My Beautiful CEO.
Chapter 046 Unexplained Irritability
As Li Cheng approached the door, he suddenly noticed a luxurious white BMW parked below the building.
Hey, whose car is this?
In Li Cheng's memory, the people living in this community were mostly working-class people like himself, and in more than a year, no luxury cars had ever appeared.
Li Cheng didn't bother to think about it and simply took out his key to open the door, only to find that the door was ajar.
Since the incident at the Friendship Hotel, Qian Xiaoqian has been living at her parents' home.
The door is ajar. Could it be that the landlord has come over?
Li Cheng realized that he hadn't paid rent for almost three months, so it was only right for the landlord to come and collect the money. But now, where would Li Cheng find the money to pay the rent?
There was no other way but to bite the bullet and face the landlord, Mr. Li.
Pushing open the door, Li Cheng saw Grandpa Li sitting on the sofa in the living room. Just as Li Cheng was about to go up and greet him, he saw a woman with a veil sitting next to Grandpa Li.
Li Cheng guessed that the BMW downstairs should belong to her, because there were car keys on the table in front of her.
This is quite puzzling. When did honest and simple old man Li bring a woman to his rented room?
Li Cheng couldn't help but take another look at the woman in front of him.
She was around twenty-one or twenty-two years old. Her luxurious clothes made her look very elegant. Her hair was slightly curly, her skin was delicate, and her stunning figure was particularly impressive to men!
Unfortunately, she was wearing a veil, so her face could not be seen.
As soon as Grandpa Li saw Li Cheng, he immediately beamed and said to Li Cheng, "Li Cheng, I was just looking for you. I didn't expect you to come back."
"Uncle, I remember telling you last time that the rent would have to wait another two weeks. I'm a bit short on cash lately, aren't I? I'll give you my salary when the company pays it in two weeks," Li Cheng said to Uncle Li with a bitter face.
"It's not about the rent!" Grandpa Li quickly stood up and said to Li Cheng, "I wanted to tell you that this house has been bought by this young lady!"
"What? The house was sold?" Li Cheng was taken aback, his eyes widening immediately. He glanced at the masked woman instinctively, muttering, "That's strange. Why would anyone buy a house in a place like this? Look at how dilapidated it is, is it even fit for human habitation?"
"Aren't you human?" the woman suddenly asked, her voice slightly hoarse. Li Cheng recognized the voice, but couldn't quite place it.
Grandpa Li stood there awkwardly, then quickly stepped in to smooth things over: "Li Cheng, forget about the three months' rent, but you need to find a way to move out tonight, since the house has already been sold to this young lady..."
"Sir, that's not right of you! I'm your tenant, and I've been living here for over a year now, haven't I? If you want to sell the house, you should at least let me know in advance! It's raining and so late, where am I supposed to find a place to stay?"
"Aren't there hotels outside? I'll pay for the hotel tonight!" Grandpa Li said embarrassedly.
"Forget it, it's pointless to talk to you!" Li Cheng said irritably to Grandpa Li, then turned to the woman with a big smile and said, "Miss, I'm sorry, I didn't know the house sold so quickly! Could you give me a couple of days' grace so I can find somewhere to stay first? Or, I can continue renting from you..."
“I didn’t buy this house to rent out; I’m going to live in it myself,” the woman immediately interrupted Li Cheng.
"No way?" Li Cheng's eyes widened even more as he stared at the woman in disbelief. "Is the car downstairs yours? You drive a luxury car worth millions, yet you live in such a dilapidated building. Who would believe that?"
The woman ignored Li Cheng's words, her tone changing to one of cold indifference as she said, "Just as Uncle Li said, you'll move out tonight. You have two hours..."
Li Cheng grew anxious and immediately interrupted the woman, his anger rising within him: "How can you do things like this? You come and I have to move out without even a word beforehand. Aren't you deliberately making things difficult for me?"
The woman didn't look at Li Cheng; her eyes were coldly fixed elsewhere, completely ignoring his words.
Li Cheng was at his wit's end. He coughed lightly, feeling incredibly frustrated. But then again, if Li Cheng had money on him right now, would he have bothered with this?
Today at Zhongshan Park, Li Cheng gave Qian Xiaoqian all the few hundred yuan he had on him.
Right now, it's fair to say that even the money for tomorrow's breakfast is a problem.
Besides, I've been renting this old building for over a year now. Although I spend most of my time at Zhang Qing's house, I occasionally come here with Qian Xiaoqian for a romantic getaway.
Over the past year, Li Cheng has grown accustomed to living in the ancient building, and he feels a little reluctant to suddenly move out.
Humans have feelings, whether towards people or things. Over the past year, whenever Li Cheng felt lonely and isolated, it was this old building that gave him a warm feeling of home, making him feel less afraid in a foreign city.
But now, even this warm feeling is about to disappear, and Li Cheng is naturally extremely distressed.
Seeing that Li Cheng and the masked woman were still standing there in the living room, Grandpa Li waved his hands and said, "You two can figure it out yourselves. Anyway, I'm not the owner of this house anymore. It's getting late, and I have to go back and help my granddaughter with her homework!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Grandpa Li quickly slipped away.
Inside the house, only Li Cheng and the masked woman remained.
The pattering rain outside made Li Cheng feel terrible.
Li Cheng decided in his heart that since the other party was a noble woman and he himself was just a worthless life, he might as well act shamelessly. Did she, a woman, think she would drive him away?
Thinking of this, Li Cheng coughed softly and said to her, "Miss, may I ask your name?"
"We're moving out anyway, why are you still trying to get close to me?" The woman's attitude was very cold.
"This isn't about trying to get close to you, and I don't want to build any connections. I just want to know what kind of woman would leave me homeless on this rainy night!"
The woman completely ignored the hatred in Li Cheng's words, frowned, glanced at the time, and said:
"You'd better think of something quickly. There's only one hour and thirty-five minutes left. If you haven't moved out by then, I'll call the police to ask you to leave immediately."
Li Cheng was about to explode with anger at the woman's words. He glared at her, ready to argue his point, when his cell phone rang in his pocket.
It was Qian Xiaoqian calling.
Li Cheng's face was extremely pale, and he was inexplicably irritable. The way he answered the phone was very frightening.
"I have no money left, it's no use you coming to me!"
Qian Xiaoqian paused for a moment on the other end of the phone, then whispered, "Li Cheng, can you come with me tomorrow? I want to go to the hospital..."
