Obediently, Ning Ran accepted the call.

“Ran, where are you?”

“Get straight to the point,” she said in a neutral tone.

“I want to see you.”

“It’s too late so it’s not very convenient for me. Just say what you want.”

“Well, the thing is, I received a call from the courthouse today informing me that they’re going to auction off our old house. I was wondering if you still wanted that house. If you do, you should buy it. You could keep it as a souvenir or something.”

“That’s my mother’s house! How could you have mortgaged it off?”

“I didn’t have a choice! The company was bankrupt so the only thing I could do was mortgage the house. The bank is filing a lawsuit now. That’s why they’re auctioning the house. I thought I should let you know…”

Ning Ran hung up, unwilling to listen to him anymore.

Once again, grief threatened to swallow her whole.

“What’s wrong?” Nan Chen queried in concern.

“Ning Ziqiang says that Mom’s house is going to be auctioned off. He mortgaged it to the bank. The house… I can’t even keep the house…”

She choked up, unable to continue speaking.

Nan Chen knitted his brows. After a while, he said, “Stop thinking about all this and go to sleep.”

“Sorry for affecting your mood as well. I didn’t mean to.”

“It’s fine. How about this? Agree to meet with Ning Ziqiang tomorrow at the snooker bar.”
