Urban Life: I Became Jiang Nansun's Landlord

She's still in high school, so there are many things she can't say.

Before long, when she goes to university, she'll be able to say some things.

Just as Deng Xiaoqi was lost in thought, Lin Miaomiao nudged her.

"Hey, Xiaoqi, what are you grinning about? Jiahe is calling you," Lin Miaomiao said.

"Uh-huh."

Deng Xiaoqi walked towards Peng Jiahe with a smile.

If she can be with Yi Ge, she must thank Jia He.

What she did was indeed a bit unethical, but... it's hard for her not to be tempted by such an outstanding man in her world.

I'm so sorry to Jiahe.

I will definitely make it up to her in the future.

Chapter 272 Deng Xiaoqi's Confession (Please Subscribe)

Deng Xiaoqi couldn't voice her little thoughts, so she kept them to herself.

After Deng Xiaoqi and Lin Miaomiao entered the classroom, Peng Jiahe, completely unaware of what had happened, approached them with a smile.

"Xiaoqi, Miaomiao, I was wondering if your daydreaming in class was related to my outing?"

Peng Jiahe said with a smile, "You two, I have to say something to you. Your most important task right now is to study."

"After you graduate from high school, just tell me where you want to go, and I'll arrange it. We'll have a blast, as long as you want!"

Peng Jiahe said with a smile, "Did you two hear what I said?"

"We heard you," Deng Xiaoqi and Lin Miaomiao said, looking embarrassed.

"That's more like it, study hard," Peng Jiahe said, patting them gently on the shoulders.

Lin Miaomiao and Deng Xiaoqi returned to their seats.

Lin Miaomiao looked at Peng Jiahe, who was sleeping on her stomach, with envy.

Lin Miaomiao said, "Xiaoqi, among all of our graduating class, Jiahe is the most comfortable, right?"

“Yeah.” Deng Xiaoqi nodded and said, “She says she’s starting classes every day, but she’s really just here to kill time. As for everything else, Jiahe doesn’t need to worry about anything.”

Honestly, Jiahe looks so good that countless people envy her.

Lin Miaomiao asked, "Will Jiahe go to university? Or rather, is she able to go to university?"

“Yes, of course. Jiahe can’t go for academic subjects. She’s going for the path of being a sports specialist, or like me, she’s going to apply to a media college,” Deng Xiaoqi said.

"Will it work? You know, she hasn't learned anything about it." Lin Miaomiao was very curious.

Deng Xiaoqi said with a smile, "Her brother is Lin Yi."

"What do you mean?" Lin Miaomiao was still a little confused.

“What I mean is, what seems important to you is nothing to others,” Deng Xiaoqi said. “Good media schools are probably hard to get into, but with so many universities in our country, it would be a piece of cake for Lin Yi to let Jiahe get into any one of them.”

Jiahe doesn't need to worry about anything, doesn't need to learn anything, all she needs to do is provide a person.

Lin Miaomiao felt even more envious as she listened.

"This is simply the pinnacle of life! You don't have to learn anything, you just need to bring someone along, and you still have a school to attend?" Lin Miaomiao couldn't help but say.

“Don’t feel resentful, because her brother is Lin Yi,” Deng Xiaoqi said.

“But…isn’t this too unfair to some students?” Lin Miaomiao said.

"Fairness? The essence of this world is unfair, so where does absolute fairness come from?" Deng Xiaoqi said dismissively.

Talk about fairness?

Lin Miaomiao is clearly a simple-minded girl.

Having seen and experienced so much, she understands all too well that there is no such thing as fairness in this world.

Sometimes, fairness is a joke.

Deng Xiaoqi thought for a moment and said, "If there is any fairness left, it is the college entrance examination."

The National College Entrance Examination (Gaokao) is the fairest thing in our country.

Once you leave school and enter society, you'll realize that life is full of unfairness.

You think you're capable, but so what? The one who steals your credit could very well be the manager's brother-in-law… Cases like this are countless!

"Stop—don't say anymore, this world is really too scary." Lin Miaomiao was startled when she heard this.

"Are you scared already?" Deng Xiaoqi smiled.

“Isn’t this scary enough? I come from an ordinary family and have absolutely no advantages,” Lin Miaomiao said.

"It's good that you know this, then you should study even harder. At the very least, when you want to do something in the future, you can't let your education hold you back," Deng Xiaoqi said.

“Yes, Xiaoqi, you’re right,” Lin Miaomiao said.

Looking at Lin Miaomiao, Deng Xiaoqi suddenly felt a little envious of her.

Lin Miaomiao is very innocent. Perhaps because of her family background, she has never lived such a carefree life.

A faint sadness lingered in her heart.

And so, the three good friends spent another day studying.

Everyone said goodbye and left.

Everyone goes back to their homes.

Before leaving, Deng Xiaoqi called out to Lin Miaomiao.

Lin Miaomiao asked, "Xiaoqi, is there anything else? My mom is probably already at home waiting for me to eat."

If I'm even five minutes late getting back, she'll bombard me with questions.

Deng Xiaoqi said with a smile, "Today, we're discussing whether the world is fair."

"Miaomiao, what I really want to tell you is that the essence of this world is a cannibalistic society."

"It sounds cruel, but that's the truth."

Lin Miaomiao didn't take it seriously and said with a smile, "I know, Xiaoqi. No matter how cruel it is, it will have to wait until after I graduate from university."

"That's all, I'm going back to eat."

Deng Xiaoqi smiled.

Why is she so determined to pursue Lin Yi?

It wasn't because he was exceptionally handsome, but because Lin Yi was the most outstanding man she knew.

She probably won't find a boyfriend this outstanding in the future.

When Deng Xiaoqi returned home, she was surprised to find that her usually busy mother had actually prepared a meal at home.

Of course, it wasn't her mother who made it; it was the housekeeper.

Her mother, dressed elegantly and looking every bit the strong, capable woman, was at work.

I only stopped working after I saw Deng Xiaoqi go home.

Deng Xiaoqi asked, "Mom, what are you doing at home?"

"You have exams coming up, so I came back to keep you company," Deng Xiaoqi's mother said with a smile. 933

"Thank you, Mom," Deng Xiaoqi said happily.

"Silly child, why are you being so polite with your mother?" Deng Xiaoqi's mother said with a smile. "Wash your hands and come eat."

"Uh-huh."

The mother and daughter had a happy dinner together.

Deng Xiaoqi looked at her mother, seemingly wanting to say something but holding back.

Deng Xiaoqi's mother asked with a smile, "What's wrong? Just say what you want to say, why are you being so polite with your mother?"

Deng Xiaoqi said, "Mom, I want to audition for Magic Theatre."

"Hmm? Shanghai Academy of Drama? Isn't the Central Academy of Drama the one you've always wanted to apply to?" Deng Xiaoqi's mother asked.

"..." Deng Xiaoqi didn't know what to say.

Deng Xiaoqi's mother said, "Xiaoqi, because of work, I don't spend much time with you, but I still understand your personality very well."

The Central Academy of Drama is good, but the Magic Theatre is not bad either.

So if you have any thoughts, just tell Mom, and Mom will listen to your opinion.

Deng Xiaoqi looked at her mother and said shyly, "Mom, I think that going to university in Shanghai would allow me to... to get closer to Lin Yi."

After saying that, Deng Xiaoqi's face turned completely red.

"Ok?"

Deng Xiaoqi's mother was somewhat surprised that her daughter's reason for wanting to stay in Shanghai was actually this.

Chapter 273 Lin Miaomiao's Curiosity (Please Subscribe)

Deng Xiaoqi's mother looked at her daughter, her eyes filled with an indescribable feeling.

There was joy, and there was disappointment.

To her delight, Xiaoqi, whom she had always thought was still a little girl, had clearly become sensible.

What's disheartening is that my daughter is only a teenager, and she's already thinking about all this?

However, this is ultimately the daughter's own decision, and as parents, we should support her.

Because the girl wants to pursue Lin Yi.

Lin Yi has recently become quite famous in Shanghai.

Moreover, as time went on, his fame grew, and perhaps not everyone in the country knew Lin Yi.
