There's a Mole!

"Did you… bargain?" Pei Qian asked.

Assistant Xin smiled. "I had wanted to, Boss Pei. In the end, I didn't even manage to say anything; and Manager Zhang proactively raised the topic."

Pei Qian felt that he was growing a little dizzy. That made sense though. No matter how eloquent Assistant Xin might be, how could she have unilaterally cut the rent by so much?

There was more than meets the eye!

Manager Zhang was only the manager for Shenhua View; where would he get so much authority to decide on reducing rent and waiving a deposit?

If 4 yuan had been the standard, cutting it to 3.5 yuan would already be not bad while reducing it to 3 yuan would be a very generous discount. However, it was immediately cut all the way to 1.5 yuan per square feet?

Who was he trying to kid?
