Chapter 25 Morning Dwelling Nine Palaces, Area A, No. 17 (1/2)



Yu Mei, who was standing to the side in a daze, suddenly slapped her thigh.

"Hey, is that delicious takeout my daughter's been talking about the one you sell, young lady?"

"She also mentioned that the person selling boxed lunches was a pretty girl. Looking at it this way, isn't that you, young lady?!"

She then remembered the boxed lunch her daughter had been talking about every day for the past few days, but she hadn't been able to put it into her mind and hadn't connected it with Shi Yi in front of her.

"I think so?" Shi Yi said uncertainly.

"Oh dear, she's been so busy with work these past few days that she hasn't had time to go shopping, so she keeps asking me to go buy it for her."

“If you’re still selling there this afternoon, I’ll go and buy a few portions,” Yu Mei said.

Zhang Fengjuan chimed in, "I'll go with you; I'd like to buy a few to try too."

"Okay, ladies, I'll be there around 5:30 today. You can just go over there and line up then."

"Then I'll be going now."

After finishing her boxed lunch, Shi Yi covered it, placed it on the back seat, and prepared to leave.

She has to go somewhere else.

"Okay, young lady, drive carefully," the two men said to her.

"Okay, thank you."

——No. 17, Block A, Chenxi Jiuque, Jiangbei District.

This is it.

The tricycle was parked at the entrance.

Her gaudy little tricycle looked somewhat out of place in front of the magnificent entrance to the residential complex.

Two tall, handsome young men stood at the door, looking straight ahead without moving.

As soon as I got out of the car, I saw someone walking over from the security room.

"Hello, miss, setting up a stall is not allowed here."

“I don’t want to set up a stall, I want to go inside. I’m the owner of this place.”

The security guard clearly didn't believe him.

“My name is Shi Yi, and I’m the homeowner of number 17. You can check it.”

"Wait a moment." The security guard quickly returned, and after a while, he jogged back.

"I'm so sorry, we've checked and confirmed that you are indeed the owner of number 17. I'll take you inside now."

The security guard bowed respectfully and politely as he spoke and gave her directions.

"Do you need me to drive your car in?"

He noticed the tricycle behind him and asked a question.

"No need, I'll drive in myself. You lead the way."

It was her first time here, and she really didn't know where she was.

"Okay, please follow me."

The automatic barrier rose, and Shi Yi turned around, got into the car, and slowly drove the tricycle inside.

After driving for a while, turning left and right, we arrived at our destination.

"Miss Shi, this is number 17."

"If you need any help, you can call this number." He took out a business card from inside his suit jacket and handed it to Shi Yi.

The phone number for the security office is above.

"OK, thanks."

"Then I'll be going now. Have a pleasant stay, Miss Shi!"

The security guard bowed, then calmly turned and left.

"Okay, thank you," Shi Yi replied politely.

After the person left, Shi Yi took a closer look at the villa in front of her.

Shi Yi stood outside the gate and looked up to see the silver-gray automatic door. Next to it was an electronic screen that displayed "Unidentified Visitor". She walked over and scanned her face, and the door slid open automatically, creating a gust of wind.

The small square inside the gate was paved with gray tiles, and several potted green plants, each about a meter tall, with glossy leaves were placed along the edge. The courtyard wall was pure white and must have been about two and a half meters high.

The yard was bigger than she had expected, the lawn was neatly trimmed, and there was a square pond in the middle with clear water and black pebbles at the bottom. To the right was a gray outdoor sofa, next to which stood a parasol with a silver, sturdy-looking handle.
