"Young man, you're buying sanitary pads for your girlfriend, no need to be embarrassed. Just grabbing this type isn't enough. You need to get some for daily use too. This is usually for night use, so you need to pair them up," the elderly woman enthusiastically started to introduce to Gu Yunting, handing him two packs of daily pads.
Gu Yunting could only reach out and take them, his handsome face expressionless. "Thank you."
He turned to leave again, but the elderly woman grabbed him, taking a basket and handing it to him. "Put them here. It's inconvenient to carry so much. There aren't many young men like you who dote on their girlfriends. Your girlfriend is quite lucky. Do you want to buy anything else..."
"Thank you, no need. These are enough!" Gu Yunting grabbed the basket and quickly left, escaping the enthusiastic elderly woman.
The elderly woman watched Gu Yunting's retreating figure with a loving look, and said to a young girl beside her who was daydreaming, "See? When looking for a boyfriend, you need someone who knows how to cherish you. This young man looks like a good person, and he's handsome too."
The man's cool demeanor had already attracted two young girls. They stomped their feet in excitement, completely agreeing with the elderly woman's words. But where would they find such a handsome and thoughtful boyfriend!
The young lady who snagged this handsome guy was truly blessed!!
Gu Yunting, his face ashen, quickly paid and left without looking back under everyone's gaze, carrying his purchases.
Ye Wan was worried he wouldn't find his way and was about to go look when she saw him walking out with a bag. A bodyguard opened the car door for him, and Gu Yunting quickly got in, immediately taking off his jacket and tossing it aside.
Ye Wan, "?"
"It's dirty," Gu Yunting couldn't stand being touched by a stranger. The elderly woman had touched his jacket just now.
Ye Wan took the bag Gu Yunting had brought back and opened it. She saw two packs of daily sanitary pads and two packs of panty liners. She looked up at the man beside her, his handsome face tinged with a faint blush.
Was he embarrassed?
"What are you looking at? It's for you!" Gu Yunting glared at the girl with wide, round eyes. His life had never been so awkward!
Ye Wan, "..."
"Thank you." Ye Wan dared not look at him again, but she couldn't help but want to laugh. There was also a vague sense of sweetness in her heart.
Gu Yunting snorted and said nothing more.
Upon arriving at the Gu residence, it was pitch black, not a single light in sight.
Ye Wan found it strange. In her memory, the Gu residence was always brightly lit!
Had there been a power outage?
She immediately looked at Gu Yunting and asked worriedly, "Did something happen?"
Gu Yunting also looked grave. "We'll know once we go inside."
Ye Wan's tension heightened at his expression. Gu Yunting got out of the car first, and Ye Wan could only follow him. They walked into the Gu residence one after another.
But it was even darker inside. Ye Wan couldn't see anything once she entered. Instinctively, she reached out for Gu Yunting, but he had already disappeared.
"Gu Yunting!" Ye Wan was startled and couldn't feel anything with her hands. "Gu Yunting, where are you! Are you alright?"
No one answered her. Ye Wan became anxious and took out her phone, intending to turn on the flashlight. Suddenly, a light appeared out of nowhere. It was candlelight. Looking closer, she saw Granny Sun holding a cake with a single candle on it...
Ye Wan, "..."
"Xiao Wan, happy birthday!" Granny Sun's plump face was beaming with a radiant smile.
Ye Wan, "........."
Even if they wanted to get her a birthday cake, did they have to make it look like a haunted house? This was too scary!!
"Thank you, Granny Sun. Can we turn on the lights now?"
The lights of the Gu residence were gradually turned on. Granny Sun smiled and held up the cake, saying, "Let's go to the dining room to blow out the candle."
Ye Wan looked around, unable to find Gu Yunting. She was a little puzzled. Did this guy have night vision? She was too scared to move in the dark just now, but he had disappeared!
Ye Wan followed Granny Sun into the dining room and saw Gu Yunting again. He was already seated at the head of the dining table. Granny Sun happily placed the small six-inch cake on the table and said, "Dinner in the kitchen is almost ready. I'll go check."
"Come over and blow out the candle and make a wish," Gu Yunting beckoned her over.
