Help! The Villainess Trapped in the Beast World's Drama!

Chapter 333: Chapter 325: The New King’s Coronation

Xiao Jin was bored and started pointing and picking at everything.

”If you don’t understand, just shut up, you stinky leopard! You’re a leopard, not a sparrow!” Shen Tang’s ears were buzzing. If it weren’t for the inconvenience of wearing her formal dress, she would have kicked him.

Shen Li glanced at him with fox-like eyes, smiling faintly, ”Oh? Displeased with my work? How about you give it a try then?”

”Heh, if you insist, I’ll do it!” Xiao Jin rolled up his sleeves and grabbed the tools from Shen Li’s hands, feeling restless with anticipation, as he’d been waiting for this offer.

Shen Li’s fox eyes widened, finally realizing he’d been tricked!

Shen Tang was stunned to see Xiao Jin personally doing her makeup. She turned to flee, but was caught and firmly pressed back into her seat. He even turned her around to face away from the mirror.

He gripped her face with seriousness, ”Don’t move! I’m being serious now.”

”...” Not daring to move! She couldn’t move at all!

Xiao Jin found that what seemed so simple when Shen Li did it was challenging to accomplish himself; there were several tools he didn’t even recognize.

However, there was one thing he recognized: a box of blush, bright red, perfect for adding color!

With abandon, he swiped a ton of it and applied two large patches of blush on Shen Tang’s face.

He raised his eyebrows, quite pleased, seeing her cheeks as red as apples, how healthy and delightful!

Xiao Jin then picked up the brightest lipstick and applied it on her.

Seeing Shen Tang with makeup looking like a monkey’s bottom, Shen Li and Jia Lan couldn’t hold back their laughter, leaning against the wall, their stomachs hurting from laughing.

”Stupid leopard, are you an undercover agent sent by an enemy nation, trying to make Tangtang incapable of showing her face tomorrow! Become the people’s laughing stock!”

”...” Lu Xiao and Xue Yinzhou couldn’t help but chuckle, turning away, suppressing their grins.

Embarrassed and angry, Xiao Jin glared at them, attempting to save face, ”Tangtang, don’t listen to their nonsense, they’re just jealous!”

Seeing the reaction from her Beast Husbands, Shen Tang felt uneasy, and definitely didn’t believe the stinky leopard! She hurriedly tried to escape, but as she did, the lipstick smudged across her mouth.

Shen Tang wanted to cry but had no tears, quickly turning to look in the mirror, veins pulsing on her forehead!

She looked more like she was headed to a circus performance than a coronation ceremony!

Feeling guilty, Xiao Jin touched his nose, ”Doesn’t it look pretty good? All red and festive.”

Fortunately, Shen Tang didn’t need to act. Xue Yinzhou couldn’t hold back and smacked Xiao Jin on the rear with his tail, coldly saying, ”Get out of the way, don’t cause trouble.”

Grumbling, Xiao Jin dared not retaliate, feeling defeated this time.

In the end, Jia Lan brought over a basin and towel to wash off Shen Tang’s visible face and redid her makeup. Shen Li’s craft was impeccable, within moments transforming Shen Tang into an elegant and classic beauty, her complexion vibrant and healthy, evoking a sense of peace and prosperity.

Lu Xiao patiently smoothed Shen Tang’s slightly chaotic and messy hair, styling it into a formal and graceful arrangement.

Alongside the usual grace and delicate beauty she possessed akin to a fresh lotus, she now possessed a regal and solemn dignity befitting a King.

The man’s striking features, with a defined jawline, and slender, broad, and slightly calloused hands, different from the pampered sons of aristocratic families, gave off an unattainable and aloof feeling. Surprisingly, his touch was gentle and meticulous, a stark contrast to his demeanor. Shen Tang didn’t expect him to be so adept at braiding hair.

Surprised, she asks, ”You can braid hair too?”

Lu Xiao respectfully answered, ”It’s something I studied in the course of serving the Female Master.”

A top-notch graduate, no doubt.

Jia Lan prepared the jewelry, an array of dazzling pieces made from precious gems bright enough to blind, with the most striking being a necklace of lustrous and perfectly round pearls, an exquisite piece that highlighted her creamy jade-like neck.

Jia Lan looked at the necklace on her neck, his earlobes were slightly red, yet he hid it well.

Xiao Jin polished the crown until it gleamed brilliantly, carefully setting it in Shen Tang’s hair, with none of his usual recklessness, his actions particularly gentle, the gaze towards his female companion brimming with deep love.

After bustling about in the room with six people for a while, the sky gradually brightened.

An attendant entered to remind them, ”Your Highness, it’s time for us to set off towards the hall.”

...

The day the new king ascended was a rare fine day in winter.

Clear skies and bright sunshine.

It seemed even the Heavenly God favored her.

On that day, citizens put down their work, flocking in droves, the streets were deserted, all to witness the new king’s coronation ceremony.

”Look up in the sky!”

”Wow, so beautiful!”

”The person seated in the golden carriage must be the new King, Your Majesty!”

”Ahhhhh, I’m so excited, I’m going to faint!”

The resonant cries rang through the air, formally beginning the celebration, while people on the ground gazed upwards in amazement.

Hundreds of brightly colored birds stretched their elegant forms, pulling a magnificent carriage that rose from the hall and circled the Imperial City ten times.

Wherever they flew, a spectacular ray of colors trailed through the sky, like a flowing neon light, dazzlingly brilliant.

Simultaneously, countless flower petals sprinkled down from the sky, covering the people below.

”Roar!”

”Awooooo—”

Many Beastmen couldn’t contain their excitement, spontaneously transforming and emitting joyous calls, chasing after the streak of colors running through the city.

In an instant, birds soared through the sky, beasts charged forth, and the entire city erupted.

The nation celebrated, the atmosphere of the festival reached its peak.

Lu Xiao, Xiao Jin, Shen Li, Jia Lan, and Xue Yinzhou led the procession through the city.

They too wore grand attire, ready to head to the hall where it all began and would end to receive the Monarch.

Lu Xiao stood at the forefront of the group, tall and upright, wearing a cloak intertwined with navy blue and red, which highlighted his well-proportioned physique. The cloak draped over his shoulders, where gold tassels swayed with each step, and the badge on his chest gleamed under the light. He appeared as a drawn sword, exuding a sense of unyielding holiness.

On his left followed a young man with an extraordinarily beautiful face, his features were enchantingly exotic, especially those sapphire-blue eyes, sparkling like glazed ceramic under the sunlight.

Jia Lan wore a platinum suit, outlining his slender waist and long legs, with intricate patterns of gold stretching from shoulders to hem. The cuffs layered with ornate ruffles, lace, and pearls reflected the sunlight with a subtle shimmer.

He was like a prince stepping out of a classical painting, too dazzling to look at directly.

Even the usually rough Xiao Jin wore a proper suit today, with a white shirt underneath, a neat bow tie at the collar, and a bright red boutonniere on his chest, making him even more handsome.

His features were striking and attractive; he occasionally looked up at the sky, a barely contained excited smile gracing his lips, exuding youthful vigor and grandeur.

A gun was also strapped to his waist as a precaution against unexpected occurrences.
