Chapter 107: The Eviction Incident

Looking at the situation before him, Ji Wenyan couldn’t help but let out a helpless sigh. He knew trouble was coming again!

All he wanted was to go to Bai Mengze’s house to study hard and improve every day!

Why did one wave settle only for another to rise? It was more difficult than journeying to the West for scriptures!

Thinking that the supermarket wasn’t far, Ji Wenyan didn’t hesitate. He immediately activated the alarm system on his phone, sending a location alert to his father.

He was sure that help would arrive soon.

At the same time, Ji Wenyan turned on his phone’s video recording function.

“Oh! You’re finally back. I’m not renting this room anymore. Go wherever you want, just don’t bother me while I’m making money!”

“I’ve already paid half a year’s rent, plus a deposit. I’ve only been here a month… If you want me to leave, fine. Refund the money.”

Upon seeing Bai Mengze appear, the fat woman immediately spoke loudly, informing Bai Mengze that she could no longer rent from today onward.

Hearing this, Bai Mengze was momentarily stunned. Then, without saying much more, she simply asked the landlord to refund the money.

If this were normal times, Bai Mengze would have snapped back immediately.

But the various difficulties she had encountered while renting before made her realize that even if the landlord suddenly changed her mind, there wasn’t much she could do.

After all, this was someone else’s house. They could choose not to rent if they didn’t want to.

The reason she had rented here in the first place was that it was simple and convenient—she could just move right in.

Even though the environment was very crude and harsh, the low rent made it acceptable.

Especially after her parents’ accident, Bai Mengze had lost interest in the world and didn’t care much about anything anymore. As long as she had a place to sleep, that was enough.

“Refund? Refund what? Did you sign a contract with me? There’s not even a black-and-white agreement, and you’re asking me for money? Get out, get out! Don’t stand in my way. Once my house is demolished and rebuilt, I’m going to get a hefty compensation. I won’t have to deal with poor people like you anymore!”

However, upon hearing Bai Mengze’s request for a refund, the fat woman let out a loud laugh.

Clearly, she had no intention of giving back what was already in her pocket.

Moreover, because Bai Mengze didn’t have much rental experience, she hadn’t even written a rental agreement. Getting a refund now was simply impossible!

“If you don’t refund the money, I’m not leaving.”

“Suit yourself! But don’t leave your stuff here. I only rented to you before because I thought you were a decent person. Look at you now, hiding your face—you’re definitely no good! And wearing a school uniform? Probably stolen from somewhere!”

Hearing the landlord’s words, Bai Mengze didn’t let herself be bullied into silence.

Even though the house was someone else’s, the rent she had paid must be refunded!

Even without a contract, there was still the payment receipt. She wasn’t going to let the landlord weasel out of this!

“No rental agreement?”

Although the fat woman’s words were infuriating, they actually became a boon at this moment.

That’s right! Since the outside world was so dangerous, Bai Mengze could just come and live at his place!

Not only would he not have to worry about Bai Mengze’s safety, but he could also improve her attributes anytime, anywhere. It was a win-win solution!

And every day on the way to school, he could ride with Bai Mengze, making the trip less boring—he wouldn’t have to just chat with the system the whole time…

All in all, there were many benefits.

He was such a clever little rascal!

“Hmm, after I found out, I wanted to get a contract drawn up, but the landlord completely ignored me.”

“I see… It’s okay. Our family’s legal advisor is amazing. They can turn black into white. As long as there’s a loophole, they’ll latch onto it and never let go. I’ll ask my dad to help out.”

After Bai Mengze briefly explained what had happened, Ji Wenyan immediately offered to help her get the remaining rent back.

Of course, there was no need for her to keep renting here.

She could just go home with him!

“This is too much trouble for you, I…”

“You can’t refuse now, and this place is too dangerous. Why not just come and stay at my place!”

“Your place…”

Hearing Ji Wenyan’s words, Bai Mengze was too shocked to speak.

She never expected things to develop this way.

She only wanted to invite Ji Wenyan to study together, but now she was being kicked out of her house.

Bai Mengze felt that the situation was terrible. Especially with everything happening in front of Ji Wenyan, she had an impulse to run away as fast as she could.

She felt ashamed and wanted to escape it all.

With her mask on, Bai Mengze bit her lip hard, leaving a white mark.

[System: Alert! The trainee’s emotions are fluctuating too much. Please calm her down immediately!]

[Emotions fluctuating too much?]

[System: Yes. If you don’t stop the trainee’s inferiority complex from spreading quickly, all her attributes will drop rapidly.]

[Damn, it can do that?!!!]

While Bai Mengze was caught in a whirlwind of emotions, Ji Wenyan also received a prompt from the system, informing him that Bai Mengze was in a very bad state.

And if Bai Mengze was bad, her attributes would drop, which would make things bad for him too!

It seemed he had been too impatient.

“Bai Mengze, it’s not that I insist you stay at my place. I just think this is the best option for now. If you want to rent somewhere else, I’ll help with that too!”

“I…”

“Hmph, so your sweetheart speaks up, huh? Don’t even think about staying at my place. Follow him and get lost! And don’t expect any money—I won’t give you a single cent!”

Seeing that Bai Mengze was in a bad state, Ji Wenyan quickly tried to appease her. But before Bai Mengze could finish, the fat woman standing nearby rolled her eyes and interrupted with a sarcastic tone.

Hmph, so what if she had a boyfriend?

They were still poor people who couldn’t afford a house.

“Shut up! Who asked you to speak?”

“Oh, how dare you talk back to me? You don’t know your place! Who do you think you are? The male lead in a TV drama? Acting so arrogant!”

“You old fat pig, stop yapping here. Don’t you know you’re ugly? You keep polluting my eyes. Not putting you out of your misery is already a huge favor, and you still want to be noticed? Go back to your pigsty and roll in the mud! That’s where your kind belong. Stop seeking connection with humans.”

“You, you, you…”

Ji Wenyan had no goodwill for the fat woman who interrupted the conversation. Especially since she had treated Bai Mengze so poorly earlier, making Ji Wenyan find her even more annoying.

Now that she had walked right into his line of fire, he wasn’t going to hold back.

After being berated by Ji Wenyan, the fat woman was so angry she stomped her feet and nearly passed out from sheer fury.

After rolling her eyes a few times, she finally recovered, but the more she looked at Ji Wenyan, the angrier she got.

When had she ever been cursed out like this?

Even her dead husband, who had long since gone to see the King of Hell, hadn’t dared to talk to her like that. And now a complete stranger was belittling her like this? She really needed to teach him a lesson!

“Foreman Liu, look at these people! So ill-mannered!”

With that, the fat woman turned to the workers who had been watching the commotion and gave one of them a meaningful look.

Hmph, trying to fight her?

They were still wet behind the ears!

“Kid, who told you to speak to the boss lady like that? Apologize now, or don’t blame me for bullying the weak!”

“What? Is the truth not allowed to be spoken nowadays? You’re pretty pitiable too, going against your conscience to serve that old sow. In the end, you’ll just be cast aside ruthlessly… Is this the new kind of simp?”

“You little brat! If I don’t teach you a lesson, you won’t know your place!”

Facing the man who suddenly stepped forward, Ji Wenyan showed no fear.

If he dared to hit him, then hit him!

If he didn’t kill him, he’d have to face the consequences!

“You want to lay a hand on him? Then you’ll have to get through me first!”

But at that moment, Bai Mengze suddenly stepped in front of Ji Wenyan, shielding him with her body.

When faced with physical threats, Bai Mengze had never been afraid.

Seeing the half-veiled girl step forward, Foreman Liu, who had wanted to curry favor with the fat woman, was taken aback for a moment. Then he glanced at the still-angry boss lady, whose mouth was twisted with rage.

Without any further hesitation, Foreman Liu decided that whoever stood in his way, man or woman, was just an obstacle.

If he beat these two up well and pleased the boss lady, he might become her trusted subordinate!

Then he’d be living the good life!

Thinking this, Foreman Liu immediately swung his fist at Bai Mengze, putting all his strength into it.

“Freeze! Police! Your actions are now suspected of being illegal. I warn you: give up resistance and raise your hands, or I will be forced to take compulsory measures according to the law.”

Just as Bai Mengze was about to move, a loud shout rang out, stunning everyone present. When had the police arrived?

What a coincidence!

Seeing his father appear with the police, Ji Wenyan relaxed. He reached out and put his arm around Bai Mengze’s slender waist, pulling her aside to avoid any accidental injuries.

He had recorded everything on his phone. Soon, that fat woman would be in for it.
