Metropolis: It’s a showdown, I am the richest man in the world

"I'll give you a day's grace, but who's going to give me a day's grace?"

The landlord's voice was sharp and piercing, like a needle piercing Liu Xiaoshuang's heart.

Her face became even paler, and her lips were tightly pursed, as if she was trying not to let tears fall.

Lin Yuan looked at Liu Xiaoshuang's aggrieved look, and his sense of justice suddenly burst out.

He stepped forward, stood in front of Liu Xiaoshuang, and looked at the landlord firmly.

"Madam Landlord, I want to know if Liu Xiaoshuang's contract has expired? Are you going to drive her away? If it hasn't expired, it's illegal."

The landlord looked at Lin Yuan, with a flash of surprise in her eyes.

She didn't seem to expect that this young man would stand up so firmly to speak for Liu Xiaoshuang.

But she didn't soften her attitude, but curled her lips and said disdainfully.

"Who do you think you are? I'll just return the remaining money to her, and I'm going to rent this house to someone else, so leave quickly!"

Seeing the landlord so determined, Lin Yuan's face also sank.

His eyes were like torches, as if he could see through people's hearts.

He took a deep breath, his tone was cold and decisive, "Since you insist so much, then we will follow the legal procedures, but please remember, according to the lease contract, if you breach the contract and terminate the contract early, you must pay double the compensation amount. This is your responsibility, you can't escape it."

The landlord's wife was shocked by Lin Yuan's momentum and was speechless for a moment.

She stared at Lin Yuan, as if trying to find some retreat in his eyes, but she only saw firmness and calmness.

Liu Xiaoshuang also looked at Lin Yuan in surprise. She didn't expect him to stand up for her so toughly.

The touch and gratitude in her heart made her eyes wet again.

Although the landlord's wife was shocked by Lin Yuan's momentum, she still did not give up her tough attitude.

She waved her hand vigorously, as if to dispel the dissatisfaction in her heart, and then laughed coldly.

"Me? It's just double compensation. It's my bad luck to meet you two poor guys. I'm actually short of that little rent."

As she said, she took out a crumpled bill from her pocket and threw it hard on the ground.

The banknote bounced a few times on the floor, and finally lay there quietly, as if mocking her stinginess and ruthlessness.

Liu Xiaoshuang looked at the banknote, and a complex emotion surged in her heart.

She felt angry and wronged, but at the same time she felt a little powerless.

She knew that the landlord's wife would not change her mind because of their protest, and they were destined to lose this house.

But Liu Xiaoshuang was very tough and said bluntly.

"I don't want this rent. Landlords like you will not be welcomed in the future."

The landlord's wife was stunned, obviously not expecting Liu Xiaoshuang to respond like this.

Her face became ugly, and her lips moved a few times, but she couldn't make a sound.

A trace of anger and unwillingness flashed in her eyes, and then she said.

"Cut, you really take yourself seriously! I don't think you can find a house."

Liu Xiaoshuang did not retreat because of the landlord's words. She straightened her back and looked at the landlord's wife with a firm look.

There was no fear on her face, only determination and courage.

"Whether I can find a house or not, I will never deal with a landlord like you again!"

Lin Yuan looked at Liu Xiaoshuang with some surprise.

Lin Yuan walked to Liu Xiaoshuang's side, his eyes looked directly at the landlady, and a provocative smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Who said we can't find a house? Today I'll show you that we can not only find a house, but also find a better house than yours!"

"How is it possible? Even if you can find a house immediately, you can't move in so quickly after a set of procedures are completed."

"Hmph, stop pretending, I'm the landlord of the residential building in Futai Jiayuan."

Hearing Lin Yuan's words, a look of uncertainty flashed across the face of the landlady.

She stared at Lin Yuan with wide eyes, as if she couldn't believe it, as if she wanted to find some traces of lying on his face.

However, Lin Yuan's expression was calm and confident, and his eyes revealed an unquestionable firmness.

The landlady's throat seemed to be blocked by a ball of cotton, making it difficult for her to speak.

She subconsciously clenched the key in her hand, and her knuckles turned white due to the force.

Her heartbeat quickened, and she began to think of countermeasures quickly in her mind.

The air around her seemed to freeze, so quiet that only the breathing of several people could be heard.

Liu Xiaoshuang also looked at Lin Yuan in surprise. She didn't expect him to have such an identity.

In her eyes, Lin Yuan's image instantly became taller, like a solid mountain, which made her feel extremely relieved.

"How is it possible? You are only about 20 years old. How can you own a high-end residential building? I think one is more or less."

The landlord said calmly.

"Why is it impossible?" Lin Yuan asked back, his tone full of confidence.

He took out his mobile phone from his pocket, unlocked the screen, and showed it to the landlord's wife.

"This is the information and group I just connected with the previous landlord today."

The landlord's wife widened her eyes and leaned close to the mobile phone screen to check it carefully.

Her face began to look ugly, her lips trembled, and she seemed to want to say something, but couldn't say it.

She never thought that this seemingly ordinary young man in front of her actually owned a high-end residential building.

Lin Yuan looked at the landlord's wife's reaction and sneered.

He knew that his words had worked.

He ignored the landlady and turned to Liu Xiaoshuang.

"Sister Xiaoshuang, let's go and live in my residential building."

Lin Yuan pulled the suitcase and walked firmly towards the door.

Liu Xiaoshuang followed closely behind, her eyes full of admiration and trust for Lin Yuan.

The landlady stood there, watching the two people leave, feeling unwilling and angry intertwined in her heart, but unable to break out.

When they walked out of the door of the apartment building, the sun shone warmly on the two of them.

Liu Xiaoshuang looked up at the sky, took a deep breath of fresh air, and felt much more relaxed.

"Boss Lin, I'm afraid I can't pay the rent... Can you let me stay for a few days, and then I will move out after I find another house."

"Did I say I need to pay?"

Hearing Lin Yuan's words, Liu Xiaoshuang waved her hands hurriedly, with an anxious look on her face.

"Boss Lin, how can this work? How can I live in your house for nothing? You have already helped me so much, how can I cause you more trouble?"

Lin Yuan couldn't help but smile when he saw Liu Xiaoshuang's anxious look.

He gently patted Liu Xiaoshuang's shoulder and comforted her.

"Sister Xiaoshuang, that is the staff dormitory arranged by me, so you can live there with peace of mind."

With that said, Lin Yuan took out a bunch of keys from his pocket and handed them to Liu Xiaoshuang.

"This is the key to Residential Building 205. If you take it, it will be the staff dormitory from now on."
