Chapter 69: Farewell, Yesterday’s Nostalgia

Xiao Wen returned to Liu Qing’s rented house after work. Before she went upstairs, she heard Liu Qing talking to the landlord.

Liu Qing had arrived a long time ago and was discussing the matter of returning the rent with the landlord.

He had told the landlord that he wanted to cancel the lease, but he had said that it would be for a month. Now, he was moving out immediately.

He asked the landlord to come over to check if there was any damage in the room so that he wouldn’t argue with him in the future.

As for the rent for the remaining twenty days, he didn’t need it.

When Xiao Wen came back, the landlord was checking the room to see if there was any damage.

He found a problem here and another problem there. There were quite a lot of problems.

Some of the problems had been there from the beginning, but Liu Qing was inexperienced in renting a house for the first time. He did not point them out to the landlord in time, and now he was the one to blame.

If it was yesterday, he would have nagged and nagged.

Today, he already had a huge sum of 100 million yuan. He couldn’t be bothered to care about it. Wasn’t he just asking him to pay up? Then he would just compensate. He didn’t have much money anyway.

Xiao Wen came over and heard him. She got angry and said,

"Boss, you can’t bully an honest person like this! The things you have are obviously broken for a long time. Don’t you know that in your heart? If he wanted to extort money, he couldn’t be so heartless, right?"

The landlord looked at her and was very unhappy. Why are you interrupting?"

" He’s a friend of mine," Liu Qing said. He then turned to Xiao Wen and said," Forget it. I didn’t pay attention when I rented the house. I’ll admit it. It’s not a big deal. I’ll settle it as I see fit.""

The landlord was satisfied and continued to look for problems in the room.

There were no major problems, only some minor ones.

The glass was cracked, the door frame was deformed, and the floor was scratched.

It wasn’t much money, but it was a little disgusting.

The main reason was that he didn’t want to refund the deposit.

Xiao Wen was stopped by Liu Qing. She knew that he didn’t care about the money now, so she didn’t bother to say anything.

"You won’t bring the appliances and furniture you bought here, right?"

Liu Qing laughed,"It’s not like the game is a good one. Why would I bring it over?" Just throw it away."

The landlord’s eyes lit up and he quickly smiled."It’s quite tiring to throw these things. Why don’t I help you? Just give me 50 yuan as a labor fee."

However, he was thinking of keeping these things and then raising the rent by advertising them to move in.

If he used it, he would use it himself.

If he had not been so calculative, Liu Qing would have agreed.

At first, Liu Qing did have such an idea. There were better things in the house he was living in now. It was useless to take them over. They would also take up space. He might as well give them to the landlord.

But now, the landlord was disgusted by him. He shook his head and said,"There’s no need for that. I’ll find two environmental workers and ask them to help me throw these things away."

The landlord smiled awkwardly, feeling that it was a pity.

He thought to himself, If you had said earlier that you didn’t want these things, I wouldn’t have minded so much."

He wasn’t a real landlord, but a second landlord. His income wasn’t very high, so of course, he would deduct every point he could.

"Let me handle this.""

He took out his phone and dialed a number." 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖

"Old Li, are you free now? I have some electrical appliances and furniture here that I want to sell to you. They’re all quite useful. Come and see how much they’re worth."

When Liu Qing heard her call him, he knew who he was calling.

It was a waste collector with the surname Li. He often went to Jiayi Community to collect waste. He was also a frequent visitor on his visitor’s register. He even remembered his ID number very clearly.

These furniture and electrical appliances could be sold for a few dollars in his hands.

While waiting for Old Li to come over, Liu Qing asked Xiao Wen to pack up her things. She would take away the useful ones and throw away the useless ones.

The main thing was the clothes.

This girl didn’t use cosmetics, let alone skincare products, because she didn’t have money.

When Old Li brought someone over, Xiao Wen had already packed up and stuffed everything into her suitcase.

In the past few years, Liu Qing had also bought some electrical appliances, such as a television, refrigerator, washing machine, and air conditioner.

The furniture was a bed, two sofas, and a wardrobe.

That wasn’t worth much.

These things could not be sold at a high price to scrap collectors, but they did not have time to wait. It was better than spending money to get someone to throw them away.

After a while, the room became empty.

After the house was emptied, the landlord added up all the damage and the cleaning fees, and he was left with a total of more than 700 yuan. He deducted it from the deposit and even gave him a refund.

Old Li also gave Liu Qing a few hundred yuan for the furniture and electrical appliances.

The landlady provided the internet and cable TV, so he didn’t have to go to another place to settle it himself. He could just leave.

It was past eight o’clock when the two of them dragged a suitcase downstairs.

At this moment, Xiao Wen was still wearing the security uniform.

Liu Qing took a few steps with his suitcase and looked back at the fourth floor. The lights in the room were still on. The landlord was probably cleaning.

She had lived with Huo Zhenzhen for a few years and had too many memories.

After Huo Zhenzhen left, when Liu Qing lived alone, he often couldn’t help but think about the past.

Now that she had returned to that house, she would not move in again.

The traces of their lives would be covered by the traces of other people’s lives, and they would no longer exist in this world.

He suddenly felt a little emotional and then smiled.

It was pretty good.

They first took a taxi back to Hongjing Garden. Xiao Wen changed her clothes and then went out to eat.

After such a long time, Xiaowen’s stomach was empty again, so she ate some meat with Liu Qing.

They went to a wooden house near the neighborhood to have a barbecue. They didn’t spend much, only about 200 yuan.

This amount of money was not even a drop in the bucket for Liu Qing.

When the barbeque was served, he was not even interested in taking photos.

In the future, if it wasn’t a table of food worth tens of thousands, don’t even think about seducing him to take photos.

He had long escaped that level.

However, in Xiao Wen’s opinion, the food was still a little expensive.

She felt that she could cook better if she spent a few dozen yuan.

When she returned, she said to Liu Qing,""Brother Qing, it’s a little wasteful to eat outside, and it’s not very healthy. Why don’t we cook ourselves in the future?"

Liu Qing looked at her suspiciously."

Xiao Wen rolled her eyes at him." What a joke. I’ve been cooking at home since I was ten years old. I’ve honed my skills." The food I cook is not only edible, it’s simply too edible!"

"You don’t have any objections to cooking alone and clearing the dishes?"Liu Qing asked tentatively.

"I have no objections if you pay for my living expenses." Xiao Wen said.

" Alright." Liu Qing immediately decided." Let’s try it out for a day and see if your cooking is edible." I’ll be like this after I can eat."

It was not that he did not know how to cook, but it had been a long time since he had cooked.

Sometimes, she was a little interested in cooking. She would cook something she liked.

However, when he thought about cleaning up the dishes, he felt that it was too boring.

It was better to spend more money to eat outside.

Now that someone was willing to cook for him and take on the responsibility of cleaning up the dishes, there was naturally no problem.

Xiao Wen took the initiative to make this request because she felt that she had taken too much advantage of Liu Qing. She was a little embarrassed and had to find something to make it up to him.

Who told him not to sleep with her?

If he was unwilling to devote his life to her, then wouldn’t he have to work like a cow?
