Chapter 985: About To Arrive…
Translator: Yunyi
“You came quite quickly.”
“Of course, Sister Rao called me. Even if I was in the Pacific Ocean, I would swim back as fast as I could!”
Xia Rao glared at him and scolded him jokingly, “Stop talking nonsense!”
She led the man in and introduced him to Song Yaoyao. “Yaoyao, this is J, my personal makeup artist.”
Song Yaoyao looked at J curiously and nodded gently. “Hello.”
“Wow!”
The exaggerated way he spoke made the corner of Song Yaoyao’s mouth twitch. She looked at the two people in front of her blankly.
What exactly were they trying to do?
“Hello, beautiful lady! Today, I will be doing your makeup for the banquet. Please relax your body and give yourself to me completely! Believe me, today, you will be the most beautiful princess!”
Song Yaoyao was confused.
“Give… my body… to you???”
What was this person talking about? Was he talking dirty?
Cough…
Xia Rao was helpless. “J, act normal. If the male host hears you, I won’t be able to protect you if he gets jealous.”
J raised his hands. “Alright, alright. I’m sorry, little cutie. I’m just used to it.”
Su Yan shook her head. “It’s okay.”
Xia Rao also explained for him, “This is his personality. He doesn’t have any bad intentions. Oh right, he likes people like himself, so just treat him like a sister.”
Song Yaoyao: “…”
She sized J up and finally understood the sense of disharmony she had seen from him in the beginning.
For the whole day, Song Yaoyao didn’t have any rest.
She felt like she could fall asleep sitting down. Fortunately, Xia Rao was with her. At noon, Lin Shuang came with Tong Tong and Xiao Ye. It was much better to have them by her side. Otherwise, Song Yaoyao wouldn’t be able to hold on.
She was bored and was flipping through a book. She asked sullenly, “Sister Xia Rao, is it this hard to be a celebrity?”
Xia Rao couldn’t help but laugh. “It’s more than that. Your current style is already very simple. The most complicated style I’ve ever done is a special effects makeup. It took two whole days. Even when I was sleeping, I was wearing the makeup.”
Song Yaoyao felt goosebumps all over her body when she heard this. She had to wear makeup for several days, and she had to sit in front of the makeup table to be fiddled with like a puppet. Just the thought of it was unbearable for her.
“Luckily, I didn’t become an artiste,” she said with lingering fear.
“Pfff…”
Lin Shuang shook her head and asked with a smile, “I’ve heard that Director Kang wanted you to become an actress at the beginning?”
“I’m not interested.”
Song Yaoyao had never thought of becoming an actress to begin with. Now that she knew how hard it was to become one, she completely gave up on that idea.
It turned out that the makeup for Concubine Yan was nothing compared to Xia Rao’s experience.
After all, Song Yaoyao had been too busy being the director, taking care of everything in the crew that she didn’t have the time to focus on the makeup. Thus, she didn’t know much about it.
“Haha, it’s actually very interesting to be an actress. You can experience all kinds of life situations and act as people with different personalities. It’s very interesting.”
Song Yaoyao still shook her head. “No, no, no, no! Compared to acting, I prefer to be a director.”
Being an actress was too tiring.
Xia Rao looked at her cute appearance, unable to wipe the smile off her face. She really liked this future-sister-in-law who was many years younger than her.
It took a whole day. From head to toe, she was exquisite down to the finest strand of hair.
She even had a beautiful manicure done on her fingers. It was so serious that Song Yaoyao was a little flustered.
What was happening, exactly?
“Alright! Take a look!”
J snapped his fingers and waited for Song Yaoyao to walk out of the changeroom.
