Just when Liu Haiping and Mi Shu thought conflict was inevitable, Ms. Housekeeper suddenly stopped trembling and calmed down, averted her gaze, and continued her work. Skillfully, she took a small box from the wooden chest on the right side of the vanity and, after opening it, she applied a layer of white powder on Liu Haiping's face, turning her originally dull complexion ghostly pale.
Tong Han also knew not to push her luck and aimed not to provoke Ms. Housekeeper further. She moved away from her original spot, trying to keep a distance from the folding screen.
The room fell into an eerie silence. Everything earlier seemed to have dissipated like smoke. Soon after, the makeover was completed. Even though Tong Han was mentally prepared, the reflection of Liu Haiping's bizarre makeup in the mirror still startled her.
