wouldn't it be like heaven after taking a bite of the moldy steamed buns and the green soy milk?
Meanwhile, Sang Mian and the other two were drinking soy milk, looking as if they were living a peaceful and tranquil life.
In the end, the players gave up eating because they couldn't eat anymore, and returned to the seventh floor with their laptops, intending to collect rent from the tenants on the seventh floor.
"Mr. Zhou of 707 owes 2 billion ghost money." Situ Mingliang read out the amount on the notebook softly: "Who among us will knock on the door?"
The players were silent, and no one wanted to knock on the door. The tenants they faced were not humans, but terrifying, man-eating monsters.
Everyone's eyes were focused on Sang Mian.
Someone said, "Doesn't she know Guiyi? She should be safe here."
Sang Mian shrugged: "Let me do it."
"No!" Xia Qing grabbed Sang Mian's arm worriedly: "It's too dangerous to ask for rent! What if something goes wrong!"
"Don't worry, I'm sure of this little thing." Sang Mian touched Xia Qing's head comfortingly: "Communicate with the tenants in a friendly manner and treat them with sincerity. I believe they will pay."
After saying that, she knocked on the door of room 715.
Situ Mingliang kindly reminded him, "You dialed the wrong number. It's 707, not 715."
Chen Guang said with a sour tone: "She's scared, brother Mingliang, have you forgotten that the strange guy who just brought her food lives in room 715." He snorted twice: "You sounded very righteous, but I didn't expect you to be so cowardly."
Sang Mian rolled her eyes. She was not stupid, so she would definitely ask someone she knew first.
Xia Qing glared at them both in anger: "If you can do it, go ahead. You ate a few lemons and you're talking so sourly."
The door creaked open.
When Qin Miao saw that it was Sang Mian, she smiled and turned sideways to let Sang Mian enter the room.
Half an hour later, the two of them walked out of the room arm in arm.
Although Sang Mian acted very familiar with the woman, the other players were still very scared. That was a cannibalistic monster! And the monster's aura was very high. What if one of them got upset and started killing people?
A player trembled and said, "Why did she bring out the weirdness..."
Zhuang Feng's face turned pale: "Sang Mian, you should think more about us."
Sang Mian ignored them. What was wrong with this group of people? Was Miaomiao going to eat them?
She pointed to 707 and asked, "Do you know this tenant?"
Qin Miao nodded obediently: "I know him."
Sang Mian: "I want to ask him for rent, will he give it to me?"
Qin Miao grinned, revealing her white teeth: "I can beat him to death."
…
It took the players an hour to calm down. During this hour, they witnessed the monster breaking into the tenant's room, dragging the tenant out and beating him up. Screams immediately filled the entire haunted apartment. After the beating, the tenant immediately took out 2 billion to pay the rent.
Situ Mingliang was in a daze when he held the 200,000 ghost money. Could it be done so easily?
The worst-off was the tenant of 707, who was the one who won the Angel Grand Prize on the first day. He was originally immersed in the joy of getting 1 billion ghost money for free, thinking of having a big meal today, but he didn't expect that the money was snatched away before he could even warm it up.
The players were trembling in fear. This strange young lady was so cruel.
Sang Mian coughed lightly: "Who's the next one to knock on the door?"
The players instantly became silent, and no one spoke.
Shen Guang suddenly said, "What next one? You've already knocked on it."
Xia Qing was stunned by his ugly face. She put her hands on her hips and yelled, "You want to sit back and enjoy the fruits of your labor without doing any work?"
Shen Guang stretched his neck and said, "Anyway, Guiyi is her friend and there's no danger. What's wrong with her knocking? Why does she have to let us take the risk?"
This statement hit Sang Mian's sore spot precisely. Was she being taken for a fool? Not being thanked was fine, but being taken for granted, wasn't that like taking advantage of her!
Sang Mian said briefly, "Then you can play by yourself."
Then she left gracefully, and the other players looked at her back and hurriedly chased after her. Sang Mian's strength was obvious to all, and they would never let go of the opportunity to win without any effort.
Only Shen Guang and Situ Mingliang were left in the corridor. Situ Mingliang gave him a complicated look: "Your mouth will hurt you sooner or later."
After saying that, he left too.
Shen Guang stood there blankly. The cold and strange aura in the corridor soon spread all over his body. He was the only one left on the seventh floor. The unreasonable fear made him rush back to his room.
He leaned against the door and muttered to himself, "It's a group mission anyway, so everyone will benefit. At worst, we can just stay at home, which will reduce the risk of life."
*
Sang Mian and her group went to the first floor, and she asked Qin Miao, "Are there any particularly difficult tenants on the first floor, the kind that even you can't deal with?"
Qin Miao thought for a moment and replied, "The tenant of 102 is a woman. She is very powerful and has a very bad temper because of a broken heart. Other tenants dare not disturb her. I heard that a monster accidentally walked into the wrong room and went to her room, so she ate the monster alive."
Xia Qing covered her mouth: "Oh my God! Is it so cruel! She is so scary! Then how are we supposed to ask for rent?"
Sang Mian pondered for a moment and said, "We can't confront this situation head-on. We can start from the needs of others and help her get over the pain of losing love. Then she will be willing to pay the rent."
Xia Qing listened very carefully, her eyes were full of admiration: "Sister Sang is so kind!"
Bai Tang nodded: "The best way to get over a broken heart is to find a new partner. We can start from this point."
"That's right!" Sang Mian patted Bai Tang's shoulder: "Then let's find her a partner!"
The onlookers behind them were once again shocked by the three of them's bizarre train of thought. Finding a partner for Guiyi? Is this something a normal person could come up with? Not to mention the feasibility, would Guiyi go on a blind date obediently?
Sang Mian was troubled again, "We don't know any male weirdos, Miaomiao, do you have any good candidates?"
Qin Miao shook her head frantically: "The tenant of 102 is very famous. The men in the Haunted Apartment avoid her when they see her."
This sentence ruled out all the men in the apartment. Sang Mian could only look at the group of players behind him: "Are any of you looking for a partner?"
Zhuang Feng said seriously, "It's going to be my tenth anniversary with my girlfriend soon."
Yan Xingyu: "My son is three years old."
Situ Mingliang: "I had a white moonlight for eight years... Although she is gone, I promised her that I would never marry."
Two male players also held each other's hands: "We just fell in love."
Sang Mian: “…”
There were so many males but I couldn't find a single one. What bad luck! She held her chin in distress. Where could she find a single male?
Suddenly, an idea occurred to her: "Miao Miao, does the landlord have a girlfriend?"
Qin Miao: "No, I've never seen the landlord bring a girl home."
Oh! This is a match made in heaven, a handsome single landlord and a heartbroken and irritable girl, a perfect couple!
What’s more, the landlord has been single for many years. Maybe after he gets out of being single, he will give up his obsession with the haunted apartment and sell it to her, killing two birds with one stone!
Sang Mian immediately took out a pen and paper and wrote a long paragraph. As she wrote, Xia Qing read to her.
"Hello, Miss 102. I fell in love with you the first time I saw your face. We are a perfect match made in heaven. If possible, would you be my girlfriend?"
Xia Qing covered her mouth: "Wow!* Sister Sang, you are so talented in writing!"
"Is it very good?" Sang Mian felt a little guilty, "It's just so-so."
Bai Tang commented: "Although there are no fancy words, every word is sincere and reveals a deep love. It is a great love letter!"
If Lou Zangyue saw this love letter, he would probably be so angry that he would vomit blood. Isn't it just a copy of his love letter! Not a single word was changed.
Sang Mian handed the love letter to Qin Miao and said, "Please buy a bunch of red roses and give them to the lady in Room 102 together with the love letter."
Xia Qing: "Then what else do we need to do?"
Bai Tang and Sang Mian smiled at each other and said, "Of course, we will arrange a date between the landlord and Miss 102."
From Qin Miao, Sang Mian learned that the landlord lived in the room at the end of the eighth floor, so she set off with her men.
The corridor on the eighth floor was still covered with red carpet, and exquisite vintage wall lamps were hung on the walls. Everyone tiptoed to the room at the end. This room looked different from the other doors because it was the only double door.
Yan Xingyu stopped and frowned worriedly: "President Sang, do you really want to do this? What if the landlord doesn't want to?"
Sang Mian looked as if it was impossible: "He will definitely thank me. It's so hard to find a girlfriend in this world. Not only did I help him get his rent back, I also helped him find a beautiful girlfriend. He must be so moved that he cried."
Situ Mingliang asked an important question: "How do you know that the lady in Room 102 is beautiful? Have you seen her?"
"I haven't seen it." Sang Mian said as a matter of course: "Girls are all beautiful creatures without exception."
Situ Mingliang: "..." The tenant of 102 is not a living person. What if she died tragically? Wouldn't the landlord have to run away on the spot?
He didn't say this out loud because Sang Mian looked so confident, so he was very curious about the outcome.
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Sang Mian rang the landlord's doorbell. She sighed, "The landlord's room is really nice. My room is small and shabby. I really hope I can exchange it with the landlord."
Players: "..."Are your ideas too grand?
After knocking for about three minutes, the landlord yelled from inside the room, "Who is it?"
Sang Mian cleared his throat: "It's me, landlord brother!"
It was her again! She kept asking him if he wanted to sell the house, and now she even chased him to his room to ask. The landlord was so annoyed that he crushed a cup and said, "I will not sell the house to you! Just give up on this idea!"
"Landlord, you misunderstood. That's not why I came to you." Sang Mian said sincerely.
Not buying a house? The landlord's tone softened. He leaned close to the door and said, "What do you want to do?"
Sang Mian cleared his throat and said sincerely, "I want to introduce you to a girlfriend."
After he finished speaking, there was silence in the room. Sang Mian waited for almost ten minutes but didn’t hear any response from the landlord.
She continued to ring the doorbell: "Brother landlord, please say something! Are you too happy? Don't worry, this is a free matchmaking service, and you won't be charged."
The landlord was silent for a long time. Is this woman crazy? Does she know what she is talking about?
After watching for a long time without any response, Xia Qing looked at the door suspiciously and said, "Is it because the landlord is not good at that, so he ignores you?"
"No way!" Sang Mian was speechless: "He looks quite healthy, just a little thin, a little short, and his hairstyle is a little ugly, but he shouldn't be bad, right?"
"You don't understand this." Bai Tang said mysteriously, "You can't tell if they are not good in that aspect. Patients often hide it very well, but they are extremely afraid of being alone with women, just like the landlord."
