Fang Mo was silent. He understood the meaning of this rather interesting look. Even Ye Shuang caught it.
Fang Mo was silent for a half a minute before explaining, ”Miss Ye is really my friend's fiancé; she has no dealings with any people around me.”
Knowing that Ye Shuang valued this opportunity greatly, Fang Mo helped her out. ”After all, Mrs. Chen, you're going to sell this apartment. Instead of waiting for the real estate agent to find a buyer, why not give me face and sell it to my friend? It's convenient for you and can help Miss Ye save some expenses.”
Mrs. Chen was slowly convinced. Fang Mo had stated everything clearly, so the woman's identity probably wasn't as complicated as she had thought. After all, the girl did point out her despicable husband's ploy; she didn't have to do that if she was there to side with Mr. Chen.
Ye Shuang added, ”That's right, Sister Chen. Yes, I'm profiting off your inconvenience, but you want this thing to wrap up as soon as possible, right? We both stand to gain from this arrangement.”
Mr. Chen finally lost his patience. Ignoring the fact that his wife was standing right there, he wouldn't be able to sleep that night if he didn't say something to this annoying woman. ”Why should I let you profit off my house‽”
”Your house or your little vixen's house‽” Ye Shuang didn't care about making an enemy. After all, it was obvious that she had to find a side to lean toward, and of course, she aligned herself with Mrs. Chen.
That was the push Mrs. Chen needed. ”Chen He, you shut up! Come with me, I'm selling you this house; we'll go to the bank right now!”
Fang Mo sighed in relief. This result was not bad. At least he extricated himself safely from the conflict, and Mrs. Chen didn't seem to take any offense toward him. Then, he noticed Ye Shuang had been staring at him with her wide eyes.
”…What's wrong?” Fang Mo whispered.
Ye Shuang laughed awkwardly. ”Brother Fang, we haven't been paid for the advertisement yet…”
In other words, she couldn't produce the down payment.
”…”
”I mean, can you pay me in advanced‽”
Just as Ye Shuang was pleading with Fang Mo, the mistress finally lost her temper to glare at Chen He. You're going to let your wife sell the house that I deserve for accompanying you for months just like that‽
Mr. Chen was also at his wit's end. He took a step forward angrily and yelled… not at Mrs. Chen but at Ye Shuang, ”You…”
Before he finished, his voice was swallowed by a loud scream.
