If she doesnât handle such a big issue personally, it would be difficult to resolve. Moreover, given how attractive she is, when combined with this incident, it would be easy for people to get angry and think sheâs the one behind it all.
Her good looks may make people unwilling to cooperate, which may intensify their anger.
Furthermore, a womanâs presence often pales in comparison to a manâs. A womanâs presence tends to give people the impression of being easy to bully.
So when Yigol found out that Suri intended to handle this matter herself, he became furious.
He wouldnât allow her to put herself in danger.
Only then did Suri understand why Yigol was so upset today. She muttered softly, âI⦠I can handle it.â
At that time, she didnât think too much. Firstly, she had been used to solving problems herself. Secondly, she didnât want to trouble Yigol. He had already given her the house, and it would be too much if she still went to him for help.
Originally, she didnât think there was any problem. But suddenly, after being confronted by Yigol, she felt guilty.
At the same time, she felt warm inside. Having someone to rely on, being spoiled and protected, felt so good.
Yigol pinched Suriâs little face: âYou said you could handle it?â
âCome on, tell me now you plan to handle itââ
âIf youâre right, Iâll apologize to you, and you can punish me however you want.
If youâre wrong, just see how Iâll deal with you today.â
Suri gave him a sideways glance: âThis is easy to handle. First, Iâll talk to the tenants and tell them Iâm checking the rent issue and want to involve the related departments. Iâll also tell them about the previous tenantâs bad behavior. â
âEven if that tenant collected extra rent, he must have kept records. Such people usually have two or more account books â one for themselves and the other for regular checks or dealing with others.â
âJust compare the accounts, and return the extra money they paid. Isnât that enough?â
âIs that how youâre going to handle it?â Yigol asked.
Suri nodded: âYes, what else do I need to do?â
âWhen we just got married, I learned that your company was in trouble. You were calling up some property owners, trying to charm them to get their houses. They wanted to have dinner with you, but you refused.â
âYou actually knew what was going on, right? The prices you offered were reasonable at that time, but they still didnât give you the properties. Why?â Yigol asked.
Suri replied, âI know, they all had ulterior motives, and I would never fall for their traps. â
âIâm aware that Iâm attractive, so I often encounter such situations at work. Iâve long been used to it.â
Suri poked her forehead: âDo you think only those people are bad? What about the tenants? Are there any such people among them?â
Suri replied with some disbelief, âOf course not, they are allâ¦â
She wanted to say no, but somehow she felt she didnât have a strong case.
âWhy arenât you saying anything?â Yigol saw through her hesitation.
After thinking it over, Suri stubbornly replied, âThey just want to get their money back, which is not a problem. Iâve asked around, even youâve been getting the account books checked. I think you must want to return the extra money to them, right?â
âI didnât tell you because I was also planning to do that. Just compare the account books and give them the money they are owed. Whatâs wrong with that?â
âWhereâs my mistake?â Suri initially thought there was no issue, but Yigolâs words made her question herself.
âYou really areâ¦â Yigol was both annoyed and unwilling to be hard on Suri:
âYouâve grown up, how can you not seeâ¦â
âYigol, Iâm warning you, if you donât mention age, we can still talk nicely.â
Just a moment ago, Yigol was aggressive, but now he immediately backed down, âOkay, I wonât talk about it. You are a company owner, so you should know how to handle this kind of thing better. You know that youâre being pursued by some people, but youâre not worried that some of these tenants might have bad intentions?â
âBad people donât care whether others are rich or not. Caution is always necessary. If you encounter a psychopath, youâll be in big trouble.â
âAlso, we both have experienced poverty. Although you donât lack money now, you used to know what itâs like to struggle and not have enough to spend, right?â
âMany of these tenants live at the bottom of society, and money is very important to them. During this period, they have been constantly thinking about the money they lost, unable to vent their emotions.â
âNormally, they might form a group to discuss strategies and vent their feelings, or they might frequently gather together to discuss how to get their money back. Bad emotions are contagious. Some people may not have ill intentions, but after being influenced by others, they develop them. Itâs possible that their anger will keep escalating until they one day explode.â âYouâre so beautiful; when they see you, they might think youâre a femme fatale. With all the people who have ulterior motives and other chaotic elements gathered together, are you really sure you can handle it?â
After hearing Yigolâs analysis, Suri instantly understood and recognized his concerns.
If it really came to that level, she wouldnât know what to do.
Yigol continued, âThere are those who exploit others among businessmen and ordinary people alike. If these tenants want compensation or more benefits from us, and someone leads the charge, what will you do then?â
âDonât talk about legality; in that situation, help will be far away. If it were me, it would be okay, but if it were you, what would you do?â
âEven if it doesnât cost you your life, thereâs still a chance you might end up stripped naked in public, right?â
Suri, feeling guilty, nodded. Indeed, she hadnât thought about it so much. She just thought that returning the overpaid rent would be enough and failed to see how complex society can be.
Bad people are everywhere, and discontentment is a universal phenomenon..
