Chapter 667: New Neighbor!

“What’s wrong?” Cao Zhuzhu ate the last bun and got out of the car. She saw Pei Song looking at the car next to him.

Pei Song took the oily plastic bag from her hand. At the same time, he retracted his gaze and smiled. “Nothing. I just saw something interesting.”

The two of them entered the elevator. There were a total of 58 floors. Pei Song pressed the 56th floor.

Halfway up the elevator, Cao Zhuzhu had almost digested the last bun. She savoured the fragrance of the meat in her mouth. “I want to have hotpot for lunch.”

The last time they had hot pot was with Su Ji. Before they could eat, Sonya’s sudden appearance stopped them.

She felt a little regretful.

Pei Song glanced at her and smiled as he took out his phone. “At home or out?” Cao Zhuzhu was very particular about her words. “In my rented apartment.”

Pei Song was amused. He opened the delivery app on his phone. “Alright, I’ll order the ingredients.”

Ding! The elevator reached the 56th floor. The two of them walked out of the elevator, and the elevator door closed. They went straight upstairs.

There were only two floors above them, which meant that there were only two units above them.

The person living on the top floor was a celebrity who was out filming all year round.

As for the person on the second floor, he had never stayed here after buying the property here.

“Don’t you need to go to the Huichun Hall?” Cao Zhuzhu unlocked the door with her fingerprint. Before she opened the door, she stopped in her tracks and turned around to look at Pei Song.

Pei Song was tall and stood right behind her. He did not expect her to suddenly stop. His strong jawline was slightly retracted. “I’m the boss. The boss doesn’t have to go every day.”

Cao Zhuzhu: “…”

She didn’t know how frequently he went to work, but he hadn’t been for 3 days.

He spent every day in the house that she paid 3,000 yuan a month.

After the two of them returned home, Cao Zhuzhu put down her things and went into the house to wash her hands. Pei Song leaned against the low cabinet at the entrance, one hand in his pocket, the other hand on his phone choosing ingredients.

He now knew exactly what she liked to eat. His slender fingers quickly pressed on the items.

Cao Zhuzhu returned to her room after washing her hands and told him that someone seemed to have moved in upstairs.

Pei Song asked her how she Imew.

Cao Zhuzhu said, “I heard the sound of an electric drill coming from upstairs.”

The soundproofing of the upper and lower floors of the property was very good. Even if it was renovated, there was very little sound. Only the bathroom was slightly worse.

Pei Song placed the order on his phone and crossed his arms as he looked at her.

A moment later, he suggested, “I’ll take you upstairs to meet the neighbors?”

“You know them?” Cao Zhuzhu went back to her room and changed into her home clothes. Her voice came from the open door of the room.

Pei Song’s voice carried a smile. “You know them too.”

Cao Zhuzhu leaned back from the door and looked at him with three question marks above her head.

Then, Pei Song’s phone rang. It was a confirmation call for the delivery. The female staff’s voice was sweet.

Pei Song listened to her check the list of ingredients and said, “two sets of all the ingredients.”

“Em…all of them?”

Pei Song said yes and changed the delivery address to the 57th floor.

After hanging up, he brought Cao Zhuzhu upstairs.

Cao Zhuzhu was a little confused. For a moment, she couldn’t think of anyone.

She said that she should go back to her room and change. She was wearing pajamas at the moment, which was too casual.

Pei Song said that there was no need. They could be neighbors for a while, so there was no need to be formal.

Just like that, Cao Zhuzhu was brought into the elevator by him in confusion.

A few seconds later, the elevator reached the top floor.

Pei Song pressed the neighbor’s doorbell. A maid in her forties opened the door.

The maid obviously knew him. She only paused for a moment before kindly inviting them in.

There were two pairs of shoes at the entrance.

A pair of men’s leather shoes were neatly placed. They were spotless.

There was a pair of white sneakers next to him, but judging from the size, they should belong to a girl. They were much smaller than the men’s leather shoes next to him. One of them was upside down, and the shoelaces were loose. Judging from the arrangement of the two pairs of shoes, the neighbors should be two people with completely different personalities.

Cao Zhuzhu thought about it.

Either a couple or a pair of father and daughter.

The housekeeper was called Aunt Gong. “Sir and Miss are in the inner room.

They’ll come out in a while.”

Pei Song told her to carry on.

Aunt Gong retreated.

There were indeed a few workers working in the washroom downstairs, and the sound of electric drills was intermittent.

Cao Zhuzhu looked around the apartment. It was newly renovated, and it looked like no one had lived here before.

Pei Song rarely lived in the house downstairs in the past, but his room did not look as new as this one.

The decoration was not as nice as this one.

The combination of gray and white was minimalist and modern. The materials used looked high-quality.

There was a wall in the living room with a huge painting that was almost as tall as the wall.

It was in a very conspicuous position, making it impossible for one not to notice it.

The maids had cleaned the house very well. The protective film on the painting was the only thing that was left intact. They must have been specially instructed by the master.

The layers of protective film were translucent, but because there were many layers and they bulged out loosely, it was not easy to see the painting.

Cao Zhuzhu found that her hand was subconsciously placed on the painting. She moved the film, and the painting gradually appeared in front of her.

She saw it. It was a portrait of a girl, but because it was too big and too high, it was not easy to recognize the girl’s face. What she could confirm was that every facial feature of this girl was extremely exquisite and beautiful. “When did you get here?” A man’s deep voice came from the corridor.

He was talking to Pei Song. Cao Zhuzhu looked over.

“I just arrived.” Pei Song walked towards the corridor and said, “not bad, kid.

You’re living together?”

“I learn from you,” the man replied jokingly.

As Pei Song approached, the man opposite her stopped in the corridor. Cao Zhuzhu couldn’t see him from her angle, but she had definitely heard this voice before.

Pei Song said, “let’s have hot pot together for lunch? I’ve ordered the ingredients. They’ll be here in a while.”

“No, she is injured. She can’t eat junk.”

“Didn’t you say that it was just a superficial injury?” Pei Song raised his eyebrows.

“A superficial injury is also an injury.”

“Don’t listen to him. I can eat hot pot.”

At this moment, another voice came out of the room and approached them.

This time, Cao Zhuzhu reacted almost instantly.

Pei Song smiled. “Look at how cooperative my sister-in-law is.”

As the footsteps approached, the girl’s figure quickly came out from the corridor.

Su Ji was not surprised to see Cao Zhuzhu and raised her chin at her with a calm expression.

It was a greeting from a big shot.

Cao Zhuzhu’s beautiful eyes widened. She knew that the girl in the painting looked familiar.

The extremely exquisite and beautiful facial features…belonged to Su Ji!
