Chapter 2456: Blushing and Heartbeating
But Shen Yuelan is different. She belongs to the minority among the minority. Every time she encounters various unfair treatment and bullying, she can turn her grief and anger into strength, becoming more and more courageous with each setback.
She knew in her heart that for her from a poor family, studying was the only opportunity that could change her destiny.
What's more, as a girl, God has ruthlessly deprived her of her greatest capital to compete with the world, so she must firmly seize the only opportunity in life that can change her destiny.
When a person is too obsessed with a goal, he can often ignore all the factors around him that interfere with his goal.
For Shen Yuelan, higher and better academic qualifications and richer knowledge are her only goals in life and the motivation to live hard.
As for other things in life, such as the various pastimes and entertainment favored by peers, and even the most passionate love affairs of adolescent boys and girls, they are all unimportant.
It's not that she doesn't want to relax, have fun, and have a beautiful relationship, but life is so realistic that she has no capital to have fun, and she tasted the pain of love earlier.
Therefore, she has been closing her heart for a long time, rejecting all kinds of distracting thoughts around her that would tempt her to stop, even if they are just the simplest instincts for ordinary people.
The greatest human instinct, apart from eating, drinking and urinating, is only love for the purpose of procreating offspring.
Before meeting Lin Tian, she had already prepared to live alone for the rest of her life. She would never have any thoughts about any man again. Anyway, all men in the world are the same.
But Lin Tian's appearance opened small holes in her thick heart.
On the way back today, she was still at war with nature in her heart, constantly denying Lin Tian, thinking that he was actually just an ordinary man, like those men who disgusted her.
In the debate in her mind, denial finally gained the upper hand. After all, she was left walking on thin ice by the ruthless reality, and she was no longer willing to bear the slightest bit of hurt in her heart.
But now... just now...
The idea she had just affirmed wavered again...
"Well, can I touch your face with my hands? Because now that the liquid has dried, using a brush won't work at all. It seems I can only use my fingers."
"Or I'll find you a mirror,
You can do it yourself with your hands. "Just when Shen Yuelan was stunned, Lin Tian said again.
"It's okay. I just reacted too much. I don't mind. You can do it." Shen Yuelan calmed down, raised her head, and said.
"Well, then I'll start." Lin Tian nodded, stretched out his hand, and gently pressed and pulled the few areas on Shen Yuelan's face that were not evenly applied.
In fact, Lin Tian had touched Shen Yuelan's body several times today and even held her hand several times.
But the meaning represented by it was completely different. When Lin Tian came into contact with her body, he often just touched her accidentally.
Holding her hand was similar to holding a child across the street. It was purely an act based on the needs of the moment and would not be associated with anything else.
But touching the face is different. Normally, it is a behavior that only occurs when the relationship is very close, such as between lovers, or between men and women who are in an ambiguous relationship.
That's why Lin Tian felt really sorry for his behavior and felt that it was his fault, because in his heart, he had never looked at Shen Yuelan differently.
To her, Shen Yuelan was no different from other girls. They were all objects that needed respect and care from men.
The only difference is that her appearance is not as good as that of most girls, but this is not enough to affect anything.
While doing it, Lin Tian explained it to Shen Yuelan, telling her that although the liquid was quickly absorbed into the skin of her face.
However, it will take some time for the medicinal solution to work inside the skin. During this time, the medicinal solution dries up and forms a thin film on the face, which acts to seal the pores and prevent the medicinal solution from evaporating.
That's why he needed to repair the areas that were not done properly to prevent the potion's effectiveness from slowly evaporating from those areas.
Shen Yuelan didn't listen to Lin Tian's explanation at all. She felt the touch of Lin Tian's fingers. Even though there were layers of liquid film, she could still feel the temperature of his fingertips.
In fact, because he had to do it carefully with his fingers, Lin Tian leaned forward and shortened the distance between them.
Although it was far from being close to each other, Shen Yuelan could clearly smell the scent emanating from Lin Tian that was unique to him.
That smell stirred her heart even more than Lin Tian's direct gaze before, making her heart beat faster.
Coupled with Lin Tian's fingers caressing his face and his eyes staring closely at her, Shen Yuelan was completely intoxicated in this wonderful atmosphere.
While Shen Yuelan was immersed in it, she didn't notice the approaching footsteps at all. When Xia Yurou came out of the house not far away and happened to meet her, she instantly showed a panicked look.
There is an extremely strange feeling in my heart...
It was as if she had become a third party and intervened in the relationship between Lin Tian and Xia Yurou, but was caught while enjoying the sweetness and tenderness...
Although Shen Yuelan knew very well that with her appearance, she couldn't sell herself as a maid, let alone a mistress, but that feeling was just like that.
Shen Yuelan didn't have much experience in communicating with people, and was not very good at hiding her emotions. Moreover, she was in a state of panic, so the expression on her face was obviously noticed by Lin Tian.
"What's wrong?" Lin Tian asked with concern. He didn't think too much about it, just thinking that Shen Yuelan was not feeling well, was it a problem with the medicine?
"No...no..." Shen Yuelan wanted to say it was nothing, but when the words came to her lips, she became stuttering, which made her even more panicked.
Originally, when she came out of the house, she saw that Lin Tian seemed to be still applying medicine to Shen Yuelan, and heard Lin Tian's words, Xia Yurou also saw Shen Yuelan's panicked look, and she couldn't help but speed up and walked over.
As a result, Shen Yuelan was even more panicked and wanted to dig a crack in the ground and hide in it!
"Yuelan, are you okay?" Xia Yurou came over and said kindly. After just two days of getting along, she already regarded Shen Yuelan as a friend.
Shen Yuelan was completely speechless this time, her face flushed and her whole body was hot.
"Ah! Your face..." Xia Yurou exclaimed when she saw the change in Shen Yuelan's expression.
Shen Yuelan felt something was wrong. Damn it, her blushing face must have been noticed.
