Gong Ruini rubbed her hands together and felt a bit rough, which made her really quite sad.
She had been very careful before, and most of the work was done by Cai ina and Zhan Jing, so her hands were well maintained.
But she had been doing more work here, and even though she used the earliest hand cream, clam oil, sohow no matter how much she applied today, they still felt rough.
Gong Ruini was really very sad, considering she wasn’t even ten years old, how could her skin be like this? What would happen when she turned thirty?
"Apply so on your hands." Just as Gong Ruini was lanting, sothing was passed to her from the side.
What is it? Gong Ruini was really curious. Why would Zhao Xuran hand her sothing, and with a bit of a secretive look towards Zhao Guangran? Could it be sothing good?
When Gong Ruini took it and looked, it turned out to be a small plastic box ward by body heat. What’s more, it wasn’t big. What is this thing?
"It’s for your hands. My mom made it. It’s good for your hands. Try it out and see what you think." Zhao Xuran had given Gong Ruini things before, but many of those were things everyone had.
This could be said to be the first ti he gave sothing solely to Gong Ruini without letting the younger siblings know, so he was really a bit nervous.
Oh, no way, is it hand cream? Could it be that Zhan Jing used so secret formula to make sothing good? But sohow, I don’t recall in my past life that Zhan Jing made anything unrelated to the Black Ointnt.
Perhaps she gave up this business entirely after seeing how booming the Black Ointnt business was later on.
Gong Ruini gently opened the box and imdiately slled a very fragrant scent, "It’s peach blossom."
Oh my, although the scent was a bit faint, if you put it right under your nose, you could still catch a whiff of it, "I like it."
Don’t even ntion the effect, just the scent itself was enough for Gong Ruini to be thoroughly smitten.
"As long as you like it. Try it out and see how it feels. I rember you like osmanthus, right? Co autumn, we can gather so from the osmanthus trees." After all, there are quite a few trees in Zhuge Zhi’s yard.
There aren’t many trees, but they are big trees, and the fruit they bear or the flowers they bloom are quite nice. If not managed, they would just wilt away, so it’s better to use them well.
"No, osmanthus can be used to make osmanthus cake." The thought of osmanthus made Gong Ruini feel a bit drool-happy.
"It can be used to make osmanthus taro." Oh no, I can’t go on, Gong Ruini felt her stomach starting to protest.
The foodie in her showed, Zhao Xuran chuckled with warmth, which made Gong Ruini feel embarrassed.
Gong Ruini actually wanted to act a bit proud, wondering if Zhao Xuran liked her, crushed on her, or sothing; otherwise, how could he look at her so gently? But she only entertained such thoughts in her mind, she really didn’t dare to ask so openly.
Gong Ruini scooped so hand cream and applied it to her hands, and imdiately felt it was nourishing. "So nourishing."
"So smooth." As she applied the hand cream, Gong Ruini also didn’t forget to give her ten fingers a massage.
As if that wasn’t enough, she didn’t forget to let Zhao Xuran watch, which made Zhao Xuran almost want to grab them and take a bite.
Zhao Xuran didn’t really understand why Gong Ruini was so dissatisfied with her own hands, always feeling that this or that wasn’t good enough, while in his opinion, they were really nice, plump and soft, with tiny dimples, and more importantly, they were fair, much nicer than many other people’s hands.
"Ni Zi, your hands are actually really nice." Zhao Xuran was worried Gong Ruini might do sothing silly in the quest for beautiful hands and reminded her naturally.
Her hands nice? That’s sothing Gong Ruini could acknowledge. Although so people preferred their hands slender, Gong Ruini liked hers with a bit more at; such hands were a sign of fortune.
"I just feel my hands are a bit rough." Discussing these issues with a guy, if you’re not straightforward, they absolutely won’t understand why girls are troubled by this, better to be direct.
Rough? Zhao Xuran had long wanted to feel Gong Ruini’s hands but never found a good opportunity, yet now there was such a great chance, how could he miss it?
So he reached out and had a good feel of Gong Ruini’s hands, "Not rough at all."
Although he didn’t want to let go, Zhao Xuran had no choice but to, lest Gong Ruini go wild like a mischievous child with no bounds.
My goodness, when they first arrived in the Northeast, Zhao Xuran often held her hands when they went out, but as ti went on, Zhao Xuran didn’t do that anymore.
But why today, could it be that he likes her?
Zhao Xuran rarely had physical contact with female classmates at school, and now he held her hand for so long, does he perhaps favor her hand? Is she a special existence to him?
After blissfully imagining for a mont, Gong Ruini returned to reality, thinking, no matter how much, it’s normal for Zhao Xuran not to reject her; their families have been friends for so many years.
"Auntie’s hand cream is really good." When it’s ti to praise, one must praise; when it’s ti to flatter, one must flatter.
"Really?"
He wasn’t satisfied with just that, so had to properly flatter, "And Brother Xu Ran is good, rember to thank him for getting such a good opportunity."
"But if there were face cream too, that would be even better." Although she wasn’t without cream to use, since Zhan Jing could make such effective hand cream, why buy it outside?
As for why back in the Northeast, Zhan Jing used to get face cream from the supply store, Gong Ruini couldn’t understand it, but perhaps she had her reasons and concerns.
"Face cream, huh." Zhao Xuran’s eyes sparked, had his certainty about his mom keeping it secret, for giving Gong Ruini a grand surprise, not said anything yet, everyone would’ve known a little.
Hmm, sothing’s up, Zhao Xuran’s expression seed odd, Gong Ruini thought it strange, could there really be face cream?
And would it have the sa peach blossom scent as the hand cream? It probably is.
As for why Zhao Xuran isn’t saying anything now, Gong Ruini assus he wants to give this as a New Year’s gift; though she hasn’t received it yet, she really wanted to hug Zhao Xuran and say she was very much looking forward to this year’s New Year’s gift, and that she should like it a lot.
But so words are better left unsaid, lest Zhao Xuran gets scared, after all, if they’re hoping for a surprise, let them believe it truly is one.
"Yeah, when I next see Aunt Zhan, I want to discuss face cream with her." Gong Ruini didn’t dare look at Zhao Xuran, this guy could be too clever by half, don’t let him see through anything by accident, that would be no good.
"Sure, you can discuss it with Ban Xia and the others too." Zhao Xuran even discussed with Gong Ruini who to discuss face cream with.
If Gong Ruini hadn’t sensed sothing, he would have probably succeeded in fooling her completely, oh well, perhaps this anticipation is a kind of happy expectation, isn’t it?
