Chapter 346: Chapter 346 He’s My Uncle

He Nan carried her downstairs; fortunately, it was working hours, so there were not many people outside. Apart from the gatekeeper, they didn’t run into anyone else.

Shen Mianmian sat in the passenger seat, not daring to move around. She was afraid of dirtying the car again.

He Nan got into the driver’s seat without a word and drove away from the factory.

Li Yue and Ruan Yiyang came out of the workshop just in time to see him driving away.

"Where is Brother Nan going?" Ruan Yiyang asked curiously.

"Do you even need to ask?" Li Yue gave him a look that implied you’re not too bright, "He’s obviously taking Little Mianmian home."

Brother Nan is really good to that girl.

But then again, he also likes her quite a bit. Sometimes he would wonder why his parents didn’t have a cute little sister like her back then.

His family has good genes; they should have had more kids.

The conclusion was that his dad must have ’slacked off’.

He Nan took Shen Mianmian straight to the city’s shopping mall and bought her a pair of pants. He then took her to buy a few packs of sanitary napkins, although Shen Mianmian initially only wanted to buy one pack.

But when it came time to pay, he told the store owner to pack up five packs.

The store owner’s surprised look was as if he suspected their family owned a mine.

In this era, only people with money at home would not hesitate to use these—sanitary napkins were available only in the large department stores, and you couldn’t find them in smaller shops because they were consumable goods and not cheap.

Many people were reluctant to use them.

Buying several packs at once was indeed quite rare...

After buying the sanitary napkins, he took her to the restroom to change her clothes. As they passed an underwear shop, Shen Mianmian stopped.

At this point, Shen Mianmian didn’t know the meaning of embarrassment anymore. She gritted her teeth and deliberately acted very calm, saying, "Big Brother He, I want to buy two sets of underwear."

He Nan paused in his steps and with an expressionless ’hmm’ gave his consent.

With permission, Shen Mianmian went into the shop and randomly picked two sets of underwear. He Nan stepped forward silently to pay. The clerk was a pretty girl about seventeen or eighteen years old.

Seeing how handsome He Nan was, she couldn’t help but flush slightly and said, "Your brother is really nice." And very handsome too.

These days, men are thinner-skinned and many have strong notions of masculinity; those who accompany women to buy clothes are few and far between.

Shen Mianmian is quite young and couldn’t possibly be the girlfriend of a man, so the female shop assistant’s first thought was this man must be her brother.

Shen Mianmian was about to nod when she heard him say, "No."

Those short two words definitively cleared up their relationship.

"Huh?"

The shop assistant was stunned for a moment, her expression slowly changing.

Not the brother?

Then why would he accompany this young girl to buy underwear? Could they actually be a couple?

Being a woman herself, Shen Mianmian immediately understood the shop assistant’s thoughts. Afraid of any misunderstanding, she blurted out, "He’s my uncle."

She didn’t know why He Nan had said he wasn’t her ’brother’, but since he had denied it, there must have been a reason.

He was six or seven years older than her; calling him ’uncle’ elevated the generational status, and she was not on the losing end.

At that moment, Shen Mianmian was completely unaware of the sudden darkening of He Nan’s face.

"Oh, he’s your uncle?"

The shop assistant’s face was once again covered with a smile as she handed Shen Mianmian the bag with the underwear and sneakily complimented,

"Your uncle is really handsome, like a big star from the TV dramas."

In all her years, she had never seen someone so handsome.
