The spring rain in Jiangnan is as fine and dense as needles; just moments ago the sky was clear and blue, but in the blink of an eye, dark clouds gathered and a light drizzle began to fall. With nothing to do in the city, Jiang Huaiyu decided to visit his old friend Cao Shuwan in Wusu Ancient Town.
"Master, you've come at the perfect time."
Cao Shuwan was at home developing a brand new rouge and face powder. As soon as she saw Jiang Huaiyu, she warmly invited her to sit down. "Come on, help me try out this new rouge."
Jiang Huaiyu took the exquisite porcelain jar from the table, gently dipped her jade-like finger in it, and lightly rubbed it on the back of her hand.

"This is truly a fine product," she exclaimed, her eyes lighting up.

Cao Shuwan said with a smile, "Most of the rouges on the market are brightly colored, which are eye-catching but lack innovation. I always believe that a true beauty, like the lady in the house, can outshine all others even without makeup.

In this way, it can not only highlight the charm of the facial features, but also make people feel a natural beauty without makeup."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Huaiyu smiled and nodded in praise: "Your idea is truly ingenious. This rouge is also extremely well-made. Miss Cao, have you given it a name?"
