Urban Life: I Became Jiang Nansun's Landlord

"Impossible. Starting a business is risky, and investing requires caution. How could there be a business that doesn't lose money?" Yang Tao said with a face full of disbelief.

Lin Yi glanced at Yang Tao, got up to find something, and soon returned with a set of shop permits.

Lin Yi said, "This is a renovated shop, 1,000 square meters, which should be big enough for you. I'll use it as a wedding dress shop."

The biggest risk in investing is the rent for the venue. But think about it, we own the venue, so even if we lose money, we won't lose much.

So, feel free to do whatever you want. As long as you're happy, your man is perfectly fine.

As Lin Yi spoke, he stuffed the shop's permit into Yang Tao's hand.

Yang Tao stared blankly at the red booklet in her hand.

Hearing Lin Yi's heartwarming words again, I was deeply moved.

Yang Tao hugged Lin Yi tightly and said softly, "Darling, thank you."

"There's no need for formalities between us."

Lin Yi hugged Yang Tao and pecked her cheek.

“The venue is our own, we’ll only spend a little extra money, so you don’t need to worry,” Lin Yi said with a smile.

"Uh-huh."

Yang Tao, who was initially a little worried, suddenly gained confidence.

The biggest problem has been solved. Even if the business loses money, it's not a big deal. This loss is completely within our tolerance range.

So the starfruit felt very comfortable.

Overwhelmed with excitement, Yang Tao couldn't sleep and pulled Lin Yi aside to talk for a long time, sharing many of her thoughts.

Lin Yi listened attentively and then gave her his advice.

Why are traditional industries so difficult to run? Because rent is just too expensive. Now that the biggest rent problem has been solved, Yang Tao feels really confident.

Lin Yi glanced at the time and said with a smile, "Peach, it's almost time. Aren't you going to sleep?"

"I'm not sleepy yet," Yang Tao said.

"How about we have another short meeting to discuss other topics?" Lin Yi said with a smile.

"Mmm." Yang Tao nodded, her face flushed.

Yang Tao could completely sense Lin Yi's love for her.

Therefore, starfruit is not pretentious.

Before I knew it, it was the next day.

Lin Yi was holding Yang Tao, who was fast asleep.

Yang Tao's mother, Xue Sumei, and her sister, Su Qing, had already eaten breakfast.

Sitting on the sofa, Xue Sumei suddenly said, "I wonder if they've eaten the peaches yet."

“Auntie, I think your worries are a bit unnecessary,” Su Qing said. “Taozi is not a child anymore, and besides, Lin Yi is there. They will take good care of themselves.”

"Too."

Xue Sumei said with a smile, "In the past, I was always urging Taozi to find a boyfriend. Now that she suddenly has a boyfriend, I'm a little unaccustomed to it."

Su Qing burst out laughing.

Xue Sumei took Su Qing's hand and asked, "Qing'er, what are your plans for the future?"

"Me? I'll stay with my aunt from now on," Su Qing said with a smile.

Xue Sumei said, "Don't talk nonsense. You're only in your thirties. You should start looking for someone."

“I know, there’s no rush,” Su Qing said.

"I really didn't expect that Duan Xifeng, who looks so honest, could do such a thing," Xue Sumei said sadly.

“Auntie, it’s all in the past now. Getting angry won’t change anything. We have to look forward,” Su Qing said.

“Your aunt was going to comfort you, but you ended up comforting her instead. You’re better than your aunt,” Xue Sumei said.

"No, because I know that complaining won't solve anything," Su Qing said bitterly.

At noon, Xue Sumei took Su Qing to Yang Tao's house across the street.

Because it was very close, it only took seven or eight minutes to get there.

When Xue Sumei opened the door, she found that there was no movement inside.

Xue Sumei said, "Qing'er, I'll go cook first. Tell Taozi and Lin Yi to come home for lunch."

"Ok."

And so, Xue Sumei got busy.

Su Qing sent a message to Taozi, asking them to come back and eat.

Half an hour later, Xue Sumei finished cooking and asked, "Qing'er, how is it?"

"I don't know, I sent a message, but Taozi didn't reply," Su Qing said.

"Then make a phone call."

"it is good."

Su Qing made a phone call and realized that the phone was ringing from inside her home.

"Taozi's phone is at home? Auntie, Taozi isn't at home, is she?" Su Qing said in surprise.

“Impossible, right? I’ve been cooking for so long, why hasn’t she come out?” Xue Sumei said.

As soon as Xue Sumei finished speaking, Yang Tao answered the phone.

"Sister, is something wrong?" Yang Tao asked groggily.

"Peach, your aunt and I are at your house. Your aunt has cooked dinner. Remember to come and eat with Lin Yi," Su Qing said.

"it is good."

Su Qing pointed to the room and said with a smile, "Auntie, it seems that Taozi really hasn't gotten up."

Xue Sumei was about to go in with a rolling pin when Su Qing stopped her.

"No, Auntie, what if Lin Yi is in there too?" Su Qing said.

“That’s right, then let’s wait for them to come out,” Xue Sumei said.

Xue Sumei's expression was rather unpleasant. She said, "Qing'er, what kind of thing is Taozi doing?"

Sleeping until noon and skipping work? What kind of behavior is that?

Su Qing suppressed a laugh and said, "Auntie, young people will be like that."

“Young people shouldn’t do this either; they should wait until the peaches ripen,” Xue Sumei said.

Xue Sumei thought for a moment and said, "Never mind, I'll make another black chicken and wolfberry soup, and let Xiaoyi drink more of it later."

Su Qing blushed slightly upon hearing this.

……

Yang Tao had just hung up the phone when she sat up abruptly.

Wait, what did Sister Qing say on the phone?

Did her mother and sister come to the house?

And her mother had already prepared the meal?

So, they're outside right now?

Yang Tao looked at the sleeping Lin Yi and blushed as she thought about how late she had gone to bed last night.

It's terrible. It's terrible.

If her mother saw this, she wouldn't know what she would think of her sleeping with Lin Yi until now.

"Lin Yi, Lin Yi," Yang Tao called softly.

"Hmm? Peach, what are you doing? It's getting dark, go back to sleep," Lin Yi muttered.

"Don't lie to me." Lin Yi smiled and put his arm around Yang Tao.

Yang Tao placed her phone in front of Lin Yi and said, "Really, I'm not lying to you, it's already one o'clock."

It's dark now because the curtains aren't drawn.

"..."

After hearing this, Lin Yi also became much more sober.

"What's going on? Did we stay up this late?" Lin Yi asked.

"What do you think? It's all your fault. I've already said that we shouldn't discuss such trivial matters too much."

"You just wouldn't let it go, and look what happened, I ended up sleeping until now." Yang Tao said, looking at Lin Yi.

Lin Yi said with a smile, "I didn't want to either, but I'm doing this for better career development."

"And I don't believe you for a second." Yang Tao didn't believe her at all.

"What's there to be afraid of getting up a little? It's fine, no big deal," Lin Yi said with a smile.

“This is a big problem.” Yang Tao pointed outside and said softly, “My mom and my sister have already prepared dinner and want us to go out to eat.”

"What? No way." Lin Yi was also dumbfounded when he heard this.

Lin Yi asked with a smile, "So what do we do now? We need to come up with an excuse, otherwise Auntie will think we did something last night."

“I think my mom is right,” Yang Tao said.

Lin Yi smiled and said, "Yes, that's true, and Auntie's guess is correct, but... we can't admit it."

"Hmm, what excuse should we make?" Yang Tao nodded.

Lin Yi thought for a moment and said, "Taozi, if Auntie asks, just say that you don't want to work here anymore. We were discussing your job last night."
