Bi Qiaoan felt a little better after being comforted like that. She nodded, "Okay then, please wait a moment."
Then, using my consciousness, I picked a few green-skinned walnuts in the space, took them to the kitchen, used a knife to cut off the outer green skin, put them into a juicer, and started it.
After a short wait, the greenish-black "juice" is freshly made.
Bi Qiaoan poured it into a paper cup, then found an unused brush and, using the luggage as cover, took it out of the space.
"What is this?" Shen Yanming frowned when he saw the grayish-green liquid.
"Good stuff!" Bi Qiaoan smiled. "First, wipe off the grime on your face, then I'll apply some of this juice to you."
Although Shen Yanming was full of questions, he obediently wiped his hands and face clean. He felt refreshed, but the towel was almost ruined.
Bi Qiaoan wasn't one to waste things; she simply put the dirty towel into her spatial storage, planning to clean it properly with her consciousness when she had some free time. But her immediate priority was to properly reshape Shen Yanming's face.
She lightly dipped a brush into the green walnut juice, then picked a spot that looked good to her and smeared it heavily on Shen Yanming's cheek, laughing as she said, "Okay!"
"So fast?" Shen Yanming was somewhat surprised, and he couldn't help but wonder, "What is all this? It's so amazing!"
"Green walnut juice is made by pressing the green outer skin of fresh walnuts. When it gets on the skin, it oxidizes and turns black, making it a natural plant dye," Bi Qiaoan explained.
Shen Yanming nodded, indicating that he had learned something. In the past, he would just throw the green walnuts into the storage area after each harvest, and he really didn't know that the green husks could have such a great use.
"How long can this last?" Shen Yanming asked.
Bi Qiaoan thought for a moment, "I don't know either. It will probably take half a month to a month. It may not be able to get rid of it before we return to Haishi, unless we take some special measures."
Bi Qiaoan's so-called special methods were things like vinegar and disinfectant, but Shen Yanming misunderstood them as spiritual spring water. He shook his head and said, "It's okay, this is fine. I might need to rely on this stuff to disguise myself and avoid trouble in the future."
Bi Qiaoan smiled and said, "As long as you're happy." Then she put the paper cups and brushes into her spatial storage and left the tent with Shen Yanming's help.
The two strolled slowly toward the temporary tent. When Zuo Xiangqun saw them, he quickly got two meals and put them there, while Li Sikai moved two seats inside, leaving the seats outside for Chen Bi and the other person.
As for Yuan Ruoxi, her eyes gleamed with lust as she watched the two approaching hand in hand in the distance. Her entire being was captivated by the tall, handsome figure in the night, and she kept thinking to herself, "Ah, those long legs, ah, that tall guy, I like him so much, I want him!"
Just as her heart was pounding and she was about to lose control of the wolf's claws, the couple finally stepped into the light.
Bang! It sounded like a heart breaking!
Yuan Ruoxi's smile froze on her face. She never expected that such a handsome man would have a large dark spot on his face! It was such a pity for his high nose bridge and sexy lips.
Ugh... I'm so heartbroken!
If she hadn't seen someone as exceptional as Tao Jianian, she might have been able to accept some of his shortcomings. But after seeing the best, Yuan Ruoxi was already wary of Shen Yanming's flaws.
Sighing inwardly, Yuan looked sadly at Tong Baobao, thinking that this little puppy was still more pleasing to the eye.
Because of some concerns, Shen Yanming and Bi Qiaoan were observing the people in the restaurant from a distance.
When they saw that the only woman inside had her eyes glued to Shen Yanming and couldn't be pried off, both of them felt a surge of worry.
Fortunately, the surprise and joy in the other person's eyes quickly turned into regret and disgust, which made both of them breathe a sigh of relief.
Shen Yanming helped Bi Qiaoan sit down, right next to Li Sikai and opposite Yuan Ruoxi.
Yuan Ruoxi was very unhappy because her beautiful fantasies had been shattered, and she kept poking at her rice with her chopsticks. Tong Xianbao tried to comfort her softly, but it didn't help much.
Li Sikai rolled his eyes, ignoring the person causing trouble. He looked at Shen Yanming and asked in surprise, "What happened to your face? It was fine during the day..."
Li Sikai wanted to say, "It was fine during the day," but Shen Yanming stopped him, saying, "Your face was covered in black mud during the day, which probably covered the mark, so you didn't see it."
Shen Yanming was looking at Li Sikai when he spoke, but out of the corner of his eye he caught a glimpse of Yuan Ruoxi's eyes, which went from bright to dim again, and he couldn't help but give himself a thumbs up for his cleverness.
Of course, Li Sikai did not miss the little expression on someone's face. He nodded knowingly without saying anything, but instead secretly gave Shen Yanming a thumbs-up with his finger under the table.
He thought to himself, "Those who haven't been tempted by spatial abilities and lost themselves are truly admirable!"
Shen Yanming didn't know what the other person was thinking, but he still nodded politely.
Seeing everyone seated, Zuo Xiangqun hurriedly placed the prepared dinner in front of them and said, "You are all great contributors. There's plenty of food for you tonight. You can have more if you finish."
When Bi Qiaoan realized she was also entitled to a share, she quickly declined, "No need to pay for me, I've already eaten!"
Before Comrade Xiao Zuo could speak, Li Sikai said, "It's alright, it's just a meal. Your husband Shen's contribution today is enough for you to eat for several days. Don't be so reserved. After all, you are a formally hired guard."
The use of the phrase "officially joined the company" indicates that passing the assessment is a certainty. Bi Qiaoan smiled and thanked him without any pretense.
"Speaking of which, I should thank you. If it weren't for the milk curds you gave me, I might have lost my life!" Li Sikai said with a smile.
“Milk curds? That was a year or two ago!” Bi Qiaoan was puzzled. Could a few pieces of milk curds really save a life?
Li Sikai did not hide anything and recounted how he was buried by aftershocks two days ago, how he survived on milk curds after being trapped, and how he was rescued and saved after regaining consciousness.
Bi Qiaoan was also very surprised after hearing this. She never expected such a "fate". However, she did not take credit and said with a smile: "Actually, you are just lucky. Otherwise, how could you have escaped unscathed in such a violent aftershock?"
As for the milk curds, they're just icing on the cake. Even without them, I believe you can turn misfortune into good fortune.
“Maybe it’s possible, but it certainly won’t be that smooth.” Li Sikai laughed. “At that time, my consciousness was already a bit blurred. If I hadn’t relied on the milk curds to replenish my strength, I probably wouldn’t have woken up so quickly and sent out a distress signal.”
Although they will eventually be rescued, the prolonged delay will inevitably lead to illness and suffering.
In the end, it's all thanks to you.
While this statement may be somewhat exaggerated, it is also true.
