With Big Brother | Landlord

In the next few days. Avery stayed at home in order to hide and calm the situation down. He was sitting on the couch with his sister watching on a small worned out TV. Even though they were poor due to what happened, they were still able to buy some entertainment as it was hard for people like them who used to be rich to adjust suddenly. They only started to lose everything after he made a mistake in gambling in the past timeline.

While watching TV, Avery suddenly reached out and held Little Yue's hand. She was surprised by the sudden action but did not pull away.

'Whaa!! Big Brother is holding my hands! It feels so warm. I want to hold it forever.' Little Yue thought with blush covering her cheeks. She glanced at her brother who was watching the TV. But she noticed a small blush on his face.

Seeing that she thought of something. She glanced at his shoulder and decided to lean her head on it. Her face was becoming more hot when she felt the warmth of his body.

Avery was surprised but did not reject it as the blush on his face intensified while keeping a calm face and watched the TV. Little Yue looked up and saw the side profile of Avery's face. She was mesmerized by his handsome face even their living condition can't hide the beauty in it.

Avery, feeling her hot breath on his face, looked at her. Like his sister, he was also mesmerized by her beauty and stared at her. Their faces were so close that they could feel each other's hot breath on their faces. But then…

*Ding Dong!* *Ding Dong!!*

They were brought out of their stupor and looked away as the blush on their face. Though you could see the irritation on their face as the doorbell interrupted them. Avery stood up and went to get something before going to the door while Little Yue sat and calmed herself down.

'It should be the landlord. Heh. You should enjoy this last set of money as we will be moving out.'

'We could have moved yesterday. But I needed to calm the situation down as those guys might still be looking for me. Plus if I decided to escape this month's rent, this guy might get persistent and search for us. Which would lead to more trouble for me. So I should settle everything now.'

Avery opened the door and was presented by a fat greasy man who had a grin on his face that made his face more disgusting than it already is.

"Where's the money! You should pay up or I'll throw you out of this room!"

"Here. Take it and leave." Avery said calmly as he handed out exactly 15,000 credits to the landlord.

…

He was surprised as Avery was able to hand the money out easily.

'He probably expected me to beg and lower myself like what my past self did. Tch! Just thinking of my past behavior disgusts me. I, the ruler of the Aevum Empire, kneeling in front of this disgusting man! Unacceptable! I kneel to no one except my sister!'

"What's this?! It's 5,000 credits short! You are late by one day! Now pay up or leave my apartment!" He shouted as saliva started spurting out as he talked.

Avery took a step back to avoid it and said "Fine. We will leave by tomorrow. Now get out of my face." Avery said and slammed the door on his face.

The fat man stood there stunned as things did not go as he expected.

'Ignorant fool. We are leaving by tomorrow anyway so why should I pay extra for this worthless apartment of yours'

"Big Brother. Is something wrong?" Little Yue asked with a worried cute look on her beautiful face.

"Nothing, Little Yue. You should dress up. As we'll go out shopping today"

"Really!! We're going shopping today! It's been ages since we last went to shop together!" She exclaimed in excitement, making her beautiful face more beautiful with the smile on her face.

"Yes. We're shopping so you should hurry up and get dressed."

Little Yue calmed down and the realization came upon her "But Big Brother we should not waste money, I don't want to make you suffer more." She said in a sad voice as her previous excitement took over her that she failed to see things clearly a while ago.

"No, it's fine Little Yue. I actually earned a ton of money this time so get up and get dressed so we can go out."

"But…"

"It's fine. Trust me on this one please."

She looked at Avery in the eyes and could not detect any lies in it so she decided to follow through.

"Okay! I trust you Big Brother!" She got up and hurriedly dressed with excitement oozing out of her. Avery smiled seeing her like this.
