Chapter 67: This Man Is Simply Too Skillful
After Gu Zhenzhi calmed his emotions, he lifted his long, cool gaze and looked in the direction Ruan Cha pointed. What he saw left him speechless. His expression was one of indescribable confusion.
He lowered his eyes once more, fixing them on her delicate, porcelain-like face, his voice tinged with doubt as he asked, "Are you sure?"
Without hesitation, Ruan Cha replied crisply, "I'm sure!"
Gu Zhenzhi: "..."
At that moment, the camera followed the girl's slender, fair finger upward. When the audience saw the top row—XX Space Day Use... Xfi Night Use...
Ruan Cha looked up as well. "!!!"
Damn it!!!!
Why were sanitary pads placed on the shelf above the honey, of all things??
Her face was filled with embarrassment.
Right then, the live stream chat exploded in perfect unison—
[Hahahahahaha, I'm so embarrassed I'm clawing at the floor!]
[My god, why is this so funny???]
[Hahahahaha, why is she so adorable!!]
Sensing Ruan Cha's overwhelming urge to bury her face in the ground, Gu Zhenzhi's elegant, pale fingers pinched the back collar of her shirt, pulling her into his arms and tucking her under his arm. "Let’s go look at something else."
It wasn’t until they reached the snack aisle that Ruan Cha finally began to relax. Her expression had already returned to calm composure. As long as she wasn’t embarrassed, it was others who had to feel awkward.
Just then, Ruan Wei and Gu Jiayan happened to be passing from the snack aisle to the produce section. As they walked by behind them, Ruan Cha overheard Ruan Wei exclaim, "Jiayan, if it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t have been able to reach that pack of yogurt. You’re amazing!"
Ruan Cha frowned slightly. This time, she carefully glanced up at the shelf in front of her, then slipped her arm through Gu Zhenzhi’s and gave it a gentle shake. "Zhizhi, I want that pack of cookies. Will you get it for me~?"
Her voice was naturally sweet and clear. Since she often acted spoiled and pitiful with Gu Zhenzhi, it didn’t sound forced at all—on the contrary, it sent the live chat into a frenzy of excited squeals!
[Oh my god, so sweet!]
[Ruan Cha’s big eyes, can I have half of them?]
[Girl, it’s enough to be a little cute—no need to be this sweet and captivating!]
When Gu Zhenzhi heard her call him "Zhizhi gege," his back stiffened, and he couldn’t help but tremble slightly.
It felt as if a jolt of electricity traveled up his spine and settled at the tip of his heart, causing it to thump violently.
"Which one?"
Suppressing the turmoil within, he looked up at the cookies on the shelf.
"That one, with the orange packaging!" Ruan Cha tilted her head, trying to stand on tiptoe to point it out to him.
However, she must have overestimated her own height. After a few little hops, she gave up and lowered her eyes, deciding to let Gu Zhenzhi handle it.
Just as she was about to speak the name of the cookies, she suddenly felt her feet leave the ground—
She gasped in surprise and looked down. Gu Zhenzhi had picked her up entirely, lifting her so she was at shoulder height.
Dangling in the air, Ruan Cha clung to the shelf for support, startled. The cookies that had just been out of reach were now right before her eyes.
The live chat went wild once again—
[Mama, mama, I’ve died, I’ve revived, I can’t breathe!!! This is too sweet!!]
[Oh my god, Gu Zhenzhi really knows what he’s doing!!]
[They’re such a perfect match—if they don’t get married, it would be a crime!]
[This relationship is a hundred times more natural than that fake couple next door!]
[If I ever try to date, I’m afraid I’ll crush my future boyfriend with expectations!!!]
