What's it like to pop off your ultimate with just a regular attack and a flash? That's exactly it.

He hadn't even gone into detail yet, but Wang Xing had already confessed almost everything, even swearing that such tricks might fool a lovestruck young girl, but believing even a word would be an insult to his own IQ.

In the end, no matter how much he pressed, Wang Xing still refused to admit why he suddenly didn't want to move lately, only saying he should find a place on his own, no need to worry about him, and once his work stabilizes, if they're close by, they can rent together. Such an excuse was just to be heard, after all, Su Qing had no evidence to expose him.

Besides, even if he was exposed, so what? The reason a sycophant is a sycophant is that they don't care about others' opinions; they have their own code of conduct.

Crack!

As a flash of white light streaked across the sky, illuminating the outside in a ghastly white, rain poured down like a torrent, forming wisps of white smoke on the distant buildings.

At this time, inside a large flat in a high-end neighborhood near the city center, Wen Nanqing was on the phone, while Shen Yi anxiously watched beside her.

"Alright, alright, don't want the villa in the suburbs, want to stay in the city, right? Got it, is there no requirement for the location in the city?"

"Okay, any requirements for the floor?"

"Want an open balcony? Ah, don't need it either!"

"Living alone, not too big, okay, I've noted it all down. I'll check it when I get back, and make sure to arrange a satisfying place for you. By the way, when can you make the move?"

"Alright, alright, alright, wait for my message, sorry to trouble you with this!"

While talking, Wen Nanqing was scribbling something on paper, and finally, once the call ended, this lady landlord let out a big sigh of relief, even though she was the landlord, she couldn't understand why she felt so humble.

"How did it go? What did he say?" As Wen Nanqing put down the phone, Shen Yi immediately asked.

Today was the weekend, plus it was college entrance exam day, so she rarely had a day off and wanted to get this matter settled.

Upon hearing this, Wen Nanqing wiped the nervous sweat off her forehead, then flung the paper across the table with a pout, "Really, I've lived so many years without feeling this guilty, not just because of lying, it feels like I'm a madam setting people up."

Wen Nanqing and Shen Yi were two different types of women. Shen Yi was more competent and tall, with long hair cascading down in a beautiful arc, exuding a cold and distant subtly aggressive aura when not speaking.

But Wen Nanqing was different; she resembled a genuine Jiangnan woman, her figure appeared more delicate compared to Shen Yi, but having had children added a bit of fullness. Her hair was pulled up with a wooden hairpin tucked at the back, making her seem peaceful and inviting a protective instinct at first sight.

Seeing her puffed-up look, Shen Yi was even a bit moved, stepping forward to plant a kiss, she laughed and said, "Nanqing sis, you're so beautiful, love you!"

Saying that, she picked up the piece of paper and started reading, while Wen Nanqing wiped her face in disgust and said, "Cut it out, these are all the conditions, you decide, I'm not helping with this kind of favor again, Xiao Tang should really see what you're like now."

However, Shen Yi wasn't mindful, looking at the delicate handwriting above, she couldn't help but feel elated.

Su Qing's requests were simple, not to live in a suburban villa, to stay in the city, the area didn't matter, living alone, and the space could be the same as now. As for the rent, he didn't mention it due to embarrassment, fearing a rent hike, he couldn't afford it.

But both women didn't consider the rent aspect; after all, if possible, who cared about that little bit of money.

"Nanqing sis, I'll have to trouble you again to see if there's any vacant place like this," Shen Yi laughed, knowing she was from outside, she still needed the help of the local beside her.

Upon hearing this, Wen Nanqing glared at her and said, "Alright~~ I'll call my real estate agent in a bit and have him check if there are two adjacent units."

"Since you want to be neighbors, the environment must be nice, it's quite troublesome!"

While complaining, she still accepted the task, as she was indeed the landlady.

At this moment, a little girl in pink pajamas with her hair in a bun, rubbing her eyes, walked out, softly calling, "Mom!"

Hearing this, both turned back immediately, Wen Nanqing hurried over and picked up her daughter, "Why are you out? Are you scared of the thunder?"

The little girl nodded softly, nestling into her mother's arms, she was Wen Nanqing's daughter, Wen Yun.

Seeing this, Shen Yi also approached, pinching little Yun's smiling face and said, "Don't be afraid, Xiao Yun, Auntie's here, Auntie will protect you!"

As Shen Yi stepped forward, the little girl laughed, reaching out her little hands to be held by her auntie.

Watching her daughter so easily wooed away, Wen Nanqing said teasingly, "If you like Auntie so much, then let Auntie take you home, and she can find you an uncle-in-law and give you a little brother or sister to play with."

At the mention of uncle-in-law, Shen Yi blushed slightly, glaring back, choosing not to quarrel, knowing this woman's banter was far too quick for her.

However, the little girl asked softly, "What's an uncle-in-law?"

"An uncle-in-law is your auntie's... family, just like mommy and you, someone very close," Wen Nanqing explained with a smile. She initially wanted to say uncle-in-law is your auntie's man, husband, but didn't feel like bringing up her own ex-husband, so she changed her wording.

"Then if I go with Auntie, can uncle-in-law come keep mommy company? She's scared alone at home."

Shen Yi:...

Wen Nanqing:...

Wow, this little one really knows a good deal, even understanding an exchange: if she leaves, someone else must come for mommy, quite the devoted girl!

After all, in a kid's world, everyone's family, and with the frightening thunder outside, if she and Auntie left, what would mommy do?

On the other side, the sixth floor of Nanhe Apartment

Su Qing put down his phone and let out a sigh of relief, finally it was resolved. The landlady on the other end always felt a bit off, since when did landlords grovel like this, allowing him to pick the location, then the floor, even offering an open balcony. With just 2000 yuan, are you kidding me, living there wouldn't feel safe.

People naturally wish for a good deal, but when it's too good, you can't help but worry.

"Qingzi, be honest, did you sleep with your landlord to convince her?" Wang Xing asked with a sideways glance.

"Convince how?" Su Qing asked, somewhat baffled.

But in Wang Xing's eyes, this clearly looked like a false pretense; he sneered, "Stop pretending, I can't believe it, unless you talked a billion-dollar deal with her."

"What billion-dollar... damn, sycophant A, you talking nonsense."

Wang Xing: "Sugar Mama Qing!"
