Although Tang Wan couldn’t agree with her grandfather’s way of doing things, as the host, she still had to take the initiative and be enthusiastic.

After all, the Tang family wasn’t a hotel, and they’d had very few guests staying over. Although there were some disposable toiletries, it wouldn’t be an issue if it’s just a one-night stay. If it was an extended stay, then a trip to the store would have to happen.

Old Master Tang instructed Tang Wan to get a few daily necessities from the store on her way back.

“That kid has a weird temper. I don’t know what he likes and if I buy something he doesn’t, it’s going to waste. You’ll go with him and if he picks them himself. There’s no mistake about it. Since he’s the guest, we need to make sure he lives comfortably.”

Tang Wan had no choice but to seek Jiang Jinshang’s opinion.

The bodyguards wanted to intervene. After all, Jiang Jinshang didn’t like shopping. It was all done by his people.

However, Jiang Jinshang asked first, “Where are we going then?”

In the past, he wasn’t feeling well and couldn’t be bothered to move at all. What was going on today?

***

It was a huge convoy and if all entered the supermarket, it would attract too much attention. Instead, only two bodyguards followed them.

Tang Wan accompanied Jiang Jinshang and started shopping from the daily necessities section.

“Is this brand okay?” Tang Wan didn’t know his habits and preferences, so she could only choose according to her own preferences and then ask for his opinion.

Jiang Jinshang followed her step by step. The two of them occasionally communicated with each other. Although they tilted their heads and talked, they still maintained a little distance from each other. They were inexplicably intimate, but it didn’t make people feel uncomfortable.

The two bodyguards followed behind with their carts, sizing up the two people who were half a meter away.

“Don’t you feel that master is especially easy to talk to today?”

“It’s fine as long as he has such a good temper. I’m just afraid that if he holds back his emotions, we’ll be in trouble later.”

“Why don’t you get on Ms. Tang’s good side? I feel that master treats her quite differently.”

***

Tang Wan was standing in front of a shelf, choosing something. However, the phone in Jiang Jinshang’s pocket started to vibrate restlessly. He took it out and took a look. Then, he took two steps to the other side. “Hello –”

The bodyguards followed closely behind. The moment he moved, they also retreated.

“I heard you collapsed again?” The person’s voice carried a hint of mockery.

“What’s the matter?” As Jiang Jinshang spoke, his peripheral vision drifted and landed on Tang Wan.

She was looking down at the two bottles of hand sanitizer. Her long hair was hanging down, covering her face. She casually raised her hand and tucked her hair behind her ears. Her neck was thin and white, and the long green-gray dress she was wearing was tied around her slender waist.

Her shoulders were flat, her legs were long, and her light eyebrows were soft to the gaze.

“As a friend, I’m concerned about you. Could it be that the chick from the Tang family rejected you? You’re heartbroken and you’re sick from anger?”

“It’s just a rejection. What’s there to be sad about?”

“There are thousands of women in this world. If it doesn’t work, there’s more for you to choose.”

Jiang Jinshang raised her eyebrows. Other than spewing nonsense, what else could this person do?

***

Tang Wan didn’t know if it was because of the rain outside, but she felt that there were a lot of people in the supermarket today. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw someone approaching with a trolley, so she quickly slid to the right.

However, she didn’t expect that the person pushing the trolley was a naughty child. The wheels of the trolley slid forward uncontrollably and crashed into Tang Wan’s calf.

With something in her hand, she instinctively took a step back..

In the next second, her waist was grabbed by a person. Her body leaned back slightly and her back slammed into the person’s chest.

Jiang Jinshang raised his hand to support the cart and almost pulled her into his embrace.

“I’m sorry. I’m really sorry. Hurry up and apologize.” The parent of the child had an apologetic look on his face. That kid wasn’t even as tall as the cart, and he too obediently apologized.

“It’s okay.” Tang Wan shook her head in good temper, and her waist was held by someone.

In an instant..

Her heart was beating hard, and her breathing became labored.

In just an instant, he had already let go of her hand. Tang Wan tried to turn her body sideways, and avoided touching him.

The supermarket shelves were very wide, but the hild’s cart was so close to Tang Wan, squeezing her and Jiang Jinshang into a narrow space.

Physical touch was unavoidable.

His shoulder was pressed against his chest. He was wearing a thin sweater, which was thicker than the average person’s, and his body temperature increased.

“Let’s go.”

They put some distance between them. He covered her, and they hurriedly left. Only then did Tang Wan turn around and thank him. “Do you need anything else?”

“It’s about time. Let’s go home.”

His voice was warm and gentle to begin with.

The word “go home” had an extra hint of intimacy.

Tang Wan’s heart trembled violently at the mention of the ohrase.

Jiang Jinshang took the hand sanitizer from her hand and threw it into the cart behind them.

The bodyguards were stunned by what they just witnessed.

Their eyes were fixed on Jiang Jinshang. They were dumbfounded by how he just moved.

At the check out, Tang Wan and Jiang Jinshang took out their phones at the same time to pay.

“Just scan mine.”

The cashier looked at them and laughed. She scanned the phone on Jiang Jinshang’s phone. “Why are couples nowadays so calculative with their money?”

Tang Wan’s mouth twitched. She had the illusion that she now owed Jiang Jinshang much more favor than ever.

From the looks of it, they weren’t brother and sister. Instead, they looked like a couple who had just established a relationship. They were a little shy and awkward. They didn’t even dare to make intimate moves in public..

“No, we’re just friends,” Tang Wan explained.

The cashier smiled and didn’t refute. He put the groceries in the bags. “These are daily necessities. Shared by close friends, perhaps?”

They had all kinds of tissues, toothpaste, and toothbrushes. It wasn’t usual for friends to go along on a shopping trip like this.

The bodyguards were stunned by Jiang Jinshang’s movements. When they heard the cashier’s words and sized up the two of them, they felt that they…

…looked just like a pair of newlyweds..
