Xiang Xiaokui locked the little lamb and reluctantly carried a large box of Durex to Unit 1.
However, as she walked into the building, her initial little complaint turned into a look of surprise—
It’s so grand!
Although it looked similar to other high-rise apartments from the outside, the interior was magnificent. The overall European and American design, with Roman columns and crystal chandeliers, even the marble floors were shining, almost like mirrors.
Every corner she walked through seemed to sparkle with three big words—money, money, money!
No wonder the security guard looked so strange when he heard that a resident here had a delivery. If someone living here needed anything, they probably just needed to make a phone call, and a special assistant or secretary driving a Bentley would deliver it to them.
Using the elevator card given by the security guard, Xiang Xiaokui swiped to the sixteenth floor. There were only two units per floor, so it was easy for her to find 1608.
She knocked on the door, but no one answered for a long time. She pressed the doorbell twice, and after a minute, she heard some movement inside.
Xiang Xiaokui couldn’t hear very clearly, so she instinctively pressed her ear against the door. She could indeed hear footsteps, getting closer and closer, and then stopping—
Huh?
Xiang Xiaokui hadn’t reacted yet when the door suddenly opened with a swish. Without the support of the door and with the box in her arms, Xiang Xiaokui naturally stumbled forward, without any grace.
Fortunately, the owner of 1608 was quick to react. With a large hand, he reached out and skillfully caught the box, as well as her.
Xiang Xiaokui almost wanted to cry from her own stupidity. The first time she eavesdropped on someone, she was caught red-handed by the owner! It was too tragic!
While she was still immersed in self-disgust and regret, the man standing opposite suddenly spoke, “Who are you looking for?”
Three simple words. They might sound ordinary to most people, but she wasn’t an ordinary person, she was a voice actress!
What’s with that lazy and relaxed tone? His voice was deep, clear, like aged liquor brewed in a cellar for years, especially with a hoarse sleepiness mixed in at the end, like a huge magnet attracting her little heart to beat irregularly.
Xiang Xiaokui had no resistance to men with nice voices, especially when the voice of this host seemed so similar to the one she admired the most…
But of course, it couldn’t be His majesty~
Wen Bu Yu had been living in England for years, and his Baidu Baike1 and Weibo profiles also listed England as his location. Including the last time he wished a certain CV a happy birthday, he mentioned the issue of time difference…
She was surprised that she could meet someone whose voice was so similar to the Emperor’s, but she was even more shocked when she saw the real person without lifting her head—
The chance of encountering a half-naked handsome man while delivering packages was simply as rare as seeing a ghost during the day.
The man had probably been sleeping just now, with his short hair neatly arranged except for a small tuft that was out of place, which was quite cute against the elite aura he exuded. Then, Xiang Xiaokui’s gaze casually swept over the man’s bare upper body, one, two, three… six-pack abs and even a V-line, it was simply outrageous! ¯﹃¯
Fortunately, the man had put on a pair of shorts, although they were loosely tied and even the waistband wasn’t tightened, at least it wouldn’t make her too shy. But even so, Xiang Xiaokui could feel her blood rushing, and her facial temperature rising.
“Who are you looking for?” The man’s tone contained a hint of impatience.
Hearing this, Xiang Xiaokui suddenly woke up from her dream, and her hand holding the box tightened slightly, “Um… I’m here to deliver a package.”
The man’s gaze shifted from Xiang Xiaokui’s blushing face to the conspicuously marked logo on the box, his thick brows lightly raised, “Are you sure this is for me?”
The nonchalant tone of the other party, as if receiving such a thing was not embarrassing at all, made Xiang Xiaokui uncertain.
She lowered her head to check the delivery slip again and asked, “Mr Li… what’s that in the middle?”
The middle character was not very clear due to printing issues.
A hint of amusement rose in the man’s dark eyes, rare good temper correcting his name: “Li Qingbei.”
“Well, then it’s you.” Xiang Xiaokui decisively concluded and handed the delivery slip to him to sign and confirm.
After signing, Li Qingbei took the box, the familiar handwriting on the slip made him instantly recognize who had sent such a boring thing to him. He was about to go back to his room to make a ‘grateful’ phone call, but when he raised his head, his eyes met with the eyes of the person who should have already left.
“Anything else?” he asked.
“Uh…” She wouldn’t admit that she stayed because she lusted after the handsome guy, would she? With the other party asking directly like that, Xiang Xiaokui’s brain short-circuited for a moment, not knowing how to respond, and blurted out, “Please take care of yourself.”
Serious and earnest, even with a touch of concern for the country and the people, her tone almost moved herself.
The man’s expression remained calm, but Xiang Xiaokui could actually see a slight twitch at the corner of his eye.
Realizing what she had just said, the temperature on Xiang Xiaokui’s face rose again, not daring to look at the other party’s expression anymore, she immediately slipped into the elevator and waved her sleeve, not taking away a cloud2…
Escaping from the golden glow of the building, Xiang Xiaokui cautiously confirmed that no one was following her, and then patted her chest with lingering fear.
It was really unfortunate to encounter a man with a nice voice and good looks, only to find out that he was an exhibitionist. Ah, what a sad world!
Xiang Xiaokui took the car back to the dormitory, intending to share her afternoon encounter with Cheng Lv, but her roommate was nowhere to be seen. Just as she lay down on the bed to rest for a while, she received a call from her brother.
“Have you finished delivering the packages?”
“They’re all delivered. Brother, how are you going to thank me?”
Xiang Yifan ignored her last words and asked directly, “Why didn’t you come back to the company after delivering them?”
“I’m at school now.”
Xiang Yifan was surprised, “How did you get back to school?”
“I’m…” Xiang Xiaokui realized halfway through that something was wrong, and she sat up in bed in shock—
Oh no! Her car…The little lamb!
