So all the wives were waiting for me to break up with them.

After finishing one task, Yun Daidai began to think about other things.

"Should we bring You a gift?" Yun Daidai murmured softly.

To be honest, she really wanted to give Zhou You a gift that was full of sincerity.

Five hundred and twenty origami cranes, a bottle overflowing with little stars, a carefully knitted scarf...

but.

"Never mind." Yun Daidai's gaze swept over some small items on her right, and she gave up the idea of ​​bringing these things to someone.

"Given our current relationship, it's not appropriate."

She thought about everything at home, one by one, until the sun was high in the sky before she left home with a hint of trepidation.

Although Yun Mingyue took the initiative to invite her to Zhou You's house for the New Year, what if Zhou You didn't want to see her?

"If he doesn't want to see me, I'll be sensible and leave. Anyway, I'm used to spending Chinese New Year alone."

Yun Mingyue used to be a workaholic, and given their terrible mother-daughter relationship, is it really possible that they could spend the Spring Festival together happily?

At most, they'll just find a place to eat, but most of the time they'll end up having a big argument and parting on bad terms.

Feeling extremely uneasy, Yun Daidai arrived near Zhou You's house. When she saw the gate of the residential area in the distance, her already slow pace slowed down even further.

She hesitated and took small steps forward, then suddenly stopped next to a red fire hydrant. She clutched her lower abdomen with one hand, and her pretty face turned deathly pale.

"Hiss~~ Why did it come early this month?" Yun Daidai gasped, as she had always suffered from particularly severe menstrual cramps.

She bit her lower lip hard, took out a medicine bottle from her body, and shook it gently. Not hearing the sound of the pills clattering inside, her expression immediately turned panicked.

Lately, she's been so preoccupied with how she should behave when she visits Zhou You's family during the Lunar New Year that she completely forgot she finished her medication last month.

"Is there a pharmacy nearby?"

Yun Daidai clutched her lower abdomen and looked around, but her legs went weak as another wave of intense pain surged through her body.

She almost fell to her knees if she hadn't grabbed the fire hydrant next to her in time.

She lowered her head, cold sweat uncontrollably beading on her forehead, her delicate body trembling.

"Yun Daidai, if you work hard, you'll finally have a chance to talk to You face-to-face about things outside of work."

"You can handle this kind of small thing yourself, you don't need him..."

Yun Daidai lowered her head even further.

My heart suddenly ached more than my body, as if something had stabbed my heart.

It's not that he doesn't need it, but even if she did, he wouldn't act the same way as before.

…………

the other side.

After Zhou You waited for Chen Tangtang and Chen Youzi to make a fuss for a while, he figured that Chen Tangtang had had enough fun, so he stepped forward and snatched the item from Chen Tangtang's hand and handed it to Chen Youzi.

Then he invited everyone into the house.

"Let's all go inside."

The four of them entered the house one by one. Zhou You rolled up his sleeves and prepared to go into the kitchen to start a fire and cook. Yun Mingyue put her bag on the coffee table and quickly followed him.

"I'll help you."

"Sister Hua, you are a guest."

“You said we were family.”

"Then... thank you for your trouble, Sister Hua."

Zhou You and Yun Mingyue chatted as they went into the kitchen. He opened the refrigerator, took out a piece of raw beef, washed it, and cut it into small pieces on the cutting board.

Yun Mingyue had also heated up the pot. She took the ingredients he handed her and put them into the pot.

Sizzle~~

Immediately, an enticing aroma of meat and cooking oil filled the kitchen.

"Little brother, turn on the range hood for me." Yun Mingyue directed Zhou You, acting like the natural mistress of the house. Anyone who didn't know better would think this was her home.

"Hmm," Zhou You responded, raising his hand to press the switch on the range hood.

The range hood started sucking in air with a "whoosh whoosh" sound.

Just as he was about to turn around to prepare the other ingredients, Yun Mingyue's voice came again.

"We're out of soy sauce."

"Soy sauce?" Zhou You turned to look at the soy sauce bottle in Yun Mingyue's hand, which was now only half full.

He wiped his hands. "I'll go downstairs to buy it."

"Let Chen Tangtang go. I think she's just idling around anyway."

"Sister Bing is so excited today, let her have her fun." Zhou You glanced at Chen Tangtang, who was saying, "Youzi, let me show you a big treasure," and pulling Chen Youzi into the bedroom, and replied to Yun Mingyue.

Yun Mingyue rolled her eyes playfully. "Just spoil her then."

Zhou You just smiled when he heard this and walked out of the kitchen, saying, "I'll be right back."

He grabbed his phone and hurried downstairs to a convenience store near his apartment complex.

The cashier sitting here is an old man.

"Luckily, Uncle Zhao, you're still running your shop." Zhou You walked into the shop and greeted the old man. He had lived there for a long time, so he naturally knew all the shop owners in the area.

"Heh, if I close now, you won't be able to buy anything you're missing," Uncle Zhao replied with a laugh.

Zhou You walked in familiarly, picked up a bottle of soy sauce, and paid for it by scanning a QR code on his phone without even asking the price.

"You've worked hard during the New Year. Now I'm off. There are people waiting for me at home. Uncle Zhao, smoke less."

"I'm surviving on this cigarette."

After exchanging a few words, Zhou You left the convenience store carrying a bottle of soy sauce. However, he hadn't gone far when a beautiful woman dressed in a bright red dress that most people couldn't pull off, carrying a large bag, gracefully approached.

“Xiao You~~” Ning Moxin smiled sweetly at him, “What a coincidence, I didn’t expect to run into you outside the community.”

"Sister Mo."

Zhou You greeted Ning Moxin, then raised the soy sauce in his hand, "I was cooking with Sister Hua when we realized we were out of soy sauce, so I came down to buy some."

"The bright moon has arrived."

Ning Moxin and Zhou You walked towards the residential area together, a competitive spirit rising in her heart. "Later, Xiao You, I'll let you see who has better cooking skills, me or Mingyue."

"It must be you, Sister Mo." Ning Moxin's cooking skills are definitely the best among all the people Zhou You knows.

"Really?"

"real."

"I'm a little happy."

Upon hearing this, Ning Moxin smiled, flicked her hair, and turned her head toward Zhou You.

Yu Guangzhong noticed the figure of a girl.

296. Before you know it, your hair has turned white.

Zhou You asked Ning Moxin, who had suddenly stopped, with a hint of surprise, "What's wrong?"

"Xiao You, isn't that Yun Daidai?" Ning Moxin pointed to the distance.

"Yun Daidai?" Zhou You looked in the direction Ning Moxin was pointing.

A girl, bent over and clutching her lower abdomen, her face deathly pale, came into view.

"It really is Dai Dai." Zhou You murmured, then frowned. As Yun Dai Dai's ex-boyfriend, he immediately guessed what was wrong with her.

Do you have menstrual cramps?

He thought for a moment and said to Ning Moxin, "Sister Mo, I'm going to buy some medicine. Give it to Dai Dai later, but don't tell her that I bought it."

Ning Mo glanced at the pitiful Yun Daidai from afar and felt a pang of pity. She nodded gently, "Let's hurry up."

Zhou You and Ning Moxin discussed it and, without further delay, hurriedly ran to the nearby pharmacy, but it was closed today.

"The door isn't open? What do we do now?" Ning Moxin frowned slightly with worry, then turned her head to look at Yun Daidai.

"I'm going to make a phone call." Zhou You picked up his phone and put it to his ear.

After a while, the call went through.

"Aunt Gu, could you please come down and open the door?"

"Yes, I just want to buy some medicine, ibuprofen."

"It's troublesome."

Zhou You exchanged a few words with the woman on the other end of the phone, and just as he hung up, the door of the pharmacy was opened from the inside.

He hurried inside and picked up the box of ibuprofen that Aunt Gu had placed on the glass cabinet.

“You haven’t come to my store to buy this for several months.”

Aunt Gu looked at Zhou You, who was scanning a QR code to pay, and said, "And you're here to buy medicine from me now, did you bring your girlfriend home to meet your parents today?"

"This one……"

Zhou You opened his mouth, then hesitated, "...It's a bit complicated. Let's talk to Aunt Gu about it another time."

After he finished speaking, he took a few quick steps outside, then stopped, cautiously asking, "Aunt Gu, can I ask you for a favor?"

"You said."

"Aunt Gu, please don't tell anyone that I came to buy medicine today."

Aunt Gu was clearly a little surprised, but after thinking about it, she nodded in agreement, "Okay."

Zhou You then walked out of the pharmacy with peace of mind. He went outside the pharmacy and handed the ibuprofen in his hand to Ning Moxin.

Ning Moxin gave him an OK sign, holding the Nongfu Spring water she had bought from the nearby shop in one hand and the medicine in the other, and walked towards Yun Daidai.

On the way, she very carefully unpacked the package, squeezed out several capsules, and threw them, along with the box, into the nearby trash can.
