TVSFPAG -Chapter 77 Doing Meaningful Things Within Limited Time

After hanging up the phone, Song Yunfei didn’t even participate in the company orientation and went straight out, riding an electric scooter to meet Chen Wan.

Since she was often running around outside, Chu Jinhan left the electric scooter for her, while he himself took the bus to work.

Having an electric scooter really made things much more convenient. In no time, she arrived at Old Madam Chen’s home.

Chen Wan opened the door for her, but didn’t let her in. Instead, she took Song Yunfei outside to talk.

Seeing her acting so mysteriously, Song Yunfei asked, “What’s wrong? Did something happen?”

Chen Wan lowered her head in silence, a hint of guilt on her face. “Aunt said she wants to give the house to me.”

“Huh? Oh, that’s good then.” Song Yunfei was only briefly surprised before quickly understanding.

It turned out something had happened during the few days she was on leave. Wu Qin had come back once, mainly to persuade the old lady to sell the house.

However, since Chen Wan was there, Wu Qin suspected that the old lady intended to give the house to her. Chen Wan had tried to persuade her aunt, but ended up being slapped by Wu Qin.

The old lady was also enraged. At the time, she may have been speaking in anger when she said she would give the house to Chen Wan.

Later, a neighbor called the police, and Wu Qin left angrily.

Chen Wan also thought it was just words spoken in anger. However, last night the old lady seriously told her that she wanted to transfer the house into Chen Wan’s name.

Now Chen Wan was conflicted and came to Song Yunfei for advice.

In fact, she didn’t want the house. If it were transferred to her, Wu Qin would definitely cause trouble for her later—possibly even taking her to court.

Moreover, once she went out to work, if Wu Qin came back to harass the old lady again, she wouldn’t be able to intervene in time.

Song Yunfei asked, “So what are you thinking?”

Chen Wan said, “I actually want to sell the house, take my aunt away from here, and bring her to where I work. But I’m afraid she might overthink it.”

“Then again, I’m also worried—if we sell it and she can’t get used to living there and wants to come back, she won’t have a place to stay anymore.”

Song Yunfei could understand. After all, Wu Qin had just tried to sell the house earlier, and now Chen Wan was planning to sell it after taking it over. It would be easy for the elderly to misunderstand and think she was the same as Wu Qin.

Song Yunfei pondered for a moment. “Then you could rent it out instead. That way, you’ll have money to take your aunt to live elsewhere. If she ever wants to come back, the house will still be there, and she won’t overthink it.”

Chen Wan was stunned for a moment, then her eyes lit up. “Right! Why didn’t I think of that? That’s a great idea. I’ll go talk to Aunt about it right away. Thank you, Senior.”

Song Yunfei smiled. “No problem.”

“I’ll go discuss it with her. As for renting the house later, I’ll still need your help, Senior.”

“Of course. Call me anytime once you’ve sorted things out.”

“Mm!”

Song Yunfei sighed, “It’s good that Old Madam Chen has you. But since your job isn’t stable yet, she probably doesn’t want to be a burden to you. Have you thought about how to convince her?”

Chen Wan fell silent for a long time before she said wistfully, “Life is unpredictable in length and form. Precisely because our time is limited, we should do more things that we personally find meaningful.”

“Otherwise, when we look back someday, everything will be filled with regrets and remorse.”

“I’ll do my best to persuade her, take her away from this place of sadness, change the environment, and spend the rest of our time together properly. I’ll give it my all—and even if the outcome isn’t what we hope for, at least I will have tried, and my heart will be at peace.”

Song Yunfei stood there in a daze. Chen Wan’s words seemed to strike something deep within her heart.

It made her recall that age-old question—what is more regrettable: never having had something at all, or having had it and then losing it?

Seeing her remain silent for a long time, lost in thought, Chen Wan couldn’t help but call out, “Senior?”

Song Yunfei snapped back to reality and forced a small smile. “What is it?”

“Nothing. Do you want to come inside and sit for a while?”

Song Yunfei shook her head. “No, you go discuss things with Old Madam Chen first. I won’t disturb you.”

“Alright. I’ll treat you to a meal next time.”

The two chatted a bit more, then Song Yunfei left the residential area and rode her electric scooter back to the sales office.

After returning, she felt somewhat distracted.

Xiao Shuang came over and told her that Li Shan had taken two days off and hadn’t come to work since.

Everyone was gossiping, saying that her boyfriend had found another girlfriend and wasn’t paying much attention to her anymore.

Song Yunfei wasn’t interested in such matters; in fact, she felt even better that Li Shan wasn’t around.

She went to discuss with Zhang Tao whether they could get the buyer to sign a rental contract instead, so that everyone would benefit.

The buyer would get the house they wanted, the agency would earn its commission, and the old lady would no longer be harassed.

Zhang Tao stroked his chin and thought for a long time.

If they truly couldn’t persuade the old lady, and the deal ended up falling through on both sides, Song Yunfei’s suggestion was indeed a good alternative.

“Alright then. I’ll talk to the buyer. If it works out, that’s fine. But can you convince the old lady to rent it out on your end?”

Song Yunfei felt delighted and nodded. “It should be fine.”

Judging from what Chen Wan had said, she believed Chen Wan could persuade the old lady.

Sometimes, doing what’s best for someone isn’t necessarily what they want—but the old lady should be able to come to terms with that.

After their discussion, Zhang Tao picked up his phone and called the buyer to talk about renting the property.

Song Yunfei watched him communicate with the other party and couldn’t help but marvel. No wonder he was able to become a manager—just a few sentences, and he had convinced the other party completely.

The buyer agreed, but requested a minimum lease of three years. Zhang Tao assured him it could be arranged.

After hanging up, Zhang Tao said to Song Yunfei, “You heard it—at least three years. I’ve already made the promise, so make sure you handle this properly.”

Song Yunfei smiled. “Don’t worry!”

She had thought this deal would fall through, but it turned out to take a turn for the better. Although the profit was a bit less, it was still better than nothing.

Near the end of the afternoon, her salary of 1,500 yuan was credited.

Her previously deflated wallet finally felt a little fuller again.

Every time she thought about last night’s 320,174, her heart ached.

Even leaving work didn’t feel as exciting anymore. Sitting on her electric scooter, she thought for a moment, then turned around to go pick up Chu Jinhan.

Previously, when the electric scooter was with Chu Jinhan, he would pick her up from work. Now it was her turn to pick him up.

Arriving at the entrance of the industrial park, Song Yunfei parked her scooter by the roadside.

Just as she was about to send Chu Jinhan a message, she turned her head and noticed a familiar figure squatting across the street.

It was none other than Wu Wei.

She put away her phone and walked toward him.

Wu Wei was squatting on the ground, staring at his phone and grinning, completely unaware that Song Yunfei had arrived.

“Wu Wei, what are you doing here?”

Wu Wei froze for a moment, then looked up and quickly stood up. “Sister Song, are you here to find Brother Chu too?”

Song Yunfei frowned slightly. “Brother Chu? You’re looking for him too? Wait—when did the two of you become so close?”

Wu Wei rubbed his hands excitedly. “Yeah! Brother Chu is amazing—truly a big shot! In less than ten days, he helped me make 150,000 yuan. 150,000! I never dreamed I could earn that much money.”

“So I came here specifically to wait for him. I definitely have to treat him to a meal. Since you’re here, why don’t you come along?”

Looking at his excited expression, Song Yunfei had a vague sense of unease.

“How exactly did he help you make that money?”
