The moment the faucet spurted out water, Wang Gang subconsciously covered his mouth with his hands, but he was still drenched.

Li Xiaoyue was standing next to Wang Gang, so she was naturally not spared. She screamed and her hair and clothes were all wet.

"Did you turn off the main valve?" Wang Gang asked Li Xiaoyue, covering the water column.

"Ah, I clearly turned it off! Did I turn it off by mistake?" Li Xiaoyue didn't hesitate and immediately ran out to check the water valve.

Half a minute later, Wang Gang felt the water column gradually getting smaller.

"Shen Lei, I'm sorry, I turned off the wrong water valve." Li Xiaoyue walked in embarrassedly, her whole body still dripping with water.

The house that Li Xiaoyue rented had been renovated. Each room had an independent electricity meter and water valve, which were arranged in a mess. She had just turned off the water valve in other rooms.

Wang Gang shook his hands and said with a smile: "It's okay, it's just a small matter. I have a problem too. I should have checked it before removing the faucet."

After that, Wang Gang quickly reinstalled the faucet and said, "Your faucet was not installed properly before, and it was a little misaligned. I fixed it again, and it shouldn't leak anymore."

Li Xiaoyue handed Wang Gang a towel and said apologetically: "Stop it, wipe your body first."

Wang Gang picked up the towel and wiped his hair.

"You should wipe it off too, don't catch a cold."

Wang Gang turned sideways and let Li Xiaoyue go into the bathroom to get her towel.

Li Xiaoyue shivered all over and really felt cold.

At this time, Na Jun's excited voice came from the door.

"What are you doing?"

Wang Gang and Li Xiaoyue turned around at the same time and saw Na Jun standing at the door angrily.

"Najun, don't get me wrong. I was helping Li Xiaoyue fix the faucet and something unexpected happened." Wang Gang explained.

Na Jun glanced at his girlfriend's wet body and his expression looked slightly better.

"Xiaoyue, didn't I tell you to wait for me to come and fix the faucet?" Na Jun walked in dissatisfied, then took out a large towel from the bathroom and wrapped it around his girlfriend.

"You said how long have you been here for repair?" Li Xiaoyue rolled her eyes at Na Jun.

Wang Gang felt it would be awkward to stay any longer, so he said, "Na Jun, since you are here, I'll leave this place to you. I'll go back first."

"Shen Lei, I'm so sorry for getting your clothes wet." Li Xiaoyue apologized.

"It's okay, you should pack up quickly and don't catch a cold." Wang Gang smiled and said goodbye to Na Jun.

Na Jun had a stern face the whole time, seeming a little dissatisfied.

"I'll take you there." Li Xiaoyue wanted to see Wang Gang out, but was stopped by Na Jun.

"Change your wet clothes first, I'll take Shen Lei out." Na Jun said with a serious face.

Li Xiaoyue looked at her clothes that were still dripping with water and felt it was inappropriate to see the guest off.

Na Jun took Wang Gang out and closed the door.

"Shen Lei, thank you today. But Li Xiaoyue lives alone after all. If a man like you goes to her house, people will easily gossip about you." Na Jun walked Wang Gang to the car and then spoke.

Wang Gang took off his wet coat and said, "Okay, I'll pay attention next time."

Na Jun turned back with a dark face, and Wang Gang curled his lips but didn't care too much.

After returning to Li Xiaoyue's residence, Na Jun still looked unhappy.

"Li Xiaoyue, don't bring other men home in the future." Na Jun came up and accused Li Xiaoyue. "Shen Lei is not someone else, he is our friend and your relative." Li Xiaoyue frowned, not liking Na Jun's attitude.

Na Jun said seriously: "Shen Lei is also a man, there should still be a sense of boundaries between men and women."

Li Xiaoyue threw the towel away and said angrily: "Na Jun, what do you mean? What do you think I want to do by bringing Shen Lei home!"

Seeing that his girlfriend was really angry, Na Jun couldn't keep a cold face anymore.

"Xiao Yue, of course I believe you, but Shen Lei is a man after all. What if he has bad intentions towards you?" Na Jun said anxiously.

Li Xiaoyue was speechless and said, "Na Jun, can you please stop thinking of me as such a dirty person? Shen Lei is a good person. With our relationship, how could he possibly have any thoughts about me?"

Na Jun frowned and said: "You are not a man, so you don't understand!"

Li Xiaoyue said angrily: "I think you are the one who is filthy, and everyone else is a bad person. Shen Lei and I stayed in the room with the door open, what can we do!"

"Xiaoyue, don't be angry, I'm just worried about your safety!" Na Jun coaxed: "I'm really worried about you living outside alone."

"I've lived alone for so many years, why do you worry about me?" Li Xiaoyue said with a straight face.

"Okay, okay, I was wrong. Don't be angry. Let me help you clean up!"

Na Jun took the initiative to admit his mistake, but Li Xiaoyue did not intend to let him go.

"Tell me honestly, do you not believe Shen Lei or do you not believe me?" Li Xiaoyue asked.

"How could I not believe you?" Na Jun wanted to go forward and hug his girlfriend, but Li Xiaoyue broke free.

"That's enough, Najun, let's break up!"

That Jun's face suddenly froze.

"Xiaoyue, didn't I apologize? Why did we break up?"

Li Xiaoyue said seriously: "Najun, I have carefully considered our relationship. I think we are not suitable for each other. Breaking up may be good for both of us."

Na Jun thought Li Xiaoyue was still upset, so he coaxed her softly, "Xiaoyue, I know I was wrong. I swear, I will never doubt you again. Whatever you say is what I will do, okay?"

Li Xiaoyue stared at Na Jun's eyes and said, "If I asked you to resign and find an easier job, would you listen to me?"

"Why are you talking about work again?" Na Jun got angry when he heard the word work.

"You work overtime all day long and treat the company like your own. I can't rely on you for anything." Li Xiaoyue said aggrievedly:
"I want a boyfriend, not a money-making machine."

Na Jun lowered his head and said, "Xiao Yue, I promise you that I will try to spend more time with you in the future, okay?"

"When will the future be? Tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, next year, or the year after next." Li Xiaoyue said angrily, "We have been dragging this out for three years. We got together and then broke up, and then got together again. I am tired and don't want to drag it on like this any longer."

Na Jun said angrily: "Why don't you understand? I work so hard and work overtime day and night, all for our future."

Li Xiaoyue snorted coldly: "I never asked you to stand out, I never asked you to make a lot of money to buy a big house, don't push the responsibility onto me anymore, all this is your choice, not mine!"

Na Jun said angrily: "You make it sound easy. If I don't work hard and make money, how can I survive in Beijing? Like Shen Lei, he didn't even have a house when he was 30 years old, and his wife despised him and divorced him."

"I think Shen Lei is pretty good. He lives happily even without a house." Li Xiaoyue said, "On the contrary, you bought a house but you have to bear the mortgage. I don't think you live happily. You have become a slave to the house."

Na Jun was speechless and said, "Why don't you understand that outsiders like us have to work hard and struggle to survive in Beijing.

You feel you are living a carefree life now because you are young. When you are over 35 and your market competitiveness decreases, I wonder if you can still live a carefree life?"

Li Xiaoyue was completely disappointed with Na Jun and pointed at the door and shouted: "Get out, I don't want to argue with you anymore."

Na Jun got angry and lost his mind. He didn't want to continue arguing with Li Xiaoyue, so he slammed the door and left. (End of this chapter)
