Fearfully touching her face, Liu Su turned to face Liu Yun before slowly following Fan Xi into the restroom.
Jiang Hong saw this and thought Fan Xi was fortunate to have allowed the Zhang and Liu families remarriage. She then discussed the importance of skincare. A dream only a fool would entertain!
She approached Liu Yun and whispered, "Don't trust Fan Xi too much. She was lucky last night. Today, she still doesn't let Liu Su be herself, right? She says the cosmetics harm the skin—wasn't she trying to hurt Liu Su?"
In response to Jiang Hong's words, Liu Yun looked up at her with seriousness and cast a worried glance toward the bathroom.
Fan Xi had Liu Su take off her makeup in the restroom, resulting in a return to her natural beauty. After being squeezed, the mature acne quickly scabbed over. The birthmark was then noticeably darker than it was the day before.
"Do you notice anything different? In the best-case scenario, the acne scars in the affected area gradually fade as the scabs fall off. Nevertheless, you should have followed my instructions and washed your face with aloe vera gel yesterday. Consequently, restoration is slower."
Fan Xi explained patiently.
"You are more familiar with your birthmark than I am. Is the color redder now than it was before? This demonstrates that leaving your makeup on from the day before irritates your skin and makes it red. This is another reason I request that you wash your face."
Fan Xi made a diagnosis, and Liu Su listened attentively as she pointed to her face. Her forehead wrinkled in an instant. Her eyes went from being wide with joy to being filled with fear. "Fan Xi, can you please assist me once more?"
She pleaded with her eyes and acted coquettishly toward Fan Xi.
The goal for Fan Xi was to make money for Liu Su's wedding. She gave a small smile. "Am I not here to help you? You must follow my instructions when you return today."
The aloe vera gel was in the sink. Fan Xi took a spoonful with a unique spoon and put it on Liu Su's face. She said that aloe vera gel could help with pain. "This will help calm your skin because it is red right now."
"I hear you!" Liu Su shook her head like a kid. She was different from the person before, who was always against Fan Xi.
One of the two people outside stopped smiling, and the other's worried expression faded as they listened to the conversation and began to reflect.
Naturally, Jiang Hong was the reluctant party. Since yesterday, when Fan Xi first began applying makeup to Liu Su, she had been at a loss. She had yet to learn where Fan Xi had picked up the ability to help Liu Su out of jam twice in a row.
She had paid little attention to Fan Xi's face-powdering habits in the past year or so.
Suddenly, she thought of something and opened her mouth wide in horror.
Liu Yun was puzzled by Jiang Hong's change in expression, but she was more curious about Fan Xi.
This Fan Xi really seemed different from the person in her memory. Could it be that Fan Xi hid some secret?
Fan Xi and Liu Su stayed in the bathroom for 20 minutes before leaving.
At that point, Liu Su had already reverted to her original appearance, but when she emerged, there was no longer any sign of inferiority in her eyes. Instead, respect for Fan Xi takes its place.
"Fan Xi, can I come to find you tomorrow? I only dare to put things on my face when you're around." Liu Su asked Fan Xi carefully.
"If you want aloe vera gel, you must bring your own. I do not have much, so I would have to charge you if you want to keep using mine."
Although the items she had once belonged to someone else, they now legally belonged to her. She had to economize on makeup before she could afford to buy her own.
"Money doesn't matter. Can you tell me how much you need? I give it to you!"
Fan Xi thought that Liu Su would at least hesitate for a second or two, but she said these words without hesitation.
As expected, the ones who were spoiled were the young ladies!
Fan Xi's eyes lit up but did not show it too obviously. She coughed to cover it up. "Since you say so, it is okay not to bring any. Two yuan is being charged per use and given to me for three days."
