Garden of Eden || Apocalypse Paradise #2 [Complete]

113: Lunar New Year Festivities, and It's None of Your Business

"Woooohoooo!"

A spell of explosive enthusiastic cheers rang out from the huge screen on the wall. Using some sort of technology, each of the listeners heard a realistic surround sound which made them feel as if they were really beside a crowd that was celebrating crazily.

Colors burst forth from the dark blue screen, basking the surroundings in dazzling hues while spotlights of all colors swayed over the pale faces shown on the screen.

Lin Sanjiu was sitting on a high chair, and her body was as stiff as a board. She couldn't move at all because her body had been tied tightly to the back of the chair with a black leather rope. The other women, who were brought to this place with her, were also in the same sitting posture. Even though their gags had been removed from their mouths, none of them said a word.

"Hello! the Garden of Eden residents!"

A petite and sweet-looking female host appeared on the screen. She was wearing a tight-fitting white dress and was smiling with her pouty red lips. "Once again, it is time for our Lunar New Year Specials! Don't you feel that everyone gets especially excited during this time!"

"Of course!" A male host appeared on the screen, walking in from the opposite side. He answered her with a clearly extremely scripted reply, "Apart from delicious food and fireworks, and visiting our families and friends, for us here in the Garden of Eden, the highlight for this entire month is about to start!

"This year, we're so lucky! For this grand occasion, we managed to invite various famous experts from the Garden of Eden to give their analyses and opinions..."

In contrast to the on-screen festive atmosphere, which seethed with enthusiasm, there was a deafening silence in the room where the women were held. The only sounds in the room were the rustling noise of the staff members' clothes as they worked.

Just then, a makeup brush covered with powder swept across Lin Sanjiu's cheeks a few times. "Raise your eyes and look upwards," a young woman spoke.

Lin Sanjiu gave a sidelong glance at the makeup artist beside her and did nothing.

"Oh, really. If you want to throw a tantrum, choose the right time!" The young female makeup artist with cropped hair was extremely unhappy, but there was nothing she could do. The makeup artist, who was wearing rubber gloves, could only unwillingly wipe away the concealer which covered the flora design under Lin Sanjiu's eyes.

The hairstylist fixing Lin Sanjiu's hair spoke, "I heard that this one is crabby. Don't waste your time on her. Oh, isn't he the guy that became famous after the previous competition?"

"Yes! I like him. I've got to watch this segment." The makeup artist paused and turned to look at the screen behind them.

"You can watch while you do her makeup. Don't let it delay your work," the other hair stylist advised as she continued adding hair extensions to Lin Sanjiu's hair. With her skillful hands, she had already converted half of Lin Sanjiu's short hair into loose waist-length braids by adding hair extensions.

The person that they were discussing was a gruff well-built man who was wearing only an odd-looking brief, showing his muscular body. The man looked at the camera and flashed a smile.

Just when she thought that there was something suspicious about the man, Lin Sanjiu suddenly heard a soft chattering sound. She turned to look behind her and noticed that the fair-skinned girl was staring hard at the television screen. The girl's teeth were chattering non-stop.

'Does she know this person?' Lin Sanjiu thought when she saw the color drain from the girl's face. Even at this point in time, Lin Sanjiu was still very confused about her whole situation. She never thought that she would actually be sent to the snow globe city.
