The Little Landlord

Sequel: How Did You Take So Long to Come Get Me? [Historical-to-Modern]

Rong Qin, a longtime member of Earth's Looks Appreciation Society, got lucky after a mishap and found a stunningly handsome man in ancient garb on a hotel beach. Without hesitation, she tricked him into coming home with her. "Little brother, stick with me and you'll have plenty to eat and drink."

Fu Chenxing, who had transmigrated into the modern world under the protection of his ancestors, looked docile as he thought to himself: I'll humor her for now and see how things go. Make money and restore my kingdom!

Later, after Rong Qin scheduled his days so tightly that even his sleep had to be counted in seconds, Fu Chenxing finally realized that this woman wasn't after his looks at all. She only wanted to use him to make money.

Finally, when Rong Qin was late yet again after breaking her promise, Fu Chenxing could no longer hold back his hurt. He cornered her against the wall and looked down at her. "Why did you take so long to come get me? Do you know no one came for me? Do you have another little brother on the side?"

At first, Rong Qin only wanted to squeeze more money out of Fu Chenxing. Later, she realized that while making money, she might be able to get herself a little brother, too.

After their relationship became public, the media were intensely curious about how Rong Qin had tamed the entertainment industry's famously difficult cash cow.

Rong Qin smiled and shared her dating advice generously. "Dating is simple. Just buy a man whatever he likes." For instance, what Fu Chenxing liked was her, of course, but she kept that part to herself.

After seeing the news, Fu Chenxing wrapped an arm around the woman beside him. "Sis, you have no idea what I've given up for you!"

Rong Qin smiled like a flower, slipped a contract to buy an island into his hands, and dazzled everyone around her. "Little brother, I told you: whatever a man likes, buy it for him."

The End

Ever since a colleague saw her commuting in the luxury car of the company's returning CEO, rumors had been flying that Zhuang Mengdie, who had risen to become the CEO's assistant in six years, was being kept by him.

Wearing her secret identity in the company gossip chat, Zhuang Mengdie crunched a potato chip. She wondered how many people would believe her if she revealed that she was actually the CEO's landlord.

Ji Yanshen looked at his assistant, who had completely let herself go, and asked for a chip.

"Yanshen, once we're off work, we're just landlord and tenant. A bag of chips costs ten yuan. I accept WeChat and Alipay transfers."

Ding! Alipay received 5,000 yuan.

Ji Yanshen cleared out all her snacks, including the open bag in her hand.

One day, exhausted after work, Ji Yanshen came home and smelled food cooking in the kitchen. He took a bowl and chopsticks without being asked.

Zhuang Mengdie carried out a dish. "Yanshen..."

Ji Yanshen interrupted her. "I know the rules." He pulled out his phone with one hand and picked up his chopsticks with the other.

Ding! Alipay received 360,000 yuan.

Ji Yanshen raised an eyebrow at Zhuang Mengdie's horrified expression. "I'm paying for the whole year."

Later, Ji Yanshen sent gift after gift home, including property deeds, share certificates, securities, bankbooks, the latest collections from all the major luxury brands, and diamond rings of every kind. He set them before Zhuang Mengdie. "Mengmeng, I'll take care of you for the rest of your life."

At a press conference, a gossip reporter who had managed to get in deliberately asked, "President Ji, I've heard that Miss Zhuang was the one who pursued you. Women these days are certainly bold."

Ji Yanshen smiled. "No. I was the one who schemed to get close to her."

Later, rumors spread that Zhuang Mengdie had gone from sparrow to phoenix, making countless women green with envy. But the next day, they saw that every screen around the company displayed a photo of Zhuang Mengdie with a powerful tycoon, alongside a page from the family household register: "Zhuang Mengdie, my biological daughter. Zhuang Zhou."

Who is Zhuang Zhou? Young people, read more financial news and watch more CCTV.
