After hesitating for half an hour and twisting for half an hour, Liu Xue finally clenched her teeth and rushed out. The landlord, who was sitting on the counter, called her, and laughed: "Liu Xue, are you preparing to go out?"
"No, I... I'm here to see you. " Liu Xue cleared her throat and said with some difficulty.
"Looking for me?" The landlord was worried that she would ask him for the gold chain one day. The gold chain was worth at least 10,000 yuan, which was enough for them to pay the rent for two years.
Liu Xue looked at him, without holding any hope, she chuckled and said: "Uncle, can you return that golden chain to me? "Yue Yue Yue wants it from me."
Sure enough, they were here for the chain. The landlord's face sank and said: "Do you have money to pay the rent? "It's already been four months, and I'll pay you back twice as much as I paid you."
"Ah?" You want half the late payment? " Liu Xue stared at him in shock. Wasn't this guy too evil? Besides, the contract didn't say you had to hand it over. However, the contract did state that it was not allowed to pay rent in arrears. Sigh, heh, heh …
"No money? "Then let's not talk about it." The landlord did not give him any leeway to negotiate. Liu Xue had no choice but to leave dejectedly.
After work, Lin Yue followed the crowd and walked out of the elevator. As she walked out of the lobby of the building, her gaze accidentally landed on a silver BMW sedan, and … In the back seat, there was a pair of mesmerizing, deep blue eyes.
She suddenly turned around, gritted her teeth, and charged towards the back door. She didn't even pay attention to the person she bumped into. As long as she could avoid that man, she wouldn't care even if she bumped into him!
Mo Lai Yi Fan's calm eyes turned cold, a trace of displeasure appearing on his face that was handsome enough to make a woman go crazy. This woman had already escaped for two years, yet she still dared to run!
"Young master, do you want to go after him?" The driver in the front seat turned around and respectfully asked as he saw the figure disappearing into the lobby.
Mo Yi Fan indifferently moved the corner of his mouth, and said with a slight smile, "No need." She wanted to play hide and seek with him? Then he would play with her. In any case, she wouldn't be able to escape anymore.
The car slowly turned onto the national highway and instantly disappeared into the flow of traffic.
After escaping from the back door, Lin Yue ran for her life. When she looked back and realized that no one was chasing after her, her tensed mind finally relaxed. She stopped and laid on the green belt, breathing heavily.
A hateful man! It was just a chain. Was there really a need to chase after her company? If she let the company find out, they would definitely treat her like a thief! How petty!
Liu Xue energetically slapped the envelope in her hand onto the landlord's counter, and looked down at the landlord sitting in the lazy chair. The landlord, who was still in the middle of his canteen, suddenly opened his eyes and glared at her. "Stupid girl, are you trying to scare me to death?"
"I'm here to give you the rent. Hurry up and return the necklace to me." Liu Xue hooked her fingers at Duan Ling Tian as she spoke in a complacent manner.
The landlord cast a sidelong glance at the envelope, weighed it in his hand, and asked unhappily, "How much is it?"
I owe you two thousand dollars for the rent and a thousand for the late payment. That's exactly three thousand!" Liu Xue angrily gnashed her teeth. When the money was mentioned, she would gnash her teeth in anger. What a waste of a thousand yuan! It was enough for a few months.
The landlord smirked and threw the envelope into her arms, saying, "Yesterday it was three thousand, today it is six thousand."
"You!" Liu Xue shouted at him in anger: "Are you trying to rob me? Why should I give you six thousand?! " She had to put down her pride with great difficulty to borrow three thousand back in the day, but this bastard actually wanted six thousand?!
"Who asked you to owe me money, and now you need it from me?" The landlord didn't feel like he was being excessive at all, but he still had a wicked look on his face. The necklace was worth at least ten thousand yuan. No matter what, he would need ten thousand yuan to get it back, right?
"It's not like you don't know that we're just students. Where did all that money come from for you?" She was so poor that she ate instant noodles every day. Six thousand yuan? That was simply an astronomical figure!
"So what if I'm a student? Just because you're a student, you can casually renege on your debt and owe others money? " The landlord sized her up and sneered, "If I don't have six thousand today, then tomorrow will be twelve thousand. If it is the day after tomorrow …" "Hur hur, and so on."
Liu Xue stared at him in fear. Twelve thousand? "Oh my god!" You are a bandit! " She was so angry that she wanted to go up and kick him, but how could she beat him!
She had never been so stinking in her life. Even when she was chased out of her house by her uncle and aunt, she wasn't as angry. How could she meet such a dead person who was even more brutal than bandits!
"Actually, this necklace isn't that pretty. Why are you in such a hurry to redeem it?" The landlord took the platinum necklace out of his pocket and dangled it in front of his eyes, eyeing it suspiciously.
Seeing the necklace, Liu Xue's eyes lit up, and she reached out her hand to grab it. The landlord retracted his palm, avoiding her hand, and put the necklace back into his pocket. "Don't take this necklace back. I'll let you stay here for another year. Just treat it as rent."
"But Yue Yue has been looking for this necklace. Uncle, I beg of you, please give it back to me." Liu Xue pleaded in a low voice. Lin Yue knew that she had used the necklace to pay the rent, so she scolded her until she died!
"No problem, just have a good talk with Yue Yue. Go back, don't disturb me." The landlord yawned loudly and went back to his couch.
Liu Xue looked at his face that was filled with anger, and her entire body trembled. She picked up the account book on the table and fiercely threw it at his face. After she was done, she ran away. When she heard the landlord let out a wail, she finally felt a bit relieved.
"Stupid girl!" Are you tired of living!? " The landlord covered his painful face and shouted at the direction of the stairs in exasperation. Unfortunately, Liu Xue's figure was long gone.
Lin Yue, who had been cursing and swearing all the way back to her residence, didn't give up and continued to search everywhere. She called out to her mother in a low voice, "Gold chain, gold chain, come out quickly. Let Mommy see what you look like …" "Good boy …"
On all fours, she crawled across the floor in the form of a puppy, searching. A pair of calves suddenly appeared in front of her, blocking her way. Lin Yue didn't even raise her head as she yelled, "Liu Xue, don't you see that I'm looking for my family's treasure?"
"There's no need to search, you won't be able to find it even if you get rid of your eyes." Liu Xue looked at her and helplessly spoke.
"That pockmarked face is already blocking the entrance of the company today. I have no choice but to find it. I died from injustice, wuu …" Lin Yue's small face collapsed as she wailed in pain.
That serious? Liu Xue rolled her eyes and said honestly: "I already took the necklace to pay the rent and gave it to the landlord."
Lin Yue was stunned. She stared at him with her eyes wide open. "What did you say?"
"That day, the landlord came to chase after the rent. I found the necklace inside the coat you threw down and gave it to him." Liu Xue recalled that day's situation. Ai, if she had known it would be like this, even if she was kicked out by the landlord, she wouldn't have dared to use the necklace to compensate for it!
"Are there really necklaces on the clothes?" Lin Yue was still staring at her in disbelief. Although she had been searching the entire time, she had only been trying to comfort her. She hadn't thought that the necklace would actually be on her!
Liu Xue nodded, and carefully said, "Yesterday I went to get the necklace from the landlord, he asked me to make up the rent, and today when I have enough rent, he wants me to pay six thousand, if not …" Tomorrow is twelve thousand. "
"Is that damn pig crazy about money!?" Lin Yue angrily roared, she grabbed onto Liu Xue's neck and bellowed: "You little bastard, you've caused my death! "Howl …!"
Liu Xue's face turned red from her pinching, she struggled to pull the Demon Claw off her neck, her small face dropped as she screamed, "Sorry … I didn't know it would be like this, it's useless even if you strangled me …"
"I'll strangle you to death, and my heart is at ease!" Lin Yue screamed as she fell to the ground. She had an expression on her face that seemed like she wanted to cry but had no tears to shed.
"We'd better find a way to gather six thousand dollars." Liu Xue felt that doing proper business was more important, so as to avoid getting the price to 12,000 tomorrow, it would be troublesome.
Lin Yue jumped up from the ground and shouted: "I'm used to his stinking habits, why should I give him six thousand?!" As she spoke, her feet moved like the wind, rushing out of the door and towards the first floor.
The outcome could not be known. The landlord was not such a kind person. No matter how hard or soft she tried, she was unwilling to give him back. In the end, he used his bright eyes to size up Lin Yue, and said with a smile: "If you can accompany me for one night, I will consider returning the necklace to you, moreover … "Not a penny."
"Go to hell!" Lin Yue picked up the account book on the counter and used all her strength, which was ten times stronger than Liu Xue's, to throw it onto his fat face. With a cold snort, she turned around and walked towards the stairs.
After the same seat was smashed, the landlord's red face swelled up even more. He angrily stared at Lin Yue's back and cursed, "Damned girl, can't you just smash it somewhere else?"
"You deserve to be crushed to death!" Lin Yue's resentful voice sounded from the second floor, only leaving behind the sound of weak footsteps.
Inside the villa on the Mountainside Whispering Wood, the warm sunlight penetrated the windows and fell upon the luxuriously decorated rooms. It also fell upon the man lazily leaning against the leather sofa, closing his eyes and resting.
A tall man in a suit stood outside the living room and reported loudly with his head lowered, "Young Master, we've already investigated all the gold shops and pawnshops, but didn't find any necklaces."
Mo Lai Yi Fan slightly opened his eyes and looked at him. He faintly said a few words, "Continue looking."
"Yes." The man nodded and was about to leave. After a moment of hesitation, he spoke again, "Young Master, the young lady has been living a tight life. It doesn't seem like she has just pawned a necklace."
"Have you checked her residence?" Mo Yi Fan didn't even move his body. His slightly narrowed eyes emitted a sharp light that made people feel intimidated.
He really wanted to believe his little wife, but the necklace was too important for him to lose, so he had no choice but to order someone to search for the necklace by her side!
"Yes, I checked and didn't find anything." "Yes, Young Master," the man said respectfully. They had already ordered the landlord to open the door and used his sensor to check the contents of the necklace.
"It's impossible that there aren't any …" The necklace was clearly in his pocket. It couldn't have disappeared without a trace, could it?
But where was the necklace? He really wanted to know!
The necklace didn't have much to do with him. Perhaps it was due to the words' I've already lost a lot of my memory 'from that mysterious person's mouth.
Could it have something to do with her little wife's inexplicable loss of memory?
