Rental Nightmare! My Mortal Enemy Landlord Is a Master Flirt

[Rivals-to-Lovers] [Sweet Romance] [Sly Buddhist Monk x Spirited Girl] [Two Strong Leads] [The Heroine Chases the Hero]

Song Nianchu found a huge problem with her rental! She had already signed the contract when she discovered that her landlord was her older brother's sworn enemy, Gao Tianze.

Her brother gloated: "That guy's an icy Buddhist monk from the finance world, cold-blooded and rigid. Just wait until he rips you off!"

But reality gave his words a brutal face-slapping: when a pipe burst late at night, Gao Tianze braved the cold to fix it. His wet shirt outlined his lean waist and abs, and he even crouched to help her change her slippers. When she said she was afraid of the dark, he brought over a warm-glow lamp and casually pinched her soft cheek, teasing her for being "such a scaredy-cat." When period cramps left her curled up on the sofa, he quietly made brown sugar ginger tea and tucked a hot-water bottle into her arms. Even when she watched shows and ate chips, he bent down to wipe the crumbs from the corner of her mouth, his gaze dark and suggestive.

Song Nianchu panicked: "Bro! He's not an icy mountain at all. He's a sly old fox who knows how to reel people in!"

Even worse, he saw the "complaints" she'd casually scribbled on a sticky note on the fridge. It listed "Gao Tianze's Dangerous Behaviors," including "stands too close while fixing pipes," "cheek-pinching is cheating," and "feeding me ginger tea is way too intimate." At the end, she'd drawn a crying face and written: "At this rate, I'll fall for him. I have to stay away!"

Gao Tianze held down the hand she reached out to snatch her tablet, leaned close to her ear, and chuckled. "I don't want an explanation. I only want to know: when are you going to take responsibility for me?"

Later, her brother came over, eager to gloat, only to find his sister curled up in Gao Tianze's arms, peeling a mandarin. He exploded on the spot: "Gao Tianze, how dare you steal my sister?!"

Gao Tianze hugged her tighter and smiled. "I waived the rent ages ago. Stealing your sister is my lifelong career."
