Chapter 809: Chapter 809: Meeting 3

"Don’t worry, if I buy the house and something happens, I won’t involve you," Shen Mianmian immediately stated her position, then added, "Others say that only a person with a strong character can suppress such a house, and I want to see for myself."

Seeing that Shen Mianmian was not afraid at all, Du Teng admired her but also felt that she was fearless due to ignorance. Those who hadn’t been deeply harmed thought it was nothing serious, but only he knew how much his family had suffered because of that house.

After thinking it over, he still kindly reminded her, "Young lady, even if you buy this house now, it’s not fit for living in. It must be renovated first. If you plan to live in it after purchasing, you should see if anything happens during the renovation. If something does happen, you must not move in. If nothing happens, you may try living there and see how it goes. If nothing occurs, that’s fine, but if there’s anything amiss, you must not continue to stay there—it really could cost someone their life."

"Alright."

Shen Mianmian had no intention of moving in since she cherished her life more than anyone and didn’t think she had multiple lives to spare. Therefore, she certainly wouldn’t live in a house known for bad feng shui.

However, she didn’t mention her plans for the house’s appreciation in value to anyone.

The three of them had a meal and discussed the house further. In the end, they finalized the deal for seventy-eight thousand yuan. The man felt as if a massive weight had been lifted from his shoulders, and he was so relieved his eyes reddened with emotion.

Over the years, their family had truly suffered immensely because of that house.

Shen Mianmian took a couple of days off to complete the transfer of ownership. Whether by coincidence or not, on her way back to school after finishing the procedures, she was bumped by a bicycle. Thankfully, she only suffered a minor scrape.

"It’s over, it’s all over. You’ve been in Beijing for half a year without any issues, but now, just after buying the house, you’re injured. Could it be a problem with the house?" Yang Xiaoxi made a mountain out of a molehill, her face full of worry, more scared than Shen Mianmian herself.

Shen Mianmian rolled her eyes, "Stop scaring yourself. Anyone who didn’t know better would think I’m about to die."

"You’re not far from it," Yang Xiaoxi exaggeratedly said.

Shen Mianmian’s mouth twitched, entirely speechless.

The more Yang Xiaoxi thought about it, the more frightened she became. She even specifically went to Cheng Feiyang’s class to scold him. The guy was just too malicious, teaming up with Cheng Xining to do such a thing. Were they trying to take Mianmian’s life?

Cheng Feiyang felt it was unfair, "Yang Xiaoxi, haven’t I reminded you many times not to buy that house? It was Shen Mianmian who stubbornly wanted to show off by buying it. And now you’re blaming me?"

Women really are unreasonable.

"You two were just certain that Mianmian would buy it because of the house’s low price. If you truly didn’t want Mianmian to buy it, why did you even tell her about it?" Those two siblings purposely played good cop, bad cop.

Cheng Feiyang was speechless and after a long pause, he managed to squeeze out, "You’re just a crazy woman, illogical."

Thanks to Yang Xiaoxi’s commotion, the news of Shen Mianmian buying a haunted house had spread throughout the school, and everyone knew that something had happened to her just after she purchased the property.

The rumors became more and more sinister, with some even saying that Shen Mianmian was in the hospital, barely clinging to life.

Shen Mianmian simply ignored it all, acting as if she hadn’t heard, letting the rumors run wild.

When Lu Siyuan heard the news, he confronted her directly on the way home from school, "Shen Mianmian, have you gone mad or been deceived? Buying a haunted house? You didn’t even tell me about such a big deal?"

Lately, he had been quite busy, which is why he hadn’t sought out Shen Mianmian. Unexpectedly, during his absence, she had bought a haunted house.
