The Only Normal Human In The Universe Chapter 34

He saw through Zhao Xinxin’s thoughts. Since it was impossible to reciprocate, he would not leave any hope for the other party.

In the past, Cheng Yang would have said nothing more, but seeing Zhao Xinxin’s eager attitude towards his big brother, he couldn’t help saying: “Big brother, if…… I mean, if there is someone who doesn’t mind your situation, then would you be willing…”

“No,” Cheng Yi replied without any hesitation, “I can’t drag them down.”

When he said this, An Yan’s bright smile flashed in Cheng Yi’s mind.

How could such a cute and charming little guy be dragged down by someone like him?

As soon as he thought of this, Cheng Yi instantly became angry, and the instrument he was holding in his hand broke.

Cheng Yang was taken aback and quickly remedied the situation: “Big …… Brother, please don’t be angry. It’s all my fault. I shouldn’t have said such a stupid thing. Don’t take it personally. “

How could I have forgotten and brought up this topic in front of my big brother! It was really too much!

Cheng Yi closed his eyes and said in a deep voice, “It’s not your fault. You can go out first.”

Cheng Yang had to leave with guilt.

After Cheng Yang left, Cheng Yi stood in the same place for a while before he finally let out a long sigh, while a firm light flashed in his eyes.

It was true that he had never thought of finding himself a partner before, let alone felt loneliness. But since he was already deeply moved, he would not give up so easily.

Besides, he had already seen hope, hadn’t he?

An Yan took Cheng Yi’s visit to his home for the weekend very seriously. He got up early on Sunday morning to make preparations.

He first cleaned the house carefully, put new sofa covers and table mats on the table, and even replaced the curtains. An Yan looked at the new living room and nodded in satisfaction.

After cleaning up the house, An Yan quickly left.

Although the appointed time was 6 p.m, he was afraid that there would be too many things to prepare and that it would be too late. So he had to prepare earlier.

An Yan first went to the supermarket to have a look around. The supermarket was an amazing place where many things could be bought, including things for food, drink, use, wear, and play. Everything was available.

An Yan did not hesitate to buy a bunch of fresh ingredients, including vegetables and meat, having recalled the meal at the Cheng house earlier. He must prepare a big meal to treat Cheng Yi tonight.

There was also fruit. Although some of the fruit Cheng Yi had given him earlier had not been eaten, it had been sitting there for two or three days after all, so An Yan could not afford to entertain his guest with it.

Apart from a few common fruits, An Yan also bought some fruits that he had never seen before so he could try them. They were said to have been brought over from other planets.

An Yan did not rush to leave the supermarket after buying these essential items. It was a rare trip out so he might as well have a good time shopping.

 An Yan bought two bags of nutritional supplements for An Mu in the nutritional products section. Due to the lack of money previously, they had been drinking the most ordinary nutritional supplements. They could only barely maintain the basic nutrition and energy requirements of the human body.

Now that he had made money, he obviously wanted to help An Mu take good care of her health.

When he reached the snack section, An Yan couldn’t resist and stuffed several kinds of snacks into his shopping cart. After thinking about it, he also bought a carton of fresh milk and yogurt.

Besides that, An Yan didn’t buy anything else.

It wasn’t that there was nothing else to buy; he just thought that since they would be moving soon, it would be a lot of trouble moving things if he bought a lot of them. He might as well wait until after they move.

With this in mind, An Yan was ready to go back home.

On his way back, he saw a bakery and bought a few more delicious-looking treats.

Well, he bought them for his guests, not because he had a craving.

Later on, he passed by a florist and bought a bouquet of delicate flowers that he intended to place in the living room.

He had seen Cheng Yi’s house like this before. It not only set off the living room in a brighter way, but also allowed the faint scent of flowers to float in the air. It was the equivalent of killing two birds with one stone.

An Yan then went home without any problems when he finished shopping for these things.

It was already past two in the afternoon when he arrived home, so he drank a packet of nutritional supplements for his lunch and then started to work.

He put the bouquet of flowers in a jar and sorted the large number of items he had bought at the supermarket. He picked out a few fruits and put them on a fruit tray after washing them.  Then it was time to prepare for tonight’s dinner.

It was only at this point that An Yan realised a very serious problem.

Although he had bought all the ingredients he needed, he didn’t know how to cook!

An Yan was in a dilemma. He had no choice but to go to the virtual internet to search for cooking tips.

He had randomly bought the vegetables and meat, so he could only search by the names of these ingredients. The search yielded quite a lot of results. He screened them according to the pictures of each dish, roughly selected several dishes, and began to study them.

An Yan sat in the living room and studied the recipes for awhile before reluctantly starting to work.

The process of washing the vegetables, cutting them up, and matching several dishes together was relatively easy, but the next steps left An Yan dumbfounded.

He had forgotten to buy the condiments!

An Mu had stir-fried vegetables a few times before, but she had never used something like condiments each time.

But there wasn’t a single strategy he found that didn’t require the use of condiments.

He had no choice but to put down his work and go to the supermarket to buy the condiments.

He was just about to leave when he heard the doorbell of his house ring. An Yan opened the monitoring screen and saw Cheng Yi standing at the door.

It was clearly just after four o’clock!

An Yan opened the door with surprise: “Senior, why are you here so early?”

Cheng Yi smiled lightly, “I was bored staying at home by myself, so I came over earlier. Am I not welcome? “

“Of course not,” An Yan shook his head, slightly embarrassed. “It’s just that…”

Cheng Yi raised his eyebrows and asked, “What’s wrong?”

An Yan saw Cheng Yi was carrying something in his hand, so he hurriedly gave way, “Nothing, senior, come in first.”

Even if he was going to buy condiments, he couldn’t turn his guest away, otherwise it would be too rude.

After entering the house, Cheng Yi placed the things he brought next to the sofa and said with a smile, “This is a little gift for you and auntie. I hope you will like it.”

An Yan’s eyes widened slightly, “Why would you still buy us things?”

It wasn’t that he didn’t know how to be polite. The original owner didn’t have any friends where he could buy gifts before going to their house. He also didn’t know much about human courtesies, which was why he was surprised and puzzled.

Cheng Yi smiled and said, “It’s as it should be. Besides, it’s not an expensive gift.”

An Yan recalled that he asked for Cheng Yi’s help but didn’t bring any gift when he went to his house. He instead had a rather sumptuous lunch, and he immediately blamed himself, “I am sorry, senior. I didn’t know that I should have prepared gifts in advance when I came to the Cheng family. Last time…”

Cheng Yi felt that An Yan’s attitude was a bit strange, but he didn’t think much about it. He now realised what he meant and couldn’t help but chuckle, “Those two times are certainly different.”

Previously, it was his intention to bring them closer together, so he took the initiative to invite him to his home. This time… he had fully researched the various hobbies of middle-aged women and was well prepared to leave a good impression on An Yan’s mother.

An Yan, however, misunderstood Cheng Yi’s thoughts. He nodded even more self-consciously: “That’s right, the two times are really different. Last time you obviously helped me so much. “

As a result, he didn’t buy any gifts and had a meal at Cheng’s house. The more he thought about it, the more he felt he had done wrong!

Cheng Yi did not want An Yan to continue worrying about this matter, so he smiled and asked, “Did I come too early and disturbed you?”

“No, I just forgot to buy condiments, so I was going out for a trip.” An Yan’s attention was instantly diverted, and he shook his head in embarrassment.

Cheng Yi paused for a moment and proposed, “Then why don’t I go shopping with you?”

“But you’re a guest ……” How could one ask a guest to go shopping with them?

Cheng Yi corrected, “But we’re also friends.”

An Yan was torn for a moment and finally nodded, “Alright, then I’ll trouble senior to accompany me on my trip.”

To An Yan, it was a bit rude to ask the other party to accompany him, but to Cheng Yi, such an opportunity was more than he could ask for.

To be able to go to the supermarket with the little one. It was a pleasant thing to do even if they didn’t buy anything.

So An Yan, who had gone just to buy some condiments, wandered through every section of the supermarket under Cheng Yi’s deliberate guidance. 

A similar situation happened at almost every section;

The snack section.

Cheng Yi: “What does Yan Yan think of this kind of biscuit? It looks like it’s delicious. “

An Yan drools: “Well, it does look like it’s quite tasty.”

Cheng Yi throws the snacks into the shopping cart and says, “Then let’s buy a packet and try it.”

Clothing section.

Cheng Yi: “What does Yan Yan think of this shirt? I think it suits you. “

An Yan hesitates, “I can’t tell, it seems okay?”

Cheng Yi asks the service robot to wrap the clothes and put them in the shopping cart, “Then buy one and try it on.”

Toy section.

Cheng Yi: “What does Yan Yan think of this mecha model? There seems to be quite a variety of functions. “

An Yan’s curious face: “Well, I haven’t played with mecha models before, so I don’t know if it’s good.”

Cheng Yi puts the mecha into the shopping cart, “Then let’s buy a set and try it out.”
