Chapter 48

This alcohol glass does not look the same

Chi Yi had just finished her homework and was instantly rummaging through the cabinets in the kitchen thoroughly, looking for something.

“Aunty Chen, which cabinet are the wine glasses kept in?” Chi Yi turned her head around toward Aunty Chen, who was cleaning in the living room.

“They are in the sterilized cabinet, second from the left. Search in there.”

“Oh! Okay!”

Chi Yi opened the cabinet. Sure enough, it was filled with all kinds of wine glasses.

But…

They did not have what she was looking for.

At this moment, Chi Zuxu walked in with a teacup in his hand. He was preparing to pour himself a cup of warm water, only to see Chi Yi crouched down on the ground, looking hard for something.

“What are you looking for?”

He placed the teacup aside on the cabinet top as he rested his arm against it. He bent over slightly and looked at Chi Yi squatting on the floor.

Chi Yi did not even raise her head as she said, “A wine glass!”

“Aren’t there only wine glasses in there?” Chi Zuxu asked suspiciously.

“But they aren’t the type that I want.”

Chi Yi continued to search.

“What type are you looking for?”

“I want…”

Chi Yi was just about to answer, only to belatedly realize that the person who was asking her the questions… was Chi Zuxu!

Chi Yi raised her head. As she saw his extraordinarily handsome face, her heart uncontrollably thumped a few beats. She blinked with her eyes that were full of life, before smiling gently. “Uncle!”

“What kind of wine glass do you want?”

Chi Zuxu raised his eyebrow and asked Chi Yi as he towered over her.

“Ugh… Nothing! It’s nothing.”

Chi Yi hurriedly closed the sterilized cabinet and turned around. She stood up between Chi Zuxu and the kitchen cabinet before saying, “Uncle, I would like to head out for a while…”

“Where to?” Chi Zuxu asked with furrowed eyebrows.

“The supermarket…”

“What are you buying?”

Chi Zuxu glanced at her flushed face suspiciously.

Based on his understanding of her, this little girl was obviously secretly up to something!

“To buy… some daily necessities.” Chi Yi answered vaguely.

“Wine glasses?”

He really could not understand why this little girl was searching for wine glasses.

Even if she wanted to drink alcohol, there were so many glasses here. How was it possible that she would be so fixated on what type of glass she wanted to use?

“Um… I’m buying the wine glass out of convenience! Convenience!”

“Let’s go!”

He was curious to find out what kind of wine glass this little girl was looking for.

“Huh?”

Chi Yi was taken aback.

“I will accompany you.”

“There’s no need to!!” Chi Yi waved her hand hurriedly as she nervously said, “Uncle, I really do not need you to accompany me. I, I… I want to buy some female daily products! Like sanitary pads, undergarments, whatnot. It will be inconvenient if you follow along.”

“It’s alright, I don’t mind!”

“…”

Chi Yi was ready to cry.

He did not mind, but she did!!

Chi Yi was still pulled into the car by Chi Zuxu.

At the supermarket, Chi Yi constantly fidgeted out of embarrassment. She casually grabbed two bags of sanitary pads and dumped them in the shopping cart without much thought. When they went into the undergarment store, she only lingered around for about two minutes before heading out, with the excuse that there was not anything that looked nice.

When they reached the shelf selling wine glasses, she ignored it and walked away with her head down. However, she was ultimately pulled back by Chi Zuxu.

He grabbed her toward the front of him and they faced the rows of different wine glasses. After getting her to stand properly, his hand naturally landed on Chi Yi’s shoulder as he said, “Didn’t you want to buy wine glasses too? What kind do you want? You can choose it yourself.”

“…”

Chi Yi instantly saw the type of wine glass she wanted at first glance.

It was long, thin, and the shape was similar to what one may daydream about a man’s…

But was she really going to buy it right in front of him?!

Chi Yi was depressed!

Seeing that she was not moving, Chi Zuxu asked her, “Do you need me to help you pick?”

With that, he reached out and grabbed a port glass before him. However, he was stopped by Chi Yi’s loud voice, “No! That is not similar!”

She shouted brashly and quickly held onto his large hand with her two petite hands.

“Not similar?”

Chi Zuxu lowered his gaze at her and squinted his eyes meaningfully. “Not similar to what?”
