Chapter 1809

After returning to the hotel.

Ning Chen took out his phone, opened WeChat, and transferred 2,000 yuan to Sister Wang.

When he had been locked up in the detention center a couple of days ago, Sister Wang had still paid him his wages.

Although Sister Wang said there was no need to pay, Ning Chen insisted on giving the money. After all, he would still be working for her in the future.

After handling this matter, as Ning Chen lay on the bed preparing to rest, his heart suddenly skipped a beat.

A bad premonition.

He took out his phone and indeed saw a message from Sister Wang: someone wanted to book the hotel for a wedding and asked if Ning Chen would take the job. Ning Chen felt a surge of joy; this order could earn a lot! Moreover, hotels generally offer greater profit margins.

However.

Ning Chen immediately found himself in a dilemma.

Although he had graduated, he still had many assignments to deal with, especially needing to avenge his parents, so he simply had no time to work.

After pondering for a moment, he replied: "Sister Wang, let Sun Lin take this order. I'm swamped these days and really can't spare the time."

After sending the message, Ning Chen lay on the bed and sighed heavily.

Troublesome.

Right now, he had less than 10,000 yuan in hand, which was far from enough for a down payment on a house.

Troublesome.

A moment later.

Sister Wang sent a message saying she had already agreed to someone else, but she would leave a 1,000 yuan bonus for Ning Chen.

"Then I thank you, Sister Wang," Ning Chen said, somewhat moved.

Having a sister like that is truly wonderful.

Over the next week and more, Ning Chen searched for housing listings all over Dongjiang City while keeping an eye on the chat messages in the class group, checking who wanted to sell a house so he could act quickly.

To his slight disappointment, although many classmates in the group talked about houses, no one wanted to sell.

After turning over three consecutive weekends, Ning Chen had made no progress.

"Looks like I'll have to use unconventional means," Ning Chen sighed inwardly.

Immediately.

After adding a few female classmates on WeChat through the class group, he set his sights on Zhu Meng.

Zhu Meng was the most beautiful girl in the class, had a great figure, and was a wealthy woman who owned a studio apartment in Dongjiang City.

After adding Zhu Meng, Ning Chen had to summon immense willpower to resist the urge to block her.

For the sake of a house down payment, he had to bow to reality.

After adding Zhu Meng, after some initial pleasantries and formalities, Ning Chen proposed wanting to see her house.

Zhu Meng hesitated for a few seconds, then sent a video. The video first showed an aerial panoramic view of downtown Dongjiang City, then gradually zoomed in on a building, after which the camera entered through Congzheng Sect and began rotating around, shooting from various angles like a tour guide.

After viewing the house, Ning Chen was tempted. The house not only had an excellent location but was also fully furnished with high-end decoration, complete with all kinds of furniture and appliances, ready for immediate move-in.

Most importantly, the house, which had been lived in for only one year, was being sold at half price—a perfect opportunity to buy at the bottom! If he couldn't find a better house to move into later, so be it; if he did find a better one, he could always sell this one and make a profit.
