After I kicked out my boss, I became a landlady

After a long time, Li Xuye's anger gradually receded like a tide. He slowly sat up from the bed, his brows still tightly furrowed, and Lin Sen's actions kept circling in his mind.

"Hmph, why does he treat me like this? Am I not special enough to attract his attention?" Li Xuye muttered to himself, the confusion in his eyes becoming more and more intense. His heart felt like it was scratched by a cat, full of confusion.

In the next room, Xiao Linsen stood with his back against the door, quietly like a statue, his eyes as complex as the deep night sky.

The moment he saw Li Xuye, his heart was like a lake with a huge rock thrown into it, with turbulent waves.

Why is he here?

This question lingered in Xiao Linsen's mind.

He has always been extremely envious of Li Xuye's ability to feel at ease and at ease in the class.

No matter where Li Xuye is, he is as dazzling as the sun, with his own halo. He is surrounded by people and enjoys endless love.

Looking at myself, I am like a little mushroom growing in a dark and damp corner, ignored by everyone. I am thin and lonely, an alien in everyone's eyes, and being disliked and bullied is commonplace.

This huge contrast made Xiao Linsen subconsciously choose to escape whenever he faced Li Xuye, as if Li Xuye's dazzling light was a sharp thorn that would deeply hurt his already broken heart.

The days when he was bullied at school replayed in his mind like a nightmare. The laughter, beatings and scoldings from those people still echoed in his ears, as if constantly reminding him that he was the worst and most unacceptable person in the world.

But Li Xuye seemed to be living in another beautiful world, enjoying all the good things with ease, without any haze of worries and no traces of pain.

Xiao Linsen took a deep breath, trying to calm his confused thoughts, but Li Xuye's confident look kept lingering in his mind.

"I can't get into trouble again, especially with someone as eye-catching as him." Xiao Linsen silently warned himself in his heart.

The next morning, the sun shone in every corner of the building as usual, and Wen Nuan was preparing to deliver breakfast to the tenants as usual.

When she knocked on Li Xuye's door, a lazy and slightly impatient "Come in" came from inside.

Wen Nuan gently pushed open the door, and what came into view was a messy room. Li Xuye was sitting listlessly on the sofa, his hair was disheveled like a bird's nest, and his dark circles were as heavy as panda eyes. It was not difficult to see that he had spent a sleepless night tossing and turning last night.

"Here, breakfast." Wen Nuan put the breakfast on the table and said softly.

Li Xuye just took a glance at it, without any appetite, his mind was not on it at all.

After a moment of silence, he couldn't help but ask, "That Lin Sen... is he living here now? Is he easy to get along with?"

Wen Nuan frowned slightly, thought for a while and said, "Lin Sen, he has always been very withdrawn and doesn't interact with people very much. It seems like he has a lot of things on his mind."

After listening to this, Li Xuye nodded thoughtfully. At this moment, a sudden noise came from outside, breaking the tranquility of the early morning.

The two looked at each other and walked out quickly to check. It turned out that a few guys who often bullied Lin Sen at school came.

They were shouting and cursing at the top of their lungs downstairs, asking Lin Sen to get out. They looked so arrogant as if they were the masters of the place.

Li Xuye frowned, and a trace of anger flashed in his eyes: "Why did these guys chase us here?"

When Xiao Linsen heard this familiar yet terrifying voice in the room, his face suddenly turned pale as paper. He knew that he would probably not be able to escape this time.

But to his surprise, Li Xuye did not hesitate at all and walked down the stairs with big strides, as imposing as a general going to war.

He stood in front of those people, raised his chin, and shouted arrogantly: "You rubbish, what are you doing here? You disturb the peace of this earl."

When those people saw Li Xuye, they were stunned at first, and then they laughed mockingly: "Hey, isn't this Li Xuye? Why, you want to protect that freak?"

Li Xuye sneered, his eyes revealing disdain: "He is my man, do you dare to touch him?"

The cold tone seemed to carry a blade, making those people shiver.

They were intimidated by Li Xuye's powerful aura, but were unwilling to leave in such disgrace. Their eyes were filled with resentment and unwillingness.

Just when the atmosphere was as tense as a bowstring about to break, Xiao Linsen also walked down. He looked at Li Xuye's solid back, and a complex emotion surged in his heart, including being moved and worried.

He whispered to Li Xuye, "Don't worry about me. They won't let it go."

Li Xuye turned around and glanced at him, his eyes as firm as a rock: "Humph, they can't mess around while I'm here."

When those bullies saw Xiao Linsen coming down, a fierce light flashed in their eyes and they were about to attack him, but Li Xuye stepped forward and stopped them.

The two sides were in a stalemate, and the tense atmosphere made the air around them seem to freeze.

At this time, Wen Nuan also rushed over and shouted, "If you don't leave, I will call the police!"

When those people heard the words "call the police", they felt a little uneasy and left cursing.

Li Xuye breathed a sigh of relief, turned his head and looked at Xiao Linsen, with a hint of pride on his face: "What do you think? I'm not a vegetarian."

Xiao Linsen looked at him, his lips trembling slightly, as if he had a thousand words to say, but in the end he just said softly: "Thank you."

Li Xuye's mouth curled up slightly, and the depression of being ignored by Lin Sen in his heart also dissipated a lot at this moment. "Humph, I will protect you from now on, and those guys won't be able to bully you."

He patted his chest, his tone full of confidence.

Li Xuye looked at Xiao Linsen with full anticipation, his eyes flickering with an eagerness to be recognized.

Xiao Linsen paused, turned his head slightly to look at Li Xuye, and his gaze stayed on his face for a brief moment.

He frowned slightly, a hint of hesitation flashed across his eyes, and his lips were slightly pursed, as if he was struggling with something.

However, just a moment later, he looked away and walked straight past Li Xuye, his shoulder brushing against Li Xuye's arm, bringing up a slight breeze.

He said coldly, "Mind your own business." The voice was not loud, but it was like a sharp ice pick, piercing Li Xuye straight.

Li Xuye stood there as if he was struck by lightning. The smile on his face froze instantly and his eyes were full of disbelief.

His eyes widened, his mouth slightly open, and it took him a while to react.

He was so angry that his face turned red, veins popped out on his neck, and his fists clenched unconsciously, his knuckles turning white from the force.

He roared in the direction where Xiao Linsen left: "You...you ungrateful guy! I'm doing this for you!"

His body trembled slightly and his chest heaved violently, like an enraged lion. The rage in his heart almost devoured him.

"I must be blind to help you!" He cursed in a low voice with gritted teeth, flames of anger burning in his eyes, staring at Xiao Linsen's receding back.
