Liu Shishi: You're Truly a Timely Rain

"The water pipe is blocked, no water is coming out?"

"Okay, I got it. I'll send you the property management's number right away."

"Why don't I come over and take a look first? If it doesn't work, you can call property management then?"

"Mm."

After hanging up, Zhang Yang casually grabbed a towel to wipe off the sweat, changed into a tight-fitting tank top, and then grabbed his keys to go find Nazha.

Women are generally more lustful than men, but they appear reserved on the surface. Men shouldn't be shy when it's time to show off their physique.

A woman looking at a man's eight-pack abs, V-lines, and inverted triangle is no different than a man seeing Da Mimi on a deserted island.

"Ding-dong."

Zhang Yang arrived at the door of 802 and rang the doorbell, shouting, "Nazha, it's me."

The door opened quickly, revealing Nazha, who was bare-faced but stunningly beautiful, wearing a modest nightgown.

"Senior Brother?!"

Just as Nazha was about to greet him warmly, her heart skipped a beat when she saw Zhang Yang's upper body, encased in the tank top.

Her gaze instinctively drifted to Zhang Yang's faintly visible, well-defined pectoral muscles, feeling her ears burn terribly, and she subconsciously swallowed.

The sound of her swallowing was loud, and her face flushed all the way to her neck.

Zhang Yang, as if unaware of her embarrassment, smiled and said, "I was just working out, so I didn't catch your call. Sorry."

Nazha guiltily withdrew her gaze and said faintly, "It's okay."

She was a little annoyed at first for not being able to get through, but seeing his physique now made it worthwhile.

"You said the water pipe is blocked, what exactly is the situation?" Zhang Yang got straight to the point without wasting words.

Nazha led Zhang Yang to the bathroom and said, "I wanted to take a shower, but no water is coming out."

"My agent told me the water and electricity bills are paid on time, so I thought maybe the water pipe was broken."

Listening to Nazha, Zhang Yang turned the showerhead switch and found that indeed, no water came out.

He then walked over to the adjacent sink, turned the faucet, and similarly, no water came out.

"I think it's quite seriously blocked," Nazha said, standing at the doorway with her arms crossed.

Her gaze kept drifting unconsciously to the muscles in Zhang Yang's arms and his abs.

Then, as if afraid of being discovered by Zhang Yang, she'd quickly look away, like a thief with a guilty conscience.

Zhang Yang didn't reply. Instead, he walked out of the bathroom and into the kitchen, turning a switch there. He found that no water came out there either.

"Just as I thought."

Zhang Yang smiled inwardly, turned, and walked directly to the door. Under Nazha's gaze, he opened the pipe access panel and reached in to turn the water valve switch.

"Gurgle gurgle!"

A few breaths later, a sound of running water could be heard from the bathroom inside.

"The water's on!" Nazha exclaimed in surprise.

"Mm." Zhang Yang walked up to Nazha, his eyes playful. "The main valve wasn't open. This is indeed quite serious. Even if you dismantled all the pipes inside, no water would come."

Nazha blushed again: "..."

The first time was out of embarrassment, the second time was out of shame.

She could clearly hear the teasing in Zhang Yang's words.

"Junior Sister, the matter is resolved. I'll head back and take a shower now."

Zhang Yang stopped there and left decisively.

In fact, he had ways to continue teasing Nazha, such as deliberately not bringing his keys and letting property management open the door.

Before that, he could have asked Nazha to let him stay for a while. A man and a woman alone in a room could create an atmosphere.

But he didn't do that.

There would be plenty of time in the future!

"Nazha asking me for help confirms a guess of mine."

Zhang Yang lay in the bathtub, thinking seriously.

Nazha was from the entertainment industry. Helping her solve a problem was also an opportunity to deepen their relationship. However, the Entertainment Industry Opportunity Manual didn't show it.

This meant either the manual predicted he would solve this problem, or Nazha wouldn't have encountered an unsolvable problem in the first place.

He replayed the events. He felt that if he hadn't gotten the Entertainment Industry Opportunity Manual today, he probably would have gone back to his dorm to sleep, and then he wouldn't have met Nazha at the apartment, let alone exchanged contact information and let her ask him for help when she had difficulties.

In the original timeline, Nazha might not have encountered this trouble.

Meanwhile, Nazha was messaging her agent while taking a bath, recounting the evening's events.

The other side quickly sent a message: "There's a notice from property management on your front door, reminding you to remember to open the main valve before using water."

Nazha: "..."

After she got home and watched Zhang Yang enter 801, she didn't pay any attention to the door of 802.

She quickly finished her shower, then ran to the door and tore off the notice.

If Zhang Yang saw it, she'd be utterly humiliated.

Although their interaction today was brief, Zhang Yang left a deep impression on her.

However, this impression quickly became a memory Nazha would never forget.

"No, don't!"

The next morning, Nazha sat up with a gasp.

Looking at her surroundings, she felt like she was going crazy.

Someone she had just met appeared in her dream.

Although there was no substantial plot, it might have been due to her inexperience, but it was still terrifying.

On the other side of the wall, Zhang Yang had slept very well all night.

He got up, washed, dressed neatly, found an old pan-fried bun shop for breakfast, and then took a car to the company entrance.

Putting on a mask, he went to a nearby convenience store and, with the clerk's guidance, bought several brands and sizes of sanitary pads.

Liu Shishi only needed daily use pads between 240mm and 350mm with a cotton surface. He wouldn't be foolish enough to buy only those, as it would seem too coincidental and deliberate.

The cashier seemed unfazed by a man buying sanitary pads, and completed Zhang Yang's transaction quickly and efficiently, her expression unchanged.

Zhang Yang breathed a sigh of relief and returned to the company with the "props," entering his lounge to silently wait for the time to come.

Meanwhile, Liu Shishi returned to the company in her chauffeured car and immediately went to Cai Yinong's office.

After chatting about random things for a long time, Cai Yinong finally got to the point: "Shishi, you don't have any objections to partnering with a newcomer, right?"

Liu Shishi smiled faintly: "Everyone starts as a newcomer. I don't have any objections."

Given Cai Yinong's autocratic personality, her objections would be useless anyway, and besides, she genuinely didn't care about such matters.

"Mm." Cai Yinong was very satisfied with Liu Shishi's attitude. This was actually a test of her control over her artists.

"Actually, you don't necessarily have to work with a newcomer," Cai Yinong said. "Persuade Old Hu to play the male lead."

Liu Shishi knew this was Cai Yinong's true intention, still unwilling to give up on having Hu Ge play the male lead.

Just as she was about to politely refuse, she suddenly felt a heaviness in her lower abdomen and a rush of warmth.

Thinking about the date, she inwardly thought, "This is bad," and immediately got up, saying, "Sister K, I understand. I'll try to persuade him again. I have something to attend to and need to go back to my lounge."

Having gotten the answer she wanted, Cai Yinong naturally had no objections.

Liu Shishi hurried back to her lounge and went directly to the restroom. She reached out and opened the storage box next to it, only to find it empty.

"They're all used up!" Liu Shishi frowned subconsciously and was about to call her personal assistant to buy more.

But as soon as she opened her mouth, she remembered she had given them the day off.

"This is terrible!"

Liu Shishi realized she had to bear the discomfort and do it herself.

She couldn't just stop someone randomly and ask them to buy it for her.

Putting in her contact lenses, mask, and baseball cap, she walked out of her private lounge and saw someone approaching from the opposite direction.

It was someone she knew, Zhang Yang!

"Sister Shishi!"

Zhang Yang's face showed surprise when he saw Liu Shishi.

He then flusteredly tried to hide the transparent bag in his hand behind his back.

But his action instead drew Liu Shishi's attention, and she looked closely.

Seeing the contents of the bag, Liu Shishi's eyes immediately became contemplative.

This was truly a godsend, Zhang Yang was her timely savior.

"Ayang, why did you buy these things?"
