Chapter 6-New Neighbor is a Handsome Man

Yun Muxi knitted her eyebrows and asked, puzzlement in her voice. "I did not order a meal."

The young man was embarrassed to say, "Miss Yun, we are only responsible for delivering food. The guest ordered a meal, so I have to deliver it."

Yun Muxi had no intention to make it difficult for him, so she took the food and closed the door.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, the bell rang.

"Miss Yun, here is your fruit!"

At four o'clock in the afternoon, the bell rang.

"Miss Yun, here is your afternoon tea."

At six o'clock, the bell rang.

"Miss Yun, here is your dinner!"

...

Yun Muxi was annoyed as she was bombarded by the continuous delivery. She was confused, but no one could answer. She lay on the sofa and complained, "Who did this?"

After a while, she got up and ate the dinner. Since it was delivered, she could not waste food. Besides, she liked all the foods. She was surprised at "Y", who could cater to her pleasure in food and drink as well as flowers. She wondered who "Y "was.

After dinner, she turned on the TV. She did not watch TV often. Since she had done her work, and Niannian was not around, she had nothing to do.

There was an exclusive interview on TV. The hostess asked with a smile, "I heard that only the male lead in the play is determined, but the female lead is not determined. I wonder why?"

The camera zoomed in on Director Zhao Yi, who looked refined and modest in his slim blue-black suit and white shirt. He smiled faintly and answered, "The female lead is the most important role in the play, so we will have to be selective. We're still looking for our female lead."

Then, the camera returned to the hostess. She smiled and asked again, "Gong Yu, you're the male lead. Do you have anyone in mind?"

The camera zoomed in on Gong Yu, who sat next to Zhao Yi. Gong Yu wore a black shirt and black casual pants. He was stern-faced. As the camera zoomed in on Gong Yu, Yun Muxi was absent-minded. He responded in a deep voice, "I will do my job as the male lead. It doesn't matter to me who the female lead is."

It was a pretty safe answer. Actually, the hostess intended to create a buzz. Unexpectedly, Gong Yu played down the topic.

Seeing Gong Yu again, Yun Muxi felt a little dejected. She didn’t want to watch it anymore. Thus, she turned off the TV and continued to modify the script.

...

In the next two days, she took delivery invariably and punctually. She received flowers at 10 o'clock; lunch at 12 o'clock; fruits at 14 o'clock; afternoon tea at 16 o'clock; dinner at 18 o'clock. However, the "Y" never showed up. Yun Muxi paid no attention and accepted without questioning. She lived a comfortable life these two days.

She finally completed modification based on Zhao Yi's advice. She turned off the computer and went to the supermarket. Niannian and Gu Yuxuan would come back today. She was going to cook a nice dinner for them.

When she came back from the supermarket and got out of the elevator, she saw the door of the opposite apartment was wide open as if someone was moving in. The apartment was vacant for three years after she had moved in.

Yun Muxi peeks inside the door curiously. Except for several workers, she did not see the host. She went home, washed her hands, and started preparing dinner.

She spent three hours in the kitchen. Each dish was dainty. Ever since she was a child, she cooked for herself because her parents were always too busy to take good care of her. She was a quick learner and a talented cook. She gradually had excellent cooking skills and was comparable to a restaurant chef.

When she served dinner, the bell rang. Yun Muxi looked at her watch and ran to open the door. "Coming. Don't rush me!"

As she opened the door, she saw Niannian and Gu Yuxuan standing in front of her. They smiled and gave her a bear hug. Yun Muxi ignored Gu Yuxuan and squatted to hold Niannian in her arms. She kissed the little girl's forehead happily.

Niannian had two high ponytails hanging down to her shoulders; long, fluttering eyelashes; big, bright eyes; doll-like chubby, rosy face. She was about three years old, but she was already so beautiful. Obviously, she would grow up to be a beauty.

Yun Muxi held Niannian in her arms and walked into the house. Although Gu Yuxuan didn’t get a hug, she was not unhappy but began to gossip with Yun Muxi excitedly. "Xiao Xi, Xiao Xi, do you know? You have a new neighbor."

Yun Muxi answered with a smile, "I know. When I came back from the supermarket this afternoon, I happened to see they are moving."

Gu Yuxuan continued, "Do you know that your new neighbor is a cool and handsome man?" Gu Yuxuan's wore the expression of a small child with a large Christmas present.

Yun Muxi ignored Gu Yuxuan and said tenderly to the little girl, "Niannian, did you have fun going out this time?"

Niannian blinked her big eyes and said happily, "Uh-huh, Mommy Xuanxuan took me to Disneyland. I saw many pretty princesses."

Yun Muxi smiled and spoke to Niannian, "Then go wash your hands with Mommy Xuanxuan. I have cooked a big meal for you."

Niannian nodded obediently, got up, and pulled Gu Yuxuan to the restroom. She suddenly stopped after taking two steps and said to Yun Muxi, "What Mommy Xuanxuan said is true. Our new neighbor is a handsome man. I really like that handsome uncle."

Yun Muxi burst out laughing. "Alright! Whether the opposite uncle is handsome or not, Niannian, please go wash hands with Mommy Xuanxuan. Otherwise, the food is going to get cold.”

They ran cheerfully to wash hands.

When they sat down at the dinner table, the bell rang.

Yun Muxi looked at Niannian and Gu Yuxuan with doubt and went to open the door. She was stunned as she opened the door.

Gu Yuxuan came by with Niannian and asked curiously, "Xiao Xi, is that Yichen?"
