Rose Dance Dress

However, upon closer inspection, Ye Qingyun only had himself to blame. After all, he was the one who had created such an alluring character. The system, too, assigned identities based on the character’s attributes. It seemed that beautiful women, since ancient times, were rarely ordinary individuals. Moreover, when Ye Qingyun created the character, whether intentionally or not, he infused it with an enchanting, almost otherworldly aura. This was precisely how the current Ye Qingrou came to be.

Rumor Channel:

“Damn it, what the hell? Who is this Ye Qingrou? She actually got a special identity! She must be a real beauty. I really want to see her.”

“I, for one, want to meet this beauty and see just how stunning she truly is.”

The discussions on the Rumor Channel were endless, yet no one currently knew Ye Qingyun.

As the second player to receive a global announcement, Ye Qingyun was undoubtedly the subject of immense attention.

Meanwhile, at Fantasy International Headquarters in The Capital.

Jiang Mofeng removed his helmet and instructed a staff member. “Who is this Ye Qingrou? Look her up quickly. Even though it’s just a special identity, it’s better to keep an eye on her.”

“Yes, Young Master.” The staff member immediately nodded in agreement.

They quickly pulled up Ye Qingyun’s identity. However, the results presented a dilemma for the investigator, as there were too many individuals named Ye Qingyun—both male and female.

Even excluding males, over a hundred girls shared the name.

“Uh, Young Master, this is difficult to investigate. There are over a hundred players named Ye Qingyun,” the staff member said, a look of distress on their face.

Hearing this, Jiang Mofeng could only shake his head. There was simply nothing to be done.

There were too many people in Huaxia, and consequently, too many shared names.

Meanwhile, at Ye Qingyun’s location, Li Yulian had already given him a new makeup look. In the mirror, Ye Qingyun was utterly transformed into a captivating enchantress, exuding a hint of dangerous allure.

His blood-red lips, eyeliner, and eyeshadow all contributed to an exotic, almost demonic appearance, complemented by a beautiful crimson floral pattern adorning his forehead.

Li Yulian gazed at Ye Qingyun in the mirror, her praises unending. “Excellent, simply stunning! Qingrou, I guarantee this year’s Flower Queen will be none other than you. From now on, your signature look will be one of bewitching charm!”

Ye Qingyun, however, was in a state of stunned disbelief. Originally, he had black eyes, but having suddenly acquired this unique talent, the system had also subtly altered Li Yulian’s memories regarding his appearance.

Ye Qingyun looked at his reflection, a sigh escaping his lips. ‘Beautiful, yes, but far too enchanting, almost demonic.’

And that wasn’t all. Li Yulian quickly retrieved a set of golden-red clothes from a chest. The garment shimmered with a radiant crimson hue, crafted from delicate, translucent gauze.

“Alright, put this on. This is the Rose Dancer’s Garb, made from snow silkworm silk. I had someone specially tailor it for you,” Li Yulian said, handing the clothes to Ye Qingyun.

Ye Qingyun felt a touch of helplessness as he took the clothes and entered the changing room. However, upon putting on the garment, Ye Qingyun suddenly found it rather familiar.

“Eh? Isn’t this… an outfit I designed?” Ye Qingyun’s face registered complete astonishment.

Indeed, the Rose Dancer’s Garb was an outfit he had created. It was an unexpected twist that his own character had acquired something he himself had designed.

As he unfolded the garment, it felt incredibly light and soft. Intricate patterns adorned its surface, making it exceptionally beautiful. From Ye Qingyun’s aesthetic perspective, this outfit was undoubtedly a masterpiece of high-quality craftsmanship.

However, Ye Qingyun felt a slight blush of embarrassment. While the dress was undeniably beautiful, it was simply too light. The slightest breeze would cause it to flutter delicately.

If he had known he would be the one wearing it, he would have made some adjustments during the design phase. It gave the impression of wearing almost nothing, possessing an ethereal grace that was perhaps a little too ethereal.

“Isn’t this a bit too much?” Ye Qingyun gazed at his dramatically transformed self, momentarily speechless. He could only describe it as perfect.

However, while he was lost in thought, Li Yulian’s voice reached his ears.

“Are you done yet? If you are, come out quickly! There’s still so much you need to learn,” Li Yulian called out.

Ye Qingyun let out an embarrassed sigh and then stepped out of the changing room.

The moment he emerged, Li Yulian was utterly dumbfounded. Her eyes remained fixed on Ye Qingyun for a long time, unable to tear away.

However, women possessed a certain immunity to such sights, and she quickly regained her composure.

“Perfect! Absolutely perfect! Even I, a woman, am captivated! Haha, Qingrou, you are undoubtedly Li Yulian’s proudest masterpiece in this lifetime. Come, let’s begin your lessons: voice, gait, demeanor, and gestures!” Li Yulian exclaimed.

Ye Qingyun nodded, and thus began his rigorous training.

Why was he learning voice, gait, demeanor, and gestures? These elements were highly refined. Ancient etiquette for women was extremely strict, encompassing multiple styles and forms.

Having worked in the pleasure quarter for so many years, Li Yulian knew everything about women like the back of her hand. She had encountered countless women.

First came voice training. Li Yulian instructed Ye Qingyun to produce a voice that was both gentle and subtly sharp. This particular way of speaking would create a sound akin to wind chimes—an ethereal resonance, like an echo from the void.

Although Ye Qingyun personally felt some resistance to these lessons, his body absorbed the training without the slightest hesitation.

Thus, Ye Qingyun spent half a month in the game world. This fortnight was a ceaseless cycle of performances and training.

Ever since receiving the title of “Rose Fairy,” Ye Qingyun’s daily performances had seen an explosive surge in popularity. Even other players had discovered Ye Qingyun’s existence.

The Rumor Channel in The Capital buzzed daily with discussions about him, and everyone knew of the Rose Fairy residing in Sweetwater Lane.

That evening, Ye Qingyun removed his virtual reality helmet, feeling utterly exhausted. Prolonged gaming sessions invariably drained one’s energy.

Ye Qingyun lamented, “Gods above, this isn’t a game at all; it’s practically another world!”

He stood up, stretched a little, then opened his computer and checked the official website. However, what he saw left Ye Qingyun utterly dumbfounded.

The official forum was filled with numerous in-game photos of him, along with videos of his performances in Sweetwater Lane. It turned out the game had a video recording function.

During his daily performances, Ye Qingyun hadn’t felt particularly captivating, but seeing himself now, a wave of shame washed over his face.

“Damn it, which bastard took these?” Ye Qingyun couldn’t help but curse. ‘Wasn’t this just pushing him into a fiery pit?’

Yet, there was nothing he could do. This was beyond his control. The crucial point was that as soon as these videos appeared, this character suddenly gained countless fans, both male and female.

“Haha, this is my goddess! She is the Rose Fairy, the top courtesan of Sweetwater Lane in The Capital’s pleasure quarter of the Song Kingdom!”

Someone had released Ye Qingyun’s information. It was clear this person was from the same region as Ye Qingyun and had definitely visited Sweetwater Lane to watch his performances.

If Ye Qingyun were a woman, he might have been incredibly proud at this moment. The critical fact, however, was that Ye Qingyun was not a woman; he was merely playing a cross-dressing character.

This made the situation extremely awkward.

Knock, knock, knock! “Hey, Number Four, are you there?”

Just as Ye Qingyun was feeling thoroughly awkward, Qin Yun’s voice suddenly rang out from outside the door.

The sudden shout startled him. Ye Qingyun quickly closed the video and went to open the door.

“What is it?” Ye Qingyun asked, a puzzled expression on his face.

Qin Yun entered, regarding Ye Qingyun with a peculiar look. He couldn’t tell what he was looking at, but his gaze made him uncomfortable, as if he were being scrutinized.

“Hey, don’t look at me like that; you’re giving me the creeps. Just tell me what you want quickly,” Ye Qingyun urged.
