Chapter 391: Preparing for the Masquerade
The streets of the black market are bustling, and a Roman column appears every five meters on the side of the road, adding to the retro feel of many streets.
After not getting any news from Wu Nuo from Shirley for a long time, Qin Changxu was a little irritable in his heart.
Even though he might be discovered by Fei Yanchuan's people, Qin Changxu still wrapped himself tightly and walked on the streets of the black market.
A noble lady on the street and an American burst out with a long list of English, and Qin Changxu heard the general meaning, "Have you prepared your dress for the recent masquerade ball on our black market?"
"Of course, what an important ball." The lady on the side also spoke fluent English.
Qin Changxu stood next to them and probably heard the meaning.
There is an annual masquerade ball on the black market, and the scale can be said to be quite luxurious and grand, and the ball is approaching, just in these days.
"Hello, will Fei Yanchuan also participate in this masquerade?" Qin Changxu spoke fluently in English to the two noblewomen.
The two noble ladies wearing cheongsams and animal fur outside heard the voice and looked at Qin Changxu: "Of course, the ball needs a man and a woman to go together, and when the time comes, Fei Yanchuan will take a female companion and travel to the masquerade ball together."
When the noble lady said Fei Yanchuan, her hands were clasped together under her chin, and her face also showed an expression of adoration.
Listening to the noble woman's words, Qin Changxu stood aside, thoughtfully, if the men and women of the dance party go together, Fei Yanchuan will inevitably take Wu Nuo with him.
Shirley's home is near here, so Qin Changxu directly asked her out.
Cafe.
Copper-gold sconces hang on the walls, and the heavy woodwork coffee tables add a retro and extravagant feel to the entire café.
Even though the time was in a hurry, Shirley saw Qin Changxu before going out, and she also dressed up carefully.
"Is there something wrong with coming to me so actively today?" Thinking of the last time she was drunk, the confession to Qin Changxu was still vivid, she played with the pale red nails she had just made, dragged one hand under her chin, and asked Qin Changxu.
"The annual masquerade party on the black market, you know?" Qin Changxu sat opposite Shirley and directly told her the purpose of his visit.
"You know, what do you want to do in these two days?" Shirley stopped playing with her nails, and when she heard Qin Changxu ask this, she felt that it was not simple.
"I want to use this ball to see Wunuo." Qin Changxu said.
Shirley looked at Qin Changxu and didn't know what she was thinking, Shirley didn't know how Qin Changxu knew about the black market at this ball.
But she knew that the contact between the two of them was only because of Wu Nuo, if she couldn't even help Qin Changxu with this little thing, then she would really lose trust with him.
"Okay, I'll help you with the prom, but what good can I get from you?" Shirley asked Qin Changxu without hesitation.
"So you're not going to help me? Benefits, as long as I can do it later, I will help you, how about it?" Qin Changxu lowered his posture and said to Shirley.
"Forget it." Shirley sighed lightly, as long as he promised to be able to do it, it was all he didn't need.
Unable to refuse Qin Changxu, Shirley could only agree and left directly.
The important person at the masquerade ball needs Fei Yanchuan to attend, and Fei Yanchuan's female companion is indispensable because he needs Wu Nuo to take on the role.
When Shirley returned to the United States, she approached Wunuo and taught her the rules at the prom.
"You also know Fei Yanchuan's current situation, he is pretending to be stupid, and you, as his female companion, are on the side to help them get through, how about it?" Shirley sat down on the couch with Wu Nuo and asked her.
"Can I skip the ball and be his female companion?" For some activities in the outside world, let alone with Fei Yanchuan, Wu Nuo didn't want to do it at all.
"No, being the female companion at Fei Yanchuan's ball, that's what many women dream of, and now that you're replaced, don't you agree?" Although Shirley was very strict with Wu Nuo, her tone was gentle, and she wanted to reshape her relationship with Wu Nuo.
"Okay, then I'll attend Fei Yanchuan's female companion at the ball." Wu Nuo complied with Shirley's request, and then listened to Shirley talk to her about the rules of the black market ball.
"The masquerade, as the name suggests, is when everyone attends the ball, they wear a mask on their face." Shirley walked around Wuno's room, talking to her about the rules.
"At that time, the people attending the ball will be some high-class people, and at that time, you just have to follow Fei Yanchuan all the time, and don't worry about the rest." Shirley said.
Wu Nuo sat on the sofa, listening carefully to Shirley's rules, and Shirley was still smiling at Wu Nuo as before.
But Wu Nuo looked at Shirley in front of him, but he couldn't get close to her feelings anymore.
"Okay, I know all these processes, thank you, you can go first." Wu Nuo said.
Shirley looked at Wu Nuo, who was so indifferent in front of her, and she made the relationship between the two of them like this, and Shirley felt very guilty.
"Okay, then you memorize it by yourself, then I'll go first." Shirley then walked out of Wuno's room and closed the door with him.
Although she felt very guilty about Wu Nuo, she didn't regret it when she thought of Qin Changxu.
On the day of the ball, Wu Nuo was taken to a luxurious makeup parlor by the driver and a few servants who followed him.
A huge crystal ball lamp in the hall is very eye-catching, and the doors and windows are also made of European-style princess style, which adds a bit of fantasy to the style of the entire makeup club.
And this is a big makeup club, where the headdress necklace room, the dressing room, and the dress room are all independent, and the materials are luxury goods imported from abroad, ordinary people can't get here, let alone paint makeup in it, or buy something.
"Miss Wu's skin is really good, it's really like an ancient word, it can be broken by blowing."
The makeup artist had already booked in advance and was waiting for Wu Nuo's arrival early, so as soon as Wu Nuo came, the makeup artist greeted him directly.
"It's over, and your skin is good." Wu Nuo sat on the sofa and let the makeup artist design her look.
"Usually people who come here for styling will put their hair up, but Miss Wu's long hair is so good-looking, black and bright, let's put it on for you."
The makeup artist played with Wu Nuo's long hair, and there was envy in his tone.
"Well, okay, whatever you want." Wu Nuo patiently sat on the sofa and answered every question the makeup artist had.
Immediately, the makeup artist found a headdress from the headdress room that matched the hair he was wearing, and walked over to Wunuo with a tray.
"Miss Wu, let's see which of these hair accessories you like?" The makeup artist asked her as she stood in front of Wu Nuo half-crouched.
Wu Nuo then glanced at the headdress on his plate.
There were five pairs of headgear brought by the waiter on the plate, and Wuno was attracted by a pair of headgear at first sight.
It's not big, but it's small, it's exquisite, "That's it." Wu Nuo pointed to the headdress and said to the makeup artist.
"Okay, Miss Wu." The make-up artist then picked up the headdress that Wu Nuo had chosen and combed her hair.
The long hair, which was as smooth as seaweed, was combed to the end, and the delicate and small hairpin was stuck on, and Wu Nuo, who was plain-faced, was just like this, and it was incredibly beautiful.
"Come, Miss Wu, let's go to the dressing room to put on makeup." After combing Wu Nuo's hair, Wu Nuo was led by the makeup artist to an independent, princess-style dressing room.
"Eyebrows aren't tattooed, right?" The makeup artist noticed Wuno's eyebrows and asked her.
"I don't have a tattoo on my eyebrows." Wu Nuo replied to the makeup artist.
"Then your skin is in such good condition, I'll just put on a light makeup for you, heavy makeup doesn't seem to suit you, how about it?" The makeup artist is asking Wu Nuo's opinion every step of the way, giving each customer the best consumer experience.
"Well, I can do it, you can watch it." Wu Nuo said.
After that, the makeup artist began to make a difference on Wu Nuo's face, and the eyebrows, base makeup and nose shadow were only slightly retouched, adding a little more color to the original delicacy.
"Oh my God, it's so beautiful, God really gave you a good skin." The makeup artist looked at Wu Nuo, who had finished putting on makeup, and couldn't help but praise.
"Now that the costume is all done, I'll take you to choose a dress now."
The makeup artist couldn't help but look at Wu Nuo twice, and then took her to the clothing room to choose a dress.
Outside the makeup club.
"Mr. Fei." The hostess outside the door bowed to Fei Yanchuan very respectfully.
After Fei Yanchuan cleaned up, he immediately asked the driver to take him to the makeup club to pick up Wu Nuo.
"Where's Wunuo?" Fei Yanchuan came to the hall and didn't find Wu Nuo's figure, so he asked the makeup artist next to him.
"Miss Wu has gone to change her dress, and she will be here in a moment." Makeup artist said.
After listening to the makeup artist's words, Fei Yanchuan immediately walked to the sofa outside the fitting room in the clothing room, sat and waited.
After a while, the makeup artist opened the door of the fitting room, and Wu Nuo walked from inside.
Fei Yanchuanchuan looked up and saw Wu Nuo, and the movements in his hands suddenly paused.
Wu Nuo's long curly hair like seaweed was draped over her shoulders, the small and delicate hairpin was pinned to add a sense of playfulness to her head, and the mopping lotus dress at the ankles revealed her white arms, which looked even more white and shiny under the light.
"Now that we're ready, let's go." Wu Nuo was a little unaccustomed to Fei Yanchuan's fiery gaze, and he also regretted obeying the makeup artist's arrangement and dressing up so brightly.
"Well, I'll take you to the prom." Fei Yanchuan took out the two masks in his hand that only reached the bridge of his nose, one white and one black, like a pair of most loyal partners.
handed the mask to Wu Nuo, and then Fei Yanchuan took her into the car and came to the dance scene.
