Because her skin was so fair, smooth as jade, with a rosy complexion. Her smiling eyes focused intently as she applied the toning water, and her fluttering eyelashes, nearly poreless cheeks, and naturally flushed lips exuded an indescribable tenderness and charm.
The young woman closed her eyes to enjoy it, and even after Tian Sangsang had finished patting it on, she still had an utterly blissful expression.
"How is it?"
"What does it feel like?"
"Say sothing already, young lady!"
"Hey, she’s still lost in it!"
The people waiting nearby couldn’t help but speak up impatiently.
The young woman suddenly snapped out of her daze, a bit embarrassed.
Her eyes imdiately sparkled with joy: "It’s wonderful, absolutely wonderful! When applied to my face, there’s a lovely floral fragrance, so pleasant. The moisture seeped into my skin, cool and refreshing, and my whole face felt rejuvenated. The products I’ve used before never gave this sort of experience. It’s light and non-sticky, like a cloud brushing against my skin."
Tian Sangsang chid in, adding with a grin: "Like crisp mountain air lightly kissing your cheeks, wave after wave of soothing refreshnt?"
"Yes, yes! That’s exactly it—so refreshing, unbelievably refreshing!"
The young woman nodded frantically, instantly transford into a fan girl.
The crowd began to buzz with chatter once again.
"The shopkeeper certainly is well-educated, knows his stuff, even speaks so eloquently."
"Oh, look! Her face seems to have gotten even fairer!"
"Yeah, yeah! And it’s no longer oily!"
"Amazing! I’ve got to try it!"
" too! Let try!"
The small bottle of toning water was crafted from glass, with a delicate green-hued liquid inside, labeled with the word ’Yan.’ To be honest, it was rare to find skincare products designed so light and dainty these days. Tian Sangsang might as well have brought modern-day products to this era; won loved it at first sight.
"You know," said soone, bubbling with excitent, "I saw my relative using so foreign brand... sothing like ’ya.’ Their bottles are just as fine and compact as these."
"Wow, foreign goods, huh?"
Though everyone claid not to blindly worship foreign imports, in their eyes, anything foreign was simply superior to local products.
People began clamoring to sign up for a chance to buy, pouring in like waves of the ocean.
Guan Kunling shielded Tian Sangsang behind him, his voice steady and commanding: "Line up, one by one, and everyone will get a turn."
Tian Sangsang took the opportunity to add, "For the next three days, anyone who buys the toning water will receive a free pack of cotton pads. After that, the promotion ends, so seize the chance!"
At those words, the crowd grew even more excited!
Seeing the overwhelming response, Tian Sangsang stepped back to the counter, steering clear of the throng, focusing solely on collecting paynt.
From behind the curtain, ng Shuyan peeked out, sticking out his fluffy little head to secretly watch.
Suddenly, a delicate, doll-like face caught his eyes—it was a little girl.
The little girl wore a pink puffy dress, looking impossibly sweet and adorable, smiling as she stared at him.
ng Shuyan froze, pursing his small lips, carrying a slight air of aloofness.
Although he was a charming little guy at ho, often cuddling up to his mom and uncle, he rarely revealed his soft side in public. Only when necessary did he unleash his cuteness.
The little girl stayed in place, seeing the little boy quickly retract his head and drop the curtain down.
She stayed dumbfounded for a mont, then lowered her head, looking wistfully at the milk carton in her hand.
She extended a small hand, pulling the curtain slightly open and tentatively pushing the milk carton forward.
ng Shuyan stood behind the curtain, spotting the milk being poked in through the gap. He lifted the curtain again.
The two children stood in silence, gazing at each other without uttering a word.
"This is for you~" The little girl’s sparkling eyes glead as she nudged the milk closer.
"I have milk at ho, I don’t need yours." ng Shuyan shook his head with a straight face. "Besides, my mom said I can’t accept things from strangers."
The little girl bead, her eyes curving: "My mom said good things ought to be shared with friends."
"I’m not your friend." ng Shuyan turned his head arrogantly.
"You are my little friend."
"When did I beco your friend?"
"Just now."
ng Shuyan: "..."
The little girl insisted on handing over her milk: "Take it, I’m giving it to you because we’re friends."
Unable to take sothing for nothing, ng Shuyan scratched his chin and retrieved a pack of his mom’s homade beef jerky from behind the curtain: "Here, take this. My mom said, ’Courtesy demands reciprocity—’
The little girl chid in cheerfully, "’Reciprocity is the polite thing to do.’"
"Huh?" ng Shuyan exclaid, "’Courtesy demands reciprocity.’"
Little girl: "’Courtesy demands reciprocity.’"
The two kids repeated the phrase, then burst into laughter together. Their friendship soared instantly because of this shared sentint.
The little girl’s mom had co to buy skincare products, but soon she had to leave with her daughter.
"Hey, who gave you the beef jerky?"
"My friend Yanyan gave it to ."
The woman glanced gently at the delicate little boy on the ground: "Thank you, young man."
ng Shuyan pressed his lips together, replying politely: "Auntie, you’re welco. Manman gave milk too."
Well, even their nas were exchanged.
With so many custors eager for trials, Guan Kunling assisted them one by one, and the shop filled with cheerful laughter.
"It really is just like that girl said—my face feels icy cool!"
"It’s like flying, floating on clouds!"
"Boss Tian, I’ll take a bottle, please!"
" too!"
"It works so well!"
Tian Sangsang handled their paynts with a bright smile: "Feel free to take a look—there’s also a set that works even better in combination. Of course, single items are perfectly fine too." She spoke while keeping an eye on ng Shuyan. Sohow, the little guy had wandered out, clutching a carton of milk.
That milk was clearly not from their own stock, making Tian Sangsang’s heart skip a beat.
She’d been extra cautious about food recently, even considering testing things with a silver needle.
"Yanyan, where did this milk co from?" she asked, pulling her son to the counter when she had a mont to spare.
"It’s not ours," replied ng Shuyan honestly. "It was given to by my friend."
"When did you start making friends?"
"Just now." The little boy was brimming with excitent as he explained the story at her feet.
Hearing his tale, Tian Sangsang relaxed slightly: "Next ti you see Manman, point her out to so Mommy can take a look at your friend, alright?"
"Okay, Mommy."
Ji Qin, sitting in her sparsely attended shop, watched the bustling scene across the street with jealousy and a growing sense of impending doom.
For two consecutive days, A Bottle of Fragrance’s new Calendula Toning Water had sold exceptionally well, while Ji Qin’s shop went ignored. Not only did their product hydrate skin, but it also controlled oil and provided sun protection! Recently, she’d produced a batch of 300 bottles of rose skincare lotion, but in three days, fewer than 10 had sold. Her business had been completely overshadowed by the shop across the street. This was far below her expectations—stock had piled up, unsold, and losses were on the horizon!
As she pondered ways to recover, a woman with a face full of redness and swelling approached her shop. A sche instantly ford in Ji Qin’s mind!
