She swallowed hard and said stubbornly, "With you here, there's nothing wrong with what I'm wearing."

Gu Sinian tugged at her old lady-like outfit with utter disdain.

"It's too ugly and too old-fashioned, it has no aesthetic appeal at all."

Su Ying was speechless. "I'm an old lady now, what do I need beauty for? Being ugly isn't a must."

Gu Sinian looked helpless. "Are you determined to be my mother?"

Su Ying shook her clothes, looking guilty. Gu Sinian seemed angry.

"No, not at all. Doesn't my current situation fit the profile of a black market buyer?"

"Suitable my ass! Hurry up and change my clothes and put on some appropriate makeup."

Gu Si said irritably, "I've never seen a son take his mother to the black market to buy things. Isn't this a subtle way of telling others that there's something wrong with us, mother and son?"

"Go and change into some suitable clothes. I've been a scout for many years, so I still have some analytical skills."

"With me here, I will guarantee your safety 100%. When you are alone, you can do whatever you want without me caring, because you have space, and escaping will be an advantage for you."

"But it won't be so easy for the two of us to escape. I need to make sure that we both get away unscathed."

As Su Ying listened to Gu Sinian's logical analysis, she finally understood how she had been targeted the previous times.

If it weren't for the existence of this space, she would have lost her life long ago. How many of those who frequent the black market are truly kind-hearted? They risk their lives, living one day at a time.

Reluctantly, she went into the room and changed into another outfit. For some reason, the new outfit matched Gu Sinian's perfectly.

Gu Sinian looked at Su Ying's new outfit and smiled with satisfaction. "This outfit is more like it. This is more like it. What would it look like if you dressed up like an old lady? Don't treat everyone like fools."

"I've never seen an old lady with such a childish voice as you. From now on, when you're disguising yourself, you have to be realistic, understand?"

Su Ying nodded. With the scouts guiding her, it would be difficult for her not to improve.

"Okay. I'll be more careful next time."

"But your makeup skills are pretty good, it looks quite realistic. Who did you learn this from?"

Su Ying smiled awkwardly; she couldn't very well say that she learned it from him more than ten years later.

She learned some skills from him and others from makeup artists on TV. Combining the two has led to her current makeup skills.

"Self-taught".

Gu Sinian nodded without a doubt, after all, the little girl had loved drawing since she was a child, and her drawings were quite realistic.

Makeup involves applying paint to the face, and in principle, it's not much different from painting.

He didn't doubt it too much, "Teach me this amazing makeup technique next time too."

"No problem. I'll teach you anything you want to learn."

If the young girl's makeup skills become widespread, she could play a significant role in the military.

Unfortunately, he was demoted, and whether he can return to the army is still unknown.
