Takeshi Kaneshiro from Building 2: Be modest, be modest.
*
The conversation almost went off-topic after being interrupted by two immature teenagers, but it did remind everyone that water is hard to buy, especially since the water supply is about to be cut off, and it will probably be even harder to get it in the future. So everyone sent private messages to the shop owner to buy some.
Xia Ning was starting to suspect that the two people were shills hired by the boss, but given the current trend, 10 yuan a bottle of mineral water really wasn't considered price gouging.
To her surprise, Shu Qilan, who prided herself on justice, did not show herself. Could it be that she did not see it?
Little did they know, Shu Qilan not only saw it, but actually looked at it no less than three times, secretly enjoying herself.
Jian Yuan had just sent over 10 5L bottles of mineral water. When Shu Qilan opened the door and saw those bottles of water, she felt incredibly aggrieved.
What does that mean? Is it implying that she's a weakling?
Looking at the chat group, I saw that 300ml bottles were selling for 10 yuan each, so these 10 five-liter bottles of mineral water were worth at least 1600 yuan! And they were practically priceless!
It's clear that Jian Yuan is different from those spoiled rich kids who only know how to buy bags to woo women; he genuinely cares about her life and shows his love through his actions.
Shu Qilan felt a surge of sweetness in her heart, and looking at the mountain of mineral water in the living room, she no longer felt it was in the way.
She pouted and muttered, "Don't think I'll give in just because of this."
As Shu Qilan was muttering to herself, the doorbell rang again.
She looked through the peephole and saw that it was the same deliveryman from before.
Ugh, what did Jian Yuan buy this time? She's not the kind of materialistic woman who only clings to men.
As Shu Qilan opened the door, she thought to herself that she must send Jian Yuan a message later to tell him not to send any more.
She opened the door with a beaming smile and said to the deliveryman, "Thank you for your hard work. Please help me carry it to the living room."
The deliveryman paused for a moment, then said apologetically, "I haven't received your item yet. The water I just delivered was bottle 801. I made a mistake, I'm so sorry."
Shu Qilan's smile froze: "Not mine?"
The deliveryman apologized, "It was our mistake. You can give me your order number, and I'll arrange for someone to deliver it to you as soon as possible."
"I didn't buy it," Shu Qilan said anxiously. "Wasn't it a gift from someone else?"
"..."
The deliveryman was speechless. At first, he thought that 601 had also pre-ordered bottled water, which was why he accepted it so readily. But it turns out that wasn't the case at all!
The excuse that they thought it was a gift from someone else is just that—an excuse to take advantage of a mistake.
He'd seen plenty of people like that.
The deliveryman and the porters behind him exchanged a glance, extremely relieved that they had discovered the mistake in time; otherwise, who knows how much trouble they would have gotten if they had arrived a day later.
The deliveryman said with a forced smile, "I'm sorry to trouble you. I'll move these water bottles out first, and we'll deliver yours as soon as they arrive."
"Sigh, this..."
Shu Qilan watched as they deftly carried the water out, even more quickly than when it was brought in, as if someone was chasing her for a debt.
With the front door closed, Shu Qilan stood in the now much emptier living room, stomping her feet in anger.
It's all 801's fault; she embarrassed herself.
Shu Qilan remembered when she asked the Xia family to borrow a dog, the woman from 801 mocked her from the side.
Hmph! This woman is definitely doing this on purpose!
Sigh, when will she be able to escape the fate of being targeted by women?
