Chapter 205: Chapter 205: A Complete Transformation

Hua Buwan gently unscrewed the cap of a delicate cosmetics bottle, a faint smile playing on her lips. She turned her gaze to Ling Qianjun beside her and asked softly, "What kind of image do you want to dress up as? A mature and steady middle-aged man? A weather-beaten elderly man? Or something more unique?"

Ling Qianjun raised his eyes slightly, his gaze landing on Hua Buwan’s meticulously painted middle-aged woman makeup. He wondered if he disguised himself as a middle-aged man and stood next to Hua Buwan, would they look like a well-matched married couple? The moment this thought surfaced, it washed over his heart like a tidal wave, bringing a faint, almost imperceptible flush to his normally fair cheeks.

"Um... let’s go with a middle-aged man," Ling Qianjun said, trying hard to keep his voice steady, though he couldn’t quite hide a trace of subtle shyness.

Hua Buwan nodded in understanding. Then, she turned to Xu Panqing, Ling Qianfan, and Ling Yunge nearby, smiling as she said, "You three can also start thinking about what kind of look you want. When it’s your turn, just let me know."

Hearing this, Xu Panqing, Ling Qianfan, and Ling Yunge nodded vigorously, indicating they understood her instructions perfectly. They immediately fell into deep thought. Various images began flashing rapidly through their minds. They struggled over whether to choose a bold, eye-catching look or play it safe with an ordinary, unremarkable appearance.

For a moment, the entire room fell quiet. Only the sound of occasional soft breathing and the subtle rustle of makeup tools could be heard.

Hua Buwan’s mastery of makeup wasn’t achieved overnight; she had gradually learned and honed her skills after starting college. Back when she was obsessed with reading all kinds of novels, she had been full of curiosity and longing for the mysterious and unpredictable art of disguise described in the stories. Later, while scrolling through short videos online, she frequently saw influencers showing off their stunning makeup transformations. Driven by intense curiosity, Hua Buwan plunged into this fascinating world without hesitation, completely captivated. Whenever she had spare time, she would specifically set some aside to practice her makeup techniques. Over time, she accumulated experience and constantly experimented with new styles. Gradually, her makeup skills improved day by day, reaching a point where they could be considered quite impressive.

More importantly, Hua Buwan had shown a remarkable talent for drawing since childhood, which undoubtedly laid a solid foundation for her skills in makeup and disguise. After all, disguise was, to some extent, simply carefully painting a canvas on a person’s face. As long as one grasped the key principles and applied them proficiently, it became effortless and second nature.

At this moment, Ling Qianjun sat quietly, letting Hua Buwan work her magic on his face. He could only feel her gentle fingers tracing lines back and forth across his cheeks, sometimes lightly applying color, other times meticulously outlining contours in black or red.
