Chapter 523: Chapter 523: Cosmetics (5)_1

Although Allen didn’t mention it to Situ Xin, she is not the kind of person who favors one over another. Since Daniel got one, she would definitely prepare a set for Allen as well.

After preparing the skincare products, Situ Xin was ready to leave the space with them. But before leaving, she packed a large number of cosmetic samples. She thought that the models might have other shows to walk before the fashion show, or they would need to wear makeup on a regular basis.

Situ Xin was worried that the makeup they usually used would damage their skin and diminish the effect of the skincare products she provided. Therefore, she brought her homemade cosmetics. She had great confidence in her makeup products. Even if they didn’t have skincare benefits, they definitely wouldn’t harm the skin like other brands’ products.

Of course, Situ Xin hadn’t forgotten about Daniel and Allen—the products for them were not samples, but the real deal.

Having prepared everything, Situ Xin was ready to leave the space. From the moment she entered, she had been busy with one thing or another and had no time to talk to Baibai. Baibai had been exceptionally well-behaved today and didn’t cause any trouble. However, when Situ Xin was about to leave the space with the items in hand, Baibai looked at her with a face full of grievance.

Seeing Baibai’s pitiful look made Situ Xin feel guilty. She walked over to Baibai, crouched down, and gently stroked its fur. "Baibai, I’m sorry, I know I’ve been neglecting you lately. But don’t worry, once we get back, I’ll make it up to you."

"Master, you said it yourself," Baibai replied, its grievance dissolving upon hearing Situ Xin’s promise of compensation.

"Yes, I did, and I will definitely make it up to you. Baibai, I need to go now. I’m worried Brother Muli might come looking for me in my room after he returns from going out with my mom and the others," Situ Xin patted Baibai on the head and said.

"Hmph, you’re too embarrassed to call him Brother Muli in front of Xiao Muli, yet you still do it in front of me," Baibai muttered in a mosquito-like voice.

Situ Xin, preoccupied with the situation outside, didn’t hear Baibai’s murmuring. Otherwise, if she had heard it, Baibai would have gotten more than just compensation—it would have been lucky not to get a scolding from Situ Xin.

Situ Xin left the space with a heap of cosmetics. Luckily, Xiao Muli and the others hadn’t returned yet. She took the opportunity to organize the makeup a bit to make it easier to take downstairs later.

Just when Situ Xin had almost finished organizing, she heard a knock on the door.

Without having to ask or guess, Situ Xin knew the person knocking was Xiao Muli.

Situ Xin opened the door, and sure enough, there was Xiao Muli standing outside holding a box with a cake in it. "Here, this is a cake Grandma and the others got you in case you were hungry."

"Thanks." Situ Xin’s thanks were ambiguous—it was unclear whether it was because Xiao Muli had gone shopping with her grandmother and the others or because he had thoughtfully bought her something tasty.

However, Xiao Muli found Situ Xin’s thanks unpleasant. "Xiao Xin, with our relationship, there’s no need for thanks. I don’t want to hear the words ’thank you’ from you anymore—it makes our relationship seem distant," he said.

Situ Xin didn’t expect Xiao Muli to be so sensitive. "Alright, I got it, I won’t say those words to you again," she replied.

Situ Xin stepped aside to let Xiao Muli in.

"Here, these skincare and makeup products are for the models. I won’t be polite with you; help me carry these boxes down," Situ Xin said with one hand on her hip and the other pointing at the boxes of cosmetics on the floor.

"When it’s just the two of us, call me Muli," Xiao Muli pointed out that since they became a couple, Situ Xin never called him by his name or ’Brother Muli’ when they were alone. He took the opportunity to make it clear to her.

"There are rules for that too?" Situ Xin frowned, finding it a bit hard to call him by that name.

"Of course; I don’t want you to just say ’hey’ or simply ’you’ when calling me. I’m not asking for any special nickname, just call me Muli like everyone else," Xiao Muli replied smoothly, without the slightest hesitation—it was clear he didn’t want Situ Xin to call him by a name that was different from everyone else’s, but he had his own name in mind. If she were to call him by a single character, it would either be ’Li’ or something like ’Mu,’ which didn’t sound right. Muli just sounded better to the ear.

Seeing Situ Xin’s reluctant face, Xiao Muli continued to persuade her. "Xiao Xin, look, when I talk to you, I call you by your name, just like I do with anyone else," he said, his face suddenly showing a hurt expression.

Situ Xin’s lips twitched at the sight—it was the first time she had seen such an expression on Xiao Muli’s face. But the power of his hurt expression was no small thing. Seeing Xiao Muli’s face made Situ Xin feel like she would be a terrible person if she didn’t agree to his request. "Alright, Muli," she finally said after taking a deep breath.

"Let’s go, I’ll carry these downstairs," a content Xiao Muli said cheerily as he picked up the boxes from the ground and assumed the role of a temporary laborer.

After getting out of the car, Xiao Muli took a large box of makeup products from the trunk, while Situ Xin got out and waited beside the car for Xiao Muli to take out the box from the trunk.

"Let’s go," Xiao Muli said, holding the box with one hand and walking over to Situ Xin. For him, the weight was hardly worth mentioning.

"Okay," Situ Xin replied, joining him by his side.

When Situ Xin and Xiao Muli entered the backstage area of the venue, Daniel, upon seeing them, immediately jumped up from his chair and ran towards them.
