"Wooooosh—"
The warm air from the hair dryer dispersed the moisture and blew away the fog on the mirror. Cheng Qiuqiu wiped a small patch clear with her palm, revealing her cool, beautiful face still carrying a trace of sleepiness.
Her orange-brown, slightly curled long hair became fluffy and soft under the hot air.
Her hair strands still exuded the sweet, fruity scent of shampoo.
