Chapter 870

Jane gently patted her head. "Let's give that little girl a video call first."

Christine hurried to find her phone and opened the landlord's contact.

As soon as the call connected, the little girl's eyes were red.

Tears still streaked her cheeks.

The landlord was with her, keeping her company without sleep.

Christine apologized, "I'm so sorry for disturbing your rest."

"Don't mention it." The landlord stroked her daughter's head. "As long as you're safe."

Christine smiled at the little girl. "Thanks to this brave little one, I'm perfectly fine."

The little girl leaned closer to the screen. "You're lying, sis. Your lips are all swollen."

"Uh..."

Christine cleared her throat. "That's just because I ate something spicy."

To prevent the little girl from saying more, Christine continued, "Alright, time for bed. We'll chat again after school."

"Sis had quite the adventure and needs some rest too."

The little girl, understanding, handed the phone back to her mom and went to bed.

Christine told the landlord, "I've decided not to rent the apartment anymore, but you can keep the deposit for all the trouble."

The landlord replied, "No need for formalities. If you ever want to come back, this place will be here for you."
