Chapter 1876: Ugly Monsters Have a Higher Head-Turning Rate

Ordinary ones are several thousand, and there are even clothes that cost ten thousand or tens of thousands.

Li Xue did not feel that a set of clothes needed to be that expensive, and she didn't care about brands either; as long as they looked good, she wouldn't buy anything too expensive.

If she wasn't satisfied with this mall, then she would just change to the next one.

The prices at the second mall were much more approachable; she chose a pale pink suit skirt, then picked out a white suit jacket and a pair of white high heels, and only then did she go to the first floor, satisfied, preparing to buy cosmetics.

Arriving at the cosmetics counter, she was troubled again.

There were too many dazzling cosmetics; buying them was no problem, but the problem was she didn't know how to use them!

Things like toners, emulsions, and face creams—she couldn't understand them at all.

Li Xueer stood in front of these things that made her dizzy, hesitating, hesitating because she didn't know what was good to buy.

The sales clerks were also the type to judge people by their appearance.

Seeing that Li Xue was dressed cheaply and had a bare face, they concluded that this person was not a customer, so they ignored her.

Even if she asked for the price, they were indifferent.

But Li Xue was targeted by another group of people.

These people were from a makeup school, at the mall to advertise and recruit students; the students provided free skincare and makeup for people in the mall—to put it bluntly, they were practicing!

A girl with a round face and big eyes approached Li Xueer and smiled kindly at her: "Beauty, do you want to get your makeup done? We offer free makeup here, why don't you come over and try it?"

Originally she had just asked casually, but she didn't expect Li Xueer to agree happily: "Really? Okay, I'll try it."

She thought free makeup was just right, as it could save her from buying those bottles and jars; she didn't feel too bad about spending a little money, but the problem was that whenever she thought about how she was clearly spending money yet still had to suffer indignity, she felt unhappy!

Why?

Did she have money with nowhere to spend it?

The round-faced girl was very enthusiastic, affectionately linking arms with Li Xueer, and started calling her "Beauty"; she changed the form of address after only walking a few steps, changing it to "Big Sister."

The round-faced girl was named Wang Xueer, a name that only differed from hers by one character.

The girl enthusiastically introduced herself: "Big Sister, I am the student with the best skills in our school. I will do your makeup myself in a moment, what do you think?"

The girl's innocent smile made Li Xueer feel very at ease.

She readily agreed: "Okay, you will do my makeup, it's settled."

Li Xueer was invited to sit on a chair, and quite a few students gathered around to observe!

At first she felt a bit awkward, but she soon got used to it.

Wang Xueer's technique was really good; she first used a cleansing cotton pad with facial cleanser to carefully perform a cleansing treatment for Li Xueer, gently massaging her face with her fingertips, praising her while cleansing.

"Big Sister, your skin is really good. You must usually use big-brand skincare products, right?"

Li Xue told the truth: "I don't use cosmetics, I've never used them."

The girl immediately cried out in surprise: "My god, Big Sister, you actually don't use cosmetics and your skin can still stay this supple and smooth? You must have some secret recipe, right? Can you teach me? Please teach me..."

Actually, Li Xueer was only twenty-two years old; at this age, it wasn't strange for her skin to be good even without using cosmetics, it was very normal.

But the girl's surprised manner made her feel very pleased.

"I can't teach you anything, I don't use any cosmetics at all..."

The two girls chatted very well, and time passed quickly without them noticing; the makeup was finished.

The girl happily held up a mirror and let her look: "Big Sister, look at yourself now, aren't you brand new?"

Li Xueer took a happy look and was so scared she almost screamed!

This wasn't brand new, this was a complete transformation!

What did the person in the mirror have to do with her? A perfectly fine person had been made into a monster.

Long eyebrows, black-purple eyeshadow, a bloody mouth, and highlighter on her face... the important thing was that the highlighter was applied too obviously.

"No, this is too exaggerated..."

Li Xueer was in a hurry to wipe it off, but as soon as she took out a tissue, it was snatched away.

The girl said to Li Xueer with conviction: "Big Sister, you can't wipe it off, believe me, this makeup looks very good on stage, it makes the features look very three-dimensional..."

Li Xueer: "I'm not going on stage."

The girl said: "If you aren't going on stage, you're going to a cafe, right? It's the same thing; the lighting in a cafe is dim, and without makeup, your face will look pale. Only with makeup will you look good, vivid and moving..."

The girl was particularly good at talking, and she managed to make Li Xue believe her words.

Besides, there was no time left now; if she washed off the makeup, there wouldn't be time to redo it.

Li Xueer decided to take a gamble and go on the date like this.

She went to the mall restroom to change into the new dress she had bought, and when she came out, she looked in the mirror a few more times; come to think of it, after looking at it more, it wasn't that scary, and she even felt it was a little pretty.

Li Xue walked out of the mall, and the head-turning rate was five hundred percent!

She held her head high and chest out, remembering the girl's words: "The more people look at you, the more beautiful you are; everyone likes beauty, no one would be willing to take an extra look at an ugly monster."

Li Xueer believed the girl's words too much and didn't think there was any problem with what she said at all.

Even when people on the street turned their heads to look at her frequently, she thought it was just because she was beautiful.

Peninsula Cafe was not far from here; there was no need to take a taxi, she could just walk there.

When Li Xueer arrived, Zichen had already arrived, and there was also a very handsome boy beside him.

Li Xueer walked to the opposite side of Zichen and sat down.

Zichen, however, did not recognize her and said very politely: "Sorry, Miss, I have an appointment, this seat is taken... are you Li Xueer?" The tone of the second half rose sharply, clearly not having expected it at all.

"Mm."

She lowered her head shyly, feeling happy inside.

But soon, one sentence from Zichen brought her back from her dream to reality.

Zichen: "My god, Li Xueer, what kind of shock did you have? Why did you make yourself look like this ghost?"

Li Xue looked up in astonishment and asked: "Is it not pretty?"

"It doesn't look good, of course it doesn't look good. You've made yourself up like a ghost; I even thought you were playing a prank. You don't actually think this looks good, do you?"

And the boy beside Zichen even more hurriedly dropped a sentence: "President Sheng, I just remembered I have something to do, I'm leaving first."

The boy was scared away, and Zichen spoke even more mercilessly: "Why on earth did you put on makeup like this, dressing up as a ghost in broad daylight to scare people?"

"I originally intended to introduce a boy for you to meet, but look, he didn't even see your real appearance before he was scared away..."

Li Xueer caught the main point: "What boy? Why would I want to meet him?"

Zichen said: "There's no harm in knowing more people. In case you two hit it off, you could just spend some time together..."

She understood; so Sheng Zichen wanted to introduce a boyfriend to her.

She immediately stopped regretting it; perhaps dressing up like this today could be considered a happy accident!

"You asked me to come here today just to introduce a boyfriend to me?"
