"What's that look on your face?"
Yuan Lele found Yan Qing's skeptical look quite amusing. Without waiting for Yan Qing to respond, Yuan Lele said directly, "If you keep that look, even if you ask me for it later after seeing the effect, I won't give it to you."
Yan Qing: "..."
It seemed really amazing. To avoid being proven wrong, Yan Qing immediately put on an obsequious look, which made Yuan Lele burst into laughter. When they arrived at Yan Yuqi's apartment, Yuan Lele led Yan Qing in and saw her assistant Xia Xia applying something black on her face.
"Boss Yuan, Sister Qing."
Yan Yuqi greeted them and then turned back to let her assistant continue applying the stuff on her face. Yuan Lele glanced at them, then took out two lemons from the suitcase and went straight to the kitchen. Yan Qing followed. Yan Yuqi and her assistant Xia Xia were a bit confused. When Yuan Lele came out with a 1500 - ml large kettle, they understood when they saw the lemon water inside.
Did Boss Yuan want to use the whitening effect of lemons to solve the dullness and spots on Yan Yuqi's face?
"Boss Yuan, I've tried this. It doesn't work," Yan Yuqi said quickly. Yuan Lele waved her hand, placed the lemon water beside Yan Yuqi, and then went straight to her bathroom. When she came out again, the three women all stared wide - eyed at Yuan Lele's clear complexion.
"Boss Yuan, you...," Yan Qing was truly in disbelief. She knew how bad Yuan Lele's complexion was before she left and how dull and yellow her un - made - up face was. How could her natural face become so flawless after just two days away?
"Surprised?"
Yuan Lele sat down on the sofa and then motioned for Yan Yuqi and the others to come over. When the three of them got a close look at Yuan Lele's skin, they let out exclamations of amazement.
"Boss Yuan, your skin is just amazing!"
Yan Yuqi sincerely admired Yuan Lele's almost flawless face. She even felt a bit jealous. Then she thought of her suddenly problematic face and felt even more distressed.
"Boss Yuan, is it the lemons you brought? Is that the method you mentioned?!"
After a moment of daze, Yan Qing connected the dots and instantly understood. Then she pointed at the brewed lemon water with a trembling finger. Yuan Lele nodded with a smile. Then she told Yan Yuqi her personal experience in detail.
"My younger sister said that the lemons there have much higher nutritional value than those on the market, so the effect will be very obvious. Especially if you add more when making lemon water, it will be even more effective."
Hearing what Yuan Lele said and looking at her face, Yan Yuqi didn't say a word. She rushed straight to the large kettle and gulped down one - third of it in a few big mouthfuls.
"Don't try any other things on your face. The audition is tomorrow afternoon. The effect of this lemon water will show after the body has had a good rest, that is, after you've had a deep sleep. When you wake up, you'll see the specific effect. From now on, your goal is to finish this large cup of lemon water. Have a good rest tonight, and we'll see the specific situation tomorrow morning."
After saying that, Yuan Lele took out two more lemons from the suitcase and handed them to Yan Yuqi.
"After 8 p.m., use these lemons to make another 500 - ml more concentrated lemon water. Don't drink anything else after that to prevent swelling tomorrow."
Yan Yuqi nodded frantically. At this moment, hope truly welled up in her heart, especially after seeing Yuan Lele's clear and fair natural face. After that, Yuan Lele didn't stay any longer. After giving a few instructions, she left with Yan Qing. After they left, Yan Yuqi immediately went to the bathroom to wash off the black folk remedy on her face.
"Sister Yuqi, will this really work?"
Xia Xia still had some doubts in her heart. After Yan Yuqi washed her face, she heard this question and gave Xia Xia a disdainful look. Then she said somewhat dissatisfiedly, "Can't you see if it works or not? Boss Yuan's current skin condition could pass for a 20 - year - old's! Besides, have you ever seen such big lemons?"
"I think this stuff must be really amazing."
"By the way, even if you have doubts in your heart, don't say them out loud. Do you understand?"
Yan Yuqi finally admonished Xia Xia. Some things should be kept in mind. If a nosy person heard them, they would surely think that she, Yan Yuqi, was ungrateful. The company's boss had gone to the trouble of finding this stuff, and she was still doubting it! Moreover, this was her newly - replaced assistant. The previous one had been fired by the company because of the face incident. Yes, it was that assistant's carelessness that had made Yan Yuqi drink something unknown, which had ruined her face. So it was necessary to give a little warning to prevent any unwanted problems.
After hearing Yan Yuqi's words, Xia Xia's face turned a bit pale, but she still obediently nodded. Seeing that she was quite sensible, Yan Yuqi didn't say anything else. Instead, she picked up the lemon water cup and took another big gulp.
After Yuan Lele and Yan Qing came out of Yan Yuqi's apartment, Yuan Lele didn't go straight back to the company. She asked Yan Qing to take her to her own apartment. But when they were at the entrance of the apartment complex and Yuan Lele went to get her suitcase, Yan Qing gave her a silly smile.
"Boss Yuan...," Yan Qing felt a bit embarrassed. After all, she had indeed questioned it just now. But after seeing Boss Yuan's natural face, she was itching with desire. She wanted those awesome lemons!
Yuan Lele gave Yan Qing a teasing look. Under Yan Qing's embarrassed gaze, she finally took out two and gave them to her.
"There aren't many of these. If your skin doesn't have many problems, one or two slices a day is enough."
Yuan Lele gave a reminder according to what Yuan Tiantian had said, then turned around and entered the apartment. After getting the two big lemons, Yan Qing was extremely happy. She carefully put them away, then walked out of the complex and took a taxi back to the company. The car was Yuan Lele's, which she had driven back from the airport, so Yan Qing had to take a taxi.
When she got to the company, Chen Yanyan saw Yan Qing coming back with a beaming face and was immediately filled with curiosity.
"Assistant Yan, what's making you so happy?"
At the door of Yan Qing's office, Chen Yanyan's voice came from behind. At this time, she remembered what Yuan Lele had told her and replied with a smile, "Hey, Secretary Chen. What could it be? I just bought something I've always wanted. That's why I'm happy!"
After saying that, Yan Qing waved the lemons in her hand and then ignored Chen Yanyan. She opened the door and entered the office. As soon as she went in, she put the two lemons into the small refrigerator in the office. Yan Qing guarded them like they were two precious treasures. Chen Yanyan observed this scene through the glass and curled her lip disdainfully.
"Pfft, what a weirdo. Treating two lousy lemons like they're treasures!"
