Feeling Xiaofan's skilled technique, along with those gentle movements, Shen Zuimo surprisingly found a very familiar sensation. His eyes naturally closed.

It was strange, how did he know what kind of shampooing method I liked, and how did he know the strength I needed? Also, why did his hands feel so familiar?

"How is it, still that familiar feeling, right?"

"Have you washed my hair before?"

"Yeah, when you were shot and couldn't touch water, you even forced me to wash it for you with a knife, and you wouldn't let me look. You were so lazy back then, you even wanted me to feed you..."

"Nonsense."

Another strange yet warm scene. Why does this guy's words describe the kind of life I long for? If everything were true, then even if it's him, perhaps I could accept it.

What if? This is all true, and it has already happened.

He washed my hair, blew it dry, and then let the stylist create some curls. The whole aura was immediately elevated to the extreme.

The men in the entire hair salon almost couldn't move their eyes.

Shen Zuimo also stared at herself in the mirror, feeling a bit complicated. Looking good again, what's the point? It's just a shell.

"Alright, the next destination."

"What now?"

"To buy shoes. You need to change those sneakers. This is the Capital City, not Yanhuang Soul. Let's change your clothes when we get back, and let's go have a seafood feast."

How long has it been? Shen Zuimo has forgotten the last time she wore nice clothes, changed into nice high heels. She had even neglected her hair, usually just washing and blowing it dry without thinking of caring for it.

The two of them shopped for a long time in the Capital City, then Xiaofan drove Shen Zuimo to the luxury house bought for over ten million. She took a bath, and Xiaofan insisted that Shen Zuimo change into the dress bought today, along with the new high heels.

When Shen Zuimo finished changing and walked downstairs, the breathtaking scene once again appeared in Xiaofan's view.

At this moment, Shen Zuimo wore a deep red slim long dress, the upper part had Western style while the lower part incorporated features of a cheongsam. The long, flawless legs and the crystal-clear high-heeled sandals made a pleasing sound as they tapped against the ground, complemented by her innate grace, every gesture could drive men crazy.

"It's a bit too revealing, feels like a waste..."

Looking at the deep V-neckline, and the exposed fair and smooth back, Xiaofan frowned slightly.

"Hmm?"

"Nothing, you look great."

The scars on her back were covered, making her look like a perfect ten out of ten beauty.

"Where to?"

"Obviously not to a street food joint, let's go, I've already booked the place."

The car stopped in front of the Venerate Emperor.

Since the attack on Ye Dahe last time, Venerate Emperor has been renovated. It's still a top restaurant in the Capital City, and the unpleasant incident didn't result in a lack of patrons. On the contrary, it's still as busy as ever. Otherwise, Xiaofan wouldn't have needed to book in advance.

Alright, the moment Shen Zuimo stepped into Venerate Emperor, everyone within ten meters around her quieted down, and every step forward brought more eyes upon her.

And every pair of eyes seemed to be fixed, moving only as Shen Zuimo walked, as if nothing else could divert their gaze again.

"Hello Mr. Ye, you booked table sixty-two, I'll take you there now."

"Thank you."

If not for the waiter and Xiaofan saying something, others wouldn't have noticed Xiaofan beside Shen Zuimo at all. He was just too obstructive, like a blooming flower being flown over by a pest.

Alright, this metaphor may have taken away our protagonist's elegance, but it highlights Zuimo's brilliance in another sense.

"You've already decided to dine at this kind of place? Why are you dressed so casually?"

"Hmm? I just like this feeling, look at those people's eyes, that envy, jealousy, and hatred. Each one wants to kill me and replace me by your side, this feeling is exhilarating." Xiaofan shamelessly muttered.

"So shameless."

"It's not shameless, you know. Tonight, you're the star, I'm just here to accompany you. Enjoy today's life, these people's eyes are telling you that you can have this kind of life. Remember this feeling, in the near future, it'll be yours."

Unexpectedly, Shen Zuimo felt that her icy heart was fiercely touched again, and this time, she even had an urge to cry.

Impossible, is there still something in this world that could make me cry?

Even until they were inside and finished ordering, the side glances never stopped. Those so-called high-class gentlemen could barely contain their excitement. If not for Xiaofan being there, they'd have probably come over to chat.

"Zuimo..."

"Hmm?"

"I want to play a game, I'll pretend to go to the toilet later. Do you think more than twenty men will come to ask for your number?"

"Boring...."

"Just try it."

"Not interested."

"Hmm, better not try, or if you really fall for some guy and leave with him, who would I cry to? Hmm, this can't be played with."

"Are you bored every day?" Shen Zuimo glanced at Xiaofan, clearly having no interest in such matters.

"Life is always bitter anyway, so we can only seek some things amidst that bitterness that make us happy. This seafood meal is what I owe you, when you were injured, you couldn't eat seafood for fear of it fester, later when you healed, there was always a pile of things and never the time. Now, this is for you."

"Waiter, bring two more of these crabs..." Shen Zuimo ignored what Xiaofan said about the past, she was already diving into the food.

This is in a crowded place, if it were like before when they lived together, they'd probably fight over a crab claw.

"Hey..."

"Hmm?"

"I still can't find a way to like you. Don't waste your efforts." As she ate, Shen Zuimo suddenly looked up at Xiaofan and said, "To be honest, sometimes I have the urge to get rid of you."

"What I'm doing now has nothing to do with whether you like me or not. As I said, tonight you're the main character. Enjoy it, we'll have to go back tomorrow." Xiaofan softly replied.

To love someone doesn't require making them love you in return, as long as she is well, that's enough.

"Mr. Ye, this is the room card for room 808 you booked for tonight, please keep it..." At this moment, the server handed a room card to Xiaofan.

And Shen Zuimo's actions halted again, she looked coldly at Xiaofan. What's with booking a hotel room? Could he be thinking of... that?
