Chapter 27: Shaving Him

Tang Qiaoqiao never expected that her million-fans welfare lottery would cause such a sensation. If she knew, she would have already prepared some extras. Of course, it was also Mao Li, Hu Miao, and Wei Yiqi forwarding that have brought a lot of attention to her.

In fact, why should they come to join the lottery? If they told her, she could just send some to them.

However, Mao Li replied to her in a private message, "You can only send it if my lottery is drawn."

This was the persistence of a foodie.

Because there were too many people in the lottery, it almost caused the lottery system to crash. It took a long time for the result to come out.

【Congratulations to Mao Li, Cat That Loves To Eat, Belong to Qiaoqiao, Big Moon in the Winter, and about 50 users who will receive a box of snack and a signed photo of Tang Qiaoqiao. The only official Weibo lottery tool supervised the draw. The results were fair and effective.】

【Ah ah ah ah ah. I'm really drawn. I will keep my promise to eat vegetables for a month】

【Mao Li actually got it. The chance is 1/500000. Ah, this koi carp. smoking in loneliness.jpg】

【The excitement is theirs, but I got nothing (⊙︿⊙)】

After learning that her lottery was drawn, Mao Li quickly posted a photo of an empty plate and forwarded it to Tang Qiaoqiao. "The address has been sent. I'm waiting."

Tang Qiaoqiao replied, "I'll make sure to send yours first."

【Fuck, pulling hatred】

【My two goddesses are linking. I'm going to cry】

【Both are in the capital city. With same city express delivery, it should arrive soon. Maybe Mao Li will be the first to eat it】

Wei Yiqi forwarded the post enviously, "Sister, give me a bite."

Hu Miao also sent a hateful emoticon. "I'm going to the courier company to rob the delivery!"

【Hu Miao and Wei Yiqi also missed it. I feel comfortable immediately】

【I can imagine Hu Miao jumping around. I also want to rob Tang Qiaoqiao's kitchen】

【How delicious is her cooking? They still remember it after the show?】

【I am one of the people who had the honor to eat the pan-fried buns made by Qiao Bao. Since then, I have become a sugar rabbit. It's not a loss to follow Tang Qiaoqiao, comrades.】

In order to send these snacks as soon as possible, Tang Qiaoqiao mobilized all the servants in the villa to help pack.

Aunt Wang took the phone and read the addresses of the winning netizens, while Tang Qiaoqiao filled it out on the mailing list.

Aunt Wang looked at one of the addresses and said, "The username is "Big Moon in the Winter", and the address is Aoxing Investment, xx Chang'an Street, Beijing? The name of this company seems a bit familiar."

Tang Qiaoqiao continued to fill in the form and said without looking up, "Do you have acquaintances working there?"

Aunt Wang thought for a while. "It seems that I have sent something to this address before. But I am old, so I don't remember clearly."

"Ahem." Shen Yue slid his wheelchair to come over. He clasped his fingers together, put his arms on the armrests of the wheelchair, and said coldly to them, "Don't chat. Hurry up and take it away. The messy boxes are piled here, it's too unsightly."

'So risky, I was almost caught.'

Aunt Wang was right. She really had sent something to this address. Because that was Shen Yue's own company, and he once asked Aunt Wang to send something to the company for him.

Originally, Shen Yue just wanted to lower the winning rate so that both Hu Miao and Wei Yiqi couldn't win, but he didn't expect to get it. The name of the Weibo account that he picked randomly was "Big Moon in the Winter".

But he would never tell Tang Qiaoqiao or allow her to know that he already had a snack at home but went to the lottery draw. Otherwise, her tail would rise to the sky with pride.

Anyway, Shen Yue had to send it to the company first then ask Li Ji to collect it. Later, he would ask him to send it to the villa.

In this way, Tang Qiaoqiao would not find out that he had also participated in the lottery and he would be able to eat another set of snacks.

Perfect!

Tang Qiaoqiao used an expedited express service to ensure that even fans who were not in the capital could receive it within 24 hours.

When Tang Qiaoqiao was busy with the courier, the atmosphere in the Tang family was heavy.

Sitting on the sofa, Tang Rou cried to the point that everyone felt pity. She said, "I really slipped my hands and pressed the like button. I didn't mean anything else. I don't know if Sister Qiaoqiao will misunderstand that I posted that Weibo."

Madam Tang's name was Li Yulan. She was over fifty, but she is thin, and her dangling eyes looked particularly sharp.

She kept comforting Tang Rou, "Rourou, don't cry. I know you must be innocent. Qiaoqiao is not sensible. We told her not to reveal her identity, but she had to make things ugly. Now all the people in the world are talking about it."

After the incident, some good sisters in her noblewoman circle asked her what was going on. Many of them were watching jokes, and they made her lose  face.

Tang Rou had a weak tone and cried, "I can understand that my sister is blaming  me for taking her place. Maybe I should go."

"What nonsense. This is your home. Where else can you go?"

Tang Rou leaned on Li Yulan's shoulders, and she was crying for a long time.

Li Yulan felt cold when thinking of Tang Qiaoqiao. "The dead girl grew up in the countryside, so she lacks education and doesn't know how to open her mind."

"Well, don't talk endlessly. You are annoying."

Tang Da and Li Meilan were completely opposite in shape. He had a big belly, and his face was covered with fat. He has a pair of black-rimmed glasses covering his small eyes.

"I still blame you. Why do we have to recognize her? We didn't bring her up by ourselves, so she must not care about us."

In Tang Da's view, if they took a baby by mistake, it was a mistake. Anyway, he still had two good sons, one of them was studying abroad, and the other one helped him in the company. A daughter would always get married, so it really doesn't matter. The most important thing for his daughter was to marry well to benefit the family and the company in the future.

Li Yulan hummed, "She was born after I carried her for nine months anyway. Since I found her, how can I not recognize her? You didn't give birth to her, so you can say rubbish."

"You gave birth to a fart. She doesn't recognize you as a mother. She hasn't even answered a phone call until now." Tang Da was so angry that smoke was almost rising from his head.

"Mom and Dad, don't quarrel. Otherwise, I will call and explain to her. She is just angry with me and won't blame you." Tang Rou always looked reasonable.

"What you should do now is to adjust your emotions and comfort Shen Liang and his parents." Li Yulan is actually most concerned about this, "What is the attitude of Shen Liang's parents now?"

Tang Rou lowered her eyes, "Shen Liang said that uncle and aunt are a little angry. You might be asked to explain it at that time."

"What, this is terrible. I will call now." Tang Da and Li Yulan's biggest wish was to get close to Shen Liang.

When Shen Liang inherited the company, won't he become the prince of the Shen Group by then? Then their Tangda Company could sit back and relax on the big ship of the Shen Group.

Tang Da glared at his wife. "It seems insincere to speak on the phone. Tomorrow we will come to visit in person."

"Yes." Li Yulan nodded in agreement. "I have to buy gifts. Hu Hong likes jades the most. I have to pick a few good ones."

Tang Da: "We will talk about it with Shen Liang's parents tomorrow, but we must meet Tang Qiaoqiao now. We must warn her not to talk nonsense. Otherwise, we will have problems."

Li Yulan: "But the dead girl won't answer the phone, and is not replying to WeChat either."

Tang Da pinched out the cigarette butt and picked up the phone. "I'll call. I will call Shen Yue."

Tang Rou took a tissue and wiped her tears, covering the corners of her mouth.

Not surprisingly, Tang Qiaoqiao would receive a call from Tang Da. After neglecting them for a long time, he finally couldn't hold back. She made the Tang family lose such a big face in the wealthy circle of the capital.

It's just that she didn't expect that he would call Shen Yue.

Shen Yue wanted to hang up directly, but Tang Qiaoqiao took it and informed the other side, "I will come."

Shen Yue frowned. "You want to go back to the Tang family's house?"

"Yes, they made more than 50 calls, and now President Tang Da has lowered himself to call me. I have to go." Tang Qiaoqiao looked relaxed as if she was talking about other people's affairs.

Shen Yue was puzzled. "You know their purpose. Why would you want to go?"

"I am going because I know. If I don't just make things clear, I will be annoyed by their antics in the future." Tang Qiaoqiao understood the nature of the Tang family. They would do anything for profit.

After hearing this, Shen Yue did not dissuade her.

Tang Qiaoqiao opened the closet in the room to pick out clothes. This time, she must be vigorous. What should she wear?

She flipped it over and picked out a black v-neck dress, which was simple in tailoring but extraordinarily elegant. "Is this good-looking?" Tang Qiaoqiao pressed it to her body.

Shen Yue did not answer this question but replied with a sentence. "I will go with you."

"Huh?" Tang Qiaoqiao opened her mouth in disbelief, "You want to accompany me?"

Shen Yue was very dissatisfied with her reaction and laughed at himself. "Why? Because I am crippled, it would be shameful?"

"Of course not, but..." Tang Qiaoqiao hesitated to say, "But… are you willing to go out?" After all, Shen Yue hadn’t stepped out of the villa for more than four months. How could she not be surprised if he was willing to make an exception for her?

"You underestimate me. What is so terrible about going out?"

Tang Qiaoqiao sneered, 'Oh, right, I don't know who sent off the guests behind closed doors last time.'

Shen Yue raised his eyebrows. "If I don't accompany you, I'm afraid those low-lives of the Tang family will swallow you up."

"So you are trying to give me courage?" Tang Qiaoqiao squatted in front of him, raising her eyes to look at him.

He was considering her safety, and this feeling suddenly made her feel very strange.

Shen Yue looked at her eager eyes and just wanted to say that there is no need to be so moved. He will be less grumpy in the future.

Before he could speak, he heard the squatting woman suddenly say, "I didn't feed you in vain during this time."

Shen Yue was choked.

'Don't take yourself so highly!'

Shen Yue urged, "If you want to go, change your clothes quickly. Just wear this one. It's all the same anyway."

"What are you talking about? I suspect you have eye problems." Tang Qiaoqiao was really angry, and she straightened her chest. Although she had a slender figure, this black dress would definitely show some of her assets, but the dress she was wearing now is too loose to see anything.

Shen Liang glanced at her upper body, but his expression was still indifferent.

Tang Qiaoqiao: 'So angry.'

Tang Qiaoqiao was about to change clothes, and Shen Yue was about to leave, but she quickly grabbed his wheelchair and said, "Since we are going together, you have to promise me one thing."

"Say it."

"Shave." Tang Qiaoqiao said seriously.

Shen Yue raised his eyebrows. "You dislike me?"

"I definitely don't dislike you. But I wanted you to shave a long time ago. Having a beard is a decadent beauty, but not having a beard is more imposing, right? Don't hesitate. Let's go." Tang Qiaoqiao immediately pushed Shen Yue back to his bedroom and went straight to the bathroom.

She looked at the washstand, found the razor, and stretched it over towards Shen Yue's chin.

Shen Yue's temples pulsed. He grabbed the razor and said speechlessly, "You want to murder your husband?"

Tang Qiaoqiao was dumbfounded, 'Isn't it used that way?'

"Get that shaving cream." Shen Yue pointed to the washstand.

So Tang Qiaoqiao felt like she had to see this.

Shen Yue got the shaving cream, did not move his hand, and looked at her dryly.

Tang Qiaoqiao was puzzled. "Shave."

He was angry. " How can I shave if you don't go out?"

"I'm looking at you here. In case you need to find a towel and get some water or something, it will be inconvenient for you." Tang Qiaoqiao took it for granted.

In the world of her previous life, it was popular for men to grow beards when they became adults. She had never seen them shave.

So she was really curious about how a man shaved.

Shen Yue looked at the mirror on the opposite side. Tang Qiaoqiao was standing next to his wheelchair with a towel in her hand. Her studious eyes looked extremely pure, and he suddenly felt that he was thinking too much.

"If you want to see it, come and shave for me." Shen Yue suddenly thought of mischief.

"Aren't you afraid that my hand will shake and I will cut your face?" Tang Qiaoqiao's eager thoughts couldn't be concealed.

"You are sure to cure my leg that doctors all over the world can't cure. What are you afraid of?"

"That’s true."

So Tang Qiaoqiao happily unscrewed the shaving cream and lightly applied it to his chin. She lightly smeared a layer of white foam.

At this time, the two people were very close. The breath of each other blended into one.

Shen Yue could clearly see the woman's trembling eyelashes because of the slight tension. He saw her biting the half of her lower lip and also saw a small mole on the corner of her eye.

Shen Yue suddenly felt that his breathing was a little messy, but was interrupted the next second.

"Wow, it's so cool. You can see the foam and stubble are all shaved away." The woman's mind was all on his jaw.

Shen Yue: ...

'What kind of charming and ambiguous atmosphere is this? Go to hell.'

The dense steel ball, Tang Qiaoqiao, didn't know Shen Yue's complicated thoughts at all. All she was thinking about was shaving him.

Although she had spiritual power and was impossible to miss, she was still very cautious.

The white foam was shaved clean after a few swipes. She cleaned everything with obsessive-compulsive attention.

Then Tang Qiaoqiao wiped off some foam on the edges and corners of his face with a towel.

Then, Shen Yue's clean face finally appeared before her eyes.

In fact, Shen Yue's beard was not very heavy before. Even with some stubble, it only gave him a mature and wild temperament.

However, at this moment, her eyes lingered on his white, thin, clean jaw without a trace of scum. The tip of her nose also smelled the fresh and nice-scented shaving cream.

Without the stubble, his handsomeness suddenly improved by several degrees.

Shen Yue's temperament was cold. He had a more refined and educated aura without a beard.

Tang Qiaoqiao found that her heartbeat unexpectedly sped up.

The ancients said, "No one looks better than Pan An, who caused a group of women to threw fruits and stained the carriage." That is also roughly the case with Shen Yue.

---

[T/N: Pan An is a well-known handsome man in Chinese history. It is said that Pan An is famous for his stunning looks. In order to get a glimpse of Pan An's beauty, people gather from the streets and alleys every time Pan An travels across their city.

Among those who admire Pan An's beauty, there are people of all ages. In order to express their admiration for Pan An, many women who admire Pan An will throw some flowers and fruits on the carriage he rides. The logic is that fruits are more expensive/precious than flowers.]
