"Your grandfather and I had a pretty good relationship back then. I treated you as my junior and came over so readily. Otherwise, do you think I would be willing to sell this house?"
What the man said was pure bullshit.
Everyone knows how bad the reputation of the funeral street is. People passing by don’t dare to get close to it, let alone there are fools who want to buy houses on the street.
For more than three years, he has been constantly regretting why he bought a shop here. As a result, he did not make much money from his business. Later, because of those things, this street became what others called a "ghost street."
Not only did the business fail, but the house was also reduced to rubble! He had lost hundreds of thousands of dollars in vain!
㰴I thought this house was really going to rot here, but I didn’t expect to receive news that someone wanted to buy it.
Only a fool wouldn't want to sell!
That's why he made this trip, just to sell the house and turn it into cash as soon as possible to avoid any accidents later.
However, when he learned that the person who bought the house was Lin Xi, the man had some ideas in his mind.
Such a young girl certainly doesn't understand the situation. He would quote a higher price at the beginning, and then lower it a little later, and at the same time say that it was because of her grandfather's past kindness. Not only would this worldly-wise girl not realize that she had overpaid, she might even shed tears of gratitude.
Because he knew that the young girl was easy to fool, he was neither in a hurry nor slow in the morning. He even overslept for twenty minutes before setting off.
Of course, this reason cannot be stated explicitly.
Seeing that Lin Xi and Qian Duojin remained unmoved, he quickly realized where the problem lay.
"I wasn't late on purpose. There was a traffic accident on the highway just now, and the congestion toll couldn't be adjusted. My phone also happened to be out of service, so I couldn't contact you in time."
"Although there are reasons for my lateness, it is ultimately my fault. As your uncle, I apologize to you. Is that enough?"
In fact, there was no car accident at all. He just didn't want to admit that he overslept.
Anyway, Lin Xi didn't know which road she took when she came here. These days, car accidents happen in so many places every day. She would definitely be able to find it if she went to look for the news.
Unexpectedly, Lin Xi finally reacted after hearing this.
But this reaction was different from what the man expected.
Because Lin Xi said, "Car accidents are indeed dangerous, so you have to be careful."
After saying that, Lin Xi withdrew his gaze from the other person's face, called Qian Duojin and walked away without even turning his head.
The man was dumbfounded.
Seeing that Lin Xi was determined not to buy the house, he finally couldn't help but curse behind his back.
Scolding Lin Xi for being uncultured and not keeping his word.
Qian Duojin was so angry that he wanted to turn around and beat him up.
They were just in the process of looking at a house and negotiating. Who said they had to buy it?!
It was as if they had already signed the contract and Lin Xi had breached it.
Lin Xi was not angry, because she could see that the other party would have a disaster today, and it would be a big one.
If nothing unexpected happens, I will probably spend the rest of my life in a wheelchair.
After they arrived at the soup kitchen, they simply asked Tang Yu and the old lady to go to a nearby restaurant for lunch. The group left quickly, leaving the man glaring at them angrily for a long time.
The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. He never expected that he would be fooled by a young girl like Lin Xi!
Originally, the deal was not concluded, so he should have gone home directly, but he was holding a grudge in his heart and was unwilling to leave like this.
So the man quickly went to wander around the nearby streets, intending to create some trouble for Lin Xi and let her reputation of "not keeping her promises" spread!
There is no one living in this world who doesn't care about reputation. He doesn't believe that when people around her point fingers at Lin Xi, she can still live comfortably!
But what he didn't expect was that when he found a familiar face, an old customer who had bought things in his store, saying bad things about Lin Xi, the old customer looked at him strangely.
