Chapter 1890: Are You Looking for a Boyfriend?

~7 min read 1,350 words

Wei Yangyang was lost in thought while contacting the staff from the gas company.

Once the time was confirmed, she looked around the apartment again.

She had assumed that if a man lived here, the room would be kept very messy.

But it wasn't.

It was still neat and tidy, and there was a faint fragrance.

Speaking of the fragrance...

Wei Yangyang turned her head and discovered an aromatherapy balm right beside her.

She picked it up and sniffed it, confirming that the pleasant scent in the room was emanating from it.

Wei Yangyang liked it quite a bit and even wanted to buy one just like it.

As a result, she searched for it online.

It was super expensive!

She thought about it and felt that this must have been left behind by her friend.

That guy Yi Xiang, who calculated every meal he ate, couldn't possibly have bought such an expensive aromatherapy balm.

After sniffing it again, Wei Yangyang put it down and then took her laptop out of her bag.

She carried her computer with her everywhere now, so that her work wouldn't be affected no matter where she was.

And when Wei Yangyang was working, she was completely absorbed.

She felt like she had only been busy for a little while when the technician arrived.

In reality, over an hour had already passed.

It had turned dark outside as well.

Wei Yangyang took a look and discovered that there were large patches of dark clouds in the sky; she feared it would rain soon.

The technician came in to take a look, performed a routine inspection, and finally asked Wei Yangyang to sign the paperwork.

While Wei Yangyang was signing, the technician couldn't help but sigh, "It really isn't easy to get in here."

"Sorry, my friend is very busy and sometimes doesn't pick up the phone."

"Then I'll just leave your number; if there are any other difficult issues, I'll contact you."

Wei Yangyang had wanted to refuse.

However, there couldn't always be problems with the gas, so Wei Yangyang casually agreed, "Alright then."

Wei Yangyang

handed over the signed document.

The technician then left with his toolbox.

As for Wei Yangyang, once she closed the windows, it was time to head back to the company.

But just as Wei Yangyang walked to the balcony, she saw a familiar car.

She checked the license plate number again...

Li Xingyan's?

On Wei Yangyang's side, just as she confirmed the license plate number, the car door below was opened by someone.

Li Xingyan got out of the car with someone, chatting as they walked, seemingly heading into a tea restaurant.

After walking only a few steps, he felt someone looking at him.

He stopped in his tracks and looked up.

Then, his gaze met Wei Yangyang's.

This left both of them stunned.

Li Xingyan, however, was not as cold toward Wei Yangyang as he usually was.

Wei Yangyang couldn't pretend she hadn't seen him, so she smiled at him and waved her hand.

Li Xingyan's friend saw him stop suddenly and look up with a gentle expression in his eyes, finding it very novel.

Out of curiosity, he also looked up, following Li Xingyan's gaze.

And then...

He wore an inscrutable expression and asked, "An acquaintance?"

"Mm, a..."

Li Xingyan suddenly realized he didn't quite know how to define Wei Yangyang.

But his friend helped by coming up with one: "A female confidante?"

"Not a confidante, she is very infuriating."

"Then she's a tormenting little enchantress."

This description was quite...

Li Xingyan suddenly frowned and said to his friend, "Stop summarizing randomly!"

After speaking, he couldn't help but look toward Wei Yangyang again.

Yet he discovered that a hand had reached out from behind Wei Yangyang...

Li Xingyan's pupils constricted!

That hand rested on Wei Yangyang's shoulder.

Wei Yangyang hadn't noticed someone had come up behind her, and she was startled by the tap.

When she turned her head back...

"Why

are you back so early?"

The person who came in was Yi Xiang.

He said, "Don't mention it. Where I was shooting the commercial, it started raining, so work was canceled. However, it hasn't started raining here yet."

"Mm, but it'll probably start soon."

"But the trip wasn't in vain; I brought back the breakfast they provided. These little cookies are especially delicious, you should try one."

Wei Yangyang did not want to eat.

But Yi Xiang had already torn open the packaging and stuffed one into her hand.

Taking a bite like this...

Green grape flavor?

And it was very delicious.

The key was that Wei Yangyang had never eaten them before.

Like a little rabbit, she ate the whole cookie, then concluded, "It is very delicious."

"I wouldn't recommend something if it wasn't good."

Yi Xiang looked outside and said, "It's going to rain, don't stand there."

As he spoke, he pulled Wei Yangyang with one hand and closed the window with the other.

The two figures disappeared from the balcony.

Li Xingyan's friend had also finished watching the show.

He had wanted to say that this little enchantress was already taken.

But after glancing at Li Xingyan's expression...

He didn't dare to make a sound.

As for Wei Yangyang in the room, she heard the sound of raindrops hitting the window.

It really was raining.

Perhaps because of the rain, Wei Yangyang felt a little uneasy.

Yi Xiang, on the other hand, was very casual; he even stuffed the remaining cookies into Wei Yangyang's bag, telling her to eat them when she got back to the company.

This action of his was very much like a child sharing snacks.

Wei Yangyang found it a bit funny and said, "This is your breakfast, you should keep it."

"No, cookies have high calories, you help me eat them; I need to maintain my figure."

Maintaining his figure—that was just an excuse.

After all, Wei Yangyang had seen just how much this man could eat when he was digging into a meal.

But she did not

expose him, just picked up her bag and said, "You should rest, I should go back to work too."

"Ah? But it's raining now."

"My car is parked downstairs; I'll drive to work, it won't delay anything."

"Then you need an umbrella, I here..."

Yi Xiang had wanted to find an umbrella for Wei Yangyang, but halfway through his sentence, he sheepishly said, "I don't have an umbrella here."

"It's fine, I have one."

Wei Yangyang usually kept a folding umbrella on hand.

Now she took the umbrella out, placed it on the table, and said, "You keep it as a spare, I have another one in my car."

"That's not good."

"What's not good about it? Just consider it a return gift for eating your cookies."

Following Wei Yangyang's logic, Yi Xiang asked in return, "Big sister has helped me so much, how can I repay you?"

"I don't need repayment; after all, I don't lack anything."

"Then do you lack a boyfriend?"

Yi Xiang's question was easy to overthink.

Wei Yangyang tried hard not to let her thoughts wander; she only replied based on Yi Xiang's question: "This isn't a question of lacking or not, but of not needing one. Men will only affect the speed at which I make money!"

"Then what if a man just gives the money to you directly?"

"That's a kept-partner relationship, even more unacceptable!"

Looking at Wei Yangyang's righteous expression, Yi Xiang smiled and said, "Big sister, you're really cute."

As he spoke, he went to give her a hug.

But this time, Wei Yangyang hardened her heart and refused.

She even said with a straight face, "You can't just hug big sister, because your physique is too good, big sister will get a nosebleed."

The truth would make people embarrassed.

But Wei Yangyang felt that being embarrassed just once could avoid future intimate contact, which was very worthwhile.

But after hearing this, Yi Xiang asked, "Big sister, why would you get a nosebleed

ah, is it because of internal heat?"

Mm...
