I Have Yet to Become a Doll Today - Chapter 472: 472: Not What You Think

Chapter 472: Chapter 472: Not What You Think
Everyone held some awe for the four individuals who’d managed to clear the levels, and with Bai Youwei being notoriously resourceful and not to be messed with, her current tirade went unchallenged by the young boys.

The boy she was berating directed a plea for help at Shen Fei.

Shen Fei awkwardly looked away, thinking to himself: I wouldn’t dare either…

“Shen Fei.” Bai Youwei called out.

“A…ah?” Shen Fei jumped in surprise, immediately standing up straight. “Wha…what’s the matter?”

“Come here.” Bai Youwei beckoned to him. “I have something to discuss.”

“Oh, alright…” Under the watchful eyes of his friends, Shen Fei followed Bai Youwei.

They moved to a nearby corner, a less noisy area. Shen Fei asked, puzzled, “What is it?”

After looking around, Bai Youwei whispered to him, “Do you have a car? Can you give me a ride home?”

“Home?” Shen Fei couldn’t help but ask, “Aren’t you going back with my brother?”

Struck with displeasure, Bai Youwei raised an eyebrow, “Are you driving me or not? If not, I’ll ask someone else!”

“I’ll drive…” Shen Fei brought out his car key explaining, “I thought you were going with my brother, so I was just asking.”

– Automobile fuel was a precious commodity, so although most people in the city owned cars, they generally refrained from using them. They would walk if they could, and would only drive when going on long trips.

Shen Fei had some standing within their organization, so both the vehicle and fuel were supplied internally.

He thought that Bai Youwei had asked him to save on fuel, but once they were in the car, she dictated, “Don’t tell Shen Mo, just take me back later.”

Shen Fei: “Why…”

Bai Youwei furrowed her brows.

Shen Fei clamped his mouth shut, asking no more.

He had to find a way to escape being referred to as the planet’s baby!

…

When Bai Youwei reached her residence, she instructed Shen Fei to wait in the living room. She then went into her room, locked the door behind her, and took out a golden key to unlock her dollhouse.

Both Teacher Cheng and Pan Xiaoxin were playing in the square, so the dollhouse was empty for now.

She then quickly washed her hair and body in the bathroom, followed by blow-drying her hair. All these simple actions weren’t as easy for her, so they took some time.

Once freshened up, she pulled out a lake-blue long dress from her wardrobe. With a deep V-neck, ruffle edges, and a soft fit, even her less than perfect figure looked stunning. The wave pattern below the knees on the dress wonderfully concealed the imperfections on her legs.

Looking at herself in the mirror, Bai Youwei let out a sigh, then pushed herself out of the dollhouse in her wheelchair.

She wasn’t done yet.

She had returned because she remembered that the dressing table in her room was laden with makeup left by the room’s previous owner.

Sitting before the dressing table, she meticulously applied foundation, drew her eyebrows, and even tried mascara to make her eyes more vibrant. She decided to forego eyeshadow altogether as she had never used it before. Next was the moving of the lipstick, she cut off a small slice and gently applied it to her lips, followed by puckering.

She considered trying a small amount of perfume, but didn’t like the scent left behind by the previous owner and decided to skip it.

Finally, Bai Youwei fluffed her hair up a bit, giving it more volume.

In the mirror, her snow-white skin contrasted with her red lips. The delicate, girlish face hidden beneath the expansive dark hair blurred age boundaries, displaying both the innocence of a girl and the charm of a woman.

She was finally satisfied.

The night sky, a bonfire, strong liquor, and aromatic food brewing; such an environment was perfect for her bold and bright makeup.

As she opened the bedroom door, she saw Shen Fei asleep on the living room sofa.

Bai Youwei woke him up and asked, “How do I look?”

Shen Fei was taken aback. He looked at the made-up Bai Youwei and stammered, “I, uh…I think…”

“I don’t want you to think.” Bai Youwei looked intently at him. “Would your brother like this?”
