Chapter 93 The Reason for the Panic
It was that time of three days again for the PK battle, and this time, at 19:07, Shu Hua's live stream lit up.
【? ? ? ? 】
"Mommy, I saw a fairy!"
【It's not pajamas anymore?!】
In the live stream, Shu Hua changed her lazy posture from sitting on the sofa and stood up in the center of the camera.
She wore a misty blue haute couture gown with a light tulle skirt adorned with subtle silver threads that shimmered under the specially adjusted lighting, exuding an ethereal beauty without appearing ostentatious.
The neckline features a simple square design, revealing her delicate collarbone. The smooth and beautiful lines accentuate her graceful shoulder and neck lines. The waist is cinched, perfectly outlining her slender waist and making her figure even more graceful.
The skirt hemline was a little below the knee, with an irregular cut, slightly shorter on one side, revealing a section of her fair and slender calves. The lines were smooth, and her skin was delicate. It complemented the misty blue dress, making her skin appear even whiter and her long legs look incredibly long.
The dress features light, flared sleeves embroidered with delicate pearls. As she raises her arms, the pearls sway gently, adding a touch of playfulness and dynamism. This balances the cool, ethereal quality of the misty blue color, creating a look that is both sophisticated and elegant like a haute couture gown, yet also youthful and charming. It perfectly complements her lovely yet slightly aloof temperament.
A fairy in misty blue has descended to earth! Did she steal moonlight from her dress?
[A stunning collarbone! I could drool over those lines all day!]
[That waist? From now on, the little one is forbidden from wearing those loose pajamas, what a waste!!!]
[The pearl cuffs are so tempting! I want the same style! Even though I can't afford haute couture!]
[Stunning legs indeed! These proportions... are they photoshopped? I don't believe it!]
[Give the lighting technician a bonus! This lighting is amazing, the artist even has their own background music!]
Mom, I'm in love again!
Although I'm not used to wearing this kind of formal dress often, I've already worn it, and it really does look beautiful.
Shu Hua was quite satisfied, having finished showing off the beautiful little dress.
Shu Hua then walked closer to the camera. Once she got close, she suddenly smiled playfully, her signature cat-like eyes curving into crescents, making her look as lively as if she had stepped out of a fairy tale.
"Hehe, aren't you surprised?"
This is the one that He Shao chose when we went shopping last time.
Aren't the styles quite different?
I went through a lot of trouble today to wear this outfit; I even put on makeup.
Look at this.
As she spoke, Shu Hua's entire face was almost right in front of the camera, and she kept turning left and right.
The point is to show her face from multiple angles, even though it took her an hour to put on makeup today.
Since you've worked so hard, you should definitely show it off properly.
Shu Hua focused on showcasing the eye makeup that took the longest to apply.
The eyeliner is meticulously drawn with a dark blue eyeliner pencil, extending outwards and upwards from the inner corner of the eye to form a smooth cat-eye arc, with the end slightly upturned, giving it a lively yet slightly wild feel.
The eyeshadow features a gradient design: a light silver-gray base is applied to the inner corner of the eye, blending outwards to a misty blue, with tiny glitter particles in the middle, resembling the subtle silver thread pattern on a gown.
A light blue pearlescent shimmer is swept across the lower eyelids, echoing the pearls on the flared cuffs.
When she blinked, the sequins and pearls shimmered with her movements, adding a touch of playfulness and balancing the coolness of the misty blue.
Her eyelashes were perfectly separated and curled, making her cat-like eyes appear even deeper and more three-dimensional in close-ups. When she had a cold expression, she had an air of mystery, but at this moment, her eyes were smiling, showing her cuteness and liveliness.
[Aaaaaaah! Close-up attack! Is this beauty even real?!]
[This eye makeup is killer! That blue eyeliner is like a seductive rope! I'm doomed!]
[The sequins are sparkling! My eyes! My heart! Help!]
[Those eyelashes are amazing! Are they built-in little fans? They're so fluttery!]
[Aaaaaah, those eyes! They're like a cat's eyes! Makeup artist, give me a bonus! Add some freeze-dried food!]
[Young Master He has impeccable taste! This dress is practically tailor-made for Hua Zai!]
[Normally, she's a languid beauty in her pajamas, but today, in haute couture, she's a queen of luxury! My little rascal, how many more surprises do you have in store for me?!]
[My mom asked me why I was kneeling while watching the live stream! I was worshipping the ultimate in good looks!]
[Young Master He! I'll choose! Multiple choices! I love watching!]
[This close-up shot is a feast for those who appreciate good looks! I'm going to devour it!]
[I've worn out my screenshot button! Every frame is wallpaper material!]
That concludes the presentation of today's hard-earned results.
Shu Hua read the comments and thought, "Not bad, not bad. It was worth all my hard work."
She nodded proudly, then returned to her familiar sofa and sat down.
The originally ethereal haute couture gown suddenly seemed to become more down-to-earth.
[“Xianyun Yehe” gave away 10 “Carnival” (50000 Audio Coins) in the live stream “Wandering Dreamers Through the Painting Realm”]
[Idle Clouds and Wild Cranes: Not bad.]
[Black Cleaver Shard: Why are you dressed so formally today?]
Shu Hua saw Xie Xun's question, straightened her skirt, and then answered, "It was agreed beforehand that I would wear the clothes chosen by Young Master He."
Just then, He Shao asked me today when I was going to wear it.
He said I wouldn't be doing many more live-streamed PK battles, so I had to wear it during those battles.
Well, I figured I might as well do it now, since I was only going to wear this dress anyway.
But sometimes clothes really are weird.
When I wear it without makeup, something always feels a bit off.
Then, they hired a makeup artist to do their makeup.
Anyway, it was a lot of trouble, but fortunately the results were really good.
I hardly recognize myself anymore.
Just after Shu Hua finished answering Xie Xun's question, she saw the call invitation.
She felt that she had timed this perfectly.
"Oh, the PK call is here, I'll take it."
I don't know who the housekeeper contacted for me.
Before the words were even finished, the live stream screen instantly split into six parts.
Shu Hua quickly scanned the group, and only Tao Zhiming was someone she recognized.
Shu Hua was already used to seeing Tao Zhiming during the PK, and was even too lazy to be surprised.
After all, she plays high-level games, so there has to be a female lead, right?
Yeah, it's all because she plays at such a high level.
The remaining four people I didn't know were two men and two women.
One of them, named Moonlight Embraces Her, is a girl with a gentle and graceful temperament.
She wore a well-tailored light green modified cheongsam, her long hair loosely tied up and secured with a jade hairpin, with a few stray strands falling beside her cheeks.
Her features were exquisite, her skin was fair and delicate, and especially her almond-shaped eyes, which were clear and bright, with a gentle smile that made people feel good at first glance.
She seemed to be speaking softly to the camera, her posture elegant, like a classical lady in a painting.
Shu Hua: Elegant, so very elegant.
The other female anchor is named Yi Kou Ruan Tang (一口软糖), but she isn't as cute or sweet in appearance as her name suggests.
Her features are exquisite, but her makeup is even more exquisite; even someone like Shu Hua, who doesn't wear much makeup, can tell at a glance.
Moreover, I don't know if it's a coincidence.
The dress this girl is wearing today is actually quite similar to the one Shu drew, except it's sky blue.
The overall quality is slightly inferior, and it lacks that ethereal, shimmering charm.
But it's still very pretty, and it has a down-to-earth, everyday feel to it.
In comparison, although the texture is not as good as Shuhua's, it is more suitable for this occasion.
It also seems that Shu's drawing is a bit exaggerated.
Shu Hua only glanced at the other two male anchors briefly.
One of them is called Mint Soda, and he's probably the kind of handsome guy who's like a puppy.
The other one, called Gossip Radio, had an average appearance.
With Shu Hua's arrival, today's PK match is now complete.
The six people greeted each other.
Moonlight embraced her as she smiled at Shu Hua, "Hello, Hua Zai, you can call me Yueyue. I heard you sing very well, let's sing a duet together sometime."
"???" Shu Hua was enjoying the gentle voice of Yue Se Ru Huai, which was as warm as a spring breeze, but the content of the words was so... strange.
She gazed at the moonlight in her bosom for a few moments, still so elegant; it couldn't be sarcasm.
Moreover, judging from the way she greeted us, she must have been the person contacted by the housekeeper.
That wouldn't be meant to mock her, even though she probably has a high opinion of herself.
But the fact that they would use singing in a chorus as a form of punishment shows that they know they don't sing well.
Is this elegant lady dissatisfied with her ears?
Looking for some excitement?
Shu Hua: "Yueyue, do you want to add some excitement to your life?"
The moonlight embraced her unexpected reaction to Shu Hua. She paused for a moment, then chuckled softly, still elegant, "You could say that. I'm also a professional music student, and chords are alumni of our school."
I saw your chorus performance last time, and I was thinking of giving it a try.
"I see." Shu Hua suddenly realized. "Alright, next time we'll invite Xianyin along, and you can challenge her together."
So, they wanted to restore the reputation of music students. That makes sense.
Moonlight Embraces Her Arms nodded. "Okay."
[Hahahaha! Monthly Warrior!]
[The Challenge? Yueyue, are you sure it's a challenge to your music major and not a challenge to your survival limits?]
[Yueyue: Elegant, timeless (referring to gracefully jumping into a fire pit)]
[Yueyue! Run! That's the king of tone-deaf people, Huazai! Singing in the chorus is a punishment activity!]
[Xianyin: ??? Don't mention me! I'm still recovering from my work injury!]
[Alumni Magazine: Xianyin leaves alumni group overnight.jpg]
【"Add Some Excitement": This refers to using the song by Hua Zai to give a physical boost to a mundane life】
[Yueyue: I want to challenge my weakness!]
[So elegant! So incredibly elegant! (Referring to gracefully walking towards social death)]
[Yueyue, promise us you'll do a recovery livestream after the chorus, okay?]
With the choir in place, Moonlight Embrace, the organizer of this multi-person PK round, began the hosting process: "Now that everyone has met, let me explain our PK round today."
There are three rounds in total. The first-place player in each round gets 6 points, and the points decrease in each subsequent round.
In the first round, we'll use this random app to determine the PK rules.
The rules for each subsequent round are determined by the last player in the previous round.
Everyone here is a seasoned player, so you should all understand the rules; it's just a very standard set of rules.
1. A fine of 3456 yuan; 2. Medical expenses.
How was it?
This is a very normal way to play, and none of them had any objections.
As the moonlight enveloped me, I opened a random app. After a few seconds, the pointer landed on the Silent Leaderboard.
Upon seeing the result, the puppy-like Mint Soda spoke up, "Sister Yueyue, this random app must have been captivated by Sister Huahua's beauty."
This is one of my strong suits for drawing.
A piece of gummy candy chimed in, her tone exaggerated and full of surprise, "Yes, Sister Hua looks really beautiful today."
Is this dress haute couture?
I never expected that we have such influence that Sister Hua would bring out her haute couture.
I'm truly flattered.
The gossip radio host chimed in, a hint of confusion on his face, "High-end custom-made? How did you figure that out?"
"Her dress looks pretty much the same as yours, aren't they both blue?"
With a look of disgust, she said, "Shut up."
Peppermint Soda chuckled, "Brother Xian, if you ever get a girlfriend, don't ever say that, or you'll get beaten up."
Especially when they ask you which lipstick looks better.
The gossip radio station chuckled sheepishly, "I just think they're all pretty much the same."
The three of them suddenly started chatting, although they were mostly just talking nonsense.
[Hahaha, this is a chatterbox! You really understand what straight men are saying!]
[“They’re all pretty much the same” – A death sentence! Brother Xian is in danger!]
[I screenshotted Gummy Bear's disgusted face! It's definitely going to be a meme!]
[But Brother Xian was praising Ruantang's dress, saying it was like haute couture, so why was she being criticized?]
[Soda's younger brother's survival instincts are off the charts! This lesson is spot on!]
[Xian Ge: Blue dress, nothing wrong with it, right? What's wrong with it?]
[Soda: Trying to salvage the situation.jpg Xian Ge: Continuously disconnecting.jpg]
Doesn't anyone find it strange that Gummy Bear said she was flattered?
[+1, Huazai isn't a dedicated PK streamer, so dressing up like that would usually be seen as a way to impress fans, right? This girl named Ruantang has a rather large face.]
[Besides, what's so surprising about Hua Zai pulling out a haute couture item? The candy's words sound like she did it on purpose, which doesn't sit well with me.]
[Hahaha, this is such a classic, but the listening experience is terrible. The 'soft candy' was just complimenting the dress, okay? The fans are overthinking it.]
[Exactly, isn't it because you're jealous that haute couture doesn't look as good as our adorable girl in a regular dress?]
【I understand the fans upstairs have a bias, but if you say my drawing isn't good-looking, I still suggest you see an ophthalmologist.】
[That guy named Soda is talking weird, it sounds like he's implying that the artist cheated.]
[+1, and she even tried to get close to the artist, thankfully the artist ignored her.]
[Maybe they thought "Painting Sister" was really awful, because when I saw "Painting Boy" hear it, he completely lost his composure, hahaha.]
Shu Hua did think that the way the person called her "Soda" sounded a bit awful, but she felt more embarrassed than anything else.
She wasn't even that familiar with him, and for him to call her that...it was so cheesy, she really couldn't accept it.
Fortunately, someone quickly took over the conversation.
Shu Hua felt fortunate, otherwise she really wouldn't have wanted to reply, because replying would have been tacitly acknowledging the unpleasant name "Hua Hua Jie".
If I don't reply, it's like they're praising me, but that seems a bit impolite.
