[COD] Newbie's Rise to Power

Page 212

Blizzard frowned as he looked at your makeup and said, "Why aren't you done yet? It's almost time."

You take out the lipstick she gave you and say with a smile, "All that's missing is to put on some lipstick."

After saying that, you looked in the mirror and lightly applied a layer of orange-red lipstick, which perfectly matched your clothes and makeup.

Blizzard nodded in satisfaction, then looked at Wang Zhiqiang and asked jokingly:

"Zimo, isn't our YN beautiful today?"

Wang Zhiqiang glanced at you, then lowered his eyes and replied:

When has she ever not been beautiful?

Upon hearing this, Blizzard covered his mouth and chuckled.

You're being so helpless. The way you're saying this makes it sound like you're some kind of stunning beauty.

You're just an ordinary girl. Your face gets dirty and oily during training, and your skin sometimes looks tired and breaks out in pimples. It's nothing like what he said, that you're always beautiful.

Wang Zhiqiang, stared at by your helpless gaze, immediately defended himself:

"I'm serious!"

You nodded: "I know, and I think I'm very pretty too!"

No matter how others see you, in your own eyes you are special and possess a unique beauty.

Luo Wei glanced at his watch and reminded them, "It's almost time, let's go."

You and Blizzard nodded, and she took your hand. The two girls wore thin high heels, but their movements were not unsteady at all. Instead, they were as light as butterflies in flight.

The dressing room is a short distance from the small stage set up at the base, so you'll have to walk there after you've finished your makeup.

Perhaps because you were wearing a down jacket over your clothes, you didn't feel very cold when you went out.

A thin mist escaped from your vibrant lips, and as the mist dissipated from your sight once more, you saw a familiar figure.

The ghost, who was talking to Soap not far away, immediately said goodbye to Soap and walked over when it saw your group.

As soon as he gets close to you, he will issue commands to you with a clear objective.

"yn, come with me."

ch.232: The whole world, loving one another

Your boss calls you in private, and you have no choice but to let go of Blizzard's hand and prepare to leave with Ghost.

"We don't have much time left. If you need anything, Lieutenant, you need to do it as soon as possible."

Wang Zhiqiang raised his hand, blocking you and the ghost, and looked at the ghost with displeasure.

The ghost glanced at him sideways, his low, hoarse voice tinged with impatience:

"Sergeant Zimo, you don't need to worry about this."

You quickly spoke up to stop the two of them.

"Zi Mo, Lieutenant, we need to hurry."

Wang Zhiqiang then lowered his hand and watched you leave behind the ghost.

However, you and the ghost didn't get very far, and he didn't have anything important to tell you.

"You're going to perform dressed like this?"

The ghost stopped, turned around and stared at you for a while, then suddenly asked you softly.

You immediately explained, "No, it's because I didn't have a suitable coat, so I just wore whatever was available. I'll take it off when I go on stage."

Ghost: "Now, take it off."

You look at the ghost in shock, only to see him take off his coat and continue speaking to you:

"It's cold, you can wear mine first."

You finally breathed a sigh of relief, then hesitated:

"But Lieutenant, your coat will cover my cheongsam."

Actually, cheongsams go quite well with coats and trench coats, but they are easily covered up.

If it weren't for that, you could have worn the coat that Ms. Mila gave you before. It's just a pity that the coat was double-breasted, so even if you unbuttoned it, it would cover most of the clothes underneath.

If women's clothing is like this, then men's clothing, which is even more oversized, must be even more so.

"Little bird, where's the brooch I gave you?"

You were taken aback by what you heard, then reached into the pocket of your down jacket and took out the black gift box that you had been carrying inside.

You originally planned to return it to the ghost after the performance, but you didn't expect him to ask about it.

After the ghost makes you take off your down jacket, he drapes the Chesterfield coat he's holding over your shoulders, and a faint smell of tobacco instantly surrounds you.

The coat, which only reached above the ghost's knees, ended up to your calves on you. However, since the coat was only draped over your shoulders and your arms were hanging freely, it didn't really cover your cheongsam.

However, if it's just loosely draped like this, it's easy for it to fall off with the slightest movement, so it still needs...

The moment this thought crossed your mind, you saw the ghost take the box from your hand and take out the brooch inside.

Then, separate the two ends of the robin and the gem and sew them onto the collar of the coat.

The chain in the middle was stretched taut, which was just enough to hold the open coat in place.

This way, the coat will be secured to your shoulders, making it less likely to fall off even when you move around.

After the ghost fastened the brooch, her gaze softened as she looked at you, and her deep, husky voice revealed a lost sense of admiration.

"How beautiful, my little bird."

The focus and love in his eyes make your heart ache and feel flustered.

You turn your head away, avoiding his gaze, afraid that you might drown in that deep brown pool.

"Lieutenant, thank you for the coat, but I should go back now."

The ghost opened its mouth as if to say something, but then saw a small red mark suddenly appear on your neck when you turned your head!

His eyes were glazed over, then he slowly closed them.

When he opened his eyes again, they had returned to their usual calm.

"Okay, then leave your coat here with me for now, and come back to me later to get it back."

You politely declined, saying, "This is too much trouble for you. I can just put it anywhere."

The ghost, however, grabbed your coat directly and demanded, as if it were perfectly reasonable:

"I gave you my coat, won't I be cold? So, give me your coat, this is an exchange."

Looking at your jacket, which is two or three sizes too small for him, you think his reasoning is really lame.

But he's already said all that, and even lent you his clothes. Wouldn't it be a little awkward to refuse?

It's just a coat...

And so, you and the ghost 'swapped' your coats.

When you returned to Blizzard wearing the Ghost's Coat, her eyes were filled with astonishment.

Wang Zhiqiang, however, was clearly unhappy; if he had ears, they would definitely be drooping at that moment.

You sighed inwardly, then smiled and asked him:

"Brother, why are you making that face? Do I look bad like this?"

Although he felt somewhat guilty, he had to get used to it, to getting used to the fact that you would show traces of other people...

Wang Zhiqiang stared at you intently for a few seconds before offering a faint smile, followed by his hoarse voice.

"Well, it's beautiful."

A few minutes later, after Vita's bass performance, it was your turn.

The four of you walked onto the stage one by one, illuminated by the stage lights. The jewelry you wore reflected the light, like twinkling stars.

You look down at the audience and see a mixture of curiosity and amazement in their eyes.

This suddenly gives you a surge of confidence, and you give them a smile as a sign of courtesy.

But in the eyes of Ghost, Kruger, Nicoto, and Koenig, your confident, expectant smile seemed to say:

"Look at me! All eyes are on me!"

The girl, dressed in a red cheongsam and with soft, radiant makeup, exuded a mysterious and elegant exotic charm.

The coat she wore added to her domineering aura, making her seem to look down on everyone with her confident smile!

How could anyone not be captivated by such a breathtaking scene, and how could they possibly forget it?

A melodious, gradually increasing, and magnificently stirring piece of music slowly began to play. After a period of increasing euphoria, you all simultaneously raised your microphones...

Wang Zhiqiang was the first to speak:

Looking up to the height of mount tai

Travel through a time tunnel

In the arms of heaven

You then continued:

Youthful heartbeats

Syncing in pride

The saint smiles in heaven

Then came the blizzard's resounding high note:

The meandering water of the Yellow River

Gather in the East China Sea

The dragon emerges From the peak and tail of the waves
