The landlord has multiple personalities and wants everyone to pay him.

The top floor of the Nancheng Qianxue Group, the president's office.

Qin Lili was lounging on the sofa, completely out of sorts, half-lying down, holding her phone in her hand but not actually using it, just casually turning it around. Her eyes were fixed on the woman behind the desk opposite her, who was facing a computer with a slightly furrowed brow.

The woman kept her eyes glued to the monitor, not even glancing in her direction out of the corner of her eye, completely ignoring her presence.

Qin Lili wasn't in a hurry, so she just leaned back like that. Anyway, the sofa was genuine leather, and it was so soft, like lying on a cloud. It was much more comfortable than those guesthouses outside.

She rolled over on the sofa, curled her legs to the side, and continued to stare at the woman opposite her in a side-lying position.

After a while, the office door was pushed open, and a young man in a dark suit walked in. He looked to be about the same age as Ye Shu, wearing a white shirt, black trousers, and a tie, and was carrying a freshly brewed cup of coffee.

The boy walked up to Qin Lili, not particularly surprised by her posture, and smiled as he placed the coffee on the coffee table in front of her.

"It's freshly soaked, be careful, it's hot."

"oops……"

Qin Lili immediately sat up on the sofa, as if stretching, and smiled at the boy:

"Thank you so much for making me coffee, Vice President Shen. If word got out that Vice President Shen of Qianxue Group personally made me coffee, I would be so proud."

The Vice President Shen, somewhat speechless at her exaggerated acting, chuckled:

"You must be joking."

After speaking, he turned to look at the woman behind the desk, his voice much gentler than when he spoke to Qin Lili:

"Qianxue, I'll go downstairs and see who came to discuss cooperation."

"Um."

The woman named Qianxue didn't look up; her eyes remained fixed on the monitor, and her tone was indifferent:

"Just explain our terms to him clearly; he's the one asking us to cooperate."

After speaking, she turned to look at Vice President Shen, and this time her attitude softened considerably:

"If you think it's not working out, just send the guest away. You don't need to tell me; it's your decision."

"it is good."

Vice President Shen nodded, turned around and left, closing the office door behind him.

The room fell silent again.

Qin Lili remained in the same side-lying position as in the oil painting, her arm supporting her upper body. She tilted her head, glanced at the office door, then at the woman opposite, who was looking back at the monitor, ignoring her completely. She reached for her coffee cup and took a sip.

"Hmm~"

Her "hmm" sounded forced, and her expression was one of pure enjoyment.

"The coffee that Vice President Shen brewed himself tastes amazing! Hey? Why is there a heart-shaped latte art? That's impressive, when did you learn it?"

As soon as the words were spoken, the keyboard on the other side went silent, and then a face slowly moved out from behind the monitor.

Ling Qianxue, the president of Qianxue Group, was frowning as she waited for her, her eyes clearly saying, "You'd better stop now."

"Do you have something to say about coming here?"

"Can't I come if there's nothing wrong?"

Qin Lili placed the coffee cup on the coffee table, a smirk playing on her lips:

"Miss Ling, you've finally decided to talk to me? I thought you weren't welcoming me."

Ling Qianxue rolled her eyes at her, stood up from behind her desk with an impatient expression, but still walked over to the sofa next to Qin Lili and sat down. She also glanced at the cup of coffee on the table. It was just a cup of coffee, with no latte art at all.

"When did you get back?"

Ling Qianxue crossed her arms, but her attitude softened considerably.

"I just got back not long ago."

Qin Lili lay back down on the sofa, looked up at Ling Qianxue, and said:

"I'm back for one of my girlfriends' weddings."

At this point, she suddenly smiled and said to Ling Qianxue:

"Hey, let me tell you something funny. You and my best friend are really destined to meet. My best friend is also named Xiaoxue."

Ling Qianxue raised an eyebrow:

"What's your girlfriend's name?"

"Xiaoxue."

Qin Lili deliberately kept everyone in suspense:

I won't tell you your full name, but your nickname is the same as yours anyway.

Ling Qianxue stared at her for a moment, then clicked her tongue and turned her face away.

Qin Lili stretched on the sofa, then raised her arm and let out a scream as if she had been stabbed.

Ling Qianxue sat down beside her and sighed:

"What exactly do you want from me? Just say it already, okay? I'm very busy right now."

"Then go ahead and do your thing, I'm not tying you down."

Qin Lili rolled over and lay face down on the sofa, resting her chin on a cushion, looking at her with an innocent expression:

"I didn't stop you from working, you just had to keep an eye on me."

"When did I stare at you?! You were the one who was staring at me the whole time."

"How did you know I was staring at you if you weren't looking at me?"

Ling Qianxue took a deep breath, speechless at what sounded like a primary school argument. She said to Qin Lili:

"But I can't concentrate on my work with you here."

"what?"

Qin Lili blinked and smiled:

"Am I that charming? You care about me that much?"

The two were arguing when suddenly a series of crackling sounds came from the window, and they both looked towards the window at the same time.

Goodness, the rain is pouring down! It's so heavy and fast, the raindrops are constantly hitting the window, I can't even see the building across the street.

The rain is pouring down so hard, I wonder how many unlucky people have gotten soaked.

Just as she thought of this, Qin Lili suddenly had an idea. She slowly sat up from the sofa, stretched, and then slowly put on her shoes.

The entire routine is characterized by its slow pace, almost like it's in slow motion.

"Okay, then I won't keep you from your work any longer. I'll go now."

Qin Lili deliberately spoke loudly, and Ling Qianxue didn't say anything, just watched her act.

"In this vast southern city, there is nowhere for me to stay..."

As Qin Lili moved towards the door, she murmured mournfully:

"Oh, how pitiful, how pitiful..."

Ling Qianxue sat on the sofa, her lips twitching as she watched her exaggerated acting.

She knew Qin Lili too well. The two had known each other for many years, and Qin Lili had helped her a lot when the company was first established. Their relationship was exceptionally good. Otherwise, why would Ling Qianxue, who never wastes time talking to people, have said so much to her just now?

Ling Qianxue knew that Qin Lili was waiting for her to call her, and as soon as she spoke, Qin Lili would immediately take the opportunity to back down.

She smiled slightly, crossed her arms, and watched Qin Lili's retreating figure without saying a word.

She wanted to see just how far Qin Lili could go with her acting.

Qin Lili shrieked as she shuffled toward the door. When she reached the front door, she reached out and grasped the doorknob, and then... she stopped moving.

He just held the doorknob like that, maintaining the posture of opening the door and walking out, but he just wouldn't move.

Ling Qianxue was so angry at her appearance that she laughed. She said with a smile:

"Come back."

As soon as she finished speaking, Qin Lili turned around immediately, her pitiful expression vanishing completely, replaced by a bright smile. She pounced on the sofa again, turning sideways and grinning at Ling Qianxue:

"I knew my Xiaoxue wouldn't have the heart to watch me go out and get soaked, right?"

Ling Qianxue looked at her and chuckled, then scolded her:

"Rogue."

But she couldn't help but smile slightly, only for a moment, before asking Qin Lili:

"So, are you leaving again this time you're back?"
