The advantage of having money is that you can do whatever is convenient for you. Ye Jiuyue's makeup and styling service is available at your door.
At three o'clock, the makeup artist and stylist walked into Ye Jiu's house with their "furniture". Ye Jiu communicated with them about the makeup she wanted and asked them to do it. She also asked Aunt Wang to call Su Qingyue over.
As Su Qingyue entered, she clearly felt a moment of amazement from the makeup artist. Ye Jiu felt a sense of shared honor and pride and said with a hint of pride, "Handsome, isn't he? He's my date tonight."
Su Qingyue laughed when she heard this, "Yes, I'm her date tonight, thank you for your help."
Another makeup artist observed his face for a long time before starting, saying as she did so, "Your skin is in great condition, you already look good without makeup, I can only add a little something extra."
"Thank you." Su Qingyue said casually, his attention was on Ye Jiu beside him. Ye Jiu also had good skin, so her base makeup didn't require much effort. He was currently applying her eye makeup, and although it was only half done, he could already tell how stunning the finished product would be.
"It's beautiful," Su Qingyue couldn't help but praise.
"Keep it down, keep it down. I know I'm beautiful." Ye Jiu pressed her hand down. "Actually, I didn't really want to show off, but I can't help it, I'm just naturally beautiful."
Su Qingyue couldn't help but smile. "You'll definitely amaze everyone tonight."
"Of course, otherwise my money would have been wasted." Ye Jiu raised an eyebrow and smiled.
The makeup artist immediately reassured her, "Don't worry, we'll make you shine tonight."
After her makeup and stylist finished, they took her to change clothes. They had brought several dresses for Ye Jiu to choose from, but after seeing the dresses Ye Jiu had prepared herself, they gave up the idea of showing them to her.
Ye Jiu prepared a white dress for herself. It was a relatively conservative princess dress with an off-the-shoulder design that revealed her delicate collarbone. The high-waisted design made her waist look slimmer and her legs longer. There were pearl decorations at the waist, and the skirt was very large. She would definitely look stunning when she twirled around.
This is a dress that's not suitable for a banquet, but would be perfect for a high school prom.
The stylist laughed and said, "That's right, you're only 17 years old, the perfect age for your skirt to flare out."
Indeed, it's just a high school dance, there shouldn't be so many rules and regulations, just use whatever looks good.

Su Qingyue's outfit was much simpler than Ye Jiu's. Ye Jiu changed her clothes and opened the door. He looked up at the sound and Ye Jiu smiled slightly at him.
Su Qingyue was amazed, but after the amazement came regret. He wanted to hide her away, to hide her away in a place where only he was, so that he could enjoy this beauty and this smile all by himself.
Ye Jiu twirled in front of him, her skirt fluttering gently. "Does it look good?"
"It looks good." Su Qingyue's smile deepened.
This scene is strangely reminiscent of trying on wedding dresses in a bridal shop, where a newlywed wife, having changed into a beautiful wedding gown, can't wait to show off her beauty to the man she loves.
He seemed to see their future.
In contrast, Su Qingyue had her bangs combed up and styled into a slicked-back look with hair gel. She had sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, and her amorous peach blossom eyes held a deep smile as she stared at the person in front of her without blinking.
"You're handsome too. I grant you permission to be my knight and protect me tonight," Ye Jiu joked.
Su Qingyue took her hand and kissed the back of it. "Yes, Your Highness."
Ye Jiu pulled her hand back and covered her face with it, "Ahhh, how do you know how to do this? There are so many people watching, I was just saying it casually."
Ye Jiu's face seemed to be burning, she was so embarrassed that she was practically steaming.

Mingde No.1 Middle School restricts cars from entering the school; otherwise, cars from outside the campus would have driven directly to the school auditorium today.
A red carpet was laid out along the way to prevent the train of her dress from rubbing against the ground. Su Qingyue got out of the car first and opened the car door for Ye Jiu. Ye Jiu, wearing high heels, took Su Qingyue's hand with one hand and used the other hand to hold the car door as she got out.
Ye Jiu's high heels are about 8 centimeters high, which makes her much taller, and the height difference between the two of them is just right when they walk side by side.
"The party starts at six and lasts about two hours. The ball lasts an hour. It's 5:30 in the afternoon now, let's go straight to the auditorium." Ye Jiu glanced at the time and planned their destination. "Let's eat before the ball starts."
Su Qingyue had anticipated this, and took out two chocolates from her pocket and handed them to her, saying, "You can have some to tide you over."
Ye Jiu's eyes lit up immediately. She said coquettishly, "Wow, you even prepared this! I changed into a dress and it doesn't even have pockets, so it's inconvenient to put candy in it. Besides, I forgot about it, hehe."
Ye Jiu couldn't wait to unwrap a piece of chocolate and stuff it into her mouth. "Although I'm not particularly hungry right now, since you've given it to me, I'll naturally do you the honor of eating it!"
With a chocolate in her mouth, she unwrapped another piece and offered it to him, saying, "You should have some too."
Su Qingyue suppressed his surging love and gently bit into the chocolate that Ye Jiu had fed him.
"It's very sweet," he commented.
Ye Jiu nodded in agreement, "I think so too. There's a filling in the middle, so it's not bitter at all."
Unlike the hurried pace of others on the street, Ye Jiu and Su Qingyue strolled leisurely without any sign of urgency. They had no performance to give and were not in a hurry to secure a good spot.
In response, Ms. Ye Jiu said: "The first row and the last row are the same, the auditorium is so big, how could there not be seats?"
The two arrived at the auditorium at exactly 6:50. After entering and finding empty seats, it was already 6:52. Ye Jiu looked around and saw that everyone had changed into their ball gowns and suits. The more formal men were wearing ties, while the more unrestrained men had their collars wide open, revealing their collarbones.
There's a sense of chaotic neutrality; this ball is both formal and informal. Ultimately, the most important thing is to be happy!
Ye Jiu turned her head to look at Su Qingyue's neck. He was wearing a black tie. Ye Jiu suddenly wanted to know how to tie a tie, so she leaned over and grabbed his tie to study it.
If you ignored Ye Jiu's curious expression, Su Qingyue would think that she was lusting after him and was planning to have a French kiss right here.
However, her expression was impossible to ignore.
"Are ties more attractive than me?" Su Qingyue said through gritted teeth.
"Well, I'm just curious how to tie a tie." Ye Jiu didn't notice Su Qingyue's gritted teeth and answered honestly.
"Have you figured it out yet? Do you want me to take it off so you can study it properly?" Su Qingyue said, and started to loosen her tie.
Ye Jiu pressed down on his hand and glared at him. "Why untie it when it's already tied? I can study it after the dance."
Ye Jiu slapped his hand away and helped him tighten and straighten his tie.
"Alright, perfect, let's watch the performance first."
As soon as he finished speaking, the auditorium lights went out, the stage lights came on, and a one-minute countdown appeared on the screen.
Su Qingyue had to swallow the words she wanted to say.
Flirting and then running away, isn't that a bit too much?
Su Qingyue closed his eyes, his heart itching with anticipation. He thought, just a little longer, the college entrance exam will be over soon, it's only a little over 300 days...
