The Villainous Celebrity Wife of the CEO - Chapter 156.2
“…” Su Jishi was speechless. She turned to the other artists beside her and tried to explain, “If I say that President Mu and I happened to meet outside the magazine building, would you believe me?”
Yan Changhui, Wei Jing and Chen Gangyu replied in unison, “Believe you, yeah, yeah.”
Su Jishi felt that they didn’t believe it at all.
While they were waiting for their make-up, the staff smartly served snacks and tea for them to enjoy.
This publishing group was very famous for their tea breaks, and collaborated with a certain famous dessert chef in Shanghai, which was excellent in both presentation and taste.
Every artist who had enjoyed the magazine’s tea break was full of praise for the level of the cupcakes.
However, Su Jishi was not fond of desserts. She took one look at it and pushed it to Mu Xiulun with disgust.
Since Mu Xiulun had a sweet tooth, let him have them all.
She didn’t even notice that the few artists sitting across from her exchanged a sly glance in secret.
—— A girl pushing something she doesn’t like to eat on a man; isn’t this something that only dating couples can do?
……
They waited in the lounge for about fifteen minutes before the staff came in to inform them that they could go for their makeup.
The interviews before the Spring Festival were one on top of another, and budding idol groups all started with a dozen people. Hence, when this person was a little late and that person was delayed for a while, the shooting schedule piled up and could not be coordinated at all.
The editors of Entertainment Star and Gentleman’s Watch were only able to secure two small dressing rooms, one with four dressing tables and one with two.
And they only added up to just four men and two women.
Su Jishi took the initiative to approach Chen Gangyu, “Teacher Chen, should we use that small dressing room?”
Chen Gangyu was about to agree, only to hear Mu Xiulun lightly interjecting, “I suddenly remember another joke related to Yu(the character)…”
Chen Gangyu: “……”
Chen Gangyu:”……….”
Chen Gangyu: “…………”
Chen Gongyu: “No, no, no, no, no, Ms. Su. I’ll just use the big dressing room!”
Su Jishi: “…”
So in this way, Su Jishi and Mu Xiulun walked into the VIP dressing room together.
The dressing room was narrow, but it was exceptionally well-decorated. There was even a small bathroom inside the set that could be used to change.
The Gentleman’s Watch provided two show suits for Mu Xiulun. Although they were both suits, they were very different from his usual style of dressing, which was more yuppie and casual. The stylist used hairspray to fluff up the hair on top of his head, making Mu Xiulun look a few years younger. Though slightly less mature, he still carried the same poise.
The two dressing tables were adjacent, so Su Jishi’s eyes involuntarily fell on the mirror.
It was different from the feeling of looking at each other: when she examined the man beside her through the mirror, it was as if she was telling a story in the third person perspective.
There was no prince and dragon in that story, only an adventure that belonged to the princess. She was fighting for her life, and when she ascended to the throne with her own efforts, she finally met a like-minded partner —— a knight who was charging forward for revenge.
Su Jishi thought, Is this knight the one I’ve been waiting for?
She didn’t know.
The knight in the mirror also noticed the Princess’ gaze, and he looked back with an unquenchable fire in his eyes, hot and scorching.
In a trance, Su Jishi felt like she was going to get burned.
Ashan’s reminder reached her ear, “Sister Su, please close your eyes. I will give you a little eye shadow.”
These words pulled Su Jishi to her senses. She quickly took the opportunity to close her eyes and raise her head, avoiding the man’s urgent stare.
Ashan picked up a soft wool makeup brush, dipped it in gold and pink glitter, and gently smeared it on the girl’s eyelids. When Su Jishi was deprived of her vision, her other senses were amplified.
She could clearly feel the strength of Ashan’s fingers, could smell Xiao Xia’s stolen snacks, and could hear … the other makeup artist in the room, whispering in awe.
“Mr. Mu.” She only heard that makeup artist say, “You’re really thick and hard.”
“Hmm.” Mu Xiulun replied placidly, “Many people say so.”
Su Jishi: “???”
She couldn’t resist opening one eye secretly and looked beside her.
—— It turned out that the makeup artist was fixing Mu Xiulun’s eyebrows.
Su Jishi: “…”
Fine, sure enough, I was overthinking it.
The author has something to say:
Gao Ling: I have a joke about Boss Mu’s eyebrows. I don’t know if it’s inappropriate to say it.
Mu Xiulun: Secretary Gao, about your year-end bonus, I have an idea that I would love to tell.
