Picking Up a Big Brother as My Husband

Xu Moran, a young female police officer, lived an ordinary life until she accidentally picked up a man on the highway. From then on, the man clung to her like glue, and her meager salary had to cov...

Chapter 110 The Little Prodigal Son

The streetlights were very bright, casting long shadows on Xu Ye. Xu Moran struggled to control himself and looked away, no longer looking down.

As she walked towards home, she silently reminded herself that she must help Xu Ye regain his memory as soon as possible and help him find his home.

Putting herself in Xu Ye's shoes, if it were her family, they would be incredibly worried if such a handsome young man got lost.

She later learned that after Xu Ye disappeared, his stepmother and stepbrother almost set off firecrackers to celebrate, and they really disliked Xu Ye going back.

Xu Moran walked to the entrance and saw not only an unfamiliar van, but also a person standing on tiptoe peering into the doorway, who growled, "Who are you looking for?"

With the Lunar New Year just around the corner, it's peak season for burglaries, especially in older neighborhoods lacking security and surveillance equipment. People need to be extra careful.

Startled by Xu Moran's shout, the man who had been craning his neck to look around turned to Xu Moran and clarified, "I'm here to deliver something."

Xu Moran pointed to the electronic pager at the entrance, "You can press the door number on this, and someone will come to pick you up."

The delivery guy looked aggrieved. "I've pressed the button several times, but no one has answered."

Xu Moran stepped forward. "Let me press the button for you. What number do you need to deliver?"

"302".

Xu Moran paused, her hand already pressed 3, and turned to look at the delivery guy. "The 302 you mentioned is my house. I didn't buy anything."

The delivery guy shrugged. "I don't know, but the delivery slip says 302." Afraid that Xu Moran wouldn't believe him, he handed her the delivery slip. "If you don't believe me, look for yourself."

Xu Moran took it and looked at it; the delivery address was indeed her home.

If she were still living alone, it would be 100% certain that the manufacturer made a mistake. However, now that Xu Ye is living with her and spends money so much, there's no need to suspect that the wrong item was delivered.

The delivery slip didn't specify what it was, and Xu Moran didn't see any large items like a refrigerator or television, so he asked the deliveryman, "What are you delivering?"

The deliveryman told Xu Moran to wait a moment, then turned and ran towards the van a few steps away.

As the car door opened and closed, Xu Moran saw that the deliveryman had a box in his hand. It wasn't big, but the deliveryman held it carefully as if it were something valuable, and walked cautiously to Xu Moran. "Miss Xu, this is an imported home coffee machine."

"What?" Xu Moran thought he had misheard. "You mean there's a coffee machine in here?"

The deliveryman was about to nod, but when his chin touched the cardboard box, he immediately stopped nodding. From his careful manner, it was clear that he was afraid of damaging the contents of the box.

Xu Moran thought to himself, "It's just a coffee machine, why are we being so careful?"

The deliveryman, holding the coffee machine in both hands, nervously said to Xu Moran, "Could you please open the door so I can take the goods upstairs first?"

Xu Moran was now certain that Xu Ye had bought the coffee machine. She opened the hallway door and turned on the hallway lights to make it easier for the delivery guy to carefully enter.

.

Once the box containing the coffee machine was placed securely on the doormat, the deliveryman finally breathed a sigh of relief, took out the delivery slip and pen, and handed them to Xu Moran. "Ms. Xu, please sign for the package after confirming that the goods are intact."

After speaking, he skillfully opened the box, carefully took out the coffee machine, and presented it to Xu Moran for her inspection.

Xu Moran glanced at it and saw that there was indeed no damage visible to the naked eye. He then picked up a pen and signed the receipt.

When Xu Moran handed the signed slip back to the deliveryman, he caught a glimpse of the amount on the delivery slip out of the corner of his eye.

Finally, she understood why the delivery guy was being so careful; despite its small size, the coffee machine cost a five-figure sum.

A sudden realization dawned on her, and she understood why Xu Ye's eyes showed fear when he looked at her after she got out of the taxi.

Haha, a coffee machine that costs five figures. If she bought it, she probably wouldn't dare face the person who paid for it.

So he said he ate too much and needed to take a walk to digest. Well done, Xu Ye!

Xu Moran was so angry that she gasped for breath several times.

Who can surpass Xu Ye when it comes to being a spendthrift?

Among the people Xu Moran knew, there was absolutely none.

Xu Ye probably knew that Xu Moran would be very angry this time, so he went out to digest his food for a long time. Xu Moran waited for him until his eyelids were drooping, but he still hadn't come back, so he simply washed up and went to bed first.

Xu Moran didn't know how much time had passed when, in a daze, he heard a very soft sound of the door opening, and he was instantly wide awake.

Xu Ye didn't see Xu Moran in the living room, so instead of going back to her room, she went to the kitchen.

Xu Moran didn't close the bedroom door tightly, and could tell from the footsteps that Xu Ye had gone to the kitchen.

Is this spendthrift trying to figure out how to use a five-figure coffee machine overnight?

Xu Moran resisted the urge to get up and rush to the kitchen to question the spendthrift, asking why he was so competent at being a spendthrift.

It has become very difficult to feel sleepy again.

As Xu Moran was lost in thought, the door was pushed open. Because of her lack of security since childhood, ever since Xu Moran had the ability to support herself, she always left a light on before going to bed.

The small nightlight emitted a warm orange glow, a dim light that allowed Xu Moran to clearly see everything in the room.
