Almighty Sweet Queen is Really Rich!

Chapter 799: Chapter 799: Xuan Ting Applies for a Job

Rent... collecting rent?

A vein on Feng Huaijin’s handsome forehead twitched suddenly. When did he become a landlord in her image?

Does he care about that little bit of money?

Su Li, absorbed in her thoughts, continued, ”But we have to collect it, because I’m living with Haohao and Xiao Mian. Their personalities wouldn’t allow them to live in someone else’s house for free; they’d definitely pay.”

When Xu Haohao and Lu Xiaomian pay the rent, it’d feel strange if she didn’t pay.

Feng Huaijin’s lips curled slightly, and he pointedly said, ”I don’t want it, but if they insist, you can collect it.”

Su Li paused slightly with her hand around the key. His house collecting rent but letting her spend it...

Her heart suddenly stirred, as if something was about to break free.

Su Li looked at Feng Huaijin’s elegant and handsome face, wanting to say something but then remembering Tuanzi, and couldn’t utter a word.

With Tuanzi possibly causing trouble by coming over, Su Li had no mood to develop anything with Feng Huaijin, nor to pierce through the thin veil between them.

Because of Feng Huaijin’s offered house, after Su Li and the others wrote an application with their counselor, they got permission to move out.

The villa wasn’t big, just two floors, and was a house gifted by Jianghai University to recognize the contributions of retired professors. Occasionally, you could see a few retired professors drinking tea, playing chess, and reading newspapers.

Su Li and the others quickly moved into the small villa. Su Li was tidying up her room when Xu Haohao suddenly rushed in.

”Xiao Li, Xiao Li, I just heard some professors downstairs talking that there’s been a burglar around here recently. A few days ago, one stole a professor’s laptop, which contained extensive chemical data. It hasn’t been found, and it directly sent the professor to the hospital.”

Xu Haohao remarked with some worry, ”What if we’re asleep at midnight, and someone sneaks in to steal something and touches us?”

Su Li was curious, ”Did the professors not lock the doors and windows?”

Xu Haohao sat on Su Li’s bed, slapped her thigh and said angrily, ”That’s the weird part, all those professors said they replaced the locks with the newest and best ones, but still got burglarized.”

Su Li furrowed her brows slightly, also feeling a bit worried.

What if she sleeps so deeply at night that a thief, enticed by her appearance, attempts something improper? After all, professors are old, but they are still young and pretty girls.

The more Xu Haohao thought about it, the more scared she became, immediately clapped her hands and said, ”I’ll hire a bodyguard online right away.”

Xu Haohao was holding forty million; hiring a bodyguard would be easy.

Xu Haohao immediately went online and posted a hiring notice.

Su Li thought Xu Haohao’s approach was unreliable. She suggested they might as well go directly to a security company to hire a martial arts expert.

Then that evening, when the three had tidied up and were ready for dinner, the doorbell rang.

Su Li and the others exchanged glances, seeing surprise in each other’s eyes.

Xu Haohao quickly got up to open the door, only to see a blonde youth with a big backpack walking in, wiping a light sweat from his face. He smiled brightly, revealing two rows of white teeth, ”I heard you’re hiring a villa bodyguard? Is it with room and board? I don’t eat much; salary can be negotiable.”

Su Li focused her gaze, blurting out, ”Xuan Ting? Fourth Senior Brother? Weren’t you called back to the Northern Land by First Senior Brother? How did you come back?”
