Chapter 199 The House Returned to Its Rightful Owner



To be neighbors?

This statement completely baffled Wang Feifei.

"Does he want to set aside one of his units to sell to me?"

"Although the idea is well-intentioned, it's still quite terrifying to think about."

First of all, based on her calculations of the total amount of supplies, the space in one house is far from enough.

Secondly, the biggest advantage of unfinished buildings is that they have few residents and are located in remote areas. The reason for choosing the top floor is also to avoid attracting attention.

If the downstairs neighbor is an adult male, the risk is undoubtedly extremely high.

Not only might supplies be looted, but they might even be eaten alive!

Having experienced her past life, Wang Feifei believes in the truth that one should never try to test human nature.

Absolutely not!

Thinking of this, Wang Feifei's tone became somewhat stiff: "No need, the house... isn't... in a rush..."

I'll look for it slowly, thank you for your kindness!

Xu Neng was not surprised at all by Wang Feifei's decisive rejection.

He knew her personality too well; it was almost impossible for him to get her to let her guard down with a stranger.

Moreover, it also relates to her layout of the safe house.

"What if I sell you the whole house?"

Wang Feifei's eyes widened in disbelief: "You're selling the house? But didn't you just buy it? Are you selling it so soon?"

“I might be going back to the US, so I don’t need this house anymore. I want to sell it quickly, and that’s when I thought of you. Are you interested?” Xu Neng made up a reason on the spot.

Wang Feifei simply couldn't believe it. Just a few seconds ago, they were asking if they wanted to be neighbors, and now they're rushing to sell. Is this how rich people are?

To be honest, she was somewhat tempted...

Xiao Liu was clearly struggling, and she was worried that the progress would be slowed down indefinitely.

"So... how much do you plan to sell it for?" she finally asked.

Xu Neng hesitated for a moment. He originally wanted to give it directly to Wang Feifei, but given her personality, doing so would definitely arouse her suspicion, and she would not accept it.

Then let's use the starting bid: "two million."

Two million? This brings us back to the initial price, and Wang Feifei can hardly believe it.

But why was he willing to lose so much?

Wang Feifei has never liked taking advantage of others; she always makes sure to ask the right questions.

"Are you sure it's two million? Isn't that too much of a loss?"

Xu Neng chuckled and nodded slightly: "To thank you for driving me around and treating me to dinner, I wouldn't be selling it to anyone else for this price!"

"So, Miss Wang, are you interested?"

This was forcing her to make a decision. She had only met this man once, and Wang Feifei was a little uneasy, but the opportunity was also quite rare...

Whether it's true or not, she still wants to try.

"Let me think about it and give you an answer tomorrow, okay?"

"Okay, I'll wait for you... Can we meet somewhere tomorrow to discuss the details?"

"Okay, sure."

After hanging up the phone, Wang Feifei was somewhat pleased, but with time so tight, she needed to find a way to raise more money.

Just like in her previous life, she used the same method, borrowing two million yuan in Chu Xiang's name through online loans...

...

The next day, the day it was time to move out, the supermarket landlord came to the door in person.

Yesterday, Chen Nian fell from a ladder, hitting his head and suffering multiple abrasions on his arms. His father almost had a stroke, but after seeing his son injured, he calmed down and narrowly escaped a serious injury.

The father and son barely slept a wink last night and were still asleep until 10 a.m. To save money, they didn't turn on the air conditioner and ended up feeling sticky all over.

Suddenly, the roller shutter door outside the supermarket was slammed shut with a loud bang...

Today is the deadline. If we delay any longer, we'll have to pay the compensation ourselves. The landlord was worried, so he sent two helpers to our door.

"Open the door! Open the door now!"

Chen Nian's father woke up with a start: "Niannian, what should we do?"

"It's okay, I'll go open the door!"

Chen Nian casually grabbed a fruit knife, put it in his pocket, and slowly walked to the door.

Just as he was about to open the door, the roller shutter was suddenly lifted up, and blinding sunlight shone into the dark supermarket, causing Chen Nian to instinctively squint.

"You must be Old Chen's son. Is your father home?"

"My dad isn't feeling well. Tell me what's wrong." Chen Nian's eyes gleamed with a sinister light.

Having experienced a past life where human life was treated like dirt, the evil hidden in Chen Nian's heart is now stirring.

His hand naturally slipped into his pocket, gripping the fruit knife...

"Call your dad out, I want to talk to him," the landlord said impatiently.

"What do you mean by bringing people here?" Chen Nian said bluntly.

"Oh, them? Of course they're helping you move. More people means faster moving, right?"

Chen Nian's eyes were slightly red, and the muscles in his arms were tense...

Suddenly, his father stepped in front of him and said in a humble voice, "Landlord, we can move, but could you give us three more days so we can find a place to stay? We're in such a rush to move today, and we have nowhere else to go."

"Two or three days is definitely not enough. You have to move today. How about this, you can move to my garage for a couple of days as a temporary measure? This is already the biggest concession we can make."

Chen Nian's eyes lit up: "Where is your garage?"

"It's not far from here, just in the basement of the complex, but let me be clear, you can only stay for a week at most!"

Chen Nian recalled his past life, in which he had knocked Chu Xiang unconscious in the basement to help Wang Feifei escape.

At the same time, it can also avoid Xu Neng, making it a good hiding place!

"Okay! Let's move now."

...

Meanwhile, at an unremarkable budget hotel on the eastern outskirts of the city, the front desk was bustling with people.

There were more guests staying at the hotel on the weekend than usual, with a constant stream of customers checking out and checking in.

Xu Neng sat leisurely in the lobby, choosing a seat against the wall, sipping coffee while checking the latest financial news.

Before long, a familiar figure appeared!

The man was dressed casually, with a pair of exquisite gold-rimmed glasses that obscured his handsome features, but could not hide his incongruous air about him.

Two uneasy girls stood beside him. After checking in smoothly, they hurried to the elevator lobby.

It seemed they didn't want to linger for even a second longer.

Xu put down his coffee cup, slowly got up, and strolled toward the elevator.

In this life, before Wang Feifei learns the truth, he will take action himself...

...

Wang Feifei arrived at the meeting place, a low-rise shopping mall on the east side of the city.

Upon entering, she was led by a waiter to a private room with a large floor-to-ceiling window and a dining table right next to it.

Wang Feifei sat by the window, habitually looking out.

The view outside the window was unremarkable; downstairs was an ordinary street, and not far away was a budget hotel.

At exactly twelve o'clock, Xu Neng pushed the door open and came in.

He looked at Wang Feifei sitting by the window with a bright smile.

Today, he wants to give her a gift...
