Chapter 696: I Keep Feeling His Gaze at Me Is Strange

Looking at Ji Hanyu, Bai Haoxue couldn’t help but laugh and stuck out her tongue playfully at him, "Haha, you can’t punish me now, serves you right."Ji Hanyu: "..."

"Hey, how do you think this outfit looks on me?" A girl next to her asked her best friend.

"Hmm, this color might look a bit aging on you; you should pick a fresher, brighter one."

"I’ve been staying up too late recently, and my skin isn’t in the best condition, so bright colors don’t really suit me."

"Same here, my skin has been in terrible condition lately."

"Why don’t we go for a skincare treatment first, then hit up the designer stores for some good skincare, cosmetics?"

"Sounds good, but don’t buy too many random products, or you’ll face some serious consequences.

Zhuang Yunge’s face got completely wrecked because of makeup and skincare overload. I heard she has to go to H Country for plastic surgery."

"Oh my god, it’s that bad? I missed the Zhuang Family banquet that day, but I heard Zhuang Yunge’s face scared all the guests away."

"It’s not that exaggerated, but Zhuang Yunge’s face is definitely ruined, covered in huge sores, and she keeps scratching at it until it’s unrecognizable.

I heard from the Zhuang Family’s maids that they’re contacting the most authoritative plastic surgeon in H Country to send her for surgery."

"Ew... that’s so tragic! But she had it coming... Always acting like she’s the most beautiful woman in the world, strutting around like some arrogant peacock."

"Exactly, I’ve heard that since her face got ruined, everyone pretends to be concerned, but secretly they’re all just watching the show, wondering how Zhuang Yunge can stay so proud now?"

"Do you think I should go see her too?"

"Forget it, the Zhuang Family is closing their doors to everyone, not letting anyone in."

The two girls chatted as they walked out of the mall.

"The Zhuang Family closing their doors, not letting anyone in?" Bai Haoxue mumbled to herself, "Why? Just because of Zhuang Yunge’s face?"

"Maybe Zhuang Yan is too concerned about his reputation," Ji Hanyu said.

Bai Haoxue, "I used to have a pretty good impression of Zhuang Yan, especially since everyone praised him.

But now, I find him less and less impressive, even fake and kind of odd."

"Odd..." Ji Hanyu nodded in agreement, "He is indeed quite odd."

Bai Haoxue, "I remember when I toasted him that day, the way he looked at me was strange.

But I thought, he probably wanted to match you with his daughter, and suddenly discovered I was already your wife, so it’s natural he felt upset, which is why I let it go."

Bai Haoxue checked the time, "Let’s go back, after all, we won’t have any more dealings with the Zhuang Family in the future, no need to worry about them."

Bai Haoxue and Ji Hanyu hadn’t been back at the villa for long when Chu Yin’er came out of the lab.

This time it was Xiao Bei who was more anxious for results, as soon as Chu Yin’er came out, he asked, "Yin’er, how is it? Did you find anything new?

These past two days you were researching inside, I checked my research results again and found nothing was overlooked."

Chu Yin’er washed her face at the sink, and Bai Haoxue said, "Miss Chu, you should really catch up on sleep."

Chu Yin’er shook her head, "I’m fine, I’m feeling really good right now."

"So, you’ve fully completed your research?" Xiao Bei asked.

To spend so much time in the lab and come out in such high spirits could only mean the research is complete...
