Chapter 758 Fu Nian'an is keeping a mistress?!
"Is it okay?" Le Yan hesitated. "What if he misunderstands and thinks I'm trying to flirt with him?"
"No way, you're so pretty, he'd be the one hitting on you!"
"He's incredibly handsome! Even more handsome than the top actor in the Qixing Film Festival. Even the currently trending ancient costume male god, Wen Songyi, might not be as handsome as him!"
"Really?" Lin Xiangyu looked incredulous. "Wen Songyi is my idol. I haven't found anyone more handsome than him in the entertainment industry!"
"Mr. Kindness isn't in the entertainment industry. He's really handsome, the kind of handsome whose temperament and looks are impeccable. What's that saying again?"
"Sexual tension?"
"Ah, right! Sexual tension!" Le Yan bit her chopsticks. "Such a perfect man, and such a kind-hearted person. I'm such an unlucky guy with bad luck, and yet I get help from such a handsome and rich tycoon. Waaah, thinking about it makes me so touched. Xiang Yu, I'm feeling better too!"
Lin Xiangyu: "..." Sister, you're too easily satisfied!
Le Yan glanced at the steamed buns Lin Xiangyu was carrying: "But then again, for a big shot like him, a poor guy like me can't afford to give him anything expensive right now, and he definitely wouldn't be interested in anything ordinary. So... should I bring him some steamed buns?"
"That seems like a good idea!" Lin Xiangyu said. "My xiaolongbao are all handmade with no additives. Wait a minute, I'll find a takeout box to pack them up!"
Le Yan was just saying it casually, but Lin Xiangyu not only took it seriously, but also packed it up on the spot with great efficiency.
Upon seeing the packaged three-delicacy xiaolongbao, Leyan began to have second thoughts.
It wasn't that she felt Xiangyu's homemade xiaolongbao was unpresentable; it was just that when she thought about her behavior last night... she really couldn't face the big boss anymore!
"Xiangyu, he probably won't be here at this time either, so maybe we should just forget about it!"
Lin Xiangyu shoved the takeout box into Le Yan's arms and pushed her toward the door: "It's the weekend today, even the big boss needs to rest, so just give it a try!"
"Hey, wait...aren't you being a little too proactive?"
"I think it's fate that we've met since we're neighbors. And he's a big shot. If you keep in touch, maybe he'll help you out of our neighborly relationship if you run into something like this again!"
Le Yan: "...That's unlikely!"
"Whether it's possible or not, let's just deliver it!" Lin Xiangyu opened the door and pushed Le Yan out: "Go for it! Our goal is to leave a good impression on our big neighbor!"
Le Yan: "..." It seems that after her actions last night, it's unlikely that she'll leave a good impression.
"Meow~!" The big orange cat came out and waddled toward the elevator with its chubby body.
When they reached the elevator, it turned around and meowed at Le Yan.
"Look, even Le Xiaomiao knows these basic social etiquette rules!" Lin Xiangyu nudged Le Yan again. "Don't be shy. Le Xiaomiao is with you, so you two won't feel awkward. Keep it up!"
Le Yan: "..."
In the end, the two of them, one human and one cat, made it to the 28th floor.
Standing at the door of Fu Nian'an's house, Le Yan held a steamed bun in her hand, her fingers gripping the lid of the takeout box, and looked down at the big orange tree at her feet.
The orange tabby looked up at her and meowed.
"Hey, don't rush me. It's not like you're the one who's going to die. You need to give the pretty girl some time to process her feelings!"
The big orange cat's eyes narrowed into slits. "Meow! Meow! Meow~~~!"
"Le Xiaomiao! Stop yelling, or you'll hurt someone..."
With a 'click', the front door opened from the inside.
Inside the door, Fu Nian'an was dressed in light gray loungewear, her short hair falling naturally. Compared to her suit and tie last night, Fu Nian'an seemed much more approachable now.
Upon seeing Le Yan, Fu Nian'an hesitated for a moment before asking, "Is something the matter?"
Le Yan: "..."
"Meow~"
Big Orange gave a 'hello' and its chubby body squeezed right through the open front door—
They were moving so fast that Le Yan didn't even have time to stop them!
"Le Xiaomiao!" Le Yan shouted anxiously, "What are you doing! This is someone else's house, come out here!"
"Meow meow!" The big orange cat was completely disobedient and started running around the house, which was the same size as our own but much more spacious and empty—
Le Yan's vision blurred, and she looked at Fu Nian'an: "Sorry, my cat isn't usually like this. I don't know what's wrong with her today."
Fu Nian'an reacted much calmer than Le Yan, simply asking, "Is there something you need from me?"
"Oh, it's like this, I came to express my gratitude and apology." Le Yan pursed her lips, mustered her courage and continued, "Thank you for helping me last night, and afterwards I made a fool of myself because of the alcohol. You were clearly trying to help me out of kindness, but I was petty and thought you were wrong. The more I thought about it after I got back, the more guilty I felt. These are the steamed buns my roommate made this morning. The ingredients are all fresh, and we often eat them ourselves. They're healthy and additive-free! If you don't mind... try some?"
Fu Nian'an glanced down at the takeout box that Le Yan handed to her.
The takeout box is transparent, so you can see the xiaolongbao (soup dumplings) inside.
Each one is beautifully shaped and looks quite appetizing.
Since it was a girl who made it by hand, he couldn't refuse.
"Thank you." Fu Nian'an reached out and took it. "Then I'll accept it."
Le Yan was flattered that he would accept it so readily!
It seems that the saying about "getting along well with your old neighbor" is likely to come true!
Fu Nian'an glanced around the room, then turned to Le Yan and said, "It seems your cat has run into my bedroom."
"Huh?" Le Yan was stunned. "Then, what do we do?"
Fu Nian'an sighed and stepped aside slightly, saying, "I don't touch pets. You can go in and take it out yourself."
"I'm so sorry!" Le Yan said with a wry smile, "I'm always causing you trouble. I'll go in and catch it right now!"
Fu Nian'an reminded him: "Go straight to the first room."
"OK!"
Le Yan entered the house, took off her shoes, and walked in barefoot.
Fu Nian'an's gaze swept over her fair and delicate feet, and she ultimately swallowed back the words, "No need to take off your shoes."
He watched as Le Yan entered his master bedroom, and the next second, he heard the sound of a girl and her cat arguing.
"Le Xiaomiao, you're dead meat! I'll empty my pockets today to get you a free egg combo meal!"
"Meow!!!"
"You're still running! Come here right now! If you don't come here, I'll twist your head off, you believe me?!"
Fu Nian'an: "..."
She has a gentle and sweet voice, but when she argues, it becomes powerful and forceful.
This contrast once again made Fu Nian'an's lips curl into a slight smile.
He turned and went into the kitchen, putting the steamed buns in the refrigerator.
Just as I came out of the kitchen, the doorbell rang.
Fu Nian'an paused, wondering what kind of day it was and why so many people were calling him.
The man turned and walked to the door, then opened it—
Outside the door was Chen Qingshu.
Fu Nian'an was taken aback. "Mom, what brings you here?"
Seeing his reaction, Shen Qingshu deliberately said, "I, as your mother, haven't been here since you moved out, and you never invite me to your new home. I just want to do a surprise inspection to see if you're keeping a mistress behind our backs!"
Fu Nian'an: "..."
He was about to speak when a girl's clear voice came from behind him: "I caught it!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Shen Qingshu's eyes suddenly lit up. "Wait, I think I just heard a woman's voice? You really have someone hiding in this house?"
Fu Nian'an: "..."
