“That’s not true.” Luo Sang blushed and said, “I just like the suit that you’re wearing now.”
Nian Junting chuckled and responded, “My perfect body shape made it look good.”
“I’m going to take a shower,” Luo Sang said as she got up from the bed.
Since they had come to the seaside where she could wear dresses, Luo Sang would surely make herself look stunning. She picked an ethnic-styled, long, red cotton dress. It was difficult for most of the other girls to look nice in that dress. However, Luo Sang was tall and slim, along with having snow-white skin, long, shiny hair, and a young, pretty face. She captured Nian Junting’s heart as she came out of the dressing room.
Nian Junting was going to complain about Luo Sang not wearing a swimsuit, but after seeing her in that dress, he immediately shut his mouth. He sat quietly beside her, watching her do her skincare process and makeup.
When Luo Sang started applying foundation under her eyes, he was still watching her, and she couldn’t help but blush. “Can you go to the balcony to eat your breakfast?” she said.
“No, I want to look at you.” Nian Junting fixed his eyes on her. “It’s the first time I’ve seen you in a summer dress. How can you be so beautiful? Why didn’t I meet you in the summer?”
Luo Sang’s face turned so red that no foundation could hide it.
“Why are you wearing foundation?” Nian Junting continued, “You’re already so pretty.”
“Because… I didn’t rest well on the planes on our way here, so I have these dark circles under my eyes,” Luo Sang responded shyly, pretending to not hear the last part of what Nian Junting had said.
“Yeah? But you’re so beautiful. Even the dark circles look good on your face. Stop doing your makeup. I like you natural.” Nian Junting took away her foundation. “But we’re going to dive later. Is it okay for you to wear this?”
“I wore the swimsuit underneath.” Because of what Nian Junting had said, Luo Sang didn’t insist on finishing her makeup.
Afterwards, they sat on the balcony to have breakfast together. The sea breeze was gentle, and the green seawater was crystal clear. Two parrots landed on their table to peck at food. Breakfast was delicious, and Luo Sang hadn’t been so relaxed in a long time.
However, thinking about diving later, she got a little nervous and uneasy. “Later, can you dive alone? I’ll wait for you on the beach. I’ve only tried snorkeling before. I’m afraid that I can’t dive deep.”
“Why didn’t you tell me that earlier?” Nian Junting asked.
“I didn’t want to disappoint you, but I really have no courage to dive deep.” Luo Sang sighed helplessly. “Although I know that the underwater world is beautiful.”
“Yeah, it’s beautiful, with the fish and coral. You should try. But if you really can’t do it, we’ll just forget about it.” After saying that, Nian Junting ate a piece of pineapple with an unhappy face.
“And, there’s another thing…” Luo Sang hesitated for a moment and then said, “I know that you’re rich, but you don’t need to give the others such a big tip just because they’ve said something that you like to hear. You shouldn’t waste your money like that.”
“I won’t give my money to just anyone, unless they say that we’re a sweet couple, or that we love each other,” said Nian Junting carelessly.
“If every staff member on the island said that to you, would you pay them all? Maybe they’ll figure out what you like and say the words on purpose. I’ll bet that later on our way to the diving spot, the tour guide will say those words endlessly,” said Luo Sang.
Nian Junting thought for a few seconds, and then pushed his wallet to her and said, “You’ll be responsible for all of it.”
“I didn’t mean that…”
“I don’t care. From this day on, you’ll be responsible for the cost.” After saying that, Nian Junting leisurely turned away to feed the parrots.
Luo Sang found this both delightful and annoying. If she had known how he was going to react, she wouldn’t have said it.
