It seemed too passive to just wait for an opportunity.
I decided to take the initiative and create some "little surprises" for her.
Hehe.
That day, while Wang Jie was out of the house, I sneaked into the living room in front of the router.
My fingers danced over the keyboard, quickly logging into the backend to change the WiFi password.
What should the new password be?
How about "WangHaoShiXiaoLongXia"? (Wang Jie loves crayfish.)
It’s simple, easy to remember, and carries a hint of mockery.
Then, I pulled out my carefully prepared "magic tool."
A showerhead that claims to save 90% of water.
The online reviews said that using it makes the water flow as fine as a spray gun.
I slipped into the bathroom and swapped it out in no time.
What about the old one?
I’ll just stash it in my room to prevent her from switching it back.
Finally, I took a look at the air conditioning remote in the living room.
Hmm, it looked a bit out of place.
I casually slipped it into my pocket and returned to my room.
Perfect.
With everything set up, I happily went back to playing games.
In the evening, Wang Jie came back.
Before long, I heard her tinkering with the router in the living room.
Then came her impatient muttering.
"Damn it, why can't I connect?"
"The password is wrong? No way!"
I stifled a laugh.
Next, I heard water running from the bathroom.
And then Wang Jie’s furious shout.
"What the hell! This water smells just like pee!"
"Is it broken?! It was fine yesterday!"
I couldn't help but laugh out loud.
She fumbled around for a long time.
I guessed she was trying to find the remote control to turn on the air conditioning and cool down.
Of course, she couldn't find it.
"Where's the remote?! Who the hell took the remote?!"
She finally couldn't hold back anymore and started banging on my door.
"Lin Xi! Is this your doing?"
"Did you change the WiFi password? Did you swap out the showerhead? Did you hide the remote?"
I slowly opened the door.
"What are you talking about? I don't understand."
"I'm connected to the WiFi just fine. Maybe your phone is broken?"
"The showerhead? I didn't notice; it might just be old."
"The remote? I haven't seen it; maybe you should look again?"
Three denials, accompanied by an innocent face.
Wang Jie pointed at me, trembling with anger.
"You... you..."
After stammering "you" for a while, she couldn't get a single word out.
After all, she had no evidence.
I slammed the door shut.
Leaving her outside in a fit of impotent rage.
The sound of banging on the door, the curses, and her attempts to brute-force the WiFi password (which probably wouldn't work) became the perfect background music for my gaming session.
It felt great.

The physical and facility attacks yielded no results.
Wang Jie has pulled another stunt.
This girl is racing down the path of self-destruction, and there's no stopping her.
One day, while I was at work, slacking off, my phone rang.
An unfamiliar number.
"Hello, is this Lin Xi?"
"This is from XX Delivery. The spicy hotpot you ordered has arrived. Please open the door."
What???
I didn't order any takeout.
"Are you sure? I didn't place an order."
"That's right. The address is XX Community, Building X, Room X0X. This is the phone number, and the recipient is Lin Xi."
"Please hurry up; I have another delivery coming."
I was fuming.
It must be that scoundrel Wang Jie!
"I'm sorry, but I didn't order anything. Please return it."
I hung up the phone, my anger boiling over.
But it wasn't over yet.
In the afternoon, I received another call.
"Hello, Ms. Lin Xi? You have a cash-on-delivery package for 99 yuan. Please prepare some cash."
I took a deep breath.
"Refuse delivery, thank you."
When I got home that evening, I just wanted to have a moment of peace.
Suddenly, deafening music blared from next door.
It was that obnoxious DJ again!
Accompanied by Wang Jie’s wailing voice.
The doors and windows were shaking.
I could no longer tolerate it and went over to knock on the door.
The music stopped.
Wang Jie opened the door, looking dazed as if she had just woken up.
"What’s wrong?"
"Could you turn down the volume a bit? It’s late."
"Huh? Is it too loud? I didn’t notice."
She pretended to be clueless.
"Was it you who ordered all those takeout and deliveries today?"
I decided to confront her directly.
Her eyes flickered for a moment before she quickly denied it.
"What takeout and deliveries? I don’t know anything about that."
"Have you offended someone?"
Her acting skills are getting worse.
I looked at her coldly.
"Wang Jie, I warn you, don't play these lowly tricks."
"If there's a next time, I'll call the police directly."
She seemed momentarily intimidated by my gaze.
Suddenly, she switched to a pitiful expression.
"Oh, come on, it's nothing. It's just a misunderstanding."
"I'm just under a lot of pressure with my upcoming graduate exams and wanted to relax a bit."
"Please be more understanding and considerate."
"And don't keep making noise that disrupts my studying."
What? Graduate exams?
I can't believe you.
And now you're trying to turn this around on me?
Fine, just wait.
I turned and walked away.
