At this very moment, Ye Zhenghua was at home complaining to Meng Xueyun.
After a period of cold war, Ye Zhenghua finally calmed down with the mediation of the children and the gentle kindness of Meng Xueyun.
The two returned to their previous state.
Ye Zhenghua could not find peace until Ye Linchen returned.
He took a deep drag on his cigarette, his face grim and terrifying amidst the swirling smoke.
"What's wrong with Xiao Chen? She's been gone for so long and still won't come back. Even if she's really angry, she should have calmed down by now!"
"I've begged her several times, but she won't even open the door. It's outrageous! What kind of grudge do they hold against us that they hate us so much!"
"The election for workshop director is about to begin. If I don't come back soon, I'm afraid I won't be able to hold onto my position!"
In the past, democratic elections were just a formality, but this year he could sense from the words of his colleagues and superiors that his position was somewhat precarious.
It would be so embarrassing if I were to be rejected.
This has never happened before!
How can he ever face anyone in the workshop again!
Ye Zhenghua turned to Meng Xueyun and instructed her, "Go over there more often when you have time. I'll also talk about this in the workshop so that everyone can see our sincerity."
Meng Xueyun, however, was somewhat unwilling and turned her gaze to the twins.
They seem to be getting very close to that brat.
Otherwise, why would I always speak up for her?
Maybe if we let them go, that brat will listen to our advice and give them some face.
Meng Xueyun immediately said, "Xiao Chen is close to Xiao Nan and Xiao Bei, and they are siblings. They can try to persuade Lin Chen; it might be helpful."
Ye Zhenghua also looked up at the twins.
Yes, how come he didn't think of that?
He said, "Xiao Nan and Xiao Bei, you two should visit your sister more often recently. Go and sound her out first, and once her attitude softens, your mother and I will go."
"Remember, speak politely and don't make her angry."
The twins exchanged a glance.
"Dad, there's no point in us going," Ye Linbei said reluctantly.
It wasn't that he didn't want his sister to come back, but after everything that had happened, he realized that this home was no less dangerous for his sister than a den of dragons and tigers.
My sister is better off outside than at home.
“There’s no room for my sister at home, so there’s not enough room for her to stay when she comes back,” Ye Linnan added.
Ye Zhenghua clicked his tongue in annoyance.
"Why not? When she comes back, I'll buy a bunk bed so she can sleep in the same room as Xiaohan. I won't let her sleep in the living room."
Meng Zihan was taken aback, then lowered her eyes in dissatisfaction.
She didn't want to share a room with that country bumpkin.
Ye Linchen's clothes were similar to those of a beggar, and they all smelled the same!
If I put her clothes in the same closet as hers, they'll definitely smell bad too. How is she supposed to wear them then?
Besides, Ye Linchen is such a boorish person, he must snore at night, so she can forget about getting any sleep.
But she didn't dare to speak.
If her opposition prevents Ye Linchen from returning and affects her uncle's position, her uncle will definitely kick her out.
They didn't care whether she was a lucky charm or not.
Meng Xueyun was also unhappy. She stood up and pointed to the place where the balcony and the living room met.
"Why go through all that trouble? Just put a wire up here, grab a piece of cloth, and hang it up. Once the cloth is pulled up, the balcony becomes a separate room. Isn't that better than her and Xiaohan squeezing into one?"
Upon hearing this, everyone stood up and went to the balcony.
This balcony is about five square meters long and narrow, with glass windows on all four sides, forming a small room.
There used to be a wall and a door between the balcony and the living room. To make the living room more spacious, most of the residents in the dormitory area knocked down this wall and connected the living room and the balcony.
Now, a floor-to-ceiling wardrobe has been installed at one end of the balcony, and a clothes rack made of steel pipes is set up outside the balcony, with wires hanging from the top for drying clothes.
Meng Xueyun pointed to the balcony and started making plans.
"Look, there's just enough room for a small bed, and the rest of the path is wide enough to walk on."
She then pointed to the other end, "Put a desk and a stool here, and Xiao Chen can study here."
"Isn't it better than squeezing in with Xiaohan?"
"Many families in the dormitory area are like this."
Meng Zihan was of course willing.
As long as Ye Linchen doesn't share a room with her, she doesn't care where the Ye family places her.
Ye Zhenghua observed for a while and then nodded.
“Sure, put the cot in there. We don’t even need to buy a bed. We can just buy a desk at the secondhand market. It won’t cost much.”
"We don't need to buy any more fabric. We can just use the curtains in Xiaochen's room, and I'll buy another piece of fabric to make another curtain."
Meng Xueyun even started planning what was in Ye Linchen's room.
The twins, however, didn't like it.
The balcony is exposed to wind and rain, hot in summer and cold in winter; how can anyone live there?
Meng Xueyun likes to watch TV series in the living room at night, and she doesn't go to sleep until 11 or 12 o'clock. The balcony is not soundproof, so how can she rest?
If the balcony is really as good as Meng Xueyun says, why doesn't she let Meng Zihan live there?
Just as the two were internally complaining, Meng Zihan spoke up.
"Yes, this room is so nice. My sister will be so happy when she finds out."
"It's so nice, why don't you move in and give your bedroom to your sister?" Ye Linnan blurted out.
Meng Zihan was stunned for a long time before she said, "I'm willing. As long as my sister comes back, I can move to the balcony."
Meng Xueyun shrieked, "Xiaohan is about to take the college entrance exam! She needs to focus her energy on studying. Moving things around is such a hassle! Alright, alright, it's settled then!"
Ye Linbei glanced at Meng Xueyun with displeasure.
Ye Linchen moving back from outside was much more troublesome than Meng Zihan moving rooms.
