Chapter 4, Shopping
He nodded slightly, walked out from beside the shelf, took a step, turned his head to glance at Yu Wan, and said, "The car is coming over."
Oh right, didn't you say last time that new neighbors were moving in across from you? How is it? Male or female, are they friendly? They must be quite wealthy, right? Those who live in your building are either rich or of high status.
... ...
Everyone saw the message written by Wei Wan: "I forgot to update yesterday due to an urgent matter. As compensation, I will post two updates today." ... Additionally, here is a pitiful photo of His Highness ...
Yu Wan rolled her eyes at her, "Sister, I am going to work, not to chase after stars. If I wanted an autograph, I would lose face."
Are you brave enough to go ask for an autograph
I apologize, I did not bring a pen
Having walked quite a distance, the figures of the two girls were no longer visible. Yu Wan furrowed her brows and said, "Mr. Shen, who are you?"
Wait a moment... Yu Wan's mind turned, wondering why others even knew his surname
Yu Wan arrived at the supermarket, stored her bag, and then took out her phone to call Shen Qingzhou
Yu Wan looked at the two little girls with flushed faces, then glanced at the pale-faced Shen Qingzhou, feeling utterly perplexed
Hey, are you still trying to act noble with me
Your brother will definitely not hesitate to beat you up after hearing this
Shen Qingzhou stood in front of the freezer, his brows slightly furrowed, waiting for something
Two people walked into the snack area. Yu Wan stuffed packages of biscuits, chocolate pies, and White Rabbit milk candies into the shopping cart, while Shen Qingzhou pushed the cart, watching Yu Wan's actions with great confusion. He could not understand why some people found such junk food so enjoyable.
Yu Wan thought for a moment, "The first time I saw him, I felt inexplicably that he was good-looking, just like the male protagonist in my novel."
Yes
At night, Yu Wan sat at her desk revising 'Wolf Yan' while video chatting with her only friend since childhood, Jian Yunong, who was far away abroad
"So handsome?! How handsome?! How does he compare to your brother?" Jian Yunong said with an excited expression
This question seemed a bit strange, and Yu Wan was aware of it. However, she was indifferent to the affairs outside her window; apart from knowing that her brother was a big star, she was completely unaware of other celebrities.
Jian Yunong did not hear clearly and said to herself, "Such a handsome neighbor, and he is wealthy, tsk tsk, you little girl are really lucky. Hey, if you manage to get close to him, be sure to let me know."
Can it not be so casual
Yu Wan, "... ... won't kill you."
As Yu Diandian made her appearance, public outrage finally subsided considerably. Yu Wan let out a sigh of relief and, shaking off her fatigue, devoted herself to typing with renewed vigor
Shen Qingzhou reached out to take it, quickly wrote his name on the paper, and then returned it to the girl
Yu Wan had just thrown a bag of chips into the car when she turned her head and noticed two girls not far away whispering to each other, their glances frequently darting towards Shen Qingzhou. Yu Wan glanced back at Shen Qingzhou and muttered, "It seems that being handsome means one has to be admired wherever they go"
What a surprise to see you here, do you live nearby
There was a pause on the other end of the phone, "Alright."
He is reluctant to part with it
She took a large box, and as Yu Wan could not carry it, she simply placed it into the shopping cart pushed by Shen Qingzhou
The drums of urgency are beating too loudly. Yesterday, Yu Wan was so engrossed in working on the script that she completely forgot to update. Yu Wan propped her chin on her hand, contemplating how to explain to a group of eager children waiting for their needs to be met
Friendly? Yu Wan raised her eyebrows slightly and murmured, "As long as I don't freeze to death, it should be fine..."
Jian Yunong finally finished her noodles and let out a loud burp. Yu Ge glanced at her, and through the screen, it seemed he could smell the aroma of the old pickled cabbage coming from her side.
Yu Wan, I can tell you that when the time comes and I join the film crew, you must help me get an autograph from whichever big star I like.
Yu Wan pressed her lips together, seeing that he was unwilling to answer, so she had no choice but to stop asking questions and hurriedly took Shen Qingzhou to buy ingredients
Hello. A slightly heavy sound quality, a pleasure for the eardrums
"Is this love at first sight?" Yu Wan pondered seriously, "If that counts, then I suppose it is."
The call has been connected
He then signaled the cashier to settle the bill. Yu Wan obediently stood to the side, thinking to herself, you have the money, you have the final say
Yu Wan's fingers paused on the keyboard, and the image of Shen Qingzhou's cool and ethereal face floated through her mind. "Yes, he moved in. He's a man, and quite handsome."
I kicked over the rice bowl in front of me with one foot, and if you come out late, I guarantee I will kill you
Yu Wan looked at the two of them in surprise, a signature? Otherwise, it's so exaggerated that even the handsome ones want a signature?
After thinking for half a day, suddenly a jolt of realization struck me; it seemed that I had forgotten to update "The Last Pendulum" yesterday. Yu Wan felt a drop of cold sweat on her forehead as she dejectedly returned to her computer. Upon opening the author dashboard, she discovered a pile of comments following the article.
Because she remembered that she promised Shen Qingzhou to cook for Hong Dou yesterday, Yu Wan went to the kitchen today very punctually to prepare the ingredients. However, as soon as she opened the refrigerator, she realized that the ingredients seemed to be insufficient.
I dare not ... ... I heard that he does not like to be disturbed in private, why don't you go?
Sunlight streamed in through the floor-to-ceiling window, and Yu Wan sat up from the bed with a bewildered expression. She looked at the computer with its screen still lit and suddenly felt that there was something she had not finished doing
No, at the supermarket
Hey, look quickly
From a distance, one can see the figure of Shen Qingzhou, tall and slender, resembling a picture from a magazine in every way.
After a long while, Yu Wan ran to the guest and study room and found Yu Diandian sleeping comfortably. She called out to wake him, "Your Highness, please, show a pitiful expression."
After the shopping was completed, Shen Qingzhou pushed the cart to the checkout counter. Yu Wan quickly prepared to retrieve her own items, as their belongings were mixed together, making it necessary to sort through them carefully, which would take some time
Jian Yunong was taken aback; she thought it was just a joke, but she didn't expect that Yu, who had always existed only in words, actually had that intention. "Are you serious?"
Yu Wan, "Then I will give it a try"
"When did I say I wanted to buy materials from you?" Shen Qingzhou's voice dropped a few degrees
You can just bully your brother as much as you want. Jian Yunong shook her head and said, "However, Yu Wan, it seems that you really like this neighbor. It's rare for a super homebody like you to take an interest in someone. By the way, how is he? Is he friendly towards you? Has he given you a welcome gift as a new neighbor to get closer to you?"
Yes
You promised daily updates, you deceived me, 555555
Yu Wan let out a sound, "I will do my best"
Do you have something to attend to
Shen Qingzhou originally had little patience for this matter; if it weren't for the issue with Hongdou, he would never have followed someone around the supermarket. He responded somewhat perfunctorily.
Yu Wan hung up the phone, a hint of a smile spilling from the corners of her mouth
Mr. Shen, could you please provide a signature...
The photo features Yu Diandian, a beloved pet often seen on Weibo. However, in today's picture, it appears exceptionally pitiful
Jian Yunong, "Your brother is a busy person, how could he have time for such trivial matters"
And in this lying down, I unknowingly fell asleep, and when I woke up, the sky was already bright.
Shen Qingzhou directly interrupted her, "I will pay, consider it your salary for today"
Yu Diandian had just woken up, her eyes still glistening with tears, when Yu Wan swiftly took a photo
Jian Yunong was taken aback, "Well, Yu Wan, please don't tell me that you still engage in such unrealistic tricks as love at first sight?"
Yu Wan withdrew her gaze and said, "Are you just going to buy these?"
Just as I was about to leave this section of shelves, the two girls finally pushed and shoved their way over.
Yu Wanbian walked towards the supermarket while calling Shen Qingzhou, intending to remind him that the meal delivery would be a bit late today
So handsome, even more handsome up close
Is this milk tasty
If you want a signature, it's more convenient to go directly to my brother. Why are you looking for me? I will only be a minor screenwriter in the future, ok
Mr. Shen. Yu Wan walked over and took a glance at his shopping cart. Imported mineral water, imported milk, imported convenience food... In any case, everything is top-notch. This supermarket is specifically prepared for the homeowners here. There are not many people in the supermarket, but the selection is very complete, and there is also a wide variety of top-quality foreign foods.
Shen Qingzhou did not answer her either, glancing at her with his light brown eyes, which were calm and undisturbed, "The food with red beans, hurry up."
Oh. Yu Wan reacted a beat late and followed along, turning back to look at the two girls as she walked. Those two must be so excited looking at that signed paper that their parents wouldn't even recognize them
Where is everyone? Why has there been a break in updates today?
Yes, we are supposed to buy the materials together
Mr. Shen, where are you
"Then wait for me a moment, I will be there shortly," said Yu Wan, and without waiting for Shen Qingzhou to respond, she hurriedly hung up the phone.
Speaking of which, she hasn't been to the supermarket for quite some time, and the snacks at home are almost all gone. With this thought in mind, Yu Wan changed her clothes, grabbed her bag, and prepared to go to the supermarket within the community to buy some items
This is the last bowl of old jar that I brought, Yu Wan, please send me a box tomorrow
Author, are you okay? Have you been kidnapped? Huh?!
Yu Wan smiled and casually took a few rows of Yakult from the freezer, grabbed a few cans of banana milk, and finally paused in front of the brand of milk that Shen Qingzhou had picked up.
I do not dare either
As Yu Wan walked in, he looked around for his figure, ignoring Shen Qingzhou's rather unfriendly tone, and said softly, "Are you sure you don't want to see what the red beans are actually eating?"
Yu Wan said, "Mr. Shen, are you at home?"
The other party was silent for a few seconds, "Beverage area."
Shen Qingzhou's gaze lingered on her calm face for a moment, as if he wanted to say something, but ultimately he silently averted his eyes
The day before yesterday left me anxious, as I eagerly awaited today's update
That's great, I am also going to the supermarket now. Because there are not enough supplies at home, I need to go buy some. I was just about to tell you that the red beans will be eaten later.
Where can I buy things made with red beans
Five minutes later, the book fans saw that Wei Wan's Weibo had been updated
"Supermarket?" Yu Wan asked unexpectedly, "Is it this supermarket in the community?"
Roll, roll, roll
After finishing a video call with Jian Yunong, Yu Wan spent several more hours working on the script, followed by a brief online video meeting with two screenwriters. After it concluded, Yu Wan was so exhausted that she threw her computer aside and collapsed onto the bed.
"It's alright, it's alright, we brought it." One of the little girls quickly took out a pen and a piece of paper, trembling as she handed them to Shen Qingzhou.
"Wait for me, I'll take you there. For now, I just need to buy a few things for myself. You don't mind, do you?" Yu Wan tilted her head to look at him, while Shen Qingzhou kept his gaze straight ahead, "Whatever."
Yu Wan smiled and said, "My brother is not the same type, of course I prefer to look at him. I like the appearance of my neighbor more, after all, I have been looking at my brother for over twenty years and have grown tired of it."
Yu Wan nodded slightly, as she could not quite understand people who come to the supermarket but do not buy any snacks
