Li Wang looked troubled. "Since Mrs. Yao is unwilling to verify, then I'll make the call myself."
He took out his phone, found Yao Wanchang's contact information, dialed the number, and put it on speakerphone.
The phone was answered quickly: "Mr. Li? I remember paying this month's rent already. Is there anything else?"
“Mr. Yao, I am currently in your home. Our landlord is no longer willing to rent the house to you. Please move out within a week.”
Yao Wanchang clicked his tongue. "Why the rush? Where am I supposed to find a house in such a short time? Is there some misunderstanding? Haven't we always worked together very well?"
Li Wang laughed and said, "Because you damaged the house so badly, our landlord is very unhappy."
Someone called Yao Wanchang, but he absentmindedly gave a perfunctory reply: "We'll talk about this later, I have something very important to do right now..."
Yan Qiao scoffed, "What important matter? Do you want to see Master Pei? Master Pei isn't that low-class; he wouldn't stoop to your level."
The live stream chat exploded at that moment!
[666 Jin Lu's apartment is actually rented!]
Are wealthy housewives now renting apartments?
[But it must be impressive to be able to afford this place, right? You can tell the rent here isn't cheap.]
[You don't understand. Renting is simple; many middle-class people can afford it. Buying is different; you have to verify your funds.]
Without a certain amount of savings, you don't even qualify to buy.
There are only two possibilities for Jin Lu's husband renting a house here.
Either he loves renting, or he only has enough money for rent.
Yan Qiao's words touched a nerve with Jin Lu, making her jump up in anger.
"Yan Qiao, what do you mean?"
Yan Qiao shrugged. "It didn't mean anything. I just meant you shouldn't try to put on a show."
Li Wang hung up the phone and smiled slightly.
"Mrs. Yao, do you believe this house is rented?"
Jin Lu's face turned pale. "I don't believe it! Who knows if it's really my husband on the other end of the phone? Maybe you just found someone to act! My husband said before that he would transfer this house to me after I give birth."
Yao Wanchang couldn't possibly be lying to her!
Li Wang had no choice but to produce the property ownership certificate.
“I might lie to you, but the property certificate shouldn’t lie to you. The name on it is the owner of the house, your landlord.”
[Ahhh, it's Yan Qiao! It's actually Yan Qiao!]
Holy crap, this is amazing! What a satisfying story of face-slapping!
[So from the moment Yan Qiao entered, she knew that Jin Lu had rented this place!]
[She definitely knew! Yan Qiao asked Jin Lu from the beginning if it was rented, and Jin Lu denied it!]
[I think Jin Lu herself doesn't seem to know the apartment is rented. Could she have been scammed?]
Yan Qiao said, "I didn't originally intend to take the house back, but you've damaged it too badly. This painting, this crystal chandelier, this sofa, the TV—all of them are damaged to some extent. Not only do you have to move out, but you also have to pay compensation."
Jin Lu's face was deathly pale; the blow was too great, and she was swaying unsteadily.
[If I were the landlord, I'd be even angrier than Yan Qiao! So all these things belonged to her; that painting alone is worth over ten thousand!]
Jin Lu shook her head and took a few steps back in disbelief.
"I don't believe it. You must have invited this person. All of you, get out. You're not welcome in my house."
Yan Qiao sneered, "It's not that you don't welcome me, it's that I simply didn't want to come. If you don't believe me, do you need me to call the police and have them come and verify for me?"
Jin Lu quickly exclaimed, "No need!"
Yao Wanchang is coming soon. It's so embarrassing to cause so much trouble at this time.
He'll definitely be angry.
"Perhaps...perhaps my husband has too many houses and there's been a mistake. Renting a house is fine, it's not a shameful thing. Today, my husband has a distinguished guest visiting, so it's not a good time to talk about these things. Mr. Li, please come back another day."
Li Wang looked at Yan Qiao and asked for her opinion.
Yan Qiao nodded. "Alright, then let's do it another day. I'll take my leave now."
Jin Lu bit her lip, and had no choice but to ask her to stay: "Yan Qiao, Third Master is almost here. Are you sure you want to leave at this time?"
Yan Qiao curled her lips slightly, "I know exactly what you're up to. You guys enjoy your meal, I won't participate. Sister Weng Yun, you should come with me too."
Yao Wanchang's immediate superior came here specifically because of Weng Yun.
Jin Lu snorted and deliberately said, "Have you thought this through? If you miss this opportunity, you'll never have the chance to meet someone like Third Master again. Crossing social classes isn't easy."
Weng Yun hesitated for a moment, then looked at Yan Qiao and said, "Qiao Qiao, why don't you stay? We're still recording the show."
Hearing her say that, Yan Qiao knew that Weng Yun did not want to leave.
She nodded and didn't try to persuade her any further.
"Then I'll be going now. You all do as you please. Mrs. Yao, remember to pack your things quickly and move out as soon as possible."
Yan Qiao left just like that, leaving only Weng Yun and Jin Lu in the huge house.
Jin Lu gently stroked her hair and forced a smile: "Excuse me, I'm going back to my room to touch up my makeup. Sister Weng Yun, please have a seat."
This apartment is rented, and it's been a huge blow to her; she needs to calm down.
Back in her room, she immediately called Yao Wanchang and questioned him about the house.
Yao Wanchang said impatiently, "So what if it's rented? Have I wronged you? Don't worry about these details. Once the deal is finalized today, I can give you as many apartments in Zixingyuan as you want!"
Jin Lu bit her lip, finally feeling a little better.
"By the way, is Weng Yun still there?"
"Yes, Yan Qiao has already left."
Yao Wanchang didn't care about Yan Qiao and said, "As long as Weng Yun is here, you can get ready, we'll be there soon."
After hanging up the phone, Jin Lu nervously touched up her makeup, determined to present her best self.
She curled her lips into a smile and walked out.
"Sister Weng Yun, we'll be there soon."
Weng Yun stood up, feeling inexplicably nervous.
She even got to meet the legendary Third Master Pei.
Given her status, this is not an occasion she should be attending; we should thank Jin Lu.
[So even award-winning actresses need to do this?]
It's just socializing; isn't that what ordinary working people do?
[What's wrong with getting exposure in front of big shots and gaining more resources?]
A short while later, the door opened.
The people who walked in were Lin Kuan and Yao Wanchang.
【？？？】
These two look quite old, don't they? Which one is Master Pei, and which one is Jin Lu's husband?
[Dudu misled me! Wasn't Master Pei supposed to be a tall, rich, and handsome guy? That big-bellied guy in front of me is nowhere near handsome or tall!]
The second one is a bit better, but she's still too old.
Soon, Yao Wanchang's fat hand landed on Jin Lu's waist.
"Jin Lu, this is Chairman Lin."
Jin Lu smiled and nodded, "Hello, Chairman Lin."
