That old lady is so fierce!
Mu Xiaocheng couldn't help but swallow.
Chi Yan cast a pitiful, pleading look at Mu Xiaocheng and winked at her.
Mu Xiaocheng walked over to Chi Yan and said with a sweet smile, "Auntie, we really want to buy this house."
“This house is their family’s old house, their foundation. That’s why he’s so determined to buy it back.”
"Don't let his unreliable appearance fool you, he's sincere. Please help us out, okay?"
The older woman stood in the courtyard, looking at Mu Xiaocheng with a hint of surprise in her expression.
This little girl looks a lot like someone.
She shook her head. These days, all pretty young girls look the same; they're probably all the result of plastic surgery.
“I’ve made it very clear: this house is not for sale. Go back to where you came from! Don’t come back.”
The woman's voice was loud, and she had a fierce and menacing look, leaving no room for negotiation.
Mu Xiaocheng nudged Chi Yan next to her. Chi Yan looked utterly dejected and continued, "Auntie, please have mercy on us, the Chi family..."
"Are you coming or not? If you're not coming, I'm unleashing the dogs!"
The older woman forcefully interrupted Chi Yan, turned and went into the house, coming out with a dog leash in one hand.
Two large wolfhounds barked and pounced straight at Mu Xiaocheng and Chi Yan.
Mu Xiaocheng shrugged: "The talks have broken down."
After saying that, he turned and left.
Chi Yan sighed helplessly, glared at the big wolfhound, and quickly chased after it.
The older woman frowned as she watched the two people leave.
He muttered to himself, "It really does look a bit like it."
—
Mu Xiaocheng and Chi Yan sat in the car. Chi Yan looked a little dejected and sighed heavily, "Sister-in-law, did you see that? That old woman is so fierce, there's no room for negotiation. What are we going to do?"
"Aren't you supposed to be pretty capable? Why don't you do some research?"
Mu Xiaocheng's words were like a wake-up call, making Chi Yan realize the truth immediately.
The woman was so adamant about not selling even at a high price, which means the house must have some important meaning for her.
Now all we can do is check.
Mu Xiaocheng rested her chin on her hand and looked out of the car.
Why did that house seem somewhat familiar to her?
She was certain she had never been here before.
But it seems like I've seen it somewhere before.
Where exactly is it?
Seeing that Mu Xiaocheng remained silent, Chi Yan spoke up again, "Sister-in-law, my brother is teaching at school today, so he probably won't be back for lunch. How about we go out to eat?"
Mu Xiaocheng gave him a long, quiet look.
He refused, saying, "Let's skip it today. I'm afraid you didn't bring enough money."
Chi Yan: "..."
You make it sound like you could eat a mountain of gold.
"Please drop me off at the entrance of Yunnan University later."
Hearing Mu Xiaocheng say that, Chi Yan's eyes lit up, and he said in surprise, "Are you going to pick up my brother from get off work?"
"What a load of crap."
"I'm going to get something."
Mu Xiaocheng immediately rejected the idea, her bright eyes flickering.
Chi Yan smacked her lips, then sighed and said, "My poor Shen-ge, when will he ever be worthy of having such a beautiful, capable, and intelligent fairy like you, sister-in-law!"
Mu Xiaocheng: "..."
Ha, this kid's got a good tongue.
She was speechless.
Mu Xiaocheng ignored him, turned her face away, and looked out the window.
Actually, there's nothing you need to bring to school.
She just wanted to go and see.
She wanted to see how Teacher Ji taught her students.
She'll just take a quick look and come right back.
Just one glance.
