Film and Television: Are the leading ladies using my rewards?

"You're making it sound like you're so embarrassed. Do you think I wouldn't pay you? Just tell me how much?"

"Why not?"

"If you don't take my money now, I'll have to buy you gifts every month. I don't know if you'll be happy or not. Don't turn around and drag them all out of the house."

"Tell me quickly, how much!"

"You really want to pay?"

"hold head high!"

"Hmm..." Song Qian stopped fooling around, raised her head and thought for a moment, "Anyway, two-bedroom apartments in this neighborhood all start at 15,000..."

"Oh dear, why would I ask you for money!"

He said something and then turned his face to the side.

After thinking for a moment, Song Qian spoke again:

"How about this, twelve thousand, is that alright?"

"...Oh, okay, okay!"

Tong Wenjie agreed quite readily.

But as soon as she turned her head, without pretending, Tong Wenjie clutched her chest and muttered to herself.

"Oh dear, my heart aches for you!"

Song Qian raised an eyebrow: "Still feeling sorry for him?"

"Twelve thousand!"

"Even if it's cheaper, I'll still feel the pinch, you know that?!"

"I don't feel sorry for you, I don't feel sorry for you at all! How could I let you feel sorry for me!"

Fearing that Tong Wenjie might change her mind, Song Qian gave her further instructions.

"Seriously, Wenjie, you should go back and discuss this with Fang Yuan."

"What are you discussing?" Tong Wenjie, who was looking at the kitchen, suddenly turned around. "Money, can you give me a discount?"

"go with!"

Song Qian rolled her eyes and said seriously:

"Although this house is hard to rent out, it can still be rented out. You don't need to save face for me. The main problem is that the feng shui of this house is really bad."

"I don't believe in that."

"What if Fang Yuan is superstitious and doesn't believe me?

"What's the use of his taboos? I'm the boss in my own home. I don't have any taboos, so why should he? Besides, we have Brother Gao to back us up, so we might not actually rent this place."

"Too‥‥"

At this point, Song Qian became interested again and brought up the earlier topic.

"So, do you think feng shui even exists?"

"If there really is such a thing as feng shui, then it's my bad feng shui. How did I end up meeting such a scumbag like Qiao Weidong?"

"Just thinking about it makes me furious!"

Fortunately, she has now awakened superpowers and changed her luck to become a woman of destiny.

Taking two steps closer, Tong Wenjie whispered, "Qiao Weidong and that woman broke up a long time ago, right?"

Song Qian replied indifferently, "I don't care about him at all."

"Yingzi did mention it to me, saying that his girlfriend hadn't broken up with him. Yingzi was really angry about it."

“That’s right,” Tong Wenjie scoffed. “If he didn’t exist, he wouldn’t be him. He’s just like that, don’t bother with him.”

"That's right, but Fang Yuan is not bad!"

"Fang Yuan, that's the troublemaker Fang Gonggong. He's all talk and no action, and he almost got himself into trouble."

"Does he have any manly spirit at all? His lack of worldly desires is truly infuriating!"

"Now that you mention it, I'm so glad I have Yingzi!"

...

Evening, at the supermarket.

"If she wanted to rent her house to you, she shouldn't have told you that there was a problem with the feng shui of her house. That doesn't make sense!"

Tong Wenjie was already quite irritable due to the series of upsetting things that had happened recently; after chatting with Song Qian about the house in the morning, she found the other party to be even more disdainful.

He's still nagging and rambling on and on.

Feeling extremely annoyed, he snapped back.

"What are you talking about? This is nonsense. What do you mean it doesn't make sense?"

"Or do you want to argue with me like that annoying Ye Bai?"

“How is that being unreasonable?” Fang Yuan was always one to give advice. “Fine, since you’re not convinced, I’ll help you analyze this matter properly.”

“I think the fact that Song Qian told you that her house has a feng shui problem is itself a problem.”

"What kind of problem is this?"

"It's the problem that she shouldn't have asked this question."

He saw Tong Wenjie picking out tomatoes, not listening to him.

Fang Yuan teased her like a dog or a cat, rubbing her chin to make her turn her head.

"Hey, little Tong, you'd better speak honestly!"

"Logically speaking, whether she wants to rent to you or not, as the landlord, she shouldn't say that there's a problem with the feng shui of the house."

"I think it's because she's too familiar with you. Acquaintances can't raise prices, and they even have to give you discounts, so the rental income is too low, but she's too embarrassed to refuse you."

"So, that's why she used feng shui as an excuse, right?"

"Wind, feng shui, where is the feng shui? Where is it? Where is the feng shui?!"

As he finished speaking, he looked around aimlessly, as if searching for non-existent feng shui to serve as evidence for his words.

Tong Wenjie's eyes widened as she put the tomatoes into a bag and into the shopping cart.

"Fang Yuan, if you stick on fur, you're a monkey?"

"Could it be that I'm close to Song Qian, and she cherishes this friendship, that's why she said that!"

"Look at you, if you used this energy to make money instead of that damn turtle that almost got you to go, our family would be rich by now."

"Back then, we wouldn't be arguing about a rent of over ten thousand yuan."

"So that's why you don't hold a grudge against that little rascal Ye Bai at all. So you wanted to learn from him, and all you can do is be so pretentious!"

After saying that, thinking about her best friend's happy life, she started complaining again.

"Look at Song Qian, she had such foresight more than ten years ago. She bought four houses in one go, and her life is set, isn't it?"

"If I had four houses like her, and my son was also an excellent student, I might look as young as a teenager."

"You're just being petty and judging others by your own standards. Why can't Song Qian genuinely want to rent me the house and sincerely tell me that there's a problem with the house!"

As they talked, Fang Yuan's gaze kept wandering to the beautiful woman next to him.

Tong Wenjie reached out and patted his arm.

But now that's happened, I'm not in the mood to scold him anymore.

With the family in such a state, he still has the mind to look at beautiful women and grumble. He might as well just wait to die!

Without me, this family will fall apart sooner or later, so let it fall apart!

Hearing Tong Wenjie's envy, jealousy, and hatred towards Song Qian, and hearing about the slap she just gave him...

Fang Yuan knew that what he should do most right now was to make his wife happy.

So he put his arm around Tong Wenjie and deliberately said:

"Wife, I have to correct you on something."

"First of all—bang bang bang, those are three houses."

As he spoke, Fang Yuan glanced around to make sure no one could hear him.

As soon as she said that, Tong Wenjie laughed.

She playfully slapped Fang Yuan with a hint of embarrassment and annoyance.

"I'm sick!"

However, this time, he clearly didn't use much force, and his anger dissipated immediately.

Fang Yuan's words implied that Tong Wenjie was bad at math, but also implied that she was talking about sex in public and making lewd jokes, thus implying that Song Qian's house was not proper and that Tong Wenjie was upright and honest.

The former made Tong Wenjie feel both ashamed and annoyed, and also a little embarrassed.

the latter‥‥

Even if the person being talked about is your best friend.

But if my husband praises me, then I might as well step on my best friend's foot!

Seeing that Tong Wenjie had calmed down and even hugged his arm, Fang Yuan continued:

"And then there are the exceptions. I don't believe in feng shui at all. I'm a materialist. I only believe in cheap things."

If you don't have money, you won't have the backbone to speak up.

If Song Qian could give it to me for free, that would be the best!

Tong Wenjie also sighed and brought up Song Qian's (Ye Bai's) explanation.

"I'm not saying I believe in this, I'm just saying... Once you've formed this kind of psychological suggestion, it's very difficult to avoid it."

"You mean that apartment, with so many tenants living there, and none of these kids doing well on their exams? Won't that cause some negative interference?"

Seeing Fang Yuan looking over, Tong Wenjie waved her hand.
