In a small reception room of the Eastern Real Estate Trading Center, a transaction involving a small suburban villa was taking place.
The buyer and seller, under the witness of an agent, were confirming the final terms, about to pay the deposit and sign the contract.
At that moment, "Bang!" The door was pushed open heavily.
The people inside looked displeased towards the person at the door, only to see a young girl in a white T-shirt and denim shorts standing there, panting heavily and shouting, "Don’t sell to him!"
Upon hearing her shocking words, the people inside were initially stunned, then their faces full of anger as they glared at the girl.
No matter how pretty the girl was, blocking their interests was unforgivable.
"Wanwan, what do you want? What are you doing here? Are you crazy?" Lin Wanwan’s aunt, Xie Yuanying, frowned as she looked disdainfully at Lin Wanwan with her tea-colored eyes.
The real estate agent stood up, about to push Lin Wanwan out: "Miss, please don’t cause trouble."
Lin Wanwan pushed him aside and looked at her uncle Lin Zhantian sitting nearby, quickly explaining the situation: "Uncle, don’t sell the house to outsiders, sell it to me! I want to buy it!"
"You want to buy? Do you have money?" Lin Zhantian looked at her displeased, "There was no fuss when moving out, but now you’re causing trouble when the contract is about to be signed? Are you serious?"
Lin Wanwan took a deep breath, closed the door, and said calmly, "Uncle, I’m not here to make trouble, I really want to buy it. I’ve prepared 5.6 million and I can pay in full."
Xie Yuanying and Lin Zhantian were shocked and questioned in unison: "Pay in full? Where did you get so much money? Did the old man leave you money?"
"This is money I found a way to gather myself. How many inheritances and savings my grandparents left, didn’t uncle and aunt already count it? Are you not aware?" Feeling their thieving eyes on her, Lin Wanwan frowned slightly.
Even though they were her uncle and aunt, they shouldn’t think about slandering her.
"Then where did you get so much money?" Lin Zhantian stood up, staring at Lin Wanwan.
Lin Wanwan replied confidently, "This is my business, uncle. Now you want to sell the house, I want to buy it."
The buyer, who had been watching from the sidelines, stood up angrily: "What does this mean? We agreed on 5.58 million, and now your whole family wants to raise the price at the last minute and cause this commotion?"
The house was listed at 5.6 million by the agent, but actually, 20,000 had been cut down and the parties agreed on 5.58 million.
Lin Zhantian and Xie Yuanying hurriedly explained, "No no no, that’s not the case, we don’t mind her, we’ll do our agreement."
Seeing that they were really going to ignore her and sign the contract, Lin Wanwan stepped forward, slapped a bank card on the table, and stared at Lin Zhantian word by word: "Uncle, Aunt! My residency is still registered with the house! If you don’t sell it to me, I will never cooperate with you to move the residency! This content belongs to novel⦿fire.net
Maybe you might win the legal battle in the end, but please think, how much time are you willing to spend in the country fighting with me in court? Besides, during the demolition, my account had a share too, I just didn’t want to fight for it, don’t force me."
Her words hit the nail on the head, making Lin Zhantian and Xie Yuanying, who were eager to quickly deal with domestic affairs and return to the United States, hesitate.
Xie Yuanying uncertainly confirmed again: "You really have money to buy?"
Lin Wanwan nodded firmly: "Not stealing, not robbing, it’s absolutely true! 5.58 million, right? Pay in full!"
Xie Yuanying and Lin Zhantian exchanged glances, then the former sighed and said, "Alright, if you have the money, it’s the same selling to you."
The agent, who was about to make a big commission from a soon-to-be-completed transaction, saw the duck in hand about to fly away, and immediately his anger surged, ready to push someone: "What is going on with you guys? Who does business ? Are you just playing with me?"
The buyer sided with the agent, "Exactly! We took the time to come here, only to watch your family drama?"
Lin Wanwan grabbed the agent’s wrist that was pushing towards her and said coldly, "Business is business, you’re not thinking of hitting, are you?"
"My hand! It’s breaking, going to break!"
The agent, with his wrist grasped, his face instantly turned red, how could this seemingly fragile young woman have such strength?!
Lin Wanwan released his hand and said to him, "You can help us with the transfer procedures, and I’ll still pay you a reasonable fee in full."
What else could the agent do? He was innocent too — the fat duck mouth became duck wings! But it’s better than having nothing left, so he had to accept.
As for the buyer, they were even unluckier than the agent, but when Lin Wanwan offered to pay their loss-of-work expenses for the day, they had no way to continue making trouble.
After all, no contract was signed, the sale was only a verbal agreement; is it not allowed for the sellers to temporarily change their minds? Besides, today was just for the deposit, who could compete with a family who are relatives, paying full in cash, and having demolition dispute weight!
Any agreement not put on paper doesn’t amount to anything.
Stepping out of Eastern Real Estate, Lin Wanwan held her contract, letting out a huge sigh of relief. She had finally preserved the traces left by her grandparents, and kept her warmth of the past.
Lin Zhantian and Xie Yuanying also walked out shortly after, smiling and said, "Shall we have dinner together?"
Lin Wanwan tilted her head, glanced at them, shook her head, and laughed, "Sorry, I already have plans."
With that, she waved her hand and strode away.
"Old Lin, where did such a young girl who just graduated a year ago get so much money? She couldn’t have done something shady, could she? Your niece, she’s quite a beauty." Xie Yuanying speculated maliciously as she watched Lin Wanwan’s receding figure.
Lin Zhantian pondered for a while, not really thinking Lin Wanwan would do anything bad. To be honest, even if she found a rich man to be a mistress, he wouldn’t care. Surviving in America isn’t easy, and he only contacts his parents over the phone. Why would he care about his deceased sister’s daughter?
He was just thinking if the old couple left behind any treasures valuable enough that Lin Wanwan picked up that he wasn’t aware of, but after a long time pondering, he found nothing.
When he was a kid, before the family was demolished, they were poor, and it was through studying hard that he changed his fate. Later, the demolition funds became his tuition for studying in the U.S. How could there possibly be any valuable treasures left hidden?
"Stop overthinking, she’s paying full; the process will be quick. Once the transfer is complete, we head back to the United States." Lin Zhantian withdrew his thoughts and said to Xie Yuanying.
Meanwhile, Lin Wanwan, holding the house purchase contract, sat in a ride-hailing car with tears streaming down her face.
