Chapitre 32: THIS CINDERELLA IS FIERCE! (1)

[Yang Menghuo POV]

Yang Menghuo watched as his Ying Jie's back was getting further and further from his sight. He stood silently, not knowing what he did wrong. Obviously, they had a great time together on this simple grocery date.

Even Menghuo didn't realize that they had spent hours in this supermarket because it was indeed fun to talk with Ying Jie. Until that, Witch Daiyu called him and ruined his mood.

'I feel like Ying Jie misunderstand something here…' Menghuo thought. He wasn't sure what was inside Ying Jie's mind. It would be a lot easier if he knew. At least it wouldn't create some misunderstanding between them. Because Ying Jie didn't seem to be comfortable when their eyes met.

Yang Menghuo was about to leave the supermarket and texted Ying Jie again to know about their next date until he noticed something on the floor not far from him.

Like Prince Charming, who found Cinderella's glass slipper, Menghuo frowned and walked to check the dropped object, and he found a key with a tag on it.

Shi Ying, Xiuzhu Apartment, Room 11.12.

"I see, so that's where Ying Jie lives…" Menghuo was about to text Ying Jie, telling her that she dropped her key. But he stopped before he pressed the send button.

'Wait a minute, isn't this the perfect time to surprise Ying Jie? I don't know what my fault is, but as long as I surprised her with something, I believe that Ying Jie will forgive me!' Menghuo thought.

He started thinking about a good gift for Ying Jie while he called his driver.

Shi Ying called a taxi because she had a lot of grocery bags with her. She checked her phone to see whether Meng Bao would chat with her, maybe asking what happened? Or asking for the next date?

But when she saw no chat at all, she was disappointed. It was just her wishful thought, thinking that Meng Bao would call her again at least.

'Well, that it just proves that Meng Bao has a girlfriend…' Shi Ying assumed. She took a deep breath and then send the gift worth 500 Yuan to Meng Bao. She treated this as a parting for her wishful thinking of finally having a boyfriend that fit her.

'At least, with this, I know that Rent A Boyfriend is just a professional service, unfit for a woman in her late twenties, thinking I would get a real date. I should treat it professionally and get it over with after Meng Bao met my parents.'

Shi Ying returned to her apartment. Her hands were full of heavy grocery bags. She walked to room 11.12 and searched for her key in her hoodie pocket. But she couldn't find it.

"Wait… where did I put my key?" Shi Ying searched on her hoodie pocket, jeans pocket, and even in her grocery bag, but found nothing. She gulped when she finally realized that she might have lost her key somewhere.

'This is weekend, so the security guard is off duty. I can't get a spare key from him…'

'Damn, today is really my bad day, huh?' Shi Ying thought as she kept searching around.

'Did I drop it somewhere? In the supermarket? Taxi?' Shi Ying wondered.

She continued searching to no avail until she found out that her door was unlocked and opened a little. She was relieved. There was no suspicion in her heart because Shi Qiang had a spare key and often went to her apartment to plunder her fridge.

'That glutton finally has some use,' Shi Ying thought. She carried her grocery bags worth almost ten kilos in her left hand and then pushed the door open with her other right hand.

"Qiang, why do you leave the door open—"

"YING JIE, WELCOME HOME!" A man suddenly jumped on him with a bright smile and a flower bouquet in his hand.

"WHAAAA!"

BAM!

Shi Ying used all her strength to fling her ten kilos grocery bag towards the trespasser, and it hit him right in the head. The trespasser was thrown to the wall, and the other side of his head also hit the wall. The man lost consciousness soon after.

Shi Ying blinked few times. The adrenaline rush made her act according to her instinct. And when she saw the trespasser with a flower bouquet in his hand, she yelled, "OH NO, MENG BAO! I'M SORRY!"

***

Yang Menghuo felt his head had been hit with a hammer from both sides. After regaining his consciousness, he thought that he was resting on a very comfortable, warm pillow. He felt dizzy after getting attacked, so he decided to rest a bit more and refused to open his eyes.

He nestled deeper on the comfortable pillow and felt something even more comfortable, 'Hm… is this an L shaped pillow? Why does this part feel warmer and more comfortable, so jiggly…' he patted the pillow. He nestled deeper in it, 'Hm… so comfortable…'

"THAT'S MY DAMN BOOBS, YOU PERVERT!" Shi Ying pushed Meng Bao from her lap. Menghuo fell from the cough, and his head hit the floor again, "Ouch!"

Yang Menghuo finally opened his eyes, and the first thing he saw was Ying Jie with face red as a tomato, looking at him angrily with a bag of ice in her hand, "What are you doing in my home? How could you get my key?!"

'… Wow, this Cinderella is fierce as hell…' Menghuo thought.
