Jiang Pengfei's eyes widened hopefully as he asked, "What's the solution? Jiaming, tell me."

Li Mu said, "With such a high debt, there's no other way to solve it except by selling the house."

Jiang Pengfei muttered to himself, "Sell the house?"

Li Mu said, "Yes, sell the house."

“I know a little about your family’s situation. Apart from this old house, there’s nothing of value left.”

"With a debt of over 40 million, there's no way to pay it off except by selling the house. Even if someone lends you that much money, you still can't pay it back and you'll still have to sell the house."

Jiang Pengfei said, "But my house is already mortgaged to the bank, can I still sell it?"

Li Mu said, "Of course, there aren't many old-style houses available, and they're quite in high demand. As long as we find a suitable and financially capable buyer, I believe that other issues won't be a problem, and the debt can be resolved smoothly."

Jiang Pengfei had no other choice at this point. If selling the house could solve his family's crisis, he would accept it. His only fear was that time was running out, he wouldn't be able to sell it for a high price, and he wouldn't be able to pay off his family's debts.

“Jiaming, with so many creditors pressing us for a house, and the house still mortgaged to the bank, not many people can afford this kind of villa. We can’t hide our situation from the market, and the buyer might try to lower the price.”

Li Mu said, "Then find more buyers and let them compete with each other."

“I remember hearing Suo Suo say that Aunt Nan Sun and Ye Jin Yan from Jing Yan are very close. It is said that they used to start a business together and have a deep friendship.”

“These villas are in high demand, and a real estate tycoon like Ye Jinyan would definitely be interested, plus he has the financial strength. In addition, he has a good relationship with Aunt Nan Sun, so he will give her some face and won’t drive the price down too much.”

Nan Sun asked doubtfully, "Will this work? Does my aunt have that much influence?"

Li Mu said, "Regardless of how much face Auntie has, as long as Ye Jinyan is willing to participate, the goal of raising the price will be achieved. In the end, it doesn't matter who buys it, as long as the price is right."

Jiang Pengfei said, "Okay, this is a good idea."

"Daiyin, I'm leaving this to you. Talk to Daisy about it. Our family is going through such a big problem right now, she needs to lend a hand."

Dai Yin hesitated for a moment, then readily agreed, "Okay, I'll call Daisy later and mention it."

With a solution found, Jiang Pengfei seemed relieved, as if a heavy burden had been lifted from his shoulders.

But then he remembered something and said nervously, "Selling a house isn't something that can be done in just a few days. What if so many creditors come to collect their debts every day during this time?"

“These people are no pushovers. They come in the morning, the afternoon, and even the evening, using all sorts of methods to force you to pay back the money. The whole family can’t have a peaceful time.”

Dai Yin asked worriedly, "Then what should we do?"

Jiang Pengfei sighed, "Besides paying back the money immediately, the only thing I can do is go into hiding. Only when the house is sold, the money comes in, and I pay back all the debts will I be able to have some peace and quiet."

"Besides, once this house is sold, it won't be our home anymore, and we can't live here. We'll have to move out sooner or later."

These words silenced everyone, especially Old Mrs. Jiang, who had lived here for half her life. In her old age, her son squandered the family fortune, leaving her no choice but to move away.

Suddenly feeling the desolation of his later years, he couldn't help but shed tears.

Jiang Nansun was equally distressed. She had lived here since birth for over twenty years, and suddenly her home was gone. Her eyes were also red.

Dai Yin was equally upset, as she had never been favored by her mother-in-law because she gave birth to a daughter. It's truly heartbreaking to encounter such a situation in middle age.

Dai Yin asked, "Where will we live if we move out?"

Jiang Pengfei thought for a moment and said, "How about we rent one first, and then decide where to live after we sell the house?"

Dai Yin nodded in agreement.

"Okay, let's rent an apartment first."

Li Mu said, "Uncle and Aunt, there's no need to go to so much trouble. Speaking of houses, the lease on my rented apartment still has more than two months left. We moved to a new house recently, so the rented apartment is now empty."

"If Uncle and Aunt think it's suitable, let's move there first."

Jiang Pengfei's eyes lit up.

"Okay, Jiaming, thank you, thank you for helping Uncle so much."

Li Mu smiled and said, "You're welcome, it's my pleasure."

"Whenever you move out, Uncle and Aunt, I'll arrange a vehicle for you to take your belongings with you."

Jiang Pengfei was terrified of seeing those debt collectors, and waved his hand dismissively.

"Let's move today."

Chapter 217 Obligations

Since they agreed to move, Li Mu acted quickly, hiring a moving company that same day to help them move to their new home.

The Jiang family's house was quickly listed on several well-known real estate agencies in the vicinity. However, these kinds of villas are not easy to sell; it's common for sales to drag on for three to five months, or even a year and a half.

On Dai Yin's side, she called her sister that same day. Dai Qian was shocked by Jiang Pengfei's actions. After her repeated attempts to persuade Dai Yin to divorce him failed, she continued to dislike the old lady of the Jiang family and Jiang Pengfei.

For the sake of her sister Daisy and Nan Sun, she still called Ye Jinyan.

Ye Jinyan was very accommodating. These kinds of villas are in high demand, and now that the Jiang family is in trouble, they need to sell the house quickly, so the price will definitely be much lower than the market price.

It would be a win-win situation: giving Daisy face and earning her favor, while also getting a small villa at a low price.

Two days later, he took his chief secretary, Fan Jingang, to the Jiang family to look at houses.

Not only Ye Jinyan, but also those real estate agencies, seeing such a sought-after villa going on sale, rushed to make their own moves and quickly contacted clients with financial resources.

Over the course of a few days, these agents actually brought several clients to view the property.

Several customers were initially very interested, but when they learned that it wasn't the entire building being sold, and that a family was living on the second floor, their interest waned considerably.

For wealthy people, who would want another family, especially an old lady, living on the second floor of their house?

There was nothing the Jiang family could do about it. When they were doing well, they had thought about taking back the second-floor apartment, but the old lady living there was unwilling.

Now that the Jiang family has lost, they can't come up with any money, let alone take the house back.

That evening, after exercising, Nan Sun was deeply worried about the matter. The house on the second floor couldn't be recovered, and the Jiang family's house couldn't fetch a good price at all.

Li Mu thought for a moment and said, "Let professionals handle professional matters. If we want to buy the old lady's second-floor room, we need to find professionals to negotiate with."

Nan Sun asked in confusion, "Where can I find a professional?"

Li Mu thought for a moment and said, "The salesperson for the house I bought in Dongli is quite good. I'll call and see if she can help me out."

Without hesitation, he got up and dialed April's number. She was still awake and had a deep impression of Li Mu, this generous client. After a moment's thought, she readily agreed.

Maintaining good relationships with clients and offering them small favors are also among their methods of client retention.

Hearing the pleasant female voice on the other end of the phone, Nan Sun became a little wary: "The salesperson you're talking about is a woman!"

Li Mu laughed and said, "Yes! Not only is she a woman, but she's also quite pretty."

"What? Are you jealous!"

Nan Sun rolled her eyes at him: "Who's jealous? I'm not!"

“I was thinking, the grandma on the second floor agreed to sell her two rooms, but our family doesn’t have the money to take the house back.”

Li Mu's hand roamed over her body, and looking at her rosy cheeks, he kissed her and said, "It's okay, let's talk first. If the price is right, I'll pay for the two rooms on the second floor in your name."

"This way, the property rights will all be in your possession, and you can sell the whole unit."

Jiang Nansun hesitated for a moment and said, "Is it appropriate for you to pay for it and buy it in my name?"

Li Mu said, "Why is it inappropriate! Why do we have to be so clear about things between us? Besides, once the house is sold, the money will come back, right? I won't let you take advantage of me."

Nan Sun smiled sweetly and nodded vigorously: "Yes! Thank you, Jiaming."

Li Mu rolled over and pinned her down, whispering in her ear, "If you want to thank me, words alone aren't enough; you have to show it through your actions."

Li Mu kissed her on the cheek: "As a girlfriend, I have to fulfill my obligations and can't say no."

"Otherwise, I might go find someone else."

Nan Sun glared at him: "You dare?" But she felt a little bitter inside. It wasn't good for a man to be too strong; she couldn't handle it all by herself.

But as a girlfriend, she needs to fulfill her obligations. How can she not even satisfy her boyfriend? Isn't that pushing him away?

For some reason, the image of Zhu Suosuo suddenly popped into Nan Sun's mind. As her best friend, she had taken away Zhu Suosuo's favorite cousin, which was what made her feel most guilty and ashamed.

If possible, even at a certain cost, she wanted to make amends to Suo Suo and make up for the harm she had caused her.

If… Jiang Nansun suddenly had a thought, but was then frightened by his own wild idea and quickly put it out.

However, some ideas, like seeds, will slowly take root and sprout in the right environment and atmosphere.

At this moment, Zhu Suosuo's image reappeared in her mind, and that bold idea from before popped up again. This time, she didn't force it out, but let it take root and sprout, letting her think wildly.

Her face flushed even more, making her even more alluring.

……

The next day, April arrived as promised. As expected of a professional real estate agent, her eloquence and persuasive skills were unparalleled. She went upstairs and chatted with the grandmother on the second floor for more than an hour, and the deal was done.

The Jiang family's villa has three floors and more than 300 square meters. The first and second floors are the main buildings, and the third floor is an attic, which is also Nan Sun's residence.

The second floor has a total area of ​​over 100 square meters, including two rooms, which occupy about half of the area and belong to another elderly woman.

The old lady didn't not want to sell the house; both rooms were in the Jiang family's house, on the second floor. For her, having to go up and down the stairs every day, passing through the Jiang family's living room, was actually quite inconvenient.

However, the Chiang family couldn't offer much.

She had considered listing the house with a real estate agency to sell it to someone else. However, when she heard that the house only had two rooms and was located on the second floor of someone else's house, she realized that she would have to walk up someone else's stairs and through someone else's living room every day to get out of the house.

Who would still buy it?
