Chapter 382: That's Damn Eyeshadow

The evening wind swept across the ground of the Ring Sea Road,

sweeping over the golden sand and green coconut leaves,

gently and coolly blowing into the bright lobby of the Langai Hotel.

Wen Zifan paused for a moment, thinking she had misheard.

She turned her stiff head and saw Chen Jianhai standing behind her, wearing a white "Real Man" polo shirt with a shoe print on the shoulder, sweating all over.

Wen Zifan stared blankly and spoke, "Aren't you on the island? Why did you suddenly come back?"

Chen Jianhai replied, "You didn't respond to my messages, so I didn't know if you agreed. I came back to ask you in person."

But as soon as he stepped into the hotel's entrance, Wen Zifan's message arrived on his phone.

"Uh-huh." Wen Zifan nodded blankly, completely dumbfounded.

Chen Jianhai was also extremely nervous.

After a long and awkward silence, Chen Jianhai mustered up the courage to ask,

"So, will you come with me? I borrowed Xiaolang's car keys, but if you have something to do..."

"Yes!" Wen Zifan, like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, hurriedly said, "I need to change my shoes first!"

With that, Wen Zifan, with a flushed face, dashed towards the employee lounge like she was flying.

Watching Wen Zifan's running figure, Chen Jianhai let out a long breath, grabbed a few tissues from the nearby tissue box, and wiped the sweat from his face.

"Buzz... Buzz, buzz!"

The phone in his pocket vibrated so much that his thigh went numb.

"Boss, is there still a boat tonight or not? Professor Yuan and his team have been waiting at the dock for a long time, constantly asking us."

Chen Jianhai, with a fierce expression, harshly said, "No more!"

I've already taken the boat,

These researchers never stop.

If he hadn't waited until around three in the afternoon and couldn't wait any longer, he would have missed tonight's date for sure!

"What should we do, boss? They all have things to do and want to go back to Nanjiang..."

On the phone, the employee spoke anxiously in a low voice.

Go back to hell!

Chen Jianhai impatiently said, "Arrange rooms for them in the hotel, waive their accommodation fees for one night, and arrange for them to go back to Nanjiang tomorrow morning."

"Okay, I have urgent matters here. You handle the rest."

With that, Chen Jianhai hung up the phone without hesitation, ran straight to the restroom on the first floor, and quickly washed his face.

He had run all the way here, sweating all over.

There was no time for a shower and a change of clothes, so he could only quickly wash his face.

After all, Wen Zifan only went to change her shoes; he didn't want to keep her waiting.

Two minutes later,

Chen Jianhai walked out of the restroom, looking refreshed and full of energy, sat on the sofa in the lobby,

his eyes fixed on the direction of the employee lounge, full of hope.

...

Two minutes, five minutes...

Ten minutes passed.

A beautiful figure emerged from the employee lounge,

Wen Zifan had changed out of her neat short skirt and black silk high heels, now wearing a pink V-neck slim-fit dress,

Her pale feet were in nude-colored flat shoes with shiny rhinestones, and her pink earlobes had something hanging, sparkling brightly.

Wen Zifan was naturally fair, and now she looked almost glowing.

"Boss, let's go?"

Wen Zifan, her face flushed, softly uttered four sweet words that didn't sound like her own voice.

She seemed to think her hair was messy,

With her peach blossom eyes shyly lowered, she gently tucked her hair behind her ear with her right hand, her pink face blushing to her ears,

Not hearing Chen Jianhai's response for a while,

She peeked at him with her amber eyes, only to see him staring at her foolishly, looking like someone who had never seen the world.

Idiot...

Wen Zifan lightly lifted her right foot behind her, her toes touching the ground, looking delicate and shy.

Just as Wen Zifan was shyly revealing her beauty,

A finger suddenly descended from above, brushing her eyelid,

Wen Zifan stiffened, her shy smile gradually froze, she looked up at the man before her.

...What just happened?

The next moment,

A rough voice echoed above Wen Zifan's head:

"What's that on your eyelid?"

Chen Jianhai looked at his thumb, not knowing what was on it, it was shiny.

Ever since Wen Zifan came out, he had been drawn to the sparkling eyelid, feeling like she was about to turn into the Monkey King and wreak havoc in the heavenly palace.

"Chen Jianhai!!!"

Wen Zifan exploded, that's damn eyeshadow!!!

She quickly took out a small mirror from her bag, and saw that her beautiful face had a noticeably dark mark on her right eyelid,

It was as if someone had scratched a layer of paint off a white wall.

Chen Jianhai looked at Wen Zifan innocently, not understanding why she was calling his full name.

And,

What happened to her bangs?

They were straight just now, why are they bent now?

Seeing Chen Jianhai trying to touch her bangs, Wen Zifan angrily jumped up and cursed:

"Get away, get away, get away!!!"

As she spoke, Wen Zifan's hands flailed like she was throwing punches, wildly slapping Chen Jianhai's hand.

The slaps made a loud noise,

Making the back of Chen Jianhai's hand red.

"Hey, it hurts! Stop hitting!!"

Chen Jianhai quickly retreated,

Not knowing why his once gentle and bright junior sister suddenly turned so fierce.

After what felt like an eternity, the junior sister finally stopped,

Her amber peach blossom eyes filled with anger, glaring at Chen Jianhai, she said through gritted teeth:

"Wait! I'm going to the restroom!"

With that, Wen Zifan angrily ran to the restroom on the first floor, leaving Chen Jianhai dumbfounded.

When Wen Zifan came out of the restroom again, her eyelid was once again dusted with gold powder,

Chen Jianhai, having been scared by the previous slaps, kept a meter's distance from her, afraid of getting scratched again.

"Boss, Sister Xiaofan, going out?"

The doorman greeted them warmly.

"Going out for some business, thank you, brother!" Chen Jianhai waved to the doorman, leading Wen Zifan towards a Tiffany blue BMW convertible parked at the entrance.

This sports car looked a bit old; it was bought by Xiaolang a few years ago.

Originally, Chen Jianhai didn't want to borrow this one,

But Xiaolang's other sports cars were locked in the garage, only this one was parked in the backyard of the barbecue shop,

So Chen Jianhai had no choice but to borrow this one.

Wen Zifan stepped into the passenger seat, fastened her seatbelt, and put on a pair of cool sunglasses.

She looked like an emotionless female assassin.

"Ready to go?"

Chen Jianhai asked, like a nervous chauffeur.

Wen Zifan raised her left hand, two fingers pointing forward, making a "let's go" gesture.

"Alright!"

Chen Jianhai turned the key,

With a powerful engine sound, and a popping sound like popcorn,

The sports car sped away.
