Chapter 68

"Young man, do you know this young lady? And do you know what my relationship with her is? You just barged in and interfered like this!" Shen Ziliang was taken aback by the sudden appearance of this person. When he realized that the one grabbing his arm was just a young man pushing a bicycle, he couldn't help but laugh in anger.

"Of course I know who this young lady is. Not only do I know who she is, but I also know who you are." Xia Yunjie's lips curled into a disdainful smile.

"Oh, you know who I am?" Shen Ziliang was greatly surprised by this.

Although he, Shen Ziliang, was indeed a notable figure in Jiangzhou City, he wasn't so well-known that everyone, young and old, would recognize him.

Shen Liti was also greatly surprised. In fact, she didn't know who Shen Ziliang was; she only knew that he seemed to be a wealthy young man. After they met on a flight from Beijing to Jiangzhou a while ago, he had been纠缠着她。

"Of course I know. Aren't you just a toad who thinks he can eat swan meat because he has a bit of money?" Xia Yunjie said mockingly.

"Ha!" Shen Liti didn't expect Xia Yunjie to give such an answer and couldn't help but laugh. Shen Ziliang, on the other hand, turned pale and glared at Xia Yunjie, saying, "Young man, are you tired of living?"

With that, he kicked Xia Yunjie in the stomach.

Shen Liti's smile froze on her face, and her eyes showed panic.

However, just as Shen Ziliang raised his foot, Xia Yunjie smiled faintly and said, "I don't know if I'm tired of living, but if you don't let go, I can't guarantee that your hand won't break."

As Xia Yunjie spoke, Shen Ziliang's arm felt as if it were clamped in a cold iron vise, causing cold sweat to roll down his forehead like soybeans. He couldn't even think about putting his foot down; his hand had already loosened, and he bent over involuntarily.

"Let go! Let go quickly! My hand is about to break!" Shen Ziliang shouted, his face ashen.

Xia Yunjie didn't intend to hurt Shen Ziliang. Hearing this, he let go and looked at Shen Ziliang.

Shen Ziliang was a practical person. Knowing he couldn't gain any advantage at this moment, he glared at Xia Yunjie and then got into his car and drove away.

"Hey, Mr. Shaman..." Once Shen Ziliang's car was gone, only Xia Yunjie and Shen Liti were left at the door. Shen Liti felt a bit embarrassed.

No matter what had happened yesterday, Xia Yunjie had helped her a great deal today.

"My name is Xia Yunjie, not Mr. Shaman." Xia Yunjie glared at Shen Liti and then rode his bicycle away.

After all, he had helped her today, and she called him "Mr. Shaman" right away. Even if she didn't know his name, she could at least call him "Master" like Du Haiqiong.

Seeing Xia Yunjie ride away without even acknowledging her, Shen Liti stomped her feet in anger: "Hmph, just because you helped me drive away a pervert, what's so great about that! Besides, you didn't even tell me your name before!"

After feeling depressed for a while, Shen Liti continued dragging her suitcase home.

When she reached the ground floor, she happened to encounter the two lecherous men who lived opposite her. Her heart sank, and she quickly lowered her head, pretending not to see them, sighing inwardly about her bad luck.

But to her surprise, the two lecherous men, who usually approached her shamelessly, saw her and ran home like rats seeing a cat, without a word. Shen Liti was so astonished that her eyes widened and her mouth dropped open, unable to recover for a long time.

After a while, Shen Liti remembered what Du Haiqiong had said the night before and couldn't help but giggle, covering her mouth.

She had lived here for more than half a year, and this was the first time she had seen the two lecherous men look so miserable. She felt both happy and relieved!

Feeling much better, she found it easier to carry her suitcase.

When she reached the fifth-floor landing, she habitually glanced at the opposite room. Usually, if there was someone in the opposite room, the door would always be wide open, and the two lecherous men would be showing off like they were in heat. But today, the door was tightly closed!

Shen Liti breathed a sigh of relief and then opened her door unhurriedly.

As she pushed open the door, a fresh scent greeted her. The kitchen, which was usually covered in a layer of greasy soot, was now spotless. Not only was the countertop immaculate, but even the stainless steel faucet was shining like new. Moreover, the kitchen countertop was neatly arranged with cooking condiments.

"Impossible! Could it be that Mr. Shaman is planning to cook?" Shen Liti was even more surprised by this than by Xia Yunjie's "miraculous" display earlier, her eyes wide open.

When she finally managed to shift her gaze from the kitchen to the living room, she was shocked again.

The living room, which was usually a bit messy, was now spotless, and the cushions on the sofa were neatly arranged.

"Impossible!" Shen Liti exclaimed, then curiously ran to the bathroom, only to find it equally clean, making her feel like she was staying in a five-star hotel.

After checking the bathroom, Shen Liti suddenly remembered something and rushed into her bedroom.

When she entered the bedroom, she saw that her bras, panties, and stockings were still scattered around, and she breathed a sigh of relief, patting her chest: "Thank goodness, this guy didn't bother to tidy up my room."

After saying that, Shen Liti realized that it was impossible for him to have done so, as her bedroom door was locked. She couldn't help but giggle to herself.

After laughing, Shen Liti, for the first time, didn't rush to the bathroom to wash off the dust. Instead, she inspected the entire room like a leader, nodding in satisfaction as she went.

Especially when she saw the faucet that was so clean it could be used as a mirror, she found it hard to believe that anyone could clean a faucet so thoroughly.

Walking through the newly cleaned house, Shen Liti felt for the first time that living with Xia Yunjie wasn't such a bad thing. At least a man like him could protect her from perverts and help with cleaning.

Just then, her phone rang. In a good mood, Shen Liti answered without looking.

"How was living with Mr. Shaman for a day?" Du Haiqiong's voice came from the phone.

"Pretty good!" Shen Liti replied instinctively, lightly touching the shiny stainless steel faucet. Her mother, a diligent housewife, hadn't even managed to clean the faucet so well.

"Now you know, right? If I hadn't gone to Hong Kong, it would have been your turn to live with Mr. Shaman." Du Haiqiong said smugly.

"Alright, stop calling him Mr. Shaman. Are you really sure he's gay? I don't think so." Shen Liti, who was no longer as resistant to living with Xia Yunjie as she was last night, still couldn't forget the incident where he had seen her body.

Of course, if Xia Yunjie was really gay, she might feel a bit better.

"Of course he is. Think about it, with my figure and looks, do you think any man could resist me? I really sacrificed a lot for you. Next time I come back to Jiangzhou, you have to spend the night with me, hehe!" Du Haiqiong said playfully.

"Tell me, how did you try to seduce him?" Shen Liti asked curiously.

"Do you know when I met him?"

"No."

"At midnight. Do you know what I was wearing?"

"No."

"A very sexy strapless top and a mini skirt. I even deliberately pulled down half of the top. What do you think his reaction was?"

"What was his reaction?"

"He actually refused to live with me! I had to beg and plead, lower the rent by fifty yuan, waive his internet fee for a month, and pretend that someone was harassing me and needed his help before he finally agreed."

"Impossible!"

"Right, if he wasn't gay, would he refuse a beautiful flight attendant like me? He would probably crawl to beg me!"

"That's true, but something was off last night... cough!" Shen Liti almost let it slip again.

"What's off?" Du Haiqiong perked up when she heard Shen Liti's hesitation.

"Nothing, I just mean that his arm strength is pretty strong, not like a gay man's." Shen Liti blushed, her mind filled with the image of the handsome man from last night, his aroused state.

Now she was a bit confused. Was Xia Yunjie attracted to men or women? If he was attracted to women, as Du Haiqiong said, it didn't make sense for him to refuse to live with a beautiful flight attendant. If he was attracted to men, Shen Liti clearly felt that his gaze was fiery when he saw her body, and his reaction when she entered the room was obvious.

Could he be attracted to both men and women? This thought suddenly popped into Shen Liti's mind, but she quickly dismissed it. If he was attracted to both, he would be happy to live with a beautiful flight attendant.
