Peninsula: My Top-Tier Landlord

Beside the taxi, Ye Fan opened the back door, his hand protecting the roof to prevent her from bumping her head when she got in, though it might not be necessary for Bae Joo-hyun. "Be careful on your way home, and remember to text me when you get home."

Bae Joo-hyun nodded, bowed slightly, and got into the car. Ye Fan then closed the car door.

Just as the driver was about to drive off, Bae Joo-hyun called out to him again, asking him to wait a little longer.

Taking a deep breath, her expression showing some struggle, Bae Joo-hyun opened her eyes again and made her decision. She rolled down the car window.

"What's wrong?" Ye Fan took a step forward, still smiling.

"Ye Fan, I think we should end this relationship."

Ye Fan's smile froze, his pupils trembled slightly, and he took deep breaths as if his chest was blocked. He opened his mouth and asked the question in a trembling voice.

"Why...why?"

"This is the result of my careful consideration. We are not from the same world, our circles are different, and we don't have anything in common at all."

His eyes welled up with tears, and Ye Fan's nose stung with emotion, as if he couldn't accept this explanation. "But weren't we having a good chat?"

"We get along very well. I cook for you every day after get off work and bring you food. When you're sick, I take care of you every step of the way. Have you forgotten all of this?"

"Yes, you take good care of me, but I want a better life. Love ultimately has to face reality. Look at you, all you do is revolve around me all day, you have no ambition whatsoever. Do you even have any money?"

"Do you have a car?"

"Do you have a room?!"

"The house I'm living in right now is still mine!"

"Thank you for taking care of me. Let's leave it at that and resume our original landlord-tenant relationship. The rent will be restored to the original price."

After saying that, Bae Joo-hyun ignored Ye Fan, who was already in tears outside the car, and said, "Master, let's go."

The car slowly started moving, and Ye Fan involuntarily stepped forward to follow. "I understand, Irene. Thank you for taking care of me these past few days. Even without me, I hope you will be happy and joyful in the future, okay?"

As the car sped up, Ye Fan's figure gradually shrank in the rearview mirror.

"Irene, don't go!"

"Irene, how can I live without you! Irene!!"

"ah!!"

Ye Fan yelled and sat up abruptly in bed. His phone next to his pillow was vibrating loudly. This wasn't a street, and there were no taxis around.

"Phew...it was just a dream..."

"What a terrible dream I had!" Ye Fan breathed a sigh of relief, raised his hand to rub his face, and then laughed out loud, speechless. The funniest thing was that the taxi driver was Seulgi.

Ye Fan threw back the covers, grabbed the remote to turn off the air conditioner and the alarm clock, and then got out of bed and left the room.

"That's strange..."

Since he met Bae Joo-hyun, this is the first time he has dreamed about her, and shouldn't the story be about swallows?

But the dream felt so real; he was truly heartbroken when he was dumped.

Spitting out the foam from his mouth, Ye Fan rinsed his mouth and splashed cold water on his face to clear his head.

After changing his clothes and grabbing his things, Ye Fan went to work.

Ye Fan bought an iced drink on the way and started his day off again. As soon as he entered the organization, he ran into Wu Yingying.

Good morning, Ye Fan.

"Good morning," Ye Fan replied to her greeting.

"You look so tired, you must have had a blast this weekend, right?" Wu Yingying teased.

"No, I just went out for a walk."

I walked to my workstation, sat down, put the ice cream on the table, and put on my employee ID.

"Ye Fan, you've rented a place but haven't even moved in yet. Do you have any plans to do that?" Wu Yingying asked, leaning on the table with one hand.

"To put it bluntly, it's just treating me to a meal, right?" Ye Fan laughed. Come to think of it, it didn't really seem like it. Sister Wu and the other colleagues were all very nice to him and took good care of him, so he wanted to treat them to a meal to express his gratitude.

"How about next month?"

"My sister came to visit, and the house is quite messy."

"Your sister?!"

"You have a younger sister?" Wu Yingying asked, intrigued.

"Yes, I just started university and came to visit during my summer vacation." Ye Fan nodded.

"OK, then next month!"

"Okay, I'll let you know when I've set a time." After checking the time and getting ready for class, Ye Fan got up to say goodbye.

Watching Ye Fan's departing figure, Wu Yingying stroked her chin thoughtfully. She wondered if Ye Fan was genuinely oblivious or pretending not to understand, as he hadn't given her a single chance.

She messages Ye Fan almost every day, but he doesn't reply very often. Most of the time, it's just emojis. He won't contact her unless she initiates a message. If she replies with a single sentence that doesn't follow up, Ye Fan won't reply at all.

It's a bit tricky.

younger sister……

Let's see if there's a chance to get to know each other, and then start with the younger sister!

At 10 o'clock, Bae Joo-hyun turned over in bed, reached for her phone next to her pillow, pressed the power button, and glanced at the time.

It's 10 o'clock, time to get up and go out. I promised Ye Xin yesterday that I would take her out for a walk.

After deleting the messages from other apps, Bae Joo-hyun checked the messages on Kakao. Ye Fan had replied at 8:30.

"I was so tired last night that I just fell asleep while lying down without even realizing it."

"I don't like watching movies, so I can't give you any recommendations, and I prefer tragedies."

She really is asleep...

She prefers tragedies, and her favorite genres are quite unique. Bae Joo-hyun replied with a "Good morning," and then asked why.

After getting up and tidying up, I still hadn't received a reply to Ye Fan's message, but I did receive a message from Ye Xin.

The weather was quite nice today, very sunny, a good day to go out and take pictures. I picked up Ye Xin at the entrance of the community and, knowing that she hadn't had breakfast, I planned to take her to have breakfast first.

Around 1 p.m., Ye Fan, who was resting and eating, opened his phone to reply to messages.

Ye Fan opened Bae Joo-hyun's message and replied. He felt that tragedies were more touching and resonated more strongly with people, whether they were novels or movies. He thought they might even cause some psychological abnormality.

"Hey bro, look, I'm having breakfast with my wife. She's absolutely gorgeous, even with just light makeup she looks stunning."

Ye Xin's message also included a photo. Ye Fan clicked on it and took a look. Unlike yesterday's bun hairstyle, today she simply tied her hair into a ponytail, looking relaxed and casual, but her face was the best accessory.

But looking at Bae Joo-hyun's photo reminded Ye Fan of the dream he had, in which he chased after a taxi, tears streaming down his face, shouting, "Irene, how can I live without you?!"

Ye Fan shuddered, then transferred two thousand yuan to Ye Xin, telling her not to think about making others pay just because of her status.

"knew!"
