Starting as the President of a Billionaire Group

Capítulo 854: Chapter 829: A Sudden Embrace

“I still have a delivery to make. I’ll get in touch later.” Ye Chen played along with the girl’s act.

The girl handed her phone to Ye Chen, and he reluctantly gave her his number.

“Darling, let’s talk later,” the girl said with a smile as she took back her phone.

The guy with glasses watched Ye Chen and his beloved girl flaunt their affection in front of him, gripping his fists tightly, his eyes almost spitting fire.

But what could he say? He was too tired to try hard anymore, and he was already with the girl’s mom.

He and the girl were just strangers now.

Ye Chen watched the elevator numbers climb, and finally reaching the tenth floor, he quickly dashed out with the package.

What a treacherous world we live in. Had to make a quick escape.

Walking out of the elevator, the guy with glasses looked at the girl and asked, “Little Xu, if you’re looking, you shouldn’t go for a delivery guy. How much could he possibly make in a month? He can’t even take care of himself, let alone you?”

Before the girl could respond, the guy with glasses continued, “Unless he wants you to support him and be a kept man. Such people are really shameless.”

The girl snorted coldly, “I think you’re the shameless one. My boyfriend’s not like you, always looking for something for nothing. At least he’s out there earning through hard work.”

Well, with that, she effectively killed the conversation.

The guy with glasses turned red, then white, too angry to speak.

Ye Chen slipped out of the elevator and came to the door with the number 1008, gently knocking.

There was no response. He had called ahead to confirm someone was home.

Inside, it was already a mess. A girl in a nightgown with braided pigtails was struggling to catch her cat.

The little kitty was mischievous and agile, leaping around the kitchen and causing chaos.

The girl in the nightgown patiently said, “Little Cheese, be good, come down.”

But the kitty acted as if it hadn’t heard a thing, continuing to jump around, ignoring the girl’s calls.

Seeing the kitty’s continued antics, the girl in the nightgown lost her temper, shouting sternly, “Little Cheese, being naughty? Just wait until I catch you, or I’ll give you a good spanking.”

She thought, after all, most beings bully the weak and fear the strong, including animals.

But to her surprise, the kitty not only didn’t stop but started leaping around even more vigorously.

Bottles of condiments in the kitchen were knocked over, spilling everywhere, even staining the girl’s nightgown.

The flustered girl in the nightgown flushed with anger, jumping and panting with frustration.

Sometimes, there’s just nothing you can do with a pet. No matter if you use gentleness or force, it’s indifferent to you.

Just like now, the girl stood there, at a loss as the kitty ignored her completely.

Suddenly, the phone in the living room rang, and the girl ran to answer it.

“I’m the delivery person from Divine Wind Delivery. Is anyone home? I’ve been knocking on the door for a while,” Ye Chen said helplessly.

He didn’t want to make this call, but after knocking for so long without a response, even the neighbors from across the hall started coming out.

It was late now, and the noise was indeed bothering others.

“Someone’s home, please wait a moment,” the girl in the nightgown quickly said.

After hanging up, she rushed to the mirror to tidy up her clothes and hair, then went to open the door.

“Wow, this delivery guy is way too handsome.”

The girl in the nightgown stood there, stunned, staring at the delivery guy in front of her.

“Here’s your package, could you please sign for it?” Ye Chen handed the parcel to the girl with a smile.

That was when the girl snapped out of it, apologizing sheepishly, “Sorry, I didn’t hear it earlier and made you wait outside for so long.”

“It’s no problem.” Ye Chen replied with a smile.

Originally, Ye Chen was supposed to head home, but Little Pang suddenly called him, saying a package was damaged, and due to the delivery competition that day, Little Pang received two bad reviews.

If another damaged package was delivered, it would surely lead to more bad reviews. Thinking of all possibilities, Ye Chen, being resourceful, was asked to help by Little Pang.

Feeling quite sorry for Little Pang, Ye Chen agreed to deliver the package.

But the fact remained that the bag was torn, and Ye Chen was pondering how to get away with it.

Suddenly, he had a lightbulb moment, an idea flashed across his mind.

He smiled warmly at the girl in the nightgown.

That smile entranced the girl even more.

“This delivery guy’s smile is as warm as sunshine, it feels so nice.”

What Ye Chen did next left the girl wide-eyed.

He approached the girl in the nightgown, hugged her tightly, and then softly kissed her forehead.

The sudden embrace and peck caught the girl off guard. She never imagined the handsome delivery guy in front of her would do such a thing.

The package in the girl’s hand fell to the ground, and the mischievous kitty from the kitchen came running over.

Seeing the box, it began to claw at it, finding it more entertaining than hopping around the kitchen.

The girl, still wrapped in the euphoria from moments before, didn’t notice the box was already damaged.

When she opened her eyes, the delivery guy had vanished, leaving only the kitty clawing at the box by her feet.

In fact, Ye Chen had cleverly sneaked away as soon as the girl closed her eyes.

If she discovered the package was damaged, she would surely have questioned him, but now, there was no one there for her to ask.

Yet, Ye Chen was wrong. Even if the girl found out the box was damaged, she wouldn’t blame him.

After Ye Chen left, she didn’t care about being in her nightgown and hurried downstairs to chase after him. Such a handsome delivery guy, she couldn’t let him slip away easily.

Once downstairs, she looked around but couldn’t catch a glimpse of Ye Chen.

Disappointed, she pouted and stomped her foot.

Ye Chen sighed with relief after leaving the neighborhood. That was close, very close. If the girl had caught up to him after his earlier actions, she would have definitely socked him one.

The girl stood outside for a long time before giving up and going back. She took the elevator up, entered her home, saw the small cat still scratching the box, but she wasn’t angry. Instead, a smile appeared on her face.

She left a Five-Star Review, then added a comment, “The delivery guy is absolutely charming.”

Ye Chen left the neighborhood, drove his Lykan back to Hua Mansion, where Lin Wanrou had already prepared a table of delicious dishes waiting for him.

As soon as he walked in, Lin Wanrou greeted him with a smile, “My love, you’re back. I’ve missed you so much.”

“Wanrou, you’ve lost weight,” Ye Chen said with concern.
