Urban Life: I Became Jiang Nansun's Landlord

This time, just look at Lin Yi's reaction, and you'll know his attitude towards you.

Yang Tao was stunned when she heard this.

Yang Tao looked at Su Qing in surprise and said, "Sister, you're amazing! I didn't expect you to have such insightful words."

"That's right, I've been there too, you know," Su Qing said with a smile.

Yang Tao asked curiously, "Sister, did your husband pursue you in the same way back then?"

"No, your brother-in-law is really silly. He confessed his feelings to me right away."

"I thought this man was honest and reliable, so I agreed without much thought," Su Qing said, shaking her head.

To be honest, Yang Tao is quite envious of her sister and brother-in-law.

Her brother-in-law, Duan Xifeng, came from an average family and might not be very wealthy, but he was particularly fond of her sister.

She dotes on her sister in everything she does, which means that when she's at home, she often gets to witness their public displays of affection.

Yang Tao said, "Sister, have you called your brother-in-law while you've been here?"

“I hit him,” Su Qing said.

"How many did you hit?" Yang Tao asked casually.

“One, I took it when I first arrived in Shanghai,” Su Qing said.

"You only made one phone call? You two are usually so lovey-dovey, why did you only make one call after being away from home for so long? What's going on with you, brother-in-law?" Yang Tao couldn't help but ask.

Su Qing, who was originally in a cheerful mood, suddenly paused when she heard Taozi's words.

Lately, she's been so preoccupied with peaches that she's neglected her own situation.

Yeah, she's been in Shanghai for so long, how come Xifeng only made one phone call to her?

Thinking about it this way, Duan Xifeng's behavior has been a bit abnormal lately.

When Yang Tao saw that Su Qing had stopped, she didn't think much of it and simply asked, "Sister, what's wrong?"

"It's nothing, he's probably just been busy lately," Su Qing said.

“No matter how busy my brother-in-law is, he should at least make a phone call. He’s gone too far,” Yang Tao said.

Su Qing's heart skipped a beat; she had a bad feeling.

Su Qing and Yang Tao bought a lot of vegetables together.

To Yang Tao's surprise, her sister stopped talking much.

Back home, Yang Tao couldn't help but ask, "Sister Qing, why do you look so preoccupied? What are you thinking about?"

"It's nothing, I just feel a little unwell, like something's about to happen," Su Qing said.

Yang Tao laughed and said, "You, don't be so suspicious."

"I hope so," Su Qing nodded.

Yang Tao comforted her, "Sister Qing, don't worry. Your husband loves you so much, how could he possibly do anything to betray you?"

"Ah."

No sooner had she finished speaking than Su Qing received a phone call from her aunt, Xue Sumei.

She is also Yang Tao's mother.

"Hey, Auntie, when are you planning to come?" Su Qing asked with a smile.

"Tomorrow, I'll go tomorrow," Xue Sumei said. "Xiaoqing, have you been free lately?"

"What could possibly happen to me?" Su Qing said.

Xue Sumei asked, "Has Duan Xifeng called you recently?"

Duan Xifeng?

My aunt used to call him Xifeng.

Su Qing's bad premonition grew stronger and stronger.

Su Qing asked, "Auntie, has something happened to Xifeng?"

“What could possibly happen to him? He’s having a great time at home.” Xue Sumei said, “Xiaoqing, I’ve thought about this for a long time and I feel there are some things I need to tell you.”

“Yes, Auntie, please tell me,” Su Qing said.

"I saw Xifeng accompanying a woman shopping and eating. The two were very intimate."

"Duan Xifeng hasn't called you lately, probably because he doesn't know how to face you," Xue Sumei said.

"Auntie, what did you say? Xifeng, he..."

Upon hearing this, Su Qing was struck dumb, her face turned deathly pale, and her body went limp, almost falling off her chair.

Yang Tao was startled and quickly helped her to the sofa next to her.

Yang Tao asked, "Mom, are you sure you didn't see it wrong? My brother-in-law and sister have such a good relationship, how could he possibly cheat on me?"

Xue Sumei said, "I also thought I was mistaken, but I saw it very clearly that day."

Mom knows you've found someone, and she's especially happy, especially since the young man seems pretty good. I'll have your sister Qing go and meet him first.

I was planning to go there in a couple of days and bring some local specialties for your boyfriend, but when I was shopping, I saw Duan Xifeng.

"If it weren't for Duan Xifeng's matter, Mom would have passed away long ago."

Su Qing was pale, and Yang Tao was in no better shape.

In her mind, how could her brother-in-law, who was so good to her sister, have cheated on her?

This made Yang Tao, who had initially envied them, develop deep doubts about love.

Her sister and brother-in-law had always loved each other dearly, but Yang Tao never expected that her brother-in-law would suddenly cheat on her.

"Mom, why?" Yang Tao couldn't help but ask.

Xue Sumei said, "Duan Xifeng said that day that he was framed by someone (who had paid him), but Mom doesn't believe it. You know, flies don't land on eggs without cracks."

After hanging up the phone, Yang Tao and Su Qing were completely stunned.

Yang Tao forced herself to stay calm and comforted her, "Sister, there might be more to the story. Don't overthink it. Maybe Mom misunderstood?"

"Since Mom said so, it means she can't be wrong," Su Qing said weakly.

"Sister, please don't do this..."

Su Qing said, "Taozi, I'm a little tired. I'm going to take a nap. You cook well and entertain Xiaoyi. I can't help you anymore."

"sister……"

Yang Tao watched Qing Jie return to her room, feeling extremely distressed, wishing she could tear Duan Xifeng to pieces.

Sister Qing is so kind, how could Duan Xifeng do this?

Not long after, there was a knock on the door.

Yang Tao opened the door and found that Lin Yi had arrived.

As soon as the door opened, Lin Yi saw a beautiful, delicate face without any makeup, with a trace of tears on it.

Honestly, in terms of both looks and temperament, Yang Tao is in a league of her own among all the girls Lin Yi knows.

Therefore, when Lin Yi saw Yang Tao crying with tears streaming down her face, he felt extremely distressed.

Lin Yi said, "Peach, I admit I'm a little late this time."

"I was late because of traffic, that's my fault, but you don't have to be crying so much, do you?"

“It has nothing to do with you,” Yang Tao said.

Lin Yi took a tissue and wiped Yang Tao's tears. The more Lin Yi wiped, the harder Yang Tao cried.

"Peach, don't just cry. Tell me what happened?" Lin Yi asked.

"It has nothing to do with you," Yang Tao said, choking back tears.

Lin Yi said, "You started crying as soon as I arrived. Anyone who didn't know better would think I was bullying you."

"Lin Yi, I... I'm not in a good mood today. I'm sorry I can't entertain you," Yang Tao said.

Lin Yi shook his head and said, "That's not important. By the way, where's Sister Qing?"

“My brother-in-law cheated on me,” Yang Tao suddenly said, crying.

What happened today made Yang Tao deeply doubt the love she longed for.

Lin Yi held Yang Tao in his arms and gently patted her back.

Yang Tao's sudden crying caught Lin Yi off guard.

To be honest, strictly speaking, Yang Tao and Gu Jia have many similarities.

For example, they all have a strong longing for beautiful love.

Lin Yi didn't dislike them; on the contrary, he liked both girls very much. However, he couldn't give them his wholehearted love, so he had to suppress his feelings for them.

Lin Yi could only refrain from touching them for the time being and silently wait for an opportunity.

The opportunity Lin Yi mentioned is not waiting until they no longer yearn for love and their love has become dull and lifeless; that's too extreme.

Instead, he waits for them to have different views and opinions on relationships, so that they will no longer pursue the deep and devoted love they once longed for.

Clearly, Lin Yi has now gotten this opportunity.

Because of her brother-in-law's infidelity, Yang Tao will definitely have some doubts about the relationship.

Her loving sister and brother-in-law actually cheated on her? You can imagine how devastating that must have been for her.

Yang Tao kept thinking that if she found a boyfriend, she would definitely follow her sister and brother-in-law's example. They were so loving, and Yang Tao was very envious.

But when one day, the benchmark that her sister and brother-in-law had set for them suddenly collapsed, you can imagine how devastating it would be for her.

"Don't cry, don't cry."
