Chapter 1804 - 1805: Bring Me a Razor
Chapter 1804: Chapter 1805: Bring Me a Razor
"Alright!"
Rong Yan quickly straightened her skirt, climbed off the bed, and gripping her phone, she left the room.
...
On the other side, in the airplane.
The man set his phone down, his sharply defined handsome face bathed in the glow of the sunset, as perfect as a deity.
He slightly raised his thin lips, touched his chin, feeling the prickly sensation reminding him that his stubble had grown out.
— I don’t want to see you looking scruffy with a beard.
Li Shengxiao half-closed his eyelids, his long and dense lashes covering his dark pupils. He called out in a low voice, "Gu Ming."
A man with a proper appearance and dressed in a suit immediately appeared within his sight range, hands clasped together, respectfully bowing his head, "Mr. Li, you called me?"
He noticed a bowl of plain porridge and side dishes along with a glass of water placed in front of Li Shengxiao’s seat, and his eyes almost popped out in shock.
Though he didn’t understand why the master, who had refused to eat or rest, suddenly decided to eat, he dared not ask.
Since Young Madam disappeared, Mr. Li didn’t say anything, but his temper had been at its worst, even Mr. Shen had suffered terribly, and Gu Ming doubted he would fare any better.
At times like this, reducing his presence was the key to survival!
"Find me a razor."
"Huh?"
Gu Ming, who was contemplating his survival tactics, looked up in surprise, doubting his ears.
Under his gaze, Li Shengxiao curled his lips upward, seemingly thinking of something, then changed his mind, "Forget it. Arrange a room for me after we land, I’ll change clothes and take a shower before heading out. For now, have someone bring me that blanket, I’m going to sleep for a while."
"..."
Mr. Li, Mr. Li wants to sleep?!
His jaw nearly dropped to the floor.
Previously, even after persuasion from the Madam, Mr. Cui, and Mr. Fu, urging Mr. Li to rest for even half an hour, nothing worked. Mr. Li stubbornly kept his eyes open throughout two nights without eating or sleeping, leaving Madam so anxious that her tears couldn’t move him.
Now, with England approaching, Mr. Li suddenly announced he wanted to rest.
This...
Gu Ming felt a sense of disbelief akin to a comet hitting Earth.
Li Shengxiao waited a while without hearing a reply from him, lifted his eyelids, and gave him a glance, "Didn’t hear me? Bring me a blanket."
He quickly snapped out of it, immediately replying, "Alright, certainly. Please wait a moment, Mr. Li."
Soon enough, he called a flight attendant over, removed the unfinished food from in front of Li Shengxiao, brought a brand new blanket, and dimmed the lights in first class.
Li Shengxiao lay in the space that seemed small for him, raised his hand, and checked the watch on his wrist.
7:15.
The plane had 45 minutes until reaching the airport.
That meant he could nap for half an hour.
Half an hour was enough.
At least enough for him to adjust his state, so when she saw him later, she wouldn’t despise his scruffy beard or find him unattractive.
He had never experienced this feeling of caring about appearance, but hearing her say that his face was appealing and would attract her attention, and her reluctance to see him looking desolate, somehow made this face suddenly seem important.
He slowly closed his eyelids; normally, having gone without rest for two days and nights, he should be very tired and exhausted, but for some reason, upon hearing her voice, hearing her say what she wanted to tell him, his entire body was filled with energy.
