0119 Uninvited Guest
Jiang Jifan had just gotten home from get off work and, before washing his hands, unpacked the several packages delivered by the property management company one by one.
She's bought a lot of things lately and can't even figure out what she has in her hands now. It's like opening blind boxes, one after another.
Finally, there was a box with very discreet packaging. She gently cut it open with a knife and realized what was going on when she saw several small square boxes neatly stacked inside.
Wasn't this the condom that Xing Yeye persuaded her to buy a few days ago?
The brand had a promotion a while ago, and Xing Yeye insisted on dragging her along to place an order together.
Jiang Jifan had never used this brand of condoms before, but after receiving her various assurances, she selected a few boxes and planned to try them out later.
When Xing Yeye saw the few conventional lubricants she had chosen, she made a few complaints, saying they were too conservative, and then recommended a particularly good lubricant to her.
She said it was okay, and Xing Yeye asked why.
Jiang Jifan replied to her at the time: "Have you ever seen a fish in the sea that needs wings?"
Xing Yeye was stunned for a moment before she reacted, and immediately burst into laughter: "Damn, you're awesome, Jiang Jifan."
"Miss Jiang, there is a visitor outside the door."
Jiang Jifan turned around and saw the intelligent robot UU walking slowly to his side, its big, innocent eyes blinking as it looked at him.
"UU, you forgot to speak Chinese again." She reached out and stroked its smooth, round head, then casually put the delivery box aside.
The company founded by Tantai Qinghe mainly deals in AI products, and UU is the new generation of artificial intelligence robot that the company developed recently.
Jiang Jifan quite liked the little thing. It was hardworking, capable, and had a sweet tongue. Most importantly, it looked so adorable that even though it would occasionally make mistakes, it was hard to blame it.
UU nodded in agreement, resuming her clear and sweet Chinese voice: "Okay, sister."
Jiang Jifan was still wondering who the person it could call a "visitor" was, but when he came to the entrance and saw the face on the video doorbell, he subconsciously frowned.
Just as Qiao Xianzhi was about to try entering the door lock code, the door suddenly opened, and Jiang Jifan, wearing a black sleeveless fishtail bodycon dress, stood at the door.
She withdrew her hand somewhat awkwardly, then smiled at her casually: "Hello, Ms. Jiang."
Jiang Jifan looked at her expressionlessly, with an aloof demeanor, and said coldly, "Miss Qiao, is there something you need?"
Qiao Xianzhi's displeasure was obvious to the naked eye, but she remained indifferent, seemingly unaffected by her cold attitude.
"I'm looking for Tai Qing, isn't he home?"
After saying that, she glanced into the house.
Jiang Jifan frowned almost imperceptibly.
She never deliberately emphasized that Tantai Qing was "hers," but when she encountered someone like her who disturbed her without any sense of propriety, she would still feel extremely annoyed, and the hidden possessiveness in her heart would gradually surface.
Jiang Jifan was too lazy to play along with her and simply said, "He's busy and not home."
"I see." Qiao Xianzhi nodded with some disappointment. After a moment, she looked at her again and said, "Miss Jiang, if you don't mind, may I come in and sit down with you to talk? I feel it's necessary to explain some things about Tai Qing to you."
The words of refusal were on the tip of his tongue, about to be uttered, but Jiang Jifan pursed his lips and withdrew them in time. Looking at her gentle and beautiful face, he changed his mind at the last minute.
As if she were welcoming a guest, she greeted her and ushered her into the house, but she wasn't very enthusiastic. She didn't even bother to pour her water. After saying "sit down," she sat down on the sofa herself.
Qiao Xianzhi had prepared herself mentally before coming, but she still felt very uncomfortable when she saw that she couldn't even be bothered to be polite enough.
She managed to maintain her composure and sat down on another single sofa.
“Miss Jiang, my family and Tai Qing’s family are old friends, so Tai Qing and I have known each other since we were young. We spent the first 20 years of our lives together as close friends and lovers, so you may not be able to understand the feelings between us.”
Seeing that she did not interrupt, Qiao Xianzhi looked deeply apologetic: "I'm sorry, I did that thing that night because of my deepest emotions."
Although she didn't specify, Jiang Jifan immediately understood what she was referring to, and his expression became slightly unnatural.
"Back then, both families intended for us to get engaged during our university years. If it weren't for some unexpected events, Taiqing and I would probably be..." Qiao Xianzhi chuckled softly, stopping short of saying more.
Even now, she still has a strange confidence that the two of them will separate sooner or later, and that she will be the one standing by Tantai Qing's side in the end.
To be honest, Jiang Jifan really admired her shamelessness and persistence. It turns out that even a glamorous socialite in front of outsiders can be eager to become a third party in someone else's relationship.
She quietly observed the woman before her, then suddenly found it amusing. "Miss Qiao, do you think it's appropriate for you to say these things to me right now?"
Qiao Xianzhi pretended to be very flustered. "I'm sorry, Miss Jiang, I didn't expect you to care about what I said. I thought I was just stating some facts. If it made you feel uncomfortable, then I apologize."
She always did this, using her humble attitude to shut others down first, leaving Jiang Jifan with no suitable reason to vent his dissatisfaction. He didn't even get a chance to hit her, and she remained unmoved.
Just as I was pondering how to respond to her words, I saw her turn her head and focus her gaze on the newly opened delivery box on the corner of the table.
Then, turning back to look at himself, he feigned surprise and deliberately laughed, saying, "I remember he didn't like using this brand before."
