Chapter 290: 284 Astonishing Effect

“Oh, one more thing: it’s probably a good idea for both of you to sleep in the same room tonight. Otherwise, you’ll get quite the shock when you see yourselves tomorrow. Consider this a heads-up,” Finn said with a grin.

“Huh?” Sarah was momentarily taken aback, unclear as to what Finn meant by his words. Kay was also confused, so Finn clarified with a laugh: “Surely, you don’t think the food was what attracted all those people, do you? Granted, none of the dishes can be purchased anywhere else in the world, but they’re by no means the main attraction. It’s the tea at the end that’s the real gem, a rarity in this world.”

“Huh?” Sarah was still confused.

“Never mind, you’ll understand by tomorrow morning,” Finn said, laughing again.

Finn himself had also drunk the tea, but he wasn’t too worried. His body had been transformed by an elixir, removing all kinds of impurities and hidden ailments. Even the ones not entirely removed wouldn’t be affected by the tea.

But for ordinary people, even young women like Kay and Sarah, there were lots of bodily impurities. The initial effects of the Cloud Mist tea were quite pronounced.

After seeing both women home, Finn didn’t explain what was happening. Even if he had, they probably wouldn’t have believed him. Moreover, the tea worked best when one rested auietlv and calmlv.

Returning to Kay’s house, both ladies were a little confused, but they decided to stick together since Finn suggested it. After all, it’s normal for girls to share a bed. If it were two grown men… well, let’s not go there, Finn thought, flinching at the mental image.

At first, Sarah and Kay discussed the implications of Finn’s words, but soon they drifted off to other topics. It cannot be overstated how swiftly women can change the subject. They didn’t stay up late, though, and soon fell asleep.

Many in the city followed suit, staying up much later than usual.

Kay was awoken by her ringing phone. Groggily picking it up, she saw an unfamiliar number calling. Just as Kay was about to answer it, she noticed that a person covered in brown spots was lying next to her.

Kay let out a scream. At her scream, the person – covered in brown spots sleepily opened her eyes. It was then that Sarah’s voice came through: “Kay, what’s happening?” Just as she finished speaking, Sarah noticed Kay’s appearance, her body completely covered in brown spots.

“Ah…” Sarah let out a high-pitched shriek. She stammered, pointing at Kay’s face, “Ka… Kay… what’s… on your body?”

“Ah…” Another scream echoed as Kay also saw her own body, identical to Sarah’s: covered in brown spots. Instinctively, Kay tried to wipe some spots off her arm, and a greasy sensation greeted her fingers. The spots came off quite easily, revealing unblemished skin beneath.

Upon discovering that the spots could be wiped off, they both let out sighs of relief. It was then that Sarah recalled Finn’s words from the previous night, “Could… could this be a result of the tea we drank?” she stammered.

“I need to take a shower! What is this smell?!” Both Kay and Sarah were now aware of an unpleasant odor. Kay jumped out of bed, disregarding the cause of these strange occurrences.

Not to be outdone, Sarah also followed suit. They didn’t bother taking turns but went into the bathroom together to scrub vigorously. The brown spots weren’t easily removed, giving the impression of a year’s worth of accumulated grime. Of course, that was it.

After they got all the dirt off their skin, both were utterly astonished.

“This… this… this is… it’s… amazing!” stammered Sarah.

Kay’s bathroom had a large mirror, which revealed the shocking transformation. Even before, neither of them had bad skin, but it wasn’t exactly great, either. Now, their skin was rosy under the whiteness, incredibly delicate and smooth, almost like a baby’s skin, even without lotion. It wasn’t the unnatural paleness often seen on celebrities but a healthy fairness, best described as lustrous.

Moreover, after their baths, Sarah could feel a strange energy coursing through her body. It was the kind of feeling one gets after a good night’s sleep, rejuvenating and refreshing, as if the very air they were breathing was clearer than before.

“You should answer your phone; it’s been ringing non-stop since we started bathing. I bet it’s someone who attended last night’s gathering,” said Sarah. While they had been bathing, the persistent ringing of Kay’s phone hadn’t gone unnoticed. But naturally, they weren’t going to answer it immediately, for nothing was more important to them than their skin transformation at that moment.

“Alright, I’ll go answer it,” agreed Kay, still somewhat in shock. She swiftly dried herself off with a towel and went out, still draped in it.

Heading towards her bed, she found her phone still ringing persistently. She quickly answered it and found a middle-aged man with an imposing voice on the other end, “May I speak with Ms. Kay Lee?”

“Yes, this is she. May I ask who’s calling?” Kay replied.

“This is Autumn Zenith from Fortune Sea Mining,” the man responded cheerfully. Kay’s hand trembled slightly. Who was Autumn Zenith? You could ask ninety-nine percent of celebrities, and they likely wouldn’t have heard of him, seeing as he hardly mingled in their circle..
