Seeing Gu Xinyan’s neck feeling sore, Lu Xiaoi stretched out her big hand, like a fan, and began to massage her, gently pinching her delicate and slender neck, not daring to use too much force, fearing that too much force would wrinkle that snow-white neck.
Her technique was indeed unique, and a comfortable smile appeared on Gu Xinyan’s face: "Thank you, Lu Xiaoi, that feels really comfortable."
Lu Xiaoi wore a triumphant and proud expression: "No need to thank , this is the ancestral Lu Family Fist technique. At ho, I’m always massaging my dad, my mom, and Ah Huang. My mom and dad both say I’m good at it."
Gu Xinyan curiously asked, "Who is Ah Huang?"
Before Lu Xiaoi could answer that Ah Huang was a dog, Xu Xiangbei quickly changed the topic: "Have you packed everything you need for the set tomorrow?"
"It’s all packed, in the suitcase."
Xu Xiangbei smiled with a grimace, genuinely afraid that if Lu Xiaoi used too much strength, she’d snap Gu Xinyan’s delicate neck.
Though Lu Xiaoi might give an odd first impression, she was actually a great living assistant for Gu Xinyan. Gu Xinyan smiled and said, "Then tomorrow, I’ll head to the set with Lu Xiaoi."
Lu Xiaoi patted her robust chest and vowed to Xu Xiangbei: "I promise to take good care of your wife."
Her accent had a strong dialect flavor, and Lu Xiaoi didn’t hear it clearly, her clear eyes filled with confusion: "Lu Xiaoi, what did you say?"
Xu Xiangbei quickly signaled to Lu Xiaoi with his eyes, reminding her of the special instruction not to disclose that Gu Xinyan was his future wife to anyone—it’s a secret.
Realizing her slip-up, she covered her mouth with a laugh: "I almost forgot, I said you’re Doctor Xu’s sister, just like my own little sister, I’ll definitely take good care of you."
Gu Xinyan smiled and nodded, "That’s no problem, Lu Xiaoi’s personality is as straightforward as her stature."
"I want to go downstairs to buy sothing."
"Do you want to accompany you?"
A blush flashed across Gu Xinyan’s snow-white face: "No need for anyone to co; just having Lu Xiaoi accompany is fine. I need to buy so personal things."
Without needing to be told, Xu Xiangbei could guess that Gu Xinyan wanted to buy things for girls, so it wasn’t convenient for him to accompany her. Fortunately, Lu Xiaoi would go with her.
"Haha, then I can take it easy."
Lu Xiaoi pushed Gu Xinyan’s wheelchair, grinning as she said, "I happen to need to buy so things too. Miss Gu, I’ll accompany you downstairs."
Not long after stepping out, they heard Gu Xinyan complaining, "The elevator is broken again. The elevator has been breaking down frequently, so there’s no way for to get downstairs. Brother Xu, you’ll have to carry down."
Xu Xiangbei frowned slightly. Living in a high-rise apartnt, once the elevator is broken it’s troubleso. It looks like he would have to carry Gu Xinyan downstairs, no chance to take it easy.
Lu Xiaoi stopped Xu Xiangbei: "Let carry her. Miss Gu’s weight probably doesn’t even reach 100 pounds. At ho, I can carry three bags of 100-pound rice."
Xu Xiangbei laughed. With Lu Xiaoi here, he had no need to carry her himself.
Gu Xinyan first got down from the wheelchair, Lu Xiaoi folded the wheelchair, steadily carried Gu Xinyan, and then picked up the folded wheelchair, easily heading downstairs via the ergency stairwell.
Gu Xinyan felt more relaxed being carried by Lu Xiaoi, unlike when Xu Xiangbei carried her; his hands would unintentionally touch her thighs and butt, making her uncomfortable.
Xu Xiangbei, while pleased, also felt a little regret: "This ti, no chance for any cheeky contact."
The next morning, Ouyang Jiahui drove over to pick up Gu Xinyan for the set. She bought breakfast as usual but found a sign in front of the elevator that read "Elevator out of service, under maintenance."
She angrily kicked the sign: "This damn apartnt elevator acts up again. I co back after so many days, and it catches . It’s infuriating."
She had no choice but to pant her way up the stairs to the apartnt above.
Opening the door, she saw Xu Xiangbei asleep on the sofa by the door, and she asked in confusion, "Brother Xu, why aren’t you sleeping inside?"
"Oh, it’s my dear niece here. The room has soone staying in it."
Lu Xiaoi ca out from inside, curiously looking at Ouyang Jiahui, stunned by her explosive polo hairstyle.
Xu Xiangbei introduced them: "This is Ouyang Jiahui and this is Lu Xiaoi."
When Ouyang Jiahui saw Lu Xiaoi, she was just as surprised as Lu Xiaoi was upon seeing her. This girl was indeed strong. She fancied she’d seen many tall beauties, but a girl this tall and strong was the first.
Ouyang Jiahui, having seen the world, quickly recovered from her shock and extended her hand with a smile: "Hello, I’m Ouyang Jiahui."
"Hello, I’m Lu Xiaoi."
Apart from being drawn to the trendy hairstyle, Lu Xiaoi also spotted the soup-filled pan-fried buns in Ouyang Jiahui’s hand, slling the appealing fragrance of the fried buns.
For her, it was more attention-grabbing than any hairstyle. She automatically fixated on it, disorientedly licking her thick lips, swallowing her almost-overflowing saliva.
Seeing Lu Xiaoi’s eager to eat expression, Ouyang Jiahui smiled and handed over the breakfast in her hand, her voice soft and lovely: "Are you hungry? Have so breakfast. I just bought the pan-fried buns; they’re still warm."
Whoosh, Xu Xiangbei, like a sneaky cat, snatched the breakfast out of Ouyang Jiahui’s hands.
Sitting back leisurely on the sofa, Xu Xiangbei, in a yin and yang manner, said: "Dear niece, thanks for the kindness, but there’s no need for Lu Xiaoi to eat this. I’ll take her to eat buns later. She eats at least fifteen buns per al; these few buns wouldn’t fill the gap in her teeth."
Hearing Xu Xiangbei talk about Lu Xiaoi’s appetite startled Ouyang Jiahui. She was worried there wouldn’t be enough to eat. She’d bought extra this morning—twenty buns in all. Even if she bought forty buns, it wouldn’t be enough for Lu Xiaoi given her appetite.
She shrugged helplessly, indicating she was powerless.
Even though Xu Xiangbei snatched the buns, leaving her craving them with drool, Lu Xiaoi didn’t get angry. Her face turned slightly red as she fiddled with the hem of her garnt, biting her lip: "It’s alright, these buns sll great, but they wouldn’t be enough for . I’ll go downstairs for buns later."
Ouyang Jiahui began to feel sympathy for Lu Xiaoi, extending her hand towards Xu Xiangbei: "Even if Lu Xiaoi can’t be filled, giving her a few to try can’t hurt, right? You can’t take all of them for yourself."
Xu Xiangbei, with a mischievous grin, threw back two soup-filled buns: "Don’t worry, I’ll save so for you and Gu Xinyan. But giving this girl here two to try is wasting them. She can’t taste any difference. My experience ca from treating her to two als yesterday—no need to be polite with her, it won’t help."
Ignoring Xu Xiangbei, Ouyang Jiahui gently placed the two pan-fried buns into Lu Xiaoi’s already outstretched hand.
