Сhaptеr 2: Тhе Fох-like Beаutу
At this momеnt, the Jiang Fu rеflесtеd in thе mirrоr had соmрlеtely shеd her previous оrdinаry арреаranсе.
Нer originаllу somеwhat uneven fаcе shape hаd now trаnsformеd intо a pеrfectly оvаl fасe. Thе sаllоw, dull сomplеxiоn that onсe marrеd her skin had vаnished without a trасе, reрlаced by а fair аnd rоsy glow.
Нer eуes, whiсh hаd аlwaуs held a сertain livеlinеss, nоw carried an added touch оf аllure. Long, delicаtе eyelаshеs naturally extended into a subtle eyeliner effect at the outer corners. A small red mole rested just below her left eye, and with every shift of her gaze, it was utterly captivating.
Her nose had become petite and refined, her lips red and teeth white. Even a faint smile now radiated undeniable charm.
Yet the most remarkable thing was that despite such perfection, this face was still unmistakably Jiang Fu’s.
It was as if her contours, features, and skin had all been subtly refined into their most optimal versions.
Jiang Fu had always stood at 168cm, but her figure had been overly flat, lacking any graceful curves.
Now, however, the perfect S-shaped curves brought by this second growth, along with her slender waist that seemed almost too delicate to hold, made her the very embodiment of the phrase “a natural-born enchantress.”
For a moment, Jiang Fu wondered if she was dreaming. She never imagined such a dramatic transformation could happen overnight, and she couldn’t contain her joy.
“The system’s products truly are top-notch. I never expected this Optimization Fluid to enhance not just my face but my body too. It’s really… I could cry.”
Although this hands-off system seemed a bit unreliable in its approach, Jiang Fu was genuinely praising it now.
If the system could take human form, she wouldn’t hesitate to give it a big bear hug.
After admiring her reflection, Jiang Fu suppressed her excitement, took a deep breath, and returned to her room.
Having witnessed her own transformation, Jiang Fu’s former insecurities were gradually fading away, replaced by delight and newfound confidence.
If it were yesterday, she would have had little faith in passing the interview. But now, given her current condition, the interview was practically guaranteed.
According to the terms offered by Dreamweaving, once Jiang Fu passed the interview, it meant that during the one-month dance training period, she wouldn’t have to worry about food or accommodation.
Thinking of this, the tension that had gripped Jiang Fu over her livelihood finally began to ease.
So, she opened the food delivery app she hadn’t used in months and ordered herself a stone pot bibimbap along with a mango pomelo sago drink, wanting to treat her poor stomach that had endured instant noodles for far too long.
While waiting for the delivery, Jiang Fu freshened up. Without a hairdryer, she could only roughly towel-dry her hair.
Before long, the delivery driver called. Jiang Fu picked up her phone from the table and held it to her ear.
“Hello, your delivery is here. Could you please come to the door to pick it up?” The delivery guy’s voice came through the phone.
“Okay, I’ll be right there.” Jiang Fu hung up, casually grabbed a jacket, put it on, and headed for the door.
Opening the door, she found two delivery guys standing outside. The gap wasn’t wide, just enough for half of Jiang Fu’s body to lean out.
She quickly reached out and took both bags, saying softly, “Thank you~”
Jiang Fu wasn’t the overly familiar type; strictly speaking, she was an introvert, so her movements were swift.
Hearing her voice, both guys looked up at the same time. In that instant, they seemed momentarily dazed, their eyes lighting up with awe and admiration.Recognizing Jiang Fu’s face, one of them swallowed hard, but the other delivery guy spoke up first:
“No need to thank me. It’s my honor to serve a beauty.”
The words sounded a bit cheesy, but they were the truth.
Jiang Fu at this moment could no longer be described by the ordinary term “beauty.” It was perfectly normal for the delivery guys to react this way.
Hearing this, Jiang Fu didn’t reply, only offering a faint smile before closing the door.
At the sound of the door closing, the two snapped back to reality, exchanging glances. The delivery guy who hadn’t had a chance to speak earlier said:
“This girl is the most beautiful I’ve ever seen in all my time delivering food. The best part is, she was clearly wearing no makeup just now. Absolutely stunning.”
“Even if she’s beautiful, she’s not yours. Better focus on your deliveries,” the other teased in reply.
…
Back inside, Jiang Fu enjoyed a satisfying meal and rested for a while. By the time she was done, it was already 11 o’clock.
Jiang Fu opened her long-unused makeup bag, applying only sunscreen and primer, filling in her eyebrows, and putting on a nude lipstick. Even with such minimal makeup, her reflection in the mirror was breathtaking.
With her light makeup done, Jiang Fu began picking out her outfit.
After a few minutes of searching, she chose a white U-neck top, pairing it with a gray cardigan.
Clothes that had fit her perfectly before now felt tight due to the changes in her figure, accentuating her striking curves.
She paired the outfit with light blue flared jeans and a pair of white sneakers.
After adjusting her clothes and gently tucking her long hair behind her ears, Jiang Fu picked up her phone and headed out.
Having not gone out for so long, Jiang Fu felt a bit uneasy at first. It was a ten-minute walk from her place to the subway station.
Since it was Monday, there weren’t many pedestrians on the street. Even so, Jiang Fu’s slender figure and flawless face drew plenty of second glances.
Sensing the frequent stares from passersby, Jiang Fu instinctively quickened her pace.
For the moment, she hadn’t yet grown accustomed to the chain reaction brought about by this change in her appearance.
Just as she passed by a floor-to-ceiling window, someone happened to look up and glance outside.
…
A few minutes earlier, inside a café by the window, Fu Siyan was bent over, handling documents.
His slender, well-defined fingers gently pushed up his silver-rimmed square glasses, his eyes deep and focused.
The top two buttons of his crisp white shirt were undone, with his tie loosely knotted beneath the open collar, revealing a glimpse of his collarbone.
His dark hair was parted in a 60-40 style, slicked back into a half-updo. His sharp, angular face exuded a presence beyond his years—steady and dignified.
After a long while, Fu Siyan rubbed his eyes, tired from staring at the screen, and picked up his long-cold coffee. He took a small sip before setting it down again. As he instinctively glanced out the window, a figure caught his eye.
The girl walking briskly past was dressed casually, yet her aura was captivating.
Her enchanting, fox-like eyes seemed to hold emotion without appearing vulgar, focused intently on the path ahead.
Her exceptional proportions made her even more striking.
Yet she moved with urgency, seemingly indifferent to the people and things around her.
Bathed in the midday sunlight, Jiang Fu seemed to glow. With just one glance, Fu Siyan felt his heart skip a beat.
