Free Web NovelChapter 638: Chapter 193: Got Taller, Time for Some Sweets_3
Returning to Capital Star, she felt at ease, and her body instinctively wanted to recover through sleep.
She nodded subconsciously, being very obedient.
The mighty Admiral Su ultimately submitted to his body’s strong protest, changed clothes, and climbed into bed to sleep.
Ji Li stared at her face for a while, frowned, and asked Admiral Bai: "Did she forget to remove her makeup?"
"Remove makeup?"
A bunch of burly men in the army, how could they know that women need to remove makeup?
Colonel Yuan said: "Can’t we wait until she wakes up to remove it?"
Ji Li was well aware of women’s obsession with removing makeup. His mom once berated his dad for two hours because he didn’t remove her makeup after she drank too much.
His dad was scolded like a little puppy, barking and swearing to never dare again.
"If she wakes up and finds out her makeup hasn’t been removed, she’ll beat each one of you."
Everyone’s spine chilled, was it really that serious?
"Where’s the makeup removal stuff?" They went to get it.
Forget it, the things they bought might not please Su Xiaocai, and she might want to beat them up as well.
"You’re all tired, get some rest. Xiao Wanzi and I will take care of her." Ji Li turned to ask Xiao Wanzi if there were any makeup removal tools, and Xiao Wanzi scratched his ear: "It’s all used up."
The last two times Su Xiaocai wore makeup, she bought disposable makeup removal wipes, fearing they would be wasted on normal days, she bought them each time she wore makeup.
"Do you remember the brand?" Ji Li asked.
Xiao Wanzi nodded.
Late at night, Ji Li couldn’t go out to buy himself, so he called a busy robot to run errands and deliver.
Admiral Bai and his group couldn’t help, knowing Xiao Wanzi was there, Ji Li couldn’t do much.
So they retreated.
The bodyguard left for Su Xiaocai followed Kaye, taking them to a residence.
Admiral Bai and his men went to a villa in the suburbs.
Colonel Yuan turned to look back at Su Xiaocai, who was sleeping sweetly, and Admiral Bai patted his shoulder, "Boy, some things were given to you, but you couldn’t grasp them. You’ve spent too little time accompanying her."
Colonel Yuan blushed: "Commander, you’ve misunderstood."
"Don’t deny it. Who wouldn’t like a woman who’s pretty, sweet-talking, and extraordinarily powerful?"
When Su Xiaocai isn’t fighting, she’s soft and sweet-smiling, making companionship very comfortable.
Being close to such a wealthy woman, Ji Li is practically the winner in life.
"Really not." Colonel Yuan didn’t know how to express that he felt a strange possessiveness, unhappy with Su Xiaocai getting too close to Ji Li.
Just like when he went out with a very close friend, and suddenly a third person broke in, his good friend focused on talking to that person, making him feel ignored.
He knew this wasn’t love. He feared the friendship boat might capsize because of Ji Li.
He explained: "Professor Su is still young."
Admiral Bai, hands on his back: "So Professor Su is acting spoiled, wanting to be closer, Doctor Ji would at most listen to her a couple of sentences, not dare do anything else."
Men understand men best; those who can endure absolutely would not let their prey fly far away. With so many men escorting Su Xiaocai, some must show a bit of territory.
Su Xiaocai is smart and willing to give the other party a sense of security.
Both sides are fishing for each other, at this stage, nothing can be done.
Simply don’t reveal this layer of relationship, maintaining a proper distance.
Adult love is very complex, yet very simple.
But no, Su Xiaocai is obviously a minor, it’s really strange, they just can’t treat her as a child.
Once Su Xiaocai went to sleep, she slept for five days; except for getting up midway to eat some nutrition pills and go to the toilet, she spent the rest of the time sleeping.
The agreed online time with the vegetable farmers was postponed with Xiao Wanzi’s help. freёwebnovel.com
On the fourth day, she felt all fatigue was swept away, restored to her usual energy.
Getting out of bed, she was startled by the full recycle bin of nutrition pill tubes at her feet.
How many nutrition pills had she consumed?
Xiao Wanzi happily waved his hand, shaking his chubby body, "Caicai, are you awake?"
Su Xiaocai inquired how long she had slept, learning it had been five days, consuming three boxes of nutrition pills.
Feeling it’s terrifying how she had digested all that.
She shook her head, scratching it, feeling her head heavy and feet light.
Walking to the mirror, she looked at her current appearance, her long hair reaching her waist, "Did I really only sleep for five days?"
"Yes!" Xiao Wanzi hugging Huahua, "Look, it hasn’t aged."
Huahua: Thanks, I refuse to be a reference.
Su Xiaocai saw the helplessness on Huahua’s cat face.
She looked at the mirror again.
Her features seemed more mature, her brows and eyes possessed an indescribable allure, no longer fully youthful.
Looking down, her limbs were slender.
Wait, slender limbs?
The mirror showed her now standing at 1.68 meters.
Su Xiaocai: "Hmm?" My goodness, did she grow taller?
She quickly found a ruler to measure, just as Ji Li knocked on the door, she let him in, walked to him, gesturing to compare.
