Married to the Protagonist

Chapter 82: Peacock Spread Its Tail (1)

At the supermarket, Yan Cheng called Chen Jinyao.

This time, although Chen Jinyao gave Yan Cheng full charge over buying groceries, the latter was confused and froze for a few moments when he glanced at the different aisles containing vegetables and meat. He paused and tightly pursed his lips, unsure of what to buy.

“…” This young master was indeed not an expert in this.

Even more, he stood at the original spot feeling lost, and felt like he stood out with the surrounding.

Chen Jinyao could imagine the man knitting his brows and in deep thought right now. She smiled and said with a gentle expression, “I want to boil corn and pork chop soup for you. It’d help you to recuperate.”

Yan Cheng became immediately expressionless.

“Then buy some eggs too. There are no eggs at home. Then pick out some tomatoes as well. You can buy whatever you want too.”

The man knitted his brows, his breathing light. He said ‘oh’ and by the time he looked up and forward, the bright and vibrant colors overwhelmed Yan Cheng’s eyes. He curled his tongue, sinking into decidophobia. He wasn’t hungry right now and he didn’t know what he wanted to eat.

At this time, Chen Jinyao exclaimed meaningfully, voicing her concern, “Just buy whatever you want to eat for tonight. I’ll go out and buy the rest of the ingredients and stock up.” Saying this, she suddenly lowered her voice and explained, “I’m just scared that you might buy spoiled food.”

Yan Cheng looked down and lazily replied, “…Tch.”

Men bought things decisively and quickly.

After he bought whatever Chen Jinyao needed, he casually strolled around before heading to the cashier.

Businesses have their set marketing methods.

As for supermarkets, most commonly, some products were on sale. One could look around and see red and yellow labels on the discounted products.

Yan Cheng was more or less influenced by Chen Jinyao, having been to the supermarket many times with her. He supported her decision to be frugal and subconsciously looked at the discounted products. He glanced at it for a while, and then got in a daze.

While he was in line and waiting to pay, Yan Cheng glanced at the rectangular box that was buy two get one free. There was a glint in his eyes. He placed his hand on the shopping cart and slightly lifted his fingers, knocking against it.

When it was his turn to pay, he placed everything he wanted on top. He lazily narrowed his eyes before pretending to ask carelessly, “Why are everything on discount all couples’ things?”

Couples’ cups, couples’ slippers, couples’ pillows, etc…

Hearing this, the cashier took time out to look at him. Who knew that she was charmed and shocked at first glance. However, her occupation led her to control her expression. She said, “It’s going to be May 20th in a few days.”

“May 20th?” It wasn’t some sort of special day, no?

Seeing the man’s confused expression, the cashier was silently sure that he was a single handsome guy. But she looked down to see the ring on his ring finger in the next second…

She was originally shocked and surprised, but then her expression became complicated. Damn. He doesn’t even know what May 20th represents? Yet, he has a wife?

The cashier pursed her lips, pitying this ignorant man’s partner. “It means I love you. It’s like a day for couples to show their affection.”

After that, silence filled the air for two seconds before she slowly settled the bill. “The total is $168.5. Do you need a plastic bag? If you do, it’s another 30 cents.”

Yan Cheng slightly nodded, “Yes.”

He then came to a realization and remembered this.

It was clearly profound to set a holiday based on the date.

On the way back, a stroke of sunshine penetrated through the glass of the car window.

He coincidentally encountered a red light so he stopped the car steadily on the crosswalk. Yan Cheng pinched the steering wheel with the web between his thumb and forefinger. He lifted his slender and fair fingers slightly and then casually gazed at the road. He then saw a floral store. This wasn’t the main city road. There were all sorts of stores on this street and each one of them had to do with literature and arts
