Chapter 817: Chapter 817: I’m also a truly deserving little rich woman now.

"Right," Shen Mianmian nodded as she recounted Du Teng’s ordeal, "The owner said his family had been ruined by this house, and if they can’t sell it, they might completely fall apart."

He Nan nodded and said with a serious tone, "The feng shui of that house is indeed bad; their family couldn’t suppress the house’s evils. Selling it early is a good thing."

"Big brother He, you still haven’t told me how the compensation for the house expropriation is calculated," Shen Mianmian couldn’t help but ask. To her, what she most wanted to know at the moment was how much money the house could fetch.

She was a businesswoman, and for her, if the house was expropriated at the price she bought it for, she would be considered at a loss.

After all, for this house, she had bid a price and taken a risk.

"Want to know?" He Nan looked at her with a half-smile, his gaze gradually intensifying.

Even though he hadn’t said a word, Shen Mianmian instantly understood his meaning. Her face turned red, and she planted a light kiss on his cheek like a dragonfly skimming the water.

"Is that enough?"

He Nan chuckled deeply and stopped teasing her, "It will be expropriated at the normal house price, and the price won’t change because it’s a cursed house."

His tone paused, and he continued, "Right now, the house prices in Meilin Garden are around six hundred thousand, but the expropriation price will be higher."

Shen Mianmian’s thoughts raced, her mental calculations clicking rapidly, "How much higher?"

About five hundred thousand was already a sky-high price; she hadn’t expected it to be even higher. Wouldn’t she suddenly become a little rich lady?

"Eight or nine hundred thousand, maybe even one million if you’re lucky. It’s not set in stone yet," He Nan said.

"That much?" Shen Mianmian, who was usually very composed, couldn’t keep her composure this time, "Big brother He, pinch me. I must be dreaming, right? This house can’t be worth that much."

He Nan chuckled lightly, "You’re not dreaming. The houses in Meilin Garden are indeed worth that much."

Receiving a confirmed response, Shen Mianmian could no longer contain her excitement, her eyes curving into crescent moons, "Big brother He, then am I not suddenly wealthy? I really am a little rich lady with full entitlement."

One million, in this era, is no small sum. Although she had never asked Big brother He about his total assets, she knew that getting him to cough up a million in one go would be a major ordeal.

She had merely bought a house, and in just a month or two, it was going to appreciate so many times over; it was unbelievable.

He Nan affectionately pinched her cheek, "Little rich lady, what do you plan to do with this million?"

"Buy a house," Shen Mianmian answered without hesitation, "Big brother He, does the owner of the courtyard house where I’m currently living intend to sell it? The house has a nice environment, and I quite like it. If possible, I’d like to buy it."

If she planned to settle down in Beijing in the future, she would definitely need to buy a house for herself. She liked this place a lot, and with enough money in hand, she could afford to buy it as a permanent residence.

"You like it here?" He Nan’s eyes were full of mirth, "If you like it, then we’ll live here from now on."

Shen Mianmian immediately understood his implication, surprised, "Big brother He, have you already bought this place?"

"Mhm," He Nan nodded and spoke softly, "I can’t have you living a nomadic life. The environment here is nice, so I bought it. If you don’t like it here, we can buy another place in the future that suits your tastes. But since you like it, from now on, we’ll live here."
