Guide To Reign My Tycoon Husbands - Chapter 31

Chapter 31: To put oneself ahead
-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*

The following morning, Xu Suisui stared at his reflection in the mirror. He didn’t think much of it when Luo Huian gave him a vial that did not even have a name.

He thought that the ointment was something small that Luo Huian picked up from somewhere. But now…

“Miss Huian, where did you get that ointment from?” Xu Suisui asked while touching his skin. He only used three drops of that ointment on his face and a bit was used on his body.

Luo Huian also asked him to take a bath with water that had two drops of that ointment, which he did.

The consumption was nothing compared to the skin care he used every day in his college. Just a few drops and his skin turned supple and white. Even though it was not as good as it was when he was young, it was definitely much better than he looked in the past few years.

At least the dark circles and the yellowing skin were getting better.

Luo Huian rolled her eyes. She made up a lie and replied, “This is something that I got from a rather skilled hunter but then she died. There are not many of these vials, so you better use this one carefully and don’t let anyone snatch it like your company.”

The immortal who refined the skin whitening and beautifying ointment for Luo Huian: “…”

You little girl, I treated you so well and you killed me off? I am your uncle!

The man roared in his room! If not for the fact that he had a teensy, tiny bit of affection for his niece, he would have stopped looking after her.

When Xu Suisui heard Luo Huian’s response, he was in fact not that surprised. He knew very well how dangerous it was for hunters. As long as they awakened a low-ranking power, they would be killed or hunted down.

The officials were no longer in power, and the hunters ruled the world now. As long as a hunter was awakened, he or she would either be taken under a guild or they would be made contracted slaves by the guilds.

The low ranking hunters would have to go to the dungeons where they would have to hunt down beasts or bring ores and rare minerals from the dungeons for the guild.

‘This hunter must have died in the dungeon raid. After all, with strength and power taking the spots at the top, what can one do with beautifying powers?’ Xu Suisui thought. However, he still thought that it was a pity, this ointment was really good.

If that hunter was alive, he would have made her, his personal beautician.

“How many vials do you have, Miss Luo?” Xu Suisui turned to look at Luo Huian who was rummaging in his wardrobe.

“Enough for me to last a lifetime,” Luo Huian answered. Of course, she was only talking about herself, and she wasn’t lying either. If her uncle refused to hand her another vial, she would complain to her dad.

Let her see how Jiao Bo would straighten her uncle.

The uncle: “…” Others have nieces who care for their uncles, I have a niece who always thinks of pitting me.

Xu Suisui wanted to ask if she was willing to share but then he thought about their relationship and stopped. The two of them were not even acquainted, how could he be thick-skinned enough to make a request like this to Luo Huian?

He instead turned his attention to Luo Huian’s actions and questioned, “Miss Luo, why are you turning my wardrobe upside down?” He wasn’t exaggerating. The wardrobe that his housekeeper arranged properly was turned into a mess in the hands of Luo Huian.

He was slightly helpless when he saw this but Xu Suisui did not say anything rude to Luo Huian. Who asked her to be his saviour?

“I am trying to look for something that is not baggy, too colourful or old fashioned,” Luo Huian replied as she threw another large tee shirt on the floor. She could not understand, this mer was a fashion designer. He had a modelling company as well as a clothes designing company…what was he doing wearing things like these?

As she thought about such things, Luo Huian turned to look at Xu Suisui. Of course, her expression was too vivid and Xu Suisui’s flushed in embarrassment.

“It is not that I don’t want to dress up, Miss Luo,” he immediately cleared up the doubts. “But I have a lot of work to do every day, dressing up like this helps me as I have to run around and fix this and that or finish up the requests placed by the clients. Not to mention after I gave birth, I became a bit fat… wearing clothes that fit me too well became a hindrance.” Of course, these were flimsy excuses that he told others.

What he did not tell Luo Huian was that for the sake of getting his wife more connections, he worked day and night. He had burned so much night oil that Xu Suisui did not even know how hard he had worked in the past few years.

For the sake of his wife, he had completely forgotten about himself. He only cared about satisfying the clients and making connections with them, where would he get the time to dress up?

He could have designed some clothes for himself but Xu Suisui thought it was a waste of time. Instead of focusing on himself, he thought it was better to use that time to finish another draft for the clients, it would help him and his wife.

‘For Xinyi, I have placed myself at the last in the list of my priorities…yet look where it brought me,’ thought Xu Suisui bitterly.

He did not wish to embarrass himself by telling Luo Huian that he had worked so hard for a woman who did not even care about his life and death.

With her attitude, she would certainly disdain him for doing so much for a woman like Pan Xinyi.

Luo Huian heard his words and rolled her eyes. Since she knew that there was nothing good in the wardrobe, she did not waste her time. Instead, she strode out and said, “Then we only have one last option left. First, we need to buy you some new clothes. If they do not fit you then you can just readjust them according to your fit, Mister Xu.”

“However, if you want your wife to regret these sacks will not help you. Other than that…when was the last time you cut your hair? I am sorry to say but you look like a shaggy dog,” Luo Huian pointed out as she looked at the auburn hair which was flying in all directions.

‘Was this mer really a fashion designer? I really doubt his abilities,’ thought Luo Huian and even thought of suggesting Xu Suisui to change his profession.
