Chapter 63: His Needs (2)

So he was in the bathroom inside the room.

His room was very large; after entering the room, one had to pass through the walk-in closet to reach the bathroom, where Han Yangting was shaving in front of the mirror in a tank top, a thick layer of white foam sprayed around his mouth.

She didn't know why he had called her in, either.

"Brother Han, did you call me?" she asked.

Han Yangting actually handed the razor to her: "Shave my beard for me."

"What?" Bai Shuruo thought she had misheard.

"Shave my beard for me," he repeated once more.

Bai Shuruo did not understand; why would Han Yangting, who could cook and take care of people, need her help with such a trivial matter as shaving?

"I, I don't know how," Bai Shuruo said.

She wasn't even very adept at chopping vegetables; what if she accidentally cut him?

"Come here, I'll teach you." Han Yangting pulled her in front of him, let her hold the razor, and then held her hand, teaching her to shave hand-in-hand.

"It's just like this..."

She just didn't get it; didn't this still amount to him shaving himself?

However, since she had to shave his beard for him, the two of them had to stand very close.

His hand was moving, but his eyes were watching her; she felt extremely awkward and had no choice but to stare intently at the beard, watching wherever the razor moved.

That feeling of tension from yesterday, along with the heavy sensation in her lower abdomen, had returned.

Finally, it was finished; only then did he release her hand and wash his face clean.

Afterward, he said to her again: "Ruoruo, pick out an outfit for me."

"Pick an outfit? But... I don't know anything about fashion," she said.

He patted moisturizing toner onto his face and added: "It doesn't matter, just pick any outfit; I look good in anything anyway."

He was quite narcissistic.

She just picked out an outfit for him at random.

He wasn't in a hurry to change, but instead kept looking at her face.

Her heart tightened again; she didn't know his intention in staring at her.

"Why is your face so dry?" Han Yangting said, then turned her body around and unscrewed the cap of his own moisturizing toner.

Was he going to hydrate her skin?

"Brother Han, I can do it myself," Bai Shuruo said.

"Don't move; you just shaved my beard for me, so now I'm hydrating your skin in return," he said.

Bai Shuruo: "..."

Wasn't shaving his beard something he had requested himself?

Han Yangting soaked a cotton pad with the toner and slowly patted it onto her face.

This toner was cool and refreshing, very gentle, and quite comfortable.

Then he applied moisturizing lotion for her and said: "Don't tell me you don't even have toner and moisturizing lotion? Even a man like me has them."

Skincare from a young age was a tradition in their circle; he actually had very little, only a few sets that were unisex, while Ling Feng's bathroom had hundreds of sets of skincare products.

"I was planning to buy some after getting my paycheck, but then I went on a business trip and bought a bottle in Xijiang... Dabao, it works quite well too."

"You're even rougher than I am; your face already has a high-altitude flush," he said, frowning.

"Then what should I do?" Girls still cared about their skin.

"Later, I'll have Ali send some skincare products up to you, or I'll get you a membership at a beauty salon so you can go get skin treatments yourself."

"Forget the beauty salon; it's a waste of money and time. I'll just apply some moisturizer when I have time," Bai Shuruo said.

"As you wish."

While he was changing clothes, Bai Shuruo hurried to the living room and then took a deep breath.

She finally felt less nervous.

Her phone had a message from Bai Shunan: 【Ruoruo, how is your body today? Are you feeling better? I'm working overtime now and don't have time; I won't be able to come see you until the weekend.】

Bai Shuruo hurriedly replied: 【Sister, there's nothing wrong with my body anymore; I can run and jump now.】

Bai Shunan: 【That's good. I'm quite relieved that you have Brother Han there to take care of you; Brother Han is a good man.】

Bai Shuruo thought for a moment and asked again: 【Sister, if a man asks you to shave his beard, what does that imply?】

Her sister had always said she was an expert in this area; she had seen more men than Bai Shuruo had eaten grains of rice.

Bai Shunan: 【First, it proves that the relationship between you is intimate; second, he trusts you. Did Brother Han let you shave his beard?】

Bai Shuruo: 【Mm.】

Bai Shunan: 【Haha, you two have even started flirting by shaving beards; it seems you aren't far from that step. Come to think of it, the Han Yangting of the past could really hold back; if it weren't for the misunderstanding last time, I wouldn't have known you two hadn't consummated the marriage yet.】

Bai Shuruo: 【Sister, I'm not talking to you anymore; he's coming out.】

Bai Shunan, who was working at the Gu Group headquarters, smiled and closed the chat box with Bai Shuruo.

But after smiling for a while, she felt empty again.

She leaned powerlessly against her office chair and closed her eyes.

The relationship between Han Yangting and Bai Shuruo was developing very smoothly, so smoothly that she envied them from the bottom of her heart.

As for her...

At this moment, the desk phone rang again, and Gu Yunting called her: "Bai Shunan, come in for a moment."

"Okay."

Bai Shunan's office was in the outer room, while the inner room was Gu Yunting's office.

She pushed open the door and walked in front of Gu Yunting, "President Gu, do you have any instructions?"

During this period, Gu Yunting had not been tormenting her as intensely as he had at the beginning, and the workload he gave her was also much less.

He pointed at the computer screen and asked, "What is going on with this report submitted by the Sales Department?"

Bai Shunan took a look and said, "It is like this; it is mainly because Europe is currently facing energy issues, which has led to a decline in our sales volume. I have already communicated with the Technical Department, and we will make changes on the technical side..."

Gu Yunting said, "Such a serious problem, why did no one report it to me before?"

"..." Bai Shunan said directly, "I did report it, but you, President Gu, have not had the time lately. On Monday, you were to have dinner with Miss Wanqing; on Tuesday, you were to go on a television interview with Miss Wanqing; on Wednesday and Thursday, Miss Wanqing's variety show debut began, and you were to be a guest..."

Ever since Gu Yunting and Mo Wanqing announced their relationship, they had gained immense popularity in just over 10 days.

They were just one step away from going to a livestream room to sell goods.

After hearing Bai Shunan's report, Gu Yunting was silent for a while.

"Then let's call a meeting. Get the director and managers of the Export Department over here, as well as those from the Technical Department and Production Department. We'll hold it this afternoon," Gu Yunting said.

Bai Shunan said, "The director of the Export Department and the director of the Technical Department went on a business trip to Europe the day before yesterday, and the Production Department is currently rushing to fulfill orders for North America, having worked through the night last night."

Gu Yunting was stunned again.

He actually knew nothing about these matters; he had spent this entire time just following behind Mo Wanqing.

Bai Shunan added, "I spoke with the director of the Export Department on the phone this morning. He said that through on-site investigation, they have already found some leads, and he believes this matter can be resolved very soon. President Gu does not need to worry for now."

Gu Yunting was overwhelmed with shame; if he were an emperor in ancient times, with his personality of only loving beauties and not his empire, he would likely have already been usurped by treacherous officials.

He looked at Bai Shunan and said slowly, "You have worked hard these past few days."

"It is my duty. If President Gu has no other instructions, I will go back to work."

"Shunan..." he suddenly called out to stop her.
