After taking a shower, Luca put on her pajamas and wrapped a towel around her head. She opened the bathroom door and walked out.

Luke's eyes sparkled like stars. The moment he saw her coming out, he smiled. "Done with your shower?" "Yes. Is your hair dry?" asked Luca while glancing at his hair. It seemed dry.

"Yes, it's dry. Short hair has its advantages," replied Luke. Short hair dried quickly.

"I'll dry my hair first," said Luca as she sat in front of the dressing table. She noticed that all her makeup and skincare products were on the table.

She glanced at Luke.

"I noticed you hadn't taken them out yet, so I took them out for you," said Luke. He walked behind her and picked up the hairdryer. "Let's save some time. You do your skincare and I'll help you with your hair."

"Okay." Luca felt like she might be overthinking it. Was he implying something with this suggestion...

Luca immediately dismissed her own thoughts. It definitely was not what she was thinking.

He was probably talking about going to bed. They needed to be in their best condition for tomorrow's events.

Luke did not notice Luca's thoughts. He simply turned on the hairdryer and started drying her hair.

While drying Luca’s hair and using his fingers as a comb, he smoothed her long hair bit by bit. He occasionally massaged her scalp.

Luca enjoyed his attentive service and began her skincare routine.

She definitely needed to put on makeup for tomorrow’s event. Therefore, she had to ensure her skincare routine was thorough so that her makeup would look flawless tomorrow.

Once her hair was dry, Luca finished her skincare routine and started applying hand cream.

Luke placed the hairdryer back and said, "I never realized you used so many skincare products on your face."

Even though he could not name any of them, he noticed that Luca's skincare routine was more elaborate than usual.

Compared to now, it used to be much simpler.
