Chapter 270 With You
The president will play the queen?
Chen Xiao'er took a deep breath. "Looks-wise, she's quite suitable." Senior Lin Yi has a cool and aloof temperament, so no one would say anything if she played the queen.
The problem lies with the other two main characters.
Zero is actually okay; when she plays the princess, she seems much more approachable than the queen simply by smiling. The fact that the queen and princess are sisters, both of whom are tall, cool beauties, makes sense.
But it would be too outrageous for me to play the god of love!
Chen Xiao'er imagined herself playing the god of love.
A young woman in a moon-white robe descended from the sky on a wire, dancing and gesturing. "Humble human, I will teach you the power of the gods and the strength of true love."
Woo. She couldn't help shaking her shoulders.
This kind of scene that requires dancing and talking in the sky might sound a bit like an immortal if the president or Zero were to perform it, but if I were to perform it, it would just be like the magical middle school syndrome.
The audience will definitely be unable to resist picking up their phones, and then put a double ponytail on the photo and secretly write: "I will destroy you on behalf of love~"
She vaguely imagined that Ling had picked up the comb again and began to comb her hair slowly.
The original classic-style bun was untied, combed out bit by bit, and re-combed into the silky, hanging hair of Cupid.
The God of Love in the Red Star legend has many images, some with long straight hair and some with long curly hair, but no matter which God of Love it is, his hair is platinum or light gold.
Chen Xiao'er quickly shook her head: "Wait a minute, I need to wear a wig later."
"Why do you need a wig?" Zero asked in surprise. "In mythology, the Goddess of Love is also the Goddess of Beauty. Your hair is much more beautiful than a wig."
Chen Xiao'er's face turned red, and she inexplicably recalled the allusion of "My wife loves me" in an ancient text.
In the hardcover edition of "The Sleeping Queen", the long silver hair of the goddess of love flowing to the ground is like moonlight.
That visual effect alone instantly eclipsed her long, shoulder-length black hair; there was no comparison. Zero could actually say, "You're more beautiful" without batting an eyelid, his eccentricity akin to the equator crossing the Arctic Circle.
She was too embarrassed to argue, so she stammered, "Because Cupid has light hair."
Ling frowned slightly, but before she could say anything, the president stood up and took the wig off the shelf.
Lin Yi stuffed the wig into the box and said, "That's not necessarily true. Gods can certainly have black hair."
Chen Xiao'er wanted to say "we need to cater to the audience's stereotypes", but then she changed her mind: even the princess was almost played by Xu She, so a god of love with long black hair didn't seem to be a big deal.
The remaining issue is height.
The story doesn't explain how much taller the god of love is than the princess, after all, he floats in the sky all day long.
But from the perspective of legend, the status of gods is far higher than that of humans, so the god of love must be higher than the princess.
Moreover, in the last scene of the play, Cupid needs to stand side by side with the princess. If Cupid can only touch the princess's shoulders at that time, wouldn't the visual effect be not very good?
While she was daydreaming, Lin Yi placed a mirror on the table next to her.
Chen Xiao'er turned her face to the side, and the mirror just reflected her chest. The simple golden rose frame outlined the girl's bust like a picture frame.
The smooth mirror surface reflected a beautiful face. Her black hair was combed and hung neatly on her shoulders.
Chen Xiao'er's skin color is naturally fair with a rosy glow. After applying a thin layer of concealer, she only needs to add a little bit of blush, which will make her look more energetic under the light.
Ling's facial features and skin are so good that you've never seen her sitting in front of a mirror putting on makeup.
But today, when she was holding the makeup tools to help someone put on makeup, her hands were as steady as if she were an art student holding a common paintbrush.
Chen Xiao'er originally thought that she would see a perfect mask drawn in the mirror, but when Ling put down the pen, her overall facial features had not changed much, only her eyes seemed a little bigger against the backdrop of eyeliner and eyeshadow.
The final effect is actually quite good.
Chen Xiao'er sat in front of the mirror, looking left and right, and felt that Zero had been optimized based on his original appearance.
The biggest problem is actually temperament.
Humans are visual animals, and the actor who plays the god of love has such a childish face that it is really hard to convince everyone that he is a majestic god who will punish humans cruelly.
rustle.
While she was looking at the mirror, Ling and Lin Yi deftly unbuttoned the pearl buttons and the zipper hidden inside, and gently took off the queen's dress.
"Wait, this dress doesn't fit you." Chen Xiao'er turned around and saw Lin Yi walking towards the big wardrobe in the corner.
The president placed one hand on the closet door, turned around and said calmly, "It's okay. Look carefully. The clothes of the God of Love, the Queen, and the Princess are actually all classical long dresses of similar styles. Even if they are not exactly the same, similar costumes can be used as substitutes."
is that so?
Lin Yi nodded confidently and opened the cabinet door in front of her.
Chen Xiao'er's eyes blurred, and before her eyes appeared a dazzling white light, like something out of a gourmet anime. The light vanished in the blink of an eye, leaving behind only a closet full of traditional dresses.
Chen Xiao'er couldn't help but straighten her back, but her right foot suddenly left the ground.
It turned out that Ling was half squatting on the ground, holding her calves and gently taking off the crystal shoes.
Clang.
This soft crystal shoe fell to the ground and for some reason made a crisp sound, as if a real crystal ball fell to the ground.
Chen Xiao'er didn't notice the fallen crystal shoe because Ling took out a pair of silver-white embroidered silk shoes from under the chair.
"Should I wear high heels?" Chen Xiao'er's voice was not firm. Ling had already held her toes and gently pushed them into the silk shoes.
"No, this pair is more suitable." When Ling looked up and smiled, Lin Yi also rolled up a moon-white long skirt, shook it open and draped it over her side armpit.
Yes, it is draped over the body.
This skirt is not put on from the head or through the legs, but wrapped around the sides, forming a long skirt.
Wearing it this way does not make the skirt look bloated. When the light-colored embroidered shawl covers the collarbone like moonlight, the girl in the mirror also becomes a little more gentle and mysterious.
Chen Xiao'er smiled sweetly at the mirror.
The girl in the mirror still has a very different temperament from the goddess of love in The Sleeping Queen, but it is more in line with the world belonging to the blue planet in her heart.
If the legendary goddess of love was such a gentle girl...if it were me, I would never let such a cruel story happen.
Ding~ding~
Two bells rang from the rooftop. The sound was very soft, and it felt like just two short knocks.
Lin Yi stood up straight and quickly picked out a skirt from the closet to change into.
The president didn't modify her makeup, and her jewelry was even more perfunctory, with only a gold necklace and two earrings. However, her appearance was so good that even a piece of sheet could make her look like a queen.
"I'm going to interact with the audience first. You can rest for a while." Lin Yi put on her long dress, picked up the simple crown on the table and put it on her head.
After she finished speaking, she walked out of the lounge quickly, and the tail of her skirt brought up a gust of wind.
Ta-da, ta-da-da.
The footsteps in the corridor soon died away, and the lounge became even quieter.
Chen Xiao'er turned her face to the side, and a streak of silver hair appeared on the edge of the mirror.
Her breathing became rapid again: since she entered the door, Zero had been acting very gentle, as if he didn't mind anything.
Zero didn't seem to want to break this peaceful atmosphere. If she didn't say anything to spoil the mood, she could continue to enjoy Zero's tenderness until the moment she left.
"Huh..." Chen Xiao'er took a deep breath. She could certainly wait until she was in the car to call Ling or even send a text message to officially "break up" and avoid a heated argument, but she wasn't going to do that!
The silk shoes on her feet were very soft, but she stood on tiptoe and turned her body like a little mermaid, then said clearly: "Zero, I'm ready to leave school."
There was silence in my ears.
Yeah, what else can I say at a time like this? Chen Xiao'er smiled bitterly in her heart. If another classmate told me she wanted to drop out of school, I would definitely think she was having a mental breakdown.
He doesn't want to go to the best university in the country, but insists on running away to become a member of society. He would rather be tied to a pillar in the dormitory and not allowed to leave.
"good."
"......Huh?" Chen Xiao'er raised her head in surprise, her eyes flashing.
She waited for Zero to argue or mock her, or for a long, heartfelt chat, but after a few seconds, Zero just said calmly, "I'll go with you."
Chen Xiao'er's lips touched each other, and her front teeth left a little mark on her lower lip.
"No, you know I'm not just leaving school... I might get expelled! How can you leave with me?!"
"Because I want to go with you." Zero's expression did not change at all.
Chen Xiao'er felt itchy all over her body and was about to go crazy.
Are you kidding me? You'll graduate next year, right? What sin did I commit to take you with me?
"No! If you drop out now, your future life will become more difficult!" She originally wanted to destroy it, but then she thought about how for someone as amazing as Zero, academic qualifications were just an important certificate, and Zero could always spend time to get it back.
But your time is so precious, how can you waste it like this?
"Difficult?" Ling repeated, bewildered. This time, the smile on her face was a bit sarcastic: "Xiao Ai, the most difficult thing I can think of is not being by your side."
She did not give her lover any chance to refuse. She stretched out her hands and hugged the moon-white shawl tightly, squeezing out a rustling sound.
"Nothing can separate us, not death nor time."
......
The pink-haired man was running in front, and Lin Lang was chasing him from behind, shouting, "Dad... Dad, wait for me for a moment, Dad."
"There's no time." Uncle Wolf said without turning his head, "Those guys are quite skilled. They should have already debugged the machine and are ready to start at any moment."
"Machine? How did the machine outside get in..."
"They will die in this place." Uncle Wolf had a stern face. He couldn't tell the real name of the so-called "My Lord", but that thing must have infiltrated the human soul front.
The machine that could trap Chen Xiao'er or the Newborn Snake was designed to be large and heavy, taking into account their capabilities. Once assembled, it was impossible to move it by manpower alone.
He previously thought that his partner was the Devouring Snake Cult, and that the Devouring Snake would help "open the door" in the middle of the power ceremony.
Now it seems that the god behind this is "that one". He has already planned the church's ritual process and will "help" the people on the human soul front to start the machine at the critical moment.
Uncle Wolf ran faster and faster. According to his experience, tower-type anomalies often have their core locations located at the top of the tower. Furthermore, the Ritual of Power was a ritual of ascension, so the Church's capabilities should be unable to tamper with the core location.
But they ran for a long time following the guidance of the red words, but still couldn't find the stairs leading up.
Uncle Wolf ran to the next corner and asked in a deep voice, "Excuse me, could you help me open a door that leads directly to the core?"
Sorry, I can't do that.
Chen Xiaotong scratched his head on the other side and looked at the endless spiral void.
