Peninsula: My Top-Tier Landlord
Chapter 3: Two gold bricks!
"You didn't need to bring this up again, did you?" Bae Joo-hyun rolled her eyes. She had just mentioned yesterday's question about who was prettier, her or Jisoo.
"Unnie, I didn't expect you two to be so compatible. You can..." Kang Seulgi's lips curled up, her small eyes narrowed slightly, and she had a teasing look on her face.
This woman was just pressured by her family to find a boyfriend yesterday, and now her boyfriend has finally arrived!
We met yesterday, and we met again today. They even became my tenants. What a coincidence!
"Stop!"
Bae Joo-hyun raised her hand to stop Kang Seul-gi from saying anything more. After spending so much time together, she knew exactly what kind of fart this younger sister was going to say the moment she lifted her butt.
"Stop having such dangerous thoughts. He's seven years younger than me."
Although Ye Fan made a good impression on her, with his good looks and the fact that he knew how to behave appropriately during their brief time together, this wasn't how you talk about dating someone younger than you—there's a seven-year age gap!
The age gap is quite large, almost 10 years, which feels like an old cow eating young grass.
"So what if he's 7 years old?"
"Unnie, you're not old, and you're young and energetic. Otherwise, you can't possibly find someone older, can you?" Kang Seulgi said nonchalantly. Many people in the industry find younger men after they become rich.
Anyway, she felt that a 7-year age gap was acceptable; there are age differences of more than 10 years in the industry.
To be fair, the things girls talk about in private can sometimes be quite risqué, just as much as what boys say, especially since they're not young girls in their late teens or early twenties anymore.
Looking at the self-righteous Kang Seulgi, Bae Joo-hyun's lips twitched. You really are a little brat.
What does it mean to be energetic?
What kind of insolent and lewd words are these?
Inside the rented apartment, Ye Fan was surprised to receive a call from his father, Ye Teng, who was asking how he was doing and whether he had adapted well. Then came the suffocating topic of urging him to find a partner.
"Dad, I'm only 25. Aren't you pushing me a little too early?"
"What's wrong with 25? You're almost 30, that's not young anymore. It's good to find a girlfriend first. I wouldn't mind if you brought a Korean girlfriend back with you."
"By the way, didn't you say your landlord is a woman?"
"Stop messing around, Dad. He's seven years older than me." Ye Fan sighed and rubbed his forehead. Is this how the older generation fights?
"So what if she's seven years older? 'A woman three years older is like holding a gold brick,' meaning she's worth two gold bricks."
Ye Fan rolled his eyes, then coughed twice and held the microphone away. "Hello, the signal is a bit bad, Dad. I'll hang up now. Let's talk again later."
"You little rascal..."
He hung up the phone, tossed it onto the sofa, and rubbed his face with a hint of helplessness.
Honestly, they start pressuring me to find a partner right after graduation, even though I don't have a stable job or much savings.
Although he feels envious when he sees sweet interactions between couples online, he doesn't really want to be in a relationship. Before even starting, he feels that it won't last and there's no future. Plus, the thought of having to coax the other person when they throw a tantrum makes him feel like it's a waste of time and energy.
Plus, marriage requires dowry, a house, a car, etc., which is too expensive, so I don't plan to get involved in this project at the moment.
As for finding your landlord...
Do not make jokes.
Ye Fan waved his hand. She's a beautiful superstar. The kind of plot where a female star falls in love with an ordinary person like me only exists in movies and novels.
I should think about how to make money first.
He got up and went to his computer desk, turned on the computer, downloaded games and live streaming software, took a deep breath, mentally prepared himself, logged into his live streaming account, and started his first live stream.
After clicking to start the live stream, two or three people entered the live stream room within two minutes. Before Ye Fan could finish his welcome speech, the other party left.
Grass!
Lower your expectations, lower your expectations...
Ye Fan took another deep breath, adjusted his mindset, and then picked up the guitar he had brought, intending to try a different approach.
His voice is alright. When he was a student, he studied music for a while in order to impress girls.
While Ye Fan was working hard on his live streaming career, Bae Joo-hyun received another video call from her mother.
Kang Seulgi took a sip of beer and turned down the TV volume. When she heard the topic of relationships again, she moved closer to the TV.
Bae Joo-hyun pouted in protest, indicating that she didn't really want to talk about this topic, but her protest was ineffective.
Glancing at Seulgi, who was watching the drama unfold, Bae Joohyun recalled the idea Seulgi had given her yesterday. After thinking it over, Bae Joohyun said, "Well, I already have a boyfriend."
Kang Seulgi's small eyes widened instantly. She bit her lip, trying hard not to laugh out loud.
Unnie is really all talk and no action! Yesterday she was complaining about her own ideas, but today she's putting them to use?
There was a brief silence on the other end of the phone, followed by a questioning yet delighted reply: "But you said you didn't when you were home?"
"We've only been in contact for a short time, and things aren't stable yet, so we're keeping it a secret for now."
"Okay, let's put this topic aside for now. Don't rush me anymore." Bae Joo-hyun ignored Kang Seul-gi's teasing gaze and continued to tug at her mother's arm.
"Okay, okay, that's good. Let's get along well."
"By the way, is the other person someone in the industry?"
"What kind of work do you do?"
Bae Joo-hyun answered Seulgi's words from yesterday, stating, "I'm not in the entertainment industry."
"Forehead……"
When asked about his profession, Bae Joo-hyun hesitated briefly. It was so sudden that she couldn't come up with a perfect answer right away. Remembering what Ye Fan had mentioned about his profession during their conversation earlier that day, Bae Joo-hyun blurted out, "He's a... teacher."
"Alright, alright, Mom, don't ask so many questions. We've only just started dating, let's talk about it when things are more stable."
After saying goodnight, Bae Joo-hyun hung up the phone and collapsed onto the sofa, looking exhausted. Dealing with this kind of topic was really difficult.
Kang Seulgi propped her head up with her hand, looking at her older sister with a playful expression. "Unnie, didn't you say you wouldn't use my ideas? Hehe, you say you don't want them, but your actions speak louder than words."
"I'm just a little helpless after what they've said."
"Who is that teacher?" Kang Seulgi raised an eyebrow, a playful look on her face.
"I just said it casually, don't take it to heart."
"Pfft!"
Ye Fan touched his nose. Why did he feel like someone was talking about him?
Ye Fan wiped his face with a tissue and stared at the data from the live stream for two hours. The highest number of viewers was 91, then he followed 3 new accounts and received 29 yuan worth of gifts.
Hmm... it feels alright, and this is my first live stream, so let's take it slow.
However, a comment from a netizen named "Careful in Words and Actions" has bothered him quite a bit.
Instead of claiming you sing well and speak Korean and English, why not go live on foreign websites to create entertaining content?
Ye Fan thought about it carefully and felt that this might indeed be worth a try...
