Chapter 1

"Hello, hello."

"Hello, hello, is this Ms. Wang Yaxin? This is Jieda Express, you have a few packages that have arrived." Fang Zhiqiang said in a routine manner, looking at the delivery slip in his hand.

"Where are you?" The so-called Ms. Wang Yaxin on the other end asked coldly, but Fang Zhiqiang had to admit that her voice was very pleasant to hear.

"I'm outside your neighborhood. I was supposed to deliver them to your door, but the security guard wouldn't let me in, so I have to trouble you to come out and pick them up. Alternatively, you can call the security guard to explain, and I can deliver them to your door." Fang Zhiqiang explained. There was no way around it; this was a high-end villa area with strict security, and the security guards would never let delivery people like Fang Zhiqiang into the neighborhood.

"I'm at work now, not at home."

"In that case, I'll leave your packages at the security guard's office. Please inform the security guard to sign for them on your behalf."

"No, my items are all overseas purchases, quite valuable, and I need to inspect them in person."

"But... but you're not at home, right?" Fang Zhiqiang was a bit at a loss.

"Wait for me there, I'll be off work in two hours."

"Ah... How about this, Miss Wang, you tell me when you'll be home tomorrow or the day after, and I'll deliver them then. I have many more deliveries to make today, I..."

"I don't want to hear any more. I need these items today; I can't wait until tomorrow. I get off work at 5:30, and I'll be home by 6 at the latest. Wait for me at the neighborhood entrance at 6. If you're not there by 6, I'll call to complain. That's it!" The woman on the other end said very unreasonably and hung up the phone.

"Damn, what's her problem, did she eat gunpowder or is she in menopause?" Fang Zhiqiang couldn't help but curse after hanging up. As a delivery man, he had seen all kinds of people, and being treated poorly was a common occurrence, but he still couldn't help but curse.

Looking at the time, it was only a little past three. If he waited for her until 6, he wouldn't be able to finish delivering all the packages in his van today. If he got complaints, his salary for this month would be in jeopardy. Their company had very strict management, and customer complaints could result in severe fines or even dismissal. But if he didn't wait, this woman in menopause would definitely complain. Fang Zhiqiang had no choice but to immediately ride his electric tricycle to the next delivery address, hoping to get back here before 6. What could he do, he was just a miserable delivery man.

In a place like Shanghai, the number of daily deliveries was almost astronomical. Each delivery man for each company had a staggering workload. Fang Zhiqiang, for example, worked from morning till night, without even a proper lunch break. Because he had to be back here by 6, he had to speed up to deliver the other packages.

Finally, he finished delivering all the other packages for the day. Fang Zhiqiang revved up his electric tricycle and headed back to the villa area. When he arrived at the entrance, he was about to call when he suddenly saw a woman walking towards him.

This woman was very beautiful, stunningly so. Although Fang Zhiqiang had been a delivery man for only a few months, he had seen countless people in the international metropolis of Shanghai, including many beautiful women. However, this level of beauty was the first he had ever seen. The woman didn't look old, Fang Zhiqiang estimated she was no more than 30, probably around 28 or 29. She exuded a mature woman's aura and had the authority and coldness of a superior, giving Fang Zhiqiang the first impression of a domineering female CEO.

"No need to call, I'm Wang Yaxin." The woman said coldly as she walked up to Fang Zhiqiang.

Fang Zhiqiang was taken aback, then he forced a smile and said, "I'm really sorry to have kept you waiting."

"We agreed on 6, and it's already 5 minutes past 6. I've already called your company to complain about you." The woman said without acknowledging Fang Zhiqiang.

Fang Zhiqiang's eyes widened, and he was furious. He burst out, "What the hell, is 5 minutes that big a deal?"

"What did you say? Are you cursing me?" The woman raised her eyebrows.

Fang Zhiqiang knew cursing was wrong, so he calmed down and said, "Miss, I..."

"Who are you calling 'Miss'?" The woman was even more displeased.

"Sorry... Miss Wang, I waited for over two hours to deliver your package. We have a delivery route, from the nearest to the farthest, and I had to go to the farthest place and then come back. You know, I'm on an electric tricycle, which can't go that fast. You complained just because of 5 minutes, that's... that's... too unreasonable, right?" Fang Zhiqiang felt deeply wronged. He wanted to say "unethical," but he held back. If the situation worsened and she complained again, it would be a disaster.

"Running around more is your problem. Since you're in a service industry, you should understand the principles of service. Five minutes, or even one second, is a problem with your service attitude. I've told the security guard, follow my car in, and deliver them to my house." The woman didn't listen to Fang Zhiqiang and got into a beautiful BMW 7 Series parked at the entrance, then drove into the neighborhood.

"Damn, what a bitch, clearly unsatisfied, no man at home, menopause. My 500 yuan! Damn! I lost it to this woman today. Old Bi was right, beautiful women are all venomous, not a single good one." Fang Zhiqiang cursed fiercely as he followed the BMW on his tricycle.

This was a villa area, and the entire neighborhood was like a large park, with green trees and a very elegant environment. Behind rows of trees and flowers, luxurious villas were hidden. To be honest, although Fang Zhiqiang had been a delivery man for a few months, this was the first time he had delivered to such a high-end villa area, which gave him his first glimpse of the lifestyle of the rich.

The BMW wasn't driving fast, clearly waiting for Fang Zhiqiang, but even at a slow speed, it was much faster than his second-hand tricycle. Fang Zhiqiang almost lost sight of it, but he managed to follow it into the courtyard of a villa.

Fang Zhiqiang parked his tricycle behind the BMW and got off.

"There are 11 packages in total, please sign for each one." Fang Zhiqiang took out a stack of slips from his bag, checked them, and handed them to Wang Yaxin.

"Help me open each one, I need to check that the items are intact before I sign." The woman said coldly.

"Miss Wang, it's correct for you to check the items before signing, but the opening must be done by you. We don't open the packages. If I open them and there's a problem, it becomes my responsibility, and who will I complain to then?"
