Chapter 250: Chapter 185 "Can’t Do Anything ElseSenior sister is fastidious about hygiene and cleanliness, insisting on showering and changing her underwear daily or she can’t sleep at night. But today, she didn’t bring a change of underwear. After dinner, Han Yu made an excuse to go buy toothpaste and toothbrushes for washing up and asked Old Qian to go to the shipyard to help bring Captain Wang back for dinner, while he himself pushed the light motorcycle ashore to go shopping with senior sister at Four Factory. Though Bailong Port has many shops, most are for tourists. Unlike Four Factory, which has five or six large and small textile factories and a high population of female workers, it has more stores selling women’s products. Just like always, Han Xiangning wrapped her arms around his waist and leaned on his shoulder. As they passed by a large truck, she muttered, "San’er, I also need to buy sanitary pads." If it were any other girl saying this, Han Yu would certainly feel embarrassed. But this was senior sister saying it, his future wife. Besides, this wasn’t the first time he had accompanied her to Four Factory to buy sanitary pads. Once, when she had a severe stomach ache and Sister Zhang Lan had taken the light motorcycle, he even rode a bicycle alone to help her buy them. Han Yu was momentarily stunned, then impulsively asked, "Did your period start?" Han Xiangning was somewhat embarrassed by the question and replied in a voice as soft as a mosquito, "Mhm." Han Yu persisted, "Does your stomach hurt?" "A little." "You should be resting at home if your stomach hurts. Why did you come to Bailong Port!" "I came to pick you up. Who knew you would have a major operation so soon." "I’ll cook you some ginger tea later when we get back. There’s just the right amount of brown sugar in the kitchen." The first time her period came in Bailong Port, she had terrible stomach pains, and he took care of her in this way, going out late at night to buy brown sugar and then cooking ginger tea. He can sometimes be very naive and even foolish, but in this regard, he’s quite mature. Perhaps it’s because he has an older sister at home, and he understands that girls have a few days like this every month. Thinking of the past and the thought of him going back to brew ginger tea for her later, her heart felt warm, and it seemed as though the pain in her stomach wasn’t as severe as before. Han Yu didn’t know what she was thinking and asked out of the blue, "Are you still buying the Anle brand?" Han Xiangning didn’t expect him to ask such a thing and chuckled, "You even know about Anle brand. You’ve really gained experience from buying them." "You used to use that brand, and there are Heng’an Industry ads on TV every day." "Why does a guy like you pay attention to these things? I really don’t know what’s on your mind all day." Searᴄh the NôvelFire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. He cared about her so much; this must be love. Han Xiangning playfully scolded him and cuddled closer, murmuring, "San’er, today Mengmeng made fun of me." "Why did she make fun of you?" "She teased about your age, that I’m older than you." Being a "reverse door son-in-law" isn’t considered an honorable thing in other people’s eyes. If people know you are a reverse door son-in-law, regardless of what you do, they will look down on you. But Han Yu didn’t feel it was shameful, not only because the person he would "marry" was the senior sister whom he dared not even think about or look in the eyes normally, but also because it was very common in the shipping company. Many neighbors, because they have no land or house onshore and have difficulty finding partners, choose to be a reverse door son-in-law, and quite a few have even settled ashore through this way. Even though his older brother is not a reverse door son-in-law, his situation isn’t much different; otherwise, he wouldn’t have had his marriage at his sister-in-law’s house. Having a boyfriend two years younger also subjects one to other people’s gossip. Han Yu didn’t expect that even her little sister would make fun of senior sister and felt very distressed, quickly turning back and saying, "She doesn’t understand, don’t mind her." Han Xiangning actually wasn’t afraid of being made fun of, and that wasn’t what she was alluding to. Seeing his intense reaction, she asked subconsciously, "What doesn’t she understand?" Worried about senior sister being made fun of, Han Yu has been finding reasons for them ever since their relationship was confirmed, boldly stating, "I read an article that said women have an average lifespan three years longer than men. If you marry someone several years older than yourself, you’d end up lonely and pitiful once your husband dies in old age. I’m two years younger, so we can grow old together, truly ’until death do us part,’ and I won’t die early and leave you sad and alone." That actually sounds quite reasonable! Han Xiangning laughed, hugging him and saying, "San’er, you’re so young and yet you think so far ahead." "I’m serious, I’m not joking with you." "Growing old together sounds nice." Han Xiangning closed her eyes, clung to him, and murmured, feeling his warmth, "Actually, Mengmeng didn’t tease you about being younger than me, but for being scared. She said you’re afraid of me, San’er, are you really scared of me?" "Not at all, I like you, we’re family now, how could I be afraid of you." "Really not scared?" "Not scared." Han Xiangning muttered, "But Mengmeng says you don’t even dare to kiss me." Han Yu laughed, showing a big grin, "Who says I don’t dare? I’ll brush my teeth when we get back." Han Xiangning was a bit lost by his sudden leap in thought, asking subconsciously, "Why brush your teeth?" "To kiss you, of course. I’m afraid my mouth might smell." "Hahaha." "What are you laughing at?" "You’re still scared of me." "I’m not scared of you. I’m worried you might not like it." "I was just saying, don’t overthink it, and certainly don’t take too many liberties." While Han Xiangning said that, her heart rippled with waves of emotion, quietly marveling where else she could find a boyfriend who always thinks of her first like this. He is not like Liang Xiaojun, who is so selfish. It seems like he likes Mengmeng, but in reality, he never considered whether Mengmeng would be happy in the future or not. Old Qian is currently helping to guard Boat 001 at the dock. After they finished their shopping and bought some fruits without daring to linger at Four Factory, they hurried back to the riverbank. The hot water was ready. Han Yu busied himself with brewing the ginger tea and told Han Xiangning to go wash up first.
