Rebirth of a Village Girl

Chapter 225: 092: Changing views on Ni Yan, Elder Mrs. Mo’s birthday banquet_4

Take, for instance, the famous skincare brand La Mer, which is a subsidiary of Estee Lauder.

Estee Lauder’s prices are affordable for the average person, but La Mer could be a little out of their price range.

Lin Pingping expressed her surprise, “Does this skin whitening moisturizer really whiten skin?”

There isn’t a woman who doesn’t fancy fair and rosy skin.

No matter whether they’re white or yellow-skinned, all women hope their skin can become fairer, better.

Ni Yang responded with a smile, “You can see the results by trying the sample at home.”

Lin Pingping continued, “Alright, I’ll get one set of this skincare product and eight acne creams for my colleagues.”

“Okay.” Ni Yang packed a bag full of skincare products for Lin Pingping and added a pile of samples.

“Yangyang, how much do all these cost?” Lin Pingping asked.

Ni Yang answered with a smile, “Cleanser is 15 yuan, aloe gel and acne cream are 20 yuan each, the skin whitening moisturizer is a little more expensive at 108 yuan. The total comes to 303 yuan, you can pay 300 yuan.”

Her mental arithmetic was pretty good. It would usually take a minute or two for a regular person to calculate these prices, but Ni Yang gave the answer immediately, without thinking.

Lin Pingping was secretly surprised. She pulled out 400 yuan from her pocket and gave them to Ni Yang.

Ni Yang gave Lin Pingping change, but Lin Pingping refused, insisting she had already taken too much advantage of Ni Yang.

She had previously spent thousands of yuan trying to treat her face, let alone 400 yuan.

“Yangyang, I’ll leave first, bye.” Lin Pingping ran out the door and waved at Ni Yang.

Left with no choice, Ni Yang had to abandon the idea of giving change and waved back at Lin Pingping.

Once back, Lin Pingping washed her face eagerly with the cleanser and applied the skin whitening moisturizer.

As though affected by some psychological factor, just after applying the moisturizer, Lin Pingping felt her skin becoming much brighter.

But the actual result would only reveal itself over time.

Lin Pingping followed Ni Yang’s instructions and patted her face in front of the mirror.

“Ring ring!”

A series of urgent alarm tones woke up the person still in a deep sleep.

The person groggily turned off the alarm, and was jolted upright when they saw the time on the clock!

It was already half past twelve!

They had actually slept until half past twelve!

It was utterly terrifying.

They quickly got up, dressed, brushed their teeth, washed their face, picked up their briefcase, and rushed out the door.

A passing subordinate greeted him, “Zhou, you look pretty good today!”

Only when Xiaozhou arrived at the Detective Agency did he realize that he’d actually fallen asleep last night and had overslept this morning!

For someone who had been suffering from insomnia for half a month, it felt better than winning a five million yuan lottery.

Xiaozhou, feeling refreshed, sat on the leather sofa and made himself a cup of tea.

He decided to drink more sour jujube tea that night.

He hadn’t expected the sour jujube tea to have any effect, but after just one day, his sleep improved significantly.

It turned out that Ni Yang did have some skills.

Problems that the doctors in big hospitals failed to solve were resolved by Ni Yang with just a prescription of sour jujube tea.

He would remember this favor in his heart.

Ni Yang didn’t sleep well last night.

She spent the entire night thinking about Li Xianxian, and then she had a dream. She dreamt of her past life, seeing a woman with a blurry face pushing her off the balcony of the 36th floor.

She died on the spot!

Ni Yang couldn’t forget the gruesome scene.

Was it a dream, or was it reality?

Moreover, she had a feeling that the woman who pushed her off the building was Li Xianxian!

However, Ni Yang still couldn’t figure out why Li Xianxian would harm her.

“Boss, you’ve made a mistake, 1 only wanted two bowls of noodles, you gave me an extra one.”

The customer’s reminder brought Ni Yang back from her thoughts. She smiled and returned the excess bowl of noodles, “I’m sorry, thank you for reminding me.”

“I want a bowl of noodles over here.”

“Okay.” Ni Yang quickly served the spare bowl of noodles to the customer,

“Here you go, that will be three cents.”

The man took out a one yuan note and handed it to Ni Yang.

Ni Yang reached out to take it, “Thank you, here is your change.”

From beginning to end, Ni Yang didn’t give him an extra glance.

She did her work, served the noodles, collected the money; she neither took the initiative to talk to him, nor tried to get close to him; just like the other customers in the restaurant..
