7. Getting Makeover

'Huh... what happened? Did I say something wrong?' Devansh was taken aback, seeing the favorability drop suddenly, not understanding what was wrong with what he said.  

"No... It's enough for today, and we aren't that familiar with each other to have a candlelight dinner." Anaya Mira said in an awkward tone, backing off slightly.  

She didn't want to go that fast, even if he had shown great interest in her and showered her with many expensive gifts. But she didn’t think it was a good idea to continue further.  

"Devansh Magnus, I am a university student at MariaGold University of Technology. This year I turned 22. My favorite color is maroon blue. Is that enough? I can go on if you like." Devansh took Anaya's hand abruptly and started telling her about himself with a confident tone.  

"Hehe... It's alright. As for me, I am Anaya Mira, an art student at the University of Arts and Commerce. My favorite color is dark pink. I like to enjoy the company of dashing and handsome men who are also attentive toward me. Nice to have met you, Mr. Magnus, and I enjoyed your company very much today." Anaya Mira also introduced herself, playfully jabbing him while showing a genuine smile.  

"I also enjoyed your company, and it was also my first time having someone who felt comfortable spending time with me." Devansh felt it was worth it, spending a good time with her.  

He glanced at the holographic screen, which had just blinked, and grinned inwardly.

"By the way, when you're so rich, why aren't you wearing nice clothes? And what's up with your messy hairstyle?" Anaya Mira asked, as this had been bothering her for a while now.  

"Ohhh... I don't have money for that. I am dirt poor!" Devansh honestly replied, not minding whether she was going to believe him or not.  

"Huh... you and poor?" Anaya looked at him up and down before thinking about something in her mind.  

'Ohhh... I understand now. So now it's my turn to dress him up and show him how attentive I can be. This is also a good chance to earn some brownie points with him.' Anaya thought to herself.  

"Alright then, let me change you a little today." Anaya grabbed his hand before taking him to a nearby salon.  

"Miss... style him into something that would suit his physique!" Anaya said to the hairstylist, who nodded back after observing Devansh for a while before starting her work.  

"Nice... now he looks dashing! You’ll need a little bit of quality clothing before you turn into a handsome man!" Anaya smiled after Devansh got his haircut, which refined his appearance.  

Anaya paid for the salon before she dragged Devansh into a clothing store. She wasn't as wealthy as him, but she still took him to a decent store where she had him try many good outfits before selecting one.  

"Ohh... wow! Miss, you really have a good eye. Your boyfriend looks very handsome." The shopkeeper lady complimented Anaya for choosing suitable clothes that brought out the unique aura of Devansh as he stood in front of her.  

Devansh's appearance had a stark contrast from before—even he felt surprised by it.  

With his hair neatly trimmed and styled, his sharp jawline and well-defined features became more noticeable. His deep-set eyes, which once hid behind messy strands, now had a captivating intensity. His properly fitted clothing enhanced his physique, giving him a confident and polished look. His improved posture and well-groomed presence added an air of quiet charisma.

Devansh, who was busy admiring himself, blinked as he looked back at Anaya, whose eyes seemed to sparkle with strange joy.  

"How is it? Do I look strange or something?" Devansh asked, feeling quite good seeing her reaction.  

"Not at all. You look very handsome now. Dress like this from now on—I almost fell for you." Anaya said in a flirty tone, making Devansh blush a little at her straightforwardness.  

Both of them left the shop after Anaya was done paying for his clothes. Anaya decided to leave for home, seeing that it was getting late.  

"Alright, see you later. I really had a lot of fun today, so we should see each other again, Mr. Magnus!" Anaya turned as she spoke before playfully blowing him a flying kiss. She then took a cab and left.  

"She is really bold sometimes. I'm going to get her next time. For now, let's go back to the dorm—I’m starting to feel really hungry." Devansh shook his head and smiled wryly, looking at the screen hovering in front of him.

"I am back...!" Devansh Magnus announced as he arrived back at his dorm room.  

"Huh... Damn, Devansh! What happened to you? What's all this?!" His first roommate was taken aback, seeing the completely new look on Devansh.  

"What the... He really had a makeover. Where were you all day to end up like this?" The second roommate almost shouted in surprise.  

"Hahaha... Don't be shocked by this. I was on a dare with Beauty Anaya Mira!" Devansh smiled smugly as he sat down on his bed coolly before replying.  

"Ohh... Come on, are you joking with us? You can't even handle the beauty, Aranya Sen, and you think we’ll believe that you had the courage to go on a date with Beauty Anaya Mira, who is ten times better than Aranya Sen in both looks and grace?" The first roommate scolded him, thinking he was boasting to save himself from the morning’s embarrassment.  

"Yeah, Anaya Mira is a lovely and very charming beauty from the Art Department at the University of Arts and Commerce. She has a large number of admirers in her university. Not only that, but she is also well known in our university and admired by the nerds." The second roommate also didn’t believe Devansh's nonsense, as he knew who Anaya Mira was and how much influence she had on the young hearts of their university.  

"Let's be real here—you are way out of her league. Listen to our advice and stop dreaming about her, lest your depression overtakes you!" Both roommates advised him with disdainful glances. They knew full well how dirt poor their roommate was and how high-maintenance the Beauty from the Art Department was, so their advice was very sincere this time.  

Even though they never saw eye to eye with their third roommate, anyone would feel sympathy for someone who experienced a breakup every week.  

"I appreciate it, but don't worry—I know what I'm doing!" Devansh sweatdropped at their words before brushing them off.
