Zhou Xiaoyue struck up a conversation with Ye Xuan on the ride back.
"I didn't expect someone as young as you to drive such an expensive car! What do you do for a living?"
Ye Xuan glanced at her nonchalantly and replied, "I drive for my boss."
"Huh? So, this car isn't yours?"
"No, it's my boss's."
Zhou Xiaoyue's interest instantly plummeted.
A mere chauffeur!
Her opinion of Ye Xuan dropped several notches, and her attitude became noticeably cooler. Though she kept up small talk, her forced smiles betrayed her true thoughts.
Ye Xuan chuckled softly.
Interesting.
Internally, Zhou Xiaoyue's disdain grew.
What a pathetic person! Pretending to be wealthy by driving his boss's car? Disgusting.
Who gave him the audacity to act rich? Was it Liang Jingru, or Lu Chichi?
The sports car roared into Lu Chichi's apartment complex. She had come downstairs to greet them.
"Xiaoyue!"
"Chichi!"
"It's been so long!"
The two friends reunited, their joy evident.
Zhou Xiaoyue, playing her innocent act, spoke in a sweet, girlish tone.
"Chichi, your boyfriend's quite handsome! What does he do?"
With her usual sincerity, Lu Chichi replied, "Oh, he delivers packages."
Zhou Xiaoyue's lips curled into a sneer.
Ha! I knew it. Just a delivery guy.
How could he possibly compare to my boyfriend—a high-earning, suave gentleman whose family is loaded?
Feigning concern, Zhou Xiaoyue put on a worried expression.
"What? He's a delivery guy? Chichi, what if his boss gets angry about him driving the company car?"
Lu Chichi looked puzzled.
"Boss's car? Which one?"
Her confusion was genuine, leaving Zhou Xiaoyue utterly exasperated.
Still pretending? Let's see how far you can keep up this act!
Pointing to the sports car, Zhou Xiaoyue said, "That red sports car right there."
"Oh, that's his," Lu Chichi replied innocently.
What? You're kidding, right?
A delivery driver owning a 90-million-yuan sports car?
You think I'm stupid?
Playing along, Zhou Xiaoyue gasped dramatically.
"Wow, is that true? A 90-million-yuan sports car!"
"Of course!" Lu Chichi said with her trademark naivety. "It's his. He doesn't even know his boss!"
"But he told me it was his boss's car," Zhou Xiaoyue retorted.
Lu Chichi burst into laughter.
"Don't listen to him. He loves to joke around!"
At that moment, Zhou Xiaoyue's face flushed with embarrassment. She finally realized that Ye Xuan had been messing with her the whole time.
How mortifying!
Reflecting on her earlier attitude, Zhou Xiaoyue wanted to dig a hole and hide in it.
Throughout the interaction, Ye Xuan remained seated on the couch, casually scrolling through his phone. Seeing Zhou Xiaoyue's embarrassment, he stood up.
"I'm off to deliver packages."
His mind was set on completing his remaining five special deliveries. Each one brought him closer to upgrading the system.
Hearing Ye Xuan's words, Zhou Xiaoyue was speechless again.
What? You're still delivering packages despite owning a sports car?
What kind of world is this? Has reality gone mad? Or am I losing my grip?
Back at the delivery station, Ye Xuan parked his car.
Xiao Meng, the iron-willed yet clueless colleague, came running up in a panic.
"Brother Ye! You've got to help me!"
Ye Xuan looked at him curiously.
"What's wrong?"
Xiao Meng's face was filled with dread.
"I accidentally ripped a package. It was a bag of dog food, and now it's spilled everywhere! The brand is only available online, so I can't even replace it in time. What should I do?
"If the customer complains, I'll lose my bonus this month. That would be the second time! I've been working so hard—this can't happen again!" Xiao Meng looked like he was on the verge of tears.
Ye Xuan inspected the damaged package and replied calmly, "Don't worry. I'll handle it."
Though Ye Xuan had his reasons.
This delivery might trigger a special event.
It was a golden opportunity to progress toward his system upgrade.
Xiao Meng was overjoyed.
"Thank you so much, Brother Ye! I owe you one! I'll treat you to dinner later!"
"Deal," Ye Xuan said with a grin.
He called the recipient.
A young woman answered, her voice melodious and pleasant.
"Hello?"
"Hi, your dog food has arrived. Can I deliver it now?"
"Yes, I'm home. Please bring it over," she replied.
"On my way," Ye Xuan confirmed.
Grabbing the torn bag of dog food, Ye Xuan hopped onto his delivery tricycle and set off.
