Chapter 146: Gifting a Camera
His expression froze, and then his eyes flashed green as he picked me up and threw me onto the large bay window. He pressed down on me, and I sank into the thick sponge pad.
"Since you can bark so well, why not bark a few more times?"
Men want to know your name at first, and then they want to know how you call yourself.
My voice was almost hoarse before he got up from me contentedly. Just as he was about to get up and wash up, the doorbell rang.
"It should be Old Wu who sent the camera."
As he said that, he casually put on a bathrobe and went to open the door. I heard the door open and it was a young girl's voice, soft and tender.
"Mr. Xiao, I've brought you the camera you requested. Please check if it has all the accessories. If there's anything missing, I'll go back and get it."
Is it Wu Wanqing? Why did she send it?
Xiao Shiqiu's voice was a little unhappy: "Why did you send it up? Where's your father?"
"The community doesn't allow cars from outside to come in. My dad parked his car at the gate. He was afraid of getting a ticket, so he asked me to take him in and he stayed in the car." Wu Wanqing explained timidly.
The reason is reasonable, but I still think she did it on purpose.
I quietly moved to the door and looked out through the crack, just in time to see Wu Wanqing looking in my direction. However, she could only see that there was someone inside, but couldn't see my appearance clearly.
"Okay, the things have been delivered. You can go back now. Thank you."
Xiao Shiqiu blocked her at the door and had no intention of letting her in. He asked her to leave in a flat tone.
"Mr. Xiao, can I go in and have a glass of water? I ate too much salt tonight and I'm a little thirsty."
Wu Wanqing's voice was soft and contained a hint of grievance.
Xiao Shiqiu hesitated for a moment and said, "You wait here."
He still had no intention of letting her into the house. He turned around and went into the house, took out a bottle of Evian from the refrigerator and handed it to her.
"I can't drink cold drinks these days... Can you pour me a cup of hot water?" she said softly, a little shyly.
Xiao Shiqiu was obviously a little impatient, but he still maintained his composure and finally let her into the house.
He poured her a cup of hot water from the water dispenser. Wu Wanqing sat on the sofa, holding the cup in both hands and drinking it in small sips, her eyes constantly looking around the room.
"My mom told me you haven't been back to Lanshan for a few days. So you bought a house here. But it's so small. Can you get used to it?"
"Sleeping is just a bed, what's there to be unhappy about?" He replied calmly.
Ha, what a pretentious guy! If he hadn't complained before about the small house, I would have thought he was a happy-go-lucky person.
"Is there anyone cleaning this house? My school is not far from here. How about I come to clean your room, do laundry and cook for you after school? My mother taught me all these, and I'm very good at them." Wu Wanqing looked at Xiao Shiqiu with eager eyes.
"No, I can do it myself. No need to trouble you." Xiao Shiqiu's tone was obviously distant, but Wu Wanqing still didn't give up.
"It's no trouble. You're so busy, how can you have time to do these trivial things? I'll..."
Before she could finish, Xiao Shiqiu interrupted her, "I'll say it again, no need. I only paid your parents' salary, not you, so you don't need to do anything for me. Someone will clean here." His voice became cold.
No matter how slowly Wu Wanqing drank the glass of water in her hand, she had finished it by now.
"Can I use the restroom?" she asked cautiously again.
"Okay, you can use that one." Xiao Shiqiu pointed to the guest bathroom.
After Wu Wanqing went in, she didn't come out for a long time. This time she probably couldn't find any excuse. She pretended to look at the study room unintentionally, bit her lip, and finally left unwillingly.
