Today, more people came to view the house. Fang Fang greeted them enthusiastically. After Zhou Hao went to the repair shop, he realized he had forgotten his phone at home. When he returned, he saw strangers rummaging through their house.
He frowned and asked, "What's going on? Who are they? Why are they just walking around and looking at things in our house?"
The potential buyers saw him and asked Fang Fang who he was.
"This is my husband. Honey, what's wrong? They are my friends. They heard I got married and came to see me. Please go entertain yourself for a while. They'll be leaving soon," Fang Fang said with a smile, not wanting Zhou Hao to know about selling the house yet.
"Ah? Aren't we here to view the house? What's going on, didn't you agree to sell this house?" The male homeowner of the viewing couple was straightforward and asked directly.
Zhou Hao's expression changed slightly, and he asked, "You're selling the house?"
Zhou Hao had never considered selling the house. His grandfather had told him that the house was the foundation of their Zhou family. No matter how big the trouble, they must not sell the house. As long as the house remained, their home would remain. If the house was gone, the Zhou family would be completely finished.
"No, honey, listen to my explanation later. You guys can take your time looking," Fang Fang pulled Zhou Hao into the bedroom and explained, "Honey, I'm not trying to sell the house. I was just thinking that this house is too old, and we should get a new one. This house can be sold for a few million, which can be used as a down payment. We can live in a new house while paying off the loan each month. It's quite cost-effective."
"No, this house absolutely cannot be sold. I'll tell them to leave." Zhou Hao said with a cold face. He walked outside and told the couple to leave quickly, stating the house was not for sale.
The buyers felt bewildered. They said a few unpleasant words and left.
Seeing this, Fang Fang also got angry and said, "You're happy to spend the rest of your life with this broken house, but my child and I don't want to. You will sell this house, whether you want to or not. Otherwise, we'll get a divorce, and you'll give me half of the house."
Zhou Hao looked at her in disbelief, unable to accept that in just a few days, she had turned against him. She hadn't spoken like this before.
"This house will not be sold. Just give up on that idea. I have to go to work. You rest at home," Zhou Hao got up and left.
Fang Fang did not smile and see him off as she used to, saying things like be careful. Instead, she sat on the sofa with a sullen face, her arms crossed, looking displeased.
After coming out, Zhou Hao stood in a daze for a long time. He suddenly felt as if he didn't recognize Fang Fang, or perhaps he had never truly known her at all.
He walked towards the repair shop in a daze. Because he was distracted, he injured his hand. The wound was too deep, so he had to go to the hospital for treatment. He called Fang Fang. When she answered, she spoke to him impatiently and hung up.
When Zhou Hao returned home, there was no ready meal waiting for him as usual. He walked into the room and saw Fang Fang sleeping. Hearing the noise, she impatiently cursed a few words and shouted, "What are you doing? Don't you know I'm sleeping? Get out!"
Fang Fang was anxious and frustrated because the house was not selling well. Her pregnancy was fake, and if she delayed any longer, it would be exposed. She just wanted to sell the house quickly and leave with the money.
"Aren't you going to eat?" Zhou Hao was a bit confused but still asked patiently.
"Eat what? I'm angry all day. Get out, don't disturb my sleep," Fang Fang yelled angrily and continued to sleep.
