Chapter 68: She Really Knows How to Fake a Story

Translator: Larbre Studio  Editor: Larbre Studio

When the makeup artist, Linda, arrived, she started to help the actors and actresses to do their makeup for each role.

Because Xu Xiyan’s character was a minor one, she’d have to wait until the end for Linda to apply her makeup. Unlike the leading actor and actress, who had their own make-up artist and studio, she’d have to wait outside, sitting on a cold stool.

After Linda had applied makeup to Xu Xinrou, she looked much sexier, like a concubine from the past, wearing a long, elegant dress.

Xu Xiyan nodded and acknowledged Linda’s make-up skills. Even though Xu Xiyan thought that her own skills were better, reaching Linda’s level was was no easy feat.

Xu Xinrou dragged her long dress out of the room after she had her make-up applied, and Linda started to work on the minor characters.

Luckily, Xu Xiyan was the first on the list. Linda asked her to sit in front of the mirror and began to help her put on her make-up.

After half an hour, Linda had finished, and she asked for the stylist’s assistance. Her name was Tina, and she helped Xu Xiyan choose her clothes.

After she came out of the changing room, Xu Xiyan stood in front of the mirror. She had a weird feeling about her clothes.

I should be playing a servant for the second female lead…so why am I wearing the clothes of a concubine?

Just as Xu Xiyan was about to ask Linda about her clothes, Xu Xinrou finished shooting her photos and approached Xu Xiyan with the Executive Director and a few others supervisors.

Xu Xinrou looked at Xu Xiyan’s clothes and asked the Executive Director Yang Yong, “Director Yang, what is the meaning of this? Why is she wearing clothes that were meant for me?”

As soon as Xu Xiyan heard Xu Xinrou’s complaint, everything became clear. Someone was pulling some tricks.

Xu Xiyan had been with Xu Xinrou in the make-up studio the whole time, yet she never noticed Xu Xinrou buying off the make-up artist.

Xu Xiyan tried to explain. “Director Yang, Senior Xu, these were chosen for me by the make-up artist and stylist. I had no idea that these were the clothes intended to be worn by second female lead.”

Director Yang began questioning her.

“Are you sure? So you’re blaming the make-up artist and the stylist for this mistake?” They would’ve never given you these clothes unless you pressured them to. Are you…are you trying to make me look bad?”

Xu Xiyan was impressed with Xu Xinrou’s capability of faking a story.

“That’s not what I’m trying to do!” said Xu Xiyan. “Why would I want to make anyone look bad? This is my first time meeting you, we’ve never had any conflicts in the past…”

Xu Xinrou stared at Xu Xiyan, and then turned to Director Yang.

“Director Yang, if you’re trying to use the new girl instead of me, then I’ll be taking my leave.”

Director Yang was actually stunned by the beautiful Xu Xiyan, but he quickly recovered.

“Why would I? Direct Huang personally wanted you to play the second female lead. I’m not sure who the girl in front of us is. Let’s call the make-up artist here and ask her. Who knows, maybe it was just a mistake?”

That said, they quickly called in Linda and Tina to question them about the matter.
