Chapter 977 - An Unexpected Meeting (6)
Qiao Lian kept silent.
Having put up with Shen Liangchuan’s foul temper for so long, she found it hard to imagine anyone with a worse temper.
At this thought, she grinned at the worker and nodded.
When she saw that Qiao Lian was rather good-natured, she was relieved.
She decided to let them be in the powder room and walked away.
Through the mirror’s reflection, Qiao Lian could see the makeup artist who stood behind her.
She could see that the makeup artist was taking her own sweet time, fishing items out of her makeup bag slowly.
An item at a time, she arranged her tools in front of the mirror, and that took more than 10 minutes.
The junior assistant standing on the side couldn’t help saying, “Can you work faster? What if the great Best Actor turns up? What is our Love Chuan going to do?”
The makeup artist snorted icily and said, “So now you realize you should be worried? It’s useless! I have to lay out my gear. Otherwise, how am I going to put on your makeup?”
The junior assistant fumed silently.
The makeup artist gave another snort before she finally walked up to Qiao Lian and started to apply her makeup.
Of course, she wouldn’t deliberately make Qiao Lian look bad, that would reflect badly on her reputation.
However, her attitude was extremely half-hearted as she worked on Qiao Lian.
She looked around and then her gaze fell on the junior assistant. “You, bring me that makeup powder.”
The junior assistant looked at all the cosmetics laying, found the makeup powder and handed it over to the makeup artist.
The makeup artist narrowed her eyes. Just as the junior assistant released her grip on it, the former immediately opened her hand. The makeup powder slipped through their fingers and fell on the ground, spraying its content all over!
Because it had fallen onto the ground, and in addition it had been shaken up, a huge puff of fine dusty powder now filled the air.
The makeup artist said raising her voice, “What do you think you’re doing?”
The junior assistant was stunned and replied, “I- I’m not doing anything. I thought you had it—”
The makeup artist frowned and stared at her fiercely. “Enough’s enough! This makeup powder is not used in large quantities and I only have one case with me. Now that it fell on the ground, what do we do? Are you doing this on purpose? When the great Best Actor arrives, are you going to make him wait for you?”
The junior assistant was berated to the point of tears. Her eyes were moist and glistening.
When the crew worker outside heard the din inside, she rushed into the powder room. “What’s going on?”
The makeup artist pointed at the makeup powder on the floor and said, “This junior assistant threw the makeup powder down on the ground because she resents me for calling her ugly!”
The junior assistant immediately said, “No, I didn’t—”
“You’re denying it even now! Am I wrongfully accusing you?” After saying this, the makeup artist turned to look at the crew worker and continued, “Now what? When the great Best Actor arrives and there is no makeup powder, are we going to make him wait?”
The crew worker started to panic too and chided the junior assistant, “What’s the matter with you?! Don’t you know that for celebrities like Best Actor Shen, we have to pay him for the time he spends here?! Making him wait… How are you going to bear the consequences?”
Qiao Lian’s head snapped up as she heard this. She widened her eyes in horror and asked, “Who did you say was coming? Best Actor Shen?”
The crew worker nodded
By now, Qiao Lian was not listening to what the crew worker was saying.
Her head was full of Best Actor Shen… Best Actor Shen!
She completely had not expected that the person who would be filming the advertisement with her would actually be Shen Liangchuan!
As she was agonizing and trying to come to terms with this new development, someone outside shouted, “Hurry, Best Actor Shen is here!”
