Chapter 43: Door-to-door delivery
Meng Chuyuan had a very bad experience on his first night staying at Lu's house.
She was an art student and was very sensitive to colors. When she asked Lu Qianling if she was sure she would let her move in, she had actually thought about making do with it.
Meng Chuyuan really didn't like the color tone of the bedroom. The first thing she felt when she came in was a very depressing feeling. Because of this problem, she couldn't sleep all night.
She couldn't fall asleep until three in the morning. She kept tossing and turning and felt increasingly restless. She turned on the light, gave up on sleeping, and started playing with her phone.
The next day, a delivery truck stopped directly at the Lu residence.
Lu Qianling had just returned from school and saw a large truck parked in her yard. People in work clothes were unloading the truck and carefully carrying clothes and packages down.
Lu Qianling pointed at the truck in front of her and asked the housekeeper beside her: "Uncle Chen, what's going on?"
Housekeeper: "They are here to deliver a package to the eldest young lady."
Lu Qianling usually shops online, but she has never seen such a large scale of delivery, where a courier can even drive the car directly to her home.
Half an hour later, Lu Qianling came downstairs and found that the delivery man had not left yet.
She poured a sip of water, put down the cup, and walked out curiously, saying to the delivery boy who was still busy, "Aren't you finished yet?"
The delivery guy put the item down, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said, "No."
Lu Qianling thought there were too many packages on the truck and they were having trouble finding them, so they moved so many out. "Are your deliveries so exaggerated these days? Driving a truck door to door?"
"We're not exaggerating. Miss Meng has so many things, and the store requires them to be delivered to her door." The delivery guy pointed to the remaining large boxes in the car and said, "This whole car is all Miss Meng's."
"Are they all hers?"
"Yes."
Lu Qianling widened her eyes in shock, unable to believe it, and walked forward to check the information on the package. At a glance, she saw Meng Chuyuan's name all over it.
At the same time, Lu Qingye, who was far away abroad, had just finished his work. He leaned on the desk and pressed his aching temples.
Suddenly, the moment he opened his eyes, his cell phone rang.
Lu Qingye picked up the phone and took a look. He found that it was Lu Qianling calling. He couldn't help but frown. Although he knew that Lu Qianling was usually very attached to him, she usually wouldn't call him easily when he was working.
When Lu Qianling called him a few days ago, he happened to be in a meeting. After the meeting, he turned around and went back to work, and forgot to call her back. When he remembered it again, it was already the next day. Lu Qingye thought it was probably not an important matter, so he did not call back.
He happened to be free at the moment and answered the call.
Lu Qianling had called Lu Qingye with a try-it attitude, but unexpectedly, the other party picked up the phone. She was so excited that she didn't know what to say for a moment: "Brother..."
Lu Qingye raised his eyebrows and asked, "What's the matter?"
His voice was like a bucket of cold water, extinguishing Lu Qianling's enthusiasm.
Being treated indifferently, Lu Qianling looked at the pile of express deliveries in front of her, and she felt wronged. "Brother, your wife, that money-spending woman, bought so many things. The whole truckload of clothes and jewelry is hers. There's no room at home to put them all."
"Did you go to her place?"
Lu Qianling touched the tip of her nose, feeling inexplicably guilty: "No, but she lives with us now."
She thought that if she told Lu Qingye about this, he would be as angry as she was, but who knew that he would just say "oh" lightly.
Lu Qianling felt his voice was too cold, as if he hadn't grasped the point she had just made, so she repeated it again: "Your wife bought a whole cart of stuff..."
Before she could finish, Lu Qingye interrupted her: "Well, I understand. Don't be disrespectful in the future. She is your sister-in-law."
Lu Qianling: "..."
Listening to the silence on the other end, Lu Qingye slowly said: "Is there anything else?"
Lu Qianling wanted to say something, but after hearing what he said, she could only purse her lips and swallow back everything she wanted to say: "No...no more."
She felt that Lu Qingye was not in a good mood, perhaps he had encountered some troubles at work. Feeling that the atmosphere was not right, Lu Qianling did not dare to bother him again.
After thinking about it, she realized that this was most likely a prelude to hanging up the phone, so Lu Qianling bravely asked, "Brother, when will you be back?"
Lu Qingye didn't give an exact time, and the official replied, "I'll go back after I'm done here."
"All right."
After hanging up the phone, Lu Qingye put the phone back on the table, leaned back in his chair, stared at the ceiling with empty eyes, and Meng Chuyuan's face suddenly flashed through his mind.
Lu Qianling just said that she bought a cart of things...
He hasn't contacted Meng Chuyuan in the past half month, and he doesn't know whether she has enough money.
Thinking of this, Lu Qingye suddenly stood up, picked up his phone again, and transferred 20 million to Meng Chuyuan's card.
Meng Chuyuan was getting her hair done outside at the moment, humming a little tune comfortably and watching short videos to pass the time. Suddenly, at this moment, she received a remittance information from the bank.
At first she thought it was a spam message. Just as she was about to swipe away, she noticed the word "Bank" and the number with several zeros after it, which immediately attracted her attention.
Meng Chuyuan immediately switched to the text message, read it in its entirety, and counted the numbers: "Ones, tens, hundreds... tens of millions."
A full 20 million!
Although Lu Qingye gave her a card when they got their marriage certificate, she didn't know how much money was in it. Lu Qingye just told her to use it freely, so she naturally didn't hesitate and spent it when she needed to.
I just didn’t expect that the money in the card hadn’t been used up yet, and there was an extra 20 million inexplicably!
Just as she was puzzled, another message popped up on her phone. It was a WeChat message from Lu Qingye: [Did you receive the money?]
She was so scared that her hands shook and she almost dropped her phone.
“…” How rich is her cheap husband?
I clearly gave her the card, but he still wanted to transfer money to her.
Meng Chuyuan: [Received…]
After the message was sent, there was no reply from the other side. Meng Chuyuan thought about it and decided that after receiving 20 million yuan for no reason, she should at least give them some response, otherwise she would feel uneasy.
Meng Chuyuan looked through the emoticons for a long time, and finally sent him a picture thanking the Lord for his grace, but Lu Qingye just replied with a "hmm".
"Hiss... so cool."
But she likes this way of spending money directly.
After receiving the 20 million from Lu Qingye, Meng Chuyuan was in a good mood the whole day. After getting her hair done, she went for a massage and only went back home when she was tired from playing outside.
After returning to Lu's residence, Meng Chuyuan looked at the things she bought last night piled outside the door. She raised her eyebrows, with a hint of suspicion in her eyes.
