d, but from what they could hear, she was crying even louder now.

Lu Zhengfei turned to look at Chen Qianqing: “Qianqing, do you have the house keys?”

Chen Qianqing’s heart was in chaos.
He never would have thought that Lu Zhengfei that bastard would not have locked the door when they went back to their room, and coupled with Chen Xiaohui who liked to open doors as she pleased without knocking, things had turned even more complicated.

He took out his phone to call Liu Huamei, and asked where the keys were kept.

After hearing nothing coming from outside even after such a long while, Chen Xiaohui spoke up softly: “Are you still outside?”

Lu Zhengfei said: “Qianqing went to look for the spare keys, you decide whether you want to come out on your own or if you want us to open the door ourselves.”

After a period of silence, Chen Xiaohui still decided to open the door, saving Chen Qianqing the effort of getting the keys.

As soon as she went out, Chen Xiaohui saw the bitter looks on both their faces.
She turned directly towards Chen Qianqing: “Cousin, how could you do such disgusting things? Just think about how sad uncle would feel if he saw that…”

Chen Qianqing looked at Chen Xiao Hui, and he could easily find from the weak and pitiful eyes of this girl a look of malice.
He asked: “Do you plan to tell them?”

Chen Xiaohui lowered her head, and said meekly: “How could I hide such a thing from uncle and auntie?”

Instantly, a tinge of ridicule emerged on Lu Zhengfei’s face who was looking on at the side when he heard Chen Xiaohui’s words.

Chen Qianqing responded to her: “Alright, just tell me then, what can I do for you to keep it from my mom and dad?”

Being stared at in such a way by Chen Qianqing, Chen Xiaohui could feel a chill crawling up her back.
But she still mustered up the courage and spoke her request in a hushed voice: “Please help me persuade auntie… Ask auntie to sell… sell that house to my mom.”

Well, this entire family has no shame.

If this was the real Chen Qianqing, then he may actually have agreed out of fear and panic.

After hearing Chen Xiaohui’s request, Chen Qianqing put on expression that seemed almost like a mocking smile: “Chen Xiaohui, do you and your mom want that house so much?”

Chen Xiaohui tried to explain in a stutter: “Cousin, it’s…it’s not like I have any other choice, my family is too poor so my mom can’t afford a house…Just pity my family for once, please…?”

Chen Qianqing said to her: “So these are your conditions? For me to persuade my mother to sell the house to your family?”

Chen Xiaohui responded with a soft hum of acknowledgement.

Chen Qianqing turned to look at Lu Zhengfei, and the voice that came out from his lips was as cold as ice: “Lu Zhengfei, this is your fault, so don’t you think you should be the one wiping your own ass clean?”

It would be a lie to say that Lu Zhengfei was not angry; it was so rare for Chen Qianqing to finally show his soft side in front of him for once, and it ended up being seen by someone else, even turning into something that was used against them——Anyone else would also be pissed.

Lu Zhengfei wanted to try and move Chen Xiaohui with reason, but thinking about it, no amount of talk would get anything done.
Besides, looking at Chen Xiaohui’s crying face, he could tell that about eighty percent of it was just her putting on an act.
So, he told her: “Xiaohui, can you give him some time to think? Don’t you still plan to stay for two more days? How about you give him until the day you leave before he agrees to anything?”

Chen Xiaohui raised her head to look at Lu Zhengfei, and seemed to be assessing the credibility of his words.

Lu Zhengfei put on a warm smile: “Do you not trust your cousin, or…”——This face of mine?

Under Lu Zhengfei’s gentle smile, Chen Xiaohui actually agreed.

Chen Qianqing crossed his arms and looked coldly at Lu Zhengfei.
Without even saying a single word to him, he turned and left.

Chen Xiaohui watched Chen Qianqing’s back as he left, and she turned to Lu Zhengfei: “Brother Lu, you’re nicer than my cousin, he’s so fierce to me…”

Lu Zhengfei reached out to pat her on her head, and he really wished he could tell her——Silly child, just because I’m nice to you doesn’t mean I like you, I’m just waiting for the right time to come before I chop you up.

Even though they have temporarily settled things with Chen Xiaohui, things were not over just yet.

Lu Zhengfei returned back to their room with a bitter face, and saw that Chen Qianqing was back to playing mahjong.
He said: “Qianqing…Don’t be angry.”

Chen Qianqing hummed a response.

Lu Zhengfei: “…I’m sorry, it really was my fault this time, really…”

Chen Qianqing responded without even turning around: “Don’t apologize to me, Lu Zhengfei, if you can’t settle this right, I’ll castrate you.”

Lu Zhengfei could actually feel that Chen Qianqing was not joking around!!!! And because of what he said, he could actually feel a twinge of pain bubbling up in that certain part of his body.

Lu Zhengfei took out his phone slowly and dialed a number.
After going through a long conversation with a bunch of mms and ahs, he finally got to business: “Help me investigate a person, yeah, that’s right, from C City, her name is Chen Xiaohui and her mother’s name is Chen Qingyu, mhm, please be quick, if possible, I need it by tonight…”

Chen Qianqing could just about guess who Lu Zhengfei was calling.
He curled his lips and the look of contempt in his eyes almost seemed as if it was going to materialize soon.

Lu Zhengfei hung up the call and went over to him: “Don’t worry, Qianqing, uncle and auntie will never know.”

Chen Qianqing turned up his eyes: “I hope so.”
