Rebirth or let the ungrateful wolf be born

Jiang Jie closed her eyes and tried to recall the way home. Following her memory, she walked through streets that were both familiar and unfamiliar, and finally arrived at the apartment she had bought.

Standing at the door, she realized that she didn't bring her keys. This house was bought 20 years ago, and it was equipped with an old-fashioned anti-theft door that required a traditional key to open. Nowadays, most people have replaced their doors with new ones that can be unlocked with fingerprints or passwords.

She sighed helplessly, sat down on the stairs next to the house, and stared blankly at the closed door. The house did not look like it had been uninhabited for a long time. There was no dust on the door, and the door handle was wiped clean. Obviously, people came in and out here frequently.

Jiang Jie couldn't help but wonder: Who is living in my house?

She decided to wait and see if there would be any new discoveries. It didn't take long before she saw an agent open her door with a bunch of keys. The moment Jiang Jie saw the door open, she quickly stepped into the house.

The agent was obviously startled by Jiang Jie's sudden appearance, but still asked Jiang Jie politely: "Miss, did you also make an appointment to see this house?"

Jiang Jie saw that the three of them were looking at her waiting for an answer, and she smiled awkwardly and nodded.

The agent continued to show the three people around the house, and they walked into the living room. The layout of the room was simple and clear, and it was very clean and tidy. Although the furniture was from 20 years ago, they did not look old. Perhaps because no one had used it for a long time, and because it was made of solid wood, it gave people a unique Chinese ancient feeling.

The couple was obviously very interested in the house. The wife couldn't help but ask, "Will all the furniture be given to us?" She looked at the agent, expecting a positive answer.

The agent nodded and replied firmly, "Yes, all the furniture will be given away when you buy this house. Because of this, we can no longer make any more concessions on the price. Several customers were very satisfied with this place before, but they hoped to lower the price a little, but we failed to reach an agreement in the end."

Jiang Jie stood silently by the side, her eyes slowly sweeping over each familiar piece of furniture. These pieces of furniture were once carefully selected and purchased by her, carrying her past memories and efforts. She gently reached out her hand and gently touched one of the pieces of furniture, as if she could touch the young self who had worked tirelessly to have her own home.

As her fingers touched, those long-forgotten memories came back to her mind. She recalled every detail of her twenties - working hard and saving money just to realize her dream of buying this house. Now, the years have left marks on her face, but when she looks at these furniture again, that time of hard work seems to reappear before her eyes.

"Miss, may I ask how can I contact the buyer of this house?" Jiang Jie raised her head, her eyes revealing a bit of anxiety, and asked the agent who was chatting with the couple.

"Beauty, if you have any needs, please tell me and I will help you communicate with the seller." The agent looked at this quiet woman with some surprise. Her sudden request caught the agent off guard, but he still tactfully rejected Jiang Jie.

Jiang Jie also realized that her request was a bit excessive. She showed an apologetic smile on her face and explained, "I'm sorry, I'm not looking for him to buy a house. If I want to buy one, I will still come to you. I have your business card." As she spoke, Jiang Jie held up the business card that the agent gave her when she entered the door.

"I just want to know who the previous owner of this house was, because..." Jiang Jie hesitated, as if she had something to hide.

Seeing this, the agent asked curiously, "Why? Do you know the previous owner of this house?"

Jiang Jie nodded and said softly, "Well, actually this house belongs to a friend of mine. I haven't contacted him since he got married. I heard recently that he sold the house, so I want to find the buyer and ask him if he knows the whereabouts of my friend. He will definitely not blame you for telling me his contact information, but will be grateful to you! If you don't believe it, you can call him first and say that a woman named Jiang Jie is looking for him, and see if he is willing to let you give me his phone number."

Jiang Jie's brain was like a high-speed machine, thinking quickly about how to get the homeowner's mobile phone number. When the agent heard what Jiang Jie said, he seemed a little hesitant. After a while, he slowly took out his mobile phone and dialed a number.

"Mr. Zeng, there is a Miss Jiang Jie who wants to talk to you in person, so she asked me for your contact information." The gentle and sweet voice of the intermediary reached Jiang Jie's ears, which made her heart beat faster instantly. She became nervous and could not wait for the other party's response. There was no doubt that Mr. Zeng must be Zeng Ping. I don't know what the other party said to the intermediary. A few minutes later, the intermediary took out a pen and a piece of paper from her bag, and then wrote down a string of numbers neatly. Finally, she carefully handed the string of numbers to Jiang Jie, as if it was an extremely precious password.

Jiang Jie dialed the number immediately. She held the phone tightly, feeling extremely nervous, as if she was holding a bomb that could explode at any time instead of a phone. When she heard the other party's voice, her heartbeat accelerated, as if it was about to jump out of her throat.

"Hello! My name is Jiang Jie?" Jiang Jie's voice was slightly trembling, like a candle swaying in the wind, which could go out at any time.

The other party was silent for a moment, then slowly said: "Oh, you are back, where are you now?"

Zeng Ping's voice was still the same as Jiang Jie remembered, which made her heart even more nervous, like a frightened deer, bumping around in her chest.

"Zeng Ping, I have decided to take back the house now, is it too late?" Jiang Jie called him urgently in order to take back the house. She saw that the couple seemed very satisfied, and she was afraid that if she delayed any longer, her house would become someone else's.

Zeng Ping was also very excited when he heard Jiang Jie's voice. He remembered that this woman didn't remember what he looked like a month ago, so he was a little restrained for fear of scaring her: "Okay, this is your house. If you don't want to sell it, you can take it back anytime. It's your freedom. But you may not be able to take back the store you sold to me!" Zeng Ping told the result in advance.

"What store?" Jiang Jie didn't remember any stores. "Should we meet up somewhere to talk? It's hard to explain over the phone. You should call the real estate agency first. I don't want to sell this house anymore. I just saw that the couple who came to see the house were very satisfied with it. I'm afraid the deal will be closed if I don't call." Zeng Ping responded on the other end of the phone, and asked him to add the phone number on WeChat, and they made the appointment on WeChat.
