Chapter 437: Chapter 408 The woman pleases herself, sweet date_1

He Tiantian this time woke up groggily and saw it was indeed Grandma Lan speaking to her, so she quickly got up and, without even changing clothes, was about to rush out.

"Hey hey, you haven’t changed your clothes yet, and your hair is all messy. Aren’t you afraid of letting your sweetheart see you looking so sloppy?" Xianglan hurriedly stopped her. She couldn’t let the young mistress go out looking like that, it would be too embarrassing.

He Tiantian scratched her head and laughed, "I’m a bit out of it, I’ll change my clothes right away."

He Tiantian was wearing a white blouse inside and then put on a khaki trench coat over it.

As for her long hair, He Tiantian still tied it up high as usual.

The wind in Yanjing was strong; if she didn’t tie it up, once she went outside and the wind blew, she would look like a crazy person.

She quickly washed her face, applied a bit of skin cream, and bit her tender lips with her teeth, making them a bit redder.

He Tiantian walked out bare-faced like that, but was pulled back by Xianglan, who scolded, "Young mistress, how can you go out like this? You’re at the age where it’s fine not to wear makeup, but how can you not wear any accessories at all? You’re wasting such a beautiful face and so many lovely pieces of jewelry!"

After saying that, Xianglan gripped He Tiantian and wouldn’t let her go out like that.

"Isn’t this fine?" He Tiantian felt that she was looking pretty good. Her clothing was already different from the typical attire in Huaxia Country, and adding those pieces of jewelry and accessories would be a bit too eye-catching.

At the same time, she was afraid she’d be too conspicuous and the change would be too great; she was worried about what Huo Yingjie would say.

"It’s necessary, definitely necessary," Xianglan said, "women doll up for those who cherish them, and you’re going to see your fiancé, not just any other friend. You must dress up well, and preferably make him gawk."

After saying that, she took out He Tiantian’s jewelry box, found a shiny crystal hairband, and tied it at the root of He Tiantian’s ponytail. Then she took out two crystal hair clips to pin up the stray hairs on her head, and put lively star-shaped crystal earrings on her ears.

"Is this alright?" He Tiantian looked at herself in the mirror; indeed, she looked a bit more refined than before.

Xianglan checked and noticed that the young miss’s trench coat seemed a bit loose, as it wasn’t belted.

So she reached for the belt and tied it around He Tiantian’s waist, revealing a slender waistline and shaping a nice bust and lower body silhouette.

Finally, she took out a pair of white mid-heel leather shoes from the suitcase and said, "Wear these too."

"We’re not going out, no need to change shoes, right?" He Tiantian felt embarrassed, isn’t this a bit too obvious?

"It’s a date!" Xianglan didn’t understand, "Why no date after meeting? You······ are you really lovers?"

"Yes!" He Tiantian nodded repeatedly, "I’ll wear them, okay! This is Huaxia, not the United States, so I have to be cautious about everything from manners to dress!"

He Tiantian put on her shoes and came out, already more than ten minutes later.

Huo Yingjun had already witnessed He Tiantian’s beauty in the United States and wasn’t surprised.

When Huo Yingjie turned his head and saw He Tiantian, he was instantly stunned; his Sweet Treasure was too beautiful. If only she could dress like this every day.

However, he soon thought that if his Sweet Treasure was dressed like this and he couldn’t see her, with other men looking at her instead, it left a sour taste in his heart.

Huo Yingjie was relieved that he had worn a black Zhongshan suit, standing in front of He Tiantian didn’t look out of place.

"Tiantian, you’re really beautiful," Huo Yingjie praised.

He Tiantian’s face turned red with so many people staring at her, she said shyly, "Thank you, you······ why are you in Yanjing?"

"Some matters," Huo Yingjie vaguely said, as there were rules he couldn’t talk about.

"Oh, then you······" He Tiantian had so much to say, but with her grandmother and others present, she felt too shy to speak.

Actually, what she most wanted to do was to throw herself into Huo Yingjie’s arms and fervently kiss the lover she had been missing for so long.

Bai Qiongyu had come over when she was young, and for lovers reuniting, the greatest hope was to be alone together.

"Alright, you two can go out for a walk," Bai Qiongyu was quite open-minded about love.

Huo Yingjie’s eyes lit up as he said, "Thank you, grandmother!"

Feeling the gazes of everyone on her, He Tiantian’s face flushed red, and in a soft voice, she said, "Grandmother, goodbye Grandma Lan."

Under everyone’s watchful eyes, Huo Yingjie took He Tiantian’s hand and led her out of the room.

"Where... where are we going?" He Tiantian whispered, her palm feeling hot.

Once out of everyone’s sight, Huo Yingjie cradled He Tiantian’s face in his hands and kissed her, murmuring softly, "I missed you to death."

"This is a corridor, be careful," He Tiantian whispered back sharply, "Aren’t you afraid of being reported for misconduct?"

"I kiss my fiancée and I have to explain to the whole world?" Huo Yingjie said, "Alright, the wind is strong outside, let’s sit at the café."

The hotel had such a leisure area, and there were many foreigners there.

No one recognized them in there, Huo Yingjie and He Tiantian found a relatively secluded spot.

"By the way, Brother Yingjie, why didn’t you say why you came to Yanjing?" He Tiantian asked. Their actions were a secret, and even with Huo Yingjun around, it was impossible for Huo Yingjie to have known in advance.

Thinking about the upcoming closed-off research work made Huo Yingjie feel a bit disheartened.

"What’s wrong?" asked He Tiantian, "Is it something you cannot talk about?"

"I can’t tell others, but is there anything I can’t tell you?" Huo Yingjie said, "I’m going to take part in a major project, I’ve received a summons from the Scientific and Technological Commission. In a couple of days, I don’t know to which place I’ll be sent to work."

"Ah?" He Tiantian was taken aback, feeling a bit disheartened at heart. Even if there were no holidays usually, there were still some days off during the New Year when they could meet.

But Huo Yingjie was about to participate in a major project, and it wasn’t certain that he could come back for the New Year anymore.

"I’m sorry, Tiantian," Huo Yingjie said, "Can you wait for me for a few years?"

Seeing Huo Yingjie look pitiful and cautious, He Tiantian placed her little hand on his and said, "As long as you do not betray me, I will never betray you."

Huo Yingjie nodded and said, "Rest assured, I will preserve my purity for you, ’A piece of pure heart in a jade pot, true to the Buddha and true to you.’

"Pfft!" He Tiantian couldn’t help but laugh. "What are you saying?"

Huo Yingjie, with all seriousness, declared firmly, "We have love, and our families approve. Now the only things hindering us are time and distance. Mutual trust is the key to overcoming these two difficulties."

"That’s right!" He Tiantian smiled and said, "Go with confidence, the person I love the most is you, are you reassured now?"

"I was assured before, but now that you’ve seen the wonders outside, I’m afraid the drabness here won’t keep you," Huo Yingjie’s greatest worry was this. In the research institute, he regretted it more than once!

If his wife ran off with someone else, he would be in misery with no place even to cry.

"The scenery outside may be beautiful, but you are unique," He Tiantian smiled, feeling a bit proud and slightly heartbroken at this Huo Yingjie.

"You are also unique in my heart," Huo Yingjie said, "My eyes see only you!"
