Chapter 648: Chapter 88: The Failed Honey Trap_2 Chapter 648: Chapter 88: The Failed Honey Trap_2 The two went upstairs, only to hear Lin Ning say:
“Ruoxi, help with my makeup. I want the kind that can enchant n to death.”
“Leave it to !” Hearing it was sothing she was good at, Xie Ruoxi imdiately beca proud and vigorously patted her chest.
Seeing her patting her chest, Lin Ning suddenly felt a bit inexplicably dejected, but she quickly cheered up and comforted herself silently:
Don’t be afraid! Speaking of figures, Sister Zhao’s is even more exaggerated, and it’s not like the captain’s attitude towards her is anything special. The captain is definitely not so kind of cow man!
When they arrived at the study, Xie Ruoxi brought out a large makeup kit from the cupboard, laid everything out on the computer desk: foundation, eyeliner, gel… Lin Ning was also quick to action, washing her face in the bathroom and tying up her hair, making it easier for the makeup artist Ruoxi to work.
Xie Ruoxi plugged in the curling iron and asked casually:
“Why did you agree just now?”
“Agree to what… Oh, the honey trap?” Lin Ning’s face reddened slightly as she replied shyly, “Everyone wants to know what the captain did this ti, but they’re all too embarrassed to ask, so soone has to step up, right?”
“Do you want to know yourself?” Xie Ruoxi picked up the powder brush.
“Of course,” Lin Ning said, “I need to monitor whether he has done anything to let the team down.”
“Ningning is really concerned about the captain,” Xie Ruoxi said with a smile.
“I, I am not!” Lin Ning felt her rebuttal was weak, and stubbornly added, “Like I said: everyone is worried about the captain but too embarrassed to say it, so soone has to take responsibility to speak up, right?”
“Yes.” Xie Ruoxi sighed with a hint of sorrow, “Ah, why do I always… I really wish I could be like you.”
Lin Ning fell silent for a mont:
“Ruoxi…”
“What’s up?”
“You too…” Lin Ning asked carefully, “Are you worried about the captain?”
“Yeah.” Xie Ruoxi gave a short reply.
“Since when?” Lin Ning felt sothing drop in her heart yet it seed to tighten, she could no longer tell the difference.
“A long, long ti ago, I guess, I’ve forgotten,” Xie Ruoxi said calmly, with steady hands still working, “The captain has always been the type to cause concern, it’s normal to worry about him.”
“So you…”
Xie Ruoxi suddenly felt so regret, thinking she shouldn’t be telling Ningning so much about herself, so she deliberately said:
“But speaking of which, using a honey trap this ti, won’t the captain think you like him so much that you can’t help throwing yourself at him?”
“Of course not!” Lin Ning fell for it and imdiately clarified, “First of all, I don’t like him, OK? And even if the captain thinks so, it’s just wishful thinking on his part! If he misunderstands that I like him, it ans he’s interested in , that’s why he’s fantasizing!”
“Indeed,” Xie Ruoxi said with an apologetic smile, “Ningning, you’re so beautiful, the captain is definitely going to fall for it.”
“I’m not using a honey trap!” Lin Ning blushed a bit, then changed her statent, “It’s normal for girls to love beauty, right? It’s very normal for to wear makeup, isn’t it?”
“Absolutely.” Xie Ruoxi echoed, “Wearing makeup is normal, and if the captain gets carried away, that’s his problem, not ours.”
“Yeah, yeah.” Lin Ning had no more to say, but her mind started to wander.
She had more or less already sensed the others’ feelings for the captain. It’s just that so things, even if you know the answer in your heart, can still evoke so strange emotions when you hear soone else say it out loud.
Ah, it’s all the captain’s fault! Why did he have to attract so many girls!
“All done.” After busily working for a while, Xie Ruoxi said with satisfaction.
Lin Ning, looking at her reflection in the mirror, saw her beautiful makeup that was perfect for a bare-faced look. If not observed closely, it was nearly impossible to see any trace of makeup on her face.
“Thank you, Ruoxi.” She stood up happily, only to hear the sound of the door opening downstairs.
————————
Since the Cultivators’ Competition had not started yet, Yan Yu, after receiving his mission, continued southward, returning to the Mysterious Realm by Sword Control from Jinling.
Even though not much ti had actually passed, he felt as if it had been a long ti since he had seen the team mbers.
After his return, he first handed over the River Origin Purifying Bottle to Yun Jin for her to refine and take possession, then he would check the training progress of the other girls and reorganize the battle plans.
Alas, there’s no helping it. As the Lu Kingdom Divine General, it’s his responsibility to eradicate the great enemies of the Lu Country, and as the team captain, he must also take care of the life plans for the young girls on his team. As they say, “To whom much is given, much is required,” my schedule is this fulfilling and aningful!
Yan Yu returned to the Mysterious Realm, pushed open his room door, and shouted:
“Ladies, your captain is back!”
“The captain is back?” Su Yunjin ran over to bring him slippers.
While taking off his shoes, Yan Yu asked with curiosity:
“Where’s Ningning?”
Usually, Ningning was the fastest to greet him upon his return, so why had it changed to Yun Jin this ti?
Upon hearing his question, Su Yunjin’s smile remained unchanged as she gently asked:
“Did I do sothing wrong?”
Yan Yu imdiately felt an indescribable pressure. If it were an ordinary person, they might be sweating profusely, but who was he? Would he let the likes of Yun Jin pressure him? He spoke with deep earnestness:
“Yun Jin, there is indeed sothing you’ve done wrong, which is that you are too sensitive. I was just a bit hungry and wanted to know if there was anything at ho to eat.”
