Beautiful Woman, You Have Another Express Delivery! (GL) - Chapter 2

Cheng Qiuyi looked out the window, and after a while, she said, “I went abroad and only recently returned.”

“Oh…” Liu Shuhan actually wanted to say more, such as you could have sent me a text message even if you were abroad, or why you hadn’t contacted me for nine years, and many other things. But when she saw Cheng Qiuyi’s reluctance to talk about it, she wisely kept quiet. This was Cheng Qiuyi’s private matter, and no matter how good their relationship was before, she was just an outsider now.

“What about you? Why did you start working as a courier?” Cheng Qiuyi walked over to Liu Shuhan and sat down next to her arm.

As soon as Liu Shuhan smelled Cheng Qiuyi’s perfume, her heart started racing and she found it difficult to breathe. She moved slightly to the side before replying, “I failed the college entrance exam that year, so I didn’t continue studying. I did a lot of jobs that I wasn’t satisfied with, and now I’m delivering express packages.”

Cheng Qiuyi stared at her own toes and made an ambiguous ‘hmm’ sound, unclear if she was actually listening to Liu Shuhan.

Liu Shuhan wasn’t angry. She chuckled, “Don’t get me wrong, being a courier is tiring, but it’s quite interesting. I get to meet so many beautiful women!”

Cheng Qiuyi’s eyes flickered, and she smiled along with her, “When you were in high school, you loved staring at all the beauties in the school. I didn’t expect you to not change a bit after all these years.”

Liu Shuhan lowered her head, feigning shyness.

“Still single?” Cheng Qiuyi asked.

“Yeah.” Liu Shuhan leaned against the back of the chair, looking at the ceiling. “With my salary of less than ten thousand a month, how dare I date?”

“Less than ten thousand is pretty good, isn’t it? How much money do you think you can earn that is ‘enough’?”

“Sister, three thousand a month is also ‘less than ten thousand’.”

“Then how much is your actual monthly salary?”

“Two thousand eight…”

Cheng Qiuyi laughed, “That’s indeed not enough for dating.”

“What about you? Do you have a significant other?” Liu Shuhan laughed at herself after asking, ‘Isn’t that a stupid question?’ Back in high school, the people who chased Cheng Qiuyi could form a reinforced company, and it was a mixed group of both men and women! It would be strange if she didn’t have a partner.

To her surprise, Cheng Qiuyi replied, “No.”

“No?” Liu Shuhan was astonished, and a tiny bit of joy rose in her heart. “Impossible, big beauty. You’re so pretty and you don’t have a partner?”

“Who says being pretty means you can’t be single?” Cheng Qiuyi smiled at Liu Shuhan, her eyes looking at her as soft as water. “But I have someone I like. I came back to the country just for her.”

“I see…” Liu Shuhan’s cheerful expression dimmed. “Then I wish you success in winning her over soon.”

Cheng Qiuyi reached out and patted her on the head, “I’ll take the well wishes from a dullard like you.”

Liu Shuhan lowered her head, feeling sullen.

After a moment of silence, Cheng Qiuyi suddenly said again, “Both your hands are injured, and you won’t be able to take care of yourself for a while. Why don’t you come stay at my place for a few days? We can talk about everything else once your injuries are healed.”

“This… wouldn’t that be inappropriate?” Liu Shuhan hesitated. Although living in a beautiful woman’s house was what she desired most, she still had to work. Without work, how would she earn money to support herself?

Cheng Qiuyi saw through her thoughts. “I’ll find someone to cover your shift for a few days. Don’t worry, it won’t affect your earnings.”

Liu Shuhan’s face immediately lit up with joy, and she happily trotted along after Cheng Qiuyi. “Haha, how could I possibly accept…”

…

Cheng Qiuyi currently lived in YAYUAN residential area, which was the same area where Liu Shuhan was responsible for express deliveries. This area was considered one of the high-end communities in City C. The greenery and maintenance were very well done. Cheng Qiuyi’s apartment was on the 15th floor with a very good view. The spacious and bright balcony faced the river, and there was a lounge chair beside the balcony, making it comfortable and leisurely.

Liu Shuhan looked at it with envy. There’s no denying that some people are naturally more capable than others. Cheng Qiuyi was only one year older than her, just 26 this year, and look how comfortable her life was! Then she looked at herself, struggling to earn two or three thousand dollars a month, rain or shine, even struggling to afford food… This comparison made Liu Shuhan, no matter how thick-skinned, feel a bit embarrassed.

“What’s wrong?” Cheng Qiuyi found it strange. The dullard was as excited as a puppy when she first entered the door, so why did she look so down now?

Liu Shuhan lay on the lounge chair and looked at Cheng Qiuyi resentfully, “Your house is so big…”

Cheng Qiuyi smiled, “You like it?”

Liu Shuhan nodded vigorously, “I love it!” How could she not like such a beautiful house! She dreamed of having her own little place, not too big, 20 square meters would be great, where she could do whatever she wanted. However, looking at the skyrocketing housing prices in City C over the past two years, this dream would probably never come true.

“Then why don’t you just move in with me? Sometimes it feels really creepy living in this house alone.”

Liu Shuhan only thought Cheng Qiuyi was being polite and smiled while hugging a pillow, not responding. The temptation of being under the same roof as Cheng Qiuyi was too great. She was afraid that she might lose control accidentally, and besides, there was the terrifying combat strength of Great Beauty Cheng… Liu Shuhan shuddered while lying on the lounge chair.

Cheng Qiuyi was as casual with her as she was before. She took off her outer clothes and pants right in the living room and wandered around the room in just her underwear, looking for pajamas. Her limbs were long and well-proportioned, without an ounce of extra fat on her body. Her abdominal definition was clearly visible, and her br3asts, wrapped in two thin pieces of lace, stood proudly. This figure absolutely outshone those so-called celebrity models in magazines.

Liu Shuhan watched the half-naked Cheng Qiuyi, feeling dry-mouthed. She buried her face in the pillow, blushing, but couldn’t hold back for more than three seconds. She secretly lifted her eyelids a crack and tried her best to peek at Cheng Qiuyi’s body.

Yet, Cheng Qiuyi was oblivious to her own charm. She walked over to Liu Shuhan with pajamas draped over her arm and pulled her head out of the pillow. “I’m going to take a shower first. If you’re hungry, have some biscuits to tide you over. I’ll take you out to eat later.” She reached for a small bag of biscuits from the shelf beneath the lounge chair and put it in Liu Shuhan’s hand.

Liu Shuhan’s eyes were filled with Cheng Qiuyi’s almost spilling out chest, and she was almost out of her mind. She barely knew what Cheng Qiuyi said and just kept nodding. Only after Cheng Qiuyi entered the bathroom did she come to her senses, shouting towards the bathroom, “Why eat out at a restaurant? It’s expensive and unhygienic. Do you have ingredients at home? I’ll cook for you—”

Cheng Qiuyi was washing her hair and answered through the sound of water, “Your two trotters are all wrapped in bandages. How are you going to cook? Let’s just make do with eating out.”

Liu Shuhan realized she had a point and lay on the chair without saying anything more.

About half an hour later, Cheng Qiuyi finally emerged from the bathroom. She was wrapped only in a bath towel, barely covering her upper thighs. Her long hair was wet and scattered over her slender shoulders, and a section of her delicate collarbone was visible through the strands, making Liu Shuhan stare blankly again.

“Sister, I beg you, please put on some clothes—” Liu Shuhan broke down. Didn’t you take pajamas into the bathroom? If you’re not going to wear them, what did you take them for? It’s torture to look but not be able to eat! She began to feel fortunate that she hadn’t moved in with Cheng Qiuyi. Otherwise, with such a beautiful woman with a serious tendency to expose herself constantly walking around in front of her, she would probably start getting feverish and having nosebleeds one day.

“I was going to take you out to eat, so I was too lazy to change. Why are you reacting so strongly?” Cheng Qiuyi plugged in the hairdryer and began to dry her hair, then put on makeup, changed clothes, and did her hair. It took another hour before she stood in front of Liu Shuhan, seductively flipping her hair at her. “Am I beautiful?”

Liu Shuhan was so hungry that she was sprawled out on the chair. Even if an immortal was in front of her, she didn’t have the energy to appreciate it. She glanced at Cheng Qiuyi and responded perfunctorily, “Beautiful, drop-dead gorgeous…”

“What’s wrong with you? Why are you so listless all of a sudden?”

“You’re drop-dead gorgeous, and I’m about to starve to death…”

Cheng Qiuyi grabbed Liu Shuhan’s arm and pulled her up. “Alright, alright, come on, come on, I’ll take you to eat now.”

And so, at half-past two in the afternoon, Liu Shuhan finally had her lunch.

…

It must be said that besides not knowing how to cook, Cheng Qiuyi was practically perfect in every other aspect, except… she had a bit of OCD.

Used items had to be put back in their exact original place, and the order could not be messed up. The toilet paper in the bathroom had to be torn neatly along the perforations; even a tiny missing piece was unacceptable. After waking up, the bed had to be made so flat that there wasn’t a single crease, and all four corners had to be perfectly aligned.

Liu Shuhan was used to being sloppy at home. She would throw things wherever after using them and then look for them when she needed them again. Her small rented apartment was a mess, but she could still fall asleep without a problem. So, in some ways, it was quite a miracle that Liu Shuhan could become friends with Cheng Qiuyi without being beaten to death by her.

Cheng Qiuyi’s job seemed to have no regular hours. When she was free, she could spend the whole day lounging on the sofa with Liu Shuhan watching SpongeBob SquarePants. When she was busy, she wouldn’t show up until late at night. Liu Shuhan worried that she was overworking herself and reminded her a few times, but although she verbally agreed, she continued to do as she pleased, and Liu Shuhan couldn’t say much more.

This day, Cheng Qiuyi was free again all day. She watched cartoons with Liu Shuhan all morning, and around lunchtime, she applied medicine for Liu Shuhan.

Some of Liu Shuhan’s injuries were bruises on her back from the impact, and they needed to be massaged with medicated wine prescribed by the doctor. This task naturally fell to Cheng Qiuyi.

One would think that having such a beautiful woman attending to her would make Liu Shuhan jump for joy, but every day when it was time for Liu Shuhan’s massage and medication, she felt uneasy.

Cheng Qiuyi was not an ordinary beauty. Other girls had soft, boneless hands, and while Cheng Qiuyi’s hands were quite soft, her strength was truly immense. Every time she pressed on Liu Shuhan’s back, Liu Shuhan would howl like a pig being slaughtered. The neighbors had complained several times!

“Ah… be gentle… it hurts…”

“It hurts… Qiuyi… gently… I can’t take it anymore…”

Cheng Qiuyi kept massaging, with countless expletives running through her mind.

It’s one thing that it hurts, but could you please not sound so ambiguous!?
