Chapter 188 Heartbeat

The place where Wang Shan took Lin Qiu was the cosmetics counter on the first floor.

It’s not like Lin Qiu hasn’t been here before, but he usually just watched from afar, thinking that these things were of no use to him.

She is not completely unaware of skin care. She has a complete set of Avon products on her dressing table, and she carefully applies skin care products before going to bed.

However, whether in the previous life or now, up to now, Lin Qiu has never put on makeup, even when she got married.

At that time, the mall had a complete range of cosmetics and numerous brands, and there were one or two young makeup salesgirls standing behind each counter.

The clothes Lin Qiu was wearing looked quite expensive. As soon as the mother and daughter walked to a counter, a little girl came up to them and greeted them.

"Hello, what can I do for you?"

Lin Qiu looked at the prices of cosmetics on the counter. Although he didn't show it on his face, he couldn't help but be shocked in his heart. How could such small bottles and jars be so expensive?

Just as she was about to pull her daughter back, she heard Wang Shan ask, "Sister, I heard that you can try on makeup here, is that true?"

The salesgirl didn't expect that he was here to get his makeup done. Although she felt a little disappointed, she still smiled and nodded, "Yes."

"Then can you help my mother put on makeup?" Wang Shan looked over hopefully.

Seeing that there were no customers at the moment, the salesgirl replied directly: "Sure, please sit over here for a while."

Not long after, the salesgirl came over with a pile of bottles and cans.

At first, she didn't rush to apply it on Lin Qiu's face. Instead, she slightly raised her chin and looked at him carefully, making Lin Qiu a little evasive.

Then he picked up an eyebrow trimmer and trimmed Lin Qiu's messy eyebrows into a beautiful shape. He then used a wet tissue to wipe her face clean before he began to apply the lotion on her face layer by layer.

The salesgirl gently pressed the makeup egg on Lin Qiu's face and told Lin Qiu carefully: "Your skin is a little dry, you need more water."

She also said, "Your skin is fair, so you should choose a fair shade of foundation."

After more than twenty minutes, a simple makeup was completed.

"How do you think it is?" The salesgirl wiped her hands and pushed the mirror in front of Lin Qiu.

Lin Qiu looked at the unfamiliar face inside and felt inexplicably ashamed.

"Mom, you are so beautiful!" Wang Shan stretched out her hand to touch Lin Qiu's face, but was afraid of ruining her makeup, so she quickly retracted her hand, but kept her eyes on her.

The salesgirl also said: "You have a good foundation, so you will look good with a little makeup."

Lin Qiu's face became a little hot due to the praise. He looked at the person in the mirror carefully, then stood up somewhat uncomfortably.

"Mom, I feel like you're a completely different person after you put on makeup. You look especially energetic! Why don't you buy some cosmetics and learn how to put on makeup?" Wang Shan said, holding Lin Qiu's hand.

"Hey, it's not as exaggerated as you say!" Lin Qiu lowered his eyelids, "Besides, I don't know how to do it, so forget it."

"Why not learn if you don't know how? It's vacation now anyway, I'll study it with you." Wang Shan tried her best to persuade.

To be honest, Lin Qiu himself was also a little tempted.

Everyone loves beauty, not to mention that Lin Qiu is a woman, a mature woman in her 30s. How could she be indifferent to becoming more beautiful?

Just like that, Lin Qiu reluctantly bought a bottle of liquid foundation, a pressed powder and an eyebrow pencil at the salesgirl's suggestion.

I also bought a lipstick, but I didn’t buy the bright red one recommended by the salesgirl. Instead, I chose a bean paste color one.

The four items cost nearly 800 yuan in total. If it were the previous Lin Qiu, she would definitely not be willing to spend that much, but after her change of mind, she took out her wallet and paid directly.

The salesgirl said to her directly: "If you want to put on makeup in the future, just come here and find me."

Lin Qiu changed into sneakers, drove the car, and returned with Wang Shan's bags full of things.

After parking the car, at Wang Shan's request, she put on high heels and walked home carrying the shopping bags.

On the way, I also met Brother Adada, who came with a briefcase to arrange the opening of the community swimming pool.

Ada was greatly surprised to see Lin Qiu's new look. The last time he saw Lin Qiu, she was still wearing a red T-shirt, jeans, sneakers, and no makeup. She was just an ordinary woman.

Lin Qiu is now wearing light makeup, and her white shirt and purple skirt make her look like a lilac. If he hadn't seen Wang Shan beside her, he would have thought she was someone else.

"Xiao Lin, are you going shopping?"

Lin Qiu smiled and replied: "Yes, Brother Adada, long time no see!"

"Hello, uncle!" Wang Shan also called out.

"Okay!" Ada waved his hand. "The sun is so hot, you should go back quickly. I'll ask Aren to bring you to my house for dinner in a few days!"

Lin Qiu agreed and continued walking towards home.

After returning home, Lin Ting, who was sitting on the sofa watching TV, looked up and saw the refreshing Lin Qiu. He couldn't help but teasing: "Where did this big star come from? Maybe he entered the wrong door?"

"Dad!" Lin Qiu glared at Lin Ting in reproach.

Lin Ting was not angry, he laughed, "It turned out to be my Qiuqiu! I almost didn't recognize her, I thought she was some big star."

After saying that, he walked over and looked Lin Qiu up and down, "Yes, with this kind of dress, my daughter is no worse than the stars on TV!"

Zhou Qing heard the noise, took a spatula, poked his head out of the kitchen, took a look, and then couldn't bear to look away, "Your father is right this time, you look like a star on TV when you dress like this, don't you?"

"Mom, why are you here to laugh at me? I'm just a country woman, how can I compare with those celebrities?" Lin Qiu blushed when her parents teased her.

"I'm not making fun of you. You look really good dressed like this!" Zhou Qing looked at his daughter with satisfaction.

"I won't talk to you anymore. I'm going back to my room to put my things away!" Lin Qiu fled in panic.

The other three people looked at her panicked back and couldn't help laughing.

"Oh my! My food is about to burn!"

Zhou Qing suddenly smelled a burnt smell and quickly ran to the kitchen.

The sight of her running to the kitchen with a spatula in hand made Lin Ting and Wang Shan, grandfather and granddaughter, unable to stop laughing.

When Wang Xiuren got home from get off work, his eyes lit up when he saw the graceful purple figure sitting on the sofa.

When Lin Qiu heard the sound of the door opening and turned half of his body to reveal his face and looked at him, Wang Xiuren was stunned.

Heart-pounding!

He felt like he was back to the first time he met Lin Qiu. His heart was about to jump out of his chest and his throat was so dry that it felt like smoking.

"Why are you standing there like an idiot? Come in! It's time to eat."

Lin Qiu was startled by his hungry eyes. He glared at him, then turned around, stood up and walked towards the dining table.

Wang Xiuren was stared at so hard that his whole body felt numb and he followed Lin Qiu like a puppet.
