Once she became a cute mother, she was spoiled and became the winner

There is a very large conference room in the convention center. At this moment, there are less than ten people sitting in it, and everyone's expression is very serious.

After Xu Xiu arrived, he found an empty seat and sat down, looking around at the people here.

Half of them are well-known makeup artists in the circle, who have done makeup for many hit dramas, and the remaining half are newcomers like Xu Xiu, and some are even students from makeup schools.

Although newcomers are not as experienced and proficient as makeup masters, they also have creativity and freshness that the masters do not have.

Too many masters have formed a rigid mindset and use the same routine to do makeup for most people, and the public has long been aesthetically fatigued.

This is also the reason why Xu Xiu and others have this opportunity.

Everyone has previously submitted their own understanding of the characters and makeup ideas, and after some screening, only these people are left.

After everyone arrived, Director Chen finally showed up.

Behind him followed several models wearing cheongsams, student uniforms and Zhongshan suits, each with their own unique face shapes and looks.

The interview process is also very simple, which is just a draw.

Each person draws two groups, each with three models, representing three roles, and then starts creating.

After drawing the lots, Xu Xiu led the model to his seat and began to study it.

Among the six models, four are girls and two are boys.

The characters were already familiar to him, so Xu Xiu started to work after a little thought.

Within the specified time, she successfully completed the makeup trial on six models.

While putting on makeup, Xu Xiu could clearly see some shadows of celebrities in these models. Perhaps the models were chosen based on the actors who had already been confirmed.

After each group is completed, the assistant director and photographer will come to record the video and carefully record and shoot the makeup on the model's face.

Once all the work is completed, everyone can leave, and the final results will be notified to everyone within three days.

Xu Xiu took a taxi back to the community. It was almost ten o'clock.

She didn’t eat much for dinner and was busy putting on makeup, so Xu Xiu’s eyes lit up instantly when she saw the dazzling array of late-night snack stalls near the community.

After a delicious meal, she walked slowly towards home and saw a figure approaching with a dog under a street lamp from afar.

Jiang Sinian?

The other party obviously saw her too.

After saying hello, the golden retriever in Jiang Sinian's hand acted coquettishly towards Xu Xiu without any shyness.

Such a clingy puppy made her unable to help but squat down and stroke it twice:

"Is this Grandma Chen's new dog?"

Xu Xiu now follows the little kid and calls Jiang Sinian Grandma Chen. Otherwise, calling her Aunt Chen always feels like she is taking advantage of Jiang Sinian.

Jiang Sinian also squatted down:

"My friend went abroad and sent him to me for foster care. I was at work and couldn't take care of him, so I had to send him to my grandmother's place. It also happened to keep her company."

Xu Xiu rubbed the dog's head, and the dog lay on its back on the ground and licked her hand obediently.

"What's it called?"

"rhubarb."

"rhubarb?"

Xu Xiu smiled, not expecting such a name.

She thought that the associate professor's friends would probably be well-educated people and would come up with names with more meanings, but she didn't expect them to be so easy to understand.

However, the golden retriever has golden hair all over its body, so it is not wrong to call it Dahuang.

Xu Xiu was patting the dog's head when a tissue was handed to her.

She looked up at Jiang Sinian in confusion, only to see him pointing at the corner of his lips with his other finger. Xu Xiu then reacted and touched the corner of her own lips.

The fingertips were instantly stained with a little red oil.

It was probably something I accidentally got on my hands while eating fried skewers, grilled cold noodles, etc. at a snack stand just now.

Xu Xiu's face turned red, he smiled awkwardly, took the tissue and said thank you.

Jiang Sinian knew that she was embarrassed, so he immediately turned his gaze away and looked at the dog on the ground with a curl of his lips.

But the shy blush on the cheek of the person in front of him lingered in his mind for a long time.

After petting the dog contentedly, Xu Xiu got up and said goodbye and left, while Jiang Sinian continued to stroll around the community with the dog.

She did have a good impression of Jiang Sinian, who was filial to the elderly, well-educated, knowledgeable, and patient with little kids' strange questions.

More importantly, don't talk too much.

After the last encounter with Shen Xingyi, he kept his mouth shut and didn't reveal a single word.

However, given that Xu Zhirang was frequently picked up and there were various luxury cars at the entrance of the community, in order to avoid misunderstandings, Xu Xiu still gave a simple explanation when several grandparents asked about it.

She only said that the child’s father’s family was better off and that it was difficult for the two of them to get married because they were in different circles. They have now reconciled and decided that although they are not together, they will raise the child together.

After the elderly people knew that she gave birth to the child out of wedlock and that the child's father came from a good family, they began to imagine that she must have suffered a lot of injustice in the past.

She left home pregnant due to multiple pressures, such as the inaction of the child's father, the negotiations with her future in-laws, etc., so I feel even more distressed for her.

Xu Xiu looked at everyone hesitantly, and finally agreed shamelessly.

It is better for people to misunderstand others than to misunderstand themselves.

But Shen Xingyi didn't know that his image had been quietly tarnished without him realizing it.

So much so that when he and Xu Zhirang were waiting at the gate of the community early in the morning, they were looked at strangely by the security guard.

When residents who got up early to buy breakfast saw him, they looked him up and down with the same eyes.

Shen Xingyi was sensitive to all this.

Although he was used to being the center of attention wherever he went, today was clearly abnormal.

He narrowed his eyes and looked at Xu Xiu who came out of the door. It was obvious that everyone's changes were only related to her.

Xu Xiu also noticed the obvious injustice in everyone's expression, and smiled guiltily. When she met Shen Xingyi's eyes that seemed to see through everything, she subconsciously explained in an attempt to cover up her mistake:

"Maybe you don't understand because you haven't lived in such an old community. I'm a single mother with a child, and if a man suddenly appears next to me, it will be big news. Everyone is just a little curious, don't care."

"Just curious?"

Are you sure those eyes that seem to want to come over and take a bite are just out of curiosity?

But Xu Xiu didn't give him time to think, and hurriedly got into the car with Xu Zhirang in his arms:

"Hurry up and eat, I have to join the group today."

She has received a formal invitation from Director Chen to become the makeup artist for his new film, and will officially start work today.

It is estimated that it will take three months to complete the filming after joining the crew, so she specially had breakfast with Xiaodouding today.

The three of them came to a Chinese breakfast restaurant.

After eating, Shen Xingyi received a work call. Xu Xiu saw that there was a small playground in the store, so he accompanied the little kid there.

There is a swing car in the playground. When children sit on it, they will swing back and forth like riding a horse, which is very exciting.

The little kid looked at the swaying car with shining eyes, and was obviously very interested.

Unfortunately, there is a height limit for the project. No matter how straight he straightens his back, he is still a little bit away from the safety line.

Xu Xiu looked at the eager little kid and rubbed his stomach with amusement:

"If Xiaorang eats well, he will definitely be tall enough next time."

Xu Zhirang nodded, prepared to watch the car for a while and then go play with building blocks.

The two men were squatting there, watching intently, when a young woman in uniform came over.

She has a proud figure, and the black and gold uniform tightly wraps around her hot body curves.

The woman stopped in front of Xu Zhirang.
