Chapter 531: Something Must Be Wrong (3)

Qi Yunzhi and Chu Lingxiu were in the same major, so they could always go to and from class together.

When Shen Nian returned, she saw that Qi Yunzhi and Chu Lingxiu had clearly grown much closer than they were that morning and were chatting idly.

"Xiao Nian, you’re back!"

Seeing Shen Nian come in, both Qi Yunzhi and Chu Lingxiu looked up at her in pleasant surprise.

"Yeah? What’s got you two so happy?"

"Of course we’re happy! Don’t you know?"

"Know what?"

"About the military training! We were originally supposed to do it as soon as school started, but because of a few small issues, it’s been postponed until the beginning of next semester. It’s great news!"

Shen Nian smiled. ’So that’s what it was about.’ Xu Zhe had mentioned it in class earlier, but she hadn’t paid it much mind.

"It’s just at a different time. Don’t we still have to do it?"

"It’s not the same at all! It’s so hot to do military training in this weather, and we’d definitely get a tan! Next semester will be completely different!"

"Well, just don’t complain that it’s too cold next semester!"

"Uh... I won’t, I definitely won’t! I’d rather be a little cold than get a nasty tan!"

Shen Nian smiled. That was a worry she didn’t seem to have. Ever since she’d gotten her "space," her skin had only gotten better and better. She could spend an entire day out in the sun and not have to worry about getting a tan or a sunburn.

"Wow, Xiao Nian, I didn’t really notice until now, but how is your skin so good! Even this close, I can’t see a single flaw! And I’m sure I didn’t see you putting on any makeup this morning!"

Qi Yunzhi leaned in closer to get a better look as she spoke, her eyes filled with envy.

What girl doesn’t want to be pretty and have good skin?

Although Chu Lingxiu had already been forgiven by Shen Nian, she was still a little reserved around her because of what had happened before.

However, after hearing what Qi Yunzhi said, Chu Lingxiu couldn’t help but steal a few more glances at Shen Nian.

She was most envious of girls with good skin, especially since her own complexion had never been very good.

’Ugh, I really regret starting trouble with Shen Nian before,’ she thought. ’Otherwise, given the relationship between the Chu Family and Shen Nian, I would have just gone up and asked her for skincare advice ages ago. But now... it feels a little embarrassing.’

Chu Lingxiu didn’t say a word, but Shen Nian could feel it. She couldn’t help it—Chu Lingxiu’s stare was just that intense.

With that thought, Shen Nian glanced over at Chu Lingxiu. One look was all it took to understand the reason behind her intense gaze.

"I know a formula that can improve your skin. Once I’ve made a batch, I can let you both try it."

Shen Nian wasn’t lying. Among the medicinal formulas left behind by her "convenient" master in the space, there were quite a few for beauty and skincare.

Her "convenient" master hadn’t been interested in such things, but she certainly was.

’Even if I don’t need it, so many other people do! If I can figure out the formula, and add the effects of the Spiritual Spring Water, I bet it would be a huge hit if I launched it on the market!’

At the thought, Shen Nian grew more and more excited. Her own gaze, as she looked at Qi Yunzhi and Chu Lingxiu, became much more intense.

’I really have them to thank for this,’ she thought. ’Otherwise, I might not have had this inspiration at all!’

"No way! Xiao Nian, you know how to make skincare products? You’re amazing!"
