When Gong Yu saw Amy holding her hands and thinking something else as looking at the phone, he asked, "What"s wrong?"
Amy put the phone aside and answered softly, "Ding Sisi is really funny. She dared to order me to deal with it carelessly."
Upon hearing it, Gong Yu became sullen and said deeply, "Ignore it. And do you own thing carefully."
Amy could not help arching her eyebrows and joking, "What? Handsome guy, why did you stand up for Yun Muxi like that? Do you like our screenwriter?"
Yun Muxi was surprised at these words and said in disagreement, "Oh dear, Sister Amy, don"t make fun of me. It"s not good if others hear that."
Gong Yu coughed lightly and pretended to be indifferent. He headed down to a magazine and said in a deep voice, "We don"t have enough time. Please get started!"
After being reminded, Amy came to herself and got into gear quickly, throwing herself into doing makeup for Yun Muxi.
As for Ding Sisi"s command, she did not take it seriously. This was Zhao Yi"s film, so she had attached great importance to it. But for Ding Sisi, she did not care about at all.
Although Amy was slightly inferior to Tina, she still made a name for herself in the circle. Amy came from a poor family in the countryside and earned a living in the city at a tender age. She showed great interest in image designing. After saving some money by doing concurrently several jobs and being frugal, she used the money to enter a vocational school and study image designing. Amy was smart and gifted. After graduation, she made some achievements indeed and had her own understanding.
But at that time, Amy almost used up all of her savings and had little money to dress herself up. Many people thought that she was too rustic to be a make-up artist, so they rejected her directly even without examining her skill.
At that time, she encountered Zhao Yi by chance. He was shooting a film when his make-up artist fell ill unexpectedly and had to be hospitalized. It was hard to find a proper make-up artist to help. With Amy"s teacher"s recommendation, Zhao Yi agreed to give her a try. He found that Amy was highly perceptive and skillful, so he gave her the first chance and later introduced a number of opportunities to her. Gradually, Amy became known in the circle. She thought that Zhao Yi scouted her. Therefore, as long as Zhao Yi asked, she would say yes without hesitation. And she was the make-up artist of "Where does love belong".
The reason why Zhao Yi preferred to choose Amy was that she was talented, hard-working and upright in particular, an extraordinary person in the entertainment circle who would not be disturbed by other factors.
Amy got down to doing the makeup for Yun Muxi. She thought that Yun Muxi had good grounds, so she did not put too much on her. Besides, Amy selected a piece of white, simple and modest costume for her. She just expended less than one-third of energy that she had spent on Ding Sisi. Within an hour, she completed the makeup for Yun Muxi with ease. It should be Amy"s most satisfactory work until now. The process was quite smooth, which made her excited indeed.
Amy delightedly led Yun Muxi to come to Gong Yu and said with a smile, "Gong Yu, come and see. Are you satisfied with the leading actress?"
Gong Yu put down the magazine in his hands and raised his eyes. Suddenly, he fixed his eyes on Yun Muxi and fell into a daze. The familiar memories flooded into his mind.
The pretty woman in front had big black clear eyes. The small mole below her left eye was like a teardrop and was rather adorable. He was fascinated by her appearance— the prominent nose, rosy lips closed, faint rouge on the white tender face, and the pointed chin tucked slightly. She looked unconfident and bashful. n.o.body would withdraw the eyes from such a beautiful and delicate face.
She wore beautiful white soft clothes with silk waistband, which flaunted her good figure and brought out her fresh and refined sense.
The girl in the memory who he had just met...seemed to come back. Gong Yu became infatuated with glowing fire in his eyes...
Yun Muxi looked at Gong Yu"s glowing eyes and reminded, "Can I do this? Or I"d better not!"
Gong Yu came to himself and retracted his ardent eyes. He sank his voice and said, "You look perfect and feel free to act Zhen Nuan who you"ve described. You don"t need any acting skills. Just see Zhen Nuan as yourself and tell yourself that you"re Zhen Nuan."
It seemed that Gong Yu"s words had double meanings, which made Yun Muxi more sacred. Gong Yu felt Yun Muxi"s emotion and added immediately, "What I meant is to ask you to act naturally, not deliberately. After all, you"re not the leading actress and the camera will not shoot you at all. You mainly need to play up to me and support me."
Yun Muxi nodded mildly. Gong Yu led Yun Muxi to the filming site. Everyone was busy. Although the setting was still in the leading actor"s room, the changing scene made some details quite different. So the setting needed rearrangement.
Gong Yu led Yun Muxi to Zhao Yi directly when Zhao Yi lowered his head and discussed with the photographer. The photographer firstly found two more pairs of feet in front and raised his head to take a look, but he was completely stunned...
Zhao Yi was speaking to him when he found there was something wrong with the photographer. He looked up, only to see the photographer"s shocked and thrilled expression. The photographer opened his mouth wide--wide enough to tuck an egg in, and his eyes kindled with uncontrollable excitement! Zhao Yi follow the gaze, and he was stunned, too...
He stood up, paced to and fro in front of Yun Muxi, and looked her over with excitement. He wore a delighted smile with his eyes full of surprise and thrill as if he had discovered something valuable. He said with satisfaction, "Oh my! I almost can"t recognize you! Unexpected...really unexpected! You really amaze me! Perfect! Perfect! Too perfect!"
Zhao Yi rambled in his words. But the amazement nearly drove him crazy. To exaggerate it, he was as crazy as a person pa.s.sed the civil exam.
Zhao Yi shouted wildly at He Xin, who just pa.s.sed by in the distance, "Lao He, come and see! Come on!"
After hearing Zhao Yi"s words, He Xin felt puzzled why Zhang Yi became so excited. She walked toward Zhao Yi with doubt. But before she got closer, Zhao Yi could hardly wait to exclaim, "This, this is a tailor-made Zhen Nuan. Come and have a look. Come on..."
Zhao Yi"s voice was so loud and excited that it attracted many staff on the filming site. They all wondered why he became so fevered. Some of them came to him puzzledly after hearing his words.
When they saw Yun Muxi, everyone was struck dumb on the spot, like a fixed picture.
After a momentary silence, various exclamations and praises sounded.
"Who can tell me whether it"s a dream or delusion? It"s really shocking!"
"Oh, my G.o.d, this...this is Yun Muxi! I can"t believe it. She is really amazing!"
"Dear me, this Zhen Nuan seems to walk from the story, and she can surpa.s.s 100 Di Sisi without a doubt..."
"Yes, indeed. On the first day of shooting, Ding Sisi spent the whole day making up, even invited Tina, the superb make-up artist to help her. Even so, she cannot compare to Yun Muxi who just spent one hour."
"That"s incredible. I am completely confused... She is my G.o.ddess."
"Yun Muxi is really good at hiding herself. She is obviously a stunning beauty. Why does she always dress like a common girl?"
"That"s called low-key. It"s absolutely shocking. It refreshes my aesthetic standard."
"I think Yun Muxi should be the leading actress. She needn"t do anything but just standing there. It"s awesome already."
"Did Yun Muxi create Zhen Nuan by modeling after her own image? She is simply portraying herself."
Voices rang on and on. Yun Muxi"s appearance completely amazed everyone on the spot.
Seeing the staff gathering together and giving praises, Ding Sisi curiously walked toward them to see what happened. When she saw the scene, her face flushed with anger. She felt totally unbalanced--she had spent one day in getting a satisfactory makeup, but Yun Muxi just needed less than one hour before she could appear perfectly. Ding Sisi was wild with jealousy. But she was Ding Sisi. How could she admit that she envied others? Her pride would not allow her to do so!
Ding Sisi uttered with sarcasm, "Yun Muxi, you"re rather photogenic with the makeup. How much benefit did you give Amy? That day, did you intentionally ask Amy not to do makeup for me well? Did you await an opportunity to show yourself? You always dress rather rustically. But today do you intend to make a gra.s.s-roots counterattack to impress everyone? You really play a good trick as a master killer. How scheming you"re! What are you scheming for?"
Upon hearing it, Gong Yu became grave with a ferocious look in his eyes. He was about to utter when Zhao Yi spoke firstly, "Ding Sisi, you should admit that you"re jealous and you"re not qualified. Who are you saying such ironic words to?"
Ding Sisi was on the edge of losing her temper. But she thought that Yun Muxi would foil her and became her stepping stone after the performance. At that time, Zhao Yi had to make an apology to her and beg for her return. And some of her friends were on the way to the filming site. They would arrive very soon. In a while, there would be more onlookers... Anyway, she was a movie queen. At the thought, she refrained anger in her heart and stepped aside to wait for the play.
Ding Sisi looked at her phone, seeing that some of her friends and representatives in her fans club reporting progress in the chatting group. It would not be long before her supporters came. At that time...
Ding Sisi laughed in her heart and thought, "Yun Muxi, there would be some fun of you. Want to upstage me? In your dream..."
