Chapter 97 - 97: The Greatest Kindness in the World
Jiang Yun walked out of the building and took out the expensive lipstick set from the car. The company had very strict requirements for the front desk receptionist’s image, so the receptionist knew a lot about cosmetics. She knew at a glance that the lipstick Jiang Yun had given her was from a high-end brand. The receptionist was very grateful. “Miss Jiang Yun, you’re so good-looking and kind. You’ll definitely be treated well by the heavens. Don’t worry, if you need me in the future, just let me know.”
“What are you talking about?” Jiang Yun smiled. “Doing your job well and creating benefits for Huo Buyu’s company is the best repayment for me. Huo Buyu is a very important person. I’ll be happy as long as he’s well.”
The receptionist felt that Jiang Yun was too beautiful and treated Huo Buyu too well. She was just a lowly receptionist in the company, yet Jiang Yun treated her with such sincerity. It was obvious how much Jiang Yun liked Huo Buyu. The receptionist decided that she had to help Jiang Yun!
Jiang Yun glanced at the time and said kindly to the receptionist, “I’m going to attend a gathering so I’ll have to go. Work hard.”
Jiang Yun turned around and left. The moment she turned around, the elegant smile on her face instantly turned evil, and her eyes were filled with disdain. Bribing a low class and hypocritical person like the receptionist with a small favor was easy. Unfortunately, even though the lipstick set was not worth much, it was still a waste to give it to someone like her.
Huo Buyu brought Ye Yao to a stylist and bought a gown. As the saying goes, clothes make the man. Ye Yao had a good foundation to start with. Hence just a little makeup was enough to achieve an astonishing effect. When the stylist looked at the end result, he was stunned. “Miss Ye, your facial features are too perfect. When you came, I thought you were wearing light makeup. I was surprised to realize you were actually bare-faced. With your face shape and skin, you can stun everyone with just a little makeup! You must not be lazy and always go bare-faced! This is a waste of nature’s gift!”
The stylist was upset that Ye Yao didn’t exploit her good foundation. With her looks, she was more than qualified to enter the entertainment industry!
Ye Yao looked at herself in the mirror. She usually couldn’t be bothered to dress up, but she had to admit that she was indeed very beautiful after putting
on makeup. She had never seen herself styled like this before. She got up excitedly and went to look for Huo Buyu. She held her skirt and spun around in front of him. She asked, “Huo Buyu, do I look good?”
Huo Buyu looked up at her, his expression unchanged. “Are you done? Lees go then.”
Ye Yao grabbed him sullenly. “Do I look good? Answer me!”
Huo Buyu looked at Ye Yao seriously and ran his gaze up and down. Eventually, he asked, “Is this different from your usual self?”
When the stylist heard Huo Buyu’s answer, he almost vomited blood. How could it not be different? He had worked hard for more than three hours. How could it be the same as usual?!
However, Ye Yao blinked and realized what Huo Buyu meant. Her eyes curved into crescents as she hugged his neck and kissed him. Satisfied, she said,
“Alright, let’s go.” Then, she held Huo Buyu’s hand and left in satisfaction.
The stylist was confused. She felt that Ye Yao’s temper was too good. Even this didn’t make her angry.
In the car, Ye Yao continued to be in a happy mood. Although Huo Buyu hadn’t directly praised her for being good-looking, she understood what he meant. In his eyes, she had always been as good-looking and beautiful as now. Huo Buyu wasn’t the kind of person who judged a person’s outer appearance. He wasn’t dating Ye Yao because of her good looks. Of course, it wasn’t because of her personality that he was with her. It could only be said that sometimes, fate was a magical thing. If Huo Buyu had to list Ye Yao’s shortcomings, he could list a hundred with his eyes closed. However, if he had to list her merits, he wouldn’t be able to think of one no matter how hard he racked his brains. Nevertheless, he simply liked Ye Yao.
Back then, when Huo Buyu was on the verge of death in a car accident, it was Ye Yao who pulled him out and held his arm. Her anxious voice rang in her ears like an angel’s. She held him and begged, “Please, please hold on a little longer. The ambulance will be here soon. You’ll be fine. You have to hold on.
Think about this world and those who care about you. You have to hold on. You have to hold on.”
It was hard for Huo Buyu to imagine how such a thin and weak girl could risk her life to drag him out of a car that was about to explode. She had even tried her best to encourage him to persevere. There seemed to be a tenacious vitality in her. At that time, Huo Buyu had used all his strength to open his eyes to look at Ye Yao’s dirty little face. However, on that face, he saw the greatest kindness in the world..
