Urban Life: I Became Jiang Nansun's Landlord

“Impossible, Lin Yi isn’t that kind of person,” Peng Jiahe quickly said.

Lu Yuan looked at Peng Jiahe and said mercilessly, "Even if Lin Yi isn't the type to attract women, can you stop those women from getting close to him?"

Peng Jiahe was furious when he heard this.

He's clearly her older brother, so why are these women trying to steal him from her?

She's clearly not a good woman.

Seeing that she was still not giving up, Lu Yuan continued to attack her: "You're not a child anymore. Do you know what billions or tens of billions mean?"

Let me put it this way: a five-star hotel only costs a few billion yuan. Lin Yi's wealth is enough to build countless five-star hotels.

The reason for using a five-star hotel as an example is that he and Peng Jiahe's father used to work at a five-star hotel.

Having seen five-star hotels, Peng Jiahe would have a deep understanding of the example he gave.

As soon as Lu Yuan said that, Peng Jiahe started thinking about it.

A five-star hotel is big enough; all sorts of people live there.

The people who dine there are all social elites.

With Lin Yi's wealth, he could build countless hotels like this.

Lu Yuan laughed and said, "Now you know how terrifying it is, right? With your skinny arms and legs, if you were to compete with those women, your corpse could be found in the Huangpu River tomorrow. Don't blame me for not warning you then."

"No...it can't be 2.7, right?" Peng Jiahe was startled when he heard this.

“What do you think? Ordinary people would lend a helping hand for tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars, but Lin Yi has billions. How far would he have to fight for that?” Lu Yuan said.

To put it simply, palace intrigue dramas in TV series are always portrayed with restraint.

In real life, people would probably resort to any underhanded trick to get that much money.

Peng Jiahe stood up, pushed Lu Yuan aside, and was about to leave.

"Where are you going?" Lu Yuan called from behind.

"I can't be bothered with you, I'm going to sleep," Peng Jiahe said.

Seeing this, Lu Yuan couldn't help but smile.

Thankfully, he knows to be afraid, otherwise he really wouldn't be able to control him.

Honestly, a man like Lin Yi is indeed very attractive to young girls, so it's no wonder Peng Jiahe had that idea.

Back in her room, Peng Jiahe was extremely depressed.

Because what Lu Yuan said is very likely true.

How could a young girl like her compete with those women for Lin Yi?

She's no match for him at all.

She's just an ordinary person; once you think about it that way, it's completely hopeless.

Although Peng Jiahe thought this way, she was still very unwilling.

Lin Yi is clearly her older brother, so why should her older brother have to compete with others?

Peng Jiahe was furious just thinking about it.

Peng Jiahe couldn't hold back any longer and sent a message to Lin Yi.

"Big brother, are you asleep?" Peng Jiahe asked.

"No, Jiahe, why aren't you sleeping so late?" Lin Yi said.

“I can’t sleep,” Peng Jiahe said.

"What's wrong? Something on your mind?" Lin Yi asked.

Peng Jiahe looked at her phone, wondering whether she should tell Lin Yi about some of her worries.

"Hmm?" Lin Yi continued to ask.

Peng Jiahe gritted her teeth, steeled her resolve, and said directly, "I saw the interview about you today."

"Oh, so that's why I couldn't sleep. Turns out it's 15 here to interrogate me?" Lin Yi said with a smile.

"No, no, how could that be? You'll always be my big brother. You must have your reasons for doing this," Peng Jiahe quickly said.

Actually, what Peng Jiahe really wanted to ask Lin Yi was why he lied to her.

But upon hearing Lin Yi's teasing, Peng Jiahe was instantly speechless.

Lin Yi smiled and explained, "Do you remember when we first met?"

"Yes, of course I remember. How could I forget something so important?" Peng Jiahe said with a smile. "That day, you took me out to play and buy me snacks, and you even bought me clothes. I remember it very clearly. I even misunderstood you."

Lin Yi smiled and said, "Yes, it was purely by chance that we met."

The reason I kept it from you was intentional. If you hadn't seen my interview, you probably wouldn't have known my identity for a long time.

I won't tell you unless you keep asking me, because I'm afraid you'll overthink it.

It's now obvious that you're overthinking it.

Peng Jiahe burst out laughing when she saw it.

"Mmm." Peng Jiahe nodded.

Lin Yi said, "Just continue to treat me as your older brother, and don't think about anything else."

“Okay, I’ll do whatever you say,” Peng Jiahe said.

"Is there anything else? If not, you should get some rest," Lin Yi said.

"Yes, big brother, do you want to come play tomorrow?" Peng Jiahe asked.

"Sure," Lin Yi said with a smile. "But you know my identity now, and you also know my current situation. There are many reporters watching me, so I definitely can't take you around everywhere."

"Yes, yes, it's okay, it's okay. We can just chat together, we don't necessarily have to go out and play," Peng Jiahe quickly said.

“That’s fine,” Lin Yi said.

Peng Jiahe was overjoyed to see Lin Yi agree.

Her older brother is still the same older brother.

Not only that, but the older brother, fearing she might overthink things, even explained why he had kept it from her.

Peng Jiahe had no idea that she, a rebellious teenager, would turn into this after just a few months.

To put it simply, the Peng Jiahe of today is completely different from the Peng Jiahe of a few months ago.

Peng Jiahe used to be very impulsive when she talked to people, like a rebellious teenager. But look at her now, she's completely different from before.

Peng Jiahe smiled broadly as she thought about Lin Yi's answer.

Lin Yi agreed to come out and play with her tomorrow, which is a good omen.

Peng Jiahe opened the door and walked out smugly.

Lu Yuan was quite surprised to see Peng Jiahe's dramatic change.

"What's going on? Has things changed that much?" Lu Yuan asked.

"Of course! My older brother said he'll come play with me tomorrow," Peng Jiahe said smugly.

"Tomorrow? I'll play with you? Really?" Lu Yuan asked.

“Of course it’s true. My older brother has never broken a promise he made to me,” Peng Jiahe said.

"Where do we play?" Lu Yuan asked.

"Because reporters have been following him lately, he can't run around. It would be bad if the reporters found out."

Peng Jiahe said with a smile, "So, I think my older brother will come to my house to play tomorrow."

"Your home? Here?" Lu Yuan pointed to the ground.

This is indeed Peng Jiahe's home, or more accurately, Peng Jiahe's grandmother's home.

“Yes, what’s wrong? Is there a problem?” Peng Jiahe said.

"No." Lu Yuan shook his head.

"By the way, Lu Yuan, could you please go out tomorrow? Don't just stay at my house all the time." Peng Jiahe said with a smile, "You look so fierce, I'm afraid you'll scare my older brother."

"I……"

Upon hearing this, Lu Yuan was furious.

"You're meeting guests, so I have to go out and make room for you?" Lu Yuan said, his eyes wide.

But the way he tried to open his eyes wide seemed to have no effect at all; small eyes are small eyes.

“Yeah, if you don’t go out, you can’t disturb me and my older brother playing at home, right?” Peng Jiahe said with a smile.

“Peng Jiahe, you’ve gone too far!” Lu Yuan said.

"Really? This is my home," Peng Jiahe said with a smile.

“…Okay, I’ll go out, I can go out.” Lu Yuan said, “Then, wasn’t it a bit of a personal attack to say I look fierce?”

“Isn’t that right? The kid next door is always scared to tears when he sees you,” Peng Jiahe said.

"That was because his mother beat him. What does his crying have to do with me?" Lu Yuan said indignantly.

Peng Jiahe smiled and said, "It means the same thing."

Does this mean the same thing?

Upon hearing this, Lu Yuan was furious.

However, Lu Yuan still said, "I'll go then."

Just as Lu Yuan was about to leave, Peng Jiahe called out, "Lu Yuan."

Lu Yuan paused, his back to Peng Jiahe, and said, "What? Regretting it? Now you know who's truly good to you?"

“It must be because my older brother is good to me,” Peng Jiahe said.
