Chapter 13: The First Night at the Villa

It looked like Lu Zhen had not arrived yet. Leng Pan dropped the food containers on the table and sat on the sofa to wait.

This was her first time here and she didn't know where to start. So, she could only wait for the owner to guide her.

While she waited, Leng Pan took out her phone to browse the internet. An add suddenly popped up advertising a new herbal toothpaste.

Looking at the ad, she wondered if she had bought enough daily necessities supplies to last for a long time.

She had been buying so many things all at once that she couldn't keep track of them.

Even though she had marked everything she bought on her list, she would forget some things.

Now looking at the advertisement, she decided to buy daily necessities. Even if she already had them, there was no harm in having more. She could use them later as currency to trade with others.

So, she logged in to a popular online store and started ordering things for express delivery.

She bought fifty boxes of toothpaste. She made sure to buy a variety, not just one brand or one type.

Each box had a hundred pieces of 160g of toothpaste. Thus, she knew that one box could last for a couple of years.

She also bought twenty boxes of liquid detergent, twenty boxes of bars of soap. Shower gel for both male and female. These were bought in different flavors and textures, including scrubbing shower gels.

There were also twenty boxes of mouthwash. Ten boxes of toothbrushes and shaving cream.

She didn't forget that her husband was obsessed with cleanliness and wouldn't be able to endure being untidy even in the apocalypse.

And thus, her shopping spree expanded to shaving razors.

She didn't forget about feminine products. She was sure she had bought them but buying more wouldn't hurt. After all, money would have no use very soon.

Thinking of how money won't even be as useful as tissue paper, she added hundred boxes of sanitary pads in the cart, panty liners, intimate wash, hand sanitizers, wiping alcohol, cooling mist sprays, and dry and normal shampoo.

She also included hair oil and conditioners to the cart.

Looking at her shopping cart that came to a total of over two hundred thousand yuan, she was satisfied and relaxed a bit.

Since it was express delivery, the items would arrive tomorrow and the day after. So, she would have to spend some time in her parents' villa to receive the packages.

Thinking of this, she decided to go pick up the food from uncle Li around lunch time and then collect her modified hummer from the car dealership.

The foods ordered from other restaurants could be picked up in the evening.

Leng Pan was so engrossed in her online shopping spree that she didn't even hear a car pull up outside the villa or the front door open.

At this moment, Lu Zhen was standing inside the room watching the little woman who was lost in her own world.

He wondered what she was doing to be so engrossed that she didn't seem to know what was happening around her.

She was so beautiful that Lu Zhen just wanted to go over and hug her tightly.

This was something he had fantasized about for years. He was happy that she had agreed to marry him. In that case, he had a legitimate reason to hug her.

His gaze was so fiery that even the lost Leng Pan felt it. She looked up and was met with a dark gaze that seemed to want to devour her alive.

Realizing that she was looking at him, Lu Zhen reigned his passion and walked towards her after changing his shoes.

"You are here." He started.

"Yes, I thought you got off work early." She had indeed thought that he would be home early.

"Sorry to keep you waiting. I have to pick up my mother and brother at the airport tomorrow. So I wanted to do the extra work and free up some time."

Lu Zhen was indeed busy not only because he was picking up his mother and brother tomorrow, but also because he wanted to complete most of his work for the month so that he could have time to spend with his wife.

Leng Pan who knew about his obsession with her of course could guess this but didn't expose him.

" Where am I staying?" She asked this question because she wanted to take a shower first before having dinner.

Upon hearing her question, Lu Zhen realized that she had probably not found the bedroom and had been waiting in the living room all this time.

" I am sorry you had to wait here. You could have gone to the bedroom after arriving. This is your home too and there is no place you are restricted. You can go anywhere."

Leng Pan was happy to hear that because it meant that the man didn't plan to keep any secrets from her.

Thinking of this, she wondered if she should tell him about the space and the apocalypse.

She had been debating about this question for a while.

At this moment, she finally made a decision.

As they talked and had different thoughts, they arrived at the second floor and Lu Zhen opened the door to the master bedroom.

He was carrying Leng Pan's bag for her. She had come with only one medium sized bag that didn't seem to hold a lot of things.

He decided that he would order clothes and shoes for her the next day to fill the closet in the master bedroom.

"The bathroom is the one with a frost door and the closet is next to it. You can take a shower and come down for dinner. I'll go cook first." Lu Zhen explained and offered to cook after showing Leng Pan around.

" There's dinner on the table. I bought it from a restaurant but it's probably already cold, so just heat it up. No need to cook." She still felt sorry for him. He had worked overtime and then get home to cook.

It was too tiring.

" Okay, I'll heat up the food. Come down after you are done with your bath." Lu Zhen said as he turned around and left the bedroom.

He was actually not as calm as he appeared to be. The love of his life was now standing inside his bedroom and about to take a shower in his bathroom. He couldn't help his imagination running wild.

He decided to leave in a hurry because he didn't want to do something that might scare his delicate wife away.
