Gorgeous Female Tenants

Chapter 185 Best Male Friend

Xu Xiangbei had no choice but to agree to Ouyang Jiahui, though he still couldn’t resist mocking her: "It’s indeed not very safe for a young lady to stay in a hotel, so come stay at my place for a while. You’re my niece, why would you pay rent at your uncle’s place? Not a single penny."

Same age as me, yet calls me his niece, daring to take advantage of me, Ouyang Jiahui glared at Xu Xiangbei.

She’s not one to take any verbal loss: "I call Sister Gu my sister, yet you call me your niece, aren’t you making both Sister Gu and me a generation younger than you?"

With this said, Gu Xiangyi’s expression became sharp as well, staring at Xu Xiangbei.

They quickly formed an alliance, and Xu Xiangbei, unable to handle two fronts, immediately surrendered: "Just joking, just joking."

After a full meal, Ouyang Jiahui bid farewell to her grandpa and uncle, and followed Xu Xiangbei back to Spring Villa, while Gu Xiangyi had work at her company and took a taxi there.

Gu Xinyan was standing in the living room practicing martial arts. Now she could stand more comfortably, her waist straighter; even standing for half an hour, her legs wouldn’t hurt.

Gu Xinyan and Ouyang Jiahui encountered each other face to face, both looking at each other in surprise. Gu Xinyan was startled by the explosive Pomelo Head, while Ouyang Jiahui was attracted by Gu Xinyan’s extraordinary air.

Ouyang Jiahui, a renowned fashion magazine editor-in-chief, has long dealt with the fashion industry and seen plenty of beautiful women, mostly covered in makeup. It’s rare to see a girl as beautiful as this even without makeup.

She looked at the wheelchair beside Gu Xinyan: "You must be Gu Xinyan, you do resemble Sister Gu a bit, quite pretty."

Hearing the compliment, a flush spread over Gu Xinyan’s fair face: "Who are you, do you know my sister?"

"Of course I know, but I knew Xu Xiangbei first. You’re so pretty, no wonder Dr. Xu is so attentive to you and even treats your illness. He’s really a good person."

Feeling that Ouyang Jiahui’s words had a hidden meaning, Gu Xinyan found it particularly jarring and lost interest in practicing martial arts: "Do you have something to do here?"

Ouyang Jiahui nonchalantly walked up to the third floor: "Forgot to tell you, I’m staying here for a few days. I’m on the third floor, same as Dr. Xu. I need to tidy the room, go ahead and continue playing. Can you help me with something? Oh, sorry, I forgot you’re a cripple."

Gu Xinyan looked in surprise as Ouyang Jiahui swaggered onto the third floor. She hated it when people called her a cripple and pouted in anger.

At this moment, Xu Xiangbei parked the car and returned to the villa.

She glared at Xu Xiangbei: "Brother Xu, why do you bring all sorts of people home? Are you planning to cohabit with that Pomelo Head?"

Seeing Gu Xinyan pouting angrily, Xu Xiangbei chuckled shamelessly: "Jealous because you saw me bring a woman home? Hehe, rest assured, we’re not even friends."

Gu Xinyan replied with mild annoyance: "I’m not jealous. I just think that woman is indecent. We, the sisters, rented this villa from you, and we are decent girls. Please don’t do anything that harms character or ruins morality, be a bit more considerate of public ethics."

Xu Xiangbei bitterly smiled: "It was your sister who insisted she stays with us. I’m the victim here. When have I ever done anything that harms character or ruins morality? You better be clear."

Gu Xinyan rolled her eyes at Xu Xiangbei and quickly wheeled back to her room: "Change if you do, encourage yourself if not."

Xu Xiangbei went up to the third floor, where Ouyang Jiahui was lying on the sofa talking on the phone with an ambiguous expression and teasing words: "Miss me, just come over. I’m at Spring Villa. Hurry up, I’m bored to death here without you."

Xu Xiangbei thought Ouyang Jiahui was going to bring her boyfriend over and quickly reminded: "I need to say up front, if you’re bringing your boyfriend, please don’t disturb the Gu Family Sisters on the second floor, and especially don’t disturb me. Respect our privacy."

Ouyang Jiahui, chewing gum and flipping through her phone absentmindedly: "Don’t worry, my boyfriend just ran off with another woman. I won’t be bringing a boyfriend, won’t dirty your sacred Eden."

Xu Xiangbei felt certain the person would be male: "Then who were you just on the phone with?"

"A male bestie."

Xu Xiangbei was a bit flustered, finding it hard to accept women having male besties. He asked dazedly: "Is having male besties in vogue now?"

"Why not? Modern society advocates gender equality. Women can’t have male besties?"

Xu Xiangbei awkwardly smiled: "Of course, they can, but it’s a bit hard for me to accept."

"Dr. Xu, can you clean my room, please? It’s piled with messy clothes, throw them out, they’re so tacky."

Xu Xiangbei was displeased: "Those are my usual clothes, if you throw them out, what will I wear? Just keep them in the closet, they don’t take up much space."

Ouyang Jiahui stated earnestly: "Those rags can’t stay in my room. I need to have friends bring stuff over later, there’s not enough space. If you don’t remove these clothes, what if I accidentally drop a cigarette on them, cause a fire or something, I won’t be responsible."

Hearing that Ouyang Jiahui might drop cigarette butts on his clothes, he was so frightened that he moved all the clothes he’d left in the next room back to his bedroom.

Xu Xiangbei panted from the effort, realizing how many old clothes he had only when packing them away, absolutely overflowing.

He heard a familiar voice, dainty yet somewhat husky.

Jack, wearing a bright red flared-sleeve dress, affectionately snuggled up to Ouyang Jiahui: "Hi, my little Jiahui, you’re staying here? This place is huge, I love it. Whose villa is this?"

"Jack, say hello to our Dr. Xu. This is his villa."

As the homeowner, Xu Xiangbei politely greeted Jack.

Upon seeing Xu Xiangbei, Jack beamed excitedly, his eyes fixed on Xu Xiangbei’s chest: "So it’s you, the rough man. Enemies are bound to meet. Can’t believe we’re seeing each other again."

Xu Xiangbei bitterly smiled, unable to handle Jack’s coy voice.

Jack wiggled his hips closer to Xu Xiangbei, gently placing his hand on his shoulder, fingers painted red and joints big, sliding across his chest, speaking coyly: "Dr. Xu, you have such a strong body. Do you usually like working out?"

Xu Xiangbei got goosebumps all over from the rough stroke of his fingers and quickly fled: "You guys have fun, I have some errands to run."

Jack giggled coquettishly: "Dr. Xu, I like working out too. Let’s exchange tips sometime."
