Urban Life: I Became Jiang Nansun's Landlord

Lin Yi's feelings are for Guan Ju'er, for Andy. Who do you think you are, Qu Xiaoxiao? You have absolutely no self-awareness.

Honestly, if Andy or Guan Juer needed anything, Lin Yi would be willing to help without them even having to ask.

But if it were Qu Xiaoxiao, Lin Yi really wouldn't want to help unless the price was right.

Because this woman is no pushover.

This time, Lin Yi agreed simply because he wanted to try out Qu Xiaoxiao's taste.

Apart from that, Lin Yi had no good feelings towards Qu Xiaoxiao.

Lin Yi was driving along when he suddenly received a phone call.

It was Deng Xiaoqi calling.

Lin Yi answered the phone.

Deng Xiaoqi said, "Brother Yi, I have my art exam the day after tomorrow. Can you take me to the exam?"

"???"

Lin Yi was somewhat surprised. What the hell?

Deng Xiaoqi, if you're going to take the art exam, why don't you let your mother take it, and instead let him take it?

Unexpectedly, Deng Xiaoqi added another comment.

"Brother Yi, I'm eighteen now, I'm an adult."

"..."

Lin Yi wanted to refuse after hearing this.

"Xiaoqi, this is such a big deal for the art exam, shouldn't we ask your mother to take you?"

Asking me to take you there is a bit inappropriate.

And also, didn't I say that a few days ago?

Deng Xiaoqi said, "Brother Yi, that's what I was thinking too, but my mom has been very busy these past few days."

"Do you think I believe it or not?"

Deng Xiaoqi blushed slightly and whispered, "Brother Yi, I'm already eighteen. I'm already an adult."

"..."

No, Deng Xiaoqi, are you crazy?

Whether you're eighteen or not, whether you're an adult or not... what does that have to do with me?

What does this have to do with your art exam?

Lin Yi finally understood: girls these days are really thoughtful and bold.

He's only just turned 18, and he's already hanging out with a stranger... well, he's not exactly a stranger.

However, Deng Xiaoqi's thoughts were indeed bold.

"I don't understand what you're saying. I advise you not to have any other ideas and to focus on your studies."

With your grades, you're perfectly capable of getting into a good university. Don't overthink things right now.

Lin Yi didn't want her situation to affect Deng Xiaoqi's future.

It's worth noting that in the original drama, Deng Xiaoqi was admitted to the Central Academy of Drama.

What does this mean? It means that both his art exam scores and his academic scores were excellent; otherwise, he wouldn't have been admitted to the Central Academy of Drama.

Now, if his appearance ruins the girl's future, then he will be committing a serious crime.

Of course, what Deng Xiaoqi wants to take the exam for now is the Magic Play, which is a bit different from the original play.

But Magic Theatre is no slouch either; it's one of the top-ranked shows in the country, and its standards are still quite high.

Deng Xiaoqi pleaded, "Oh, Yi-ge, please help me out! Can you really bear to see me without anyone to pick me up and drop me off during my art exams?"

Is something really wrong with your family?

Deng Xiaoqi replied affirmatively, "It's true, Brother Yi, I'm not lying to you."

As you know, my mother is a businesswoman. She said there was an urgent matter at the company, so she went to take care of it.

"I can give you a ride, but you have to promise me that you won't have any wild thoughts during this time."

Deng Xiaoqi immediately agreed.

Deng Xiaoqi smiled and said, "Okay, Brother Yi, it's settled then. You can't lie to me."

"How could I lie to you about something so important? Don't worry."

Deng Xiaoqi smiled and said, "Thank you, Brother Yi."

"Stop. Just focus on your art exam; that's the biggest thank you you can give me."

Deng Xiaoqi: "Yes, Yi-ge, don't worry, I definitely will."

We chatted for a few more minutes, then hung up the phone.

Lin Yi was afraid he would forget the day after tomorrow, so he specially set a date reminder.

……

At Deng Xiaoqi's home, Deng Xiaoqi and her mother are staring at each other.

Deng Xiaoqi's mother said, "Xiaoqi, have you gone mad?"

Deng Xiaoqi blushed, looked at her mother, and said, "Mom, please let me be willful just this once."

Deng Xiaoqi's mother was filled with helplessness, but seeing her daughter's insistence, she could only nod.

Deng Xiaoqi's mother said, "Xiaoqi, it's understandable that you have feelings for Lin Yi."

If Mom were ten years younger, she would also be attracted to a handsome and charming man like Lin Yi.

That's understandable; after all, what girl doesn't dream of love?

But you still need to do well on the art exam, otherwise all your hard work will be wasted on a score of 2.7.

Also, do you think that someone with Lin Yi's background would be a high school graduate following him in the future? Do you think that's possible?

Upon hearing this, Deng Xiaoqi immediately understood.

Yes, given Lin Yi's status, how could the woman by his side in the future be a high school graduate?

No, she has to go to university.

No, she has to go to university.

Previously, Deng Xiaoqi's goal in applying to art school was to become a big star, because she thought being a big star was glamorous.

Now, Deng Xiaoqi's purpose in taking the art exam is to improve her academic qualifications.

Compared to students from general education programs taking the postgraduate entrance exam, it's much easier for her, an art school student, to do so.

This is also a good approach.

Deng Xiaoqi has even thought about her plans for the next few years.

"Mom, you're right. I must study hard, and I must get into the Magic Theatre," Deng Xiaoqi said.

The Shanghai Theatre Academy, located in Shanghai, is one of the top art schools in the country.

Once she gets into university, it will be much easier for her to get in touch with Lin Yi again, because Deng Xiaoqi heard that art schools are generally not very strict.

Seeing her daughter like this, Deng Xiaoqi's mother didn't know what to do.

Lin Yi is a truly outstanding man, and it's understandable that his daughter would like him.

The key point is that Lin Yi's identity is not something an ordinary person can covet.

Lin Yi's identity is definitely among the most outstanding young people in Shanghai.

Others may have achieved their success because of their family connections, but Lin Yi? Throughout his long career in business, he has relied entirely on himself.

It's truly astonishing that a young man with no connections could build a company worth tens of billions.

The key point is that Lin Yi's two companies are clearly still growing.

Lin Yi's decoration company is not yet number one in the country; it is currently only number one in East China.

Of course, at this rate of development, it's estimated that it won't be long before it becomes the number one decoration company in the country.

There were also real estate companies that initially spent over 10 billion yuan hoarding land, which was ridiculed by people in private.

As a result, Huihuang Real Estate acquired one-fifth of the land in Area A that was being developed.

What is this concept?

To put it simply, as long as Brilliant Real Estate cooperates with the government to complete the development of Area A, Lin Yi's real estate company alone will be worth tens of billions.

It's just so scary.

Once Lin Yi's two companies have fully grown, she can't even imagine what level they will reach.

At least hundreds of billions.

This is how Deng Xiaoqi's mother feels.

Her family is somewhat wealthy, but it depends on who you compare them to. Compared to someone like Lin Yi...

Okay, she doesn't (

The gap between the two sides is simply too great. At most, they are not poor and have a little money, but compared with a large company like Lin Yi's, their family is really nothing.

Deng Xiaoqi's mother said, "Lin Yi is very capable, and our family can't offer you much help."

Your mother can at most ensure you have enough to eat and wear for the rest of your life, but it's probably impossible for you to win over Lin Yi with that.
