Chapter 1766: A Chance Encounter

~4 min read 733 words

Zhang Yurong originally wanted to say that she would take good care of her parents-in-law in the future, but she realized that asking such a thing was forcing her.

Liu Chuxue naturally understood her meaning: "Sister Yurong, rest assured, I understand what you mean."

Knowing Zhang Yurong's heart was not at peace, and that the couple was worried about the triplets in the family compound, they did not stay long: "Sister Yurong, live here with peace of mind; we will leave now."

Zhang Yurong said some words of thanks before seeing them out.

Fu Yan Cheng and Liu Chuxue hardly spoke the entire way.

On their way, they stopped at the First Machinery Ministry to pick up several translation documents before preparing to leave for the family compound.

However, when they reached the intersection, they saw a group of people fighting there.

The car could not pass for a while, so the two of them simply got out to watch the commotion.

From the chatter of those people, they learned that the original owner of the house had returned to the city, and the authorities were now returning the house to its original owner, but the several households living there refused to move no matter what, and this issue had already caused several disturbances.

Especially because a family of rascals lived there; once they took the lead, the other households wanted to follow and gain some benefits.

Today was another unreasonable day.

It was only when the street committee and public security personnel arrived that the fighting was stopped, but the public security had already warned them several times to move out as soon as possible; yet these people agreed well enough at the time, but as soon as the officers left, they acted as if nothing had happened, doing exactly as they pleased.

This time was no different; after the public security personnel arrived and offered some persuasion, they dispersed the onlookers and then withdrew.

The original owner's family was left alone there, filled with indignation.

Just as Liu Chuxue and the others were about to leave, they heard one of them say: "We won't take back this house."

"What nonsense are you talking? This is our Zhao family's house; why wouldn't we take it back?"

"What I mean is, rather than continuing like this, we might as well sell the house."

"You speak nicely, but we haven't even taken the house back yet; who would dare to take over this house?"

"If we sell it cheaply, someone will definitely want it."

"I agree with this too; rather than dragging on like this forever, we might as well sell it, take the money, and buy new property; we simply cannot afford to drag this out any longer."

Liu Chuxue asked Fu Yan Cheng to drive the car while she walked over to that family: "Excuse me, sorry to disturb you."

Those people looked at her alertly: "What do you want?"

Liu Chuxue felt a bit embarrassed: "Um, my hearing is naturally a bit better than others', and I accidentally overheard your conversation just now. If you truly intend to sell, and if the price is right, I might be willing to take it over."

An older man among them frowned and looked at Liu Chuxue: "You saw the situation with this house just now; the reason we want to sell is that the people currently living in the courtyard are too difficult to deal with. You..."

Liu Chuxue naturally understood his meaning: "Rest assured, I understood clearly just now; I am not afraid of trouble. As long as the price is right, I will consider it."

The location was truly excellent, and she had roughly checked it out just now; it was a two-courtyard residence facing two streets. Later, she could convert the house into shops and rent them out, simply collecting the rent herself.

Upon hearing Liu Chuxue's words, that family exchanged glances, and then the same man spoke again: "How about we find a place to sit and discuss? After all, this is no small matter."

Liu Chuxue naturally would not refuse: "Fine, where do you suggest we go?"

The man thought for a moment: "How about the small square ahead? There is a pavilion over there; let's go there to talk."

Liu Chuxue gave Fu Yan Cheng a hand signal, then followed these people toward the place they mentioned.
