Her skin wasn't particularly good, but she was dressed in very glamorous clothes, a stark contrast that made her seem somewhat out of place here.
But this group of people seemed to be blind, shamelessly showering her with all sorts of praise.
"Ah, she's so beautiful."
"Yes, her skin is really fair."
"She is just like a proud princess. If our prince could marry her, that would be the greatest happiness."
Lu Qingyan, who was perched on the ceiling, was so frightened that she almost fell off. She was truly impressed by how well these people could lie through their teeth.
[Tong'er, quickly help me find that branch!] Hurry up and take it away, or I'll be back.
[Right under Cinderella's skirt.]
Lu Qingyan ⊙▽⊙!
How am I supposed to get this? I can't exactly run over and lift up someone's skirt in public, can I? Lu Qingyan rolled her eyes, then patted the system beside her: [Good girl, materialize and go get the branch. The important task is yours.]
"Master is going to exploit me again." The system tumbled twice in mid-air before finally agreeing.
[Wait a little longer. Didn't Cinderella have a pair of crystal shoes? The tree also said that you need crystal shoes to see the fairy godmother. Let's bring some extra things back on this trip so we don't have to make another trip.]
The song was still echoing when the prince, dressed in his magnificent new clothes, stood before her: "Beautiful princess, may I dance with you?"
Cinderella covered her mouth in surprise, and after a moment of stunned silence, shyly extended her hand in agreement.
A blue bird perched on Lu Qingyan's shoulder: "Little girl, I don't think this Cinderella is pretty at all, and the prince isn't handsome either."
Lu Qingyan countered, "So in your eyes, only that prince whose name you don't know is the best, right?"
Of course, the appearance underneath is indeed very ordinary, far inferior to Xia Junyue.
Everything seemed to happen much faster than in the story; after they jumped around once, the glass slipper fell off. Cinderella took off both glass slippers and ran out of the castle in a panic, before the pursuers could catch up with her.
"Ugh, I'm exhausted." The system, with great effort, dragged two shoes and a piece of dry twig away from Lu Qingyan, dropped the items, and quickly disappeared.
Lu Qingyan climbed onto the back of the large bird: "Thank you for your help, please take me back to the forest quickly."
"Alright, hold on tight. We're off now." It spread its wings and flew into the sky. When it passed the thorny thicket, it realized that the sun had not yet set, whereas it had been dark when it was at the castle.
This place is definitely strange!
The wind was blowing fiercely in mid-air, and Lu Qingyan couldn't help but shrink back. In fact, she couldn't feel the cold from the wind, but she felt a little creeped out.
The white clouds in the sky gradually turned into dark clouds, and dazzling lightning streaked through the clouds, while thunder roared in our ears.
"Daddy, Daddy, why did the sky suddenly change like this? What should we do?" the two little birds asked anxiously in unison.
If it rains later, their wings will get wet and they won't be able to fly. Plus, with Lu Qingyan on their backs, it's practically a case of birds dying and humans perishing!
"Don't be afraid," the big bird comforted his child. "At this time, there will only be wind, thunder, and lightning, not rain. We'll definitely get to the forest before midnight!"
It spoke with unusual firmness, and Lu Qingyan vaguely sensed something was amiss from its words.
