The four people arrived at the entrance of the community, and after exchanging a few pleasantries, Qiang Xin took a taxi and left.

Yue Xiaohu and Jun Feifei clearly seemed tempted.

Yue Xiaohu urged, "I think this place isn't bad, like he said, it really feels like fate. Why not just decide now? Who knows when we'll see him again."

Originally, he was the most reluctant among the four-person house-buying group, but now he's become an advocate.

This shows how deeply ingrained the concept of buying a house and settling down is in every Chinese person's heart; it's almost a genetic trait that can't be eradicated.

Yue Xingxing helplessly held her forehead, "Xiaohu, when you go out, don't say you're my brother, you're acting so foolishly..."

Jun Feifei could see it too, "The way he said it was obviously just to make us decide quickly, like how malls always say it's the last-day sale, it's another sales tactic."

Yue Xiaohu scratched his head naively, "Huh? Really?"

He's simply the type whose brain is all muscle—developed limbs, but a simple mind.

So easy to fool!

Yue Xingxing asked him, "Didn't you notice something strange about this neighborhood?"

Now not only Yue Xiaohu, but Jun Feifei also asked suspiciously, "Strange? How so?"

Yue Xingxing spread her hands, "Qingqing, you explain it to them."

Yue Qingqing chuckled, "Have you noticed how quiet this neighborhood is?"

With Yue Qingqing's words, only then did Yue Xiaohu and Jun Feifei feel something was amiss.

Normally, in any residential area around dinner time, there would be the aromas of meals wafting everywhere; at the very least, an entire building would be brightly lit.

But this neighborhood was shrouded in an eerie silence, the streetlights outside were broken, and it was also dark inside the neighborhood.

Only the sound-activated lights in the corridor lit up when they went upstairs.

Plus, the trash bins in this community seemed unusually clean.

Earlier, Jun Feifei thought maybe the property management here was just better, but thinking again now, it's likely that nobody lives here at all.

Yue Xingxing snorted, "There must be some issues with this community. I think that Qiang Xin is a local. He probably heard from our accents that we're not from around here, so he's deliberately taking advantage of us for being clueless, urging us to decide by the day after tomorrow just to prevent us from uncovering anything."

She realized that to Qiang Xin, the four of them were just students, synonymous with easy targets.

Humph!

Trying to fool us, how shameless.

There are people who specifically scam students.

"Forget it. Let's just chalk it up to experience and Xiaohu, be smart next time and don't get scammed," Yue Xingxing glanced at her dejected brother and reached out to pat him on the shoulder, "Besides, we didn't leave empty-handed today. Let's keep with our original direction for finding a place."

Yue Xiaohu nodded, "Sister's right."

Jun Feifei sighed, "Sigh, I didn't think it was so tricky here. If I weren't with you guys, I might have actually asked my family for money to buy a house here and would've been duped."

At this moment, Yue Qingqing suddenly laughed.

"Why not just buy it then?"

Yue Xingxing dug at her ear, "Qingqing?"

Yue Qingqing turned, looking at the Qi Fortune enveloping the neighborhood.

"There might be problems with these houses, but I think it's a good opportunity."

"Compared to the property prices nearby, the price here is indeed much lower. Isn't it actually a good deal to buy it?"

Yue Xingxing finally understood she didn't mishear, shaking her sister's shoulders.

"Qingqing, wake up. The water supply's been cut off, it's obvious nobody lives here. What's the point of buying it?"

"But we're only in our freshman year; we still have three years until graduation. Something might turn around during that time."

Moreover, Yue Qingqing could feel that this turnaround would come soon.
