"No, as you know, I have no sense of fashion. I don't know what to wear on stage, and to top it off, there won't be a stylist for the final performance. I'm so worried." Gu Lan'an's response was no different from her past life, but this time, she took advantage of the situation to add fuel to the fire. "Fu Xi, you understand these things, can you help me choose?"
"I? Sure, no problem. Just don't blame me if I make a bad choice," said Gu Lan'an. After acting in so many dramas, she could naturally see when others were acting. It was like now, as she looked at Fu Xi, who had a conflicted expression on the surface but had a hint of happiness in his eyes.
"Fu Xi, it's really good to have you," Gu Lan'an exclaimed, watching Fu Xi eagerly walk towards the clothes rack to carefully select clothes for him. Her fingers quietly tightened, her joints hurting from the force applied.
"Have you chosen yet? Take a look and see if it fits. If it doesn't, I'll choose again." Seeing Fu Xi holding up the red and green robe he had worn in his past life's final match as if presenting a treasure, Gu Lan excitedly took it and compared it to herself. With a smile on her face, she said, "I don't understand these things, but whatever Fu Xi chooses must be suitable. I'll change into it right away."
"Really? I'm truly honored then, to think that I get to see you wearing the clothes I picked for the finals," Fu Xi's face was filled with surprise, and he seemed deeply touched. "But I'm not just saying this, the outfit is perfectly matched, you will definitely look stunning in it. I'm certain it will help you become the most dazzling star on the stage of Bright Star Tomorrow."
Yao Yan? My foot! Gu Lan'an silently raised his middle finger in his heart. In his previous life, he foolishly believed Fu Xi's nonsense and went dressed like that. As a result, he became the laughing stock of everyone present. Not only did it affect his mood and hinder his performance, but he was also shamelessly labeled by the media as the "most tasteless male celebrity" of that year.
"If that really can happen, that would be the best. Thank you, Fu Xi, for thinking of me like this." Though not happy in her heart, Gu Lan'an did not show it on her face, instead thanking him sincerely.
"What thanks? We are brothers. You should change your clothes. I'll go out." Fu Xi smiled proudly. Seeing that he had achieved his purpose for this visit, he quickly bid farewell.
"Go! Just go!" Gu Lan'an impatiently waved her hand, eager for him to leave. Watching Fu Xi walk away, Gu Lan'an disdainfully rolled her eyes and casually tossed aside the clothing in her hands. She walked over to the dressing room mirror, gazing at her long hair draping over her eyes. Dressed plainly yet healthily, she was only 18 years old. With a single hand, she brushed aside her bangs, her eyes scanning over her delicate features. She smiled seductively, her lips curved in a charming manner, and then burst into laughter in front of the mirror, tears streaming down as she spoke, "I'm back, I'm back! Zhao Ye, we can start over again. There are still many possibilities for us. I can prevent you from getting hurt, hold onto you tightly, and spend the rest of my life with you cleanly and wholeheartedly."
There are so many things I want to say, but I don't know where to start. In the end, Gu Lan'an could only weakly and affectionately mumble Zhou Ye's name over and over again, until his voice grew hoarse and he fell silent. After a brief moment of quiet, he forced himself to break free from his tumultuous emotions, took a few deep breaths, and revitalized himself by wiping his face. He then took out his phone and checked the time.
It wasn't even 7:30 yet, but (she) walked to the dressing table and found a pair of scissors, (she) cut her hair and applied light makeup. Then (she) picked a simple yet stylish black and white outfit from the wardrobe. After everything was done, (she) looked at her new self in the mirror and smirked. "Fu Xi, in the last life, you envied me for being highly appreciated by the judges. You used my weakness, bribed the stylist to keep my hair long and dress me up in strange and fancy clothes, diminishing my sharp edges and achieving victory. You can forget about it in this life."
