Madame is Pretending to be an Academic Slacker Again!

Up till now, the dorm leader had been facing everyone in profile. At this moment she turned her face straight on and even pointed at her own cheeks to draw attention. Everyone suddenly realized that at some point, her flat ”pancake” face had actually turned into a fresh, dewy, oval ”egg” face.

No wonder they’d kept feeling something was different about her—she’d gotten prettier.

So... it was because she’d taken the Ten-Complete Great Replenishing Pill?

The girls instantly exploded like a pot coming to boil:

”What’s the Ten-Complete Great Replenishing Pill?”

”Sounds super expensive. I heard upperclassmen have been buying it.”

”Yeah yeah, it’s not just for beauty, it also boosts Spiritual Power. Why else would it be called ’Ten-Complete Great Replenishing’? It’s insanely pricey.”

”Wow, dorm leader, you must be loaded. Does your family own a mine so you can keep taking it non-stop?”

Ding Yu was even more jealous, practically itching to cling to the dorm leader: ”Can you share your experience with us? I’ll trade you my ointment for it...”

The dorm leader gave a derisive snort: ”It’s because I’m the spokesperson for the Ten-Complete Great Replenishing Pill, of course I can keep taking it non-stop, I don’t need my family to own a mine!”

The girls were curious: ”Spokesperson?”

The dorm leader took Qin Xin’s phone, swiped it open and showed them: ”Here, you guys stuck at school have no idea how exciting the outside world is. Ever seen a studio where they shoot commercials? Ever tried having your ad run on every electronic screen on every building in the city center? Ever had every news outlet and newspaper front page filled with your own photos? Hehe, I’ve done all that!”

What she showed them were all the promo clips she’d filmed these past two days.

They vividly documented her journey from a chubby pancake-faced girl to a well-proportioned, oval-faced beauty, full of surprises.

The girls stared so hard their eyes went blank.

There aren’t many entertainment events in the Empire, and news ads are extremely rare. On the rare occasion something gets shot, it’s always for some big shot with outstanding powers, the kind worthy of being on the front page.

And now an ordinary girl sitting right beside them had achieved the same kind of glory?

They were dying of envy, ahhhh.

”How did you pull it off? You’re seriously amazing.” Ding Yu couldn’t help asking, once again taking out her ointment to pitch it. ”Can you take me along and show me the world too? From now on all the ointments I develop will be free for you to use. Can you tell us how to get in touch with the manufacturer of the Ten-Complete Great Replenishing Pill?”

The dorm leader snorted again: ”I already said I’m not interested in that crappy stuff of yours.”

Then she hurried a few steps to catch up with Qin Xin, affectionately hooking her arm through Qin Xin’s: ”Sister Xin, they’re trying to sniff out company secrets, should we tell them?”

Qin Xin didn’t care: ”It’s up to you. It’s not like what our company sells is some big secret.”

This cosmetics-selling company was one of her current sources of income, specially registered with Young Master Hai’s help.

She’d asked the dorm leader to film the commercials as one of the projects she’d instructed Young Master Hai to set up over the phone that day.

After all, the dorm leader’s change was obvious; the ad effect was guaranteed to be great.

Facts proved her eye was razor sharp. The dorm leader, as spokesperson, had done way better than expected, and her pills had blown up outside the campus too.

Right now, when Ding Yu saw the dorm leader actually run over to discuss things with Qin Xin, she felt a faint sense that something was off.

By the time the dorm leader came bouncing back, that unease only grew stronger.

Then she heard the dorm leader happily announce: ”The Ten-Complete Great Replenishing Pill is developed by my Sister Xin’s company. Sister Xin is my boss. Classmates who buy pills get a ten percent discount, that’s the deal—welcome, everyone! But it’s cash only; we don’t accept any random poisonous ointments in trade. That stuff isn’t even worthy to polish my Sister Xin’s shoes!”

As she spoke, she shot Ding Yu a meaningful glare.
