Chapter 546

“What do you mean?” Peter asked.

Jenkins waved her hand dismissively. “It’s a trivial thing. Let’s not talk about it. Thanks anyway!”

With one hand holding the bag and the other carrying a ladder, Jenkins was about to go downstairs when Peter immediately took the ladder from her. “Let me give you a hand!”

Jenkins paused slightly. “This ladder is very heavy!”

Peter rolled up his sleeves. “Are you suggesting that I’m weaker than a woman?”

Jenkins gave a small smile and handed the ladder to Peter.

His hands obviously sank under the weight.

He was nearly overwhelmed by the ladder, but seeing Jenkins‘ half–amused look, he coughed and stubbornly said, “It’s not that heavy.”

“Heh.”

Jenkins handed him the rag, the window–cleaning equipment, and the bag, then took the ladder back from him. “Let me do it!”

Jenkins went downstairs with ease.

Peter followed her, feeling somewhat discouraged, and asked, “How does a girl like you have so much strength?”

“I didn’t have a choice. My parents died early, and I’ve been on my own since I was young. I had to move everything in the house, plus I used to do delivery work. At my busiest, I carried five orders at once. I developed my strength through that! Not like you, such a weakling…”

“I am not a weakling! How can you say that? I work out, you know!”

Peter retorted.

Jenkins snorted. “Your idea of working out is just running a couple of laps, right?”

Peter nodded. “Yeah, our family rule is that everyone must run at least two kilometers daily, no matter what!”

He said this somewhat sheepishly.
