Chapter 68: Chapter 063 The Power of the Eloquent Tongue "I mean no harm," Lin Fan explained. He didn’t want the other person to commit suicide due to a misunderstanding. Life was precious, accidental deaths were unavoidable, but killing oneself was truly tragic. "My name is Lin Fan, a real estate salesman from Xinfeng Real Estate. I was passing by and saw a distress signal written on your window, so I came to check on you," "As for the door, I’m really sorry about that. I knocked and didn’t get a response, so I thought something might have happened to you inside, and I had to do this." He felt he had made himself very clear. Anyone capable of rational thought would understand what he was saying. Indeed. Yan Nini was enveloped in fear, quite frightened, but she was still able to think. Real Estate? Distress signal? Trouble? Her mind was still blank, and at the same time, she was sizing up Lin Fan. He did appear harmless enough, but in this apocalypse, it was difficult for her to trust anyone. Moreover, punching through a security door with one’s fist—was that really something a human could do? Seeing the slight changes in her eyes, Lin Fan knew that continuing the conversation might help her to trust him. He had seen too much betrayal and horror in the apocalypse and could understand her thoughts. In the past, anyone would be cautious around strangers. Let alone during an apocalypse. "I swear to heaven, I really just came to check on you, and incidentally to sell some housing. It seems like your living conditions aren’t great. Have you considered moving somewhere else? If you’re interested, I recommend Sunshine District. It’s an old district, but under my management, it’s quiet, clean, safe, and the tenants are elites from various professions," "There are doctors, teachers, honorably-decorated soldiers, retired military engineers, and internet repair technicians." "There’s complete gym equipment downstairs, and fields that I personally develop." "What’s more... it is affordably priced." As Lin Fan explained all this, he noticed a significant change in her facial expression, shifting from fear to astonishment. This was a good sign. It meant that under the onslaught of his gift of the gab, she was relaxing her guard, slowly accepting his presence. He continued speaking while walking towards the dazed Yan Nini. "I can understand your fear with the apocalypse upon us. For a beautiful girl like you, it must be hard to face the current harsh environment. But there’s genuine kindness in the world, and we should strive to walk towards the light..." "Come on, put down the knife." Lin Fan took the knife, gently taking it from Yan Nini’s hand, then pulled out a flyer and placed it in front of her. "Take a look at the flyer, maybe you’ll be interested." Yan Nini looked at the flyer with astonishment, experiencing a sense of absurdity, and finally, after Lin Fan’s efforts, she spoke. "Who... who exactly are you?" Lin Fan smiled, "I’ve already told you, my name is Lin Fan, an employee at Xinfeng Real Estate, specializing in selling houses. If you’re not satisfied with your current living environment, you could consider moving to Sunshine District." "Come, sit down, I’ll give you a good introduction." His voice was gentle as he guided Yan Nini to the sofa to sit down, then he pulled out a form that listed the available rentals and prices at Sunshine District. He placed the form on the coffee table, pointing to the content. "Look at this layout, room 504 in building 1, two bedrooms and a living room, sixty square meters, the rent is about 1,500 per month, with an elevator, easy access in and out." "But I think you’re a girl, and an anchor, so you probably have lots of clothes, which is why I recommend room 703 in building 2, unit 2. This layout is a bit larger and absolutely suits you." "The tenant for this layout just had her lease expire a few days ago..." Lin Fan introduced in a soft, slow voice. Yan Nini twisted her head, staring dumbfounded at the incessant mysterious man. "You’re not sick, are you?" Lin Fan, who was in the midst of explaining, stopped talking upon hearing this, looking a bit displeased at her. "I’m kindly giving you an introduction, and you insult me. If you don’t want to rent, just say so, and I’ll leave." With that, he started to pack his things, ready to leave. "Wait, I’m sorry, I didn’t mean that, I apologize," Yan Nini quickly held onto Lin Fan. She had thought a lot just now and realized, staying here would mean certain death. She wanted to leave this place. Even though the guy before her was odd, he didn’t seem that dangerous. The door was already open. If he had had any ill intentions, he probably would have already made his move. "Alright, I accept your apology," Lin Fan sighed. Earning money was like this; one needed a good mindset—it’s hard to earn money and hard to swallow pride, "So do you need to rent a house?" "I’ll rent it, the one you mentioned." "Good, then please pack up a bit," Lin Fan said with a smile. Yan Nini asked puzzledly, "Pack up?" Lin Fan explained, "Yes, you need to move, don’t you need to take your stuff? Like some important things, and don’t forget your bank card. If you have cash, bring that too. The room you’re renting is one thousand eight a month." Happy. Hard-earned business. Finally opened for business. The agency fee is one thousand eight, split in half, the agency nine hundred, he gets nine hundred. Although half would be taken away, he knew it was only fair. After all, opening for business meant making money, even if the handsome boss wasn’t short on cash, he still bore the risks of running the store. Yan Nini really didn’t understand what was going on with him. She no longer wanted to deal with so much. She just thought about leaving. What use was money anyway? Looking at Lin Fan, she smiled bitterly, "Can we safely leave this district, the zombies outside are really scary." Lin Fan smiled confidently, "Don’t worry, I’m very good. You don’t need to worry about what we’ll encounter on the way. Go and pack up quickly, I’ll take you to register soon, oh, and don’t forget your ID card." Afterward. Yan Nini came out with her backpack. She was bewildered, her brain scrambled by Lin Fan’s words, having no clue what she was doing, just muddledly convinced by him to rent the apartment and pack her backpack. She had a thought. And that was... when I become a zombie, will I, Yan Nini, be a zombie with a backpack? "Is that everything?" Lin Fan asked when he saw her just with a backpack, thinking she had very little. "Yeah, that’s it. But there are also survivors downstairs, and they are dangerous to me. I’m afraid it might be hard for us to leave," Yan Nini said. She was really scared. When she heard there were survivors downstairs. Lin Fan was a bit excited. Thinking about opening for business again. But when he heard that they were dangerous, meaning not friendly, he lost interest. If it were anyone else speaking, he might need to verify first. But Yan Nini in front of him was a streamer, very polite, very friendly. When he had made donations before, even for something that was plainly one hundred yuan, she specifically thanked him for the gift. Others would give gifts worth thousands, and his was just a hundred. It was really incomparable. Lin Fan said, "It’s okay, I’m very capable." Still the same words. Yan Nini looked at Lin Fan foolishly. Capable? He did seem capable, even able to punch through a door. But she didn’t believe that he could punch through a security door. Meanwhile. Liu Bing was already armed with a kitchen knife, crouched and guarding, looking through the peephole at the scene outside. When he saw a shadow appear. He suddenly pushed the door open. "Yan Nini..." Liu Bing knew it would come to this. He also saw Lin Fan. But these details weren’t important to him; he just wanted Yan Nini. Then, shaking the kitchen knife in his hand, he stared intently at Lin Fan. "Kid, you’d better hand over this woman to me and then beat it, or I’ll make you regret it," he said, while brandishing the shiny knife in front of Lin Fan. With a snap. Lin Fan was quick, and he snatched the kitchen knife away, holding it in his hand. Liu Bing, caught off guard, looked on. Fuck! When had his knife been taken from him?
