Chapter 121 - 123: Su Luoluo Became Beautiful (Part 1)
Chapter 121: Chapter 123: Su Luoluo Became Beautiful (Part 1)
Of the several gifts, there were many that Su Luoluo liked. If she were forced to pick a favorite, she really couldn’t choose one right off the bat.
But if asked which she disliked the most, the answer was obvious: the one from the man standing before her.
’He meant well, but who would actually like a skirt made of such ugly feathers?!’
However, Su Luoluo could only complain about this silently in her heart. She was afraid that saying it to his face would crush Mo Xuan’s confidence and, in turn, affect her mission to win him over.
She had no idea who designed this Moon God Festival, forcing beastmen to give gifts to females, and then making the female choose her favorite gift and go on a date with the giver.
Wasn’t this a surefire way to offend the other beastmen?
Remembering what Cai Xia had said before, Su Luoluo decided it was best not to choose for now.
The Moon God Festival lasted for three days, so she could use that time to think of a better solution.
With this in mind, Su Luoluo lifted her gaze to glance at Mo Xuan. "What’s the rush? There are still two days left, aren’t there? I need to look a little more. I haven’t even tried some of these things on."
Just like that, the men’s eager anticipation was dampened by Su Luoluo’s retort, forcing them to rein in their excitement.
Mo Xuan, however, didn’t think she was wrong. Su Luoluo hadn’t tried on his feather skirt yet, so of course, she couldn’t see that his gift was the best.
He nodded in agreement. "Then take your time looking. Just let us know when you’ve decided."
His expression was one of absolute certainty, as if he had already won. Su Luoluo glanced at him and quickly looked away.
’Is this Mo Xuan a little too narcissistic?’
’Are all leopards like this?’
Luan Ting heard this and smiled. "There’s no need to rush. You still have two days, Luoluo. You can take your time choosing."
When he had given her the shoes just now, he could tell Su Luoluo was very pleased with them.
Besides, he hadn’t given Su Luoluo the shoes just because of the Moon God Festival. He had seen that the ones she was wearing were completely worn out and needed to be replaced.
He had made all her previous shoes, so he knew Su Luoluo’s shoe size by heart.
But she had lost a lot of weight now, and he wasn’t sure if her feet had gotten smaller too. If they had, he would have to adjust the length and width of the shoes.
Fu Feng had no objections either, confident as he was in the bracelet he had made.
Nantu cared even less. He had given her the Luminous Pearl purely for a bite to eat, and also because he wanted a closer look at some of Su Luoluo’s "high-tech" things.
As for Xiao Ye, he was secretly a little disappointed. He hadn’t expected Su Luoluo to get away with it again.
He knew very well that Su Luoluo was just saying this to buy more time to come up with an excuse.
But you can run, you can’t hide. The festival was only three days long. When time was up, how would Su Luoluo escape then?
Xi Yi had always been here just for the entertainment, so he was in even less of a hurry.
Compared to whether or not Su Luoluo chose him, he was more interested in what kind of surprise she would pull this time.
He had been amazed time and again by Su Luoluo’s unconventional ideas. The Beast World Continent was so boring, but after meeting Su Luoluo, he felt things had gotten interesting again.
The men were all lost in their own thoughts, but Su Luoluo paid them no mind. After speaking, she clapped her hands. "Since you were all so eager to wash the dishes earlier, you can wash them today!"
With that, she swaggered off.
The remaining beastmen looked at each other, hardly believing that Su Luoluo had just ordered them around like that.
She was getting more and more audacious, but strangely, they didn’t find anything wrong with it.
If this had been a few months ago, they would have thought Su Luoluo was utterly shameless. But now, they were willingly wrapped around her finger.
After leaving the outdoor kitchen, Su Luoluo went into her little hut.
After a busy morning processing salt and then dealing with the men, Su Luoluo felt a bit tired. She lay down, ready to rest, when the system suddenly chimed.
[Ding! Host, please participate in the Moon God Festival’s "Most Beautiful Female" contest. Win the title of Most Beautiful Female to receive a surprise gift package.]
Su Luoluo, who had just lain down, shot up the moment she heard this.
"System, did I hear that right? You want me to enter the ’Most Beautiful Female’ contest? Do you really think I can win first place with my plain, unremarkable features?"
"No way. I’m not going just to make a fool of myself."
Even though she had lost a lot of weight, her face was still ugly.
Entering a beauty contest with an ugly face—wasn’t that just asking to be laughed at?
Someone like Su Nuannuan was the right type to enter the "Most Beautiful Female" contest. Why should she get mixed up in all that fuss?
"Host, the System is confident that you can do it. Besides, there’s a surprise gift package waiting for you."
"A surprise gift package? It’s not going to be something like a shovel, is it? I’m not interested."
Although she had recently succeeded in winning over Mo Xuan, Luan Ting, and Xiao Ye, to be honest, the rewards the system had given her were never what she wanted.
They were all superpowers she had no use for, and she had no idea what good they were.
As for the Water Ability she’d always wanted, the system was being stingy and refused to upgrade it for her no matter what.
Of course, Su Luoluo was also probing with her words, trying to find out what exactly was in this mysterious gift package.
A superpower upgrade might not be very useful to her right now, but it could come in handy someday.
Seeing Su Luoluo’s lack of enthusiasm, the system quickly tried another tack: "Host, don’t you want information about Xi Yi?"
Hearing this, Su Luoluo was instantly interested. "Are you saying that if I win the ’Most Beautiful Female’ title, I’ll be able to find out if Xi Yi is a capture target?"
"Host, my data shows that the surprise gift package is related to Xi Yi."
For Su Luoluo, being able to find out whether Xi Yi was a capture target was extremely important.
Hearing this news, her exhaustion vanished, and she was instantly energized.
It seemed she would have to find a way to win first place in this "Most Beautiful Female" contest after all.
But with her current looks, how could she possibly stage a comeback and take first place?
The fastest and most direct way to improve her features in a short amount of time was makeup.
But she didn’t have any cosmetics, and this primitive society didn’t have such things either.
If she wanted to wear makeup, it looked like she would have to make a set of cosmetics herself.
Su Luoluo remembered that when she had successfully won over Mo Xuan, her Gold Element Superpower had been upgraded to the Second Level.
A Second Level Gold Element Superpower could detect metals and minerals.
At the time, she had thought that discovering metals and minerals was useless in a primitive society that didn’t even have paper or cloth.
But now, she felt it could be put to good use.
The main ingredients of eyeshadow and liquid foundation were talcum powder and mica. She could grind pearls into powder and mix the three together to make a simple foundation and eyeshadow.
Using the detection function of her Gold Element Superpower, she could find these minerals with ease.
Besides, using water as a mirror every day was inconvenient, and the reflection wasn’t very clear.
She would also need to make a mirror.
That would make applying makeup much more convenient.
