share time: 2026-05-07 15:22:06

Fresh graduate Lin Xiao rents a studio in an old neighborhood when her landlord suddenly raises her rent by 30% maliciously, forcing her to either agree or move out. With her job just getting on track and rent taking up most of her savings, she’s desperate when she spots the vacant adjacent apartment for rent—only to find its owner is the reliable aunt, her former landlord’s old rival who never overcharges. Lin Xiao signs immediately, gets a fair rent, uncovers a long-held grudge between the two, becomes a tiny force against the bad landlord, and starts a life full of surprises and twists.
