Tong Nuanchen stood there in a daze, looking at Si Boming's back as he fled in panic. He sighed slightly, feeling mixed emotions.

Tong Nuanchen stayed in the hotel lobby the entire afternoon, constantly glancing at the elevator.

Si Bo Ming drank a lot of wine, and his steps were unsteady when he left. She was worried, and after a mental struggle, she decided to go to the top floor.

Tong Nuanchen came to the top floor. There were no guests there at this time, and the imported wool carpet absorbed the sound of her footsteps.

She raised her hand and wanted to knock on the door, but she was worried that Si Boming didn't want to see her, so she squeezed the thing in her hand and knocked on the door anyway.

Si Boming didn't seem to wake up, and no one came to answer the door.

Tong Nuanchen had no choice but to leave first.

With a click, the door of the suite opened.

"Mr. Si?"

Si Boming reeked of alcohol, his shirt was disheveled, and his face showed impatience for being woken up.

"Is...something wrong?" Si Boming saw the person clearly and his eyes avoided, as if the scar would disappear if he blinked a few more times.

"I..." Tong Nuanchen raised the small bottle in his hand.

"Come in first!" The posture of tilting the head was uncomfortable.

Tong Nuanchen sat on the sofa in the suite. Si Boming poured her a glass of water and sat on the sofa on the other side, just enough to cover the scar on her right cheek.

"Boss Si," Tong Nuanchen put the small bottle on the table, "This is for you. It's liquid foundation. It's very effective in covering scars."

Si Boming picked up the bottle and looked at it, his face calm yet suppressed.

"You don't think I'm ugly because of this scar?" Si Boming said with a wry smile.

"Everyone loves beauty. Everyone wants to make themselves beautiful, and I am no exception."

"If I cover my scar, won't others be able to see it? Will they think it's a deception?"

"Of course not. Women all like to wear makeup to cover up dark circles, acne, and blemishes on their faces. Is every woman deceiving others?"

"But I'm different. I have a scar. In the past, I really liked the gangsters in the movies. I thought they were handsome and brave, so I learned from them for a few years. But in a fight, I got scratched on the face by the opponent. I thought it was just an ordinary scratch, but I didn't expect that the scar would remain on my face forever. From then on, I was only brave, not handsome anymore."

Tong Nuanchen lowered his head and smiled.

"I didn't expect that Mr. Si would like Infernal Affairs."

“Who hasn’t done a few stupid things when they were young?”

Tong Nuanchen handed the bottle to Si Boming.

"I see that your scar is on your eyelid. The skin there is very fragile and prone to aging. The liquid foundation I mixed has fine particles and has a skin-nourishing effect. It is very good for the skin."

"You adjusted it yourself? You can do this?"

"When I was a child, my family was very poor. We had trouble even getting food, so how could we have spare money to buy cosmetics? I made some based on what I read in books. For example, soap, shampoo, and lipstick for daily use were all made by me."

"You made the one you're using now?"

"The foundation is from here, but I bought the lipstick myself. I adjusted the color of the foundation a little bit, so when you apply it, just apply it on the scars..."

Si Bo Ming suddenly hugged Tong Nuan Chen and slowly tightened his arms.

"Mr. Si? Mr. Si?" Tong Nuanchen struggled a few times but failed to break free from Si Boming's restraints.

"Many women have told me that men with scars are handsome. I don't care about your scars. No one has ever given me liquid foundation."

Si Boming let go of Tong Nuanchen and touched the liquid foundation on the table.

"Why did you give me foundation? Do you also think the scar on my face needs to be covered up?"

"I gave you liquid foundation because you wanted to cover up your scar. Everyone has something unacceptable in their hearts. Why should others not care about this unacceptable thing? If you care about it, you should protect it well."

Si Bo Ming raised the corners of his lips.

"Boss Si, it's getting late and I have work to do."

Tong Nuanchen didn't listen to what Si Boming said and just got up and left.
