“Congratulations, Host, for obtaining the Intermediate Driving Skill Card.”
The pattern on the card was a steering wheel, but what use was it? She didn’t have a car, and besides, she already had a driver’s license.
“Damn, did I just waste 1 million?”
“Host, you shouldn’t put it that way. Isn’t intermediate driving skill better than your road-killer level?”
Su Tian: “…”
“I don’t have a car.”
“Host, you will have one in the future.”
Su Tian rolled her eyes. How far in the future was that?

Now that all her stats were maxed out, there was nothing left to improve. Apart from drawing cards, it was all about drawing cards and making money.
Thinking about viewing the apartment tomorrow, Su Tian went to bed early.
Early the next morning, Su Tian ate the simple breakfast she had made and called the real estate agent.
“Hello, I’d like to view apartment 601 in Building 6 of Lin Yuan Community.”
“Today? Or when?”
“Today.”
“Sure, ma’am. What time would you like to view it today?”
“Is now okay?”
“Yes, I’ll wait for you at the entrance of the community.”
“Alright, I’ll head over now.”
After finishing breakfast, Su Tian put on a mask and left. She first opened the door to check that no one was around before stepping out.
Taking a taxi to Lin Yuan Community, Su Tian saw a woman in professional attire standing at the entrance. Passing vehicles would glance her way—she seemed to be waiting for someone.
Su Tian walked over. Xiao Wen sized up Su Tian as she approached—her figure was truly impressive.
“Hello, I made an appointment to view the apartment. My surname is Su.”
“Hello, you can call me Xiao Wen. I’ll take you inside to see the apartment now.”
“Okay.”
The two walked along the community’s meticulously trimmed green pathways.
“What does Ms. Su do for a living?”
“Is there a professional background check for renting?”
“Yes, this community is very strict with tenants.”
“I do live streaming.”
“Then Ms. Su can rest assured—the soundproofing here is excellent.”
Soon, they arrived at apartment 601 in Building 6. Xiao Wen took out the key and opened the door.
“It’s a 180-square-meter large flat with three bedrooms and two living rooms, all newly renovated. Ms. Su, please see if you’re satisfied.”
Su Tian examined the layout—it was very reasonable and even had a large balcony. She liked it a lot.
“I’m very satisfied with this place.”
Seeing that Su Yun was pleased, Xiao Wen continued, “We emphasized online why this apartment is being rented at a low price. The owner wants to sell it, so if the apartment is sold, Ms. Su may have to move out immediately. Of course, we will compensate you with one month’s rent accordingly. Is that acceptable to you?”
She was in a hurry to move and didn’t have many options. Besides, this was a high-end community with excellent security and privacy measures. The monthly rent was only 20,000, while the normal price would be 30,000 to 40,000 per month.
Houses in upscale residential complexes usually don’t sell that quickly. Even if it does sell, she would still get one month’s rent as compensation, which is quite a good deal. She doesn’t have much luggage, so moving wouldn’t be troublesome either.
“Alright.”
“The rent is one month’s deposit plus one month’s rent upfront. Once the contract is signed, Miss Su can move in. Before this place was rented out, someone came every week to clean, so it’s very tidy.”
“Okay.”
“Let’s go downstairs to sign the contract then.”
Su Tian went with Xiao Wen to the agency to sign the contract. Afterward, Xiao Wen took Su Tian to the property management office of the complex to register her information and collect the access card and keys.
By the time everything was done, it was already noon. Xiao Wen noticed she was sweating, while Su Tian still looked fresh and cool. She couldn’t help but wonder if summer was especially lenient toward beautiful women.
“Everything is settled now, Miss Su. You can move in anytime. Just transfer the rent on time each month to the bank account number I gave you.”
“I’ll move in this afternoon.”
“Do you need me to arrange someone to clean the place for you?”
“Yes, thank you. Sorry for the trouble.”
“No trouble at all. It’ll be done before noon.”
“Thank you.”
After Xiao Wen left, Su Tian took a taxi back to her old rental place.
As soon as she opened the door, the male half of the young couple next door came out.
“Oh, you’re back. There’s been takeout delivery people knocking on your door all day today. I thought you were home.”
Su Tian’s eyes darkened slightly. “They probably got the wrong address. I’m moving out today.”
“Oh, really? Where are you moving to?”
Su Tian frowned slightly and simply said, “Not around here anymore. I have things to take care of.” She went inside, locked the door behind her, and took one last look at the apartment she had rented for three years. It was time to say goodbye.
Aside from some computer equipment, she really didn’t have much to take. Her clothes were all old, and moving to a new place definitely called for buying new ones.
After packing two sets of clothes and her computer equipment, Su Tian contacted her landlord to return the apartment.
“Just take a photo and send it to me.”
Following the landlady’s request, Su Tian recorded a video of the apartment and sent it to her.
After watching the video, the landlady said, “Just take your own belongings with you. I’ll refund the deposit. Leave the key in the door, and I’ll send someone to clean this afternoon.”
After sending this message, the landlady promptly refunded the deposit.
Su Tian couldn’t help but think how reasonable this landlady was. If only the neighborhood environment and security were better.
Su Tian left the building carrying her bags. As she was leaving, she passed by another delivery person.
The delivery uniform was worn carelessly, and he reeked of cigarette smoke, giving off a sloppy vibe.
Su Tian had a gut feeling he was looking for her. Instead of taking the elevator, she quickly headed for the stairs.
The delivery person arrived at Su Tian’s former apartment and knocked, but no one answered.
“Xiao Qiang, are you sure you’re not lying to us? We’ve been knocking, and no one’s answering.”
“Impossible. I saw her with my own eyes last night and even delivered food to her. She smelled incredibly good.”
“But no one’s answering the door.”
“Maybe she went out?”
“I see a key in the door.”
“Let’s go in and check.”
Just as the delivery person was about to turn the key, the male half of the young couple next door, annoyed by the knocking, opened his door and said sharply, “No one lives in that apartment anymore. They moved out. Stop knocking.”
The delivery person stopped what he was doing, his expression complicated. “Sorry, I got the wrong address.”
The young man in the couple watched the delivery person’s retreating figure, his eyes venomous, and muttered under his breath, “It’s always these damn delivery guys ruining things for him.”
