Chapter XXXIX: Public Executions
I especially wish I had a mirror in front of me now, because then I can know what a face that is stunned, surprised, confused, and tangled will look like.
Time seemed to pause, I looked at Nie Xinyan in a daze, and she gestured with her hand to the small object, her face was covered with a shallow flush, and her eyes showed a hint of expectation.
"Or ...... I'll go buy it with you. I was the first to break the silence and asked tentatively.
"I ...... I want you to buy it for me. Her voice was still very small, and she added: "Yiyi said that if you want to determine whether a boy likes a girl or not, let that boy buy that ...... for the girl."
I stared at her with wide eyes, is this still the Nie Xinyan I know......? I don't know what to do anymore, but I haven't forgotten the weird look in my convenience store aunt when I bought a baby warmer.
She would actually throw the pot on Lin Yiyi's head, and she didn't know if Lin Yiyi was sneezing at this time.
"I... It's better to go buy it with you, or I'll carry you to buy it. I looked at her pitifully, hoping she wouldn't dwell on it, it was a bit of a shame for a man to buy that thing.
"You... Are you so unhappy?" Nie Xinyan's face was full of loss.
"It's not that I'm unhappy, it's ...... Oops, didn't you see the convenience store aunt's eyes, she kept staring at me when she bought a warm baby. If I go to buy... Go buy that thing, and I think she's going to put me in the showroom for everyone to see. "I don't know how to explain it, I just hope she understands my struggle.
But looking at her disappointed eyes, I felt extremely distressed. Her eyebrows seemed to furrow again, and she stopped talking, just staring out the window in a daze.
……
Looking at her face, I suddenly thought that she was in a state of coming to that now, and I had always heard that girls were emotionally unstable as soon as they came...... I panicked a little, clenched my fists secretly, and finally made up my mind.
"Sit here obediently, I'll be right back. As soon as I finished speaking, I rushed out of the door of this restaurant called the town with lightning speed, hoping to leave her with a very handsome back.
But when I walked to the convenience store, I regretted it a little, my aunt stared at me with a strange look from the moment I entered, and I didn't dare to say what I was going to buy.
Looking at the rows of shelves, thinking that Nie Xinyan was still enduring pain waiting for me, according to previous experience, that thing is usually with paper towels, so he asked his aunt: "Please ask, which shelf are the paper towels on?"
"The penultimate one here, you can see it when you go. After hearing this, my aunt stretched out her hand to help me point in a certain direction and said.
I looked in the direction she was pointing and soon found paper towels, and next to the tissue shelves were all kinds of sanitary napkins. I don't know why I actually feel like a thief at the moment, and I look to both sides from time to time, after all, if someone sees a man staring at a shelf full of sanitary napkins, they can't help but classify it as a pervert.
There are really a lot of types of this thing, all kinds of brands, and they are actually used at night and during the day, and what are the wings or something, I have always had difficulty choosing at this time, and I regret that I didn't ask Nie Xinyan what brand she used just now.
After dozens of seconds of deliberation, I decided to get her a pack for both night and daytime, and in order to avoid embarrassment, I also took some snacks and two packs of toilet paper, and a shopping basket was almost full of me.
Looking at this basket of things, I feel more relieved, and the embarrassing scene I imagined should not come. Carrying the shopping basket and going to the checkout line, there were three people in front of me, this convenience store is not very big, but the business seems to be really good, I began to look at the environment a little bored.
"It's your turn, young man. "My aunt is holding the barcode scanner in her left hand, and her right hand is still typing on the keyboard, but her head is already facing me.
"Oh... Good. "Put the shopping basket on the counter, take out the things one by one, and when I got the two packs of sanitary napkins, I couldn't help but look at the people behind me, but I didn't expect it to be two girls, but they were both looking down at their phones, and they shouldn't have noticed.
My aunt took the code scanner and scanned them one by one, and when she picked up the bag for the night, I had to chuckle a little, but watching her put things down after sweeping, I felt a lot more relaxed.
"Well, this is not a tissue, young man. Auntie picked up the night bag and looked at me in surprise, "You took the wrong one, go change it." Then he handed me the night's use.
...... "I don't know how to describe my mood at the moment, my aunt's eyes are extremely pure, she will think that I took the wrong one, how can I not recognize paper towels and sanitary napkins?"
"Alas, this is also the wrong one?" the aunt picked out the one that was used during the day, but there was already a trace of doubt in her tone at this time.
The two girls behind me were also attracted by my aunt's words, and they also came up to watch......
I was shouting inwardly, "Look at your phone again, curiosity is so great." "
There was a laugh from behind them, and I was already feeling embarrassed, and I really wanted to find a crack in the ground to get out, this aunt...... I don't know how to describe her, I can remember so clearly that I was looking for tissues, why I made such a mistake.
When I was at a loss and confused, my aunt made another operation that shocked my jaw, and the things she had swept before had been packed in a convenient bag, and she only took out the two packs of sanitary napkins. He held it up in front of me and asked very calmly: "Young man, you should have taken these two things by mistake, can you change them?"
I looked at her with dull eyes, she had already hung me up for public execution, I didn't know how I should reply to her, the two little girls behind me also covered their mouths and laughed quietly, I felt like a clown at this time.
"Load it up for me, I'm here to buy this. I raised my head and whispered, anyway, it's already like this, what else do I have to fear? At this moment, I feel that I have transcended the mundane, this is a kind of realm improvement, anyway, my face is gone...... That's all I can do to comfort myself.
When my aunt heard my words, her expression suddenly changed, and her face was full of a smile that I couldn't understand, and she asked again, "Young man, did you buy it for your girlfriend?"
I nodded slightly, ignoring the gazes of the two girls behind me.
"No wonder, I'll change it for you. With that, the aunt took the two packs of sanitary napkins and walked towards the shelf.
"Huh?" Out of anxiety, I don't know what to call her, and I feel even more inexplicable about her behavior, knowing that I bought it for my girlfriend, why do I need to change it?
After a while, the aunt came back, holding two packs of sanitary napkins of other brands and a packet of brown sugar, and said with a smile: "Get this for your girlfriend, it's easy to use, and brown sugar, you should also need it." "
I couldn't stop nodding my head, the gratitude in my heart couldn't be described in words, I thought she was a menopausal woman with a bad taste, but I didn't expect it to be such a warm-hearted woman in the new era.
After I finished the account and went out, I could vaguely hear my aunt's praise: "These days, there are not many such young men." "
happily walked to the restaurant with a convenient bag, picked up the receipt and glanced at it, and suddenly found a problem - the two packs that my aunt chose for me seemed to be much more expensive than the two packs I chose before. Well...... I kept nodding my head, and this reason succeeded in convincing me.
……
I don't know how long Nie Xinyan has been in this position, but when I came back, she was still looking out the window in a daze, and I gently patted her on the shoulder.
"Don't touch me, aren't you willing to help me buy it?"
"What?" I looked at her dumbfounded, "don't say you didn't know I was out." "
Nie Xinyan turned her head to look at me, and when she saw the bag of snacks, there was a hint of loss in her eyes, and she forced a smile on her face: "It's okay, it's that I didn't consider your situation." "
Looking at her like this, I couldn't bear it, so I turned out the two packs of expensive things and handed them to her.
Nie Xinyan obviously didn't react, her eyes were full of doubts, she looked at these two packs of small objects with some blankness, and the next moment her eyes glowed, and two drops of crystal sparkled were about to come out.
I smoothed her loose hair and said, "After all, it's the first time, and I'll definitely buy it for you next time." "
Looking at her touched face, I added, "Don't get too excited, if you really want to repay me, just let me try your lipstick twice." As he spoke, he smiled at her with a cheap face.
Nie Xinyan ignored me, focused her eyes on the two packs of sanitary napkins, looked at them for a long time, raised her head and asked, "Did you choose this yourself?"
I felt that the time had finally come to show my strength, so I told her everything I had experienced at the convenience store, and even told her about my mental activities at that time. Nie Xinyan held her chin with one hand, looking very interesting, and she finally laughed out loud when she heard that I was publicly executed by my aunt.
I was completely immersed in it, describing it vividly, and finally ended with the convenience store aunt's praise for me, and then patiently waited for Nie Xinyan's compliment, after all, even the convenience store aunt had sincere praise for me.
"Wuxiu, I won't ask you to buy this for me in the future. Nie Xinyan said to me with a serious face.
I was stunned and asked, "Why do you say that? Isn't this useful?"
"It's not a question of whether it's easy to use or not, it's because I found you a little stupid, what if I let you out and buy this for me again, and you were cheated by other girls. In my astonishment, she threw herself into my arms and hugged me tightly with both hands, which made me a little breathless, a little hot, but it felt very sweet......
……
The moonlight is still soft, and parting is the most sad time. We both looked at each other in front of the dorm building, her eyes brighter than the two brightest stars in the night sky.
"Okay, go up, I'm going to Lao Liu's office for penance from tomorrow, come and see me if you miss me." "
"Well, you take this. Nie Xinyan handed me a small cylindrical object.
I subconsciously looked at it and asked, "Lipstick?"
"Well, didn't you say you wanted to try it? "
"Huh, what?" When I looked up at her, I saw only her back, and I could still hear her laughter......
Looking at this lipstick in my hand, I was a little stunned, this ...... Who did you learn from......
…
