Chapter 2079: Attracted Indeed

~7 min read 1,311 words

Now, Jiang Mobai raised his hand to touch...

He really did touch a hair extension!

Jiang Mobai felt that his whole being was not doing well.

Wang Zi, however, was still digging: "You actually have glitter on your face!"

"Alright, stop talking!"

Jiang Mobai could not listen anymore.

He took out his phone and called Li Moning.

The call was just answered, and Li Moning was quite happy: "How is it? Did a lot of people compliment you?"

"Compliment what! Momo, why has my mouth turned red?"

"Oh, that's the color-changing lipstick I used on you to improve your complexion."

"I'm a grown man, what complexion do I need to improve!"

"Please, you looked all sickly; if I don't improve yours, whose would I improve?"

The reason Li Moning gave left Jiang Mobai speechless.

He paused for a moment and then asked: "Then what's with the glitter on my face?"

"I specifically applied it for you! Isn't there media at the venue? When you take photos and the flash goes off, your face will definitely be bling-bling!"

"I'm a grown man, what do I need bling-bling for!"

"What's wrong with being a man? You also need to have a transparent, clean look!"

"Fine, let's assume everything you say makes sense, then what's with the hair extension? I'm not balding to the point of needing a hair extension, am I!"

"I know you have a lot of hair, but time was limited, and there wasn't enough time to use a curling iron to curl your hair, so I used the hair extension to fluff up the top of your head."

Li Moning felt that her operation was fine.

She even promised proudly: "You're just not used to it yourself, but others will definitely praise you for being handsome when they see you!"

"That won't happen; someone has already given a negative review."

"Who is that person? A man, right?"

"Yeah."

"It's one of your teammates, right?"

"……Yes."

Li Moning revealed an "as I expected" expression.

Then she said: "A big brute who doesn't know how to appreciate things! If you ask a woman, she'll definitely give a good review!"

"Are you sure?"

"Very sure, you have to trust your sister's aesthetic skills! Second Brother, you are the most handsome person at the whole event, have some confidence!"

After Li Moning finished speaking, she even clenched her fist to cheer Jiang Mobai on.

Thinking that Jiang Mobai couldn't see, she hurriedly hung up the phone and sent him a sticker.

It was a little person waving a small flag, with very erratic movements.

Jiang Mobai had two words for this: childish.

Seeing Jiang Mobai's speechless expression, Wang Zi thought he was dissatisfied with his styling, so he suggested: "How about we go wash our faces?"

Jiang Mobai put away his phone and replied calmly: "No need, let's just leave it; after all, it's my sister's kind intention."

"Are you really okay with it?"

"……Yeah."

Jiang Mobai responded very reluctantly.

In fact, he didn't like this look of his either.

But who told him that Su Kexuan liked it?

Jiang Mobai could only endure it.

However, he made a round of small talk but did not see Su Kexuan.

Jiang Mobai looked at Wang Zi in confusion.

The latter understood and explained: "I heard Miss Su is stuck in traffic on the way and will arrive a little later."

A little later is fine.

Jiang Mobai was only afraid of missing her.

Just as he was sighing to himself, he caught a glimpse of the team leaders walking over.

Ever since Jiang Mobai's accident, not one of these leaders had been able to rest well.

They were terrified that the Li Family's thunderous rage would burn them to ash.

Before, everyone only saw that Jiang Mobai had a good background and could bring invisible benefits to the team.

But this accident made them realize that the so-called benefits were a double-edged sword.

It could bring them glory.

But it could also easily destroy them.

Facing Jiang Mobai at this moment, they unconsciously became more cautious.

Jiang Mobai felt this caution.

This made him feel uncomfortable inside.

Fortunately, the teammates who trained with him were still as carefree as ever.

One of them even commented on his styling: "Mobai, you look very different today."

Others chimed in: "Have you become a flower boy?"

Oh, so there is someone who knows quality.

Jiang Mobai straightened his back and said, "Recovering from illness at home, feeling depressed, so I changed my look to change my mood."

"Hey, it has to be Brother Mobai. Others recuperating just get fatter and more decadent, but our Brother Mobai has become refined directly!"

Hearing this, the others started joking around Jiang Mobai.

Jiang Mobai, however, was absent-minded.

Until... he saw Su Kexuan!

This woman was forty minutes late.

Jiang Mobai complained secretly in his heart.

Then, leaning on his crutch, he prepared to greet Su Kexuan.

Unfortunately, he was a step too slow.

Someone walked up to Su Kexuan enthusiastically to exchange pleasantries with her.

Su Kexuan was very skilled at handling such occasions.

She could even use half her mind to say this and that to the other person, and the other half to let her mind wander.

Her gaze swept lightly over the surroundings.

But it paused for a moment the instant it swept over Jiang Mobai.

The next second, she looked back.

Hmm, she hadn't seen wrong; it was indeed Jiang Mobai.

It was just this outfit of his...

Su Kexuan raised her eyebrows slightly, then smiled to interrupt the person exchanging pleasantries with her, and walked straight toward Jiang Mobai.

Jiang Mobai was extremely nervous inside!

The fingers gripping his crutch tightened involuntarily.

At the same time, he mentally credited Li Moning for this.

This girl was finally reliable for once!

Su Kexuan...

Was really attracted by his handsomeness!!

Jiang Mobai was secretly hoping that Su Kexuan would compliment his handsome look today.

But he didn't expect...

After Su Kexuan stood steady, she first examined him, then opened her mouth to ask, "Where did you get this done?"

"The look? This is Momo's handiwork."

"Did you lose a bet to Momo, so you let her have free rein?"

"Ah? No, she said this style is popular now, and you... successful women like you also like it very much."

Jiang Mobai almost let it slip.

Fortunately, he changed his words in time.

Su Kexuan... shouldn't have heard any flaws.

Jiang Mobai glanced at Su Kexuan, only to see her smiling and saying, "Beauty is diverse, it's quite good."

Quite good?

Then why did Jiang Mobai only feel mockery in her smile?

Jiang Mobai felt something was wrong.

He still wanted to probe a bit.

But just at this moment, a reporter walked over.

The person held up a camera and suggested with a smile, "The two of you, let's take a photo together!"

Su Kexuan looked at the lens generously with a smile on her face.

Jiang Mobai also wanted to take the photo generously.

But thinking of the eyesore of a crutch in his hand...

He really wanted to hide the crutch behind his back.

But Jiang Mobai hadn't fully recovered yet; if he dropped the crutch, he would probably have to go to the Hospital again.

So this photo would inevitably have some regrets...

Jiang Mobai sighed softly.

But suddenly, he noticed Su Kexuan's body move.

Then half of her body stood in front of him, just right to block the crutch in his hand.

Jiang Mobai was stunned.

He stared blankly at Su Kexuan, not knowing if this small gesture of hers was intentional or unintentional...

"Come, the two of you, please look at the lens!"

Hearing the reporter's words, Jiang Mobai was half a beat slow, then raised his eyes and curled his lips.
