Chapter 1940: The First Step Toward Change
Qian Yikun was in a good mood when he saw her. However, he was stunned when he saw the darkness that surrounded her eyes. “You didn’t sleep well yesterday?”
“Women without make-up all look like this. Can’t accept that?” Mo Fei was in a bad mood after being woken up. She brought her phone along as she walked to the bathroom with her eyes closed.
“Mo Fei!” Qian Yikun suddenly exclaimed.
“What?! You want to listen to me using the toilet?” Mo Fei angrily put down her phone and decided to go to the toilet first, letting him decide if he wanted to listen to her or otherwise.
“Mo Fei, if you didn’t do anything wrong, you’d definitely hang up after scolding me. Confess to me now.” Qian Yikun said coldly.
Mo Fei just sat on the toilet seat. All of a sudden, she did not feel the urgency of using the toilet anymore.
“Qian Yikun, is it wrong for me to accept your video call?” Mo Fei s.n.a.t.c.hed her phone and glared at the man on her phone screen.
“Where did you go?”
Mo Fei, “…”
It seemed like a proper conversation was out of the window.
Qian Yikun stared at the screen that indicated that the video call had been ended, and placed his phone on the sink. As expected, this woman went out.
After using the bathroom and was.h.i.+ng her hands, Mo Fei lay in bed directly. Did Qian Yikun become a G.o.d or something?
“Argh—” Mo Fei screamed and covered her face with the blanket. After being around Qian Yikun for so long, she had lost all sense of mysteriousness.
“Feifei?” Mrs. Ding knocked on the door.
“Mom, I’m fine.” Mo Fei was still covered under the blanket. She was fuming.
“Feifei, you should wash up since you’re up. Mrs. Qian asked us out for a meal today. It’s better not to be late.”
“Huh?” Mo Fei was completely awake now. Her future mother-in-law invited them out?
Out?
Today?
Mo Fei felt that there was something wrong with the timing chosen by her future mother-in-law?
Even though she did not know much about business, she knew what would happen.
So… Qian Yikun’s so-called solution was to make her not go to the company today?
Was he afraid that she would be put in a spot by the directors?
Mo Fei replied to her mother’s call. After listening to her mother’s fading footsteps, she stood up and went to the bathroom again. After was.h.i.+ng her face, she looked at herself in the mirror. The bags under her eyes seemed a little heavy.
Mo Fei looked down at the facial cleansing milk on the sink—
Alright, she only had facial cleansing milk.
‘Once a woman reaches twenty-five years old, if she doesn’t start caring for herself, she’ll age quickly. Do you honestly think people who are born with natural long-lasting beauty in this world?’
Recalling what Ye Yuwei told her before, Mo Fei could not help but tremble. She subconsciously reached out to touch her face. It seemed like her face was still bouncy and tender if she ignored the heavy eyebags.
She contemplating it as she returned to her bedroom. She took out her phone and called Ye Yuwei.
“Hey—” Ye Yuwei’s voice was very nasal, indicating that she was still asleep.
“Lend me your makeup.”
“What the h.e.l.l?” Ye Yuwei was startled awake by these words. She sat up straight and covered Gu Juexi’s face with a pillow before he got angry. Then, she threw the blanket away and got off the bed.
“Skincare products. Qian Yikun’s mom said that she wanted to treat my mom and me to a meal. Weren’t you the one who told me this? That women should dress up?” Mo Fei said matter-of-factly.
Ye Yuwei walked to the dressing table, pulled open the drawer, and found a few unused ones. “Nonsense, don’t alter my words. I was telling you that you need skincare, not makeup. I only have skincare products, CC cream, lipstick, and nothing else. Gu Juexi won’t let me use them.”
What a rare scene! Mo Fei finally knew to be concerned about her appearance in front of Qian Yikun’s mother for Qian Yikun’s sake. Could this be considered an improvement?
