May this scumbag husband, who favored his concubine over his wife, rest in peace.

The man who made the move was a man who looked to be in his early twenties, about the same age as Lu Chengyuan, but he was arrogant and domineering.

"Hey, sir, we've already made our reservations. You have to respect the order of arrival, don't you?" the broker said urgently.

This is a once-in-a-lifetime order!

If this gets ruined, it'll be like a duck that's already in your mouth flying away!

"First come, first served? I don't care about that, what can you do about it?!" The man glared. "Let me tell you, I'm here in the capital to take up an official post! You dare offend me? Have you thought about the consequences?!"

Seeing that the man with the tooth had stopped speaking, the man turned his gaze and saw the beautiful woman standing to the side.

The beauty wore a pale yellow dress, her skin was as white as jade, so tender it seemed like you could squeeze water out of it, and her beautiful eyes seemed to be able to steal your soul.

At this moment, the beauty was also looking at him, her eyes seemingly filled with a shy desire to speak but unable to, which made him even more captivated.

"This young lady—"

The man had barely opened his mouth when an irresistible force struck his abdomen, sending him flying backward.

Fortunately, there were some withered old logs behind him, which cushioned his fall and prevented him from getting seriously injured.

"Ouch!"

The broker cried out in surprise and quickly stepped forward to help the person up.

This person can't die in this house!

Otherwise, wouldn't this house become a haunted house? Even if it can't be sold now, it will be difficult in the future!

Lu Chengyuan scoffed and stepped forward to block Wen Yuanshu: "Now is not the time for official transfers. Whose connections did you use to get an official position in the capital?"

Local officials are rotated every three years; there are established rules for this.

The man, supported by the broker's hand, stood up and said through gritted teeth, "Oh, I didn't expect you to be so knowledgeable! Since you're knowledgeable and know I'm an official, how dare you lay a hand on me!"

Lu Chengyuan was too lazy to waste any more breath on this brainless person, so he beckoned to the broker: "Come here and finish writing the contract."

Seeing that the man was able to stand on his own, the broker quickly went over and spread out a clean sheet of paper.

Seeing that he was being ignored, the man jumped up in anger: "I'm asking you a question! Who are you to dare ignore me!"

Wen Yuanshu pressed her temples: "...So noisy."

Upon hearing this, Lu Chengyuan was alarmed.

He took a few steps forward, grabbed the man by the neck, and dragged him away.

What happened outside was unknown to those inside; in any case, things had quieted down.

After the broker finished writing the contract, Chunhua put her fingerprint on it. All that was needed was to take it to the government office for approval, and the matter would be settled.

"Alright, I'll go take care of things with the government in a bit. Please keep this contract safe!"

Wen Yuanshu looked at Chunhua and saw her standing there blankly without moving, so she said, "Keep it."

Chunhua realized what was happening and quickly reached out to take the contract.

"Thank you for your help. We'd like to stay here a little longer."

The broker understood, quickly packed his things, and turned to leave.

Wen Yuanshu then pulled Chunhua along and walked around inside and outside the house: "This house is really nice. Although there isn't any decent furniture, we can just furnish it ourselves and buy all new furniture."

Seeing that Chunhua was still in a daze, Wen Yuanshu said, "I'm going out to see how Lu Chengyuan is doing. You can wander around here by yourself."

After saying that, Wen Yuanshu turned and left.

Lu Chengyuan waited outside, but the other person was nowhere to be found.

Seeing her come out on her own, Lu Chengyuan's eyebrows twitched: "Where's Chunhua?"

"She's inside. Tell her to take a good look around." Wen Yuanshu looked around. "And that person? Who is he?"

"Another one who bought his way into office."

Wen Yuanshu twitched the corner of her mouth: "It seems... this Minister of Personnel has made quite a bit of money by buying official positions."

They've even managed to buy their way into the capital city.

"is not that right."

Lu Chengyuan glanced behind her and saw Chunhua come out, then said, "Let's go."

Seeing that it was getting late, the three of them went to the restaurant.
