Chapter 52

"Are you sure?"

"I'm sure."

"Okay." Seeing that his face was full of confidence, Tao Ting thought that he should be sure.

She washed up and sat down in front of the mirror, moistening a cotton pad with toner and applying it to her cheeks.

Xu Linyue asked sincerely: "What are you doing here?" ”

Tao Ting replied: "Moisturize before applying makeup, otherwise it will be easy to get stuck in the makeup." ”

Xu Linyue frowned slightly: "It's so complicated?" ”

Tao Tingle was happy, and finally there was something he thought was complicated.

Before starting, Xu Linyue made a difficult mistake with the bottles and cans on the table, and seemed to have no idea where to start.

Tao Ting picked up an isolation stuff and stuffed it into his hand: "Apply this first." ”

"Oh." Xu Linyue cleared his throat and said eagerly, "Then I'll start?" ”

"Hmm." Tao Ting raised her face and closed her eyes, afraid that the man would not take it lightly, so she specially advised, "Be light."

Half a minute later, Tao Ting finally couldn't stand his dragonfly-like strength and slow method, opened one eye and asked, "Have you ever tried it after watching the video?" ”

"Nope." Xu Linyue bent down and smeared the white cream on the heart, "I can't melt myself."

Tao Ting said anxiously: "Then you will come to slap my face?" ”

"Don't move." Xu Linyue said in a serious tone, "You believe me, what if I am the second Mao Geping?" ”

"......" Tao Ting really couldn't bear to laugh at him.

The first few steps were not very difficult, and with the assistance of Tao Ting, Xu Linyue completed them quite well.

When it comes to eye makeup, things start to move in an uncontrollable direction.

The thick lines on her eyelids were like earthworms, and Tao Ting pursed her lips and didn't want to speak.

Xu Linyue looked down at the eyeliner in his hand, and strangely didn't blame himself anyway: "I see that they draw very smoothly, this quality is not good, right?" It's not silky at all. ”

"People are professional beauty bloggers." Tao Ting wiped her eyelids with a cotton swab dipped in makeup remover, took the pen in his hand and said, "I'll do this step myself, and I'll leave the blush for you to play." ”

Xu Linyue was a little frustrated: "It's quite easy to watch, how can it be so difficult to control." ”

Tao Ting comforted him: "The first time, I will slowly become proficient." ”

"This one is blush, right?" He picked up a brush.

"Hmm." Tao Ting put on an expression of righteousness and death, "You remember a small number of times." ”

"I know." Xu Linyue held the blush palette in one hand, dipped it with the brush head, and said, "It should be under the eyes, this is called slightly drunk makeup." ”

Tao Ting snorted and laughed: "Do you still know this?" ”

"Of course." Xu Linyue pressed Tao Ting's head, "Don't move." ”

The blush can barely be seen after the beating, and the focus of the color should be to improve the complexion.

Finally, only the last step of lipstick remained, and Xu Linyue was sweating on his forehead.

"Apply it to the middle and blend it out little by little with your hands." He recited and followed along.

The faces of the two people were close to each other, and when Xu Linyue's fingertips pressed against the lip flap, Tao Ting's breathing stagnated, and her eyes shook slightly.

"Does it hurt?" Xu Linyue asked softly.

Tao Ting shook his head, his eyes were focused, but he seemed to be distracted.

"Alright."

Xu Linyue straightened up, carefully examined his work, and nodded with satisfaction.

He asked Tao Ting, "How is it?" Do you have a feeling of Mao Geping? ”

Tao Ting looked back at the mirror and laughed: "I feel like Yang Fangting." ”

Xu Linyue was puzzled: "Who is Yang Fangting?" ”

"My mom."

“......”

There was movement in the living room, Zhou Yao got up, she saw Tao Ting's bedroom door open, poked her head in, and found that Xu Linyue was also there.

"Mr. Xu is here?"

"Good morning, breakfast on the table."

"I see it." Zhou Yao smiled at him.

Tao Ting stood up and walked in front of her, holding her chin and showing her face: "How about this makeup today?" ”

Zhou Yao saw at a glance the eyeshadow that had not faded at all: "Are you closing your eyes?" ”

"It's me." Xu Linyue said aloud.

"It's actually okay." Zhou Yao immediately changed her face, and her eyes switched back and forth between the men and women in front of her, "You two are very interesting early in the morning." ”

Tao Ting lowered her head and smiled, and Xu Linyue said, "No, it's just a whim." ”

Zhou Yao went out for breakfast, and as soon as she left, Xu Linyue sat at the end of the bed and sighed in disappointment.

"It's really okay." Tao Ting patted him on the shoulder.

Xu Linyue raised his head: "Really?" ”

"At least there's a lot of room for improvement."

Xu Linyue knew that she was comforting, smiled and said, "Thank you." ”

"I used to think of him that way, thinking he was just a businessman."

"Who?"

Xu Linyue said: "My former boss. ”

“August？”

"Hmm." Xu Linyue nodded, "Sometimes I scold him in my heart, 'You know a fart car'." ”

Remembering Xu Linyue's description of August last time, Tao Ting said: "I thought you respected him very much. ”

"Respect is respect, and there will be times when there is a disagreement."

Tao Ting sat next to him: "You are already very good." ”

Xu Linyue pulled the corners of his mouth silently, he didn't feel sorry for himself, Tao Ting's words woke him up that day, he was afraid that the dragon slayer would eventually become an evil dragon.

"Han Jianing is the spiritual leader of many girls in the company, do you know?" Tao Ting said, "We don't have the same feelings for her, we think that she is standing there, as if telling us that one day we can also stand in that position." ”

Xu Linyue turned his head to look at her: "What about me?" ”

"You, you are a mysterious and handsome boss, and everyone admires you very much."

"I'm asking you in your heart."

This question seemed to stump Tao Ting, she lowered her head and thought for a while before she said aloud: "My ideal in life was found in you, what do you say?" ”

Xu Linyue didn't understand for a moment: "What do you mean?" ”

"At Norbert at that time, I liked you, but I also wanted to be you."

"Be me? What good did I have, I was kicked back and almost lost my job. That experience was listed by Xu Linyue as the black history of his life, and he didn't really understand why the intern liked him at that time.

"Li Xie taught me that if you encounter a bump in your work, don't rush to go, and if you cross over, it will be your springboard." Tao Ting whispered, "Maybe you think it's the low point of your life, but what I've learned from you is not to run away, and don't be afraid to make things worse. ”

After failing to protect the graduate school, Tao Ting was unwilling to even try to take the postgraduate entrance examination, she was cowardly and did not dare to break the boat.

Now that she thinks about it, she is grateful for the "67" that Leon gave her, forcing her to look directly at herself, and finally giving her the courage to break free from the thick cocoon.

"I'm really, I'm not comforting you."

Xu Linyue asked, "What now?" Do you still want to be me? ”

Thinking of his miserable makeup skills, Tao Ting shook her head: "I don't want to." ”

"But I want to be someone you feel indispensable," she added. ”

"You already are."

They looked at each other and laughed tacitly.

The sun was shining brightly in the middle of summer, spilling through the windows on the floor.

"Is your birthday coming soon?"

"It's early, it's October."

"It's coming soon."

"What are you going to give me?"

Tao Ting asked him rhetorically: "Did I say I was going to give you a gift?" ”

"And what do you ask?"

Tao Ting casually said: "I'll arrange a drone show on the Huangpu River for you." ”

"Huh." Xu Linyue stretched out his palm, "Thank you, politely decline." ”

-

The Only and 9:10 o'clock co-branded perfume exhibition on a weekend in mid-September.

The two main products are inspired by special cocktails and borrowed from Nietzsche's philosophical ideas, and are named "Sun God" and "Wine God" respectively.

Apollo, the god of the sun, represents restrained and calm reason, and Dionysus, the god of wine, symbolizes fanatical and intoxicated sensibility.

As soon as Zhou Yao arrived at the door, she was pulled by her friends in the circle to take pictures, and Tao Ting carried her skirt and searched for Xu Linyue's figure in the crowd.

His body shape and temperament are too outstanding, and it is not difficult to find at all, and Tao Ting saw someone on the side of the bar as soon as she turned around.

She stepped up the steps in her high heels, sat down next to Xu Linyue, and asked very old-fashionedly, "Handsome guy, alone?" ”
