"You look really sharp, Nan."
Lin Shen complimented her sincerely. Qin Yuenan glanced away, seemingly a bit flustered.
"Where are your glasses?"
"When I heard I was going hiking with you yesterday, Nan, I got so excited I accidentally crushed my glasses."
"You’re such a smooth talker."
She wasn’t put off by Lin Shen’s playful attitude at all; on the contrary, she found it rather refreshing.
She secretly sized up the Lin Shen in front of her, and her heart began to beat a little faster.
They say glasses can hide a person’s good looks. Qin Yuenan never used to believe it.
But now, it seemed there was some truth to it.
Without his glasses, Lin Shen looked much more refined and handsome than his usual dorky self.
Especially after his successful weight loss, his facial contours and physique were perfectly proportioned, giving him the air of a sunny and confident handsome man.
This feeling was especially prominent now that he was wearing hiking gear.
It made Qin Yuenan stare blankly for a moment, until Lin Shen waved a hand in front of her face.
"Nan?"
"Can you see clearly without your glasses?"
Qin Yuenan quickly changed the subject, making Lin Shen shrug helplessly.
"Of course not. That’s why if we pass a pharmacy, I’m going to buy a pair of contacts."
"Okay, get in the car."
Qin Yuenan gestured for Lin Shen to toss his backpack in the back, and he took the wheel.
’After all, a CEO who earns millions came to pick you up personally. The least you could do is take on a chore, right?’
After driving out of the Min’an District, there was a National Pharmacy right across the street.
Lin Shen went in and bought a box of -4.00 prescription contacts. When he came out, he sat in the driver’s seat and tilted his head back to put them in.
Seeing how unpracticed he was, Qin Yuenan was a little surprised.
"You’ve never worn contacts before?"
"Nope."
"Let me help you, then."
Qin Yuenan had Lin Shen push the driver’s seat back a bit, then she got up, took the contact lens case from his hand, and balanced the lens on the tip of her fair index finger.
While holding his shoulder, she turned to the side and leaned forward, their bodies pressed closely together.
Being this close made Lin Shen extremely nervous.
After all, the warm, yielding softness pressing against his right arm was undeniable.
’She’s this stacked?!’
Lin Shen’s mind started to wander, but then a cool voice suddenly sounded by his ear.
"Look to the left."
’?’
Lin Shen did as he was told. The moment his eyes glanced left, Qin Yuenan seized the opportunity and jabbed it right in!
"SSSK—!"
Lin Shen sucked in a sharp breath. Startled, he shot upright and began blinking furiously.
Though his eye stung so much it teared up, the contact lens eventually settled into place as his eyelid and eyeball adjusted.
But the experience also left Lin Shen deeply traumatized.
’So rough!’
"Nan, have you ever worn contacts?"
"No."
"Then why did you volunteer so enthusiastically!"
Lin Shen couldn’t help but complain bitterly.
’You looked so confident, I thought you were some kind of expert!’
’And now you’re telling me you’ve never done it?’
"I learned a little trick online for putting in contacts. It said that if you look to the side, you’ll overcome the unconscious urge to blink."
Qin Yuenan picked up the other contact lens with her fingertip. She blinked her cool eyes playfully, a look of eagerness on her face.
Seeing this, Lin Shen hurriedly stopped her.
"I’d better do it myself!"
