"I need a female delivery person! I'll give you the milk tea I ordered if you can make a trip to the Encounter Milk Tea Shop. Their bathroom has run out of toilet paper, and I've been squatting for ten minutes. Please bring so paper! It's urgent!"
What the heck? What kind of request is this?
Xia Liang was stunned. He was being asked, a man, to deliver toilet paper to a girl in the won's restroom.
Is that even possible? Impossible.
Without giving it another thought, Xia Liang made the call. It connected quickly.
"Hello, is this Miss Zhang? I accepted your order without looking at the details. Could you please cancel it on your end?"
On the other end of the line, a girl with a flushed face answered the phone inside the won's restroom of the Encounter Coffee Shop.
Could there possibly be anything more embarrassing than being stuck in a bathroom without toilet paper? Yes. It was having soone find out, especially when that soone was a man. The girl was on the verge of freaking out and wanted to hang up imdiately. But as her legs began to ache from squatting, she could only whisper into the phone like a mosquito.
"Um... could you please bring it in for ?"
This? Is there even a choice here?
Xia Liang couldn't imagine anyone actually going through with it—delivering toilet paper to a woman he'd never t in the ladies' room. If he helped and got branded a pervert, he'd have no way to defend himself.
"Hello? Can you do it?"
The voice on the phone snapped Xia Liang out of his thoughts.
"Oh, no, I can't do that," Xia Liang refused flatly.
"Why not?" Zhang Ying asked, starting to get anxious. If this order was canceled, who knew how long it would be until the next one was picked up.
"No reason. It's just that I'm a man."
With that, Xia Liang hung up. In the restroom, Zhang Ying was dumbfounded. Although she was grinding her teeth in frustration, she had no intention of calling back. She'd rather die than stoop to begging a man to bring her toilet paper.
Still, Xia Liang drove over to the Encounter Coffee Shop. While he wasn't going to make the delivery himself, he figured he could at least find an employee to help. After all, saving a life is more ritorious than building a seven-story pagoda.
This... counts as saving a life, right?
He told a staff mber at the coffee shop that soone was stuck in their restroom. Then, grabbing the takeout that Zhang Ying had ordered for him, he left.
He took pleasure in helping others while remaining anonymous. I really am a kind-hearted person.
Sipping the milk tea, Xia Liang got back into his car and opened the delivery app.
[Ding—You have a new delivery order. Please check for details.]
He opened it. This ti, there were no special instructions. Without a second thought, Xia Liang drove to the pickup location: a ti-honored hotpot restaurant.
After parking, he ignored the surprised stares from the people around him and headed straight to the second floor. The restaurant had already prepared the soup base and side dishes while he was on his way. Xia Liang hastily grabbed the large order and left, leaving a crowd of dumbfounded onlookers in his wake.
The delivery address was in the Longquan Residential Area. Although not as upscale as Xia Liang's own Youlan Community, it was still a neighborhood for the wealthy. Security at such places was usually strict, requiring delivery drivers to register their ID numbers and leave their cards at the gate. But when the guards saw the car Xia Liang was driving, they didn't even try to stop him, opening the gate imdiately. Xia Liang was happy to skip the hassle and drove straight in.
"Villa 3. This is it."
Xia Liang parked his car by the entrance, walked up to the front door of Villa 3, and rang the doorbell.
"Coming!" a voice called from inside.
The door opened, and a woman with wavy, red-dyed hair stepped out. The next second, her profile appeared before Xia Liang.
[Na: Sun Xiang
Age: 31
Appearance: 85 (Makeup 5)
Occupation: Chairman of Fengming Housekeeping
Inco: Five Yuan annually
Harmonious Value: 25 (Had one husband 10, long-term self-pleasuring 15)]
Although Sun Xiang was in her thirties, her skin was so well-maintained that she looked like she was in her twenties. As Xia Liang was sizing her up, she was doing the sa to him. His features were as handso as if carved from stone, his deanor cool and devilish, with a rakish smile playing on his lips. In an instant, Sun Xiang was smitten.
"Miss Sun, your deliv— Hey, hey!"
Caught off guard, Xia Liang was pulled into the villa.
BANG!
Before he could even react, Sun Xiang had slamd the door shut, her eyes gleaming as she stared at him.
Is this a honey trap? Is she going to harvest my kidneys?
Regaining his composure, Xia Liang showed no fear. On the contrary, he seed almost eager for what might co next.
"What are you doing?"
Hearing his question, Sun Xiang shot him a flirtatious glance. "Handso, what do you think of ?"
But Xia Liang felt nothing. He calmly shook his head. "Not much."
Seeing that her charms had no effect on him, Sun Xiang's expression turned serious. She grabbed a wallet from the shoe cabinet beside her.
"How about I give you one Yuan to stay with for a year?" she said, pulling a bank card from her wallet and looking at him triumphantly.
[Ding—Congratulations, Host, for activating a mission.
The Temptation of a Delivery Man.
Mission Description: As a delivery man, you must resist temptation! You cannot abandon your profession to beco a gigolo just for money.

Wang Defa! Is this karma? It's true what they say: what goes around, cos around. I just started paying for soone else, and now soone wants to pay for .
Seeing Xia Liang's dazed expression, Sun Xiang assud he was shocked by the amount of money.
She smiled sweetly. "Tempted, aren't you? This is one Yuan. Even if you work as a delivery man without eating or drinking, it would take you years to earn this much. Now, you just have to be with for a year. How about it?"
As she spoke, she held the card between two fingers and used it to lift Xia Liang's chin.
What the hell!
Snapping back to his senses, Xia Liang's face darkened, and he took a step back. "I'm not doing it!"
As if expecting his refusal, Sun Xiang put the card down and upped her offer. "One Yuan and two cents!"
After speaking, she lifted her well-maintained face, a flicker of triumph in her eyes. In her world, there was nothing money couldn't buy—including n.
"No," Xia Liang said, shaking his head again.
What the hell is wrong with this woman? This Master has over a hundred thousand in savings. You think I care about your one Yuan?
"Then... what if I add this?"
Sun Xiang took out the key to a rcedes-Benz and gently pressed it into Xia Liang's hand, giving his fingers a flirtatious touch. A huge sum of money, a luxury car, and a charming woman like ... A re delivery boy like him has no reason to refuse now, does he?
At this point, Xia Liang's brow was deeply furrowed. "Stop kidding around, Auntie. I'm the one who keeps others, not the other way around. See ya!"
With that, he tossed the car key back to Sun Xiang and turned to leave.
"Auntie!"
The term made Sun Xiang grit her teeth in irritation, so much so that she barely heard the rest of what he said.
