They have nothing to offer, nothing to offer. The family that was assaulted comes to their door every day, demanding compensation, wanting to sell their house urgently, their daughter is still in detention, and the couple has lost their jobs. Everything is going wrong, and they are so worried that they sigh all day long.

Just when they were extremely anxious, they met a lawyer by chance who claimed that he could represent Cheng Yuxuan in her case and help them sell their house.

The Cheng couple were overjoyed and rushed to the high-end-looking law firm with the property certificate in hand.

"Attorney Xiao, Attorney Xiao, please help us! We urgently need to sell this house, we desperately need the money!"

Xiao Shisan sat in an office decorated like a law firm, dressed impeccably in a sharp suit, his hair slicked back with gel, wearing gold-rimmed glasses, sipping black coffee, casually flipping through a few pages of property deeds, and calmly said:

“This house isn’t registered in your name… Ji Baishu? If you’re selling the house, what’s your relationship with Ji Baishu? You need to get her involved.”

Aunt Cheng was a little embarrassed and muttered, "This is my niece. She's just a child. What does she know? We adults will handle it for her and that's it."

Xiao Shisan said, "It's not legally permissible. Besides, this is a house in Beijing. How fast are house prices in Beijing rising? Last year it was 30,000 yuan per square meter, and this year it's 50,000! This house is in the Fifth Ring Road. Although it's an old residential area, the location is excellent, and the price will visibly increase significantly. Wouldn't it be a huge loss to sell it now?"

Uncle Cheng's eyes flashed with reluctance as he hurriedly said, "But we urgently need the money! If there were any other way, we wouldn't be willing to sell this house!"

Xiao Shisan said seriously, "Urgently need money? With this house, you don't seem like a family short of money. Why are you short of money?"

Normally, it's considered a big no-no to pry into other people's family affairs, but at this moment, Uncle Cheng and Aunt Cheng were already flustered and said without thinking, "Because we recently bought a school district house here...we want our child to go to school."

Xiao Shisan slammed his fist on the table: "Then why don't we just sell this house?!"

His sudden excitement startled the Cheng couple. Ignoring their hesitation, Xiao Shisan leaned forward, his hand on the table, his tone both assertive and authoritative:

"How can a house in this third-tier county compare to a house in Beijing?! Even if it's a school district property, so what? It's only going to cost 11,000 yuan per square meter at most! That house is in Beijing!"

The Cheng couple's lips trembled: "But, but..."

But this house is registered in their names, while the one in Beijing is registered in Ji Baishu's name...

"Last year it was 30,000, this year it's 50,000, next year it'll be 80,000, and the year after that it'll be 100,000! If you sell this 130-square-meter house now, you'll lose two or three million! Think about it, who's so rich that they'd just throw two or three million down the drain like that?!"

Uncle Cheng clearly began to hesitate, and Aunt Cheng said worriedly, "If we sell it, won't we have nowhere to live?"

"Rent a place! Renting a place only costs a few hundred yuan a month. Your daughter's case will only result in a few hundred thousand yuan in compensation. Think about the houses in Beijing, they'll appreciate by three million next year! A mere few hundred thousand yuan is nothing!"

Aunt Cheng was about to say something when Uncle Cheng suddenly pulled her back. She turned her head and saw a greedy glint in her husband's eyes.

"Three million..."
