She could feel her heart beating faster and faster. Because he was touching up her makeup, Qin Zhou was leaning so close to her that the soft breath escaping from between his lips brushed against her. It was warm, but it scorched her skin.

Too nervous to speak, Liang Yin even found herself breathing carefully.

After wiping some of the botched eye shadow off her eyelids, Qin Zhou applied some brown eye shadow. It was very light, but very natural. He dusted makeup powder over it.

“Done.” He had completed her makeup.

Qin Zhou handed her the vanity mirror. Liang Yin picked it up and looked into it.

“Oh God!”

What a masterful touch-up technique! Originally, her makeup was very stiff. To use a phrase she hesitated to say, it was very dusty and thick. However, after Qin Zhou’s skillful application, unexpectedly, it was transformed into something quite exquisite.

“Nice.”

Liang Yin felt a little ashamed. Even a man was better at putting on makeup than her. Her capability in this area was… hopeless!

The man smiled and said, “I think with your qualifications, outside of special occasions, you’d look much better without makeup.”

Liang Yin’s blush deepened.

“What would you like to eat?” Qin Zhou asked, “As I recall, you like western food?”

“Uh huh.”

“I know of a nice restaurant. I’ll take you there.”

When Liang Yin heard this, she asked in confusion, “Why… why did you invite me to dinner?”

“Oooh…” Qin Zhou started the car and turned the wheel. “Actually, nothing happened to us that night,” he said.

“What?” Liang Yin was stunned for a few seconds, but she quickly realized what Qin Zhou was referring to. She immediately said, “Oh, this matter! It’s actually nothing. I… haven’t thought too much about it!”

“It’s better for the person involved to explain such things personally.”

Liang Yin was faintly disappointed. It felt as though Qin Zhou was trying his best to clear the air, trying to explain there was no special association between them. Actually, there was no need to explain. She did not let her imagination run wild. With the explanation, however, it was as if he wanted to draw a clear line between them!

“I know. And I won’t pester you over this matter…” Liang Yin said this because she thought that Qin Zhou was worried she would pester him about this.

Qin Zhou knew what she was thinking and was in no hurry to explain. Instead, he said calmly, “That morning, the things I said… they didn’t mean anything. They were just a test.”

“Eh?”

“Because the moment I woke up and interacted with you, I sensed that you weren’t Hua Jin.”

The manager continued, “But I wasn’t sure. So, I had to verify. Sure enough, you guys had switched back! That’s a good thing, too. It’s worth celebrating! So let’s call this dinner a celebration and an apology for overstepping my boundaries.”

Liang Yin nodded, blushing. She was especially nervous. Prince Charming was sitting right next to her. How could she not be nervous?

The car sped towards its destination. They pulled up at an extremely elegant western restaurant. Liang Yin looked up, but saw a series of English letters on the signboard, but they were not in English.

French?

Qin Zhou walked around to the passenger side and opened the door for her. Liang Yin got out and pointed to the sign. “What kind of… western restaurant is this?”

“This is French food. Three-star Michelin.”

“What’s Michelin? Don’t they sell tires?”

The man was dumbfounded. After a half second of stunned silence, he burst out laughing.
