One Meet By Chance novel Chapter 486

"Hey, old man, I'm telling you, a new tenant is here today. That woman is with a handsome man who is in a coma."

The grey haired old man who was sitting opposite the landlady took a sip of the wine and then picked up some food before replying slowly.

"I know I met them with you today. They just rent a house from us. Their identity has nothing to do with us. Why do you say that? Sooner or later, you will suffer losses from your words."

"Gee, you old man, I just feel that the woman and the man are very strange. The woman said that the man is her brother. Tell me, where does brother and sister live in the same room? I think they are lover."

"Okay."

The old man nodded and continued to eat, while the landlady kept talking.

"Old man, let me tell you something. I seem to have seen that woman somewhere, but I can't remember her. I said the rent of our small house was one thousand and three hundred a months. That woman paid me without hesitation, and she didn't even bargain with me."

Standing behind her, Teresa was speechless. The landlady still wanted her to bargain with her? It was a loss, but she was so embarrassed now. Should she remind the landlady that she was standing at the door?

"Shouldn't you be happy she doesn't bargain with you?"

"Don't you think it's strange? In my opinion, the woman might collude with her lover and kill her husband and get the family property. But there might be something happened to her lover on the way. So he became like this. Tut, tut, women nowadays are the most vicious. Look at you, how lucky you are to marry me."

The old man looked up at his wife. He nodded repeatedly.

"Yes, yes. It's my fortune to marry you, okay? How old are you? Don't you feel ashamed to say that?"

"Why I feel ashamed? This is my home. Can there be a person standing at the door to listen to us..."

The landlady just raised her head and wanted to say that could there be someone standing at the door listening to us talking about our daily lives? However, when she looked up, she saw Teresa standing at the door.

"Ah, ahem, well, when did you come?"

The landlady stood up awkwardly and smiled at Teresa. Teresa wanted to laugh, but she couldn't. Others were talking about her behind her back.

'What? Murder my own husband? I am so greedy for property and run away with my lover? She said these words with a grave expression, as if she meant them to be true. No one would be happy when they heard this.'

"Ah, you are here. You are the one who rented a house here today, right? We met before. I'm really sorry. My wife just likes to gossip. She is a good woman."

The landlord stood up. He was also embarrassed. But this woman had been standing at their door silently for so long without making a sound. What was she doing?

"Oh, nothing. I'm sorry to bother Mrs. landlady. Can you lend me your phone. I want to order takeout. I really don't have time to cook today."

"Oh. Let my wife make some dumplings for you. It's okay. It's your first time to come here. We can cook for you."

"I don't think it's a good idea."

"It doesn't matter. I can feel that you are a nice person. Honey, hurry up and do it."

"Well, well, Ms. Teresa, please have a seat here. I'll be back soon."
