ALMIGHTY DAUGHTER RUNS THE WORLD- Part 1

Chapter 21: Call Him Daddy!

"Hmm." Li Qiandong nodded.

In truth, Li Qiandong was even more worried about the CIS situation than Cen Shaoqing.

However, there was nothing that he could do.

They had searched far and wide, but a mogul who was capable of solving their problem had yet to appear.

"Alright. You can go home first." Cen Shaoqing massaged his temples with his long, slim fingers.

Li Qiandong turned around to leave, but just as he was about to walk out of the door, Cen Shaoqing's voice was heard from behind him.

"Turn on the light while you're there."

Li Qiandong was speechless. He had even suspected that Cen Shaoqing had him coming to the room in the middle of the night just so he could turn on the light. However, he did not have any proof.

The next morning, Ye Zhuo checked her phone while she munched on a steamed bun. Her expression was nonchalant while her jade-like fingertips pressed on the screen gently. All of a sudden, she stopped at a website.

It was a house rental advertisement.

It was a three-bedroom house at a rental of 5000 bucks a month. The terms for payment would be one month's worth of rental as a deposit and three months' worth of rental fees in advance. It was a direct rental from the landlord, and the rental was considered somewhat reasonable.

Ye Zhuo clicked to enter the page and communicated with the landlord online to make an appointment so that she could see the house. After breakfast, she headed over.

It was a resettlement housing estate where the residents were primarily senior citizens and migrant workers. It was not considered a great location, but as compared to the basement, it was more than a hundred times better.

She wanted to rent the house on the first floor that came with an attached little garden in front.

The landlord was a very kind old woman. She wore glasses and spoke with a local Yunjing accent.

Through the conversation, Ye Zhuo learned that the old woman was actually a scholar. Before her retirement, she was a professor in Yunjing Province.

"Little Ye, how many family members are going to stay here?"

Ye Zhuo answered, "My mother and I, as well as my uncle."

The old woman nodded. "I don't have any requests other than hoping that all of you are hygienic people. The previous tenant was a young married couple that appeared to be rather hygienic. Unfortunately, I didn't expect that they'd turn the house into a messy kennel! The house was filthy and smelly! I'm just going to be blunt here; some people are just bright and shiny on the outside but rotten on the inside!"

Even though it had already been some time since the incident, the old woman was still very furious every time she talked about it.

In response, Ye Zhuo chuckled and said, "Don't you worry, madam landlady. My family members are neat freaks. If you're still worried, you can come and check on the house periodically."

Upon saying that, the old landlady was quite relieved. "Oh right, Little Ye, how old are you now?"

Ye Zhuo answered, "I'm 18 years old this year."

"Do you have a boyfriend?"

Ye Zhuo smiled. "I'm still in school."

The old landlady added, "There are many people who start dating in school these days! In truth, it's fine to date early as long as it doesn't affect your studies...."
