Chapter 8: The Dilemma

"Bang bang bang. ”

Just as Lin Qirong was pondering whether to take her out to play somewhere, there was a knock on the door.

"Open the door, I'm the landlord. ”

Lin Qirong frowned, the place where he lived was indeed rented, but he didn't know why this landlord suddenly came to him.

Turning the door open, a middle-aged man appeared in front of him, and behind him was a chubby woman.

"I'm here to collect the rent. The middle-aged man looked at Lin Qirong and said, his mouth opened, revealing his big yellow and black teeth, and a smell of smoke came to his face, which made people uncomfortable.

"Collecting rent?" Lin Qirong was stunned for a moment, and then remembered, today seems to be the day to pay rent.

It turned out that the owner of this body rented this house, using the method of depositing two to pay one, and he had to pay the next month's rent at this time every month, which was about more than 2,000 yuan.

In a place like Shanghai, where every inch of land is valuable, more than 2,000 yuan for one bedroom and one hall is very cheap, of course, the accommodation conditions are average, and it is impossible to compare with high-end communities.

It's just that it seems that he has no money on him for the time being.

"Can't pay it?"

seemed to see Lin Qirong's embarrassment, and the landlady grinned.

"That, can you delay for two days, I can have money in these two days. Lin Qirong had to bow his head and plead.

In my memory, he was also a screenwriter, but he was much worse than himself, he was a freelancer, and he did ghostwriting work, that is, he wrote his own scripts and then gave them to others to earn a little hard money.

With such a profession, you really can't make much money, let alone get ahead.

It seems that tomorrow is the day when I deliver my manuscript, and then I should have money.

"Every time your rent is paid for several days, where do I have the time to collect it from you?"

The middle-aged man showed a look of impatience and said viciously.

"I put down a sentence, either hand it over now or get out, and a lot of people are waiting to rent my house. ”

"Dad. Lin Yitong was originally by Lin Qirong's side, but he was startled, hid behind Lin Qirong, and shouted timidly.

"Don't be so loud, don't scare the kids. ”

Lin Qirong glanced at the middle-aged man coldly.

"It's not that I don't pay it, but these two days are when I submit the manuscript, and then I will have money, and I promise that I will not be in arrears. ”

"Don't talk nonsense. The middle-aged man waved his hand, "Anyway, that's it, if you don't hand it over, get out." ”

Lin Qirong frowned and looked at the middle-aged woman behind him, "Sister Chen, can you be tolerant for two days?"

"Xiaolin," the chubby woman shook her head, "the whole building, you drag it every time, it is difficult for us to do, if you can't pay it, we will terminate the contract, I will not deduct your deposit, and return it all to you." ”

"What else?" the middle-aged man scolded, "According to the contract, if you don't pay the rent within the time limit, you can choose to terminate the contract and deduct a month's deposit." ”

"Dad, Tongtong is so scared, don't we have a place to live?" Lin Yitong trembled behind Lin Qirong, and was frightened by the middle-aged man.

"Ding Dong, issue an urgent task: the little master is frightened, please ask the host to vent for her, reward: 500 points for daddy. ”

The sound of the system seemed a little angry, as if Lin Yitong was frightened and made it very unhappy.

Lin Qirong smiled bitterly in his heart, this is his own fault, according to the contract, he did breach the contract, they are willing to grace for a few days, but they are not willing to have nothing to do.

Looking at their physique, I can't beat them myself.

Considering the actual situation of the host, the system provides the following help: The middle-aged man, Chi An, decided to drive the host away because the host had spotted him peeping on a female tenant on the third floor.

In addition, what he fears most is that his wife finds out about him, as well as his private money hidden under the shoe cabinet. ”

I see.

A smile appeared at the corner of Lin Qirong's mouth.

"Okay, I'll terminate the contract, Sister Chen, thank you for taking care of me during this time. ”

The middle-aged man Chi An was overjoyed, what he was most afraid of was that Lin Qirong told his wife about his voyeurism, if he left, there would be no such trouble.

"Brother Chi, that girl in 303 is super good-looking, isn't it?"

"yes," Chi An replied subconsciously, "super good figure." ”

"Oh!" Lin Qirong sighed meaningfully, "No wonder I often find you wandering around that floor." ”

Chi An's face turned pale, and he could already feel the anger that began to rise behind him.

"By the way, Brother Chi, although you want to drive me away now, you have invited us to drink many times before with the private money you have managed to hold, and we are still very grateful, but unfortunately I will not have the opportunity to invite you back in the future.

Rest assured, we will keep your private money hidden under the shoe closet. ”

Lin Qirong made up for it again.

"Where is such a thing?" Chi An replied in a panic.

"Chi An. Sister Chen in the back couldn't hold back any longer, and grabbed his ears with a loud roar.

Because Chi An showed his feet in front of her, she subconsciously thought that the second thing Lin Qirong said was also true, and whether it was true or not, just go back and take a look.

"Ah, wife, it hurts, it hurts. Chi An screamed, "This bastard cheated me." ”

"Wouldn't it be nice for Sister Chen to go back and take a look?" Lin Qirong smiled happily, "Brother Chi seems to like that girl downstairs very much, after all, she is young and has a good figure." ”

"Come back with me. Sister Chen pulled him downstairs, turned around and said to Lin Qirong, "You too, pack your things now, I'll return the deposit to you in a while, you are not welcome here." ”

Lin Qirong shrugged his shoulders and waved his hand, "Got it, Sister Chen, you must be optimistic about Brother Chi, after all, people of this age are the easiest to steal." ”

"Hmph. Sister Chen didn't speak, and pulled Chi An downstairs.

There was also Chi An's scream in the corridor, "Wife, it was that bastard who slandered me, I didn't." ”

Lin Qirong breathed a sigh of relief, squatted down and hugged Lin Yitong, "Don't be afraid, baby, Dad drove the bad guys away." ”

Lin Yitong nodded with tears in his eyes, "Tongtong is not afraid, Dad will protect Tongtong." ”

"Yes, Daddy will always protect you. Lin Qirong nodded heavily and hugged her in his arms.

"Ding Dong, congratulations to the host for completing the urgent task, rewarding Daddy with 500 points, existing points: 1800 points. ”

"Ding Dong, now release an urgent task: the host and the little master are about to be homeless, please find a place to settle as soon as possible, and never allow the little master to live in dangerous public places and other places, and complete the task reward: 500 Daddy points. ”

Lin Qirong smiled bitterly, today's test is really enough, and before he can recover from it, he was kicked out.

Staying in a hotel? It's hundreds a night, and it's hard to say when you'll be able to make money, and you still have to eat and drink.

With the returned deposit, I will have less than 4,000 yuan at most, what will I take to live in a hotel?

※※※

Two hours later, Lin Qirong was carrying a large backpack, dragging a suitcase, holding Lin Yitong's little hand, and standing on the side of the road with a blank expression.

"Dad, where are we going?" asked Lin Yitong timidly.

If it was a recording show now, Lin Qirong would happily say to her: "Baby, let's go on a trip." ”

But now, he is speechless.

After thinking about it in his mind, he finally took out his phone and dialed a call.

"Hey. A man's voice came from the other side.

Lin Qirong took a deep breath and roared.

"Qiao Shao, the rivers and lakes are in emergency. ”
