“How much is the rent?”

He couldn’t be bothered to explain himself to her, and he simply wanted to get rid of her. This morning, there were three crucial meetings, and he had canceled all of them, causing him tens of millions in loss. At the thought of this, the frown on his face deepened.

In contrast, the middle-aged woman broke into a smile. “That should be the way. This is how a man should be.”

Then, she took out a calculator and muttered, “2,500 a month makes it 15,000 for six months.”

“We’ll rent it for a year,” the man spat coldly, and the woman’s eyes sparkled.

“That’s a good relationship you have with her. If you pay rent for a year, that saves me a lot of trips from coming here, too.”
