This Childhood Sweetheart is a Little Sweet

Chapter 10

On the other hand, the situation was difficult for the person standing on the outdoor air conditioning unit.

"Damn, why is it so high here..."

Yi Ming, who had a severe fear of heights, didn't dare look down at all. Hearing Jiang Wei's voice speaking on the balcony, he impulsively climbed onto the outdoor air conditioning unit to eavesdrop. But he didn't expect that it would now be so difficult to climb back.

Coincidentally, when the roof leaks on a rainy night, the very curious Xiao Shi secretly opened the door to the balcony and snuck out again.

Yi Ming held his breath, afraid that Xiao Shi would discover him.

Fortunately Xiao Shi didn't seem to have this intention. Just as Yi Ming secretly breathed a sigh of relief, his eyes caught sight of a certain small dog leisurely walking towards him. It then stepped up onto the pile of items in the corner by the wall...

Xiao Shi slowly looked up, staring at Yi Ming just a few centimeters away.

Yi Ming looked back at it in shock.

The most frightening thing is when the air suddenly falls silent...

Feeling nervous, Yi Ming hurriedly lowered his voice, trying to curry favor as he smiled at Xiao Shi: "Friend, with your thick eyebrows and big eyes, you must be a girl. Since we're different genders, could you show some mercy..."

Before Yi Ming could finish speaking, Xiao Shi suddenly raised its hind leg without warning, and with a "swish" sound, took a nice solid pee directly onto Yi Ming's freshly coated Air Force 1 Nike shoes. Perhaps because it had been kicked a few days prior, the color of Xiao Shi's urine even looked somewhat inflamed.

Yi Ming: "..."

The snow white shoes slowly turned into a color difficult to describe, and before leaving, Xiao Shi deliberately glanced back at him once more. That look seemed to say: "Don't fall for me, I'm just a peeing machine without feelings."

That night, the wind on the balcony was quite strong and cool. A 1.87 meter tall man crouched on the outdoor air conditioning unit, hugging his taken off Air Force 1s, and doubted his life for half the night.

In order to rent the room next to Jiang Wei's, Yi Ming had put in some effort.

The landlord was indeed living well in Canada, and he certainly wasn't lacking money either, but this didn't mean he had no other interests. Yi Ming contacted the property owner in a long distance call, and the person said: "I had a fortune teller calculate the fortune of this house before, it's fengshui treasure ground. If you want to rent it, five thousand minimum."

Hearing this price, it was clearly not a sincere offer. The other party indicated not caring whether it was rented or not.

Yi Ming was neither servile nor overbearing. When doing business, you have to learn to grasp the other's pain points.

Although the landlord was overseas, his son lived with his mother domestically. The landlord lacked nothing, except for educational methods regarding the "spirit beast" in his family. He came from a medical family, and hoped that his son would also follow in this path. The boy was 16 years old this year, right in his rebellious period. He chose to adamantly oppose his father's suggestions, even threatening suicide.

With just one tactic, Yi Ming managed to get control over the rebellious boy. He told the teenager that if he continued to oppose his father, after graduating he would be forced to inherit his grandfather's hundred million dollar fortune. He said that him liking rollerblading was fine too, wouldn't he still be able to participate in competitions even after becoming a doctor? It would definitely be more free and easy than sitting in the CEO's office looking over account books.

After thinking about it, the boy felt this brother was truly wise. In order not to inherit the hundred million dollar fortune, he went all out.

Yi Ming: What suffocating worries...

Hearing that his son had come around, the landlord was extremely grateful to Yi Ming. He immediately offered to rent it to Yi Ming for free.

Yi Ming said: I can't do that. A gentleman does not accept favors casually. How about I provide long distance video tutoring to your son? My grandma read my fortune when I was small, and said that in my previous life I committed grave sins, so I have to do more good deeds in this life to make up for it.

Upon hearing this, the landlord thought seriously: "Then would you mind doing some more good deeds?"

Yi Ming: "Oh?"

"The toilet's been clogged for years in that room you want to rent, could you help me clear that up? I won't charge you rent then. For you to be able to live several more years, I'm holding back my desire to charge rent, don't be too grateful to me."

Yi Ming: "..."
