Chapter 123 Decoration Master
Jun Lan: "Please sit down and talk. I just cleaned this place and it's very clean."
Wu Mei: "Thank you, you should be Miss Lin Junlan, right? I should call you Mrs. Yang now. My husband has told me about you."
Jun Lan: "Actually, why have you become like this now? You shouldn't look like this in my impression."
Wu Mei: "Actually, I'm a breast cancer patient, and it's in the late stages."
Junlan: "I'm sorry."
Wu Mei shook her head. "There's nothing to be sorry about. Weijie has apologized to me many times. Sometimes, even the doctor can't heal himself, let alone his family. But I know he has tried his best. This place holds the best memories of the four of us, so I want to stay here and spend the last days of my life."
Junlan felt very guilty and suspected that Chen Weijie had ulterior motives in his eagerness to get the house. Unexpectedly, it was for this reason: his wife didn't have much time left, so he wanted to try his best to help Wu Mei fulfill her last wish in her remaining years.
Jun Lan: "I understand. Then I will ask Mr. Situ to go with you to the Housing Authority tomorrow to handle the name transfer procedures."
Wu Mei: "Thank you so much, Mrs. Yang. I know it's not easy to convince Situ."
Jun Lan: "No, he was very happy when he heard that you were the buyers. He should be secretly glad that the house has finally found an owner who truly loves it again."
Chen Weijie: "Okay, Xiaomei has to go to the hospital for a follow-up visit! We'll leave first then."
Jun Lan: "Okay, take care of yourself. I'll call you after Situ and I confirm the time for tomorrow tonight!"
Chen Weijie: "Thank you very much. I will definitely give you a big red envelope after the matter is completed!"
Jun Lan: "No need. Helping others is the basis of happiness. As long as your wife is happy, that's all that matters."
Chen Weijie and Wu Mei smiled at each other and left.
Jun Lan continued to clean. After she finished, she called Situ.
The call had just been connected when the doorbell rang again.
"Did they drop something?" Jun Lan looked around and went to open the door.
An unfamiliar muscular man appeared outside the door.
Junlan: "Who are you?"
The muscular man looked lewd and said, "Miss, didn't you say you wanted to go down the drain? I'm not here yet?"
Jun Lan: "Why did you come just now?"
Muscle man: "I don't know why there are so many people repairing plumbers recently. I can't handle it all by myself!"
Junlan opened the door and let him in.
Jun Lan: "It's right in the bathroom, by the bathtub. Go over there and tell me what's going on. Otherwise, people downstairs will keep complaining about me, and it'll ruin my relationship with the neighbors. I'll be embarrassed."
Muscular man: "Okay, I'm a professional!" He raised his eyebrows and winked at Jun Lan.
Junlan showed him the wedding ring on her right hand.
"I am already the child's mother."
The muscular man immediately put away his frivolous look when he heard it.
"You should have said it earlier! Turns out she's just a yellow-faced woman. What a waste of expression."
He carried a bunch of tool boxes and headed to the bathroom.
Jun Lan: "Master, what should we do in this situation?"
Muscle man: "Wow, you have a bathtub here. It's not easy to deal with. I have to remove the bathtub first."
Junlan: "Do you really have to remove the bathtub? The tenants who are moving in don't like to change the original appearance of the house."
Muscle man: "Madam, did you see it too? The leak should be under the bathtub, and the water pipe is also underneath. How can I work if I don't move it? Or do you think I have the ability of a magician to work with objects from the air? Do you know how heavy this bathtub is? Do you think I'm looking for trouble?"
Jun Lan took a look at the bathtub. She really couldn't work without moving it. She could only reluctantly agree: "Be careful, and put it back for her when the time comes."
The muscular man immediately started to dismantle it. "Let me tell you right up front, this bathtub is a consumable item. I can only assure you that I will be as careful as possible, but I can't say for sure if I can keep it intact in the end."
He tinkered with the electric drill and saw for a while and finally took the bathtub out, raising clouds of dust around.
Muscle man: "Madam, don't just watch and do nothing. Help me move this thing."
Jun Lan reluctantly moved the bathtub towards the bathroom with him.
Jun Lan: "What the hell is this? I never knew this thing was so heavy!"
Muscle man: "Madam, you dropped something."
Jun Lan rolled her eyes at him and said unhappily, "My husband's last name is Yang."
Muscular man: "Mrs. Yang, I really didn't lie to you, you really dropped something." He pointed at a small object flashing with a cold light in the dust.
Junlan walked over and picked it up, and found that it was a men's platinum ring with the three English letters CWJ engraved on it.
"Why is there a men's ring here? The look and style don't look like Situ's! And the size is wrong too? What does CWJ mean? It should be the abbreviation of the owner of this ring, right? Then who is he?" Jun Lan fell into deep thought.
"Madam, Madam..."
The muscular man's shout instantly brought Jun Lan back to reality.
Jun Lan: "Why are you shouting? What's the matter?"
Muscular man: "Isn't it just a ring I picked up? What are you staring at? Could you please move it for me? Can't you see you're hindering my work?"
Only then did Jun Lan realize that she was standing where the bathtub used to be.
"Sorry, sorry." She quickly made room for the muscular man. At this time, her cell phone rang. It was Situ calling.
"Hey, why did you call me just now? It rang once and then hung up."
"Oh, the decorator just arrived at the door, so I hung up the phone and went to open the door for him."
"So what do you want from me?"
"It's Wu Mei..." When Jun Lan was about to tell Situ everything that had just happened, she saw the ring on her hand and hesitated again.
Situ: "What happened to Wu Mei?"
Junlan: "Did you know she has advanced breast cancer?"
Situ: “I’ve heard of it.”
Jun Lan: "Then why didn't you tell me?"
Situ: "This isn't something good to be publicized. Besides, you don't even know her, so why should I tell you? Do you have anything else to say? Otherwise, I'm hanging up!"
Jun Lan: "Also, the renovation engineer you recommended is unreliable. The water leak is quite troublesome and difficult to fix. He insisted on removing the bathtub. I guess he will have to pay extra."
"Squeak, squeak, squeak, squeak" bursts of harsh sounds of electric saws and chiseling walls came from the bathroom.
Situ: "I thought it was something else. You don't understand decoration. Just listen to him." After saying that, he hung up the phone.
Junlan put away her phone and ring and went to the bathroom, where she found dark red bloodstains left behind under the floor tiles that had been chiseled open.
Muscle man: "Oh my god, something must have happened here. You must give me a big red envelope when the time comes."
Jun Lan: "Why? Are you trying to take advantage of this opportunity to extort money?"
