She is so rich, but she is unwilling to give out even a mere 30,000 yuan. Poor daughter is still hiding outside and can't even live a peaceful life.
Faced with Ning Lan's indifferent attitude, the little hope Ning Xi had in her heart was eventually completely gone.
So, she stopped talking nonsense, glanced inside the room and said, "Aunt, we thought we heard someone in your room just now? Who is it?"
Hearing this, Ning Lan's cold expression suddenly tensed up. She glanced at her with a hint of vigilance in her eyes.
"No one, just a few friends." After saying that, she showed her impatience again, "Okay, I'm fine, you can go back if you have nothing to do."
After saying that, he was about to close the door.
Then a man's voice was heard inside: "Ms. Ning, is your niece here? It's great. Let her help you with the price. If you don't agree, then we won't buy this house."
Hearing this, Ning Lan froze at the doorway, looking at Ning Xi with a guilty look in her eyes, then quickly retracted her gaze, biting her lip slightly and saying, "This is my business, no one else has to worry about it."
Her words were double entendres, addressed to both the man who was speaking and Ning Xi.
But the man inside obviously didn't intend to do as she wished and walked over.
Ning Xi then saw that the other person was a slightly younger man. Judging from his clothes and the work badge on his chest, he should be a professional real estate agent.
Behind him followed a rather plain-looking middle-aged couple.
"Ms. Ning, if you want to make your own decision, then you should make sure whether this price is acceptable to you.
Otherwise, we shouldn't waste our time here. Mr. Fei and his friends are sincere buyers, and the price they offer is reasonable considering current housing prices. Besides, you're in a hurry to sell. If you miss out on such sincere buyers like Mr. Fei, you might not be able to find another buyer next time.
The intermediary man said a lot at once, and did not hide anything for Ning Lan.
Ning Lan's face had turned completely pale. She glanced at Ning Xi and Qin Yan at the door and kept pinching her knuckles. "Well, I..."
"Aunt, I have something to tell you." Ning Xi looked at her nervous and apprehensive expression and spoke.
But her words seemed to have touched some pain point in Ning Lan, making her, who was already nervous, suddenly angry.
"What do you have to say? This is my house. I can sell it if I want to. Why do you care about me?" She raised her voice excitedly, and glared at Ning Xi angrily with her slightly red eyes.
Ning Xi opened her mouth but didn't say anything in the end.
Qin Yan's eyes darkened slightly as he glanced at the people in the room.
The intermediary man shuddered and immediately said, "How about this, Ms. Ning, please think about it. We'll go look somewhere else first and wait for a call later!"
After saying that, without waiting for Ning Lan to say anything else, the intermediary man walked out quickly with the middle-aged couple.
"This...you guys..." Ning Lan immediately became anxious upon seeing this. Finally, she gritted her teeth and said, "Okay, I agree! I agree to this price!"
The intermediary man paused, exchanged glances with the middle-aged couple, and finally looked at Ning Xi and Qin Yan.
"Look at what they are doing, the house is mine!" Ning Lan said again.
"Well, why don't you guys discuss it again? After all, selling a house is a big deal, right? Once everything is confirmed, we can contact each other again!" After seeing Qin Yan's cold expression, the intermediary man immediately found an excuse to shirk responsibility.
Then they looked at the middle-aged couple and squeezed out of Ning Lan's house.
Watching the people leave, Ning Lan clenched her fists in anger. Finally, she glared at Ning Xi at the door and said, "Are you satisfied now? Ning Xi, this house is mine. If I hadn't applied to the school, they wouldn't have given it to me. The application quota is mine!"
She thought Qin Yan had already told Ning Xi about the resettlement fee. That was why she wanted to stop her from selling the house, just to grab it.
In fact, she was right to think so. Ning Xi knew it and really didn't want her to sell the house to someone else, but she never thought of competing with her for the house.
"Aunt, I know all this. I came here to tell you that if you want to sell the house, then sell it to me."
Ning Lan stood there in a daze after hearing this, her eyes fixed on Ning Xi's face, feeling a little surprised and a little suspicious.
Seeing that her eyes were calm and frank, without any intention of deceiving, Ning Lan became even more confused.
"Why? What do you want this house for?"
"Nothing, it's just that this place..." Ning Xi turned her gaze to the small house behind her, "This is where my sister and I have lived the longest."
It is also the place where she and her sister have the most memories.
Hearing her say this, Ning Lan was stunned again. Her gaze gradually became distant, and the angry expression on her face softened.
"Yes, you and Ning Yue were so young back then..." The way they followed her, relying on each other, was very similar to how she and her sister used to be.
But why did she and her sister drift further and further apart in the end?
Seeing Ning Lan suddenly in a daze, Ning Xi and Qin Yan looked at each other again. Qin Yan put his arm around her shoulders and patted her gently to comfort her.
Later, Ning Lan didn't know what she was thinking of, her expression suddenly became serious again, and the gentleness in her eyebrows was replaced by hostility.
"Auntie!" Ning Xi was a little worried and called out hurriedly.
Ning Lan's eyes, which had been fixed just now, finally moved. She looked at her seriously and said, "Then how much do you plan to pay?"
