Chapter 2

Because the original owner in the book was just an insignificant follower, the book didn't mention that she lived next to the female lead. Lin Ran also had no idea that the woman she just encountered was the female lead. After returning home, she grabbed a bottle of milk from the fridge and drank it, finally feeling somewhat comfortable.

Soon, the workers transporting construction materials arrived downstairs, and someone called Lin Ran.

After Lin Ran answered the phone, she opened her door upstairs and waited for the workers to transport the building materials inside. Originally, she had wanted to reinforce her entire house. However, due to time constraints and lack of funds, and also because the book mentioned that after the zombie outbreak, the military on Q2 planet did not disappear completely; they built shelters in Jiangbei City. So, Lin Ran considered her current home as temporary. She might move to a shelter later.

The workers carrying construction materials started to enter one after another, stacking all the building materials in the living room.

The foreman inspected Lin Ran's house and discussed with her, "Miss Lin, there are a lot of things in your bedroom. Do you need us to pack them and temporarily place them in the living room? Because all six surfaces of your bedroom need reinforcement. After that, we also need to weld the steel frame onto the original steel bars of your house to ensure stability. Therefore, we'll need to dismantle all the custom wardrobes in your bedroom, remove half of the walls and floor, and once all the steel plates are securely in place, we'll restore the room to its original condition. Does that work for you?"

Lin Ran nodded, "That's fine. When welding the steel plates to the steel bars, don't weld them at specific points. My requirement is for all joints to be welded. Even if you have to use explosives, you must not let my room detach from the original steel bars of the building. Can you meet this requirement?"

The foreman awkwardly smiled at Lin Ran, "Yes, you're our high-end service client, of course, we can."

Internally, the foreman thought that these young people were seriously ill. They wanted to turn the house into a fortress. But outwardly, he maintained a friendly demeanour. After all, if it weren't for clients like this, where would their company make money? Renovating such a house was much more profitable than a normal one.

"Let's get started quickly then. I have something else to do and need to go out first. I'll leave the house matters to you. Remember, everything must be welded securely. Otherwise, I won't pay the rest of the money." Lin Ran looked at the foreman and emphasized again.

"Don't worry, when we start welding, I'll send you a WeChat video to ensure your satisfaction. Is this phone number linked to your WeChat? Let me add you and I'll send the video later." Their company was expensive, but their corresponding service was impeccable.

T/N: WeChat is a Chinese social media.

Lin Ran agreed. She added the foreman on WeChat and then hurried downstairs. Soon, a large truck from the supermarket arrived at the community.

The security guards in the community, for some reason, stopped the truck and questioned the driver, "Where are you heading? We don't allow unfamiliar vehicles inside the community."

"We're here just to deliver goods. Once delivered, we'll leave. At most, we'll stay half a day."

"No, you can't. You're blocking the road for others," the security guard persisted.

Lin Ran happened to see this scene from a distance. It seemed that even Yan Wang (King Yama) could meet a tough little ghost.

T/N: I believe this is a reference to a Chinese mythology, King Yan, who is the god of death.
