Chapter 40 Transformation
Chapter 40 Transformation
Shen Yu and Lan Ming went outside the Auction House and found two women standing, chatting with each other. Both have a beautiful smile on their faces which attracted many gazes from the people.
Although one of them was wearing a half mask on her face, it didn't decrease her beauty in any way. In fact, she seemed even more beautiful with that mysterious aura around her.
Combined with her short black hair and the dark black dress she wore, she was the like the beautiful moon in starless night.
The other one was equally beautiful if not more. Shen Yu just stood there in daze as he looked at the complete transformation of Xiao Lan. She was already beautiful previously but now that beauty had gone to next level.
Ying Yue had really did her best in changing Xiao Lan and in the short time they were away, Xiao Lan had become a new person from the outside. Xiao Lan was a tall woman with a pale skin tone. Her eyes were purple, fading into a magenta tone with white pupils and her long hair were a bright red, pinned into a high bun.
Xiao Lan's attire was a red-black modified qipao with gold and dull blue accents. Her dress had side slits and an opening in the center of her chest and abdomen, revealing a dark sleeveless bodysuit underneath. She complemented her outfit with long black gloves with golden details and red palms, and a singular black earring. As for footwear, she opted for black heels with a golden platform and red trim.
All in all, Xiao Lan was now a kingdom toppling beauty and it was no wonder that she was attracting so many eyes. But it looked like both of them didn't care about the looks they were receiving and were happily chatting with each other.
Shen Yu shook his head with a smile on his face and walked forward with Lan Ming. Ying Yue instantly noticed Shen Yu and smiled at him. "So, how was the shopping?"
Shen Yu asked, after thinking for a few moments what should he ask. He was still awkward around people but tried his best in not showing it. That's why he didn't even know what to say when he went closer to them.
"Hehe, Master, you can see for yourself."
Ying Yue giggled and went behind Xiao Lan who smiled at Shen Yu and bowed. She said in a voice that showed how happy she was.
"Thanks for saving me, Master Shen."
Shen Yu waved his hand and replied.
"You don't need to worry about that. You're free from now on. Also, you look absolutely stunning. I can see Yue'er did her best."
"Yes, Senior Sister helped me pick all of this."
Xiao Lan smiled, happy with Shen Yu's compliment. Even she was surprised by her beauty when she had dressed up. In all of her second life, she never had the time too take care of herself, not was she in a situation for doing that. "Yes, but there is something missing. You're too thin and look so weak. You'll have to eat a lot of food to gain some weight."
Shen Yu said looking at her malnourished body. However, then he realised what he said and coughed.
"I mean, you still beautiful now but having a good body will be helpful for you later on."
Xiao Lan chuckled, noticing the slight redness on Shen Yu's cheeks.
'He is really as Senior Sister said. So innocent, so kind. I have to do my best to take care of him.'
"Are you planning to have the whole talk here, Master Shen?"
Lan Ming pouted and asked. She looked at the both women's young aura and beauty and felt jealous. She looked down at herself and felt a little better. After all, she still the best assets.
Shen Yu looked at her and thought.
'Cute!'
"Alright, let's go. We'll discuss everything later."
Shen Yu then headed towards Lan Ming's Inn along with the three beauties which made him a target of envious gazes. If looks could kill, he would have certainly died quite a lot of times.
However, no one disturbed them because of Lan Ming. She was famous in the town and everyone knew she wasn't a person to mess with so no one bothered them.
Soon, they reached a three stories tall structure which was coloured in beautiful red and radiated a majestic aura. On the top of the inn, a plaque hung reading 'Lan Inn!'
"That restaurant is actually of Wind Flower Sect and I only look over it but this is mine. I completely own it."
Lan Ming happily explained about the inn to them as they entered it. There weren't many people inside aside from the receptionists. One of the receptionist came forward when she saw Lan Ming and welcomed her. Lan nodded and said.
"Bring Keys to the Three rooms in top floor."
The receptionist was surprised hearing that but did as Lan Ming ordered. She stole some glances as she looked at the trio. The top floor only had four rooms and all of them were the epitome of luxury. Not just anyone could afford them and that's why they remained empty most of the time. However, now they were going to filled completely.
She soon came back and handed three keys to Lan Ming and backed away. Lan Ming smiled and led the trio to the the top floor via stairs. Shen Yu observed the inn and nodded in appreciation. The Inn was really good and comfortable. Even better was the silence because of the noise cancelling formations.
"There are only four rooms here on top floor and each of us will be occupying one. Since it's night already, how about we all rest and talk in the morning or do you want to discuss now?"
Lan Ming asked, as she gave the keys to the trio. Shen Yu took the key and replied.
"No, it's fine. I'm also tired so it's best if we discuss tomorrow."
Ying Yue and Xiao Lan nodded in understanding and bid farewell to Shen Yu. Since he was tired, they wouldn't do anything.
Lan Ming bowed and also left to her room, leaving only Shen Yu behind. For some reason, Shen Yu didn't like this silence anymore as it reminded him of his previous life. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
