Bai Ningning tilted her head: "You mean I'm very true to the character?"
"Eh, in this day and age of cosplay, as long as you wear the clothes and the wig, everyone's pretty much on the same level in terms of accuracy," Lingyin waved her hand, "Whether it looks like the character actually depends on one's own looks... Some characters also depend on body shape."
After all, two-dimensional characters are all beautiful, belonging to a transcendent level, so the prettier the coser, the closer they get.
Bai Ningning didn't quite understand this; she only heard Lingyin's praise of her.
Before her rebirth, every time she stood in a corner of a comic convention, watching those dazzling cosers in the venue, she couldn't help but feel a bit envious.
And now, she had become one of them. Although she was a girl... but thinking about it carefully, in this situation, it seemed like being a girl was even better?
Being reborn as a beautiful girl is truly amazing.
"Really very true to the character, except for looks and body," Lingyin pinched her chin, carefully assessing her from top to bottom, "This demeanor and aura really match the character's setting when she first appears."
The first character to appear, Rem, was a bit cold and emotionless, often using her sharp tongue to critique others alongside Ram.
Cold Bai Ningning was present, and a bit of the emotionless Bai Ningning was there too; as for the sharp tongue... Heh, considering that cute little cherry mouth, Bai Ningning hadn't even looked at anyone properly.
The only T0 in the current version.
"Shall we set off now?" Bai Ningning asked.
Lingyin stepped forward to pull her up, full of spirit: "Let's go!"
...
In the large square of Xicheng, since its construction decades ago, today marked its busiest day. The vast venue and scale, along with exceptionally cheap tickets, attracted a large crowd.
The members organized by the club had already arrived, gathering around the square to receive the items Lingyin bought yesterday.
For this event, Lingyin didn't give specific instructions based on Bai Ningning's perspective, allowing them to play freely, as long as they could gather enough video material.
Lingyin took Bai Ningning and joined her core subordinates.
"Boss, you're here."
"President, we've received the items and distributed them to everyone; many have already gone inside to have fun."
"Should we..."
A few people stepped forward to greet her, and just as they were saying a few words, their attention was drawn to the "Rem" behind Lingyin.
The anime character Rem had been popular for several years, and with the continuous sequels over the years, there were many at almost every comic convention. As seasoned fans of the two-dimensional world, everyone in the club had seen various versions of Rem, but this one, so beautiful and true to the character (referring to her figure), was the first they had encountered.
In an instant, everyone became a bit excited.
"Wow, President, where did you find her? She's amazing!"
"Ahhh, so cute, I'm stomping my feet!"
"President, where did you meet her? Hurry and introduce her, I'm in a rush!"
Amidst the excitement, a calm club member, recognizing her by her iconic figure, vaguely made a connection.
"I said, President, she wouldn't be our club's campus beauty, would she?"
"What, Bai Ningning?"
"No way, it really is."
"Sure enough, she's the campus beauty; no matter what character she plays, she's very true to it."
Their gazes became even more eager, while Bai Ningning remained expressionless, not saying a word.
"So accurate! Just like the character—totally emotionless!"
"It's an early version of the setting, sob sob, I'm tearing up."
"Clearly, you could rely on your looks and figure to make a living, yet you still work hard to restore the character, so dedicated."
Bai Ningning: "…..."
Actually, she was just a bit nervous and didn't know what to say. Speaking of which, if she said something at this moment, wouldn't it also be seen as restoring her sharp-tongued character?
"Alright, you guys, don't crowd around here, go do what you need to do," Aoying waved her hand, shooing away the gradually gathering crowd, "I've already instructed you, free activities, play however you want, just remember to take plenty of video material."
Saying this, she pulled Bai Ningning towards the venue.
YN said that even during group activities, it's best to create situations for solitude, so it's easier to get things done.
"Don't go, President," the club members lamented, "At least let us take a few pictures first."
"Yeah, exactly."
"If nothing else, at least give me a chance to say it," one club member mustered up the courage, "Rem, I love you!"
As soon as the words left his mouth, he suddenly felt a large hand slap his shoulder. Turning around, he saw Tian Ge, the well-known manager in the club, the most loyal assistant under President Aoying.
"Damn, Tian Ge, what's wrong?"
Tian Ge scanned the crowd with a fierce look, his voice deep: "Who the hell loves my sister-in-law?!"
...
Bai Ningning didn't know how many times Aoying had held her little hand; she didn't mind, as if it had become a natural occurrence.
On the way to the venue with Aoying, the gazes from all directions never ceased. Especially when they were queuing at the entrance, people around would occasionally glance over, never stopping.
Bai Ningning felt a bit nervous.
"You're going to be famous," Aoying whispered, "For sure."
She noticed a nearby person with a long camera and a host holding a microphone, the camera clicking towards Bai Ningning's direction. That was clearly a self-media outlet; although she didn't know which one, judging by the professionalism of the equipment, it should have a decent following.
Moreover, there wasn't just one self-media outlet nearby; she could see several others in different directions.
Bai Ningning's beautiful eyes moved slightly: "If I become famous, will our club also become famous?"
"It will, but…" Aoying lowered her voice, "If you don't like it, we can take a side path to a more secluded place, so they can't film us."
"It's fine," Bai Ningning smiled lightly, ":et them film. If someone interviews us later, just say we are members of the ACG club at Xicheng University."
She wasn't avoiding being photographed; she was just a bit nervous, after all, it was an experience she had never had before. In her previously ordinary life, she had never had the chance to be the main character.
And today, for the first time, Bai Ningning became the center of this small world, becoming the most dazzling one. While it couldn't be said that she was the focus of the crowd, there were at least dozens or hundreds of people around, and being watched by so many eyes made Bai Ningning… a little excited.
Becoming a beautiful girl is truly wonderful.
Aoying, however, felt differently; she didn't know Bai Ningning's inner thoughts, only seeing the girl's calm expression, her icy little face maintaining its composure, unaffected in the slightest.
No wonder she's the ice-cold beauty junior; she remains unflustered in any situation. Perhaps this is what professional players desire most—a big heart.
After checking the tickets, Aoying remembered something and pulled Bai Ningning, saying, "I know a place where the activities are really fun; I'll take you there now."
YN said that during a date, whether alone or not isn't important; what matters is creating intimate moments. Sometimes, if you can't do it yourself, let the people and environment around you help.
