She asked in confusion, "Didn't you say she went back to the countryside? How come she's here? Can she afford a house here? Why would she dare to come and look?"
The girl who said this was Chen Yitian, the same girl who had tipped off Qin Nian last time.
Upon hearing this, Qin Nian looked in the direction Chen Yitian indicated and indeed saw Qin Yunie sitting there, with the saleswoman opposite her talking enthusiastically.
Qin Nian looked at Qin Yunie, her emotions not as calm as they appeared. "When I visited her last time, she was indeed in her hometown. I don't know why she came to City A."
Over this period of time, she has gradually distanced herself from her original circle.
They seemed to care, but in reality, they were all just waiting to see her make a fool of herself.
Even Qin Yunie, she must have been waiting to see her make a fool of herself, which is why she said those things last time.
"Aren't you curious why your cheap sister is here? A random house here costs several million. She doesn't seem like someone who can afford a house here. Maybe she was... taken advantage of... to be able to afford a house of this level."
Chen Yitian finished speaking with a contemptuous sneer, her eyes full of disdain and contempt. She clearly thought that Qin Yunie could never afford a house here on his own. The fact that he was here to look at houses meant that he must have been in a shameful position to be able to do so.
Qin Nian hesitated and said, "I don't think so. She doesn't seem like that kind of person."
After saying that, she frowned slightly, as if she remembered something. She opened her mouth as if to say something, but in the end, she didn't say anything.
Chen Yitian felt somewhat dissatisfied when she heard Qin Nian speak up for Qin Yu Nie, thinking that Qin Nian was just too kind, which was why she was always being bullied.
So she pulled Qin Nian aside and whispered, "You're not her, how would you know if she would? You're just too kind-hearted, that's why they bully you. Come on, let's go say hello."
After saying that, he got up and pulled Qin Nian toward Qin Yunie.
Chen Yitian deliberately walked to the opposite side of Qin Yune and said with feigned surprise, "I thought I was seeing things, but it really is you. I heard you went back to your hometown to sell boxed lunches? Can you afford a house here if you sell boxed lunches?"
After saying that, she immediately covered her mouth with the back of her hand and gave an apologetic smile. "I'm really sorry, I'm a bit blunt and I think I said something wrong. What I meant was that the house prices here might be a little expensive. If you want to look at other places, I know someone in Jingjiang Garden who can give you a discount."
Although Chen Yitian didn't mention being poor or that she didn't have the money to buy a house here, every word she said implied that Qin Yunie was just a lunchbox seller in the countryside and simply didn't have enough money to buy a house here.
They even used a house built by an unknown small developer to humiliate Qin Yune, implying that she was only fit to buy a house there.
This is also a subtle way of telling the saleswoman not to waste too much time on someone who will never buy the property.
Qin Nian quickly explained apologetically, "Sister, Yi Tian just has a sharp tongue. She didn't mean it that way."
As Qin Yunie listened to the two of them singing in unison, she slightly raised her eyelids, glanced at Qin Nian, and then her gaze fell on Chen Yitian beside her.
A hint of doubt crossed her face as she calmly asked, "Do I know you?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Yitian's expression became quite interesting. First, she opened her mouth wide in surprise, then quickly regained her composure and looked incredulous.
Her smug smile froze on her face, replaced by an undisguised astonishment and embarrassment.
She had considered that Qin Yunie would argue back, and she had also considered that she would be too embarrassed to talk back, but she never expected that Qin Yunie would respond to her with such a calm and contemptuous attitude.
This feeling made her feel like she had just acted like a clown, making a complete fool of herself in front of everyone.
A strong sense of humiliation welled up in her heart, making her very angry.
Just then, the saleswoman suddenly smiled and asked, "Is there anything I can help you with? If not, we'd like to sign the contract."
The saleswoman's words were like a thunderbolt, and not only did Chen Yitian's face turn ugly, but Qin Nian's face also darkened.
Her eyes widened in shock, and she raised her voice incredulously, asking, "What? You said who wants to sign a contract?"
The saleswoman looked at Qin Nian with a puzzled expression and replied, "Don't you know each other? Don't you know Miss Qin wants to buy a house? Since Miss Qin wants to buy a house here, naturally a contract needs to be signed."
Chen Yitian exclaimed excitedly, "How is that possible! How could she possibly afford a house here?"
Qin Nian was shocked to hear this, not expecting that Qin Yunie would actually buy the house here.
Then, as if remembering something, she looked at Qin Yune with disappointment, "Sister, if you don't have money, you can tell the family. How could you do such a thing?"
Upon hearing this, Qin Yunie asked in confusion, "Oh? I'm curious what I did?"
After her initial shock, Chen Yitian became excited, completely forgetting her earlier anger, or rather, she transformed her anger into another emotion.
She excitedly chimed in, "Qin Yune, you actually became someone's lover?"
Qin Yune asked with great interest, "Who told you that I was someone's mistress?"
Her voice was calm and firm, without the slightest hint of panic or unease.
She swept her gaze across the crowd with a cold look, a hint of confidence and composure flashing in her eyes.
Seeing this, Qin Nian became somewhat doubtful. Could it be that she had guessed wrong? Qin Yune hadn't become someone's lover?
But if that's the case, where did she get so much money to buy this house?
Could it be...?
Did your older brother give it to you?
The thought of this possibility immediately made Qin Nian's face turn ugly, and she bit her lip without saying a word for a long time.
Chen Yitian questioned, "If you didn't act as someone's secret lover, how could you possibly have so much money to buy a house here? These houses are worth at least several million. Or did you steal something from the Qin family when you left?"
Chen Yitian's words made Qin Nian also turn her gaze to Qin Yunie, pondering this possibility.
However, the Qin family didn't lose anything, and when Qin Yune left, he only carried a small box, which couldn't possibly hold anything large.
unless……
Qin Nian suddenly remembered something, and her eyes flashed.
Instead of answering, Qin Yunie looked at Qin Nian and asked, "Qin Nian, do you think so too?"
Upon hearing this, Qin Nian paused and said softly, "Sister, if it's just about selling boxed lunches, it's indeed suspicious how you got the money to buy such an expensive house in such a short time. However, it's also possible that you bought it with a loan."
