Love at First Novel by Gu Lingfei

Chapter 1321
“I’ll help you with your makeup, honey.”
Serenity complied with his wishes and changed into the most conservative dress in her wardrobe. Zachary volunteered to help
his wife with her makeup again.
Serenity refused without even thinking about it.
“I still care about my appearance.”
Her words made Zachary’s mouth flap several times without saying anything.
His reaction amused Serenity, and she asked with a smile, “Do you know how to do makeup? Don’t think I don’t know what
you’re thinking. You’re going to paint my face like a ghost so no one will look at me.”
Zachary was speechless. “I’ve never helped a woman with her makeup before, but I wouldn’t make you look like a ghost to scare
people.”
“Forget it, I can’t trust you. I’ll do it myself. Go and get yourself ready. We’ll be heading out soon.” Zachary refused to leave and
said, “I don’t have anything to prepare. I just need to change into a suit, switch my home slippers for leather shoes, and the
finishing touch will be you helping me with my tie.”
He did not need to apply makeup.
He was born handsome. Makeup would only make his handsome face look ugly instead.
Zachary York never wore makeup.
“We don’t have to rush. It doesn’t matter if we’re late as long as we show up.”
In previous years, Zachary always showed up very late to the Marshalls‘ banquet. He would not stay long before leaving either.
He was used to being late and leaving early.
Serenity went back to the vanity and sat down, combing her hair while saying, “You’re used to being late and leaving early.”
“I don’t like to be surrounded by them.”

“It’s because you’re the eldest young master of the York family.”
Zachary said, “I wouldn’t be able to marry you if I wasn’t the eldest.”
If he was not the eldest, his nana would not have let him marry Serenity.
Knock, knock.
Someone knocked on the door.
“Go open the door.”
Serenity chased him away lest he chatter in her ears endlessly. She never dreamt that one day, the mature and calm Mr. York
would become a broken record, nagging her so much that her head hurt.
Zachary darted over to press a kiss on her cheeks. Just when she was about to slap him away, he swiftly ran off to open the
door.
“Mr. Zachary.”
A maid stood at the door of the room and said respectfully when Zachary opened the door, “Your parents have arrived.”
Zachary hummed and closed the door again.
“Who was it?” Serenity asked as she put on her makeup.
“My parents are here.”
“Well, why aren’t you going downstairs then?”
“This is their son’s home. They’re free to do whatever they want here. They don’t need me to accompany them.”
Zachary went up behind Serenity and watched her put on her makeup. “Honey, you don’t need to dress up so beautifully. In fact,
I think you look great au naturel. You’re naturally beautiful, so you’re still the most beautiful woman on earth even without
makeup.”
“Don’t say I’m the most beautiful woman on earth. You’ll make people die of laughter.”

“You’re the most beautiful woman in my eyes. Just light makeup is enough.”
If asked for his opinion, he would say that his wife was better off without makeup.
There would be many people tonight. He really did not like other men staring at her.
Even if they looked at her secretly, he would still be upset.
“Just go downstairs already!”
