Chapter 542: Dumb Woman
Chu Luo and the woman called Bi Zhu looked at each other. She had seen information about this person before. She was a good seedling in the film industry, but it seemed like she couldn’t hide her emotions.
Seeing Chu Luo look over, Bi Zhu looked back at her. “Am I wrong? This is Phoenix Corporation’s dressing room, not a place for you to display your affection!”
Chu Luo looked at her. Everyone thought that she would swallow her anger and apologize to Bi Zhu.
At this moment, Chu Luo grabbed the hand of Li Yan who was about to flare up and asked in confusion, “Did my husband’s public display of affection block your view or affect your mood?”
“Both.”
“Why? We’re so far away from you. There are so many people in between us. I didn’t deliberately raise my voice either. Why do you keep watching us?”
“I…” Bi Zhu thought to herself, ‘Although you guys look ordinary, with your disposition, you two became the focus of everyone’s attention the moment you entered. How can I not look?’
“Ha!” Chu Luo sneered. “Us makeup artists are employees hired by the Phoenix Corporation today. As for you, you still don’t know who will be the lucky one chosen. So, Sister, I’d advise you to be more polite to the makeup artists.”
“Are you threatening me?”
Bi Zhu was already a little unhappy to be stared at by everyone. When she heard Chu Luo say that, she almost couldn’t control her emotions and wanted to stand up to curse. It was only when the assistant standing beside her pressed her shoulder that she sat back down.
As soon as Bizhu sat back down, a mocking voice came from the side. “Dumb woman.”
“You…” Seeing that it was Ci Jing, Bi Zhu ultimately swallowed her anger, but her expression became even worse.
Chu Luo looked at Li Yan. “Don’t be angry.”
After saying that, she looked at the woman sitting there and said, “Pretty Sister, come sit over. I’ll help you put on makeup.”
The woman sat over. When Chu Luo applied makeup on her, she couldn’t help but ask in a complicated tone, “Do you know these people who came today?”
Chu Luo shook her head. “Not many.”
The woman was a little surprised. “You don’t chase celebrities.”
“I do. But I don’t chase celebrities. I only chase people who have contributed to mankind. For example…”
Chu Luo mentioned dozens of famous people throughout the world and times in one go. Everyone was stunned.
Someone sitting at the side couldn’t help but ask, “Then how long have you been studying makeup?”
These words made everyone stare at her.
Chu Luo curled her lips. “I haven’t really learned it properly. I just help my friends put on makeup sometimes.”
Pfft!
The woman who was letting Chu Luo do her makeup suddenly stopped her. “Little girl, I think I should wait for the other makeup artists to help me with my makeup.”
“But I’ve already started.” Chu Luo was a little troubled. “When I came here, the in-charge said to me that if I don’t help one of you with your makeup, I won’t be getting paid today.”
After saying that, she stopped and turned to look at the others. Her big eyes were filled with anticipation. “Which of you is willing to let me put on makeup?”
Everyone pretended not to understand her gaze, calling for the makeup artist to help them do their makeup or pretending to be busy.
The scene suddenly became a little awkward.
Seeing everyone like this, Chu Luo subconsciously grabbed Li Yan’s clothes and looked like she was about to cry.
At this moment, the man sitting beside the woman suddenly asked her, “Can you guarantee that your makeup skills won’t be too bad?”
Chu Luo looked at the man and lowered her eyes as if she was sheepish. She tightened her grip on Li Yan’s clothes and said, “I can’t guarantee it.”
“Tsk ~”
“What is Phoenix Corporation thinking? They actually hired someone who’s not even a makeup artist to help us put on makeup. Can’t such a big brand afford to hire a better makeup artist?”
“Exactly. If word got out, others would laugh their heads off.”
“I heard that only noble madams and rich men’s daughters are qualified to buy Phoenix Corporation’s products in Europe and America. Moreover, those with slightly lower statuses have to queue up. How did such an impressive brand become so petty in the empire?”
“Indeed. I also heard that the respected princess of America is an ambassador for this brand. With such a comparison, I’m almost wondering if Phoenix Cosmetics is preparing to go after the mass market in the empire.”
“If that’s the case, Sister Ling, I think you shouldn’t be too serious.”
…
The people whispering were all the assistants of the celebrities and models. The celebrities and models sat there without saying anything, but they had no intention of stopping them from discussing.
The atmosphere became even more awkward.
At this moment, the man spoke again.
He didn’t immediately say if he wanted Chu Luo to do his makeup for him. Instead, he told her his identity. “My name is Luo Mingxuan, a model from the Celestial Model Company.”
Chu Luo looked at him for two seconds before turning to ask Li Yan, “Yan, is the Celestial Model Company very famous?”
Li Yan: “It’s a small company.”
Everyone: “…”
Were these two country bumpkins or were they here to joke?
One didn’t know about the Celestial Model Company, and the other said that the Celestial Model Company was a small company?
One had to know that the Celestial Model Company was ranked third in the Empire’s modeling industry!
Finally, a celebrity sitting there couldn’t stand it anymore. He said coldly, “We’re here for an audition, not to see the two country bumpkins. Makeup artist, please finish doing my makeup. If you don’t finish in time, who’s going to be responsible?”
When everyone heard this, they remembered their main purpose and urged the makeup artist to quickly do their makeup.
Chu Luo stood in front of Li Yan, looking embarrassed.
Li Yan glanced at everyone with undisguised displeasure and lowered his eyes to say to her, “If no one wants you to put on makeup, we’ll go out.”
“But…”
Chu Luo bit her lips and turned to look into his eyes. A cunning glint flashed across her eyes.
Li Yan pinched her cheek in displeasure. Although he knew that she was doing it on purpose, he was still displeased to see others treating her like this, so he lowered his eyes and stopped looking at anyone.
The others had makeup artists. The woman and assistant beside Chu Luo and Li Yan were a little anxious. Only that man sat there with a calm expression.
He looked at Chu Luo and Li Yan. After a while, he said, “You can help me put on makeup.”
Chu Luo immediately looked at him, her eyes bright.
Luo Mingxuan narrowed his eyes and felt like he was seeing a sky full of stars.
Just as he was having other thoughts, a sharp gaze shot over.
He abruptly came back to his senses and said with a tense face, “But I have a condition… You can’t make me too ugly.”
Chu Luo was a little surprised that he would say that, but she pretended to be in a difficult position and said, “I’ll try my best.”
The woman sitting beside Luo Mingxuan looked at him in disbelief. “Luo Mingxuan, you’re crazy!”
Luo Mingxuan didn’t look at her but at Chu Luo. “You can start putting on makeup for me.”
Chu Luo nodded at him with joy in her eyes and tugged at Li Yan’s clothes to walk up to him.
The moment Li Yan approached, Luo Mingxuan suddenly felt an invisible pressure pressing down on him. He quietly suppressed his palpitations and closed his eyes slightly as he asked Chu Luo to do his makeup for him.
Li Yan looked at the man in front of him with displeasure in his eyes. If it weren’t for the fact that Chu Luo wanted to play, he wouldn’t want his wife to put on makeup for other men at all.
Chu Luo did makeup on Luo Mingxuan’s face for almost a minute before stopping.
She announced, “Done.”
The others looked at her, not having realized what was going on.
Especially the woman sitting there. She asked in a strange tone, “Done? Are you sure?”
Chu Luo zipped up her makeup bag and was about to speak when Li Yan said first, “Since your mission is completed, let’s leave.”
Chu Luo glanced at Li Yan’s face, which was darker than before, and knew that this man was definitely jealous again.
She quickly placed her petite hand in his big hand. After he held it, she nodded. “Okay.”
Li Yan’s cold expression finally disappeared a little. He pulled her out of the dressing room.
Everyone: “…”
These two people actually left just like that!
After a moment of stunned silence, someone suddenly exclaimed, “Heavens, Luo Mingxuan, your makeup is really well done. It’s so natural.”
Everyone abruptly snapped out of their trance and looked at Luo Mingxuan.
As a man, makeup was relatively simple, but the simpler the makeup, the greater the requirement of a makeup artist’s ability.
With a few strokes, Chu Luo had made Luo Mingxuan’s already handsome face even more handsome. Moreover, she had even raised his disposition by a few degrees.
At a glance, Luo Mingxuan didn’t look like a model. Instead, he looked like a young master from a wealthy family.
“This… is too magical?”
“Who exactly is that woman? To think she has such amazing makeup skills. Then why did she say just now that she doesn’t know how to do makeup?”
“Assistant, hurry up and help me get that woman back. I want her to help me put on makeup too!”
“I want her to help me put on makeup too!”
