Ring-ring-ring, ring-ring-ring went hisRu-Yi “You ass Till ere you planning to hide it from me?”
Xia Lei paused and asked, confused, “Hide what from you?”
“One million! You made oneRu-Yi
“Oh, so you’re talking about that,” Xia Lei laughed, “Sorry I forgot to tell you”
“You did it on purpose, didn’t you!” Jiang Ru-Yi spoke indignantly, “Even the feot 20,000 as a bonus but I didn’t get a cent!”
“You’re not even an eive you a bonus for?”
“I don’t care! I want clothes, s! You have to buy them for me”
Xia Lei was speechless
“That’s a pro up without waiting for Xia Lei’s response
Xia Lei stared at the phone in his hands, at a loss for words He then talked to it as if it were Jiang Ru-Yi, “You! What a because you want it? You want s so I have to buy them for you? Really!”
Xia Lei wandered the streets andRu-Yi fro shop and spent over a thousand yuan on a dress for her
Back in his neighbourhood, Xia Lei did not go ho Ru-Yi’s door He reached out and knocked on her door
There was no response froth to knock on the door while saying, “Ru-Yi? It’sRu-Yi’s voice finally caht; who’s knocking on my door?”
“It’s me, Xia Lei,” he said
“Xia Lei? I don’t know anyone by that na Ru-Yi’s voice
Xia Lei was speechless
“I’ve broken all ties with you,” caive the dress to Xue,” teased Xia Lei
The flat door opened with a crash
The instant the door opened, a Spring-like wind blew and Xia Lei was temporarily transported to a field full of flowers in bloo Ru-Yi stood in the doorway dressed in a bathrobe Her hair et and she looked like she had just finished taking a bath It looked like she had rushed out upon hearing the knocking and had not had ti to her skin, and a ht presented itself The bathrobe had dry spots and wet spots, darker places and lighter places, some parts flat while some parts stuck out, and some places… The body of a wo brought fresh novelty and mystery
Xia Lei froze, unsure of how he should interact with her
Jiang Ru-Yi behaved as though she earing a down jacket and quilted cotton pants She bowed at the waist, as though greeting royalty and had a smile on her face, “Boss Lei, please come in What would you like to have?”
Xia Lei’s lips were dry, “Anything Beer, give me a can of beer”
“What beer? You know I don’t drink beer Will tap water be okay?” Jiang Ru-Yi’s line of sight was focused on the box in Xia Lei’s hand She couldn’t wait to put on the dress inside
This was Jiang Ru-Yi after all Xia Lei grinned and his feelings settled Wasn’t it just Jiang Ru-Yi in a da Ru-Yi! He walked past her into the flat, then sat on the sofa in the living room He did not put the box on the table but behind hi Ru-Yi was usually the one to tease hi to let it pass when the opportunity arose to tease her
Jiang Ru-Yi closed the door and walked over She seated herself opposite Xia Lei, not even getting his, and two-thirds of her white legs were exposed to the air Her back pressed into the sofa and her ar up the bathrobe to reveal a patch of white softness below the collar; ae Her posture was quite open and she was at ease Opposite her, however, Xia Lei appeared uneasy and didn’t knohere to look
“Where’s the dress you bought ht it?”
This attitude she displayed was that of a spoilt daughter of the landlord in ancient ti indentured worker
Xia Lei sive it to you if you callRu-Yi quickly changed her words and said sweetly, “Big Brother”
“Good girl” Xia Lei held his chin, “Do a runalk for Big Brother”
Jiang Ru-Yi froze, then suddenly snatched up a pillow and rushed at Xia Lei, fierce as a tigress, “You! You think you’re a patron of a brothel?”
Xia Lei froze too Patron? Why did she use such a word as ‘patron’?
