In theory, the current situation is turning for the better, unexpected but welcome.

But after recent events, Qiang Xin couldn't afford to underestimate them anymore.

These students are playing dumb, while actually being quite shrewd, deliberately tricking him.

If he had any dignity, he'd turn his back and leave now.

But Qiang Xin is both conniving and shameless; otherwise, he wouldn't have even deceived his own relatives back then.

Seeing a glimmer of hope now, he sits down obediently again.

"Just give me a clear answer. If you're buying, let's discuss the price; if not, stop wasting time, I'll admit defeat and leave."

Yue Xingxing snorted, "Don't act like you're so grieved. Weren't you planning to cheat us just because we're outsiders and students? Didn't you even intend to get physical just now?"

Qiang Xin glanced at the fierce-looking Yue Xiaohu and hurriedly explained.

"I wouldn't dare say that, we're all civilized people here, why resort to violence? The deal relies entirely on voluntary agreement."

"It relies on voluntary agreement, but it has to be based on transparent information from both sides. Even if you trick us into buying the house today, if we find out we've been cheated later, we can still take it to court."

After hearing Yue Qingqing's words, Qiang Xin secretly sneered.

Thinking, if you want to sue me, you'll have to find me first.

Beijing is so big, he can't believe that by changing his phone number, he'd run into them again among the vast populace.

"So what's your intention now?"

Yue Xingxing ordered the waiter to bring Qiang Xin a cup of tea, "Chrysanthemum tea, for cooling down, let's take our time to talk."

Qiang Xin felt that the girl's words had hidden meanings, but educated people insult without using profanities. He could only grimace and drink a sip from the cup.

Yue Qingqing, taking the lead, said: "We have some money now; buying these houses is an investment for us. Though uninhabitable now, perhaps they will be in a few years, it's a bit of a gamble."

Qiang Xin disdained this in his heart, if this ghost place were habitable, it wouldn't have been vacant for so many years.

These students are too naive.

Don't know whether to call them smart or silly.

Moreover, he's a local Beijing insider who more or less knows a bit of information.

Beijing's key development area isn't here; the business district is moving eastward, making this area less valuable for investment.

Yet Qiang Xin wouldn't voice any of this; instead he enjoyed watching the people opposite him act smart.

He even agreed verbally, "You're right. I initially considered the investment value of this area, but now I'm really caught in business troubles, that I won't lie about, so I can only sell the house."

"Of course, the price won't be high. For friendship's sake."

Even Yue Xingxing had to admit Qiang Xin's shamelessness, able to say such grandiose words even at this point.

But arguing with someone like him was pointless; she straightforwardly said: "Just name your price. If we can accept it, we'll buy; if not, forget it."

Qiang Xin thought for a moment and quoted a new number.

This time the price was very close to what he had originally paid for the house.

"In years past, I can show you the invoice for my purchase. After so many years, Beijing's house prices have already surged, isn't this price quite reasonable?"

Jun Feifei rolled her eyes, "Reasonable my ass! Water and electricity aren't even connected here, people can't live in, do you think we don't know how much the apartment prices have dropped? Still trying to delude us."

Qiang Xin hadn't expected them to find out even that, and could only shrug shamelessly.

"It's business, I name a price, you counteroffer, otherwise you tell me a price."

Yue Qingqing wrote a number on paper for Qiang Xin.

This number was calculated by Second Senior Brother this morning.

"Just this price, if it's not sold, then fine, we won't increase it by even a penny."
