After Being Reborn, Her Only Mission Is to Love Him Chapter 296: 294 What do you want to do?!

Chapter 296: Chapter 294 What do you want to do?!

Lu Zhaozhao poked another small cake and stuffed a piece into her mouth, uncertain whether she wanted to ask a question.

“Knock, knock, knock!”

Suddenly, the door to the resting room was knocked.

“Teacher Lu, the director wants to do a test shoot, we need to go to the makeup room now.”

The staff at the door looked at Lu Zhaozhao with a beaming smile, but their eyes occasionally stole glances at Xia Wenyan, who was sitting right across from Lu Zhaozhao.

This was a top-tier celebrity, indeed a sight for the eyes.

Seeing this, Lu Zhaozhao quickly stood up, tapped Xia Wenyan on the top of his head, and said, “Bro, I’ve got to go get busy, you stay here and be good.”

“Alright, go ahead~”

Xia Wenyan waved his hand, casually lingering in Lu Zhaozhao’s resting room.

He had originally planned to discuss with Pei Huai about taking on a new script together.

He hadn’t expected that attending a charity dinner would lead to such complications.

Furthermore, that jerk seed to have taken a liking to Avril, which annoyed him even more.

As Xia Wenyan thought about this, he suddenly rembered that Avril had just called him, not knowing where Pei Huai and Avril were ssing around now.

He wondered why he had never noticed before how poor Pei Huai’s taste was.

The more he thought about it, the angrier he beca, but just then, he saw the ssages Avril had sent him.

“Send Pei Huai’s contact info, I forgot to ask when we were chatting.”

“Did you get my ssage? Reply imdiately!”

“I need Pei Huai’s contact information!!!”

…

It seed they had already left, and Avril hadn’t managed to get Pei Huai’s contact info.

Xia Wenyan looked at Avril’s agitated ssages and slowly curved his lips.

He didn’t get it, so be it; he didn’t bother to care about them…

anwhile, Lu Zhaozhao, who had left the resting room, had also reached the makeup room.

Their drama team’s resting rooms were allocated according to status, but makeup was done as a team, although each person was assigned a different makeup artist.

Sun Qian and Bai Qing were almost finished with their makeup, nearly at the final touch-up stage.

Thus, the ones sitting in front of the makeup table were the second male lead Yan Gui and the second female lead Lin Baiyu.

Although she was the third female lead, because her role carried a bit more weight, she was getting makeup done alongside the second male and female leads.

In a fantasy drama, everyone, especially the male actors, needed to wear headpieces, and the makeup could make or break a character—they could either look superbly dashing or utterly inexpressible.

Bai Qing, a celebrity initially famous for his looks, naturally had impeccable makeup.

Plus, their makeup team was well-known throughout the industry, so the entire makeup process was quite a treat.

Except for Lu Zhaozhao.

Because she watched in horror as her makeup artist continued to make her uglier and uglier.

Her natural beauty was the type that could captivate at first glance even without makeup.

Yet, this makeup artist had a knack for highlighting the wrong features, using clashing colors carelessly; in no ti, her face resembled a palette.

The large, glittery pieces on her face and the thick eyelashes that nearly weighed down her eyelids looked utterly vulgar.

Don’t even ntion the seductive Little Fox, this level of makeup in the production crew of A Chinese Ghost Story would definitely not even be accepted by the grandmother ghost.

Lu Zhaozhao glanced up at the mirror and saw her makeup was worlds apart from that of the second male and female lead. She also noticed the self-satisfied makeup artist and her increasingly guilty-looking assistant and seed to understand sothing.

“Stop the makeup,” Lu Zhaozhao suddenly interrupted the makeup artist Zhao i who was still working on her face.

Zhao i was also startled, “Teacher Lu, do you have a problem with my makeup?”

Lu Zhaozhao pulled out her phone and took several snaps of her own face.

She handed the phone to Zhao i, “Can’t you tell if I have a problem with your makeup?”

When she had taken the photos earlier, she had noticed Sun Qian looking over with a particularly triumphant expression.

It seed that Zhao i dared to do such makeup probably because Sun Qian had instructed her to.

Yan Gui and Lin Baiyu, who just happened to see Lu Zhaozhao’s overly bright face, nearly got their eyes dazzled by it.

With this kind of makeup, saying there was no trickery involved would be hard for anyone to believe.

But Zhao i had a bit of a reputation in the industry, and they were only third- or fourth-tier actors who couldn’t afford to offend soone like that.

If she decided to find fault with their makeup as well, that would be problematic.

So, they all had to act like quails, showing no intention of helping Lu Zhaozhao.

In the entertainnt industry, when it ca to vested interests, people naturally stood by indifferently.

Initially intimidated by Lu Zhaozhao’s remarks, Zhao i quickly beca emboldened upon seeing that no one around stood up for Lu Zhaozhao.

“I’ve been in the makeup industry for over a decade, seen all sorts of big nas, and this is the first ti soone has said this to . Teacher Lu, did you really want to throw your weight around on your first day in the crew?”

She knew Lu Zhaozhao had the backing of the Song Group and was Xia Wenyan’s sister.

If she went to complain to Song Sinian or Xia Wenyan, Zhao i could retaliate with professionalism.

So, looking at Lu Zhaozhao, Zhao i felt even more confident.

Lu Zhaozhao looked startled and gazed at Zhao i, “Teacher Zhao, that’s a bit harsh. I’m quite new to the industry and not very familiar with the makeup circles…”

Sitting by her side, Yan Gui and Lin Baiyu, upon hearing Lu Zhaozhao, knew that this poor newcor was likely going to back down.

With such ugly makeup, she would probably face widespread ridicule when the TV series aired. Even if she explained later that it was the makeup artist’s fault, probably nobody would believe her…

Thinking this way, they looked at Lu Zhaozhao with a bit more sympathy.

Sun Qian was even more triumphant. Only Bai Qing, sitting quietly on the side, picked up his folding fan, covering most of his face and watched Lu Zhaozhao with interest.

Had he not seen Lu Zhaozhao’s quick-switching capabilities before the script reading, he would probably be sympathetic towards her like Yan Gui and Lin Baiyu.

But having witnessed her confront a popular top-tier celebrity without flinching, would she step back just because of a re makeup artist?

Impossible.

Seeing Lu Zhaozhao submit, Zhao i raised her voice a few decibels, “Now that you know, just sit quietly, and I…”

“No, no, no, Teacher Zhao, you misunderstood,” Lu Zhaozhao’s eyes curved, “What I an is, I don’t understand your circle, but among my fans are crouching tigers and hidden dragons. Let post on Weibo and have them take a look.”

Lu Zhaozhao was about to take out her phone to open Weibo, when Zhao i abruptly stopped her.

“What, what are you trying to do?!”

She just wanted to teach Lu Zhaozhao a lesson, not provoke an online mob!

Lu Zhaozhao looked baffled at Zhao i, “Of course, to share Teacher Zhao’s makeup skills with everyone. Rest assured, I’ll definitely post your na and photo so everyone can see the skills you’ve honed over a decade~”
