Chapter 1913: Chapter 1908: Apologizing Proactively
Hearing that lazy drawl, Hu Xiaobei opened his eyes and saw her, face full of shyness, clutching the hem of her clothes, fidgeting as she stared at her own toes.
Right now, Song Yaling was wearing a light purple dress.
The slightly loose dress hid her seductive curves, but somehow added a touch of pure innocence.
So even Hu Xiaobei, after the initial shock, couldn’t help wanting to look a few more times.
"What are you staring at!"
Seeing Hu Xiaobei dumbly staring at her, the slightly recovered Song Yaling bit her soft lips.
A trace of inextricable shyness flashed in her eyes.
Smiling honestly, Hu Xiaobei spoke cheerfully, "Nothing, just think you look really, really pretty."
"All you know how to do is say these useless things, you..."
Before she finished, she suddenly let out a little scream.
"You... you shameless bastard, how can you just come out wrapped in a bath towel!"
Feeling her tension and embarrassment, Hu Xiaobei chuckled softly and said, a bit helpless, "It’s not like I wanted to, but I really don’t have any clothes to wear right now. My old clothes are all dirty. I can’t exactly wear yours, can I?"
Hearing his explanation, she rolled her eyes hard at him and stomped her little foot. "You still can’t come out like this! You could’ve asked me!"
"If I ask, will you definitely have something?"
"Of course!"
As she spoke, she quickly opened a wardrobe on one side and took out a brand-new set of men’s clothes.
Looking carefully at the new outfit, Hu Xiaobei was a bit speechless. "Sister Song, you... why do you have men’s clothes in your closet?"
Seeing the faint hint of jealousy on his face, her heart felt sweet...
Soon she smiled with her eyes narrowed and explained to him, "Isn’t it because of you, you little bastard! I was out shopping before and thought this would really suit you, so I bought it. I was planning to take it to you, but then you just disappeared. I had no choice but to hang it here first."
"So that’s how it is! Well, now that I’m back, it’s mine again."
As he spoke, Hu Xiaobei quickly started putting it on right in front of Song Yaling.
Seeing that he had no intention of letting her avoid the scene, Song Yaling shyly turned around.
Very soon, she heard Hu Xiaobei speak softly, "Sister Song, I’m done changing over here. You can turn around now."
She turned around quickly and saw that he really had finished changing.
"So handsome!"
She couldn’t help letting out a soft sigh of praise...
Although she’d already guessed it would look good, once he was fully dressed, she still couldn’t help being amazed.
"Well? Doesn’t it look especially good? I’m like the ultimate clothes hanger!"
Originally stunned, she gave him a speechless look and muttered in a low voice, "Bastard! What, will you die if you don’t brag?"
"I’m not bragging, I’m telling the truth!"
"Only a ghost would believe you!"
Rolling her eyes at him again, she quickly walked out of the room.
Hu Xiaobei laughed heartily and hurried after her.
After catching up, just as Hu Xiaobei was about to do something, they heard knocking coming from downstairs.
"Sister Song, are you expecting someone?"
"I don’t think so. I don’t really know many people around here!"
As Song Yaling spoke, her phone started ringing.
She glanced at the number and quickly picked up.
After a moment, she put the phone down and said softly, "It’s from the property management. They said they’re coming to properly apologize."
Thinking of what had happened to her before, Hu Xiaobei let out a cold sneer. "Since they’re already here, let’s go take a look. I hope they show some sincerity; otherwise, I’ll make sure they understand what it means to regret."
Feeling that chill, Song Yaling’s heart warmed...
She knew that the reason he was this angry now was all because of her...
Just like that, the two of them walked downstairs one after the other...
...
"Master Xiaobei, last time really was our mistake at work. From now on, we’ll absolutely prevent anything like that from happening again."
"Exactly, Master Xiaobei, we guarantee that nothing like that will ever happen again."
In the lobby, two men in sharp suits spoke up quickly.
The two of them were the managers responsible for this area. Earlier, they had heard what happened from those people.
It had left them drenched in cold sweat...
This complex’s main selling point was security, and yet there had been a break-in.
It was just ridiculous...
So they knew they had to fix the problem as fast as possible. Otherwise, once the incident blew up, they’d be completely finished.
Hu Xiaobei glanced at them and said flatly, "This is the first time and also the last. If there’s a next time, I guarantee you won’t be able to handle the consequences. Understand?"
"Yes, yes, yes, we understand! We absolutely understand!"
They nodded vigorously...
They knew they had to obtain Hu Xiaobei’s forgiveness right now.
Going up against him would only mean you were tired of living.
"In that case, you can leave now."
"Alright!"
They agreed and quickly left!
Of course, all the supplements and gifts they’d brought were left behind.
Hu Xiaobei knew this was what they should do, so he didn’t say anything...
...
"So that’s Master Xiaobei, huh. The aura on him is really terrifying!"
"Exactly, exactly!"
They muttered in utter fear.
They’d already known beforehand that Hu Xiaobei was scary, but after meeting him in person, they realized he was even more terrifying than they’d imagined.
Exchanging a slightly shaken look, they turned to the people in charge of security and said, "Set up a security post here later. Make sure there’s someone on duty twenty-four hours a day, understood?"
"Yes! Understood!"
"You’d better understand! If anything like this happens again, I’ll skin you alive!"
"Yes!"
...
"Xiaobei, their expressions just now were really something!"
After they left, Song Yaling looked at Hu Xiaobei and spoke lazily.
She honestly thought their faces just now were pretty funny.
Before, she’d seen these two chew other people out; they were ridiculously domineering.
And now, in front of Hu Xiaobei, they’d turned into obedient little kittens.
Giving her a glance, Hu Xiaobei said coldly, "That’s because they were in the wrong. And that’s with you not having really suffered. If you had, I’d make sure they had nowhere to cry."
"I know you’re amazing, I..."
Before she could finish, there was another knock at the door.
She looked quite surprised.
"Who could it be? Did those people come back to apologize again?"
Thinking this, she walked over with some doubt and reached out to open the door.
