You're Beautiful When You Smile

Chapter 73 Part 3

Tong Yao jumped out of bed, pulled her suitcase out from the closet, opened it, and dug out a blue striped white dress s.h.i.+rt and a darker colored pleated skirt-- --They were birthday gifts from Jinyang last year-- --The two were a matching pair, with a small cartoon bear head on each of them. That was the only childish thing Jinyang could stand to have on the clothes she gave to Tong Yao.

Tong Yao quickly put on the s.h.i.+rt and skirt, rushed in front of the mirror to stuff the s.h.i.+rt into the skirt, and spun in a circle after smoothing out the s.h.i.+rt. She had a narrow waist line, straight legs, and a flat tummy since she hadn't had any breakfast yet…... 

Satisfied with what she saw in the mirror, she checked the time and hurriedly grabbed the black chain bag she seldom used and went for the door. Right before she touched the door handle, she suddenly stopped and went back to the mirror.

In front of the mirror, she checked to make sure that her mascara didn't have any clumps, the color on her cheek was perfect, and the lipstick color was just right on her lips. She grabbed the hair conditioning oil on her dresser and applied some to the ends of her fuzzy hair-- --

She could smell the fresh fragrance of the oil.

Tong Yao picked up the bag, then pulled out a brand new yellow shoe box from under her bed-- --She opened the box, revealing a pair of black platform sandals with black strings that wrapped around the ankles, perfectly outlining the contour of the wearer's feet……

This was also a gift from Jinyang when Tong Yao's sandal broke in an earlier incident. Jinyang couldn't stand Tong Yao's incessant complaints and sent another pair to her.

Tong Yao rushed to put on one of the sandals. She was very satisfied with the additional 5 mm longer the platforms added to her legs. As a plus, she found the platform shoes to be comfortable and rather friendly to someone like her who couldn't handle high heels-- --She took off the sandal and carried the pair in her hand, then opened the door and ran downstairs……

Her heart was pounding.

She was looking forward to how she would look in front of that man-- --

There were a few people on the first floor by now.

Xiao Rui saw Tong Yao coming down and hastily stuffed Dabing, who was halfway out of the cage already, back into the cage while hiding the can food behind him-- --He was about to say something when he noticed the skirt and Tong Yao's fair skinned straight legs.

Xiao Rui: “? ? ? What's this? ? When did we have a girl in our base? ? ?”

Tong Yao didn't have the time to answer and simply raised her hand like she was going to throw the shoes at Xiao Rui. At that moment, Xiao Rui noticed the logo on her shoes-- --

Lu Sicheng happened to open his door at the same time.

He was wearing a black t-s.h.i.+rt and dark jeans that showed off his broad shoulders and narrow waist line. The well tailored jeans made his long legs stand out-- --His hair looked a little damp, having just come out of the shower. The stubble on his face was now all gone. He leaned against the railing and looked down at Tong Yao: “Did you wait for long?”

Tong Yao: “I just came down.”

Tong Yao put her sandals down and bent over to put them on.

Lu Sicheng walked down stairs and glanced at the sandals in Tong Yao's hand. He turned around and pulled a pair of black casual shoes that had a pair of yellow triangle monster eyes on them, instead of sneakers or flip-flops. He lowered his head and began putting on his shoes.

Xiao Rui: “? ? ? ? ? ?”

What's going on? Why would they choose the same brand of shoes to put on?

Xiao Ru's head was filled with question marks.

Until the two of them walked out the front door of the base after they had their shoes on, Xiao Rui was still standing at the same location, his posture frozen: “What's going on here?”

Behind him, a large b.u.t.t wearing Ultraman underwear was protruding past the open refrigerator door. Little Fatty stopped searching for food and looked up at Xiao Rui: “What are you talking about?”

Xiao Rui: “Where are our team's two Cs going?”

Little Fatty: “They said they're going to the market to buy goldfish.”

Xiao Rui: “What?”

Little Fatty: “Going to the market to buy goldfish.”

Xiao Rui: “Is it the market next to the Civil Affairs Bureau or the Civil Affairs Bureau right next to the market?”

Little Fatty: “......”

Xiao Rui: “It's summer, that's when all the little animals become restless……………………. It's a date, silly, it's a date! These two are so blatant, though our club hasn't disallowed it…...But…...d.a.m.n, why do I feel so irritated? Nowadays, even a r.e.t.a.r.d and a grade school kid can go on a date, but me, a normal person like me, is still single! ! !”
