Chapter 1730: She Is Actually Rather Adorable (20)
Lu Nanze walked up to her and held out the bag to her, saying, “I forgot to ask you for the brand you normally use, so I bought one of everything. Pick the one you like.”
Qiao Yiyi: …!!
She took the bag from him with a look of surprise and peeked in. It was filled with all sorts of menstrual pads.
She was utterly stunned.
She looked up at him with an expression of disbelief. He coughed slightly and said, “And there is some underwear in there as well. I don’t know your size, so I’ve bought one of every size.”
Qiao Yiyi: …
She was starting to feel that the person standing in front of her was a fake Lu Nanze. Otherwise, how could he have even done such a thing?!
She grimaced and lowered her head, feeling completely confused. She looked into the bag for a long time before she looked up at him again, as though she had just realized something. She said, “Thank you.”
Lu Nanze: …
He fell silent and the silence between them grew awkward.
Lu Nanze had no idea why he had acted so crazily, as though he had lost his mind. Now that he thought about it, he realized that he was behaving no differently from an infatuated young teenager.
So what if there weren’t menstrual pads at home?
There were many ways to solve the problem.
Why had he chosen the silliest way out?
At this thought, the man frowned and coughed slightly. He said as he looked at Qiao Yiyi, “Ermn, I thought that if I treated you better, you’d put more effort into my a.s.signment. After all, it’s a tough a.s.signment.”
The girl grimaced. She didn’t for a moment buy that reason.
But still, she did not think that his sudden kindness towards her had anything to do with any romantic intentions.
Because Lu Nanze already had a woman he deeply loved!
And her name was Qiao Lian. Even though she was already married, Lu Nanze couldn’t forget her.
He had even been depressed and drunk recently because of Qiao Lian’s pregnancy and the fact that she had given birth.
Unable to figure it out, she didn’t think further but took the bag and entered the bathroom.
She returned after she had changed out of her dirty clothes.
She looked at the man and again said, “Thank you! If there’s nothing else, I’ll be on my way.”
As she walked towards the door, Lu Nanze called her, “Hang on.”
Qiao Yiyi halted. Lu Nanze hurried into the kitchen. Not long after, he returned carrying a gla.s.s of sweetened water and said, “Here, drink this before you go.”
Qiao Yiyi: …
Something was definitely wrong with Lu Nanze today.
She really wasn’t used to him being so considerate.
She grimaced as she took the gla.s.s from him and gulped down the drink.
A wave of warmth spread from her mouth to her stomach. She sighed at the feeling of comfort that swept over her.
Lu Nanze continued, “If there’s nowhere to go to, you can stay here. I’m just about to leave.”
She recalled the phone call he had had before all of this.
He had mentioned that he was going somewhere after a shower. It had seemed urgent.
But he had not taken his shower nor had he left yet, so now it seemed like the matter wasn’t that urgent after all.
But to stay here?
Impossible.
