Before he died, my grandfather forced me to marry the richest man in the capital.

The incident happened suddenly. Last night, the girl had a deep conversation with him, and after taking a shower, she got her period. As a result, the girl forgot to bring her essentials.

Han Yue squatted on the ground and searched every corner of her suitcase but couldn't find what the little girl needed.

After Guoguo became pregnant, she stopped using those products and threw away the ones she had left over. Han's mother had them, but the brand wasn't the one Lan Yunxi used.

Furthermore, the girl is obsessive-compulsive about this. She only uses one brand of sanitary napkins and has specific requirements regarding length and feel. They cannot be mesh; they must be soft cotton and ultra-thin.

Han Yue asked softly, "Xiao Xi, does your stomach hurt?"

Lan Yunxi shook her head. Her stomach didn't hurt, but she was afraid to lie in bed. "Brother Yue, do you know how to buy it? Or can you ask my brother to buy it for me? He's bought it for me many times before."

She was a little worried that Han Yue wouldn't buy sanitary napkins, since he had never bought them before and hadn't packed them in his suitcase this time because he was in a hurry.

Han Yue was also afraid of buying the wrong product. The young girl only used one brand and two styles, one for daytime use and one for nighttime use. Buying more would be a waste. "Well, I'll have my older brother come with me this time. I'll remember next time. You wait at home. I'm going out to buy it now. Call me if you feel unwell."

Lan Yunxi's periods are always normal, except for heavy flow and no menstrual cramps. "Go on." If you don't go now, you'll be in big trouble.

After giving the instructions, Han Yue put on a black down jacket, wrapped a gray scarf that Sister Lu had bought around his neck, and strode outside. He arrived at Lan Yunchen's door and knocked.

Less than half a minute later, Lan Yunchen came to open the door in his pajamas. Before Lan Yunchen could ask anything, Han Yue said directly, "Big brother, come with me to the supermarket. Xiao Xi forgot to bring her daily necessities. I don't know what brand they are."

These words were spoken.

Lan Yunchen understood. Without hesitation, he turned around and went back into the room. He quickly took off his pajamas, changed into his outdoor clothes, and was dressed in just a few minutes.

Han Yue watched Lan Yunchen change clothes the whole time. He had a good figure and could feel the firmness of his chest even through his clothes.

"Let's go." Lan Yunchen ignored Han Yue's blatant scrutiny. "You drive." He wasn't very familiar with the routes in the capital.

Because the girl was in a hurry to get the items, Han Yue sped up a bit, and soon the car stopped in the supermarket parking lot.

Before getting out of the car, Lan Yunchen habitually took a mask out of his pocket and put it on. Han Yue turned his head and asked, "Afraid of being noticed by girls?"

Lan Yunchen: "I'll give you a chance."

Han Yue smiled and stopped joking.

Supermarket.

Lan Yunchen wasn't embarrassed at all that a grown man was helping a girl buy daily necessities. He politely asked the staff member who was setting up the shelves, "Excuse me, could you tell me which section has sanitary napkins?"

The clerk was stunned for a moment. It was the first time a man had asked her this question. Every day, boys would come to the supermarket to buy this for girls, but many of them would be embarrassed and would go to find it secretly.

It's rare to see someone like this man, who isn't embarrassed at all and asks so openly, as if he wanted to use the same thing.

The supermarket employee politely led the two to the women's section, glancing at the handsome Han Yue before leaving. Han Yue, however, pretended not to see them and ignored them completely.

Lan Yunchen: "Thank you, thank you for your trouble."

"You're welcome. Do you need me to introduce you?" The staff member was worried that the two grown men wouldn't understand, so he thought he would help with the introduction.

"No need." The staff member replied politely but with a hint of distance, and not wanting to press the matter further, they could only leave.

In the women's area, two grown men were carefully selecting sanitary napkins. Lan Yunchen was like a salesperson, patiently explaining to Han Yue the brands Lan Yunxi needed, as well as details to help Han Yue avoid buying the wrong ones in the future, such as styles and subtle differences in font.

The girls who came to buy sanitary napkins were incredibly envious, and several wanted to get closer. Lan Yunchen was wearing a mask, while Han Yue was not wearing anything at all—no hat, no mask, his handsome face exposed to the air.

Girls who are attracted to good looks will be drawn to it.

Before the girl could get closer, Han Yue spoke indifferently, "Buying this for my wife."

One of the girls had just taken a step forward when she heard this and withdrew her foot, thinking that there was no more to come. Little did she know that Han Yue's next words gave them hope, "The one next to me can consider it."

Lan Yunchen bent down to pick up the sanitary napkins, tossed them into the shopping basket, smiled, and said in a deep voice, "These are for my girlfriend. Sorry."

Girl: They're playing with us, never mind, let's go.

After buying the items, Han Yue remembered Lan Yunchen's instructions and the details of the selection. He smiled knowingly and said, "Big brother has a girlfriend? What a tomboy."

Lan Yunchen didn't answer whether there was a yes or no, but simply said, "That's a good excuse."

Han Yue followed behind with a smile, took the shopping basket from Lan Yunchen, and prepared to pay. He ran into an acquaintance in the queue. Yan's mother, who was in the next line, spotted Han Yue and greeted him warmly, "Xiao Yue."

Lan Yunchen, who was already standing outside the cashier in the distance, looked towards the source of the sound. After seeing who it was, he pulled his mask up and lowered his head.

Han Yue: "Hello, Auntie. I'm buying something for my fiancée."

Mother Yan tiptoed and looked at the sanitary napkins on the cashier's counter. She was both disappointed and envious. The Han family's son was really something, coming out late at night to buy these things for his fiancée. In the end, Xiao Na was destined to be out of luck. "When it comes to spoiling your wife, you and your father are the same."

Han Yue smiled but didn't continue. It was really strange to chat across the cashier's counter; everyone around was listening, watching like they were watching a monkey.

The two were in the same spot and paid at the same time. Yan's mother came alone in the evening, Yan Na was working overtime, Yan Zhun had to go to the hospital for surgery, Yan Feifei was punished by her sister to read the Yan's Employee Handbook, and Yan's father went to have tea with his friends.

Only Yan's mother was very free and bored, so she came to the supermarket to browse around. It just so happened that the family's shower gel had run out. Yan's mother didn't like the toothpaste, toothbrush, and shower gel she used, so she asked the nanny to buy them, as she preferred to do it herself.

After leaving the cashier, Lan Yunchen was nowhere to be seen. Han Yue looked around and sent Lan Yunchen a message: Where are you hiding?

Lan Yunchen: Underground parking lot.

Han Yue took the things from Yan's mother's hands and carried them. After all, she was an elder, and the two families had a good relationship. As for why the Yan family and the Han family were so close...

Because Han's father used to get injured frequently, and whenever he got injured, he would go to Yan Zhun's grandfather for treatment, the two families became very close over time. After Guo Guo came back, Yan Zhun also invited Guo Guo to the Yan family's hospital, but Guo Guo did not go.

"You're a really good kid. You came all alone too?" Mother Yan looked at the two bags in Han Yue's hands and nodded with satisfaction.

"No, there's another one, my fiancée's brother." Han Yue smiled after saying that.

Upon arriving at the underground parking lot, Lan Yunchen leaned against the side of Han Yue's car, head bowed, still diligently texting: "Han Yue and I are at the supermarket tonight. I'm not sure if we'll run into anyone you know. If you need to perform, please let me know in advance."

Lan Yunchen was clever; he didn't directly mention your mother, otherwise it would have been an admission that he had thoroughly investigated the Yan family.

Yan Na: Okay, received, thank you.

Lan Yunchen: I will report my itinerary to you while I am in the capital.

Yan Na: ?

Lan Yunchen: Don't misunderstand, I'm afraid it will cause you trouble.

Yan Na: Okay, thank you.

Han Yue chatted casually with Yan's mother, mostly in a question-and-answer format. Han Yue put Yan's mother's shopping bags into the trunk, glanced at Lan Yunchen, and said to Yan's mother, "Auntie, I'm leaving now."

"Okay, bring your fiancée over when you have time."

"OK."

Watching Han Yue's departing figure, Yan's mother sighed, "What a good boy!" She opened the driver's side door, got in, started the car, and drove away. As the car pulled away, Lan Yunchen's figure caught her eye again, and she slowly stepped on the brake.

As soon as Yan's mother stepped into the car, Lan Yunchen opened the passenger door and got in. Yan's mother opened the window but couldn't ask anything, since the car couldn't reverse.

In the end, he could only wave goodbye to Han Yue again and invite him to visit the Yan family again.

After getting in the car, Han Yue immediately started the engine. The little girl was still waiting at home, which had already wasted a lot of time. While turning the steering wheel, he said, "That was Yan Na's mother. Big brother should know that."

Han Yue didn't believe that Lan Yunchen hadn't investigated the Yan family; he guessed he had already done so. Naturally, Lan Yunchen didn't respond to that statement.

This silence was tacit agreement, and Han Yue didn't delve any further. Instead, he became unusually talkative, asking, "Do you know why Yan Na hasn't had a boyfriend?"

Sure enough, Lan Yunchen put away his phone, crossed his arms, leaned back, and looked like he was all ears. "What do you say?"

Han Yue smiled, indicating his interest. "Information will be exchanged for a gift."

"Once I joined the company, I've become incredibly proficient in finance."

Han Yue: "Many people like Yan Na, but very few have the guts to pursue her. Many rich second-generation heirs like to have a girlfriend they can always have with them, but Yan Na is obviously not like that. Besides, Yan Na doesn't look down on these rich second-generation heirs. And there's something else you should know: if the Yan family loses Yan Na, it's like they're missing a pair of legs."

"I can confirm for you that she has never had a boyfriend, but I don't know if she has a girlfriend."

Lan Yunchen: "............" He closed his eyes and pretended to sleep. He suspected that Han Yue was trying to trick him into talking. He already knew about the things Han Yue was talking about.

Back home, Han Yue took the sanitary napkins upstairs, while Lan Yunchen prepared brown sugar water downstairs.

"Xiao Xi, here, would you like to wash up?"

Lan Yunxi took the things from Han Yue's hands, and gave Han Yue an encouraging kiss before going into the bathroom. "No need, I just took a shower. Thank you, my prince consort."

Prince Consort? That's a good term.

Han Yue leaned against the bathroom door, waiting for the little girl to come out so he could share their chance encounter that evening: "We met Yan Na's mother at the supermarket."

A little girl's voice came from inside, sounding curious and eager to chat. "That pretty lady from the other day, did you see her, brother?"

One was inside and the other was outside, chatting through the door.

Han Yue: "I saw it."

He hid in the car, wondering about the complicated look in Aunt Yan's eyes when she left, and what the relationship was between his brother-in-law and Yan Na.

The only thing that's certain is that they must have known each other for a long time.
