Chapter 7, The Makeup Techniques of the Monster Girl

Zhao Yanqin immediately burst into laughter, and if she hadn't grabbed Xu Liao's arm, Xu Liao would have been worried that this mischievous girl might fall over from laughing. After laughing for quite a while, Zhao Yanqin finally said: "I have never heard of cilantro becoming a spirit, so you can rest assured, I am not a cilantro spirit!"

Zhao Yanqin seemed to completely ignore Gao Wenhui, gracefully linking her arm with Xu Le's, laughing softly as she pulled Xu Le away, creating a refreshing and fragrant breeze that left Gao Wenhui feeling utterly embarrassed.

Zhao Yanqin chuckled softly, blinked her eyes, and linked her arm with Xu Liao's. Her voice turned charming as she lowered it and said: "At last, I can reveal my true self. It has been quite difficult for me to hold back in my usual manner! Do you think I look good like this?"

Xu Liao casually replied, but soon he reflected on it and realized he had misspoken, feeling somewhat embarrassed for a moment

After hesitating for a moment, he still spoke frankly: "It's very beautiful! Why don't you dress like this at school?"

Zhao Yanqin's small mouth slightly opened, her little face suddenly flushed crimson, and she said softly: "You still do not know what kind of monster I am!"

He couldn't help but feel slightly astonished, as he truly did not know that the COS club would come here to change clothes. Although he realized it was a misunderstanding, he was at a loss for how to explain it at that moment

Zhao Yanqin, however, did not care; she laughed while eating, her mood very good, and softly said: "Many humans are afraid of monsters. If they were to discover my true identity, they would surely find ways to harm me"

Gao Wenhu furrowed his brows slightly, dismissing the others and allowing them to leave first, while he quickly walked towards Xu Liao. He lowered his voice and said: "Qu Lei has already gone home and is not with us. She must have known you would be waiting here, which is why she left early. I think what you are doing is a bit excessive; Qu Lei does not like you. Is there any point in your continued pursuit?"

Gao Wenhui was even more surprised than Xu, stunned by Zhao Yanqin's extraordinary beauty. His mouth fell open, and he completely forgot to close it. Only after Zhao Yanqin spoke did he realize to close his mouth, wiping the corner of his lips, only to find a long, glistening strand of saliva hanging there, which he swung a few times but it did not break, instantly turning his face a deep shade of red from embarrassment

He curled his lips in disdain, feeling unconvinced deep down, yet he did not pursue the matter further. He simply felt that Zhao Yanqin's emotions were unpredictable, making it difficult for him to grasp the thoughts of this enigmatic girl, so he decided not to think about it at all.

Upon entering the hotel, Zhao Yanqin instructed Xu Le to wait in the lobby while she slipped away to the stairwell

Zhao Yanqin shot him a glance and said, "Didn’t you say that as long as it’s not cilantro essence, you wouldn’t care? Why must you ask a girl this question? Such personal questions are quite embarrassing!"

He stayed in the hotel lobby for a while, but did not wait for Zhao Yanqin to return. Instead, he saw a group of people coming out of the elevator, led by Gao Wenhui, the leader of Qu Lei's club, surrounded by several team members, exuding an air of elegance and grace.

After Zhao Yanqin stepped out of the hotel door, she blinked and continued, "I am unwilling to study in a place inhabited by monsters, so I have to change my appearance and make myself a bit uglier. Otherwise, I would definitely have boys pursuing me, which is quite bothersome. I am a monster and cannot easily engage with boys, unless the other party agrees to marry into my family!"

Xu Le was completely shocked!

Originally, Zhao Yanqin could score a maximum of 45 points, but now the score can exceed 120 points

Three parts charm, three parts allure, three parts sensuality, and one part compelling youth

Gao Wenhui saw that Xu had not spoken, and with the intention of putting a little more pressure on this chubby boy, he said in a deep voice: "Do you think you are worthy of Qu Lei? When you walk together, don't you think Qu Lei will be laughed at by others? If you truly care for Qu Lei, then keep your distance from her, and do not participate in any activities with our club in the future. I speak on behalf of the club in saying that you are not welcome."

Xu Liao could not help but say: "If someone harms you, I will come to protect you."

Xu Liao curiously asked, "Then what kind of monster are you?"

In just a few short minutes, this monster girl transformed from an ordinary girl, who would not attract any attention, into an extraordinarily beautiful maiden, stunningly beautiful to the point of astonishment

Zhao Yanqin chuckled and said, "It will attract a lot of toads! Like the one on your left... and the one drooling too."

"Becoming a son-in-law! What is so difficult about that?"

These individuals have likely just finished their performance and are checking into the hotel to change their clothes. Qu Lei is not among the crowd, and Xu Lewei feels a bit of regret, yet still displays a somewhat warm smile and greets loudly.

When Xu Liao was about to retort, Gao Wenhui thought he was still not giving up. His expression darkened, and lowering his voice, he said ominously: "Have you ever looked in the mirror? With that toad-like appearance of yours, you think you can be with Qu Lei? I can guarantee that even the ugliest girl in your school wouldn't like you. I'm giving you face today, if..." Just as Gao Wenhui was going on and preparing to deliver a barrage of eighteen strikes to Xu Liao, a voice like silver bells, filled with a hint of cheerfulness, interrupted him: "Xu Liao! Xu Liao! Are you anxious?"

The changes in her appearance are still within the acceptable range, but Zhao Yanqin has not only altered her attire; it seems she has performed some kind of magic. Her face has slimmed down a bit, yet it appears more rounded, her eyes have grown larger, her eyebrows have lengthened slightly and arched a bit, the bridge of her nose has become a touch more prominent, and the corners of her mouth have turned upwards, with her lips becoming more rosy. From the contours of her brows and eyes, one can still discern Zhao Yanqin's original features, yet she now presents an entirely different visage. Coupled with her attire, she resembles a little fairy, exuding an ethereal charm.

Zhao Yanqin pressed her lips together, shook her head, and said: "Some people can accept fox spirits, snake spirits, and even fairies that have transformed from mammals without any issue. Some people are also not averse to inanimate objects becoming sentient, but they have a strong dislike for insects becoming sentient, especially centipede spirits and scorpion spirits. You know what my true form is; perhaps you would dislike it as well"

Xu readily replied, "What does it matter what kind of monster it is? Aren't they all just monsters anyway?"

Zhao Yanqin smiled gently, waving her hand at Xu Le. She changed into a light purple long dress and slightly altered her hairstyle, letting her ponytail down, with her flowing black hair cascading over her shoulders. Instantly, her entire demeanor transformed.

With Zhao Yanqin's interruption, he completely forgot that the two of them had been holding hands all along, their demeanor very intimate, just like a young couple

A few words from Gao Wenhui left Xu Le feeling anxious, causing the smile on his face to fade. Although he had a good temper, he was not someone to be easily bullied. Gao Wenhui's words were truly piercing; even though Xu Le did not wish to confront him, he could not tolerate him either.

Xu Le thought for a moment and resolutely said: "As long as it is not coriander essence, I am not afraid!"
