After Peking University started the new semester, Ye Weiwei immediately took a long leave of absence.
Because she got full marks in all subjects in her final exams last semester, including the languages she minored in, she was able to get this leave very easily.
As soon as she received the leave slip, Ye Weiwei boarded a plane heading south and flew directly to Haishi.
My cousin Zhang Juncheng called me a couple of days ago to say that he had found several properties for me in Shanghai and asked me to take a look when I had time. However, he called again the next day to say that the other party was in a hurry to sell and go abroad, so this time she was going to buy the houses.
As soon as Ye Weiwei got off the plane, she saw her older cousin waiting outside, leaning against the car door smoking. When he saw her, he quickly threw away his cigarette, rubbed his hands together, and hurried over to greet her. While taking her suitcase, he asked with concern, "Is the course at Peking University too demanding? You look thinner than usual. Or are your naughty kids at home hard to take care of? Why don't you send them here and I'll look after them for a while?"
He'll definitely discipline those little guys until they're completely obedient, so they won't dare to misbehave and tire out their little sister.
Ye Weiwei; ...
Where has she lost weight?
You've clearly gained weight over the Lunar New Year holidays, haven't you?
Is this what people mean when they say, "There's a kind of thinness that only your brother thinks you've lost weight"?
Ye Weiwei chuckled, then thought of how her younger relatives had clamored to come along to visit their eldest and second cousins when she was about to come to Haishi, and couldn't help but shed a tear of sympathy for them.
They really should see the true face of their beloved great-uncle.
Ye Weiwei wisely avoided the conversation, glancing at the car next to her older cousin, "Where did this car come from?"
Zhang Juncheng knew she was changing the subject, so he flicked her head in annoyance and then patted the car next to him. "I borrowed it from a friend! My little sister is coming, so we have to go all out."
He couldn't bear to see his little sister ride his old bicycle back home, enduring a bumpy ride and getting covered in dust.
Ye Weiwei directly exposed her cousin's lie: "Are you sure it was borrowed and not stolen?"
The car is shiny and new; even the tires are clean with only a thin layer of dust on them, showing how much the owner takes care of it.
Zhang Juncheng couldn't help but flick Ye Weiwei's head again, "It's best to keep it to yourself, it won't be pretty if you say it out loud!"
Ye Weiwei shrugged playfully.
After the two got into the car, Zhang Juncheng's cautious driving and the snail-paced speed made Ye Weiwei inwardly grumble.
"Big cousin, is this car even going to make it? If I'd known it would be this slow, I would have just walked back."
Zhang Juncheng said irritably, "Who am I doing all this for? It's all because Sun Yi said he would break up with me if his precious car got even a scratch! I went through so much trouble last night to snatch the car keys back, and this morning when we were about to leave, that guy was clinging to his car wheel and wouldn't let go! If I hurt his precious car, he really would kill me."
Ye Weiwei: ……
I'm speechless!
However, she could also tell that her cousin was not only driving so slowly because of his friend's request, but also because he himself really liked cars and enjoyed the driving process.
Ye Weiwei glanced at her cousin's unconsciously upturned lips, her eyes flickering.
She has more than a dozen old cars sitting idle in her online space. Instead of letting them gather dust, she decided to give them to people who like them, which would be a way to give them their value.
Zhang Juncheng, who was happily gripping the steering wheel, was unaware that he was about to be showered with a luxurious gift package. While driving, he didn't forget to talk to Ye Weiwei about the properties.
"There are three properties in total. One of them has two garden villas like the ones you mentioned. They are both owned by the same seller, but one of the houses is in such bad shape that it would require major repairs if you wanted to live in it. The seller is also stubborn and insists on buying both of them at once. Let's go take a look at this one today. If you don't like it, we'll go look at the others."
There are many properties being returned in Shanghai now, and quite a few properties are being bought and sold. He has a good friend who works at the housing management office and has inside information, so it's not difficult to buy a good house.
Ye Weiwei: "Okay! I'll do whatever you say."
Zhang Juncheng glanced at the time on his watch, then at Ye Weiwei, and said, "How about we go eat first, and then look at houses after we eat?"
His younger sister just flew over and went back without even catching her breath; it must have been too tiring for her.
Ye Weiwei shook her head: "No need. That person isn't in a hurry to go abroad, so let's not keep them waiting. Besides, things might change if we delay. Who knows if someone else has the same eye for that place as me? If someone else gets it, wouldn't I have made this trip for nothing?"
Zhang Juncheng agreed: "Okay then."
The person selling the house was named Cheng Hao. He was quite tall and thin, and when the wind blew, his clothes seemed to sway and could be blown away at any moment.
Although he wore glasses and looked quite refined, Ye Weiwei could easily tell from his calloused hands and the weariness in his eyes that he had experienced a difficult past.
Perhaps it was because too many people had come to see the house recently. Cheng Hao looked at Ye Weiwei and Zhang Juncheng, who, although smiling, looked tired and anxious. However, Zhang Juncheng was always smiling, so Cheng Hao couldn't vent his frustration. He could only say listlessly, "The house price won't be lowered. If you're here to bargain, please leave."
Zhang Juncheng looked at Ye Weiwei. Just as Ye Weiwei was about to speak, someone mocked, "Hey Cheng, you really don't know what's good for you. It's your good fortune that our boss Yao took a liking to your shabby house. You dare to sell your shabby house together with another one? Don't you know your background? Haven't you learned your lesson from a few years ago? You still dare to play the capitalist game!"
"Hurry up and come with us to complete the transfer of ownership, otherwise, with this dilapidated house of yours, as long as our boss Yao is around, don't even think about selling it!"
Ye Weiwei looked at the person who suddenly appeared, narrowed her eyes at his sleazy, upside-down appearance, and then raised an eyebrow at the man sitting in the black car behind him.
Wow!
What a coincidence!
I even ran into an acquaintance while buying a house!
Ye Weiwei said sarcastically to the people in the car, "Yao Qingchuan! Hehe!"
You've taken off your clothes and completely exposed your true nature, letting loose and being yourself?
Look at you, you lackey! Aren't you Yao family members the ones who love to boast about being superior city people and love to use terms like "quality" and "upbringing" to judge others?
Why aren't you installing it anymore?
"They even resort to coercion to buy a house! If you don't have money, don't try to act all high and mighty. It's truly shameful!"
Yao Qingchuan watched as Ye Weiwei's veins bulged, and he forced out three words through gritted teeth: "Ye! Wei! Wei!"
