False Court

Chapter 378 Boiling

He hurriedly took out his phone and snapped a photo of Lin Zinuo, then posted it in the loving community group.

"Holy crap, the sky is falling! The landlord actually brought a girl home!"

"Oh my god! Really? When did the landlord figure things out?"

"What does she look like? Pretty?"

"Oh dear, my granddaughter has no chance."

"Alright, Wang Dama, with the way your granddaughter looks, there's no way the landlord would be interested!"

.......

Whoosh~

Instantly, the entire group exploded. The screen refreshed as if the system was updating, and the entire old district was in an uproar.

Lin Zinuo went downstairs and walked out of the old building, looking around for a breakfast shop.

She saw a group of old men and women wandering around.

Swish, swish~

All eyes turned to her.

Lin Zinuo was confused. What's going on? Why are these people staring at me?

Could it be that they're hostile to outsiders because I'm a new face?

Never mind, Lin Zinuo saw a steamed bun shop and walked over.

"Give me five meat buns and two bags of soy milk."

"Huh?"

The bun shop owner stared blankly at Lin Zinuo before snapping back to attention.

"I want five meat buns and two bags of soy milk."

Lin Zinuo was also baffled. Was her voice too soft? Did she not understand?

"Okay, okay, I'll pack them for you."

The owner quickly packed the buns for Lin Zinuo and handed them to her.

"How much?"

Lin Zinuo took the buns and soy milk and asked.

"No money, no money."

The owner replied with a smile.

"Huh? How can it be free? How much is it?"

Lin Zinuo was dumbfounded by the owner's words. What's going on? Buying things for free?

"Really, it's not needed. Aren't you Su Mo's friend?"

"Yes, I am. Are you?"

Lin Zinuo immediately realized.

The owner was even more excited after hearing confirmation. She looked Lin Zinuo up and down and said, "You're really pretty. Really, no money. You can go."

She even pushed Lin Zinuo away.

Lin Zinuo came out looking utterly confused and bewildered.

She turned and walked into the convenience store next door, saying, "Boss, give me two bottles of soda."

"Okay."

An uncle greeted her warmly.

"How much?"

"What money? No need for money."

"That won't do."

"Aiya, what money? Really no need. Is there anything else you want? Just say it, and I'll get it for you..."

As he spoke, the uncle didn't forget to grab some of the more expensive drinks and stuff them into the bag.

"No need, really no need."

"What do you mean no need? You're the landlord's friend, so you're our friend..."

Lin Zinuo was stunned. She had never seen such enthusiasm...

Inside the house, Su Mo got out of bed with a yawn. He called out into the room,

"Lin Zinuo."

But there was no response in the house. Su Mo was puzzled.

"She's not still sleeping, is she?"

Thinking this, Su Mo walked to the door of the spare bedroom, only to find the door open and the room empty.

"Strange, where did she go so early?"

Knock, knock!

At this moment, there was a knock on the door.

Su Mo walked over and opened the door, only to see Lin Zinuo standing at the door carrying a pile of things: breakfast, drinks, and fruit.

"Why did you go out to buy things so early? And so much? You don't have to be so polite."

Su Mo replied in surprise.

Lin Zinuo walked in with the things, staring intently at Su Mo with a serious expression, making Su Mo feel a little uneasy.

"Why are you looking at me like that? What happened?"

Su Mo was speechless.

"Su Mo, tell me honestly, are you hiding something from me? Why are those people outside so nice to you? I don't even have to pay for anything I buy."

Lin Zinuo looked at Su Mo suspiciously.

"Well, these are all neighbors, and we have a good relationship."

"Then why do some of them call you landlord?"

Lin Zinuo looked unconvinced. It would be one thing if one or two people had a good relationship with him, but everywhere she went, everyone was so enthusiastic that it made her skin crawl.

"Ahem, I actually have some spare houses that I rent to them."

"That's no reason for them to be so enthusiastic."

Lin Zinuo became even more suspicious.

Su Mo took a deep breath, thinking that since things had come to this, he wouldn't hide it from Lin Zinuo anymore. He said very seriously,

"Actually, they're all my tenants. I charge very low rent, so they're very nice to you."

When Lin Zinuo heard this, her face was full of disbelief. "You're their landlord? Then how many houses do you have? One, two, three..."

She counted on her fingers. The more people she encountered along the way who enthusiastically gave her things, the more surprised she became.

"You must have dozens of houses."

Su Mo coughed and said helplessly, "It's not dozens of houses. The houses in the entire old district are mine."

After hearing Su Mo's words, Lin Zinuo was struck by lightning, her head buzzing. She looked at Su Mo in disbelief and stammered,

"You, you're not kidding, are you?"

"I'm not kidding."

Su Mo replied solemnly.

"Then, then aren't you even richer than Sister Xue?"

Lin Zinuo felt that her worldview was about to collapse. She had always worried that Su Mo would starve to death. But this guy was actually a hidden tycoon. Even though this was the old district of Shanghai, the land price here was no less than that of Beijing.

How much money would such a large area be worth?

"I can't say that, but it shouldn't be too far off."

Su Mo said modestly. How could he say that he was actually richer than Qian Chengxue's father? What were these properties? His greatest wealth was the Gold Points and Silver Points in his hand, which were truly colossal assets that could rival a country.

Lin Zinuo suddenly felt inexplicably annoyed and punched Su Mo hard in the chest.

"You have so much money, and you still lied to me, making me worry about you for nothing."

"I didn't lie to you."

Su Mo was dumbfounded.

"You lied to me about everything. You're a liar."

Lin Zinuo was so angry that her teeth itched. The key was that she couldn't find an excuse to deal with Su Mo. It seemed that this guy had never said whether he was rich or not, but the thought of Su Mo not telling her he was rich, making her jump around like a clown in front of him, made her angry.

"I really didn't lie to you. I can't just tell people out of the blue how rich I am, can I?"

"Hmph, you can forget about me paying you back the 100,000 you lent me."

Lin Zinuo replied resentfully.

"I never planned on having you pay it back anyway..."

Su Mo replied casually.

Lin Zinuo took a few deep breaths to calm her shock, and then asked, "Since you're so rich, what could you possibly be facing that made you resign so urgently?"

"Demolition. This area is going to be demolished to build an interstellar airport."

Su Mo replied with some headache.

"Oh, so this place is going to be used to build an interstellar airport."

Lin Zinuo said with some surprise.

"You know about this?"

Su Mo asked curiously.

"I only found out recently. Our country is going to build a total of five interstellar airports, one of which is in Beijing. Beijing is also being demolished recently. That area is not easy to demolish, and people are already going crazy. Wait, if this area is all yours, then how much compensation will you get from the demolition?"

Lin Zinuo came back to her senses, looking at Su Mo differently, feeling that his whole body exuded the smell of money.

Su Mo coughed and said, "It hasn't been negotiated yet, but it should be soon. The money doesn't matter, I don't really care."

Hearing Su Mo's words, Lin Zinuo reflexively frowned and reminded Su Mo,

"Su Mo, don't be an idiot again. This is a huge amount of money. Don't be so impulsive and give it up. You have to think about your future!"
