"Is my makeup and hair okay?"
Sheng Jiaoyang asked as they got off the car, pulling on Shen Zhining's sleeve.
Shen Zhining smiled as he looked at her in satisfaction, touching a corner of her mouth. "You look perfect."
Sheng Jiaoyang glanced at him, spitting in her heart: weirdo!
The driver's gaze completely avoided the two as he stood next to the car.
Shen Zhining got off first and extended his hand to her, a slight smile on his face, making him appear just like a gentleman.
Sheng Jiaoyang placed her hand in his and gracefully got out of the car.
They entered the hotel and waited for the elevator, attracting a lot of stares. Sheng Jiaoyang was very calm. It had been a while since she'd become a celebrity and was already used to it. Furthermore, she'd never been afraid of stares.
After entering the elevator, Sheng Jiaoyang looked at the mirror walls clearly reflecting her face. Her hair was fine, eye makeup was also good, but her lipstick...
It looked like a dog had gnawed on it.
She angrily glared at Shen Zhining. There were other people on the elevator, so she couldn't get even with him and could only choke down her fury. Now she understood why she'd felt like everybody was looking at her so weirdly earlier.
After only the two of them were left in the elevator, Sheng Jiaoyang pushed his shoulder and complained, "It's all your fault! When I asked you, why would you say perfect? I could've fixed my makeup in the car!"
When she thought of how many people had seen her at the hotel's entrance, she cupped her face and sighed. Her image...it's ruined!
Ding!
They reached their floor.
"I'm going to go fix my makeup." Sheng Jiaoyang picked up her purse and walked to the washroom.
The washroom here was a communal one with different toilet halls. She'd just entered the washroom when she saw somebody washing their hands. The other person also heard her walk in and looked up.
"You..."
Sheng Jiaoyang's jaw dropped, and she didn't know what to say.
His face was still the one she liked, but that uncontrollable feeling of love and desire had already unknowingly faded.
Lin Yan walked towards her, his gaze stopping at her...lips.
"Do you have a boyfriend now?" he asked in an ambiguous tone.
Sheng Jiaoyang released a deep sigh and nodded. "Yeah. He said that he likes me and I just so happened to like him too, so now we're together."
"You also like him?" Lin Yan slowly repeated.
Sheng Jiaoyang pursed her lips. Under his somewhat hurt gaze, it was hard for her to admit it.
Lin Yan suddenly reached out and raised her chin, using his thumb to wipe off the stain. "You're already so intimate with him."
Sheng Jiaoyang moved her face away and lowered her eyes. Then, speaking softly, she said, "Lin Yan, don't be like this."
He laughed bitterly and asked, "What if I say I regretted it?"
Sheng Jiaoyang raised her eyes and met his melancholic gaze. Her heart shook, but her reason was still there. "It doesn't matter if you regret it, you're already engaged."
"I'm only engaged. Besides, I can get a divorce even if I'm married. I only want a chance to make it up to you, can you give me that chance?" Lin Yan's eyes were filled with emotion so deep one could get lost in them.
