Period underwear would be better

Yun Xiaoran looked thoughtfully at the row of chocolates. It was rare for him and her to come to the supermarket together.

A box of chocolates was hardly expensive. He had already bought her a Gold Bracelet worth over sixteen thousand, so this was nothing.

"Really?" Shen Jin had never expected Yun Xiaoran to actually buy her chocolates just because she had mentioned them in passing.

A gift planned long in advance could not compare to the care someone showed by taking a casual remark of hers seriously.

Even she had only said it offhand, without expecting anything. To have someone actually remember it was the kind of touching gesture she would cherish for a long time.

"Yeah. What flavor do you like?"

Hearing that, Shen Jin came trotting over, happiness written all over her face. However cold this iceberg might be, right now it was as though warm spring sunshine had fallen on her, thawing the stiffness of her lips.

A faint smile appeared on Shen Jin's face.

At that moment, she looked nothing like the diva who dominated the stage with her singing, nor the decisive, no-nonsense woman she usually was. She looked more like a girl caught up in the sweetness of romance.

Seeing the little iceberg's sunny smile, Yun Xiaoran could not help letting a barely noticeable smile appear on his own face.

After spending ages choosing, Shen Jin finally settled on chocolates in a big heart-shaped box. Yun Xiaoran carried all their shopping bags, while Shen Jin walked beside him, happily hugging her chocolates and grinning to herself.

"Here, could you hold this for a moment?" Partway along, Shen Jin seemed to remember something and handed the chocolates to Yun Xiaoran.

"What's wrong? Is there something you need to do?" Yun Xiaoran was puzzled. They had finished everything they came for, so what did she want to do now?

"I... need to buy some things girls use, of course." Shen Jin had never imagined that one day she would say something so embarrassing in front of Yun Xiaoran.

She had been single all twenty years of her life and had always been a good girl. This was her first time saying something like that in front of a man.

"Then go ahead. I'll wait for you at the checkout." Yun Xiaoran gave a light cough. He knew she meant sanitary pads.

After saying that, Yun Xiaoran turned and slowly headed toward the checkout. Watching him move away with all those bags in his arms, Shen Jin found herself blurting out:

"Do you want to come with me? I went shopping with you just now, so now you have to come with me too."

Yun Xiaoran turned his head in astonishment. As he looked at Shen Jin and met her gaze, his ears turned red at a visible pace.

"I... think I'd better not. Besides, I'm carrying all these bags. I'll pay and wait for you."

Having said that, Yun Xiaoran was just about to leave when he remembered the relationship diaries he sometimes saw on video apps, where boyfriends bought period underwear for their girlfriends.

At that thought, Yun Xiaoran stopped after two steps, turned back, and stammered to Shen Jin:

"I heard period underwear is better than sanitary pads. Buy whatever you need. I'll pay for it later..."

Watching Yun Xiaoran make such a flustered escape, Shen Jin murmured plaintively behind him:

"It's not like I asked you to do anything else. Why did your ears turn red?"

Then, feeling sweetly happy, she watched Yun Xiaoran disappear from sight before heading to the household essentials section.

Shen Jin was an excellent driver. As long as she drove a little slower, steering one-handed was not much of a problem. Yun Xiaoran sat comfortably in the passenger seat as usual, while she watched him through the rearview mirror.

Looking at Yun Xiaoran's expression, Shen Jin let out a barely noticeable smile, as though she were looking at her own sweet little wife. Thinking of a mischievous idea, she said:

"I'm hungry now. Unwrap a chocolate for me." Yun Xiaoran nodded silently at her request, opened the box, slowly peeled off a chocolate's wrapper, and held the chocolate ball out to Shen Jin.

He held it there for several seconds, but Shen Jin did not take it, leaving him thoroughly puzzled.

"What is it?" Yun Xiaoran turned toward her in confusion, only to find Shen Jin staring at him reproachfully. Then her gaze shifted to the chocolate ball, a hint of a smile appearing even as she complained:

"I'm driving right now."

Yun Xiaoran: "..."

Clearly, she wanted him to get the chocolate ball into her mouth some other way.

Sitting in the passenger seat, Yun Xiaoran slowly moved the chocolate ball he was holding toward Shen Jin's lips.

Very satisfied with what he was doing, Shen Jin nodded and slowly bit into the chocolate ball. After eating half of it, she gave a teasing smile and said:

"This chocolate ball is too big. I can't eat it in one bite, so just keep holding it for now."

"All right." Yun Xiaoran kept his arm raised there. With his movement restricted, he could barely glance in either direction and could only watch Shen Jin slowly eat the chocolate ball.

Finally.

Yun Xiaoran survived the first chocolate ball. He slowly let out a breath and glanced at Shen Jin again from the passenger seat.

"Unwrap another one for me."

"Uh..." Yun Xiaoran was rather speechless. Feeding her one chocolate ball had already kept him busy for ages, and now she wanted a second. But Shen Jin seemed to have guessed what he was thinking and reassured him:

"Don't worry. I'll definitely eat this one faster."

As she spoke, Shen Jin let out a barely noticeable smile. Yun Xiaoran could only comply. Once he had unwrapped another chocolate ball, he reached toward Shen Jin's mouth again and pressed it against her lips. Just then, she slowed the car and steered with only her left hand.

With her right hand, she took the chocolate ball that had touched her lips. After licking her lips, Shen Jin said:

"This chocolate is pretty sweet. You should try it too."

Before Yun Xiaoran could react, the chocolate ball in Shen Jin's slender, finely boned fingers was already against his lips, with half of it pushed into his mouth.

What the heck?

With half the chocolate ball stuffed into his mouth, Yun Xiaoran did not know what to do. He had clearly seen it touch Shen Jin's lips just moments earlier.

"Go on, eat it." Through the rearview mirror, Shen Jin watched his expression with great interest.

Ever since Yun Xiaoran had blushed at the dining table last time over the subject of having children.

Shen Jin had increasingly come to find teasing Yun Xiaoran an enjoyable pastime. Watching him slowly blush, watching him become flustered, she felt more and more that she had everything firmly under control.
