Chapter 1992: New Neighbor
“Oh, right, I think there’s a new neighbor on the floor above yours,” Elder Sister Mu said. “But I think the person hasn’t moved in. My husband said that he keeps seeing a moving company moving furniture and the like.”
As she said that, they saw a few more people carrying cardboard boxes and moving them in at once.
“These are all for the neighbor living above me?” Shi Xiaoya asked.
“Yeah.” Elder Sister Mu nodded. “We only know that someone’s moving in, but we’ve never seen the person at all.”
As they all used the lift to enter their houses, with each household per level, they would not disturb each other.
It was just that if they were unlucky and got people who were uncultured as their neighbors living above or below them, they might throw parties in the middle of the night and make a ruckus.
After all, being rich did not mean that they would be cultured people.
Basically, as long as they complained, the management would bring people up to stop the ruckus.
But that was troublesome too. If they met someone who was unreasonable and came right down to find you, there might even be people who would pester and quarrel with you.
Hence, it was better if everything was peaceful on both sides.
Shi Xiaoya had not met such neighbors before, but there was one tenant on the second floor who rented an apartment here.
It was probably because it was not his own home that he did not cherish it. The household living on the first floor could hear the person above jumping hard on the floor and running around, pounding so hard that even the chandelier lights in the house shook loudly.
There were many times when they had to seek the management’s help for mediation.
Although they used the lift to enter their homes, they did not have many chances of seeing each other when they went out. Still, there would be a time when they would inevitably bump into each other.
Like how it was now. Shi Xiaoya and Elder Sister Mu also bumped into each other, and they knew each other well.
The tenant on the second floor was on bad terms with almost every household on every other floor in the building.
Thankfully, his lease had expired and the other party moved out.
Shi Xiaoya then said, “I hope it’s someone who’s nice to get along with and has more etiquette. My previous neighbor above was especially nice. I wonder why the neighbor moved away? Did they rent their house out?”
Elder Sister Mu shook her head. “I heard they sold it.”
Elder Sister Mu was indeed a businesswoman. She could be said to be really good at socializing.
Very amazingly, she did not need to specially ask around and usually only asked a few things casually before she would be able to get her answer to the matter.
“And the other party offered to buy the apartment at a price double the market price on his own initiative, so the original owners felt that this was a good thing. Why not use this chance to make a profit? So they sold the apartment.”
The prices of their apartments here were indeed high, but double the price of this would be enough for them to buy an even more high-end luxury residence.
Who knows where exactly that new neighbor came from for him to be so willful?
“I have to rush off now.” Elder Sister Mu checked the time on her watch.
“Have a safe journey, Elder Sister Mu.” Shi Xiaoya smiled.
After sending off Elder Sister Mu, she then entered the lift together with Han Zhuoling.
Anyway, the new neighbor had yet to move in, and she still did not know what the person looked like.
Since she knew nothing yet, there was no point thinking about it now, so Shi Xiaoya decided not to bother about it.
After rushing for the whole day and rushing back home, Shi Xiaoya had no more energy left to cook.
Han Zhuoling ordered takeout, and Shi Xiaoya forced herself to unpack her luggage despite her tiredness.
She washed the things that needed to be washed, changed the things that needed to be changed, and dealt with them all.
Han Zhuoling once again praised his own sharpness and wit.
Luckily, he’d left his entire luggage at Shi Xiaoya’s place previously.
So now, when he changed out, he could change into the home clothes he left behind here.
As for his clothes today, Shi Xiaoya had contacted the butler to ask him to take Han Zhuoling’s clothes to wash.
In the district, every building had two butlers attached. Amenities like dry cleaners, supermarkets, and the like were available as well for the owners’ convenience.
Han Zhuoling went to find her right after he clocked out, so the clothes he wore to the production team was the formal suit he wore during work.
It had been sent to the dry cleaners now, so he could not wear it.
