The landlord lived just upstairs from her. Xia Zhichu went upstairs and rang the doorbell, and soon someone came out to open the door.
Perhaps he didn't expect the visitor to be Xia Zhichu, so the landlord came out wearing only shorts.
Xia Zhichu looked away awkwardly, then said, "Since the landlord is not convenient, I'll come up later."
"It's not inconvenient, come in and sit down."
There was a lustful gleam in the landlord's eyes. He naturally recognized Xia Zhichu, the tenant downstairs. He had bargained with him for a long time when renting the house.
The landlord agreed to rent the house to her at a low price because she was beautiful, but the contract term was one year.
"Then you can clean up first."
Xia Zhichu felt really uncomfortable. She came to someone else's house and saw such an indecent scene for the first time. If it weren't for the rent, she would definitely leave right now.
The landlord was worried about scaring people away, so he turned around and put on his pants, then called Xia Zhichu in.
Xia Zhichu sat down on the sofa and stated his purpose straight away, "Mr. Landlord, I'm moving out in a few days, so I came here to tell you."
When the other party heard this, his expression changed slightly and he asked, "Didn't we agree to stay for a year? Why are you checking out out of the blue?"
Xia Zhichu told the truth, "It's like this, my workplace is quite far from here, and it's really inconvenient to commute. I've been thinking about it for a long time before deciding to move.
However, we originally signed a one-year contract, and I paid a full year's rent. Could you please refund me a few months' rent?"
It turns out he was here to refund the money!
The landlord's expression immediately changed, and he said rudely, "How can that be? We agreed that once the contract is signed, the rent cannot be refunded, no matter how many months you live here."
Xia Zhichu knew this, but at that time she thought she would be staying there for a long time, so she agreed to this clause.
Now that things have changed, she has no choice but to negotiate with the landlord. After all, the annual rent is more than 10,000 yuan, which is not a small amount of money for her.
The landlord glanced at her with ill intent for a long time, then suddenly changed his mind and said, "It's not impossible to refund the rent. How about this, I just happened to be unwell recently, and there's no one at home. How about you help me clean up the house and cook a meal for me."
Xia Zhichu didn't expect that the other party would actually put forward such conditions.
The landlord's legs and feet are indeed not very convenient. I heard that it was caused by a car accident before.
In addition, the landlord's wife went back to her parents' home two days ago. Xia Zhichu thought that the landlord's wife had helped her a lot before, and occasionally gave her some things. She was also a warm-hearted person. The most important thing was that whenever there was any problem at home, the landlord's wife would quickly send someone to deal with it.
It would be really inhumane to refuse like this.
She thought about it, nodded and agreed.
The landlord was very proud. He didn't expect Xia Zhichu to be so easy to deceive.
After welcoming the person in, he locked the door.
Seeing the mess in the hall, Xia Zhichu went over to clean it up. Unexpectedly, the moment she bent down, she met the landlord's staring eyes.
Xia Zhichu frowned and quickly hugged his chest.
The scene of Shen Liang giving herself to Mr. Wu last time came to her mind, and she suddenly had a bad premonition in her heart, and she immediately proposed to leave.
"I suddenly remembered that there's something urgent at home, so I have to go home first."
As she spoke, she quickly trotted to the door. As soon as she grabbed the door handle, the landlord caught up with her and hugged her from behind.
The unpleasant smell of alcohol mixed with the smell of cigarettes made Xia Zhichu feel extremely nauseous.
In a panic, she pushed the landlord away and said angrily, "Sir, please respect yourself."
The landlord dropped his pretense, revealing his true face. He said bluntly, "If you leave now, I won't refund your money. But if you stay with me, I'll pay you back the rent for the whole year, not just the next few months."
Shameless!
Xia Zhichu realized that he had fallen into the landlord's trap and felt a little scared.
"I don't want the money. Open the door, or I'll call someone."
She leaned her back against the wall and grabbed a high-heeled shoe from the shoe rack next to her. The heel was thin and long enough to protect herself.
When the landlord heard her say this, he laughed sinisterly and continued to limp towards her.
"Don't come over here!"
Xia Zhichu pointed his heel at him.
The landlord was still getting closer, and he pounced on her with such a boldness that he snatched the shoes from Xia Zhichu's hand and threw them on the ground, then hugged her and was about to kiss her.
"This floor is all mine. No one will come up even if you scream at the top of your lungs."
Even though he was lame, he was still a man after all, and his strength was so great that Xia Zhichu couldn't struggle.
The disgusting smell made Xia Zhichu want to vomit.
While she was struggling to resist, she kept hitting the door with her back to attract the attention of the tenants downstairs.
It was the rush hour after get off work, and people were coming back one after another. When they heard the noise upstairs, they all looked puzzled.
"Is there a quarrel upstairs? It's so loud?" someone asked.
"That's not right. The landlord's wife has gone back to her parents' home, and the landlord is the only one at home."
Someone remembered this incident and considered that the landlord had difficulty walking, so they worried that something had happened and hurried upstairs to check the situation.
"Mr. Landlord, what happened?"
The enthusiastic neighbor came up and knocked on the door and asked.
The landlord's face changed slightly, and he quickly covered Xia Zhichu's mouth, signaling her not to make a sound. If the tenants downstairs knew what he had done, he would not be able to stay in this community.
If this gets to the ears of the tigress at home, she will definitely make a fuss every day and he will have no good days.
However, at this moment, Xia Zhichu bit the landlord's palm hard, bent his legs, and hit him directly in the crotch.
The next second, a shrill howl of pain was heard.
The tenant, who had been waiting for no response for a long time, was just about to leave when he heard a scream and continued knocking on the door.
Xia Zhichu was about to shout for help, but just as he opened his mouth, he suddenly closed it again.
She picked up her high heels from the floor and fiercely pressed them against the landlord's neck, lowering her voice to warn him, "If you don't want this to become public knowledge and end up in jail, give me the key."
She also wanted to escape now, but she was a woman who came to the landlord's house and stayed with the landlord alone with a man and a woman, causing such a big commotion. She was afraid that everyone would think it was bad.
After all, in the eyes of all the tenants, the landlord looks honest, but she is different. She just got divorced and was still desperately going on blind dates some time ago.
The tenants downstairs are all gossips. They always talk about her behind her back. Maybe this time they will think that she is trying to seduce the landlord, and then she will be the one who suffers.
Although Xia Zhichu was scared, his mind was very clear.
Therefore, she chose not to make a fuss about it and waited until the people outside left before leaving.
