Time flies like a white horse passing through a crevice, I remain as beautiful and unparalleled as ever.

  The day of discharge was sunny, Tian Tian breathed in the foreign air for the first time. She wore a white-based blue small floral suspender skirt, sat on an extended Lincoln, opened the window, and saw the high-rise buildings with different styles from her hometown on both sides of the street, blonde-haired and blue-eyed French people were talking and laughing, adjusting their emotions, walking slowly on the road, leisurely and carefree.

  The sunshine is exceptionally good, with white clouds stretching freely in the sky and moving slowly. The sunlight sprinkles on my face, a different kind of tenderness.

  "This is Paris." she couldn't help but sigh.

  Tian Junfeng beside him murmured "Hmm", "Do you like it?"

  "I like it, very comfortable." She stretched out her slender fingers, spread them apart, and touched the lovely sunlight. "Where is our home?" she asked.

  "On the Champs-élysées, where it's close to the Seine River, Dad will take you boating on the Seine River another day."

  "Uh-huh," Tian Tian nodded happily.

  Teng Shu played a soft French song, and instantly the romantic atmosphere of Paris became even more intense. Tian Tian also closed her eyes and took a short rest.

  When they arrived at the villa, Tian Tian was already fast asleep, her long eyelashes drooping down, looking very gentle and lovely, much more adorable than when she was awake. Tian Junfeng carried her weak and fragile body to the room, her protruding bones still digging into him, this child was so thin, it was unknown how much suffering she had endured. From now on, he must raise her to be a little chubby pig.

  He gently kissed Tian Tian's small face, covered her with a quilt. Although the company has grown big enough, there are still many things to be solved. The truth that it is hard to stay at the top is right there. The higher you climb, the more competitors you have, and the stronger they get. He rubbed his temples, reminded Uncle Tian to take good care of Tian Tian, then walked out of the house door.

  When Tian Tian woke up, it was already afternoon. After finishing the meal prepared by Uncle Tun, she excused herself to go for a walk and breathe in some fresh air before leaving home.

  She walked alone on the road, as always, thinking of that handsome young man. He was also in this city, breathing the same air as her, walking on any street in Paris, sipping coffee in any café, staring blankly at the busy people outside the window, soothing his worries. I wonder, is he okay now?

  "Miss?!" Just as she was lost in thought, a car screeched to a halt in front of her. The person inside rolled down the window, revealing a man with white skin, blue eyes, and blond hair. He smiled at her, showing off his neat, pearly whites.

  "Who are you?" Tian Tian asked in English, her eyes fixed on the man before her who was not handsome but had a refreshing and capable air about him.

  "Are you Chinese?" the man asked tentatively.

  Tian nodded, "Yes, may I ask, is there something?"

  The man took out a magazine from the car and handed it to Tian Tian, pointing at several golden English words on the cover and asked, "Do you know this magazine? It's published by Pure Company, the most famous in French fashion industry. It leads the trend of the whole France and even the world."

  Tian Tian shook her head, "I don't know."

  The man's forehead dripped with a cold sweat, "Alright..." Then, he smiled elegantly and said, "Hello, my name is Jone, I'm the General Manager of Women's Wear at Pure Company."

  "Hello." Tian Tian bowed slightly and smiled politely, "You called me, is there something I can help you with?"

  Jone rubbed his head, saying anxiously, "Tonight the company is hosting a grand fashion show, but this year's main 'Purple Enchantress' costume hasn't found a suitable model to perform it. When I saw your black hair and eyes and the mysterious charm of an Eastern woman emanating from you, I decided that you would be the one to bring this myth to life."

  "What if I don't want to?" Tian Tian asked lightly.

  "If you perform well, you can become famous overnight." Jone explained that he couldn't understand why this girl wouldn't seize such a good opportunity to make a name for herself.

  "I want to say sorry to you, I don't want to be angry." Tian Tian bowed her head, blinked her eyes, "Sorry." After finishing speaking, she continued to walk slowly forward.

  "Don't you want to make your parents proud of you? Don't you want the man you love to bow down for you? Don't you hope to wear the most dazzling clothes and drive the whole world crazy for you? Enjoy being a queen once, I believe you'll like it." Jone shouted behind her, trying to persuade.

  Tian Tian stopped in her tracks, she gently turned around, the floral suspender skirt fluttering with her turn into a giant lily, long ponytail neatly draped behind her head, black and shiny. Jone's eyes lit up for a moment, instantly, he was more determined about his choice.

  The girl's eyes were somewhat hollow, she bit her rosy small lips, slightly tilted her head, and said with some concern, "But I'm only 165cm."

  "Don't worry! I'll take care of this." Jone said confidently and immediately drove the car up to her.

  "I stand on the stage, everyone in Paris will see me, right?"

  "It's not just Paris! At that time, you were the focus of the whole world!"

  Tian nodded, "Then I'll go with you."

  "Get in, dear miss." As he spoke, Jone opened the car door and welcomed Tian Tian in.

  If she stood on the T-stage, wouldn't her Xiao Cheng see her and know that she had arrived in Paris, know that she hadn't left him, and know that they were in the same city? Wouldn't her Xiao Cheng then run to her side and tell her that he loved her and wouldn't leave her again? As she thought about it, tears began to well up in her eyes. Xiao Cheng, Xiao Cheng, if you stood before me in this way, would you love me even more?

  Pure Mansion

  Jone directly took her to the dressing room, completely ignoring those flattering voices. He settled Tian Tian into a seat and said, "What's your name?"

  "I don't have an English name," Tian Tian said.

  Jone thought for a few seconds, "Mona, from now on, you'll be called Mona."

  Tian nodded, "I remember."

  "I'll make you up myself," Jone said, and then he shrugged his shoulders, "I really don't believe in those makeup artists' skills!"

  Tian Tian smiled and said, "Your meaning is, your skills are better than all of them."

  Jone nodded and said while picking up a powder puff to start making up Tian Tian, "Have I ever told you how beautiful you are?"

  "Not yet." Tian Tian said with a smile.

  "Close your eyes," Jone said gently, "Now, I'm going to compliment you. You're really beautiful, the most charming Eastern girl I've ever seen, very spiritual, just like... an angel from a foreign land."

  "Hey... Brother Jone, who is this girl?" A sharp yet sweet female voice floated into Tian Tian's ears. She opened her eyes and looked at the voluptuous woman with golden wavy hair and lips that curved up into a charming smile like blood-red flowers. The woman smiled at Jone and her hand ambiguously touched his shoulder.

  "Aren't you going to prepare for your own show, Marry? You're also one of the main characters tonight!" Jone raised an eyebrow and said.

  "Come on, I've been through so many scenes already, can't I make a mistake? But this girl, with such a short stature..." Marry crossed her arms, looking at Tian Tian with disdain. Marry's height was at least 178cm, and she could almost look down on Tian Tian. "Why haven't I seen her before? Is she also the main character?"

  “She is my newly discovered model and also tonight's protagonist.”

  "How could you let a newcomer take on such an important show, Jone! What if she messes it up!" Marry glared at Jone with wide eyes, furious. "When did your standards become so low? You're actually considering someone as short as her, and that face is barely passable!"

  "Marry, have you had enough?" Jone was somewhat impatient, "If you've had enough, then go prepare yours."

  "Hey! You're not usually like this with me! After all, I'm also a top model of Pure Company!"

  "A top model?" Jone sneered, "If I hadn't saved you from your stepfather's daily beatings back then, would you have achieved what you are today? Marry, let bygones be bygones, don't be so petty. Since I can make you a top model, naturally I can also bring you down from this position!"

  "You...!" The finger pointing at Jone trembled, then pointed at Tian Tian, "You wait for me, you'll be sorry!" After saying that, he angrily flung his hand and left.

  Jiang still expressionlessly helped Tian Tian with her makeup, "Don't take her words to heart, when someone becomes famous, it's hard to avoid being arrogant."

  Tian nodded and said calmly, "Mm, okay."

  "What's wrong with your wrist?" Jone asked gently, holding her hand and looking at the bandage on it.

  Tian Tian also took a glance and said with some concern, "This, will it affect the appearance?"

  Jone smiled slightly and said softly, "No." Then, he took out a pair of black gloves with purple edges and put them on Tian Tian. The gloves reached up to her elbows, unfolding into a resplendent mandala flower. The purple edges mixed with the black lace, creating an unusual and charming effect that made her skin look even whiter. Jone said, "This outfit is mainly in noble purple, with black as a secondary color, combining British style with Chinese elements."

  "Will I be suitable?" Tian Tian asked nervously.

  "I believe in my vision, and I ask you to believe too." Jone said firmly.

  Two hours later, Jone had finished making up Tian's makeup and hairdo. He stood satisfactorily on one side, admiring the noble and beautiful fairy in front of him.

  Her hair was pulled back, not a single strand out of place, with a large purple swallowtail flower hairpin on the left side, looking fresh and noble. Her eyebrows were painted in the latest popular flat eyebrow style, with a hint of boldness and elegance, her eyes had a layer of black eyeshadow that gradually changed to light purple towards the outer corner and then deepened into dark purple.

  Jone deepened the color of the small red mole under her eye, making it even more vivid and bright. Her nose bridge was more prominent, and her small, delicate lips were painted with a light purple lip color, while her perfect chin was rounded off in an elegant arc below her mouth.

  "Ah! I almost forgot!" Jone patted his head, pulled out a delicate small box from his pocket, opened it and placed it in front of Tian Tian. "This is the earring that I specially customized for this outfit, and today I happened to run into you on my way back with the earrings." As he spoke, he put the silver earring with a string of small flowers and diamonds embedded in the center onto Tian Tian's ears. Afterwards, he shook his head in admiration, "So beautiful, so beautiful!"
