88. Chapter 88 Women's Weapons



Su Xiaoli even suspected that this woman was Gu Feihan's relative.

The tone was exactly the same as when he was relying on me! The problem was, my boyfriend invited me to dinner, why are you joining in the fun?

How many watts?

Before she could even open her mouth, Xiangli called the waiter over, "Add a set of tableware!"

Su Xiaoli glared at Gu Feihan: Why didn’t you stop her!

Gu Feihan looked aggrieved. I didn’t understand a word this woman from Country C said just now, okay?

As soon as she heard the words "dad shreds", "sesame shreds" and "potato shreds", she wouldn't leave.

Su Xiaoli felt pain in the back of her teeth and her mouth was pursed into a straight line.

"Order and pay for yourself. My boyfriend doesn't treat other women to dinner." She rolled her eyes at Xiangli.

Xiangli just wanted to find someone who could talk to her, and she had no problem with money, so she just ordered a bunch of her favorite foods.

"After we finish eating, you will accompany me to my room. I have bought a lot of cosmetics recently, and I am looking forward to using them someday."

"Hmm."

Xiangli was really upset and kept talking a lot.

Su Xiaoli chatted with her casually.

When he was happy, he would reply to her, and when he was busy eating, he would just hum vaguely.

Xiangli was in high spirits and hadn't been so happy in a long time.

Gu Feihan was originally watching the fun with a cynical smile.

The more she ate, the more question marks appeared on her forehead. Why was her face so close to Xiaoli?

It looked like he was going to lock himself up with Su Xiaoli.

He, the real boyfriend, didn't even have a chance to say a word!

Gu Feihan looked Xiangli up and down.

Could it be that this Xiangli was his real rival in love? Finally it was coffee time, and Xiangli offered to pay.

This is a state-owned western restaurant, and they only offer two kinds of coffee: black coffee and milk coffee.

Light coffee cost 5 cents, and milk coffee cost 6 cents. Considering people's monthly salary of about 50 yuan at that time, although it was not cheap, it was still affordable.

Su Xiaoli ordered a cup of black coffee, while Gu Feihan, who was trying to trick his "love rival", ordered a milky coffee.

Xiangli is the most greedy. A cup of milk coffee is not tasty enough, so she asks someone to put a vanilla ice cream in it.

Sitting on the low-slung corduroy sofa, Su Xiaoli looked out the window at the afternoon sun and took a sip of black coffee.

It's extremely clean, with the aroma of medium-roasted nuts, and the sweetness in the middle and back is so strange that it seems a little unreal.

For a moment, it seemed to bring her back to her previous life.

Xiangli was working on her special "ice cream coffee" and made a little noise.

Other than that, there was a faint silence around.

Su Xiaoli's eyes drifted away.

Gu Feihan looked into the girl's eyes, not knowing where they were resting in the distance.

He couldn't see the end at a glance, and didn't know where her soul was now. She seemed to be neither awake nor drunk.

He also fell into Su Xiaoli's dream, as if he was sinking to the bottom of the sea, but also floating in the air, and his heart felt sour and soft.

Somehow, a chill suddenly surged into Gu Feihan's heart.

In an instant, he realized that he could no longer catch her, and Su Xiaoli was left with only a vague shadow.

Gu Feihan wanted to wake her up, but saw that she had turned her head and smiled at him, turning back into the Su Xiaoli he was familiar with.

Her starry eyes returned to clarity and she looked at Gu Feihan again.

It seemed like a lifetime ago.

Gu Feihan held Su Xiaoli's hand as if he had regained what he had lost.

Su Xiaoli naturally held his hand back and teasingly pinched his suddenly cold fingertips, as if she understood his fear and was secretly comforting him.

She regained her nonchalant demeanor and glanced at Xiangli, who still had milk residue at the corners of her mouth.

"I'll go upstairs with her to put on her makeup. You can just walk around and wait for me. I'll be down around 5 o'clock."

Xiangli really wants to get back to a skin condition where she can put on makeup. Although her behavior is somewhat unlike that of a Chinese woman, the makeup ideas of Chinese women have had a profound influence on her.

Every woman in Country C knows that beauty alone is not enough, and it also requires superb makeup.

Therefore, women in Country C not only put on makeup twice a day, morning and evening, but also constantly touch up their makeup during the day. A face without makeup is not presentable to others.

This view of the C people has not changed from ancient times to the present.

In ancient times in Country C, the appearance of women when they woke up early was called "morning glamour".

After getting up, they have no makeup on their faces, their hair is disheveled, and they are distracted. They think it is extremely shameful to be seen by others.

“Makeup is a woman’s weapon.” This is what her grandmother taught her.

Fortunately, Xiangli has been staying in China for a while. Otherwise, if she were seen by other women in the family without any makeup every day, she would be despised by the whole family! Although she can't wear makeup these days, there is a table full of newly bought and unsealed cosmetics.

Su Xiaoli's mouth twitched.

I really want to raise the price.

Next time I will make an appointment for tiered pricing in advance, and increase the price for every five additional items so that I don’t lose out.

She glanced at the smiling Xiangli, "You won't suffer any loss! " "Pay the money first, then see the goods!"

Su Xiaoli collected half of the stack of Da Tuanjie before she started to check and sort the cosmetics one by one.

First, remove those with unsafe ingredients or those not suitable for your skin type; secondly, put the basic skin care products aside according to the categories of cleansing, protecting, and replenishing; and then arrange them one by one according to the major categories of foundation, concealer, setting makeup, contouring, eye makeup, lip makeup, and makeup tools.

After some operations, Xiangli's desk was half empty and much tidier.

"You can use these on the table, and the rest can either be given away or thrown away." Su Xiaoli didn't bother to be polite with Xiangli and spoke bluntly.

Xiangli pouted, but her hands were honest and she put the things that Su Xiaoli disliked into the bag.

Who says they are professionals?

Su Xiaoli can cure her own face, she is even better than a dermatologist.

Ever since she went to the dermatology department with the cosmetics and prescriptions that Su Xiaoli had chosen for her, the dermatologist had nodded repeatedly and asked her why she had to come to the hospital again since she had already seen a professional doctor .

She clearly wanted to use a professional doctor to slap Su Xiaoli in the face, but was coaxed back by the doctor, and the nurse mistakenly thought she was here to challenge him? Fortunately, Shan Qingzhang kept persuading her, so she tried the method Su Xiaoli gave her.

After eating vegetables and tomatoes for more than a month, her ointment and cosmetics were used up, and her face was almost healed.

Only then did she realize that the Chinese girl really understood.

After that, she would run to Xiangjiang Department Store whenever she had nothing to do, hoping to meet him again, but the "damn" Su Xiaoli never showed up.

When they met today, she held on to her tightly and asked her to be her professional consultant.

It's much cheaper than hiring a cosmetologist or beautician in Country C, it's worth it!  Thank you book friends for your votes and subscriptions~   (End of this chapter)
