Infinite Cafetaria Chapter 94

Chapter 94 Signing the Contract

As the light in the room dimmed again, the girl removed her palms from her eyes and said as feebly as if she was half dead, "Don't, don't... close the curtains again."

"Okay." Malu took a few steps back from the window, "What do you call it?"

“Zhen Ye.”

“Really wild? You don't look wild at all.”

Zhen Ye didn't know how to answer the call, so he could only stand there awkwardly.

“Ms. Chen and Mr. Zhou are yours...”

“You are not yet 18, are they your parents?” Malu raised his eyebrows.

“No, no, it's my aunt and uncle. I celebrated my 18th birthday last month, with my friends.”

“Do you have any friends?”

“Hmm, um, let's… form a team together to clear the book.”

“Oh, my online friends.”

Compared to ordinary people, Zhen Ye's reaction is a bit slow. After Ma Lu asks a question, she usually has to pause for two or three seconds before answering, and her speech is not very fluent.

She seemed to realize that this kind of communication was too inefficient, so she said, "Do you have QQ? How about we... chat on QQ?"

“I'd be fine with that if you feel more comfortable that way.”

Ma Lu took out his mobile phone and added Zhen Ye's QQ. Her QQ was called My Neighbor Totoro on the Second Floor.

Once he switched to online Zhenye, he felt a lot more relaxed. His typing speed was even faster than that of ordinary people, and there was no longer the sluggish feeling and strange sentence interruptions when speaking.

　　It's a bit strange that two people are still typing to communicate even though they are under the same roof.

—Do you want to rent a house?

—Yes, let me confirm first that you are the owner of this shop?

—Yes, my parents bought this two-story building when I was three years old. My name is written on the property certificate. The first floor was originally a supermarket, and our family lived on the second floor.

—I see, can I ask why your aunt and uncle became your guardians?

—Five years ago, my parents drove to another place to purchase goods. As a result, a traffic accident occurred. The driver of a large coal truck fell asleep while driving and rolled over. Their van was just hit.

—I'm sorry for causing you sadness, but then you were alone?

—Well, I continued to live here after taking a leave of absence from school. My aunt and uncle helped me rent out the first floor. The rent was just enough for my daily expenses.

Zhen Ye paused and typed again.

—Actually, if you want to rent a house, just ask my aunt and uncle. I'm not very good at dealing with other people, so they are responsible for this kind of thing.

Before Ma Lu could answer, Zhen Ye's QQ on the other side beeped again.

She glanced at the new news, scratched her head, and typed something to Malu.

—My aunt said she has rented out the first floor.

—Leasing it to the owner of the chess and card room, didn't you stop it?

—She said that the economy has been in recession recently, and the previous hot pot restaurant owner has reduced the rent and stopped renting. Only this chess and card shop owner is willing to take over, and he is willing to pay 500 yuan more.

“Can I take the liberty of asking, how much rent did you receive each month?”

Ma Lu suddenly spoke.

“Uh…” Zhen Ye thought for a while and typed,

—4500.

“I can give you 10,000 yuan,” Ma Lu said.

"How many?"

Zhen Ye trembled and breathed heavily.

“Ten thousand, I can also cover you with two meals.”

Ma Lu continued, "It's just a staff meal, not a formal meal that is sold. Of course, even staff meals will be much more delicious than the takeaways you usually order."

Zhen Ye seemed a little unable to believe his ears. —Why are you so nice to me?

"It's not that I'm nice to you. If you rent here normally, the rent will only be higher." Ma Lu said, "If you are willing to take the time to put the rental information out yourself, you should be able to find a tenant with a higher price than me."

Zhen Ye shook his head and continued typing.

—I don't want to deal with people. Dealing with people is too scary. Two strangers kept knocking on my door last night.

After a pause, she continued typing.

—Is the ten thousand yuan you said true?

"It's true." Ma Lu said, "If you want, we can sign the contract now."

While the two were talking, the doorbell suddenly rang in their ears.

After hearing this, Zhen Ye ran to the window, pulled up the corner of the curtain and took a quick look outside. Then he immediately retracted his neck and said in horror.

“Yes, it's my... aunt.”

"She should also come to you to sign a contract." Ma Lu said.

Zhen Ye could not help but hesitate again after hearing this.

Ma Lu didn't rush him, just stood aside and waited quietly.

Zhen Ye was just autistic and not stupid. At this time, he also knew that he had been deceived by his aunt and uncle, and a lot of the previous rent was probably withheld.

But she didn't want to break up with her aunt, not because she couldn't let go of this family relationship. After all, her aunt and uncle didn't visit her a few times after her parents died, and they only came to see her when she needed to sign.

Zhenye herself is actually very satisfied with the frequency of communication. In contrast, she is more afraid that relatives who are always shushing and warm and come to visit every three days will make her even more uncomfortable.

Of course, it makes no difference whether there is such a relationship or not. Zhen Ye is mainly afraid of trouble.

She knew that given her aunt's personality, she would not be willing to lose such a large amount of income, and she might come to her every now and then, crying and acting up.

She is not good at dealing with this kind of thing. Just thinking about that scene is enough to make Zhen Ye suffocate. It is not impossible to pay some money in order not to be disturbed.

But there is no way, Malu gave too much.

Ten thousand yuan has more than doubled from before, which means she can spend more money in the game, buy better equipment, and challenge stronger bosses.

The doorbell kept ringing, like some kind of silent urging, and her QQ also beeped again.

Zhen Ye lowered his head and glanced at the new message before typing.

—My aunt said that the rental of the first floor has been negotiated, the two parties have reached an agreement, and the property certificate has been copied.

—It's useless, you are the homeowner, and it's useless for them to reach an agreement without your consent.

—But they are my guardians.

—Didn't you turn 18 last month? You have full civil capacity and no guardian.

Zhen Ye swallowed.

—Then, let's sign a contract. Do you have a contract?

Ma Lu nodded, "Before I came here, I found a standard template online. I just need to fill in the key information in the blank spaces and check it again. If there is no problem, I can sign."

As he spoke, he took out a document from the backpack behind him.

Zhenye just took it and turned it over, not bothering to look carefully. He moved the two outer boxes on the coffee table to the ground and lay there and started filling them.

Seeing this, Ma Lu reminded him again.

“Sign for three years first, deposit one and pay three, and the first month's rent is free, which can be used to apply for certificates and decoration, and then if the lease is renewed, I will have priority at the same rent. Can you accept these conditions?”

Zhenye nodded, "Okay."

“Very good, then sign it.”
