C946 I'll Buy This Towel
Baby boy rolled his eyes and ignored the old man. He walked to Jian Xi. He asked the old man to put the water on the ground and used his tender hands to grab the towel. It was soaked in the water. The cold water was not bone-piercing. Especially for the effect, the old man even added ice cubes.
Seeing baby boy being so sensible at such a young age, the old man could not help but feel his heart ache. Squatting down, he grabbed baby boy's hand, took the towel, and threw it into the basin. He looked at Qu Yichen, who was sitting beside him, and said. "What are you looking at? What are you waiting for? You don't have the face to do that. Besides you, there's only one old man and one young man here. What, you want us to make a move?! Seriously, don't you look at the little kid? Look... His hands are all red from the cold."
Qu Yichen did not know whether to laugh or cry, but he looked at baby boy's hands, which had turned red from the cold. He could not bear to let such a young child do it. He looked at Jian Xi, who had fainted on the chair. Qu Yichen shook his head again. He really did not understand how a mother like her could exist. Perhaps it was because of Jian Xi, this unreliable mother, that baby boy was so sensible and mature at such a young age. Occasionally, his views were not childish at all. He saw things more deeply than ordinary adults.
Qu Yichen reached out and put his hand into the water. Only then did he realize that the water was really not ordinary cold. He had just taken it out from the fridge after freezing it! After wringing the water from the towel, Qu Yichen walked in front of Jian Xi. He put the towel on Jian Xi's face and the bone-chilling cold woke her up in an instant. The sudden darkness in front of her eyes made her subconsciously afraid. Her hands grabbed everywhere. She accidentally heard a "Pa."
She took away the thing on her face and saw Qu Yichen looking at her with a gloomy face. When the old man saw the expression on Qu Yichen's face, he laughed without restraint.
"This is the second time you slap me!" Qu Yichen gritted his teeth and said while staring at Jian Xi.
He had helped her out of good intentions, but he did not expect this woman to actually...
Jian Xi blinked her eyes and tried to figure out what Qu Yichen meant. She suddenly realized the sound of a slap and then looked at Qu Yichen's face, which was as black as the bottom of a pot.
"Sorry, sorry, I did not do it on purpose. I really did not do it on purpose." Jian Xi quickly apologized.
"Mommy, you just fainted. It was Uncle who helped you. Grandpa said that he could wake Mommy up with cold water." baby boy also said with a strange expression on his face.
Uh...
Jian Xi suddenly did not know what to say. She looked at Qu Yichen again and her eyes were burning with anger. Jian Xi was really worried that Qu Yichen would be too angry and also reached out to slap her.
"That, I am really sorry. I really did not do it on purpose." That was a completely subconscious action of hers.
"Remember, there won't be a next time!" Qu Yichen said with a cold face.
"Remember this, I will definitely remember this!" In the future, she must stay as far away from him as possible. If she slapped him again, Jian Xi was not sure if Qu Yichen would really make a move.
When Qu Yichen stood up and turned around to sit by the side, Jian Xi then let out a sigh of relief. "What happened to me just now?" Jian Xi asked in puzzlement.
"Did you smell a purple flower when you came in?" The old man asked.
Jian Xi nodded but did not understand what this had to do with her fainting.
"That's called Zi Jin, it's a herb that has the same effect as the sedative! It is not easy for the fragrance to spread in all directions, but if one were to approach and smell its fragrance, it would be like you!"
Jian Xi did not know how to react when she heard the old man's explanation. What kind of poisonous grass was planted in her yard? If she accidentally smelled it and no one was at home, then she would be lying on the ground like a corpse.
"But girl! You are too ugly. Coincidentally, there is a basin of water here. Why don't you wash all the things on your face? " After saying that, the old man shook his head and said. "I wonder what's wrong with the youngsters nowadays? Is my original appearance not good? I have to make it look like I'm drawing talismans on my face."
When she heard the old man's words, Jian Xi's mind had yet to recover from the incident just now. When she understood the old man's meaning, she looked at the wet towel in her hands. Jian Xi immediately exploded! She covered her face with the towel and turned to look at Qu Yichen.
Qu Yichen was confused by her look and did not understand why she suddenly went crazy.
"Mommy, are you alright?" baby boy looked at Jian Xi and felt that something was not right. "Grandpa, is Mommy really alright? Could there be something wrong with her brain?"
"What nonsense are you talking about? How could there be a problem?" The old man glared and said unhappily.
Jian Xi used a towel to cover her face and looked at the old man as she asked. "Where is the bathroom?"
"Oh, go straight this way. Just turn the corner!" The old man pointed in a direction and said.
Jian Xi used a towel to cover her face tightly. She took the bag and rushed in the direction the old man said. The moment Jian Xi ran out, the old man looked at baby boy and asked. "Is there something wrong with your mother's brain?"
Hearing this, baby boy was a little unhappy. "No, Mommy is just playing a disguise game!"
"What?" The old man didn't understand.
"Mommy is just playing a disguise game. Let's see if I can recognize Mommy!"2
The old man still did not understand the game of the mother and son, so he directly skipped the game!
Jian Xi, who rushed into the bathroom, took the towel off her face in a panic. She originally thought that her original appearance would be revealed, but when the towel was taken off, Jian Xi was almost shocked by herself in the mirror.
She saw that the thick makeup on her face was wiped off by the wet towel. It became muddy and the towel did not wipe off all the makeup on her face. Instead, it was like a real ghost drawing talisman. If she woke up at night to look in the mirror... Even so, Jian Xi also heaved a sigh of relief. Fortunately, it had become like this. If she woke up a step later, Qu Yichen would wipe away all the covers on her face, then wouldn't he recognize her?
But now, she could not continue to wear this kind of makeup. Jian Xi used a wet towel to wipe off all the makeup on her face. She revealed her original face. After that, she used her own makeup in her bag to put on makeup again. Simple and crude, it was done in a few minutes!
Jian Xi looked at the towel that had been dirtied by her and took the water from the washroom. After washing it, she did not think that the colors would stain the towel. She actually could not wash it off. No matter how she washed it, there would always be some traces left behind. Jian Xi had no choice but to bring this towel back to the room just now.
"Sorry, I really can't clean the things on the towel. I'll buy this towel!" Jian Xi said to the old man.
"No need! It's just a towel. I have a lot of it. If you can't clean it, then just use it as a cloth!" The old man said nonchalantly.
