You Xuezhen woke up completely, looking at the ceiling and staring.

"Are you crazy? What do you do with makeup all of a sudden? ”

"Can't boys wear makeup?"

"Yes...... But it's just weird. "After all, this person had never put on makeup before, and there was no need for it.

"It's my birthday today, and I want to try makeup on such a ceremonial day, what's wrong?"

She paused and said, "If you really want to turn into Huang Qianru." ”

"Who?"

Outrageous...... He released her pigeons a while ago because of this person, who was the first reaction when he heard someone's name?

"Haven't you been in a hot fight with her lately?"

Ye Wanbai sighed lazily: "She, she has already deleted WeChat from each other." ”

You Xuezhen couldn't help but be stunned, although she knew that this was an inevitable result, but she didn't expect it to be so fast this time.

If other people are hot for three minutes, then the leaves must only be whitening for three seconds.

"That's it, today I am the birthday star, and the birthday star is the biggest. I'll pick you up at three o'clock. ”

"Please, I'm also a birthday boy!"

The phone has beeped to busy.

“……”

You Xuezhen lay down for another ten minutes, and got up from the bed without sleeping enough.

Then there was a chaotic operation, taking a bath, washing hair, applying a mask, blowing hair, eating takeout, making up and hairstyle, turning over boxes and cabinets to try on clothes, and finally finishing up before three o'clock.

She took one last look in the mirror, where the table in the background was full of skirts pulled out of the closet, but she was still wearing a normal sweatshirt and jeans. Before leaving the door, she pressed the hat hanging behind the door to her head, and the top of her skull, which had just taken half an hour to blow up, was completely hidden.

Ye Wanbai's car stopped at the school gate, and when he saw her come out, he honked the horn.

She trotted over with her makeup bag and a gift bag for him, pulled away and sat in the passenger seat.

He glanced at her from head to toe, reached out and took off her hat, and complained: "I don't know, I thought you were the little sister I called to help arrange the party today." ”

You Xuezhen snatched the hat back and put it on, and her tone was hard: "I am indeed a little sister, a little girl with makeup who looks for your big birthday star." ”

"Why are you so reluctant? I'm kind enough to buy you a gift. Ye Wanbai opened the car drawer on the passenger seat, "Happy birthday." ”

There were two packages lying in the drawer at this time, one was undoubtedly bought by Ye Wanbai, and the other was bought by Ye Wanbai's mother. Every time she prepares a birthday gift for her son, she will never forget to buy one for You Xuezhen.

"Which one belongs to Auntie?"

"Left."

She happily reached for the bag on her left, which contained a pair of brown ear tips and a wire next to it.

"Are these Bluetooth ear tips?"

"Hmm. Once you mentioned that wearing earmuffs and headphones hurt in the past, my mother wanted to say don't wear headphones in winter, buy you earmuffs that can listen to music in winter. ”

You Xuezhen's fingers rubbed the plush of the earcups, and the tip of her nose was a little sore. She clicked on Ye's mother's WeChat to reply thank you, sent several emojis of loving you, and then took out the bag that she had just put in the car and put at her feet for Ye Wanbai.

"I'm sorry, but unfortunately you only have one gift."

He frowned: "Did they forget your birthday again?" ”

You Xuezhen glanced at the family group without red dots, and muttered, "It doesn't matter." ”

Ye was silent, and after a while, he freed up a hand and rubbed her head.

"It's okay, I'll give you my mother's share of me."

You Xuezhen's nose began to itch again.

She slapped his hand away and said in disgust: "No, I'll be fair, now we each have two copies." ”

The car drove to Ye Wanbai's apartment. The house was a bit more messy than the last time she came. Ye Wanbai casually opened the game console and coat on the sofa to make room for her, and pointed to the vacant seat for her to sit.

"Let's go here, I'll wash my face."

Taking advantage of his efforts to wash his face, You Xuezhen spread her makeup bag on the coffee table, and her eyes were still habitually analyzing the items on the coffee table: game discs, unfinished Coke, tissues, headphones...... It's all something that belongs to him.

The sound of water in the bathroom stopped, Ye Wanbai came out after washing her face, and she quietly withdrew her gaze.

He rubbed his hair and walked over to the open cooking table, cut three slices of lemon, threw them into his mug, added two spoonfuls of honey, and a quick glass of honey lemonade was in her hand.

In an emergency, he operated the Bluetooth of his mobile phone to play the song again, squatted down in front of her, everything was ready, and said, "Let's start." ”

"You're squatting?"

"That's right. This sofa is low and you sit just right. You have to bow to me the whole time while I sit, I can't afford this big gift. ”

Although she is cheap, her posture is subservient to hers. With his arms on his thighs, he opened his face to her, turned his face up, and closed his eyes.

The speaker is connected to Bluetooth, and a random song "Say You Love Me" is displayed.

The whole room is surrounded by singing. At half past three in the afternoon, there were only one or two drifting clouds in the sky, and a large amount of sunlight passed through the floor-to-ceiling windows, resting on the ends of his hair and the side of his face without hesitation, half light and half dark, and the bright half of his skin was like a piece of spotless glass. She felt like a touch of her hand would shatter him.

But she knew that it was herself who was crumbling. Especially when you hear the opening line, "Don't you know that I want to be more than just your friend." ”

I don't just want to be your friend.

She thought she could easily handle the makeup, just like she did when she helped Meng Shilong. But not at all.

It's just a finger's width away, and there are as many distracting thoughts as dust in the air. She pursed her lips repeatedly, afraid that her rapid heartbeat would be heard, and wanted to urgently end this test of her concentration, and greedily infatuated with the distance. So instead of allowing herself to look at his lips, his eyelashes, or anything, she stared at his hair, and suddenly noticed that the mole where his hair met his forehead had become smaller. Or rather, it's not that the mole has gotten smaller, it's that he's gotten bigger. The boy's body is jointed into a young man, and the mole that was originally conspicuous on the child's face is no longer inconspicuous, but it still exists.

She lifted the concealer brush and touched the mole privately. The dots were covered in an instant.

She hid it.

Many of these moves, but she was inexplicably satisfied.

She created the secrets of his body that only she knew.

In addition, there is no need to conceal imperfections, and you can directly isolate them, not even foundation. Ye Wanbai's face also doesn't need too much modification, it is simpler than Meng Shilong's, after all, his eyebrow shape has long been corrected. She just needs to add the icing on the cake and draw two strokes.

The whole process of applying makeup took less than ten minutes, but she felt like she had been in the sauna for an hour, and her back was full of sweat.

You Xuezhen put away her eyebrow pencil and exhaled.

"Alright."

Ye Wanbai slowly opened his eyes, but he didn't get up, his eyes lazily raised, grabbing her face to see.

The viewer has no heart, but the person who is being targeted has a weak heart.

She sneered, "What's wrong?" ”

"Lips." He said.

She didn't understand: "Lips? ”

Ye Wanbai laughed at her: "I didn't find out that your lipstick was all applied just now, can you help me with this technique." ”

That's the lipstick that was put on, and it was obviously caused by the constant pursing of the lips just now.

It was evidence that she had a ghost in her heart, and he unknowingly pointed it out, and her heart couldn't help but tighten, and she hurriedly went to draw tissues.

Ye Wanbai was more trouble-free, he stood up with one hand, and directly buckled the person's chin with the other hand, just holding her all over his body. She couldn't move, except for her chin that followed his hand, and she watched from looking down at him to looking up at him.

He enveloped her in shadows.

He lowered his eyes, eyes met, and his fingertips pressed against the line of his lips and swept over her lower lip. The fingertips also have a slightly sour smell of sliced lemon. When he let go of his hand, the tip of his thumb was stained with her lipstick, a faint red. But in her eyes, the sunset before the typhoon, the magma, the raging fire, the hawthorn, the blood that flowed from the cut skin...... These reds don't seem to be as strong as the one on his hands.

Chapter 14

When You Xuezhen reacted, her body quickly synchronized and made movements, slapped Ye Wanbai's hand away very hard, and said in a deep tone: "I will wipe it myself." ”

He was stunned, as if he didn't expect her to be so repulsive, and his face was a little bad.

"What, why are you still shaking your face for helping you wipe it?"

"You're going to rub off your foundation like that!"

She took the mirror and pretended to look at the corners of her mouth, "Don't take a picture and don't rub it off." Ye Wanbai snatched the mirror and looked at himself, "My mouth seems to be a little dry, why didn't you put a lip balm on me or something."

"You paint it yourself." She handed him the small round box of lip balm from her makeup bag, "Unscrew this one directly, and wipe it on your lips with a little finger." ”

When Ye Wanbai heard this, he refused to answer.

"That finger is sticky, you can help me paint it."

"What are you afraid of when you got all the lipstick just now......"

"Lipstick doesn't have lip balm."

"Farts are sticky."

"That's even more unfair, since I'm all sticky and I've wiped it for you, why can't you wipe it for me? I helped you just now and your tone was so fierce......"

Because I have a ghost in my heart and you don't.

You Xuezhen slandered.

In the end, the two of them argued for a long time about applying lipstick, and the result of the fight was that she didn't help apply it anyway, and Ye Wanbai didn't apply it herself, complaining to her, "Let you help put on makeup and your face can be as long as Avanti, you are very enthusiastic about helping others." ”

On the way to the villa area, the atmosphere was so strangely cold, neither of them took the initiative to speak, and it inexplicably turned into a state of cold war, only the radio in the car continued to broadcast the song listening radio.

Half an hour later, the car drove to the villa in the suburbs.

This villa is a Republican-era bungalow, three storeys high, the highest floor is a wooden deck terrace, backed by the ground high enough to overlook the long winding Sairong Bay in the distance. When the two arrived, it was sunset, and they went up to the terrace to catch a little afterglow dipping into the river.

Before anyone else arrived, they set about decorating the terrace. No one spoke during the whole process, and this childish competition continued.

The temperature at the end of November was not warm, but Ye Wanbai insisted on having a party on the terrace at night. He ordered this place because he took a fancy to the outdoor stove that came with this villa, and he said with great interest that he could drink wine around the stove overlooking the river view, and there were many people, so it would not be cold at all.

In terms of creating an atmosphere, Ye Wanbai is definitely a good hand.

He ordered some flowers and lanterns to be sent to the villa in advance, and the two of them inserted these flowers into the vase that came with the long table on the terrace, and hung the lanterns on the sofa, and turned on the other lights on the terrace, and the dusk, which was redder than the setting sun, lit up on the terrace.

When You Xuezhen hung the lanterns on the railing, she saw vehicles driving to the driveway on the mountain, and everyone came one after another. Some of them she knows, they are all friends of Ye Wanbai, and everyone has played together once or twice. Some are completely raw.

As night darkens, the villa, which is so large that it seems deserted, begins to become lively.
