A foreign city, dear you

Chapter 240 Forced

The husband gestured to the two workers and said, "Forget it, let's install it again in two days."

The wife also hurriedly came to smooth things over: "It's okay, it's okay, we are neighbors, we can discuss anything."

Easy to negotiate? Things have taken a turn for the worse?

Ye Lian still couldn't believe it. She looked at the "big spider" on the wall. The "big spider" was indeed falling.

This is how the confrontation between the handshake buildings came to an end.

Ye Lian took a long breath, and her tense nerves finally relaxed.

Since the other party wants to shake hands and make peace, he can't appear too imprudent.

Ye Lian then softened her tone and said, "It's not that I'm being unreasonable and interfering with your installation of anti-theft windows. In fact, our two families are too close to each other, and there are many potential safety hazards. You also have so many anti-theft windows floating out, which makes it even more pointless." There is no security or privacy left.”

"Safety hazard? What safety hazards are there?" the wife asked in confusion.

Seeing the wife's disbelieving tone, Ye Lian explained to her: "Don't think that this is the fourteenth floor. It's high and there won't be any safety hazards. At the end of last year, your building didn't have scaffolding at that time. After demolishing it, my house was robbed. Do you know how the thief got into my house?"

The wife shook her head. The husband and the two workers were also curious and looked at Ye Lian, wanting to hear what Ye Lian had to say.

"I just crossed over from your house." Ye Lian said.

"Isn't it? So high?" The wife opened her mouth wide.

"You don't believe it? We didn't believe it at the time either." Ye Lian turned sideways, pointed to the window of her study on the right, and said: "At that time, the thief built a wooden board from the scaffolding of your house to the window sill of our study, and stepped on it. He stepped across the plank, and after stealing the things, he ran away from the plank."

The wife followed Ye Lian's finger and looked at the study window of Ye Lian's house with an incredible expression and said, "Really? So scary?"

"Isn't it scary?" Ye Lian pointed to the three anti-theft windows adjacent to the house opposite and continued: "Look at our anti-theft windows. They have all been reinforced. It was that time that I was scared by that thief."

Several people on the opposite side then looked at the security windows of Ye Lian's house and saw that those security windows were indeed densely reinforced.

"Did you see it?" Ye Lian said helplessly: "If it weren't for being too close or worrying about safety issues, who would be willing to reinforce their windows like this?"

"I really didn't expect it." The wife exclaimed.

"So," Ye Lian continued, "if you keep the anti-theft windows hanging out so much, when thieves come over, you can even save the wooden boards."

The two workers chuckled. They have put the security windows back into the ground.

"Besides," Ye Lian continued to reason, "it doesn't have much practical significance if you have the anti-theft windows hanging out so much. Your house is for rent, what can the tenant put on the anti-theft windows? Aren’t you afraid that we might use hooks to take away your tenants’ belongings?”

The wife smiled: "You don't know how to do this."

Ye Lian said sternly: "People are separated from each other, who can say for sure? Moreover, even if you think we won't, will your tenants doubt us? After all, we are the closest family."

"That too."

The wife agreed with Ye Lian and then said to her husband: "Then let's go? We'll come back to pretend in a few days."

The husband nodded.

……

The balcony opposite suddenly became empty and quiet, as if nothing had happened just now.

Ye Lian retracted the clothes drying pole and stared blankly at the balcony opposite, as if he was exhausted.

I've never been good at arguing or quarreling. This time, the usually weak and taciturn me suddenly burst out with such ferocious power!

I really didn’t care about anything just now.

What if the husband really snatched his clothes pole? Would you really throw a torch at their home?

I really can't believe that I would say such harsh words!

I have no choice but to be alone and forced to be so strong.

If Qian were here today, where would I be needed to deal with it? Qian Ding has his own way to solve all this.

Thinking of Cao Xueqian, the fear, anger and helplessness Ye Lian had just endured all surged into her heart and turned into deep grievances.

Dear Qian, what are you doing now? do you know? Your dear Lian is under great pressure today to defend the balcony at home! She was really worried and scared at that time!

Ye Lian couldn't wait and wanted to call Cao Xueqian immediately to talk. Cao Xueqian is her support and strength at any time!

Ye Lian walked towards the phone in the living room, feeling that her legs were still weak.

She picked up the phone and reached out to dial the familiar phone numbers. However, she hesitated again, her fingers staying on the phone buttons.

Forget it, it’s better not to fight. What if he has something important at the moment? Doesn't that bother him?

Besides, what happened just now cannot be explained clearly in a few words.

Thinking like this, Ye Lian put the microphone back again.

Although she knew that Cao Xueqian's cell phone was on for her 24 hours a day, she still didn't want to affect his work easily.

Let's wait until Qian comes back in the evening and tell him slowly then.

*

Cao Xueqian now drives to work, and his return time is usually half an hour earlier than before. It's about the same today, I got home around 7:30.

Cao Xueqian didn't know that Ye Lian had been looking forward to his return since the afternoon.

Cao Xueqian opened the door and shouted: "Honey, I'm back."

No one saw Ye Lian coming to greet her, nor did she see Ye Lian busy in the kitchen. The food was already placed on the dining table.

Lanshan was doing homework in the room, and the lamp on the table was the championship prize in the last real kung fu "Car Race to the World" competition.

"Where's mom?" Cao Xueqian asked.

"I don't know." Lan Shan raised his head: "He was still here just now."

"I'm here." Ye Lian's voice came from the balcony.

Cao Xueqian walked to the balcony and asked strangely: "What are you doing here? Not turning on the light?"

Ye Lian stood quietly and did not answer Cao Xueqian's words.

Cao Xueqian turned on the light. He noticed that Ye Lian seemed to have something on his mind, so he asked, "What's wrong with you?"

Ye Lian couldn't explain her feelings.

She was originally looking forward to Cao Xueqian's return and had a lot of things to say to him.

But now that Cao Xueqian is back, she doesn't know where to start.

"It's nothing." Ye Lianyan said three words insincerely.

"Really? Then let's go eat." Cao Xueqian said.

That won't work, Ye Lian thought to herself, I need to tell what happened in the afternoon first.

"The people from across the street came over to install security windows this afternoon." Ye Lian spoke in a low voice.
