Chapter 119 - Renting a New Place
“From now on, this is the place you'll be living.”
Lin Fan opened the door to an apartment and turned to say to Meizhi and the others behind him.
In order for his own home to be a little more peaceful, and also to have some time alone with Long Yue, after careful consideration, he had decided to spend a large sum of money to rent a separate apartment just for the four of them.
As it happened, his next-door neighbor was renting out their apartment. Six thousand a month for two bedrooms and a living room—just right to accommodate the four of them.
“Is this the house Lord Demon Sovereign found for us?”
Mokui slipped past Lin Fan into the apartment, curiously looking around. She then checked out both bedrooms and decisively chose the larger master bedroom.
“Then this room is mine~!”
With that, she excitedly leaped onto the mattress and began to roll around.
“There are only two rooms. You can have this one, but you'll have to share it with Yingnü.”
Lin Fan walked into the room and said to Mokui, who was lying on the bed.
“Eh, I have to share with Yingnü…”
Hearing this, Mokui's face immediately fell with disappointment. She then stared at him with big, watery eyes, putting on a pitiful expression.
“Lord Demon Sovereign, I'm a girl. At night, I'll want a little private space. Can't you let me sleep in a room by myself?”
“No!”
Lin Fan refused coldly and without hesitation, then pointed a thumb behind him at Meizhi and Longye.
“If you don't want to share with Yingnü, then you can share with Meizhi or Longye. Take your pick.”
Mokui: “…”
Mokui frowned and glanced at Meizhi and Longye with disgust.
One is like a nagging mother hen with tons of rules, and the other is a muscle-head who only knows about cultivation and fighting. I'm better off choosing Yingnü. At least she's easier to bully...
“Then I'll just share with Yingnü…”
With that, Mokui resignedly accepted her fate. She then turned to look at Yingnü, pointed to the only desk in the room, and said in a 'boss lady' tone:
“Yingnü! This desk is mine. I need it for the computer Lord Demon Sovereign is buying me.”
“This is my gaming desk. You're not allowed to fight me for it!”
“Okay.”
Yingnü nodded obediently.
Lin Fan shot the bossy and unreasonable Mokui an irritated glance.
She only dares to bully her like this because Yingnü is so easy-going…
“Lord Demon Sovereign, is it really okay for you to specially rent this apartment for us?”
Meizhi looked around the apartment, his face full of emotion and guilt.
Since coming to this world, not only had they been useless as subordinates, but they had also been constantly causing trouble for Lord Demon Sovereign.
And now, because Lord Demon Sovereign couldn't bear to let the four of them squeeze together and sleep on the living room floor, he had specially spent money to find a new place for them.
This apartment even looks bigger than the one Lord Demon Sovereign is living in!
Lord Demon Sovereign doesn't hesitate to live in a small apartment himself, while specially giving a larger one to them. I ask you, what king in this world could have such a benevolent and kind heart!
“Lord Demon Sovereign, why don't you and Madam move into this apartment? This subordinate and the others can just live in that small one.”
“No need. This One is used to living there. This place is for the four of you.”
“This One has already paid. You all just get settled and live here with peace of mind.”
Lin Fan said, waving his hand dismissively.
During their conversation, Longye wandered into the living room, glanced around, and casually picked up a hand gripper that was sitting on a table.
“Lord Demon Sovereign, what is this?”
Longye asked, turning his head to look at Lin Fan.
“That's a hand gripper, used specifically for testing grip strength. It was probably left by the landlord. Try not to… break… it…?”
Before Lin Fan could finish his sentence, with a crack, the hand gripper in Longye's hand shattered.
Staring at the broken pieces left in his hand, Longye looked up at Lin Fan awkwardly.
“Lord Demon Sovereign, my apologies… I didn't expect this thing to be so fragile…”
The moment he heard it was for testing grip strength, he had gotten interested and applied a little force. Who would have thought that with just that tiny bit of strength, this so-called hand gripper would be crushed to pieces…
“Forget it, it's just a hand gripper. I'll just buy another one later. It's no big deal…”
Lin Fan knew Longye probably didn't do it on purpose, so he didn't say much, but only gave a stern instruction:
“But remember, this is a rented apartment! You cannot just break things in here!”
“Especially you, Longye!”
As he spoke, Lin Fan gave Longye an extra glare.
It was obvious that this was directed specifically at him.
Meizhi and the others had sealed their spiritual energy, so their remaining physical strength wasn't that great and they wouldn't cause much damage.
But Longye was different. As a member of the Yao race, and a Dragon at that, his innate physique far surpassed that of an ordinary person. He was also a body cultivator, so even without using spiritual energy to maintain his strength, he still possessed immense power far beyond that of a normal human.
If he wanted to, it probably wouldn't be difficult for him to tear down the entire building with his bare hands.
Ding-dong.
Just then, Lin Fan's phone received a notification that a delivery had arrived at the station.
“Some of the things you wanted have arrived.”
“Ooh! So fast! Does that mean my computer is here too?”
Hearing this, Mokui impatiently flashed in front of Lin Fan, her eyes full of anticipation.
Lin Fan nodded with a smile.
“Yay~!”
Mokui hopped up and down excitedly and, without looking back, proactively rushed out the door.
“Lord Demon Sovereign, I'll go get it!”
Watching her eager look, Lin Fan couldn't help but shake his head helplessly.
Back on the Immortal-Demon Continent, I never saw her get this worked up over anything... How did she suddenly turn into a gaming-addicted girl after coming here…
“Longye, come with This One and help Mokui bring everything over.”
Lin Fan waved to Longye and leisurely walked out the door, heading toward the residential complex's delivery station.
He had bought a whole set of computer parts for Mokui, plus the case and everything, which wasn't light.
And Longye had bought various pieces of gym equipment, like dumbbells, barbells, and arm trainers. Each one was heavy, and with Mokui's small frame, it would be impossible for her to carry them without using spiritual energy.
Soon, Lin Fan and Longye returned, carrying a pile of large and small packages.
Longye alone carried several large boxes on his shoulder, his steps as steady as Mount Tai as he climbed the stairs.
Mokui, in contrast, was just cradling a 5090 graphics card in her arms; she had dumped everything else onto Longye.
Rumble.
Back in the apartment, Longye steadily put down all the packages from his shoulder. The moment they landed, a slight tremor could be clearly felt through the floor.
“Everything's here. You all should go ahead and sort out your own things first.”
Lin Fan pointed at the packages on the floor, then turned, left the apartment, and quickly walked back to his own home.
Next, Meizhi and the others would be busy setting up their rooms. Without them as a disturbance, his own home would finally be free of any extra 'third wheels'!
In other words, he could finally have that long-awaited 'world for two' with the Empress again…!
