Chapter 108 - She married you for the money Part 2

After a long day of working in circles and trying to figure out which genes were responsible for energy conversion in plants, Su Lin soaked herself in the bath for a little longer than two hours.

A long bath always refreshed her body and mind.

This planet's gene-editing technology was completely new to her and there was lots of work left to be done.

Apparently each gene was responsible for a random function, like one for the color, one for growth, and so on.

After rushing through the basics, Su Lin wondered if she could actually isolate the genes which were responsible for energy conversion.

This was no small task and literally took all their time.

After her relaxing bath, Su Lin gently draped the towel on her wet nȧkėd body and walked out of the bathroom, to start her routine.

She always made sure to use her herbal moisturizer to improve the health of her skin, fresh after the bath.

But, this time when she walked out of the bathroom, her bedroom looked weirdly and completely empty. What ???

Su Lin looked around and didn't even find any change of clothes.

Of course, it was not like she couldn't guess who the culprit was!!

She immediately shouted at the top of her lungs and called out for the culprit. "Luther! Luther!! What the hell!!"

Luther immediately skidded into her vision from out of nowhere.

"I am here, my dear."

He looked at her with bright beaming eyes and smiled, very apparently excited about something.

He shoved the angry and surprised woman into the room next to hers.

"Hmm?" Su Lin was confused.

"Tsk Tsk... Still can't figure it out?? For a genius, you are pretty stupid!"

"Again, what?" Su Lin controlled her rising temper and calmly asked.

"Well, I read in one of the hundreds of fashion magazines you subscribe to, that a married couple really shouldn't be staying in two different rooms," Luther smirked.

He even added, "It's not good for your health, babe!"

"Is that so?" Su Lin revealed an evil smile and shut the door. Looks like this guy has too much time on his hands.

Luther chuckled and pulled her closer.

He restrained the fidgeting woman and then slowly whispered in her ears, "You should really hurry up and cover yourself. I can bȧrėly restrain myself as is."

Looking at that breathtakingly handsome face of his up-close, Su Lin's heart skipped a beat.

Her cheeks and ears instantly turned red, remembering the fond few minutes she had spent so intimately with him.

He gently lifted the woman who was blushing slightly with her eyes closed.

Her thin frail body fit so snugly in his arms. He could literally feel his pulse racing and his heart jumping.

Afraid to lose more control, he quickly put her down in front of the closet. "You should get ready for our date night this evening."

Su Lin recovered from her stupor and asked, "Read this in the magazine too?"

"Hehe... This time it's just common sense. Besides, I promise you won't regret this." Luther gave a mysterious smile and left the room, to give her some privacy.

As soon as he closed the door, he took a deep breath to calm himself down.

With his back pressed on the door, he smiled and murmured, "Damn it, woman!! Why do you always make me this nervous!!"

He then chuckled and went downstairs to carefully prepare every single moment of today's evening. Today needed to be special.

On the other side of the door, Su Lin cursed the handsome goofy guy and opened the closet to throw something on.

Only to find herself pleasantly surprised...

Opening the closet door, was like opening a treasure trove.

Everything inside was literally glittering and shining.

A multitude of insanely beautiful and elegant high-end designer dresses was littered in the huge closet.

And he didn't stop with that!

There were gorgeous shoes and lavish purses for every style she could think of.

Su Lin couldn't help but feel a bit moved. Not because of all these cloth shaped money, but because of the kind and loving gesture behind it.

This was not some randomly thrown together bunch of designer clothes.

My handsome thug!

Su Lin smiled and helped herself to a light emerald green dress, which perfectly complemented her pale skin tone.

Since he put so much effort, she also wanted to do something special for him.

She took out her self-made beauty products, which were neatly organized on one side and took her sweet time, slowly and steadily painting her face.

That did not necessarily mean slapping her face with thick wads of beauty products, rather elegantly and artfully accentuating her contours and bone structures.

Makeup is an art, a very underrated one.

With the right strokes and the smooth touches, even the most hopeless and awkward looking face could be recovered, and even made to look spectacular!
