Chapter 565: The Fragrance of Citrus

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

It was a mess outside. Murong Chen had something to do and chose a random shop to avoid the crowd.

In the end, when he entered, he met the enthusiastic counter lady walking up to him and introducing the products to him with a smile.

“Hello, what do you need? Perhaps you can take a look at the men’s skincare products in our shop, or you can tell me if you have any other requests…”

The lady’s eyes lit up when she saw a handsome man walk into the shop.

Moreover, Murong Chen was dressed like this. It was obvious that he was from a wealthy family. Perhaps she could earn a huge commission today!

“I—” Murong Chen frowned and was about to refuse.

Then, he noticed that he had entered a cosmetics shop and was a little hesitant.

His Little Sister should also need some skincare products… right?

Even the President of Shengjing Corporation was not good at choosing skincare products.

The man standing in front of the cosmetics counter frowned slightly, revealing wrinkles and his slightly troubled thoughts. But even so, his well-tailored suit and cold side profile made him look especially handsome.

It was to the extent that one could not take their eyes off him.

An Nuo stared blankly at Murong Chen in the shop, her mind blank.

It was like a dream. She had never thought that she would meet the other party in such a place.

There was a commotion around them. An Nuo protected her mask and hat and instinctively covered her face tightly. Then, she couldn’t help but look at Murong Chen curiously.

Perhaps this gaze was too strong and direct, so An Nuo received a look from the other party not long after.

Murong Chen and An Nuo’s gazes met in the air, but An Nuo moved her eyes away first. In the next second, when she realized her actions, her face under the mask subconsciously turned red.

Actually, it was nothing…

She bit her lip in frustration, not understanding why she had suddenly looked away first.

However, since they had already seen each other, it didn’t seem very polite not to greet each other.

Fortunately, she was wearing a mask now. She probably wouldn’t let the other party see her blush…

Thoughts swirled in An Nuo’s heart, but she obediently walked into the shop and arrived beside Murong Chen in a few steps.

“Sir, you can also take a look at our latest popular product. It’s very effective against most people’s skin. This is not bad as well…”

The saleswoman’s voice sounded in his ears.

“I’m sorry, but there’s no need. The person I’m waiting for is here. She can tell me.”

When Murong Chen saw An Nuo walking over, he made an excuse to get rid of the counter lady.

He didn’t like sales people who talked so enthusiastically beside him, but he had never had a good excuse to send her away.

An Nuo’s arrival gave Murong Chen a chance to find an excuse.

The shop’s lady also saw An Nuo walk in. With her years of experience, even though An Nuo was wearing a mask and hat, she could still tell that she had a beautiful face.

When she saw this, she could only stop talking regretfully. However, before she left, she sighed.

“Che… So he has a girlfriend.”

These words were naturally a misunderstanding by the shop’s lady, but both Murong Chen and An Nuo, who had just walked over, heard these words.

When An Nuo heard her say this, the embarrassment that had already retreated in her heart showed signs of spreading again. Even her footsteps that were walking over hesitated.

Murong Chen looked even calmer. “I’m sorry. I should have explained more clearly.”

It was not good to taint someone’s innocence. Murong Chen only wanted to prevent the shop’s lady from bothering him further, but he didn’t consider the possibility of being misunderstood by the other party.

“It’s fine, it’s fine.” An Nuo hurriedly waved her hand.

It was all the counter sister’s imagination. How could she blame this on Murong Chen?

However, compared to this, she was more curious about why the other party would appear in such a… place that was especially inconsistent with his identity.

An Nuo thought in her heart, but in the end, she accidentally voiced her doubts.

“After discussing a business deal, I came over on the spur of the moment to buy a gift for Little Sister,” Murong Chen replied.

But now that An Nuo was here, Murong Chen had an idea. “Coincidentally, I remember that the two of you live together. Do you have any recommendations?”

“After all, I… really don’t know how to choose these things.”

Looking at the various cosmetics in front of him, Murong Chen’s eyes, which had always been sharp in the business world, also encountered a problem.

After understanding Murong Chen’s goal, An Nuo nodded very easily and agreed to this matter.

“I’ll help you choose.” She was quite confident in choosing cosmetics.

It was not that she knew the good from the bad after using them so much, but during this period of time, she had received many projects related to cosmetics. An Nuo was also a professional, so she understood more after receiving them and learned a lot about cosmetics.

Moreover, this was Murong Chen choosing a gift for Murong Qiao. She was quite happy to be able to help.

Still…

An Nuo glanced at the shop they were in and gave a negative answer in her heart.

She had indirectly learned about this brand before. The comments were not good, and there would be many sensitive ingredients added to the cosmetics. The price was also expensive and it was as if they were cheats. An Nuo didn’t want to take another look here.

However, it was not good to say such things in front of the counter sister. An Nuo looked around and held Murong Chen’s hand, deciding to pull him out first.

“Let’s choose another store. This one isn’t too good.” An Nuo lowered her voice and explained to Murong Chen, lest the other party think that her actions were a little abrupt.

The surroundings were too noisy, and Murong Chen didn’t hear what An Nuo was saying.

“What?” he asked.

An Nuo had no choice but to lean closer and tell him again, “The cosmetics here are not very useful—”

However, when she got closer and was in the crowd, An Nuo immediately couldn’t stabilize her body and swayed from the crowd beside her.

Seeing that An Nuo was about to be pushed down, Murong Chen had no choice but to reach out and hold her on his side to prevent her from being pushed to the ground and being trampled.

“I’m sorry for offending you,” Murong Chen said in a low voice.

When it was noon, there were naturally more people. It was difficult for An Nuo to pull Murong Chen out, so she could only rely on Murong Chen’s strength to hold her back for the time being and stand by his side.

An Nuo was originally thinking about going to the cosmetics shop on a certain floor to shop and filter out the cosmetics that were suitable for Murong Qiao.

In the end, when she was pulled by Murong Chen, she couldn’t think of anything else.

The tip of her nose was filled with a cold and fragrant pine fragrance, probably with a hint of an imperceptible citrus tune. At such a close distance, An Nuo almost opened her eyes to face the tie on Murong Chen’s chest.

In such an intimate position, An Nuo felt that her face was gradually burning with the rising heat. Moreover, there was an increasingly strong thump in her heart.

She was clearly wearing a hat and mask, but An Nuo felt that her entire face must have turned red. At this moment, her body was even stiffer. She didn’t even dare to raise her head, afraid that Murong Chen would see her embarrassed appearance.

Moreover, when she held Murong Chen’s hand just now, they didn’t separate because of the crowd…

The thoughts in An Nuo’s mind immediately flew around, and she threw her initial thoughts to the back of her mind. She was as obedient as a rabbit that had been burying its head..
