Chapter 118 Ruan Yunxian's face is quite amusing.

Lin Yu reached out and gently removed the white cotton eye mask from Ruan Yunxian's eyes.

Ruan Yunxian was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously wanted to reach out to block, but she lowered her hand halfway through.

"Senior—won't you look different if you take off your blindfold?"

Looking at herself in the mirror without her blindfold, Ruan Yunxian suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.

Looking at it this way, she really doesn't resemble Rikka Takanashi at all. Right now, she just looks like a teenage high school girl with dyed hair.

Lin Yu placed the eye mask on the vanity and looked at herself in the mirror.

"Don't worry, you can put it back on later."

The eye patch is practically Rikka Takanashi's signature accessory, and Lin Yu couldn't possibly be unaware of that, so of course he wouldn't forget it.

However, it's inconvenient to wear makeup while wearing it, so it naturally needs to be taken off first. The wig also needs to be removed first, as strands of hair on the face would also affect Lin Yu's operation.

Ruan Yunxian blinked but didn't say anything.

Oh right, how could you forget something so basic, senior?

Lin Yu removed the wig and temporarily placed it on the mannequin's head, revealing Ruan Yunxian's original hair, which was tied up and covered by a hairnet.

The black hairnet pressed her hair down neatly, revealing her smooth forehead.

"Let me remove your makeup first." Lin Yu picked up a bottle of makeup remover from the vanity and poured it onto a cotton pad. "Close your eyes."

Ruan Yunxian obediently closed her eyes.

Lin Yu took a cotton pad soaked in makeup remover and gently pressed it onto her eyelids, allowing the makeup remover to slowly dissolve the eye makeup that Ruan Yunxian had just applied.

After removing her eye makeup, Lin Yu changed to a new cotton pad and continued. Foundation, concealer, and blush were removed layer by layer by the makeup remover, revealing Ruan Yunxian's original skin tone.

Her skin is very good, fair and delicate, with almost no blemishes, so applying too much foundation is unnecessary.

"You have good skin," Lin Yu said.

Ruan Yunxian's lips curled up even higher: "Of course, I take skincare very seriously! I—oh—ah—"

Lin Yu wiped Ruan Yunxian's face with a cotton pad, inevitably deforming her soft cheeks and affecting her pronunciation, making her utter a jumble of indistinct syllables.

Ruan Yunxian's face was quite amusing. Lin Yu kept making funny faces with his hands, making Ruan Yunxian, who was speaking, only able to make muffled sounds.

This made Lin Yu find it somewhat amusing.

But Lin Yu quickly came to his senses.

He threw the last cotton pad into the trash can, picked up a clean tissue, and gently wiped away the remaining makeup remover from her face.

He picked up a jar of face cream from the vanity, unscrewed the cap, scooped out a little with his fingertip, and gently dabbed it onto Ruan Yunxian's forehead.

On the cheeks, nose, and chin.

"Take good care of your skin first," Lin Yu said, gently patting face cream onto Ruan Yunxian's face. "You just removed your makeup, so you need to follow up with skincare."

Ruan Yunxian closed her eyes, feeling the touch of Lin Yu's palms rubbing her face.

It's cool, smooth, and very comfortable.

"Senior, do you usually take care of your skin?" she asked.

"Occasionally."

"What do you usually use, senior?"

"Soap."

Ruan Yunxian couldn't help but laugh: "Senior, isn't that just washing your face?"

""

Lin Yu did not deny it; he usually only washes his face and has never used any skincare products.

Oh, at most I'll apply some Vaseline to prevent frostbite when it's too cold in winter.

Lin Yu didn't continue the topic. After letting Ruan Yunxian's skincare products sit on her face for a while, Lin Yu picked up the foundation from the vanity and squeezed a little onto the back of his hand.

"Now, let's start again."

Ruan Yunxian has a complete set of cosmetics. Lin Yu just glanced at them and they are more than enough.

He skillfully used foundation, concealer, and other products to apply a base for Ruan Yunxian.

Lin Yu switched between different tools in his hands, completing the entire process in one go without any unnecessary pauses.

Ruan Yunxian's skin was already in very good condition, smooth and fair, so Lin Yu didn't need to worry too much about the base makeup step.

His movements were so fast that Ruan Yunxian didn't even have time to react before her base makeup was finished, and Lin Yu had already picked up his eyebrow pencil to prepare to draw his eyebrows and apply eye makeup.

"Close your eyes."

Lin Yu moved to stand in front of Ruan Yunxian, squatted down, cupped Ruan Yunxian's face in one hand, and said softly.

Ruan Yunxian quietly and obediently closed her eyes.

In the darkness, she could clearly feel the makeup brush on her face, sweeping gently and soothingly around her eyes, a ticklish sensation.

Ruan Yunxian felt her head swaying and turning from side to side under Lin Yu's large hands, like a puppet being manipulated. Lin Yu's fingers steadily supported Ruan Yunxian's cheeks, and his soft breath would occasionally brush against her face.

These tactile sensations were exceptionally acute in the darkness, but they weren't unpleasant; on the contrary, they made Ruan Yunxian feel quite at ease.

I wonder if it's because I'm already quite familiar with Lin Yu.

Ruan Yunxian didn't know how long this period lasted, but she enjoyed the feeling and hoped it could continue forever.

Then she heard Lin Yu calling her name.

"Alright, open your eyes and see how it is?"

Ruan Yunxian slowly opened her eyes. Having kept them closed for so long, she found it difficult to adjust to the light. She blinked hard until she felt normal, then looked at herself in the mirror.

Then she froze.

At first, Ruan Yunxian didn't even recognize who the radiant figure in the mirror was.

It wasn't until she realized that when she blinked, the person in the mirror was also blinking that she realized the person in the mirror was herself.

Ruan Yunxian felt like she had stepped out of a two-dimensional world.

Oh my god, is this really me?

She could clearly sense that there was a fundamental difference between the makeup Lin Yu wore and the makeup she wore.

This is a completely different line of thinking.

Makeup is amazing!

"Here, put on your colored contacts." Lin Yu handed the box of colored contacts to Ruan Yunxian. "You'll have to bring these yourself."

Ruan Yunxian put on her colored contact lenses, blinked, and immediately felt that her eyes had become much bigger.

With the eye makeup Lin Yu had just applied, her eyes looked big and bright, like those reflective big eyes in anime.

"Senior, my eyes seem to have gotten bigger." Ruan Yunxian couldn't help but raise her hand to touch the corner of her eye.

"It's just an illusion," Lin Yu explained to Ruan Yunxian, standing behind her and holding onto the back of the chair. "Using larger colored contact lenses creates the illusion of larger pupils, and when combined with eye makeup, it makes the eyes appear bigger."

"And now the proportions are more in line with the feel of anime characters."

"There's one last step." Lin Yu picked up the white eye mask from the dressing table and walked over to her.

Lin Yu's fingers spread open the straps of the blindfold, adjusting the elastic to a suitable length, neither too loose nor too tight, just right to fix it on Ruan Yunxian's face.

Ruan Yunxian looked up and watched him gently put the blindfold on her right eye.
