Unfavorable reports started appearing .
Someone even commented about how dark and shady the vibes around the building were, given that 17 people had died there .
Although the incident had happened long ago and there were a lot less superstitious people now, buying a property was a major life decision, and people were extremely cautious to begin with .
Hence, the remark about the negative vibes immediately caused the city’s residents much conflict .
Someone even said that he was determined not to buy the property .
There were also a few families that made appeals on the internet and to the reporters, saying,
[Now I only hope that the developer returns me the money . I don’t want the property . We waited eight years because of it! I don’t wish to spend all of my life savings, only to end up with a poorly done property . ]
Furthermore, someone said,

[If they don’t do a good job with the waste pipe, it’s going to smell and the house will stink . ]
[Leakages in the water pipe and oven gas stoves are huge issues! The most important thing about owning a home is that you have to be comfortable living in it . If you have to worry about this and that every day, then what good is there in owning such a property?]
There were all sorts of negative comment bearing down on the project .
Looking quite ill by now, Song Cheng said, “How are we going to launch our sales tomorrow like this?”
Prior to this, the project had been adequately advertised thanks to the influence of Shen Liangchuan .
In fact, there was no need for advertisements, the whole of Suzhou knew about the project . It had saved them a hefty sum of money .
But now!
Would anyone be willing to buy the property now that this had happened?

If they did not sell their target number of units in the pre-sales, there would be a big issue with the later phase of construction .
Qiao Lian panicked too and said with exasperation, “This Lu Nanze!”
It had been about two weeks since the housing project had been announced, but all of these negative comments had surfaced just a day before the scheduled pre-sales .
Thinking back on what Lu Nanze had said about the results showing in two weeks, it made sense to Qiao Lian now that this was all his doing .
Why was it that he just couldn’t bear to see her happy?
She gritted her teeth with anger .
Both she and Song Cheng looked at Shen Liangchuan . However, he was the picture of calmness, as usual .
He lowered his gaze, then lifted his head slowly again and looked at the two of them . Seeing his look of confidence, they suddenly understood .

“You knew this would happen, didn’t you?” Qiao Lian asked, giving him a strange look .
He nodded and finally said, “Things had been going too smoothly in the last two weeks . I knew he’d target the pre-sales . ”
Hearing this, Song Cheng and Qiao Lian calmed down somewhat . Simultaneously, they looked at him and asked, “Now what?”
His expression darkened as he said, “No hurry . ”
With the reopening of the housing project, its name was changed . It was now called Yuxiu Gardens .
The matter concerning Yuxiu Gardens had attracted the attention of the community at large . Hence, on the pre-sales launching day, the reporters had made their way there early in the day .
Qiao Lian and Shen Liangchuan went to the sales venue together in a car .
She was aware that her palms were cold and clammy .
What if no one came forward to buy the property?
Her anxiety was put to rest when they arrived and saw that there was a bustling crowd outside the pre-sales venue .
As long as there were people, it meant it was popularity .
“However,” she thought, “this is still too good to be true . ”
Just when she heaved a sigh of relief and walked into the sales venue with Shen Liangchuan to wait for the buyers to come in, she saw Song Cheng walking up to them with a worried expression . “Brother Shen, the people in the crowd are those who bought the units eight years ago . Now they wish to withdraw from the purchase!”
