37: Pickup - 3

Su Ning closed the door, still hugging her arms, looking at Jiang Ye. She first let out a light hum, then spoke:

"Hey, Courier, let's get something straight first. Last time... when you delivered takeout to me and secretly took a photo, I didn't report you."

Jiang Ye listened to her tone, so different from the one in the livestream, and smiled: "Thank you for being lenient. But I really didn't..."

"Enough, let's drop the past. I won't pursue it."

Su Ning directly waved her hand to cut him off, seemingly not wanting to dwell on that issue, her tone turning somewhat forceful: "Today, since you're helping me pick up the package, you'll have to do me a few favors as well."

"What favors? Tell me."

She extended a slender finger, her expression serious: "First, and most crucial! Later, if the person who placed the order... the one who called you here, asks about my situation, you say I left the item at the elevator entrance. You arrived, took it directly, and left without ever seeing me in person! Got it?"

Jiang Ye chuckled inwardly; this woman was indeed cautious.

He cooperatively nodded: "Got it. Didn't see anyone, item left at the elevator entrance, took it and left."

Seeing his cooperation, Su Ning extended a second finger: "Second, help me keep an eye out. The person who called you here, what kind of neighborhood does he live in? How old is he? What does he look like? What's your impression of him? Best... hmm, if you could secretly take a photo for me, that would be ideal."

As she said this, her eyes held obvious curiosity and a probing desire.

Jiang Ye: "..."

The corner of his mouth began to twitch uncontrollably, feeling as if an invisible boomerang was flying back at light speed, precisely hitting him between the eyebrows.

I! Just! Knew! It!

Is this my forced paranoia?

Damn it!

Everyone's playing this game, huh?

Investigating me now?

Su Ning, seeing his strange expression, frowned: "What? Is it difficult? I won't make you do it for free."

Jiang Ye quickly composed his expression and nodded: "No, I can do it. It's just... a bit unexpected."

Seeing him agree, Su Ning's tightly furrowed brows relaxed slightly. She raised a third finger, her tone carrying a warning:

"Third, the item I'm giving you is sealed in its packaging! You absolutely must not open it midway! Hear me? This is private! Understand?"

Jiang Ye nodded again, speechless.

You know about privacy?

Then why the hell are you having someone secretly photographed... Su Ning, seeing he agreed to all three conditions, finally softened her tone a bit.

She took out her phone and waved it: "I won't make you help for free. I'll add you on WeChat and transfer you a 100-yuan red packet as a token of appreciation and information fee."

Upon hearing about adding WeChat, alarm bells instantly rang in Jiang Ye's mind!

Wouldn't scanning the QR code expose everything?

He quickly pursed his lips, pretending to be very troubled:

"Uh... well, sorry, Miss, my WeChat isn't very convenient. How about... you transfer it to me via Alipay? It's the same."

Su Ning looked at him in surprise, seeming to think this Delivery Courier was quite particular, but didn't dwell on it—it's normal for girlfriends to be strict nowadays, especially in a place like Shengtian.

She pulled up the Alipay scanning page: "Fine, Alipay it is."

Jiang Ye secretly sighed in relief and took out his phone for her to scan.

Soon, with a "ding," 100 yuan arrived in his account.

After the transfer, Su Ning put away her phone, her tone turning serious again as she emphasized:

"You've taken the money, so you must follow the three requirements I mentioned earlier. Last time with the delivery, you definitely said something you shouldn't have to the person who placed the order, which caused me quite a bit of trouble. If it happens again this time, I will definitely report you! And I'll have my friends report you too! Make sure you can't work in this area anymore!"

Jiang Ye held back a laugh, maintaining an honest and simple expression on his face, nodding repeatedly: "Don't worry, Miss, definitely won't mess up! We value our reputation!"

As he spoke, his gaze involuntarily swept over Su Ning.

Up close, this woman's figure and looks were impeccable, a perfect blend of youthful charm with a hint of natural allure.

Now, having confirmed she wasn't involved in any shady "offline business," she seemed like a high-quality potential stock worth long-term investment and deep development.

Su Ning turned and walked into the bedroom. After a moment, she came out holding a small cardboard box and a small package wrapped in an exquisite gift bag, handing them to Jiang Ye, emphasizing once more with concern:

"Don't mess this up! It's really important!"

Jiang Ye took the items. The cardboard box felt a bit heavy in his hands, while the gift bag was light and airy:

"No problem! Mission guaranteed! You can rest assured a hundred times over!"

He turned to leave, but Su Ning suddenly called out: "Hey! Wait a minute!"

Jiang Ye stopped and looked back, puzzled.

Su Ning's face flashed with hesitation and awkwardness, seeming conflicted. She quickly turned and hurried back into the bedroom, emerging with a bottle of Perfume.

She took the gift bag from Jiang Ye's hands, opened the outer wrapping paper to reveal a smaller soft cloth bag inside.

Then, picking up the Perfume, she sprayed it several times onto the soft cloth bag with a "pssht pssht" sound. A light, sweet floral-fruity fragrance instantly filled the air.

She quickly repackaged it and handed it back to Jiang Ye, her tone a bit unnatural: "Alright, that should do it. Go ahead."

Jiang Ye: "..."

He took the bag, smelling the faint Perfume scent, feeling utterly speechless inside.

Is this sister faking a natural body scent?

I'm impressed!

This level of service awareness is way too thorough.

Suppressing the urge to Make complaints, he scratched his head, picked up the items, and turned to leave.

Just as he reached the elevator lobby, while waiting for the elevator, Jiang Ye eagerly diverted a sliver of consciousness into the system interface in his mind.

Two new income records were prominently listed:

"[Received from Su Ning: One box of specialty Hazelnuts, system assessed value: 120 yuan. Triggered 1000% cashback, obtained 1200 yuan.]"

"[Received from Su Ning: One set of ladies' Underwear, system assessed value: 80 yuan. Triggered 1000% cashback, obtained 800 yuan.]"

"Beautiful!"

Jiang Ye nodded in satisfaction; another 2000 yuan in hand!

He quickly looked at the progress bar of the "gentleman mission" he'd been keeping an eye on.

Sure enough, the number next to the mission progress bar had jumped from (1/3) to (2/3)!

Haha! Perfect! Just one more item to go!

Jiang Ye, delighted, was about to exit the system interface when suddenly, as if struck by lightning, he turned back and took a closer look at the second record.

Underwear?!

His eyes instantly widened, a strange feeling welling up inside.

What the hell did this sister... give me?! Didn't she say just grab a hair tie or clip or something?
