SWNOVELS Chapter 30
Shen Qi would never forget what Ye Moxuan said to her.
He said that she was just his assistant when they were in public. However, he never regarded her as his wife even when they were back in the Ye residence.
She knew all this very well.
They were just in this marriage for their own benefits.
“Assistant?” Ms. Jing repeated after her and looked at her playfully for a while before sighing, “If you say so. Come and sit here after you’re done changing your clothes.”
Then, Shen Qi walked over, and Ms. Jing began to style her hair.
“Are you going to style my hair too?”
“Of course. You can’t go there like this.”
Ms. Jing worked very fast. She tidied up her hair, and cut her bangs into two parts.
Shen Qi’s hair was very soft and in very good condition. The bangs that Ms. Jing had cut into two parts adhered to her cheeks smoothly, framing her face nicely. The ends of her hair were curled into huge waves, giving her hair a fluffy look.
After that, she applied makeup on Shen Qi.
“Done.”
Sitting there, Shen Qi almost fell asleep. Ms. Jing snapped her fingers in front of her suddenly, startling her as she suddenly opened her eyes.
In the mirror, a woman with a fair complexion, rosy cheeks, charming long hair and alluring lips was looking back at her.
Shen Qi was taken aback by her own reflection.
“How is it? Are you amazed by your beauty?” Ms. Jing supported herself on the table with one hand while glancing at her with a vague smile.
Shen Qi leaned forward and looked at herself in the mirror in disbelief.
Was this really her?
How could she be so good-looking?
“Don’t doubt it, that’s you for sure. Your facial features are very sharp, and you have great skin. However, you usually neglect your skincare, so your skin is a bit dry. Take this bottle of spray. If your skin feels dry, just spray it. You should buy more sheet masks to nurture your skin.”
Hearing Ms. Jing’s advice, Shen Qi stammered and nodded. “Okay, okay.”
“You’re very beautiful. Moxuan will definitely like you.”
This was the first time someone praised Shen Qi like this, so she was at a loss.
At this time, Xiao Su was already outside, urging them to hurry up. Thus, Ms. Jing brought her out.
Xiao Su was stunned when he saw Shen Qi. Pointing at her, his lips trembled for a long time before he finally said, “Young Master Ye is already awake. Miss Shen, let’s go.”
“Oh.” Hearing that Ye Moxuan was awake, Shen Qi subconsciously became nervous.
Then, Ms. Jing walked outside with her. Before long, the car door was opened, revealing Ye Moxuan who was sitting inside with his laptop switched on in front of him. His slender fingers were typing away on the keyboard, a Bluetooth headset inserted in his ears, his thin lips moving occasionally. It seemed like he was busy working.
“Young Master Ye, we’re ready to depart,” Xiao Su stepped forward and said in a low voice.
Ye Moxuan ignored him, and just said something to the person on the laptop screen. Then, he turned off the laptop after he was done and threw a glance in their direction.
At first, Ye Moxuan just took a casual glance at them. However when his gaze passed over Shen Qi, there was an awestruck look in his ink-colored eyes, but it quickly disappeared. No one else realized except for Ms. Jing. She put her arms around Shen Qi’s shoulders and asked, “How is it? Isn’t she beautiful?”
Hearing this, Shen Qi bit her lower lip nervously.
Her lips were lighter in color, so Ms. Jing chose the most classic and attractive color for her. A peach colored lipstick was applied to her moist lips, which was being bitten by her teeth. It was as if her lips had the magical powers to lock Ye Moxuan’s gaze on her.
After the makeover, Shen Qi indeed looked more beautiful than before. The exquisite suit outlined her great figure—her small waist and her voluptuous chest. Under her toned and curvy buttocks were a pair of straight legs and a pair of high heels.
She had an elegant temperament, but still… something was missing.
Ye Moxuan’s eyes moved upward, and paused when they glided over her pink lips for a while before moving away and falling on her eyes.
He finally knew what she was missing.
Her aura!
When she looked at himself, her eyes were timid and weak, like a kitten who was abandoned on the street, looking for her owner for days. How could she follow him to a banquet in such a state?
Thinking of this, Ye Moxuan’s thin lips slightly curled up into a somewhat mocking smile.
“You look somewhat decent.”
Shen Qi was amazed when she saw herself undergoing such a transformation. However, Ye Moxuan said that she just looked decent.
“You have bad taste! This makeup doesn’t suit her at all.” After Ye Moxuan insulted Shen Qi, he started criticizing Ms. Jing again.
Ms. Jing was stunned for a moment before she finally came back to her senses. “Doesn’t suit her? How is this possible? She…”
“I’m in a hurry so I don’t have time to listen to your explanations. Get in the car.” After speaking, Ye Moxuan withdrew his gaze and looked forward indifferently. He looked arrogant as if he regarded himself as a king, looking down on everyone else.
His words angered Shen Qi. How could he criticize Ms. Jing’s carefully prepared work so straightforwardly? Was it so difficult for him to compliment her?
The cowardice in Shen Qi’s eyes suddenly disappeared as she silently tightened her fists and then bit her lower lip, glaring angrily at Ye Moxuan.
Glancing at Shen Qi, Ms. Jing found that her beautiful eyes were filled with anger. However, her anger made her shine even brighter; those beautiful eyes were shining like bright lights.
Ms. Jing looked at her, then at Ye Moxuan, and suddenly thought of something and laughed.
She had been fooled. Ye Moxuan… was a complicated man.
Thinking about this, Ms. Jing patted Shen Qi on the shoulder. “Alright, you should get in the car quickly.”
“Ms. Jing, I’ll go now. Thank you for everything today.”
Before leaving, Shen Qi thanked Ms. Jing, and then reluctantly got into the car.
After the car door closed, Shen Qi sat down beside him. Her faint fragrance occupied the space in the car immediately and travelled into Ye Moxuan’s nostrils along with the air.
The faint perfume fragrance was mixed with the body scent of a woman, transforming into another smell.
This smell was extremely faint but refreshing.
Then, Ye Moxuan frowned slightly.
He usually didn’t like it when women sprayed perfume on themselves, especially strong perfume.
However, the smell on Shen Qi actually made him feel very comfortable; he even subconsciously started breathing more heavily.
When Ye Moxuan finally realized what he was doing, he suddenly snapped back to his senses.
Damn it, what’s the matter with this woman?
“What’s the smell on your body?” he asked coldly.
Hearing this, Shen Qi came out of deep thought and pointed to herself, “Are you asking me?”
“Is there anyone else here?” he replied grumpily.
Shen Qi was speechless.
The driver driving ahead and Xiao Su were speechless as well.
Although they kept a low profile, they should still be counted as people, right? Young Master Ye, don’t ignore us, alright?
“Well, Ms. Jing said that this perfume is a product of her latest research, and she thought it was suitable for me, so she… gave me a bottle.
After speaking, Shen Qi also showed the perfume to Ye Moxuan, completely forgetting what Ye Moxuan had just said to her.
Ye Moxuan looked at the bottle of perfume, a faint pink liquid flowing in the bottle.
Fearing that she could not see clearly, Shen Qi leaned forward for a while, his collar slightly opened, revealing a piece of ivory skin.
