Mrs. Da Ma took a glance.
She shook her head and said, "We don't have that brand here for now."
"Don't have it?" Ye Jinghuai looked visibly disappointed.
It wasn't that he was afraid of going to different places to look for this brand.
It's just that he didn't expect An Nuan to still be sitting on the toilet at the moment.
If he didn't go back, she wouldn't be able to leave the toilet.
"Let me recommend the best sanitary pads we have here," Mrs. Da Ma said enthusiastically. "It's this type, I guarantee your wife will love it. It's gentle on the skin and keeps you dry."
As she spoke, Mrs. Da Ma handed a box to Ye Jinghuai.
Ye Jinghuai accepted it somewhat awkwardly.
As a man, he had never really dealt with this stuff before.
"Is it really effective?" Ye Jinghuai asked with some concern.
"You can trust me! With a good man like you, Mrs. Da Ma would never deceive you," Mrs. Da Ma said sincerely.
Ye Jinghuai believed her, "Then I'll buy this."
Saying that, Ye Jinghuai took it and was about to leave.
"Wait a moment, young man. These sanitary pads are on promotion. Buy three and get one free. You can get three packs for your wife, and I'll give you an extra pack. After all, you'll need them," Mrs. Da Ma promoted.
Ye Jinghuai nodded, "Alright."
He decided to buy a few more packs, just in case An Nuan came over next time and they would be prepared.
"Oh, and there are panty liners here too. They can be used when the flow is light. It's more comfortable. You should buy some more since they're on sale," Mrs. Da Ma quickly grabbed a few boxes of panty liners.
"Oh, okay."
"And this, it's specialized tissue for the menstrual period. Women need to pay special attention to hygiene during this time. This kind of tissue is safer and more reliable. It's also on promotion now, buy five and get one free. Let Mrs. Da Ma give you a few," she said.
Ye Jinghuai nodded.
"This is a feminine wash. Use it once in the morning and once at night during the menstrual period. It'll make you feel more comfortable. It's on promotion too, so Mrs. Da Ma will give you some," she continued.
"Oh."
So it went.
Ye Jinghuai originally just went out to buy a pack of sanitary pads, but when he left the supermarket, he was carrying two big bags, one in each hand, without exaggeration.
He returned home.
An Nuan's legs were getting numb from sitting for so long.
Just as she was about to call Ye Jinghuai, she saw him walking towards her with two big bags, leaving her dumbfounded.
"You bought so much?" An Nuan asked.
"Shouldn't I buy this much?" Ye Jinghuai retorted.
So this guy got taken advantage of, completely unaware.
Ye Jinghuai placed the shopping bags on the bathroom counter and took out each item one by one. "They didn't have the sanitary pads you mentioned, so the supermarket lady recommended this brand."
Saying that, Ye Jinghuai handed them to An Nuan.
An Nuan took a look.
It was a brand she wasn't very familiar with, but it didn't discourage Ye Jinghuai.
"The lady said it's the best. It'll keep you dry," Ye Jinghuai said with a smile.
An Nuan nodded.
So even the cunning and sly Ye Jinghuai could be easily deceived at times.
"These are panty liners. They're for light flow," he explained.
"Mmm," An Nuan looked at him as if he was presenting treasures.
He took out all the items he bought.
Clearly, there were still some left, and he looked proud.
An Nuan didn't tell him that she was leaving in the afternoon.
Did he buy so much stuff intending for her to pack it and take it away?!
She changed her sanitary pad, put on her pants.
"We don't need these, right?" Ye Jinghuai asked.
"No need," An Nuan replied honestly.
Ye Jinghuai looked at An Nuan.
An Nuan smiled, "Use it next time."
"...Clearly, she was just brushing him off."
Being as clever as Ye Jinghuai, in that instant, he knew he had been taken advantage of by the supermarket auntie.
Fortunately.
When smart people confront each other, they always leave each other some dignity.
An Nuan didn't say anything.
Ye Jinghuai silently put everything away in the cupboard.
Out of sight, out of mind.
"What time is your flight in the afternoon?" Ye Jinghuai asked.
"2 o'clock."
"That's still early." Ye Jinghuai looked at the time and asked again, "Are you hungry?"
"Mhmm." An Nuan nodded.
Because it was her first day of menstruation, her stomach was still a bit achy.
She didn't have much energy.
"It seems like there's not much food at home. I'll make noodles for you," Ye Jinghuai said, "with two eggs."
"... An Nuan looked at Ye Jinghuai.
It was clearly an ordinary sentence.
But when heard between lovers, it had a certain...
Ye Jinghuai couldn't help but laugh, "Mrs. Ye, where were you thinking of?!"
An Nuan looked away, "I wasn't thinking."
"You're blushing like this and still claim you weren't thinking?!"
She really wasn't thinking at first.
But when Ye Jinghuai said that, she actually started to think.
"I really wasn't thinking." An Nuan gritted her teeth and turned to leave.
Ye Jinghuai suddenly hugged An Nuan tightly.
An Nuan couldn't break free.
In that moment, she heard Ye Jinghuai whispering in her ear, "Next time, I'll let you have your fill."
"Ye Jinghuai!" An Nuan's face was about to explode.
How could this guy be so shameless?
"Be good, lie on the bed first, I'll make the noodles for you."
This time he specifically said "noodles."
An Nuan left Ye Jinghuai's embrace and lay down on the bed.
Feeling a bit melancholic for no reason.
The first day was always a bit uncomfortable.
Of course.
That wasn't the point.
The point was that at the time of parting, it should have been possible to... but now, they were just at a loss.
She lay on the bed for quite a while.
Ye Jinghuai walked into the room with a bowl of noodles in hand.
An Nuan sat up from the bed.
Ye Jinghuai fed An Nuan the noodles.
Habits could be really scary sometimes.
In these few days, Ye Jinghuai had been meticulous, making her feel that everything was taken for granted.
"Mrs. Ye, have you gained weight?" Ye Jinghuai suddenly asked.
An Nuan had just burped after eating.
It was obvious that she was satisfied.
Hearing Ye Jinghuai's words, her face clearly turned a bit unpleasant. "Are you disgusted?"
"No." Ye Jinghuai smiled. "The more flesh you have, the more I can love you."
"So cheesy." An Nuan looked like she couldn't stand it.
In fact.
She was already extremely delighted.
An Nuan's accusation didn't bother Ye Jinghuai.
He said earnestly, "When you go back, remember to eat more, gain some weight, you know?"
No way.
Which woman wants to gain weight?
"Take care of yourself." Ye Jinghuai touched An Nuan's cheek, his expression serious.
Whenever Ye Jinghuai was serious.
An Nuan couldn't resist.
She leaned over and kissed Ye Jinghuai's lips.
A quick kiss, then she pulled away.
Ye Jinghuai looked at her with deep affection.
An Nuan said, "You take care of yourself too."
"Mhmm." Ye Jinghuai nodded.
"Ye Jinghuai." An Nuan suddenly felt a bit down.
"What's wrong?"
"I just feel that here, we are truly husband and wife, like an ordinary family. It's not extravagant, but it's warm and happy," An Nuan said, experiencing the bittersweet feeling that comes with extreme happiness. People tend to worry and feel insecure when they are at their happiest moments. "In the future, you will continue to prosper in the aristocratic family, and I will keep working at An Corporation. Our relationship will continue to flourish and grow stronger."
