69: Chapter 70 Accidental Situation (6)
Approaching the checkout counter, there was a shelf that mainly displayed items like chewing gum.
Yu Zexiao saw a product on the shelf with rather unique packaging and grabbed it without much thought.
The base color of the item was green, and it had a huge “003” printed on it.
Aside from that, there was a line of English, making it look deceptively similar to mint-flavored chewing gum.
Just as he was about to flip it over to see what it really was, it was their turn in line.
The cashier scanned the items and then glanced at Yu Zexiao, “Ultra-thin, do you need it?”
Yu Zexiao’s hand twitched.
He hadn’t expected that he’d actually picked up a box of “little umbrellas”!
Moreover, they were 0.03 millimeters ultra-thin, with a reed flavor!
And what’s more, they were twenty-five percent extra, more product for the same price!
No wonder he was caught off guard; he had never had a girlfriend, let alone a use for such things.
Naturally, he had no idea what ultra-thin was supposed to look like.
Who would have thought that supermarkets these days had no shame, designing the packaging for such items to resemble chewing gum, and placing them among the packs of Green Arrow?
Not just him, even Jian Anning next to him shivered a bit!
What on earth was this guy trying to do?
Was it to get back at her for the earlier mishap of almost buying “that kind of food”?
The two of them were mortified to death, especially Yu Zexiao, who felt like the item in his hand was burning hot.
He wanted to drop it, but in that moment, it was as if all his strength had been sapped away, leaving the box suspended in mid-air.
And Jian Anning, she was even less likely to suggest that he shouldn’t buy it.
The two just exchanged glances without a word.
To make matters worse, the couple queued up behind them seemed to be giving unsolicited advice after seeing Yu Zexiao “select” the little umbrellas.
“Sometimes ultra-thin can be too thin.
If you’re too vigorous, it might break.
That’s no laughing matter!”
The man even kindly picked up a box of Durex and handed it to Yu Zexiao, “You might as well buy Durex.
It’s classic, cost-effective, and we always use it.”
With that comment, the two wished they could disappear into a hole.
As they stood there rigidly, the cashier, thinking they wanted Durex, took it from Yu Zexiao’s hand, scanned it, tossed it into the shopping bag, and bluntly said, “That will be one hundred and eighty-five yuan.”
Even Jian Anning felt embarrassed by this point, quickly pulling out two red banknotes from her pocket and tossing them to the cashier without a second glance, “Keep the change!”
Then, she yanked Yu Zexiao by the arm and dashed towards the exit without looking back.
———
It wasn’t until both of them were back in their hotel room with the door shut that they felt like they could finally breathe.
Then, they exchanged another look, and for a fleeting moment, a spark flashed between their eyes.
The events of the day had been truly bizarre.
From that initial kiss to the accident when he inadvertently touched her chest, then the supermarket trip where she almost bought aphrodisiac food, and now, in her shopping bag, that glaring box of Durex…
She cleared her throat, about to speak when her phone rang.
As if relieved, she pulled it out and walked to the window sill, as though that would spare her from any more awkward face-to-face encounters with Yu Zexiao.
“Sister Minjun, what’s up?”
Hong Minjun’s voice was unusually stern, “Are you in front of the computer?
Get to it quickly!
There’s been a big issue!”
