The makeup went on slowly, but came off really quickly. The stylist helped Chu He remove her makeup and put her through a skincare routine.
“Your skin condition isn’t very good.”
As the stylist applied a layer of mask on her face, she asked, “Do you keep a skincare routine?”
“No.”
“You don’t use any skincare products?”
“No.”
“Good heavens…”
The stylists looked at each other.
“If you don’t take care of your skin at all and your skin is in this state, it’s really heaven-defying.”
Chu He said, “I usually only use clean water to wash my face. I don’t use cleansing lotion either.”
“Actually, you have very young skin and it’s in really good condition compared to other girls your age. It’s just that you don’t usually hydrate, so your skin is a little dry, and that worsens after putting on makeup. How about this, we’ll give you a few facial masks so that you can apply them every night. By the wedding day, your skin will be at its best.”
Chu He took the masks and glanced at them. She couldn’t tell what brand it was, but since it was recommended by a professional stylist, she believed it would be effective.
“Okay, thank you.”
Before she could finish speaking, a few stylists came up to her with dazzling smiles. Wearing extremely sincere expressions, they said pleadingly, “If Master Gu asks for your feedback on the service, please rate us generously! Otherwise…
“If Master Gu is not satisfied, we are all finished!”
“…”
So they were using these facial masks as a bribe. They were worried that she would not be satisfied with their service, and Gu Jinglian would hold them responsible.
“Yes, I understand.”
The stylists immediately thanked her profusely, almost kneeling down and kow-towing to her.
After they were done packing up their cosmetics and had gone away with grateful expressions, Chu He contemplated with a little confusion.
Was Gu Jinglian that scary? They looked like they were on the verge of tears.
Chu He stowed the skincare products they had given her in the drawer and walked towards the master bedroom. The moment she entered, she saw Linxi and Baby Chu messing around on the bed with balloons, while Butler Fu was sticking decorations on the windows. Sweeping her gaze across the room, she saw Gu Jinglian sitting on the sofa, cutting some paper.
Looking around, she noticed that the room had largely been decorated. The red bed curtains were draped over the bed, and the windows were covered with red paper cuttings. These paper cuttings were probably Gu Jinglian’s handiwork. Chu He looked surprised. “You know how to make paper cuttings?”
Gu Jinglian heard the voice and looked up. Seeing that it was Chu He, he tossed the paper cutting aside almost on reflex and said nonchalantly, “No I don’t.” When Baby Chu overheard this, he immediately got up from the bed and shouted, “Daddy cut it! He is not admitting to it because he finds it embarrassing!”
Gu Jinglian glared at the boy fiercely. Baby Chu immediately shut his mouth in fear.
Uncle Fu had just stuck a paper cutting onto the window pane. When he saw Chu He, he immediately smiled and said, “Actually, Master is most enthusiastic when it comes to decorating the nuptial chamber! He looks indifferent outwardly, but in fact, he has been overseeing all matters concerning the
wedding.”
“Butler Fu!” Gu Jinglian shouted, “Shut up. Don’t talk too much.”
When Chu He heard Butler Fu’s words, she smiled and said, “Embarrassing?
But someone said that he has never been concerned about the wedding and has been neglecting it. I never thought that someone would be so attentive towards the wedding. It even seems like he’s looking forward to it.” Gu Jinglian’s handsome face turned red.
He frowned awkwardly and said, “Who’s putting in effort?”
