13: Keep the bag, I'll carry it myself.
Before long, Liu Yunshang walked toward him, holding a delicately packaged box that was marked with "Fragile, Handle with Care."
"Sister Liu, let me carry that for you."
Chen Kai quickly stepped forward and took the delivery box from Liu Yunshang's arms.
"Thank you, little Brother, how are you so thoughtful?"
Liu Yunshang covered her lips and smiled, a strange look appearing in her eyes as she looked at Chen Kai.
She looked down at the bag in Chen Kai's hand. She actually quite liked this style; she had taken a fancy to it at the Hermès store last time, but she hadn't bought it because her storage cabinet at home was full.
This bag was also frequently out of stock at Hermès stores in the country.
Now that she suddenly saw the bag in person, she liked it again.
Chen Kai chuckled, "It's mainly because I can't bear to let Sister Liu carry something so heavy."
He weighed the delivery box in his hands; it was quite heavy, at least eight or nine jin.
It sounded like a stone, so it was probably a decorative item for the house.
"Hmm! As expected of my good little Brother."
Liu Yunshang rolled her eyes, raised a slender hand, and touched his cheek.
Chen Kai paused for a moment.
"What the hell?"
"Wait, this isn't right!"
"Are you treating Brother like prey?"
He remained silent and continued walking, helping her deliver the item all the way to her door.
"I won't go in to sit, I still have some things to do."
"Really not coming in for a bit?"
"I won't go in, I'll come keep Sister Liu company next time."
"Okay, it's a deal."
Chen Kai then closed the door for Liu Yunshang. Just after going downstairs, he discovered that Liu Yunshang had transferred five hundred to him on WeChat.
[Liu Yunshang: Go buy some skincare products, thank you little Brother for helping me bring it up.]
Chen Kai quickly replied, "Sister Liu, you're too kind. It was just a small favor, you don't need to transfer so much."
[This is a special reward for little Brother, not your delivery fee.]
Chen Kai paused, recalling that scene from earlier.
To be honest, faced with a woman with such moving temperament, unbelievable beauty, and a very "gOOd" figure, it would be a lie to say he had no thoughts.
But given his current economic situation, he should just forget it.
He simply accepted the five hundred and stood downstairs at Liu Yunshang's place, taking a picture of the bag for Zheng Liu Chang.
"Take a look, does your Pawnshop accept this bag?"
[Zheng Liu Chang: It should be acceptable, I don't really know. I'm not at the store today. The Jade Rough Stone exhibition is coming up in a while, and the Iceberg Female President has me out trying to Score a Bargain. Come over tomorrow and ask my boss; she should know quite a bit about bags.]
Chen Kai sent an "OK" gesture and didn't linger. He bought some pig head meat on the side of the road and went home at noon.
"I'll leave the bag at home first. I heard that if these luxury bags get wet or sit in the sun for too long, it costs a lot of money to maintain them. It's not worth losing nearly ten thousand just to make two or three hundred on a delivery."
Chen Kai placed the bag on the table and had a sudden urge to check what model it was.
"What was that English term Sister Liu mentioned again?"
He muttered in confusion, but Liu Yunshang being able to recognize the style of this bag at a glance meant she definitely had a good eye.
Thinking of this, the image of the Iceberg Female President that Zheng Liu Chang mentioned popped into his mind; she was usually stern and he had never seen her smile.
"That shouldn't be right, Sister Liu is so gentle; you can't see any of that Iceberg temperament in her."
Chen Kai shook his head, dismissing the unrealistic fantasy in his mind.
After eating and drinking, it was four or five o'clock, so he decided to just take a nap.
...
At exactly twelve midnight, Chen Kai was woken up by his alarm clock.
The data in front of him refreshed with intelligence right on time.
[Today's Intelligence: The host's Emma brand electric scooter will fall behind in a street race. It is recommended that the host modify the electric scooter's motor and battery.]
Chen Kai was a bit stunned. Today's intelligence is just this? Just this??!
Are you kidding me? He's just delivering food, and he's going to fall behind in a race with someone?
Who could he possibly race against?
Chen Kai was a bit confused by today's intelligence. He was hoping for another piece of intelligence worth tens of thousands, or even a few thousand would have been fine, but this was it?
He shook his head helplessly, turned off the alarm, and went back to sleep.
He planned to wake up tomorrow and sell the bag first; whether to modify the electric scooter or not could be decided later.
...
The next morning, after Chen Kai woke up and washed up, he grabbed the bag and headed straight for Yunshang Pavilion.
When he arrived in front of Yunshang Pavilion, he parked his little electric donkey.
He didn't know if it was just psychological, but Chen Kai felt that the little electric donkey was lacking power.
As soon as he pushed the door open, Zheng Liu Chang was slurping noodles, covered in sweat.
"Son, you're here so early?"
Chen Kai smiled, "Isn't it to come and see my son earlier?"
He walked quickly to the table and placed the Hermès bag on the tray.
"Take a look, will you buy it? Give me a price."
Zheng Liu Chang reluctantly pushed the noodles aside and let out a helpless sigh.
"Why are you sighing? It's fine to eat one less meal. With that figure, how are you going to find a wife later?"
"Which beautiful female president would like you, eating four meals a day?"
Chen Kai teased him with a smile. They often joked like this, and their daily chats always started with swearing.
"It's fine, your son won't laugh at his dad, and aren't you single too? As close Brothers, I certainly can't go off and find a girlfriend to be happy alone."
"Am I a good friend or what? I'm only single because of you!"
Chen Kai curled his lip, "Oh, give it a rest. If I had a girlfriend and you didn't, I'd be afraid of hurting your self-esteem."
"Small problem. As long as your girlfriend isn't a gentle, virtuous young lady or an obedient beautiful female president, it's fine. Otherwise, I'll just jump off from here."
Zheng Liu Chang chuckled, examining the material of the bag with his hands, then turned the lining of the bag inside out, confirming twice that it was authentic.
"I'll ask the Female Boss if she wants to buy it. It's rare for people to bring top-tier luxury items to our shop to sell for money."
As he spoke, he took a photo and sent it to the Iceberg Female President boss.
The other end of the phone only replied with "Hmm."
Zheng Liu Chang was used to this Iceberg Female President's attitude. He put down his phone and looked at Chen Kai, "We'll take it. The market price for this bag is twenty-three or twenty-four thousand, I'll buy it for twenty-two thousand."
"Deal. Just transfer it to my WeChat."
Chen Kai nodded and turned to walk out of the shop.
Zheng Liu Chang watched Chen Kai walk out the door and brought the noodles back in front of him. Just as he was about to take a slurp, his phone beeped again.
He quickly picked up his phone to take a look.
[Iceberg Female President: Keep the bag, I will carry it myself. Put it in the office.]
He quickly sent an "OK" emoji.
...
On the other end of the phone, a woman wearing charming black silk stockings sat on her sofa, looking at the bag in the picture, a man involuntarily appearing in her mind.
"It wouldn't be that little brat who sold it, would it? That would be quite a coincidence."
"Forget it, I'll go get the bag back now."
The woman quickly stood up, stepped into her high-heeled shoes, and pushed open the door...
