Chapter 373 - How Many Girlfriends Do You Have?

Before Gu Zheng could speak, Qiao Xi said with a trembling and shy voice, "Do you understand now? I'm asking you for a favor because I want to ask if you can help me get… sanitary pads?"

Gu Zheng: "…"

The corners of the man's mouth twitched. "Where?"

Qiao Xi replied anxiously, "There's a pink box under the cabinet in my room. Just take one."

Gu Zheng did not hesitate at all and went to her room. A few minutes later, he returned to the study. "There's none left."

"Huh?" Qiao Xi was instantly stunned! It couldn't be so coincidental, right?!

"Really? I usually put them in that box? Not a single one is left? Why are they all gone? What a coincidence, haha…"

She laughed dryly, looking very awkward. Gu Zheng also realized that things were troublesome now.

However, before he could speak, Qiao Xi begged. "Gu Zheng…"

The corners of the man's mouth twitched slightly. He felt the veins on his forehead jump. He suddenly had a bad feeling.

Immediately after, Qiao Xi suddenly said in a flirtatious tone, "Dear Senior~ Cutie Ah Zheng, can you help me buy some? There's a supermarket nearby. You can drive there and come back. It'll be quick!"

Gu Zheng thought for a moment. "Why don't we get Song—"

"No! We can't get Song Shiyu to go!" Qiao Xi interrupted in horror.

"It won't be good for him to do this kind of thing! Besides, Song Shiyu is too talkative. If news of this gets out, I won't be able to live in Longwan Residential anymore! I'll be very embarrassed as Mrs. Gu!"

Qiao Xi retorted righteously, "If you get Song Shiyu to buy it, I'll ignore you! I want you to buy it! Are you going or not?!"

Gu Zheng was stunned for a few seconds before sighing helplessly. "…"

He knocked on the bathroom door, then pushed the door open a crack. He closed his eyes and walked in, then placed a box on the sink beside him.

The man turned his face away to hide his red cheeks. His voice was hoarse. "Wait, I'll be back soon."

Qiao Xi's face was red as she hummed softly. After he left, Qiao Xi reached out to take the box. She opened it to see that it was her phone and some wet tissues.

He was probably afraid that she would be afraid alone. She would feel more at ease with her phone.

Qiao Xi was slightly touched.

…

Longwan Residential was surrounded by high-end supermarkets. They needed membership cards, and the prices were high, so there were not many customers.

After Gu Zheng entered, he walked straight to the sanitary pad section and encountered difficulties.

President Gu, who could guide the way in business wars, was now stumped by the issue of choosing sanitary napkins.

W-Which one should he buy?

At this moment, the shop assistant walked over. "Hello, Sir. May I help you? This is for night use and also for day use. What's the length you're looking for? If you're not too sure, why don't you buy one of all kinds? Using them up shouldn't be a problem."

Gu Zheng nodded and looked at the shelves in front of him. He then said a shocking statement, "Then get them all for me."

The shop assistant was stunned for a few seconds before her eyes widened. Buy them all?

She looked terrified and asked in confusion, "How many girlfriends do you have?"

He was living in Longwan Residential and was so handsome. He was really a domineering president in real life. He must have many women by his side!

…

Ten minutes later, Qiao Xi tidied herself up and walked out of the bathroom.

Gu Zheng had already instructed the butler to boil chicken soup and prepare red date ginger water. She felt warm after drinking a cup.

When Qiao Xi saw Gu Zheng, her face instantly flushed red as she said with embarrassment, "Gu Zheng, when you went to buy that, no one laughed at you, right?"

Gu Zheng suddenly recalled the shop assistant's words and was stunned for a few seconds. He replied indifferently, "No."

Qiao Xi observed his expression and asked probingly, "You won't be unhappy, right? I didn't have a choice either! I can't let others buy it for me!"

Actually, she was a little pleased when she ordered Gu Zheng to buy sanitary pads. She had always thought that it was very amusing to have a guy do that, but after thinking about it, this matter might be unprecedented for Gu Zheng.. It was more troublesome than any business war.
