Riches in Disguise

Chapter 344

After dinner, I followed Jane to her rented apartment. She was still hesitating downstairs, unwilling to go up. After I gave her several pointed looks, she finally took me to the seventh floor.

felt slightly relieved. At least the door looked secure, with a fairly new lock.

To make things worse, two people were squatting in the hallway, cleaning shoes, and doing laundry. As I walked through, I noticed about seven or eight doors along both sides of the corridor, with voices coming from each one.

This was just a typical residential building converted into rental rooms. Even without having lived here, I could tell that the safety hazards and fire risks were off the charts. How could anyone live here?

Jane's room was at the very end. Before opening the door, she gave me one last nervous glance as if gathering the courage to push the door open and let me in.
