Bright time

Two full hours later, Le Ying stood in front of the full-length mirror.

She didn't even recognize herself a little bit.

Her long hair is all up, her makeup is the most popular retro makeup nowadays, thick black eyebrows, white face and red lips, the dress on her body is tight and fit, wrapping her figure exquisitely, the dress color is pure black without decoration, There is only a narrow and long opening on the chest, which is sewn together with golden tulle and wraps all the way to the waist, adding a faint slit.

The stylist is a very young man, probably because of a small beard on his chin, Le Ying heard everyone affectionately call him "Mustache".

Standing on one side, Mustache carefully looked at Le Ying, and finally nodded with satisfaction.

"Well, yes, the result is better than I imagined."

Jian Shu also looked at Le Ying seriously, and after reading it, she turned her face to Mustache and said, "Consider that I owe you a favor."

Favor?

It seems tricky.

Le Ying also turned his gaze away.

But Mustache showed a disapproving expression.

"Come on. How much do you owe me?"

But Jian Shu smiled: "After that, you won't be polite, I will continue to owe it. As for not paying it back, you don't care anyway, right?"

Le Ying on the side was secretly surprised.

How could someone like Jian Shu make such a rogue joke? !

Moreover, Jian Shu...she even laughed.

Le Ying was a little distracted.

Maybe it was because Jian Shu was going to attend the reception with Le Ying later, she also dressed up a little bit, put on some light makeup, not as rigid as usual, and changed into a simple off-white jumpsuit The dress and hair are all coiled up, but the pair of eye-catching glasses are still there.However, Jian Shu's overall feeling at this moment is softer and gentler than usual.Looking at the faint smile on Jian Shu's face, Le Ying couldn't help drawing a picture in her heart, if she untied Jian Shu's hair, took off her glasses, and let her smile at herself...

— what would that look like?

The stylist, Mustache, has already started ordering those under him to pack up.He naturally also heard Jian Shu's joke, but he didn't show any dissatisfaction on his face, instead he seemed hesitant to speak, hesitating, and didn't speak for a long time, until the end, He still didn't say anything, just sighed: "Oh, forget it..."

"What's the matter?"

After listening for a long time, Le Ying finally spoke a word.

"Hey!" Mustache looked at Le Ying and said something inexplicable, "Speaking of it, it's your fault."

"Me?" Le Ying didn't understand at all.

Blame her?Blame her for what?

"If it wasn't for some inexplicable reason to take over you again, Xiao Shu could..."

"Okay." Jian Shu interrupted Mustache, and frowned, "You're done, so go back early. I won't delay your great 'money' journey."

"Okay, okay." Mustache stopped talking, waved his hand, and urged the people under him, "They've already kicked them out, so hurry up and clean them up."

When everyone left, only Le Ying and Jian Shu were left in the dressing room.

It was dark already.

Jian Shu looked at the time, it was probably still early, so she didn't speak, but sat down, and then raised her head to look at Le Ying who was standing still in the same place.

"Take a break. In addition, you have to make some mental preparations first."

The mental preparation that Jian Shu mentioned naturally meant that Le Ying would meet the investor boss she had slapped again at the reception later.But Le Ying has no mind to think about "psychological preparation" at all now, because the half-sentence that Mustache just said made her unable to concentrate on thinking about the reception.

If it wasn't for taking over her, Jian Shu could...

What can I do?

"Jane Shu."

"Ok?"

Jian Shu raised his head slightly, with some doubts in his eyes.I don't know if it's because he's been too busy these days, but at this time, under the high-brightness white light in the dressing room, Jian Shu's complexion looks a little pale, and there is a faint look of fatigue in his eyebrows and eyes.Le Ying's heart couldn't help but soften a little, and she didn't know how to speak for a while.

"What's wrong?" Seeing her like this, Jian Shu guessed, "It's still not good?"

"……no?"

Le Ying repeated it inexplicably, but she quickly understood that what Jian Shu said was that she would face the investor at the reception later, so she quickly replied: "I will try my best, maybe... May be."

"Maybe?" Jian Shu frowned again, "'Maybe' is not enough."

"Then..." Le Ying was a little annoyed, "Then what do you think of me?"

"Defeat it."

What if you can't win?

Le Ying didn't say it, but she could imagine that if she really asked, Jian Shu would probably answer her with "no if", or "that must be done".

Leying took a deep breath.

But Jian Shu stood up and looked at the time again.

"It's still early, but we can go there first."

After Jian Shu finished speaking, she walked forward a few steps, but when she reached the door, she stopped suddenly.

"By the way, you don't have to pay attention to what the mustache just said."

Now that Jian Shu mentioned this, Le Ying naturally asked, "What did he mean by that? If you didn't take over from me, you could..." After the "yes", Le Ying said not coming out.Because she didn't know what Jian Shu would be like without her existence.However, Jian Shu quickly answered her: "It's not a big deal, it's just that he thought about leaving this industry at the time, probably because Mustache misunderstood something."

Jian Shu's answer was light, as if it was really just a trivial matter.

But Ke Leying faintly felt that something must have happened before Jian Shu took over her, and that incident had a great impact on Jian Shu, so much that she wanted to give up this job she had worked hard for for five years. career.

"Let's go."

Jian Shu urged.

The location of the celebratory reception for the filming of "Beauty Song" was set in a certain investor's villa area, called Tianxin Garden.This place is located in a remote place, and after leaving the main city, the car windows are desolate along the way.It wasn't until the car drove into the gate of the villa area that Le Ying felt some atmosphere.The entrance of Tianxin Garden is brightly lit, and there are luxury cars lined up on both sides. As for the people passing through it, apart from wealthy businessmen and bosses, they are young women of all kinds.

When Le Ying got out of the car, she looked a little dazed.

Everything in front of her felt very familiar to her, as if everything had returned to more than a month ago.

"It's time to go in."

The only difference is probably that the person who is by her side now is Jian Shu.

"Ah."

Le Ying nodded, followed behind Jian Shu, and walked slowly forward.

The reception was very grand. The independent director of "Beauty Song" is well-known in the industry and has a good reputation. In addition, the largest investor of this film is the director of the leading financial group in China, which has attracted a large number of flatterers.

Although Jian Shu is usually more serious, when it comes to this kind of occasion, he also knows that as a manager, he should go around socializing and foster relationships.So, as soon as the two entered the hall, Jian Shu told Le Ying a few simple words, and then walked away.

And Le Ying soon discovered many familiar faces.

In addition to the starring role of this movie itself, there are actually many first-tier and second-tier female artists and celebrities in the industry, even Bai Youning, who has long been known as an international movie star, also came.She was wearing a long off-the-shoulder dress with deep purple dark patterns, and she had a decent smile on her face. She was accompanying a middle-aged man and walked in from the door.

What surprised Leying the most was that her friend Cen Dandan also came.

Cen Dandan wore a pink short dress, dressed very playfully and cutely.As soon as she entered the hall, she looked around first, and finally, her eyes fell on Le Ying, and she quickly smiled and walked towards Le Ying.

"Why did you come?"

"Oh, even Bai Youning is here, so of course I want to join in the fun." Cen Dandan said while looking at Leying with a smile, "Well, it's very good, with a unique temperament, outstanding, and eye-catching memorable."

"……What's the meaning?"

Le Ying felt that there was something in Cen Dandan's words.

"Red lips, black dress, pale face..." Cen Danbai said exaggeratedly, "Don't you look like the scariest bad witch in fairy tales? Your positioning is very accurate."

"..."

Le Ying almost choked to death by Cen Dan's words.

"Just kidding." Cen Dandan pulled Le Ying's arm and laughed in a low voice, "Actually, your outfit...is really pretty, it suits you very well."

"What are the two beauties laughing at? They are smiling so happily, why don't you tell me to smile too." A slightly familiar voice suddenly came from behind, interrupting the sisters of Le Ying and Cen Dandan intimacy.

Before turning around, Le Ying recognized who it was.

Not for anything else, just because this person once said viciously that she is suitable to be a dancer.

——It was Xi Yuan who had a pretty face, but insisted on acting as Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.

"Miss Le, do you remember me?"

I don't know if Le Ying had a too subjective impression of Xi Yuan first, but seeing the smile on Xi Yuan's face that was praised by the female audience as "handsome and charming", Le Ying only had one feeling——

This man is really annoying.

"Remember."

Le Ying deliberately emphasized the tone, which was meaningful.

"Just remember..." Xi Yuan followed her tone and said with a meaningful smile, "But it's a pity that you didn't become the heroine's dancer. I think you are there I did a great job at the first audition."

"Thank you."

"Also, I hope to be able to be with Miss Le..." Xi Yuan suddenly extended his hand to her, "We can become friends."

"..."

Le Ying didn't move.

"What? You don't know? Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and Mingyu had a lot of rivalry." Xi Yuan didn't take his hand back, but then said to Le Ying with a smile, "You still have to dance a dance to seduce me. .”

At this time, Le Ying remembered what Jian Shu told her before leaving.

——"In this circle, one more friend means one less enemy. No matter who comes to you tonight, you must remember this sentence."

"Very glad..." Le Ying finally handed out her hand, "Knowing you."
