Chapter 346: 198 Qiu Family’s Calculations (Second Update) Chapter 346: 198 Qiu Family’s Calculations (Second Update) After the eting, Qiu Hongsheng went straight ho. As he arrived, he happened to see Zhou Fanghua sitting on the living room sofa, engrossed in a thick photo album.
A vein on his forehead twitched montarily, and he subconsciously lightened his footsteps, fearing that he might accidentally trigger Zhou Fanghua’s sensitive nerves, causing her to beco hysterical once again.
However, Zhou Fanghua suddenly looked up, casting a quick glance at the cautiously approaching Qiu Hongsheng. His embarrassnt surged, accompanied by an inexplicable feeling of guilt, as if he were a ‘thief with a guilty conscience.’
The corner of his mouth twitched slightly, and deciding not to hide, he started unbuttoning his shirt while walking towards the sofa to sit down. As he sat, he loosened his crisp military uniform, leaning his entire back against the sofa cushions and sighed comfortably.
Zhou Fanghua, gazing at the youthful face in the album, touched her now wrinkled skin and sighed as well, “Hongsheng, my skin has beco rough, and I have wrinkles. There’s not a single beauty salon in the Safe Zone, what should I do?”
Qiu Hongsheng rolled his eyes inwardly, What a ti to worry! Last night, zombies nearly broke in, we were almost dead, and she’s thinking about beauty treatnts!
He didn’t bother to reply, but his gaze involuntarily drifted to Zhou Fanghua’s face. Upon seeing her, he realized she indeed looked significantly aged, having lost her forr radiance.
The couple had always paid great attention to their maintenance, choosing only the exquisites in food and personal care. They had hired a nutritionist who was responsible for designing healthy al plans, and their cook was carefully selected for excellent culinary skills. He was a man and fared sowhat better; Zhou Fanghua lived even more exquisitely, with her own makeup artist and beauty consultant, and soone to coordinate her daily outfits.
Therefore, Zhou Fanghua’s makeup and attire were always perfect, regardless of the occasion. Despite being over fifty, she looked remarkably youthful, as if she were in her late thirties or not yet forty. Besides her makeup and clothing, her deanor was also immaculately polished, the kind indicative of a well-educated and cultured lady of high society.
Naturally, Qiu Hongsheng was very satisfied with a wife who always made him look good. Even if he occasionally strayed and kept a few mistresses, he would never let them appear before Zhou Fanghua to avoid embarrassing her.
But after the apocalypse, Zhou Fanghua gradually beca unreasonable. Without her professional makeup artist and stylist, her makeup and outfits seed less perfect, and her skin aged rapidly, losing its past elegance.
Qiu Hongsheng saw Zhou Fanghua every day and was all too aware of the changes in her, but with his focus elsewhere and facing his own aging, he subconsciously avoided this harsh reality.
Now that Zhou Fanghua ntioned it, he realized with a start that she had aged so much! Then, he involuntarily thought of himself.
Next, he heard Zhou Fanghua say, “Look at you now, you’ve aged too, looking like an old man, utterly hideous.” After saying this, she crinkled her brow dismissively, her mind recalling what Qiu Hongsheng had looked like before the apocalypse.
Qiu Hongsheng felt a sting in his heart. Whether man or woman, once one gets older, there is always a special concern for one’s physical condition. He had been proficient in self-care, appearing to be just over forty, handso and dashing, mature and steady, a fatal attraction for won.
So, privately, Qiu Hongsheng had always felt he was in his pri years, but now, hearing Zhou Fanghua call him an old man, how could his heart bear it?
He darkened his face almost imdiately, speaking unhappily, “You should take care of yourself first and see if you can do sothing about the wrinkles on your face, looking as unsightly as an old hag!”
After saying this, he stood up, preparing to go upstairs.
Zhou Fanghua’s face turned a livid shade of anger. Then, she suddenly said, “Hongsheng, you said Wood Elent Superpower Users can make plants grow and heal the wounded, can they make us young again?”
Qiu Hongsheng stopped his ascent and turned to look at Zhou Fanghua warily, sensing she had so ill-conceived plan! Worried she might do sothing rash, he warned, “We are not Wood Elent Superpower Users, how could we know the extent of their abilities? The current situation is already unfavorable for the Qiu Family, don’t you start causing trouble!”
