Chapter 144: 【144】Does this guy want to be my brother-in-law?_1

“Don’t talk nonsense, I’m his older sister, my name is Li Tingting.”

Although the woman was correcting Tang Feng, the smile on her face could not be concealed.

Which woman wouldn’t want to be called younger?

She was five or six years older than her brother, and now being mistaken for the “younger sister,” her heart blossomed with joy.

Li Wenxuan rolled his eyes instantly, cursing the kid silently for his shamelessness.

He clearly heard him call her “sister” just now, yet he deliberately asked that way, obviously trying to curry favor with his sister.

Hmm? Could it be that this kid wants to be my brother-in-law?

Hmph, no way!

“Oh right, you know my brother?” Li Tingting asked, coming back to her senses after the excitement.

“Wenxuan and I were high school classmates,” Tang Feng admitted earnestly.

“Wow, high school classmates? Isn’t that such a coincidence?” Li Tingting said, slapping her brother’s arm, “Look at him, so young and already a landlord, now look at you.”

Li Wenxuan was unimpressed by his sister’s words, “Yeah, because he’s got a good sister.”

“What do you mean? Are you saying your sister is incompetent?” Li Tingting instantly flared up, grabbing his ear.

“Ow ow, let go…” Li Wenxuan hurriedly begged for mercy.

After some roughhousing between the two, they followed Tang Feng to look at the apartments.

All the first-floor apartments were rented out, but there were available ones on the second, third, and fourth floors.

But Tang Feng wasn’t too keen to show them the third floor.

Because Qin Yanan lived on the third floor, he was afraid Li Wenxuan might have ulterior motives for Mrs. Nan.

After all, the guy had a history of gold-digging, so he had to be cautious.

While Li Tingting was busy looking at the apartments, Tang pulled Li Wenxuan aside and whispered, “What’s going on? Weren’t you living off a rich woman? You had a big villa and now you’re living in this kind of shabby place?”

Li Wenxuan glared at him, not wanting to deal with him.

“If you don’t answer, I might just ask your sister,” Tang Feng threatened.

“You…” Li Wenxuan’s face changed drastically, he dared not let his family know he’d freeloaded, so he grudgingly answered, “I… I don’t want to live that kind of life anymore.”

“Got dumped, didn’t you?” Tang Feng was ruthless in exposing him.

“You… you’re talking nonsense, I left on my own,” Li Wenxuan still tried desperately to save face.

“Alright, what’s with the secrecy between us? I could tell last time that you were a bit weak in the kidneys, getting dumped was just a matter of time.”

“I…”

Li Wenxuan felt like cursing.

But Tang Feng didn’t give him the chance, turning back to Li Tingting, “Sis, how do you like the place? Are you satisfied?”

“Very satisfied, I’ve seen the other apartments around here, and yours is the best,” Li Tingting nodded happily.

“Of course. Look at that air conditioner, security windows, and the mattress, all newly replaced. I assure you, within a five-kilometer radius, you won’t find another place this cheap and this good,” Tang Feng didn’t mind boasting a bit for Qin Yanan.

Actually, it wasn’t really boasting. Qin Yanan did pay a lot of attention to the environment of the house, including the hallways, which were cleaned daily by someone.

In this entire urban village, one couldn’t find a second house as clean as this one.

The more Li Tingting looked, the more satisfied she became, and she turned back to her brother, “I think this place is great, why don’t we rent here?”

Li Wenxuan really didn’t want to be neighbors with Tang Feng, “If you like it, you rent it, I don’t like it anyway.”

As soon as she heard this, Li Tingting stomped over in two steps and grabbed his ear again, “You’re really asking for it, aren’t you? You’re depending on your sister to support you now, do you have any room to be picky? I say we’re renting this place, so we’re renting this place. If you don’t want to stay, go live under a bridge.”

Li Wenxuan felt humiliated.

But he was living at someone else’s mercy now and had no say in the matter, so he agreed unwillingly.

Having dealt with her brother, Li Tingting turned back to Tang Feng, taking his hand, “Tang, we’ll rent the second-floor one, how do we handle the rent?”

Tang Feng felt a weird sensation as she grabbed his hand.

This woman wouldn’t be trying to find a brother-in-law for Li Wenxuan, would she?

“Ahem, the room on the second floor is 800 a month, utilities not included. Water is three yuan a ton, and electricity is 0.5 yuan per kilowatt-hour…”

“800 a month? That seems a bit more expensive than others,” Li Tingting hesitated upon hearing the price.

“Sis, the apartment might be a bit more expensive, but the environment is good. You don’t want to see your brother living in a dump every day, right?” Tang Feng thought to himself with amusement.

He’s been to other self-built apartments.

Indeed, the rent was cheaper by a hundred or eighty yuan than Qin Yanan’s, but you couldn’t even find a place to step inside, with the hallways reeking.

The difference of a hundred yuan was like heaven and earth.

“I know the environment here is good, but this price…” Li Tingting looked at him pleadingly, “Look, you and Wenxuan have been old classmates, you should help each other out, right? Can it be any cheaper?”

As she spoke, she even rubbed up against him a couple of times.

Tang Feng couldn’t stand it anymore and hurriedly withdrew his hand, “Sis, I’m just a runner, I can’t make these decisions.”

Give them a break for being old classmates?

If he really cared about being old classmates, he’d ask them for eight thousand a month.

“Then you go call your sister and tell her about you and Wenxuan’s relationship; I think she would agree,” Li Tingting was still persistent.

Li Wenxuan turned his head away, pretending not to hear, probably embarrassed by his sister.

Tang Feng had no choice but to step into the hallway and call Qin Yanan, explaining the situation.

Qin Yanan’s reply was very straightforward, “Decide for yourself. Since he’s your classmate, it’s fine even if he lives for free.”

Tang Feng was moved after hearing this.

What a great and virtuous wife, knowing to leave some face for a man in front of others.

After hanging up the phone, he returned to the room, “I discussed it with Mrs. Nan, and we can reduce the rent by fifty yuan a month.”

Although Qin Yanan mentioned it could be free, he wouldn’t tolerate causing significant losses for Mrs. Nan because of Li Wenxuan, his nemesis.

He was quite clear on who was close and who was not.
