C49 (1/2)
That was true. If it wasn't for her willingness, ordinary people wouldn't be able to get close to her.
In order to see clearly, Zhu Guanliang could only move closer to her. She didn't know where to look, and asked with a frown, ”Is it done?”
”Be patient.”
He dipped his hand in the rouge, then rubbed it away with the flank of his finger. Then he used Stoney to draw her eyebrows, with a serious expression, as if she would really look better if he did it.
After an unknown amount of time had passed, Zhou Leping was about to fall asleep. He finally stopped attending to her face, and stood up straight with a stern expression.
Before even looking in the mirror, Zhou Leping had already sensed that something was amiss from his eyes, ”Give me the mirror.”
Zhu Guanliang extended his hand out and handed the mask to her, ”It's getting late, it's time to go back.”
”What did you do to my face?”
He shook his head.
Zhou Leping did not believe his nonsense, he pushed her away and looked in the mirror.
The moment he saw the person in the mirror, Zhou Leping had a kind of ghastly shock. Before the rouge, she was already ugly, an ugly that was purely unadulterated, but after Zhu Guanliang smeared the rouge on her face, she became shockingly ugly.
He was originally ugly to behold. Now, his two eyebrows were like two black bugs crawling on his face, and his cheeks were red and pinkish. It didn't look like it was painted on, but more like he was beaten up.
”Dr Zhu is really... ”Good craftsmanship!”
She gritted her teeth as she struggled to utter those words, her fists clenching so hard that crackling sounds could be heard.
”This is also my first time trying it out. If the general is not satisfied, I will try it again.”
”Try my ass! What do you think is your daddy's face? Are you playing with me like I'm a monkey? ” She pointed at his face, ”Let me warn you, if you dare to speak even half a word about today's matter, then hurry up and notify your friend here General's Estate to retrieve your corpse!”
At first, his face was calm and emotionless, but when she touched his face with her finger, his expression changed and he took hold of her index finger, which was tapping his face. ”I won't tell.”
He was still full of energy. He had painted himself in such a manner, yet he had not done anything to him yet. He was even angry. What kind of nonsense was this?
”Better.”
She furiously retracted her hand and put on her mask. When she saw that he was frowning and his face was filled with impatience, she immediately fumed, ”You have been in General's Estate for so long, but is this the first time I've seen your dark face? ”You made me look like this, do you still have the face to get angry?”
Zhu Guanliang didn't like it when people were pointing their fingers at his face the most. Just now, Zhou Leping's fingers were almost on his face, he restrained himself from saying anything and tried his best to endure.
”The rouge has the effects of heaven's gate, pearl powder and dodder, it can moisturize the skin, whether it looks good or not, there's no harm in using it on the face of the general.”
”So you're saying, this general has misunderstood you?”
”It's late, and the general is wearing a mask. No one will find out.”
The fire in Zhou Leping's chest sprung up, and in the end, was afraid of killing him if he accidentally made a mistake, he left in large strides, leaving his opponent far behind.
When she woke up the next morning, it was unknown if it was due to some psychological factors, but when she looked at herself in the mirror, she actually felt that her skin was slightly better than before.
However, ugliness was still the same.
She placed the bronze mirror on the table and called Qu Tan over. ”There's a rouge shop in the west of the city named Yue Yan, go and buy me a few boxes of their rouge.”
Qu Tan did not understand, ”General, what do you want rouge for?”
