Chapter 894: Telling Lies with Open Eyes
Xiao Shiqiu is really efficient. I thought it would take at least two days to receive the goods. I am really narrow-minded.
How could I use my online shopping mindset to guess his "telephone shopping" method - the kind where you just call Xiao Yang and the goods will be delivered to your door automatically.
Azhi opened the largest package first, and the carton showed that it was a Herman Miller ergonomic chair.
"Azhi, thank you for your hard work. It took you the trouble to carry such a big box up here." I politely expressed my gratitude to him.
Ah Zhi wiped his sweat off his forehead and said with a simple smile, "Hey, this thing isn't heavy, it's just that the box is a bit big, so it's not easy to carry."
After unpacking the box, there was a pure white ergonomic chair inside. Unlike the chairs purchased online that were disassembled and packaged separately, this was a fully assembled chair. No wonder the box was so big.
"Wow~ This chair looks like it should be quite comfortable." Luo Yong walked forward and casually stretched out his hand to turn it. The chair rotated and slid very smoothly, and its appearance was also very online. Lao Xiao really understands my aesthetic taste.
Zhuque scanned it with his phone, searched Taobao, and immediately gasped, "Oh my god, this thing is so expensive?"
I always knew that Xiao would not buy cheap stuff, but I was still a little nervous, thinking that this guy would not bring me a limited edition worth hundreds of thousands of dollars, which would be a bit too exaggerated.
I couldn't help but lean over to take a look, and saw that the price after the 618 discount was 15,800. I immediately breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, it was only over 10,000.
Seeing that I was relieved, the other people looked at me strangely. Only then did I realize that the price of a computer chair was too high.
I gave a dry laugh and forced an explanation, "Haha, this brand of chair is more reputable."
After saying that, I wanted to bite off my tongue. Who would consider the value preservation when buying a chair?
Seeing that I was a little embarrassed, Suzaku reacted the fastest, laughing tactfully, "Yes, Mr. Xiao, our perspective is different. We buy things for consumption and consider price, but Mr. Xiao... considers value preservation."
I began to miss Xiao Yang's mouth.
To avoid further embarrassment, I started to open other boxes.
No girl can resist the joy of opening a courier box, especially when the item is not bought by herself. What is the difference between this and opening a blind box?
Well, the only difference is that it will be better than you expected.
The Cherry wireless pink mechanical keyboard, paired with the Razer V3 purple mouse, is full of girlishness. I can’t imagine how beautiful it would be if I did a beautiful manicure and took a photo on it.
"Holy crap!" Luo Yong's eyes widened. "Linear mechanical switches, wireless tri-mode, RGB backlight, Mr. Xiao is planning to let you participate in esports competitions, right?"
He glanced at me and shook his head, with an expression of "What a waste to give it to you" on his face.
I pretended not to notice and opened another box, only to see that it contained a coffee machine.
Zhuque's attention was focused on the coffee machine. "A fully automatic Delonghi coffee machine! Wow, it has a dual bean hopper, and can make lattes and cappuccinos..."
He was grinning like a fool while reading the instructions.
Suddenly, Suzaku turned to me and asked, "Xiao Xia, do you have a coffee machine at home?"
"Yes, what's wrong?" I didn't quite understand why he suddenly asked me this.
"Um... after this mission, you won't take this old coffee machine with you, right?"
I was a little amused and said, "If you like it, keep it."
Suzaku's eyes lit up, "Really?"
Luo Yong immediately looked at the chair after hearing this, "Then this computer chair..."
"All of them stay." I waved my hand generously. "I have chairs at home anyway."
After the villa renovation is completed in a while, Xiao Shiqiu will definitely have to buy new furniture.
Luo Yong came over immediately: "The keyboard and mouse..."
I have the illusion that I am still alive and well, but there are people waiting eagerly to inherit my estate.
"Luo Yong!" Wen Congwu couldn't stand it anymore, "Can you be a little more promising? There are plenty of keyboards, mice and other things in the office warehouse!
How dare you pick on a girl's keyboard? If I really gave it to you, would you have the nerve to use a pink keyboard? ~"
Luo Yong stroked my keyboard, his eyes shining as he said, "Captain Wen, this has nothing to do with the color. This is a top-notch peripheral used by professional esports players!
Not to mention pink, I can use it even if it's as ugly as shit."
I suddenly felt a tightness in my chest and could only pretend not to hear it and go to watch Azhi work.
Xiaoyan and Azhi left after helping to install and debug the equipment. I had already started using the new equipment under their envious gazes.
The coffee machine has been replaced with a new one, and the original capsule coffee is no longer usable. However, Xiao Shiqiu was very thoughtful and sent me coffee beans as well as my favorite pure milk and fresh cream. Except for the pain of getting up early, going to work is still very pleasant.
The coffee machine made pleasant sounds as the rich aroma of coffee filled the air.
Soon, Wen Congwu took a sip of coffee and sighed contentedly, "Xiao Xia, why don't you come work in our police force? I'll get you a civilian job."
"This is a good idea. I think Xiao Xia is quite professional. He has good physical and mental qualities. He graduated from a prestigious university. He is suitable, very suitable." Luo Yong immediately started lying with his eyes open.
Thank you so much! I'm here doing nothing every day, just looking at the screen and eating snacks, and you can still tell that I'm professional?
Despite all the complaints, I remained humble on the surface. "Actually, I've always admired the police profession. I originally thought it was difficult to get into Public Security University, so I applied to University A."
Looking at the way their lips twitched, I felt like I had killed the conversation again.
In the end, Suzaku came out to smooth things over, "Haha, Xiaoxia's reason is quite... quite niche~"
COLLIN has an hour and a half lunch break at noon, so I can also take a short break.
The chair Xiao Shiqiu bought for me allows me to half-recline in it without falling over.
I had just closed my eyes and was about to take a nap when someone knocked on the door again.
The person who came in was a policeman whom I had only seen at the first day of the meeting.
I saw sweat on his forehead and excitement on his face. "Captain Wen, I found a clue about Si Kouting."
