Chapter 152: Pervert

After finishing breakfast, Xia Youqing immediately lay back down on the sofa to sleep. Seeing her lazy appearance, it was truly hard for Jiang Sui not to doubt whether she had actually found a job.

“Oh, I just got back from a business trip, so it’s vacation time now. Won’t you let me rest properly during my vacation?”

Facing the suspicion from her daughter, Xia Youqing stretched her limbs on the sofa.

“If you’re going to sleep, at least go into the Bedroom.”

“Sigh, I know, I know. Sui’er is getting more and more naggy… oh wait, I mean more and more skilled at housekeeping.”

Xia Youqing pinched her cheek as she got up.

“It seems like sending you to find a job wasn’t without its benefits. You’ve become sensible early, so you’ll be able to marry out soon.”

With that, she turned and slipped into the Bedroom. Halfway there, she realized she had forgotten her shoes and had to come back for them.

Jiang Sui watched her the whole time in silence, as if looking at a troublesome child.

Not until the sound of the door closing rang out did she let out a sigh and mutter to herself:

‘So the original Jiang Sui wasn’t a sensible child?’

It felt like there was quite a big difference from what she had imagined. It seemed the girl wasn’t a good kid who knew how to take care of her parents and herself, but rather felt a bit like she had been spoiled.

Fortunately, Xia Youqing was used to the current Jiang Sui and didn’t suspect her daughter’s changes. Even if she did, she probably couldn’t find anything out. She would never imagine her daughter would be soul seized by a man overnight.

After cleaning up the takeout containers, the mobile phone in Jiang Sui’s pocket vibrated again. Pulling it out, she saw a voice message from Lu Yunze.

She tapped it:
“I’m almost ready. Send me your home address. Remember to wait for me; it might take some time.”

His tone seemed a bit urgent. It looked like he had just escaped from all the trouble. She could imagine Lu Yunze sending a voice message while running away.

After listening to the message several times, Jiang Sui sat down to think.

He was nearly half a day later than the agreed time, so she definitely had to squeeze him for it. At the very least, he should stay for lunch, right?

Jiang Sui’s little schemes became active again. It would be better to tell her mother about a guest coming over first; otherwise, she feared Lu Yunze’s arrival might startle her.

Jiang Sui got up and went to her mother’s bedroom door, knocking twice before entering.

“Mom? Mom?”

The room Xia Youqing was currently using was the one she used to share with her husband. Now that her husband had run away, she could enjoy the large bed in this room all by herself.

Upon entering, Jiang Sui saw Xia Youqing sleeping soundly. To put it simply, her sleeping posture was quite unrefined — exactly like a slovenly uncle who liked eating discount meal deals, staying up late, and watching soccer games.

After calling out to her a few more times with no response, Jiang Sui had no choice but to give up.

She would let her sleep for a while. She would go take the things out of her luggage and tidy up the Bedroom that hadn’t been used for over six months.

Meanwhile, at the Luo Family Residence.

“Huh? Why are you suddenly asking me for help?”

Luo Yao could hardly believe her ears upon hearing Luo Heng’s request.

“Don’t you keep many mistresses outside? I don’t think you’re lacking for women.”

“Who’s keeping mistresses? I’m very pure and honest.” Luo Heng truly didn’t understand where his sister had heard such rumors.

“So you want me to introduce one of my friends to you?” Luo Yao repeated his request.

“It doesn’t necessarily have to be like that. Remember to invite me to the next Tea Party; I can scout for myself,” Luo Heng chuckled.

“Brother, do you know what your expression looks like right now?”

“What does it look like?”

“Like a pervert who likes to tail girls.”

“Hey, how can you talk to your brother like that? Just tell me if you’ll help or not.”

Luo Heng immediately became anxious.

“Fine, fine, I’ll help. Isn’t it enough that I’ll help?”

Having been pestered by him for so long, Luo Yao’s ears were practically growing callouses. She quickly covered her ears and fled back to her own room.

As for Luo Heng, he dropped his expression after she left and spoke to someone behind him.

“Alright, no need to hide anymore.”

“Thanks, Luo Heng.”

Lu Yunze, who had been hiding in the back, finally came out and sent another voice message to Jiang Sui.

“If it weren’t for you, I don’t know how long Luo Yao would have nagged me.”

“I made a huge sacrifice to help you.” Luo Heng suddenly hooked an arm around his shoulder. “Don’t forget me when it’s time for the wedding wine or the full-month wine.”

“What wedding wine or full-month wine? What’s going on in that head of yours?” Lu Yunze immediately threw off his arm.

“Aren’t you going to that Little Maid’s house to meet her parents? Damn, if it weren’t for your rapid progress and my reluctance to disturb you, I never would have agreed.”

“I am indeed going to her house, but not to meet her parents. I’m just going to…”

He wanted to say he was going to help, but Lu Yunze suddenly remembered that Jiang Sui had already taken those snacks with her.

If he went to her house just like that, wouldn’t it really be…

Lu Yunze took a sharp breath. Seeing him unable to speak, Luo Heng chuckled deviously twice.

“It’s fine to lie to your buddy, just don’t lie to yourself. Go on, don’t keep her waiting too long.”

“Fine.”

Lu Yunze couldn’t explain further. This time, he was truly setting off for Jiang Sui’s home.

Unfortunately, he hadn’t sent his beloved Street Bike back home this time, so Lu Yunze had to take a taxi to her place.

After reaching the neighborhood Jiang Sui sent, Lu Yunze headed straight for the corresponding building, climbed the stairs, and arrived at the correct floor.

On the way, he naturally hadn’t forgotten to buy some Gifts. It would be truly impolite to show up empty-handed.

He coughed once and then pressed the doorbell.

*Ding-dong —*

Almost the instant the first doorbell rang, the door was opened.

The person who opened the door was, unsurprisingly, Jiang Sui.

“Yo, sorry to keep you waiting.”

“I thought the Young Master had stood me up.”

“Look at what you’re saying. Am I that kind of person?”

“Please come in, Young Master.”

After entering the house, how should he put it? It was a bit smaller than he had imagined.

Jiang Sui poured him some water. Lu Yunze didn’t know what to ask, so he spoke casually.

“Is it just you at home?”

“My Mother is sleeping in the Bedroom.”

“Oh, oh. We can’t be too loud then.”

“Mm.”

After giving him water, Jiang Sui checked the time.

“It’s almost time for lunch. Eating a little bit for Breakfast was fine, but we can’t skip lunch.”

“I’ll go with you.”

“The Young Master should sit for a while. Look at you, you’re covered in sweat.”

“But you can’t just let me do nothing, right?”

“The Young Master is clearly a guest, yet you’re so eager to prove yourself.”

Jiang Sui laughed a couple of times.

“In that case, I’ll have to trouble the Young Master to help me tidy up my Bedroom.”

“Ah, okay.”

Jiang Sui led him to her Bedroom and gave him a brief explanation before heading out.

“The Young Master won’t rummage through my clothes, right?” she said meaningfully before leaving.

“How could I? Am I that kind of person?”

“I’m joking. If it’s the Young Master, you can even use my clothes however you like.”

“Huh?”

Use? Use them how?

Until Jiang Sui left, Lu Yunze didn’t understand what she meant. He simply gave up thinking and started taking care of her things.

Jiang Sui had explained where everything should go in great detail. Even if he encountered something he was unsure about, he could just call and ask her.

Although Lu Yunze wasn’t as familiar with the room as Jiang Sui, his tidying speed wasn’t slow. He soon organized the miscellaneous items from the suitcase one by one.

There were mostly clothes among the miscellaneous items — more than Lu Yunze had expected.

Holding a white shirt in his hand, an image of her wearing these clothes unconsciously surfaced in Lu Yunze’s mind. He couldn’t help but feel a sense of regret.

‘If we had met as friends, I surely would have been able to see more of your colorful sides.’

After such a lament, Lu Yunze quickened his pace.

Besides the suitcase, he should also help her organize the clothes in the Wardrobe. He hadn’t expected Jiang Sui’s wardrobe to be so messy; it was very unlike her style.

“Huh?”

Among the many piles of clothes, Lu Yunze saw a white strap and pulled it out without thinking.

Then —

*Slap!*

A pair of panties along with a bra hit him directly in the face.

Lu Yunze instinctively picked up these intimate garments and fell into a daze.

Even though Jiang Sui’s personality was quite open, her underwear was the pure and innocent type. Was this what they called a gap?

‘Did she think I’d panic seeing these?’

Lu Yunze was indeed startled, but he wasn’t too flustered. As long as he hurried and tidied them up, no strange desires would arise.

But at that moment, footsteps so light they were almost nonexistent reached Lu Yunze’s ears.

When he looked up, Xia Youqing, rubbing her eyes, appeared at the door.

“Sui’er, did you just call me? Sorry, I was a bit dazed from sleeping.”

“Ah…”

The moment Xia Youqing opened her eyes and met his gaze, she froze in place.

“Um… hello, Madam.”

“You… you, you, you — !”

Xia Youqing’s face changed drastically.

“Where did this Underwear Thief come from? Let go of my daughter’s clothes!”

“Listen to me, this is a misunderstanding!”
