"Your Majesty, you may not know this, but recently the Underworld has launched a food delivery service that can connect the living and the dead, bringing things from the human world to the Underworld. The seafood hot pot that His Majesty enjoyed last time was delivered from the human world. This time, I placed an order with the Underworld Bureau to have a delivery person purchase acne cream and send it over. It should arrive soon."
Before the words were finished, a ghost messenger rushed over to report: "Your Majesty, there's a deliveryman outside the palace. He says he's here to deliver acne cream."
Xiao Cui's eyes lit up: "Your Majesty, the deliveryman has brought the acne cream."
Consort Liu was overjoyed and immediately ordered, "Let the deliveryman in."
Soon, Chu Yu entered the main hall carrying a bag.
Xiao Cui quickly went to greet him: "I placed the order with the Underworld Group. Did you bring the acne cream?"
Chu Yu nodded and handed over the bag: "There are two bottles of acne cream inside. I checked online and it's the most effective acne cream right now. I just don't know if it will work for you ghosts."
Xiao Cui wasn't sure either, so she could only say, "Let's give it a try first."
She took out a bottle of acne cream and handed it to Liu Fei. Liu Fei took it, carefully read the instructions, and after confirming that it was an acne cream from the human world, she unscrewed the cap, squeezed out some cream, and applied it to her face.
The ointment felt cool and refreshing after being applied, which reduced the pain from the acne. Her eyes lit up: "It really works! The acne doesn't hurt as much anymore."
Xiao Cui and the other maids were overjoyed; the acne cream was working, and they wouldn't have to be punished.
Chu Yu was somewhat surprised that acne cream used by humans could actually work on ghosts?
She looked at Consort Liu, who had no yin or demonic aura; she was actually a human.
Chu Yu exclaimed in surprise: "Consort Liu is actually human!"
Xiao Cui came to her side and explained, "You don't know this, but our Consort Liu is from 500 years ago. When our king traveled to the human world, he fell in love with her at first sight, gave her the elixir of immortality, and brought her back to Youdu City. That's why our Consort Liu has an immortal constitution."
Chu Yu understood: "I see. No wonder your acne cream didn't work for her, because their constitutions are different."
Xiao Cui shook her head and said in puzzlement, "When Her Majesty had smallpox before, the medicine prescribed by the Ghost Doctor worked, but it didn't work this time. It's really strange."
Chu Yu thought of something and suggested, "Could you bring me your acne cream to take a look?"
She had previously prescribed acne medication for others and knew a little about it.
Xiao Cui stepped forward to ask Consort Liu for permission, and Consort Liu nodded, instructing her to give the ointment she had used earlier to Chu Yu.
Chu Yu opened the bottle of ointment. The ointment was dark in color and had a strong fragrance, but it also had a slightly pungent smell.
After examining it carefully, she immediately guessed what it was and said to Liu Fei, "This acne cream contains a small amount of chili powder, which greatly reduces the effectiveness of the cream and also irritates the skin, causing more acne."
Upon hearing this, Consort Liu and her maids were all shocked.
Consort Liu slammed her hand on the table and shouted angrily, "Who put chili powder in my ointment?"
Xiao Cui and her maid were so frightened that they quickly knelt down and denied it: "Your Highness, it wasn't us who did it."
Consort Liu glanced at them coldly and said through gritted teeth, "I know you don't have the guts. It was probably done by that vile woman, Consort Yu. How despicable! I'm going to settle accounts with her."
She stood up, about to rush out, when Xiao Cui quickly stepped forward to stop her and advised, "Your Highness, if we go to Consort Yu now without any evidence, we will only suffer losses. She might even falsely accuse you to the King, and then things will become difficult."
Consort Liu thought about it again and realized that it made sense. She angrily declared, "Since there is no evidence, you lot should go and find some for me right now."
The maids immediately dispersed to search for evidence.
Seeing this, Chu Yu complained, "The Ghost King's harem isn't peaceful either." However, this had nothing to do with her; she was just there to deliver takeout.
With the delivery complete, the order should be fulfilled. She said to Consort Liu, "Consort Liu, now that we have received the goods, let's make the payment first and complete the order."
Consort Liu didn't answer, but asked, "If I apply this acne cream, will all the pimples on my face disappear by tomorrow?"
Chu Yu shook her head: "Even if this acne cream is very effective, the acne won't all disappear by tomorrow."
Consort Liu panicked: "I have a performance at the Ghost King's birthday banquet tomorrow. If my pimples don't go away, how can I go on stage?"
Chu Yu suggested, "You can wear makeup to cover up the pimples on your face."
Liu Fei shook her head helplessly: "No, the makeup products here can't cover up my pimples."
She opened the drawer, inside were some rouge and face powder, which looked like they were used in ancient times.
The city of Youdu is isolated from the human world, and the city still uses products and lifestyles from ancient times.
Chu Yu's eyes lit up as she thought of something, and she asked, "When I went to buy acne cream, the salesperson gave me a bottle of concealer. This concealer can cover up the pimples on my face. Do you need it?"
Consort Liu nodded excitedly: "Yes, yes, yes, hurry up and bring it over to try it out."
Chu Yu took a bottle of concealer from the trunk of the electric scooter and returned to hand it to Liu Fei.
She taught Consort Liu how to use it. Consort Liu tried it and found that it worked very well. She was overjoyed and said, "This thing is so useful. With it, I'm not afraid of acne anymore."
Chu Yu breathed a sigh of relief; the matter was finally resolved.
Consort Liu was in a great mood and had someone bring her a box of gold: "Is this box of gold enough to pay?"
Chu Yu opened the box, inside were 30 gold bars, each weighing approximately 100 grams.
