Exotic Beauty

Some things in this world make no sense, such as, having the convenience of the modern world when it comes to sanitation or respect given to females, but having to ride a carriage drawn by a horse for transportation. Well, what can one expect from a novel written by a modern girl? If she hasn't read the novel, she will never be able to tell the heads and tails of this world.

When the arrival of the Lin family was announced, both the families looked at the door with a nonchalant expression while maintaining their elegance and aloofness.

But when their eyes fell on Lin Huiying every single human was quite surprised. They couldn't help but observe from her clothes to hairstyle to accessories to her makeup to her beautiful face. ASTONISHING.

It was not their first time to look at her. They had seen her on few occasions previously. Not many times after she started growing up since the youngsters usually focus on their training before their coming of age at 18. Most of the girls belonging to higher families in that period cover their faces with a veil when occasionally going out of their estates.

Now Lin Huiying and her twin cousins had turned 18 so they could be expected to be seen in the open and attend more events in the future.

The before and after training images were different. It can be said that puberty hit the trio hard. Especially two people – Lin Huiying and Lin Dan.

People had seen her before, but no one had imagined her to turn out to be this stunning. Three different things were quite eye-catching. A face that looked like it was without any makeup but looked more stunning than any other - clothes - and hairstyle + accessories.

Lin Huiying brought a sense of sexy enchantment to every person looking at her. No one can deny her charm. Unique exotic beauty, with a straight nose, heart-shaped lips, and sharp eyes. Her face has wonderful harmony of western and eastern beauty with a balance between her expressive eyes and defined bone structure. The face features high cheekbones, width at the top of the face, and a narrow chin.

She possesses dark brown almond eyes which are wide and long along with out-line double eyelid lines and its height is also very high, which makes the eyes look fancy. High straight nose. Her forehead has a heart shape and goes down straight to the mid-face and it gets slim to the chin. Her protruded chin looks attractive too. Lastly her round dimpled shoulders with long slim hands.

She gives a vibe of a smart girl with soulful eyes while looking elegant and glamorous with that soft and tender smile.

For the royal dinner, Lin Huiying was wearing a chest ruqun hanfu dress which includes semi-transparent white long loose sleeves hanfu coat with delicate plum blossom embroidery in shades of purple, white, light purple, and a hint of Turkish blue on it. Inside the coat was the same semi-transparent v neck white top which was tucked inside the long skirt in the shade of purple tied on the chest with adjustable ribbon chest band of dark purple color with flower embroidery. Around the band was the drawstring closure holding it together. At the end of the skirt, there was similar plum blossom embroidery in a light purple shade.

The look was complete with the hanfu shawl also known as Pibo which was wrapped around the back and two arms with the ends naturally hanging down in front of the body. The silk fabric was dyed in a similar purple shade with white plum blossom matching the long skirt.

In this world, there were already many cosmetics for women such as aluminum powder, rouge, applique, lipstick, etc. They can use only two or three of them to draw light makeup or use all of them to draw full makeup.

But for Lin Huiying, even a no-makeup look requires numerous high-quality products and skills. For others, it looked as if she was born beautiful. Because the look of makeup was different for them. That's what makes her stand out the most.

Her hairstyle was unique in itself. It was her idea. She wanted it to be a statement but also look romantic. She felt that a soft, messy texture helps to create that aura. So, she went for a half up and half down bun.

She had decided to let the twins do the hairstyle, but after looking at the style of this world, she couldn't bear it. She felt like she was carrying few kilos on her head while looking like an old woman. So, she vowed to never try the hairstyles of this world.

I am sorry if this chapter came across as a little boring one. But it was specifically for her introduction. Her beauty to her fashion sense. Thank you for reading it!
