Li Muchan put down her spoon, pulled a tissue from the dispenser, and elegantly wiped her lips.
Lin Zhe was puzzled.
How had someone as cultured and elegant as Li Muchan given birth to a slob like Fatty?

She skimmed it and quickly finished reading.
"You should add a security deposit clause."

"We're planning to start with a deposit of 99,000 yuan, then make appropriate adjustments based on how well customers accept it."

After all, at the current rental rate, a month would cost over 40,000 yuan.
