Transmigration of the Famous Cyber Star

Apologies for not posting this chapter yesterday! One of our translators had some technical difficulties. C:

Liu Man stood beside the agent’s car to wait for him. The agent quickly strode over, opened the door, and let her sit in to cool down under the air conditioner.

The agent fee would be half of the rent. The more the payment, the more money the agent would earn. The agent saw how Liu Man was bargaining the price and thought she didn’t like this place at all. He didn’t hide anything and truthfully forwarded her what Boss Wu said as part of their chatting.

He didn’t expect Liu Man to start smiling, satisfied, “Let’s go. We are going back to sign the contract with Boss Wu.”

The agent: “…”

The price got lowered from 30k to 15k. He earned 7,500 RMB less than what he was supposed to earn.

After they signed the contract, Liu Man directly transferred Boss Wu 60k according to the ratio rule of 1 to 4. Boss Wu grinned when he saw the money, and he smiled to Liu Man as he shook his head, “Young lady, you are very impressive. You are really vicious when it comes to bargaining prices.”

“Same for you. Didn’t you refrain from blushing when you asked for 30k?”

Boss Wu went speechless. He felt helpless that such an experienced man like him who had been doing this for a long time could not win a debate against a young girl.

After renting the warehouse, Liu Man immediately told Zhang Pei, who was very enthusiastic about seeing the new storage space.

And so, on the next day, Liu Man came over with Zhang Pei.

Zhang Pei felt very surprised, “The rent here is only 15k?” When the rented the second floor of Owner Wang’s restaurant, they had to pay 14k per month.

Liu Man nodded, “It’s just that this house doesn’t look pretty.”

“We are renting it to store our products. Why does it need to look pretty? As long as the roof doesn’t leak rainwater and wind, it’s nothing even if it’s a bit dirty or messy. This price is very worthy,” Zhang Pei felt very satisfied.

The mother and daughter were not afraid of the sweltering temperature. They walked to every corner of the warehouse. Liu Man, with a pen and a notebook in each hand, recorded the location of every chasm and every spot that wasn’t flat. She also recorded the area of spots on the ceiling and on the walls that required extra painting that they needed to pay for.

“Tomorrow, I will call the employees over so we can clean this place up a bit,” Zhang Pei said, “This might require lots of work, and we won’t be able to finish this in just one to two days.”

Liu Man nodded and said, “I will be in charge of finding people to do the makeover of this new warehouse.”

The mother and daughter both focused on actions. They did what they said!

Because the new warehouse was quite far away and the transportation was quite inconvenient, Liu Man hired a van driver online. He would driving Zhang Pei and the employees to and fro the warehouse right on time every day.

Liu Man first went to an actual makeover company to ask about the price, and they gave her a very high price, which scared her away. She then found a few makeover teams online and called them one by one. After comparing three teams, she finally decided on using Mr. Zhu’s makeover team.

The makeover team was quite efficient. On the afternoon of the day in which Liu Man called them, the person in charge, Mr. Zhu, had a meeting with her to talk about the details.

Firstly, they would be making the ceiling and the walls waterproof; secondly, the floor needs to be damp-proof; thirdly, the cracks and chasms need to be fixed; fourthly, the floor needs to be flattened; fifthly, they need the tap water system, electricity system, and heating; lastly, they would need to make the storage space prettier.

Liu Man and her mother only focused on the functionality.

Mr. Zhu said it would be no problem, and they would only need to pay 140k. The job would be done in a month. Liu Man had already researched about similar prices and asked the other makeover teams, so she had no disagreements with this price. She immediately signed the makeover contract in that moment and paid 30k as the deposit.

Liu Man had spent every single penny in her account.

Time quickly reached July since they had been very busy and made use of every day. Li Shuhua had never received the rest of his attorney fee, which was 150k. He felt very upset and called Sun Yiyi, pressing for the payment.

Sun Yiyi felt very confused. Why was this call, asking for money, directed at him?

Li Shuhua could’ve directly called Liu Man. However, people like them (Lawyer Li and Lawyer Sun) loved being circuitous. If Li Shuhua really called Liu Man pressing for the fee, what if he offended Tang Tu?

Using someone else, not offending anyone, and saving Tang Tu’s dignity was the smartest way.

Sun Yiyi took out his phone. Looking at Zhang Pei and Liu Chengyu’s names in his contract, he subconsciously wanted to call Zhang Pei. However, he then thought of how Zhang Pei and her daughter had already pledged their house and borrowed money from everyone because of Liu Chengyu, and they had already did all they could.

Now, Liu Chengyu had already returned with no harm being done. Nothing happened to him. He, as the man in this family, should bear this lawyer fee. This was the most basic responsibility of any man.

After all, Sun Yiyi was Zhang Pei’s high school classmate. He was more leaning towards protecting Zhang Pei’s benefits.

And so, he called Liu Chengyu.

When Liu Chengyu heard the number, 150k, he was first surprised before getting angry. He had thought Zhang Pei was just being too mad when she wanted him to pay the debt alone. He didn’t think she really would leave this matter to him!

Ever since Liu Chengyu and Zhang Pei had a huge argument when Liu Man moved out, they started communicating less and less. Zhang Pei moved everything she had to Liu Man’s room, and she and Liu Chengyu slept in separate rooms.

For the six months Liu Chengyu spent in the detention center, he had not had a single good night of sleep. Every day, his mind was in a highly anxious and alerted status; therefore, when he could return back home again and lie on his familiar bed, he was so excited he almost cried. He was going to make up all the sleep he lost for the past six months!

And so, when Zhang Pei leaves for work every day at 8 a.m, Liu Chengyu, who wasn’t busy at all, was still snoring in bed. When Zhang Pei returned at 10 p.m, Liu Chengyu had already fallen asleep.

Back when Zhang Pei was still a housewife, Liu Chengyu had made many bad habits because of her. For example, Liu Chengyu never washed his own clothes. Every single time, before he took a shower, he would pile up all his dirty laundry in the sink and wait for Zhang Pei to clean them up.

At that time, Zhang Pei naturally had no complaints and did her job as a housewife. Now, she could earn money herself and she had a busy job. How could she have the time to wash clothes? She felt very angry whenever she saw the pile of dirty clothes in the sink, but she was too lazy to waste her break time to argue against Liu Chengyu, so she ignored them.

As a result, when Liu Chengyu wake up the next morning, he would see his dirty clothes still there in the sink, not touched at all since last night. Zhang Pei, however, had already washed her own clothes and hung them on the balcony.

How could Liu Chengyu not get angry?

He had discovered that Zhang Pei no longer put all her attention on him like before, caring for all the business at home for him. Before, when he got off work every day, there would be a hot meal on the table waiting for him. Now, not even a bottle of water was there. The kitchen and the fridge were also quite empty. It had been quite long since Zhang Pei last cooked, not to mention she had stopped going to the supermarket to buy ingredients.

Liu Chengyu felt more upset the more he thought about it.

He thought all of the changes that happened to Zhang Pei were caused by that Princess who took over their daughter’s body. Zhang Pei wasted all her time on the Princess, and it seemed as if he no longer existed in her eyes.

Wasn’t she just packing up and sending products in a storage space near their house? She could at least take some time to buy some ingredients. He still had to take time to squeeze into crowded metro stations for his job!

Liu Chengyu had no idea what Zhang Pei was thinking. Their daughter had already passed away. Now, they were the closest people to each other, and they were family. How could Zhang Pei be more inclined to an outsider?
