Liang Weijie wanted to have a good talk with Yan Qiao, slip her some money, and smooth things over.
Who knew that Yan Qiao's attitude would be so firm, insisting that he leave without any room for negotiation.
The other side has so many people; he'll be at a disadvantage if he faces them head-on.
I had no choice but to compromise and leave first.
After dealing with Liang Weijie and his family, Yan Qiao felt incredibly refreshed.
Finally, I called Brother Li and asked him to arrange for someone else to come and manage the place.
First, a cleaning company came to clean the premises and carried out comprehensive disinfection and pest control.
An agreement was signed with a cleaning company to arrange for sanitation workers to work in shifts and dispose of garbage at designated locations.
I also contacted a shelter and they took all the stray cats and dogs away.
After such a thorough cleaning, these old and dilapidated buildings have been completely transformed.
Yan Qiao also reminded everyone in the group chat to pay the rent in full before the 15th, otherwise 1,000 yuan of rent would be waived this month.
Tenants who have already paid rent should go downstairs to find the new management staff to get a refund of 1,000 yuan.
They also require people to report any malfunctions in the rental facilities, and to repair or replace those that need repairing or replacing them.
These messages caused an uproar in the rental group.
What does this mean? Is there still rent I can get refunded?
Where do I pick it up? Who's the new manager?
I'm moving out, is it still possible to cancel the lease?
[Get it downstairs! I'm already in line, it's getting much better, come on over!]
I just got home from work, and wow, the neighborhood is suddenly so clean!
[I heard the landlord came to inspect and fired the previous manager!]
[Landlord? Isn't the landlord Yan Qiao?]
Yanqiao's few old and dilapidated buildings are not large, only eight buildings.
However, it has an outer perimeter and parking lot entrances and exits, forming a relatively independent community.
It was just that it wasn't managed well before, so anyone could come and go as they pleased, and even non-tenants' cars could drive in and park.
This has resulted in local renters having nowhere to park their cars.
Yan Qiao also asked someone to redesign the parking lot and set up checkpoints so that tenants could apply for monthly passes for only 150 yuan a month.
In this way, the parking downstairs becomes more organized, which not only looks more comfortable but also provides more space for pedestrians to move around.
They also contacted a landscaping company to tidy up the flower beds in the community, lay lawns, and plant greenery along the roads. It really looks quite nice now.
Yan Qiao only needed to provide the money; she didn't need to worry about anything else.
All you need to know is that everything is functioning correctly.
Zheng Ling also heard the news and hurriedly came out of the house and ran downstairs.
When I got downstairs, I suddenly realized that the hallway was no longer dark; motion-sensor lights had been installed.
Moreover, the damp and strange smell was gone, and the floor was very clean.
Even the park downstairs has undergone a complete transformation.
The newly hired cleaners are still cleaning, and the plants are still being planted.
A long queue had formed downstairs; some were paying rent, some were getting their rent refunded, and others were reporting repair issues.
As she approached, she heard people whispering and discussing.
"If things can stay this way on our side, I won't back down."
"The mahjong parlors are all closed. I heard that someone led the charge and smashed all the mahjong machines. Liang Weijie didn't dare to utter a word and ran away in a sorry state."
"I also heard that rents are going to be adjusted later. Does that mean the rent will go up?"
With the park so well developed, raising the rent is perfectly reasonable.
But we're all just working people, and even a raise of a hundred or two feels painful.
...
Yan Qiao also had someone contact the local police station.
The girls who were harassed by the drunkard reported it to the police, so their information should be kept here.
They were each given 50,000 yuan in compensation as compensation for the community's mismanagement.
After doing all this, Yan Qiao finally breathed a sigh of relief.
She leaned back in the passenger seat with her eyes closed, looking exhausted.
"Having so many houses isn't necessarily a good thing."
Collecting rent is enjoyable, but it can also easily lead to problems.
Pei Jingzhan gently rubbed her fluffy head, soothing her.
Are you hungry?
After working so hard for so long without eating anything, it's already dinnertime.
Yan Qiao rubbed her hand against his palm, "Where should we go to eat?"
Pei Jingzhan skillfully maneuvered the steering wheel.
"Keep this a surprise."
Pei Jingzhan brought Yan Qiao to a revolving Western restaurant on the top floor.
The environment is elegant and offers a panoramic view of the city at night.
After finishing her meal, Yan Qiao suddenly wanted to ride the Ferris wheel.
Pei Jingzhan originally wanted to book the whole place, but Yan Qiao felt that if only two people were playing, the amusement park would look empty and wouldn't be very interesting.
Like other tourists, they bought tickets and obediently lined up on the side.
The Ferris wheel ascended slowly, and as it rose higher, their view became increasingly expansive.
Yan Qiao intertwined her fingers with his and said, "You might not believe it, but this is my first time riding a Ferris wheel."
Pei Jingzhan said, "Why wouldn't you believe me? This is my first time doing this too."
Yan Qiao looked surprised. "Mr. Pei, you're already thirty."
Pei Jingzhan sat back, his long legs casually stretched out, one hand resting on Yan Qiao's back.
Seemingly nonchalant, yet possessive to the extreme.
"Not very interested."
For him, the amusement park thing is less important than getting two more contracts approved.
Yan Qiao leaned against the side, her back to Pei Jingzhan, looking outside.
We're almost at the top.
"And now?"
Pei Jingzhan stretched out an arm and wrapped it around her waist from behind, pressing her back against his chest, and his thin lips touched her ear.
"As long as it's with you, I'll feel content no matter how boring the task is."
Yan Qiao gazed at the night view outside and slowly curled the corners of her lips into a smile.
"Qiaoqiao, please forgive me, okay?"
Yan Qiao muttered, "Isn't it too easy to forgive you so quickly?"
“Of course not,” Pei Jingzhan said, “because every day in the future, I will love you more than the day before.”
Yan Qiao pouted, "Then you're not allowed to lie to me again."
Pei Jingzhan smiled helplessly, "Once is enough for this kind of experience."
It almost broke his old bones.
Yan Qiao touched her red lips and curled the corners of her lips.
"Stamp it."
Under the night sky, the image of the two embracing and kissing on the Ferris wheel is frozen at its highest point.
It was late at night, and Yan Qiao was exhausted after a busy day.
I originally planned to go back to the courtyard house.
But Pei Jingzhan said, "You still have Lu Qi over there. Do you want her to watch me kiss you?"
Yan Qiao thought it was indeed a bit inconvenient, "Then I can't just let Sister Lu Qi leave, can I?"
Pei Jingzhan coaxed softly, "If you don't let her leave, we'll go somewhere else."
"Where are we going? It's not to the Pei family, is it?"
Pei Jingzhan pulled her into his arms. "I don't usually live at home."
The No. 1 Mansion also houses his usual residence.
Yan Qiao thought about it for a moment, but she was too tired to do anything else, so she let him be.
Pei Jingzhan lives in One Mansion, a duplex apartment.
Yan Qiao curiously wandered around the house, "You live in such a big place all by yourself?"
Pei Jingzhan: "...It's not as big as a courtyard house, is it?"
Yan Qiao touched her nose, and it seemed so.
She ran barefoot to him and looked up at him.
"Then where will I sleep?"
Pei Jingzhan hooked his arm around her slender waist and pulled her up, and Yan Qiao naturally wrapped her legs around his strong and muscular waist.
He carried Yan Qiao upstairs like that.
"Naturally, it's the master bedroom."
