Chapter 828: Chapter 828 Going to Meilin Garden 1

"I’ve got nothing scheduled for the afternoon, let’s go!"

He Nan nonchalantly took her hand, declaring his sovereignty through actions rather than words.

Lu Siyuan snorted silently to himself, finding the sight of them holding hands extremely irksome, while a hint of a smile appeared in the old Mr. He’s eyes, seeing in his grandson a reflection of his younger self.

When they reached the intersection, He Nan hailed a taxi and sent Mr. He on his way.

Before getting into the cab, Mr. He made a point of reminding the girls, "Remember our appointment for next week."

After the taxi had driven off, He Nan raised an eyebrow and asked, "What appointment?"

"Grandpa invited me and Xiaoxi to dinner at his house." It wasn’t a secret, so Shen Mianmian didn’t hide it.

He Nan’s gaze flickered, and he nodded slightly, saying, "If he has the heart to invite you, then you should go!"

She had assumed he would object, but he had agreed so readily. Shen Mianmian was a bit surprised, yet at the same time, she felt relieved. Since Big Brother He approved of their visit, it meant he also felt that Grandpa was a person they could get along with.

Ruan Yiqian also began to make his own calculations. If they were dining at Mr. He’s house next week, perhaps he should also take the time to visit him?

Listening to their intermittent conversation, Lu Siyuan felt a bit uncomfortable but didn’t say anything. After all, He Nan was now Shen Mianmian’s official boyfriend. Saying too much would just make him look bad.

The group took two cars and quickly arrived at Meilin Garden. As soon as he stepped out of the car, Lu Siyuan shuddered, his expression suddenly turning serious. The place did feel quite gloomy; he had never felt such a strong presence of negative energy anywhere before, not even in graveyards.

"It’s a good thing you’re not planning to live here. The negative energy is too strong in this place. Even if there’s nothing supernatural occurring, it’s not good for people to stay here for long."

Although he wasn’t very knowledgeable about feng shui, he was aware that poorly constructed houses could negatively impact one’s health. Over time, this could lead to mental problems, such as hallucinations.

And with the knowledge that many people had died here, those with low psychological defenses might start imagining ghosts and other spirits.

"Yeah," Shen Mianmian nodded, saying, "The negative energy here is indeed strong. I felt it the first time I came. But if it weren’t for the bad feng shui and the heavy negative energy, I couldn’t have afforded it."

In a place like Beijing, where every inch of land is worth its weight in gold, buying such a house with her modest assets was nearly impossible.

She was content with purchasing the house and didn’t think much of the other aspects.

Ruan Yiqian’s brows tightened as he listened to their conversation. "Mianmian, did you buy this house?"

Being a native of Beijing, he was well aware of the house’s dark history, certainly no less so than He Nan, and thus understood the sinister reputation of the house. Hearing that Shen Mianmian had bought it, his complexion immediately darkened.

"I did," Shen Mianmian nodded.

"Xiaonan, you know better than anyone about this house. Why didn’t you stop her?" Ruan Yiqian thought Shen Mianmian had been duped into buying it.

It was understandable that Mianmian was unaware of the house’s history, but it was He Nan’s problem that he knew yet didn’t stop Shen Mianmian from buying it.

Shen Mianmian found Ruan Yiqian’s reaction a bit strange, but she still defended He Nan, saying, "Big Brother He was away on a business trip. He didn’t know when I bought the house."

"Exactly," Yang Xiaoxi took the opportunity to stand up for Shen Mianmian, "It was your cousin who brought Mianmian to see the house. Why aren’t you blaming her?"
