Chapter 719  : Do You Hate Me This Much? (19)

Qiao Lian jumped when she heard this and exclaimed, “What?”

Song Cheng frowned and looked infuriated as well.

They had thought initially that all these people were here with an interest to buy from the housing project.

He gritted his teeth with anger.

A surge of anger welled up inside Qiao Lian.

In the eyes of the law, there was in fact no obligation for her to repay what her parents owed.

Shen Liangchuan had taken up the task of constructing this building in order to give these people an explanation and closure. But unexpectedly, in the end, these people had nothing but found fault with them!

As she was contemplating the situation, she heard someone among the crowd raising their voice.

Frowning, she walked to the entrance. She noticed that the crowd had split themselves into two groups.

One group was made up of the people who had previously turned up at the hotel to thank them. The other group was obviously just troublemakers.

The two groups were arguing with each other.

“Say, Old Zhang, you guys are too much! Mr. Shen is constructing this building to compensate us and it’s a loss for him! Don’t you have any conscience?”

“What the h*ck! I spent so much money and all I got in the end is this rubble! With this money, why wouldn’t I use it to buy a house elsewhere? It’s my hard-earned money and there’s nothing wrong in taking back my own money, is there?”

“You- you-”

“Besides, in the last eight years, the property price has flipped and we are asking for a refund at the current market price.”

“This request is even more unreasonable, you…”

Qiao Lian clenched her fists as she listened to the two groups arguing.

She frowned and was about to take a step forward, when the leader of the troublemaking group, who was leading a group of reporters, asked, “Although it’s true, there is no room for regret and refund after you’ve purchased a property, be reasonable. We paid eight years ago and up till now have not received our property. We just wish to have a new good quality home, why is that so difficult?”

Even the reporters sighed upon hearing this.

“Best Actor Shen, come out here! We want to return our purchases!”

“Return!”

Given that five or six households were making trouble and demands, the whole group was swayed.

Qiao Lian was furious.

If they all returned their purchases, how would they continue with their construction?

It was obvious that the troublemaking group had been sent by Lu Nanze!

She took a step forward and was about to say something, when Shen Liangchuan interrupted, “You really wish to return your purchased homes?”

The crowd looked at Shen Liangchuan and started shouting at the same time, “That’s right! We want to return our purchased units!”

Upon hearing this, Shen Liangchuan lowered his gaze and said icily, “Sure, you can return the units, I hope you won’t regret it. Song Cheng, take note of the people who wish to return their purchases.”

Once these words were spoken, Qiao Lian and Song Cheng hurriedly stepped forward.

“Brother Shen!”

“Shen Liangchuan!”

So far, no one had come forward to buy any units, so how could these people return the units?

However, Shen Liangchuan was determined and insisted, “Do the sums. Return them the money based on the current market price.”

As he voiced his decision, the reporters applauded loudly.

They all praised him for being a generous person.

Moreover, those homeowners were immediately excited and happy upon hearing that they would get back their properties for their current value.

Originally, about a hundred units had been sold. So when the people saw that they could get a refund by returning their property, over 50 people stepped forward for this opportunity.

Song Cheng was sitting on the side, punching numbers on his calculator. As he did so, his heart was aching.

How much would this cost?!

The building construction had not even started, yet they already had to give as compensation such a huge amount of money.

As for the group that did not want a refund, the group leader was an elderly man, the same one who had hurled the brick that hit Shen Liangchuan. Having seen what was going on, he frowned and looked at Shen Liangchuan with great concern, asking, “In this case, are you still going ahead with the construction?”
