After the tycoon went bankrupt, he was raised by the villainous female supporting character and beca

Qin Song looked at Pei Xingzhi for his opinion. Pei Xingzhi thought for a moment and said, "I have some urgent work to do and I may need to work for another hour."

Fearing that Pei's mother might not hear him, Qin Song repeated, "Xingzhi hasn't finished his work yet, and he might not be able to leave the studio for another hour."

"It's alright." Pei's mother's voice was noticeably more relaxed. "Xiao Li arrived late, you can come over after you finish your work."

Qin Song nodded: "Okay, then we'll go back as soon as we're done. Don't worry, Mom."

Pei's mother: "Yes, Mom is waiting for you at home."

After hanging up the phone, Qin Song put his hands behind his back, turned around and walked into the office: "Good luck, I'll leave early once I'm done!"

Pei Xingzhi pushed up his glasses, gazing at her retreating figure with fascination in his eyes: "Okay."

"Brother Pei." Ye Ci jumped up from her chair and said pitifully to Pei Xingzhi, "Can I go back with you later? My parents went out to play these past few days, and I'm all alone at home. I've been eating takeout for three or four days in a row and I really don't want to eat it anymore..."

Pei Xingzhi raised an eyebrow: "So, you want to come back with me for a free meal?"

Ye Ci nodded vigorously: "Yes! It's been almost a month since I last ate here. I think Auntie must miss me."

"..." Pei Xingzhi sighed helplessly, "Yes, I miss you. Remember to buy a bigger bowl when you go later, the bowls at home are not enough to satisfy your appetite."

"Hehe..." Ye Ci was satisfied. "Thank you, Brother Pei!"

At 3 p.m., Pei Xingzhi locked the studio door, took his wife and best friend, and left work the earliest he had ever done.

Two Mercedes-Benz cars drove out of the community parking lot one after the other and arrived at their destination before the evening rush hour.

Coincidentally, they ran into real estate agent Xiao Li and his large family of clients just as they reached the entrance of the building.

It's no exaggeration to say it was a huge family! From toddlers still in kindergarten to elderly people with hunched backs, Qin Song glanced around and estimated there were about twelve people, almost too many for one elevator to fit.

"Xiao Li, this is..." Qin Song pointed to the large group of customers, somewhat dumbfounded.

With an embarrassed smile, Xiao Li explained, "Ms. Qin, this is the buyer who is viewing the property."

Pei Xingzhi held Qin Song's hand tightly, leaning slightly to the side, intentionally protecting her behind him.

"Who will buy it?" he asked in a cold tone.

Xiao Li pointed to a young couple in the corner and answered softly, "They bought it to use as their wedding home."

Pei Xingzhi frowned coldly: "Then why are there so many people?"

"Sigh..." Xiao Li rubbed his forehead with a headache, took two steps closer and said in a low voice, "The money to buy the house was pooled together by their whole family. When the house is transferred, they will all move in, so... they came to look at the house together."

"...So many people? Living together?!" Qin Songzhen was a little dumbfounded. "This house is indeed very big, but more than a dozen people living here...isn't that a bit too crowded?"

Xiao Li shrugged with a wry smile, almost speaking in a whisper: "And this is it? Not everyone has arrived yet. The young couple said that they have two older sisters and an aunt who are on their way..."

"..." Qin Song's vision went black.

Pei Xingzhi said expressionlessly, "It's their business how many people they want to stay, I have no interest in interfering. But it's absolutely unacceptable for so many people to go in and look at the house together. Too many people can easily cause trouble. We just resolved the last problem, and we don't want to get into another one so soon."

“I understand how you feel,” Xiao Li said. “I had already communicated with them before coming. When we’re looking at the apartments, we have to go in in batches, three or four people at a time. We definitely won’t all rush in at once.”

"Xiao Song, what do you think?" Pei Xingzhi did not agree immediately, but asked Qin Song for his opinion first.

Qin Song hesitated for a few seconds, then nodded somewhat reluctantly: "Alright. Since we're already here, if you don't let them in to see the room, they'll definitely cause a scene later."

"Xiao Li, did you tell them that we have surveillance cameras in our house?"

Xiao Li: "I told them, they all know."

Qin Song tugged at Pei Xingzhi's hand: "Let's go upstairs and look at the apartment."

"Oh!" Xiao Li breathed a sigh of relief. "Thank you for your understanding, Miss Qin."

Qin Song was pregnant, and Pei Xingzhi was worried that there would be too many people crowding her, so he asked Xiao Li to take the group of clients up in the elevator first, while he, Ye Ci, and Qin Song stayed behind to sit in the next elevator.

"Ding--"

The elevator doors closed, and a chattering group of people were taken up in the elevator.

"Oh my god." Ye Ci put her hands on her hips, finally able to voice her complaint.

"This is outrageous! More than a dozen people came to see the house, and more than a dozen people will live together in the future. This is even more crowded than a shared apartment. I can't even imagine what they will do to the house if Aunt Pei's house is really sold to them."

"Sigh..." Qin Song sighed and shook his head with a complicated expression. "They said it was a wedding house for the young couple, but all the relatives want to come and live here. If they couldn't afford that much money, they could have just not bought such an expensive house. Why put such a big unpleasant prospect on their future lives?"

“If the parties involved don’t consider this, what can we onlookers say?” Pei Xingzhi put his hand on Qin Song’s shoulder and affectionately kneaded Qin Song’s cheek.

"Let them be, we'll just focus on selling the houses."

Qin Song rubbed his fingers together and said, "Mmm."

There were so many people looking at the house that Pei's mother was quite startled when she opened the door. She couldn't handle them all by herself, so she didn't rush to have Xiao Li bring everyone in. Instead, she waited for Qin Song and Pei Xingzhi to arrive before letting them in in batches.

"Ye Ci, do me a favor." Qin Song patted Ye Ci on the shoulder and suddenly said.

Ye Ci: "Sister-in-law, you speak."

Qin Song leaned closer to him and whispered in his ear, "Follow them inside and use your phone to film the whole process of them viewing the house. Try to film everyone."

"There are too many of them, which can easily create blind spots, and the surveillance cameras inside the house may not be able to capture these blind spots clearly."

Ye Ci did not refuse and immediately took out his phone and went inside.

There were four people viewing the house in the first batch. Ye Ci couldn't take pictures of them all by himself, so he asked Xiao Li to help him. Xiao Li was also worried about something going wrong, so he agreed without much thought.

Everyone was on guard and immediately took the necessary precautions, but in the end, they still couldn't prevent the accident from happening.

When the third group of people went in to look at the house, the old man standing in the middle suddenly let out a wail and then collapsed to the ground in front of everyone.
