Jin Liwei finished putting on pyjamas and then noticed his Xiulan looking at something in his suitcase. He walked closer and his eyes almost popped out when he saw the sheer number of condoms.
He cursed his butler in his head. Did his butler raid a store or something? Why did he pack so many?
While he was still in Toronto, he called his butler at home to pack luggage for him, explaining that he was going to stay at his girlfriend’s place after he returned to the country.
The poor butler was so shocked that he wasn’t able to react in time. He wanted to confirm whether the Master really said “girlfriend” and not “boyfriend”. Then he almost had a heart attack when Jin Liwei instructed him to include condoms with the luggage.
Jin Liwei hung up before the butler could clarify the instructions. Not knowing what kind of condoms his master wanted, the butler ordered almost every kind. His master could just test everything and then tell him later on what suited him and his mysterious girlfriend the best, so that he could just buy more of it next time.
Iris looked at him, holding a couple of boxes in her hands. “Explain.”
He wanted to tell her that it wasn’t his idea, that it was his butler’s, but was worried that it would trigger her and snap at him again. She might accuse him of pushing the blame on other people, so he decided to just own it up.
“It’s for us to use, baby.”
“I know, but why do you have so many? And there are so many kinds. What are these flavours? Banana? Papaya? Seaweed? Spaghetti? Chili pepper? Are you supposed to eat these? Do you have a condom fetish? You’re so weird.”
His mind blanked for a couple of seconds before heat crawled up his neck. “Of course not! And we’re not going to use those other freaky flavours.”
He almost told her that if she didn’t like condoms, then he was fine without them. If she wanted babies this early, he wouldn’t mind. But he was able to stop himself in time. He had a feeling that she would explode on him again if he told her this. He cleared his throat.
“Hmm…” She looked at the boxes in the suitcase again. She was very curious about them. However, she wasn’t really in the mood to investigate at the moment. “Put them in the bedside table drawer. I’m returning to bed. I’m tired.”
“Okay, baby. Rest up. I’ll take care of the rest.” Jin Liwei immediately went to work.
She walked away but then stopped, turned around and said, “You haven’t shown me your STD test results yet. No sex until then.”
He froze. “Baby, I already told you I don’t have STD. I’ve never had sex with anyone before you.”
“It’s just a simple test. Just do it and give me the results. How hard is that? You don’t want to do it? Fine, I guess we’ll both be virgins in this relationship then! Burn those useless condoms since we won’t need them!” She huffed and marched off, leaving him no chance to reply.
Jin Liwei was speechless. He stood there like an idiot for about a minute before grabbing his phone. He dialed and waited.
“Hello?” Wang Yingjie’s voice answered on the other end of the line.
“Second Brother, I need to get tested for STDs.”
“Ah? Third Brother, is this really you?”
Wang Yingjie was silent for a few seconds. “Why do you need to get tested? Do you think you contracted anything? If so, this is serious.”
“No.” Jin Liwei explained to his friend that his girlfriend, Xiulan, required him to get tested before allowing them to have sex.
Wang Yingjie laughed. “Wise girl. Alright, I understand. I’m a surgeon so this isn’t my area of expertise, but I’ll refer you to a colleague of mine. He’s discreet so you don’t have to worry. When do you want to get tested?”
“As soon as possible.”
“Alright. I’ll call you when everything’s set up.”
“Thanks.” Jin Liwei hesitated but decided to go for it. He cleared his throat. “Second Brother, is it normal for women to be angry all the time when they’re on their, er, period? Like…their personality is so different from normal.”
“Well, try bleeding from your organ for a few days and see if you don’t feel angry too.”
“Oh.”
Wang Yingjie chuckled. “Yes, it’s normal. It’s due to hormone imbalances. Just be patient with her. It’ll pass. And maybe she’s also feeling stressed right now. I heard what happened to her last night. Don’t add to her stress.”
“No problem. Anytime. Let’s hang out with the others sometime. You can bring Xiulan again if she wants to.”
The brothers hung up.
Jin Liwei gathered all the condom boxes in a plastic bag and walked out of the closet. He found his baby girl on the bed being massaged by Yi Mei. The housekeeper fussed and lectured about the traditional ways to take care of the body during menstruation.
Good thing the plastic bag wasn’t translucent. If the old housekeeper saw what was inside it, there was a high chance that she would go crazy and murder the lusty brat.
He placed the plastic on the floor. At least he had the sense not to transfer the contents from the plastic to the bedside drawer in front of the housekeeper. He would do it later when she left.
“Teach me how to massage her,” he asked the housekeeper.
Yi Mei paused, not knowing how to respond. She turned to the Young Miss.
“Go ahead.” Iris sighed. “If he wants to learn, let him.”
Yi Mei had no choice but to teach the lusty brat.
