A foreign city, dear you

In the afternoon of this day, Ye Lian got up from her lunch break and was making the bed when she suddenly heard someone talking in the Tianqin Pavilion house opposite the balcony.

Ye Lian immediately raised her neck to listen.

That's right, someone was talking in the Tianqin Pavilion house. The voice was so clear, he must be on the fourteenth floor.

During this time, Ye Lian has been paying attention to the house on the fourteenth floor of Tianqin Pavilion opposite the balcony.

The scaffolding on the outer walls of Tianqin Pavilion had all been dismantled a few months ago. In the months after the scaffolding was dismantled, there was little movement at Tianqin Pavilion. Ye Lian only occasionally sees people coming from the house opposite.

Ye Lian guessed that those people came to view the house. Tianqin Court should be selling its houses.

For a few moments, Ye Lian felt a little moved.

The house opposite is facing my own house through the window, with balconies to balconies, almost within arm's reach. It would be great if I bought it.

But there is no money. I spent the little money I had on buying a car for Cao Xueqian.

At this time, Ye Lian had no concept of investment, and such thoughts disappeared in her head.

Slowly, Ye Lian discovered that some of the other houses in Tianqin Pavilion were being renovated and had anti-theft windows installed on their windows.

But there hasn't been much movement in the house opposite Ye Lian's balcony.

Ye Lian wonders if this house has been sold? When will the renovation start? Most importantly, when should you start window security?

Why is Ye Lian so concerned about when the windows in that house will be secured?

There's a reason for that, right?

Because the house opposite is too close, Ye Lian wonders if the owner of the house will float out the security windows when installing them, and how much will float out?

Ye Lian's worry is that if the anti-theft windows of the opposite room open out too much, the "handshake building" will become an intimate "handshake building". In this case, the little distance between the two floors will be reduced, which will really make things worse! What about safety? What about privacy?

This is why Ye Lian pays special attention to the movement of the house opposite.

Ye Lian heard the voice and immediately ran to the balcony.

As expected, there was a man and a woman standing on the balcony of the house opposite. They looked like a couple. The man is slightly chubby and wears a blue lapel T-shirt; the woman is slim and wears a gray casual dress. Both of them looked downstairs from time to time.

Ye Lian also lowered her head and looked downstairs.

But the fourteenth floor is so high, everything on the ground is so small.

Ye Lian only saw a few men in work clothes standing in the alleyway downstairs. There seemed to be a stainless steel security window in front of them. Because there were bushes nearby, Ye Lian couldn't see clearly.

Ye Lian immediately became alert.

"Excuse me, are you the owners of this house?" Ye Lian asked politely.

The wife looked up at Ye Lian for a moment, said "yes" indifferently, and then looked down again.

"Is your house for self-occupation or for rent?"

This issue is also of concern to Ye Lian. Because Ye Lian prefers that the owner lives across the street, which is simpler and safer. If it is rented out, the tenants will come and go in all kinds of ways, which makes it more complicated and unsafe.

"Rent." The woman said two words lightly.

It's not what people want.

Ye Lian felt a little depressed.

But there is nothing we can do about it.

"So are you going to decorate?" Ye Lian continued to ask.

"Get ready." The woman in the leisure group replied with a precious word.

Ye Lian could feel the wife's impatient tone, so she directly asked her the question she was most concerned about: "Are you going to install security windows now?"

The wife looked up at Ye Lian again and squeezed out two words: "Yes."

Sure enough, I need to install anti-theft windows! The problem I have been worried about is coming!

"Your security window didn't float out, did it?" Ye Lian's tone became very concerned.

The wife glanced at Ye Lian sideways and said nothing. But her husband didn't seem to hear Ye Lian's question at all.

"Your security window didn't float out, did it?" Ye Lian asked repeatedly, raising her voice.

The wife raised her head in surprise and stared at Ye Lian with an expression that seemed to say: "Is there something wrong with this woman?"

This time the husband raised his head and asked Ye Lian, "What's the matter with you?"

Ye Lian quickly expressed her thoughts: "I just want to know if your anti-theft window has floated out? If it floats out, it won't work, and it will have to be redone."

When the blue-shirted man heard this, he snorted coldly and said, "This is a matter within our own family."

Ye Lian could hear the man's voiceover. What he meant was that Ye Lian, as an outsider, had no right to interfere with their installation of security windows.

Ye Lian knew that she was suspected of interfering, but she didn't want to. Isn't it because the two families were too close?

"I'm sorry." Ye Lian said as politely as possible: "I know this is a matter within your own family. But you see, our balconies are already so close. If you float out again, it will be even closer. , This is not good for both families, don’t you think?”

Ye Lian spoke very sincerely, and she hoped her words would impress the other person.

But it was obvious that the couple opposite was completely indifferent. They were not even willing to talk to Ye Lian.

Ye Lian knew she was bored, but she still wanted to continue working hard to convince them.

However, before she could speak again, the couple opposite simply left the balcony and entered the house.

Ye Lian can't see them anymore.

Are you trying to make me look cold? Refuse to communicate?

Doesn't what I just said make sense? Aren't they afraid of being too cramped and unsafe?

They are for rental, so they don’t have these concerns?

Ye Lian looked at the balcony opposite, feeling embarrassed and helpless. But she had no intention of leaving. She wanted to stand on the balcony, watch the changes, and protect the little little space outside the balcony.

After a while, two men in gray work clothes came to the opposite balcony, each carrying a thick bundle of rope.

"Are you here to install security windows?" Ye Lian asked.

"Yes." one of the men replied.

"Then do the security windows you made float outside?" Ye Lian asked eagerly.

Neither man answered. They are just busy with what they are doing. They leaned out towards the balcony and slowly lowered the rope holding them to their chests.

Ye Lian understood that they were going to hang up the security window with a rope.
