Working in Dongguan: The Girls I Met Over the Years

Chapter 184 Kind Girl



Chapter 184 Kind Girl

Fat Tiger was startled and his body went limp instantly.

His face was pale, and he retreated step by step.

After a while, feeling light on his feet, he hid behind Ma Junjie.

He stammered, his voice choked with emotion,

"Jay... Brother Jay, this is terrible, a... a ghost has really appeared!"

"Waaah, Brother Jie... I... we're going to die here!"

Ma Junjie turned his head.

With a "smack," he reached out and slapped Fat Tiger on the head.

"Gian, what are you chickening out for!"

"In this world, people are scarier than ghosts. If you're not afraid of people, what's there to be afraid of about ghosts?"

As he spoke, Ma Junjie prepared to leave the bedroom to see what was happening outside.

Fat Tiger whimpered softly, his voice trembling with a sob.

"Brother Jie, no, no..."

"Brother Jie..."

Ma Junjie didn't believe in superstitions. Besides, if there really were ghosts, he had no grudge against her, had a clear conscience, and wasn't afraid.

Ma Junjie walked to the slightly ajar door, reached out his hand, and was about to open it.

suddenly,

A red shoe was revealed.

Then, with a "creak,"

The door was pushed open from the outside.

Fat Tiger looked up and immediately saw the red shoes.

He could no longer control himself.

With a scream of "Ah!", she cried out in alarm.

"A ghost! A ghost!"

Ma Junjie was also puzzled and stared intently at the doorway.

The exposed shoe paused noticeably upon hearing Gian's voice.

Then,

A figure walked in.

Ma Junjie suddenly raised his head and quickly looked at what had come in.

Upon looking,

With a cry of surprise, she immediately exclaimed.

"Xuemei, is that you?!"

Indeed, the one who walked in wearing red shoes was none other than Li Xuemei.

Li Xuemei was also surprised, staring wide-eyed at Ma Junjie.

He exclaimed in surprise.

"Brother Jie, are you in there?"

"When did you arrive?"

Hearing voices, Fat Tiger on the ground slowly raised his head.

Upon looking,

Li Xuemei was recognized.

Fat Tiger's highly tense nerves instantly relaxed, and he kept patting his chest.

Li Xuemei also noticed the fat tiger on the ground.

He asked in confusion,

"Hey, Gian, why are you sitting on the ground?"

Gian exhaled with a "whoosh" sound.

Pretending to be nonchalant, he slowly stood up from the ground.

He said,

"I...I'm a little hot, the ground is cool, it's cool..."

Ma Junjie chuckled upon hearing this, then looked at Li Xuemei and said,

"Xuemei, your sudden appearance just now startled us."

Li Xuemei was puzzled, then exclaimed in surprise, "Ah!"

Then he chuckled.

"Brother Jie, Fatty Tiger, you two are so big, you think you can scare me in broad daylight?"

"Hehe, you guys are joking, right?"

Upon hearing this, Fat Tiger became somewhat angry.

He turned his head and blurted out,

"Li Xuemei, who's joking with you?"

"That's because you don't know, you don't know that this room is a death trap..."

"Fat Tiger, shut up!" Ma Junjie suddenly interrupted Fat Tiger.

Upon hearing this, Fat Tiger stopped, gave Li Xuemei a somewhat resentful look, and then continued to brush the dust off his body.

Li Xuemei was very surprised and asked...

"Brother Jie, did I say something wrong?"

"Why is Gian reacting so strongly?"

"By the way, what did he say he was doing in this house?"

Ma Junjie smiled slightly and said,

"Xuemei, it's nothing, don't overthink it."

"By the way, I still don't understand, how did you suddenly appear?"

Li Xuemei suddenly felt a little embarrassed when asked that question.

Ma Junjie saw that Li Xuemei did not answer.

He looked her up and down.

Suddenly, he realized that his missing clothes were actually being held in Li Xuemei's hand.

"Xuemei, how did those clothes end up with you...?"

Upon hearing this, Li Xuemei looked down at the clothes in her hands.

Knowing that things couldn't be hidden anymore.

She said,

"Brother Jie, here's what happened. I heard from your coworker that you didn't go to work, so I came to check on you after get off work at noon."

"When I got to your house, I found the door locked. I was about to leave, but then I remembered you left your key on the windowsill, so I opened the door and came in..."

Ma Junjie stared wide-eyed at Li Xuemei in disbelief.

Muttering to himself,

"You...you came in...is there something you need?"

Upon hearing this, Li Xuemei noticed Ma Junjie's surprise.

She quickly explained,

"Brother Jie, you... don't overthink it. I used your key to open the door and come in; I wasn't doing anything bad or stealing anything."

"Besides, your newly rented house has nothing there. Even if I were to do something bad, I wouldn't steal from your house."

Ma Junjie chuckled.

I thought that made sense, but I was still a little puzzled.

He said...

"Xuemei, I know for sure you're not that kind of person."

"But I still don't quite understand, why did you come in...?"

Li Xuemei was clearly embarrassed by the persistent questioning, and suddenly exclaimed "Ouch!"

She stretched the clothes in her hand forward and stuffed them directly into Ma Junjie's arms.

To be honest,

"I came here to clean for you, is it done now!"

"Last time I came here, I noticed that your place was a mess. I... I know you must be busy with work and don't have time, so I thought I'd take some time to come and help you clean up."

"When I came in, I saw that your clothes were lying around, so I washed them for you since the weather was nice."

"Hmph, look at you, I'm so kind but you don't appreciate it, you even doubt me, I feel so heartbroken!"

Ma Junjie was genuinely shocked to hear this.

He hadn't expected Li Xuemei to care about him so much.

Even after get off work, I took some time to come over, thinking of cleaning myself.

She is truly a kind and thoughtful girl.

After listening to Li Xuemei's words, Ma Junjie understood.

Why did you come in looking for clothes? They were clearly on the bed, but I can't find them anywhere.

By a twist of fate, they ended up finding Wang Na's skirt under the bed.

This...this must be fate!

Seeing that Li Xuemei was a little angry, Ma Junjie said apologetically,

"Xuemei, don't be angry. I've never doubted you from the beginning."

"I was just curious, but I didn't expect you to be such a kind and helpful friend!"

"Good friends?" Upon hearing this, Li Xuemei suddenly let out a "humph."

Ma Junjie's explanation only made her angrier.

Li Xuemei said indignantly.

"Brother Jie, I... I was so blind! I brought this on myself!"

Goodbye, I'll never come back again!

After saying that, Li Xuemei turned around and walked towards the door without looking back.

Ma Junjie was very puzzled.

He thought to himself, "I didn't say anything wrong, did I? Why is Li Xuemei suddenly angry?"

Sigh, women are just like the weather in March, changing in an instant, and you can never figure out what they're thinking.

Ma Junjie shouted,

"Xuemei, don't go! Let me explain..."

Li Xuemei showed no sign of stopping; instead, she sped up and ran faster and faster!

When Ma Junjie ran to the door, he saw Li Xuemei's back, which had already disappeared outside the courtyard.

"Sigh!" Ma Junjie stopped and let out a heavy sigh.

My gaze swept across the yard and I saw trousers that Li Xuemei had washed hanging there, fluttering in the wind like a kite.

At this moment, Fat Tiger walked over, grinning at Ma Junjie.

He patted Ma Junjie on the shoulder and said,

"Brother Jie, it was a false alarm!"

"Brother Jie, we've found your pants and clothes. Grab your things and let's go."

After he finished speaking, he saw Ma Junjie staring motionless at the door.

Fat Tiger suddenly understood.

He chuckled.

"Brother Jie, I've discovered that you excel in many ways."

"But when it comes to women, you're even more clueless than me!"

Ma Junjie was startled, and looked at Pang Hu as he came to his senses.

"Gian, what nonsense are you spouting!"

Fat Tiger chuckled, slowly closed the door, and then placed the key on the windowsill.

Said,

"Brother Jie, didn't you realize that Li Xuemei just now... she likes you!"
