Chapter 175 It seems everyone values ​​their life quite a bit.

Song Xinyao learned very quickly, and before long, she had mastered the doggy paddle.

She was so incredibly proud of herself that she insisted on showing it off to Ling Yue and Shen Qingxue.

As it turned out, she was exhausted after just one round trip.

Clinging to the ladder, she refused to move another inch, "I can't do it anymore, I'm completely tapped out..."

"It's been an hour already. Swimming should be done in moderation. Let's go back to the room and wash up." Having been in the water for so long, Ling Yue also felt a bit cold.

The three of them shivered as they made their way from the pool back to their room.

They first rinsed off with warm water, then went to the sauna for a steam.

After this whole routine, their entire bodies felt refreshed and invigorated.

"Wow! So comfortable!" Ling Yue rolled around on the bed a few times.

This giant bed must have been custom-made; it was so spacious that sleeping ten people wouldn't be a problem at all.

Song Xinyao dove onto the bed, throwing herself into the soft mattress, "Whoa, I want to be welded to this bed. What brand of bedding is this? It's just too comfortable!"

She looked around but couldn't find any information about the brand.

Ling Yue crossed her legs and said casually, "If you like it, just ask the villa housekeeper when we eat, and have her help buy it. We can take it back to our country."

"No, no, no, that's too extravagant. I was just saying it off the cuff." Song Xinyao was afraid of Ling Yue's impulsiveness.

Her curiosity had just gotten the better of her; she didn't actually want to buy it!

Come to think of it, having a best friend who could buy anything for you on a whim was truly amazing!

Feeling blessed again, Xinyao~

Shen Qingxue walked to the bed while yawning and dived straight in, "I'm exhausted, I want to sleep."

Ling Yue opened her eyes and glanced at the clock nearby, "You can sleep for another hour and a half, because we're going out for dinner at 6:30 PM."

"Huh, we're going out?" Upon hearing that they were going out, Shen Qingxue was no longer sleepy, her eyes shining brightly.

There was no helping it; the two of them were too familiar with each other.

Ling Yue immediately guessed what she was thinking, "Yes, and it's a candlelight dinner, too~"

"Oh my god! Then why are we still lying here? Get up quickly!" Shen Qingxue sprang up in a rush.

Song Xinyao propped herself up to look at her, "What are you doing?"

"Makeup!" Shen Qingxue grabbed Ling Yue and pulled her off the bed, "If we don't count acting, this is my first formal candlelight dinner, and in such a beautiful place, too.

I have to put on makeup, wear a pretty dress, and take some photos. That way, when I look back at them in the future, I'll feel like this life was worth living!"

Song Xinyao was deeply tempted.

"This is my first candlelight dinner too! Come on, let's do it, let's do it!" Saying this, she scurried over to where the luggage was kept and pulled out a large makeup bag.

Considering that she had previously told Cheng Jiao to let everyone rest, Ling Yue didn't call over Hu Liyun's team. Over the past few months, she had occasionally practiced makeup on herself. While it wasn't a qualitative leap, she could at least manage a normal, light makeup look without any problems.

The three of them took the makeup bag to the sunken living room.

It was sunny here, and they could enjoy the ocean view up close.

Just as they were about to start, Ling Yue put her hands on her hips, "It feels a bit dry."

"Where is it dry?" Song Xinyao looked around.

Shen Qingxue thought for a moment, then suddenly nodded with an expression that said, 'I know what's dry.'

She took out the phone that Cheng Jiao had given her earlier, connected it to the indoor Bluetooth device, opened the local music app, and randomly played a song:

"Been sittin thinkin bout you and I And wonderin why were not getting along..."

The music played from above and all around.

This surround-sound feeling was just like having the singer singing right in your ear.

The effect was even more stunning than being at a concert in person.

"Now that's the vibe!" Ling Yue sat down, satisfied.

Shen Qingxue's body couldn't help but start moving to the rhythm. She started by humming lightly, then got into the groove and began singing along.

Zang Lanyi, who was just about to cover her ears, silently put her hands down.

So, not all of the Young Miss's friends were tone-deaf like her.

Ling Yue pursed her lips and blew a kiss, "Mwah, mwah, mwah, my darling Little Xuexue, which window did God close for you exactly?!

You're pretty, you sing well, you have a great figure, you work hard, you have some small achievements, and most importantly, you have a group of amazing best friends!"

"The last part is what you really wanted to say, right?" Shen Qingxue said with a proud look.

Ling Yue pouted, "If only I could have such a beautiful singing voice too."

After saying that, she took a deep breath and prepared to sing along.

Before she could even make a sound, her mouth was covered by Shen Qingxue, "No need, you really don't have to."

Ling Yue: "Mmph, mmph, mmph, mmph, mmph!" What is that supposed to mean!

Before Shen Qingxue could figure out how to explain, she heard Song Xinyao hit a high note.

That wild singing style, that unconventional vocal technique—the sound pierced through the eardrums, triggering a tremor in the soul!

Zang Lanyi blinked her eyes, thinking: Luckily there's no microphone here... I, I hope there isn't one, right?

This one note made even Ling Yue feel like she had suffered a serious internal injury.

Shen Qingxue turned her head and covered Song Xinyao's mouth, saying, "I finally understand why, at the last class reunion, the second round of KTV broke up before 11 o'clock. It seems everyone really values their lives."

"Mmph?" Song Xinyao was confused; Song Xinyao didn't understand.

So, do people who sing badly really not know that they sing badly?

Zang Lanyi's little heart was filled with big questions, but she didn't dare to ask, and she didn't dare to say anything.

Song Xinyao finally quieted down.

Ling Yue gave a light cough and said, "Let's do our makeup, otherwise we won't have enough time."

Turning around, she saw Zang Lanyi sitting stiffly on the sofa and pushed some unopened cosmetics from in front of her onto the table in front of her: "A-Lan, you should put some on too."

A flicker of anticipation appeared in Zang Lanyi's eyes, but she hesitated for a moment before shaking her head, "I, I don't need to."

Ling Yue said, "Qu Shu and the others will definitely wear makeup. They'll probably take thousands of photos during dinner. When you look back at them later and everyone is beautiful and refined, you're going to regret it."

"But I... I'm clumsy with my hands." Zang Lanyi had tried applying makeup herself before, but she couldn't figure out why, with hands capable of driving a race car, she couldn't apply makeup well.

She was very puzzled herself.

Shen Qingxue waved her hand grandly, "I know how! I've loved tinkering with my face since college. Later, when I joined a crew to film, there were no makeup artists for minor supporting roles, so I had to do my own makeup. I've practiced enough that my skills are actually quite good~"

"Really? Can you?" Zang Lanyi asked shyly.

Shen Qingxue said generously, "What's the big deal? If we're going to be beautiful, we should all be beautiful together!"

Zang Lanyi also sat on the floor, joining the makeup squad, "Then what should I do next?"

"Hmm... first, let's hydrate." Shen Qingxue took a cotton pad soaked in toner and applied it to Zang Lanyi's face.

Looking at the beautiful scenery and listening to the music.

A group of people chatted excitedly, discussing what color lipstick to use.

What was originally supposed to take twenty minutes ended up taking a full hour and a half.

Zang Lanyi's suitcase was full of casual clothes convenient for manual labor; there wasn't a single dress. Ling Yue searched through her own suitcase for a long time before she found a loose, long, bohemian-style dress, paired with a shawl, which was both warm and just right for covering Zang Lanyi's toned arms.

"How is it?" Ling Yue pulled Zang Lanyi in front of the mirror.

Zang Lanyi spun around and chuckled, "It's beautiful, it's beautiful!"

"Knock, knock, knock, knock, knock, knock!"

At 6:30, Cheng Jiao knocked on the door right on time.

"Young Miss, it's time to leave."

Ling Yue was debating whether to take her bag and was about to ask Cheng Jiao when she saw that the usually plain-dressed woman had changed into a beautiful dress and applied exquisite makeup.

Ling Yue: "Housekeeper Cheng looks so beautiful today!"

Cheng Jiao naturally had defined and deep features, and since she took good care of herself, one couldn't really tell she was already in her forties.

With just a little bit of dressing up, an exotic aura radiated from her.

Cheng Jiao said shyly, "The scenery is too beautiful, I didn't want to waste it."

Ling Yue agreed, "That's what traveling is all about. Everyone shouldn't be reserved. It's not easy to get out here once, so you have to play hard to make it worth it! Get as beautiful as possible!

By the way, is the place where we're eating far?"

"It's not far, it's right within the villa area," Cheng Jiao replied.

So Ling Yue tossed her bag aside and took only her phone, traveling light, "Let's go!"
