Chapter 204 The Big Dog
Chapter 204 The Big Dog
The white wig was removed, revealing her own long, black hair underneath.
The assistant held a towel soaked in warm water and gently wiped Wu Hai's face. The warm water slowly dissolved the glue on his face, and the originally tight-fitting disguise gradually loosened.
A piece of gel-like material was removed.
Bai Li stared intently at the scene, and suddenly realized what was going on.
It turned out to be the case.
Wu Hai did not wear a mask or a human skin mask, but rather used this gel material to reshape his facial features and face shape.
These gel materials are more sophisticated in their shaping, able to conform to every facial contour, subtly altering the height of the brow bone, the width of the nose bridge, and the curvature of the cheeks, making them much more natural than ordinary masks.
Only with professional makeup skills can one achieve a complete transformation like Wu Hai.
Bai Li pondered to herself:
It must take a long time to change clothes like this each time, right?
Applying, gluing, sculpting, applying makeup...
Moreover, it definitely requires extremely high makeup skills, which is something that not just anyone can do.
It's the kind of technology that H country would definitely apply for UNESCO World Heritage status for if it were learned from it.
Wu Hai opened his eyes a crack, glanced at Bai Li leaning closer beside him, and with a slight chuckle, asked teasingly, "What? Are you curious?"
At this moment, Wu Hai's disguise was completely removed, revealing his superior facial features.
The assistant, holding the makeup remover, continued to carefully remove the remaining makeup from Wu Hai's face. As the last trace of makeup was wiped away, Wu Hai's stunningly beautiful face was revealed to Bai Li without reservation.
A face rated 99 out of 100 by the system for attractiveness—it's no exaggeration to call him a "face genius."
Even without makeup, she is still exquisite and beautiful.
Compared to when she was wearing Sheldon's face, Bai Li found it much more pleasing to the eye and unconsciously became more amiable, asking softly, "Did you draw this yourself?"
Wu Hai nodded and said, "I don't accept apprentices."
He remained calm and did not appear to be complacent about it.
In fact, he studied art from a young age and has an extremely keen perception of color and form. If he can draw, he can naturally also do makeup.
But this is just the least remarkable of his many skills.
"I don't want to learn that," Bai Li pouted.
……
Outside the car window, the scenery flashed by.
The familiar cityscape has vanished, and as far as the eye can see, there is almost nothing but lush green wilderness.
The same scenery made Bai Li yawn sleepily.
Although she had caught up on sleep on the plane, she still felt extremely tired due to jet lag. If she hadn't been in the car in Wuhai, she probably would have fallen asleep already.
Looking out the window, Bai Li casually asked, "Where are we?"
Upon hearing Bai Li's question, Wu Hai did not answer immediately.
Bai Li's forced sobriety stirred something in Wu Hai's heart.
When she first saw herself, she wanted nothing more than to run away immediately.
Now, after her relentless efforts over this period, she not only no longer resists, but can even fall asleep in front of me without any restraint.
Upon realizing this, Wu Hai couldn't help but feel a surge of joy.
Wu Hai glanced at the view outside the window.
All that could be seen was a familiar lawn stretching endlessly, with huge green carpets pieced together, and neatly trimmed trees scattered throughout.
Wu Hai withdrew his gaze, a smile playing on his lips, and said to Bai Li, "We've arrived at the manor, little pear, hang in there a little longer."
Bai Li immediately felt awake.
She slightly widened her eyes and looked out the window again.
I was too sleepy just now, so I didn't notice.
But upon closer inspection, this lawn is so flat that there is almost no undulation, which means it is not naturally grown and must be regularly maintained by someone.
In addition, there are those trees that have been properly trimmed.
So, all the places we passed along the way were manors in Wuhai?
Oh my god.
The moment this thought crossed Bai Li's mind, she was greatly shocked.
So big?
Originally, Bai Li thought that Wu Hai's manor was similar to Jiang Yang Lin's, just a few grand houses with a few neatly trimmed lawns.
But the vast lawn stretching as far as the eye could see completely overturned her perception.
This place in Wuhai can no longer be called a manor, can it?
It should be a grassland...
This boundless grassland gave Bai Li a new understanding of the wealth of Wuhai.
"What a scoundrel!" Bai Li couldn't help but mutter to herself.
At this moment, she finally understood why the heroines in those romance novels who were imprisoned by the CEO found it so difficult to escape his grasp.
If they were captured and taken to Wuhai's territory, without any means of transportation, it would indeed be very difficult to escape on foot.
Within a radius of more than ten kilometers, the view is wide open and almost unobstructed.
After the vehicle drove smoothly for a few more minutes, Bai Li finally saw the cluster of buildings.
The buildings are all in an American style, and the stone on the exterior walls has a restrained luster under the sunlight.
Since this was Bai Li's first visit, the driver slowed down, and Sheldon, who was standing next to her, took the opportunity to speak up and patiently introduce the place to her.
As Bai Li listened to Sheldon's introduction, she became even more amazed.
It's less of a manor and more like a small town.
The surrounding buildings house the servants' quarters, and there are also some commercial facilities.
However, these facilities are only open to the Wu family's servants; outsiders have no way to enter.
The entire complex inside belongs to Wuhai, that big dog.
Golf courses, helipads, artificial lakes, forest trails, rose gardens, olive groves, private museums, horse farms, wildlife sanctuaries, private hospitals and clinics, underground shelters...
Sheldon gave only a brief introduction before launching into a long and detailed explanation, seemingly unable to finish in a short time.
Even more outrageous is that this "manor" even has its own independent energy and water supply facilities, enabling it to be self-sufficient.
Even if the end of the world comes, you won't have to worry about power outages or water shortages.
In fact, this place not only has independent power and water sources, but also underground shelters.
Moreover, throughout the estate, well-trained security personnel patrolled frequently.
If the end of the world really comes, I guess I could live quite comfortably here...
Just as Bai Li's thoughts began to wander.
Wu Hai waved to Sheldon to stop his introduction, and smiled, saying, "Little Pear, I'll show you around and explain things to you later."
Bai Li couldn't help but ask, "Your estate?"
Wu Hai nodded again in confirmation, smiling broadly: "Yes, it's mine."
After saying that, he tilted his head and asked Bai Li, "What's wrong, Little Pear?"
Bai Li initially thought this place was very likely the Wu family's manor.
If the Wu family has a large number of members, and everyone lives here, then this size is normal.
But this manor turned out to be a private manor in Wuhai.
—Exclusively owned by an individual.
This massive complex is designed to serve only one person, Wuhai.
Seemingly worried that Bai Li might not be satisfied, Wu Hai added, "This is just one of my places. If Little Pear isn't satisfied, I can take you to other places."
Bai Li's lips twitched: "No need."
Although she didn't show any particular surprise on her face, she was already cursing inwardly:
Down with evil capitalism!
"You rich bastard!"
"Damn North American tycoons!"
……
I thought I had seen enough, but it turns out it still wasn't enough.
No wonder, when Wu Hai came to my house, his first comment was, "This house is very ordinary."
Bai Li couldn't empathize with Wuhai back then, but now that she has witnessed Wuhai's immense wealth, she finally understands.
Compared to the manor in Wuhai, his own place was indeed a "small, dilapidated house".
She suddenly remembered her manor.
Besides attending the Apollo Awards ceremony, another purpose of my trip to Country A was to visit my estate there.
After being pulled out of the Wanxiang Wheel, I hadn't yet gone to "inspect" it in person.
Now that she has seen the manor in Wuhai, she has begun to feel a sense of anticipation.
What would my own estate be like?
Bai Li had a premonition.
In the style that Wanxianglun always does...
It's probably not that simple.
