Chapter 1432: Chapter 1429: She Can Regain Her Beauty

"Zi Ruoxi, what else do you have to worry about? Your Brother Ya Xuan is the top surgeon in the cosmetic surgery industry in Country H. Hehe! Trust yourself to me!" Li Yaxuan teased. His words were full of affection. It was clear that his fondness for Zi Ruoxi possibly came from the fact that she was born on the same day, month, and year as him, giving him a special feeling. However, it was certainly not love, more like a sibling bond protecting a little sister.

"Mm. Thank you, Brother Ya Xuan." Zi Ruoxi said emotionally. At this moment, no extra words were needed. Thinking about how in three days, she could regain her face, her mood could only be described as turbulent and uneasy.

"Sister Zi Ruoxi... I’m really looking forward to it!" Xiao Shan couldn’t help but say excitedly, gripping Zi Ruoxi’s hands tightly. Her delicate face radiated with joy.

"Xiao Shan..." Zi Ruoxi softly called out, her eyes welling up with tears. Nothing more to say. She thought of something and said slowly to Qiao Muyun and Li Yaxuan, "Xiao Shan and her sister have temporarily lost contact, and she doesn’t have a good place to go, so she’s going to stay with us for now. Brother Qiao Muyun, Brother Ya Xuan, you guys don’t mind, right?" Zi Ruoxi seemed to be seeking their opinions, but it was more like informing them. Regardless, she was determined to bring this girl along.

Upon hearing this, the two handsome guys had different expressions. Qiao Muyun was still the same, with his handsome face rarely showing an animated expression, still lean and aloof. Li Yaxuan, on the other hand, was different; he was much more cheerful and lively.

"Haha, not bad, I don’t mind. Four people just fit around a table. How does that Chinese saying go..." Li Yaxuan started fluently, but his speech got a bit stuck here, evidently not too familiar with Chinese, so he hadn’t quite reached the point of it coming naturally.

Zi Ruoxi smiled at Xiao Shan.

"Build the Great Wall!" The two girls said in unison, then giggled together.

The joyful atmosphere immediately infected Qiao Muyun. Although his appearance didn’t change, he had some thoughts deep down. With another girl around, taking care of Zi Ruoxi would be more convenient than doing it himself. However, the opportunities to spend alone time with Zi Ruoxi would be much fewer... This line of reasoning left Qiao Muyun feeling somewhat uneasy.

But now, he didn’t want to go against her wishes.

Zi Ruoxi noticed that Qiao Muyun hadn’t spoken at all.

"Brother Qiao Muyun, why aren’t you happy? Isn’t Xiao Shan adorable? Look, you have another little sister now!" Zi Ruoxi said with a grin, possibly too excited, joking around with a sly tone, "Xiao Shan is really well-behaved, Brother Qiao Muyun. You have to take good care of her!"

Then, she brought Xiao Shan closer to the right, towards Qiao Muyun.

"Xiao Shan, Brother Qiao Muyun is very gentle. You two need to get along well! Haha..." Zi Ruoxi teased, her big eyes full of playfulness.

Hearing this, Xiao Shan blushed with shyness. The restrained nature of a young girl was plain to see as she softly said, "Sister Zi Ruoxi..."

"Uh... I’m a bit tired, you guys talk, I’ll... I’ll go back to the room first." Qiao Muyun said somewhat awkwardly, then cast a final glance at Xiao Shan, and directed it at Zi Ruoxi, "Zi Ruoxi, get some rest. See you tomorrow. Goodnight."

Zi Ruoxi faced his dark eyes, her big eyes clear and bright.

"Goodnight, Brother Qiao Muyun." Zi Ruoxi replied gently, watching him leave the room.

After Qiao Muyun left, the three remaining in the room looked at each other.

"Sister Zi Ruoxi, did I do something wrong? Brother Qiao Muyun seemed a bit unhappy." Xiao Shan said with some apprehension. Seeing the situation before, she just stood by Qiao Muyun, and he said he wanted to leave. He must really dislike her.

"Huh! How could that be? Silly! Your Brother Qiao Muyun is just like that, cold on the outside, but actually very warm inside. He’s just a bit shy. Don’t mind him!" Zi Ruoxi explained. Her clear eyes were filled with a smile.

Xiao Xue hadn’t responded yet, seemingly not quite understanding. Meanwhile, Li Yaxuan was smiling somewhat inscrutably, arms crossed, hand resting under his chin, looking at the two girls with amusement.

"I think your Sister Zi Ruoxi knows your Brother Qiao Muyun quite well. Xiao Shan, you’d better learn from your Sister Zi Ruoxi! Haha." Li Yaxuan said smartly.

Uh! I’m dizzy!

This was said too ambiguously. Even without any ambiguity, he managed to create some out of nothing.

"Brother Ya Xuan, you’re such a gossip! I had no idea you liked gossiping so much! We’ll have to spar about it someday!" Zi Ruoxi lowered her voice, a subtle smile forming at her lips.

"Or... let’s just forget it! I only gossip occasionally, otherwise, I’d be stifled!" Li Yaxuan joked. Looking at the girl in front of him wearing a hat, if he were to have a gossip showdown with her, Zi Ruoxi would definitely be a talent in this area. So, hehe, the joke ends here... knowing when to stop is also his consistent style.

Suddenly, Li Yaxuan stood up straight, twisting his neck as if ready to leave.

"Take good care of yourself these days, eat less greasy food, avoid too much sun, drink plenty of water, and keep a healthy mindset, okay? Haha." Li Yaxuan said with a smile, looking at Zi Ruoxi, "I’m leaving, get a good beauty sleep! Don’t overthink!" Then, his eyes lingered on Xiao Shan, "Take good care of your Sister Zi Ruoxi! Xiao Shan... Little Shan? Haha, you’re very cute."

"I know. Goodnight, Brother Ya Xuan." Zi Ruoxi nodded with a smile.

And beside her, Xiao Shan’s face flushed again. Embarrassed by that last comment.

"Brother Ya Xuan, goodnight." The voice was soft, but Xiao Shan’s expression was very shy, perhaps still a little intimidated by his doctor profession.

Li Yaxuan turned his head and then walked out the door.

......

The day quickly passed, neither painful nor itching, as the four boarded a plane to Country H. Along the way, Zi Ruoxi and Qiao Muyun were joined by two companions, no longer alone and constantly surrounded by laughter and joy. It seemed to have become a pleasant journey.

Four seats facing each other, Zi Ruoxi and Xiao Shan in one row, Qiao Muyun and Li Yaxuan in another, this angle perfectly allowing them to see each other’s expressions.

At this moment, Zi Ruoxi, her face full of confusion, gazed at the departing Country R, filled with emotion.

"What are you thinking about, Zi Ruoxi?" Qiao Muyun asked. The emotions in her eyes could not escape his notice.

"Uh, I was thinking, coming to Country R and not appreciating the majestic beauty of Mount Fuji, not experiencing the romance under the cherry blossoms, it’s really a bit regretful."
