My God Raising Game

Chapter 18 The landlady is a gifted freak!
"Lack of money?"

Tang Weimin sighed.

Most students living in the Rust Belt come from relatively poor families and indeed cannot afford to travel. But there's nothing they can do; the economy is in a slump, cities are in decline, and the whole world is in this state.

"no!"

Lu Jiuling didn't want to lie. Although he didn't have much money, he could afford to go to Fanshi Ancient Town. Moreover, his homeroom teacher had already said in the class meeting that he would pay for the train tickets and accommodation.

"You are the fourth class of students I have taught as your homeroom teacher. I want to take you on a trip. If we wait until after the college entrance examination, you will be worried about your scores and won't have enough fun. If we wait until the results are released, those who did well will definitely have a great time, but those who didn't do well will inevitably be unhappy, and may even not come at all!"

Tang Weimin looked out the window.

The wind blows, and the leaves of the sycamore trees are green: "Why not take advantage of this time and go for a weekend, two days and one night? It won't take much time, and it will allow the students to relax one last time, relieve the fatigue accumulated over the past two years, and then devote themselves to preparing for the college entrance examination."

"I see!"

The homeroom teacher has already put it this way, how can I refuse?

Let's play!

Consider it a moment of relaxation.

"Don't worry about the money, I can lend it to you. Your admission to a 985 university in Jinghai will be the best reward for me!"

Tang Weimin smiled and patted Lu Jiuling on the shoulder: "Go ahead. All forty-six students in the class, not a single one can be missing, otherwise it would be my dereliction of duty as the homeroom teacher!"

"I won't let you down!"

Lu Jiuling walked back to the classroom, looking troubled.

With such a responsible homeroom teacher, is it really a bad idea for me to just give up on the college entrance exam?

Besides, there are only three months left, so why not keep pushing forward?
But the next game of the gods will decide whether you live or die...

After watching Lu Jiuling enter the classroom, Tang Weimin kept his gaze fixed on him through the glass as he walked back to his seat before heading towards his office.

His eyes were lowered, and his expression was solemn.

This two-day, one-night trip to Fan Family Ancient Town is open to everyone except you, Lu Jiuling!

……

The senior year curriculum at No. 2 High School is very demanding. Today, a physical education class was originally scheduled, but the math teacher used it to give us a test.

The students studied until the end of evening self-study. Normally, they would ride their bikes home looking exhausted, like weary birds returning to their nests. But today, everyone was excited because they were going to visit Fan's Ancient Town tomorrow.

As the girls left the school, they chattered amongst themselves, discussing what they should bring.

Lu Jiuling and Tang Lei went to the bicycle shed to get their bikes and parted ways at the school gate.

"Bye-bye, 69-ge!"

Tang Lei waved his hand, got on his bike, and pedaled furiously all the way.

Lu Jiuling is usually like this, wishing he could fly home immediately to continue studying and reduce the time wasted on the road. But now, he is relaxed and even has the leisure to appreciate the scenery on both sides of the street.

"With the option of becoming a superhuman, the pressure has been greatly reduced."

Lu Jiuling sighed.

For most people, studying and taking the college entrance exam is the only way to change their lives. Want to change course? Don't even think about it, especially for a child from an ordinary family like Lu Jiuling.

My parents don't have the financial resources or the connections.

The light from the streetlights mingled with the moonlight, casting a pale yellow glow on the ground. When you rode to the section of the old street with the hair salon, the colors suddenly became enchanting.

The three-colored light pillars inside the neon sign rotated slowly, like a glamorous stripper dancing endlessly around a steel pole.

Through the glass, you can see the beautiful hairdressers, most of them dressed boldly, in short skirts, black stockings, and high heels, with low-cut tank tops that barely cover their flesh.

A night breeze blew by, carrying with it the scent of perfume.

Lu Jiuling didn't know the name of the shop owned by the proprietress who loved wearing yoga pants, nor did he care. He just glanced at the Mai Mang Hair Salon.

Ye Shaoguang's family runs a legitimate barbershop, and to avoid misunderstandings and trouble, they close at 8 p.m. every night, so the aluminum alloy roller shutter security door was already down.

Back at Jiayuan Residential Complex, Lu Jiuling cooked and ate a packet of instant noodles, read a novel for a while, and after digesting her food, she started exercising!
Plank, sit-ups, push-ups—if Lu Jiuling wasn't worried about disturbing the downstairs neighbors, he would have done a hundred burpees.

After exercising for an hour, Lu Jiuling took a hot shower in the bathroom, did some more practice problems, and was about to go to sleep when there was a knock on the door.

dong dong!dong dong!
"What is Su Xiangrong up to now?"

Lu Jiuling frowned. It was already this late, and it was impossible for anyone other than the landlady to come looking for him.

"690, open the door now!"

Su Xiangrong's nervous whisper came through the door.

"what happened?"

Lu Jiuling opened the door.

"Did you hear any noises in the hallway?"

Su Xiangrong looked upstairs.

"No."

"You really didn't hear me?"

Su Xiangrong frowned: "But I think I heard footsteps!"

Have you seen anyone?

Lu Jiuling remembered that the landlady had mentioned yesterday that there was a thief in the building and that a pair of high heels had been stolen from the shoe rack outside her door.

"without!"

Su Xiangrong didn't dare to come out at all; she only peeked through the peephole but saw nothing.

"You've lost your shoes again?"

"I didn't look, I came straight up to find you as soon as I came out!"

Su Xiangrong urged, "Go take a walk around the hallway right away!"

"Even if there were a thief, they would have run away long ago if they heard you knocking on the door and calling me!"

Lu Jiuling didn't want to waste her time. "Why don't you go for a walk?"

Su Xiangrong said unhappily, "Aren't you worried about losing things?"

What could I possibly lose?

Lu Jiuling mocked himself, "I'm just a poor student, with only a little over a thousand yuan for living expenses. Oh, and now I have a Patek Philippe watch. What could I possibly lose?"
Those textbooks?
Even if you gave it to a thief for free, they would complain that it was too heavy to carry.

"Are you going or not? If you don't go, I'm raising the rent next month!"

Su Xiangrong's tone turned stern.

In their previous interactions, Lu Jiuling was a shy and introverted young man who never dared to look Su Xiangrong in the eye when speaking to her. Therefore, Su Xiangrong felt a sense of intimidation towards Lu Jiuling, as if she were facing a domesticated golden retriever.

If this were Lu Jiuling from two weeks ago, he definitely would have gone, but now...

"Raise it however you want!"

Lu Jiuling ignored Su Xiangrong.

If the landlady had been polite, Lu Jiuling might have checked, but with this bossy tone...

Love so and so!
Your brother Lu isn't a simp!

"You think I wouldn't dare? Five hundred more every month!"

Su Xiangrong's chest heaved with anger!

It was evening, and she was wearing a silk nightgown that reached her thighs. Because she was in a hurry to get Lu Jiuling to search the hallway, she didn't wear a bra underneath when she came out.

Lu Jiuling was a head taller than Su Xiangrong, and from his vantage point, he could see a large canyon. Moreover, because the silk was smooth and clung to his body, the landlady's curves were completely outlined. Not to mention her nipples, even her navel was faintly visible.

Lu Jiuling crossed his arms, leaned against the door frame, and looked at Su Xiangrong: "That's all the increase?"

Are you crazy?

Su Xiangrong frowned, and at the same time felt strange. Why did this boy seem to have changed?
"The peak season for renting is in the two weeks before the start of the first year of high school. If I move out now, your apartment will most likely be vacant for three months!"

Lu Jiuling looked at Su Xiangrong with a leisurely air: "Are you sure you want to raise the rent?"

"Don't you mind the hassle of moving and the disruption it will cause to your studies?"

Su Xiangrong snorted coldly.

"Hehe, I was indeed afraid before, but now..."

Once your brother Lu completes the promotion ceremony, he will be a Sequence 9 extraordinary being. What's the college entrance examination compared to that?
Su Xiangrong stared into Lu Jiuling's eyes and found that his expression was calm and he showed no sign of panic, which made her panic.

What are you doing?
This kid seems to be serious?

But where did he, a poor student from the countryside, get the confidence to challenge me?

Su Xiangrong couldn't understand it.

Despite her cheerful conversation with Lu Jiuling yesterday, and her promise to cook a feast for him once he gets into a university in Jinghai, Su Xiangrong was essentially treating Lu Jiuling with a condescending and superior attitude.

It's like having a dog at home. When I'm happy, I'll give it a bath and a big meal. But when I'm unhappy, I'll beat it or even sell it.

call!
Su Xiangrong took a deep breath to calm herself down and softened her tone: "You live here, are you willing to see thieves coming and going so often?"

The landlady had to suppress her temper because Lu Jiuling was right. The peak rental season was the two weeks before the start of the semester. If she kicked Lu Jiuling out now, it would be almost impossible to find tenants for the next three months, resulting in a huge loss.

"Why don't you just not leave your shoes in the hallway?"

Lu Jiuling guessed that the thief wasn't after money, but rather had some kind of perverted motive, specifically targeting the landlady's shoes.

"I have no room in my house!"

Su Xiangrong looked listless. She was a big spender and loved beautiful clothes and shoes, buying several pieces every month. The shoe rack in the entryway was already full.

Why don't you go and take a look?

Su Xiangrong tugged at Lu Jiuling's clothes: "I'll reduce your rent by two hundred!"

"please!"

Su Xiangrong clasped her hands together and bowed to Lu Jiuling.

Lu Jiuling didn't want thieves to be loitering around her neighborhood, so she went out and went upstairs first.

The residential building was six stories high. Lu Jiuling quickly reached the top but didn't see a single ghost. Afterward, he went back down and walked around for a while.

Found nothing.

"I told you, if there were thieves, they would have run away by now!"

Lu Jiuling said helplessly, "Next time you find someone, could you give me a call?"

"Yes!"

Su Xiangrong's eyes lit up. She wasn't familiar with Lu Jiuling. Although they had exchanged phone numbers, they had never been in contact.

Since Lu Jiuling is a student at No. 2 Middle School, he can't hide from us no matter what; he can just come to her door to ask for rent.

"How about we add each other as friends?"

Su Xiangrong took out her phone, opened WeChat, and then looked at Lu Jiuling pitifully.

I hope this guy will be available whenever I call him in the future.

"Greatness lies in tolerance?"

After adding her as a friend, Lu Jiuling glanced at Su Xiangrong's nickname and subconsciously looked at her "big thunder" (a slang term for a controversial or offensive term).

You're so confident!
Judging from the landlady's lack of formal education, this nickname certainly doesn't mean "all-encompassing" or "great tolerance."

However, to be fair, the landlady is indeed large, especially now, wearing only a silk nightgown, yet still quite shapely and full-figured, which can only be described as a terrifyingly monstrous natural endowment!
"If I hear any more noise outside, I'll contact you. Come out and arrest them right now!"

Su Xiangrong was satisfied and relieved: "You continue doing your practice questions, I'm going back to watch my drama!"

Oh, my little love, don't worry, I'll only ever hold your hand in my life.

Su Xiangrong hummed a little tune as she descended three steps, then suddenly stopped and turned to look at Lu Jiuling.
