Chapter 40: Inexplicable tension
But Li Zhilin's text message did not calm me down, but made me more nervous. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info I don't know if it's an illusion, but I can clearly hear the sound of my heart beating in my chest. "Are you feeling unwell?" The stylist's assistant handed me a glass of water and looked at me with some concern. I glanced at myself in the mirror, my face pale, my purple lip biting, and I looked very uneasy. I didn't know how to answer this question, but I caught a glimpse of the eyes of Su Baichang's sister, who had been sitting next to me, who had been sitting under my nose, and her eyes rolled rapidly, and I knew that she had been watching us. Now, if I continue to be in this 'ready to fly' state of tension, I won't be in trouble again, but I'm pretty sure that this bad state will probably scare myself to death before the auction starts.
In order not to be embarrassed, I adjusted my mood, and before the assistant could speak again, I preemptively said: "Well, Mr. Designer, can't you really help me do my hair according to my own ideas?" ”
Everyone was confused by my question, the stylist seemed a little out of the stage, maybe there were really few people who opposed his proposal and put forward ideas, right? I guess in his mind, I should have been blacklisted as a customer. Sure enough, after a moment of silence, the stylist walked up to me with some embarrassment, and he cleared his throat to try to get me to accept his offer again: "This is the fashion trend of the year. ”
"I'm against the tide." I didn't mean to compromise in the slightest, "I still want you to help me fix the look I mentioned earlier when Hepburn eats breakfast in front of the window in "Breakfast at Tiffany's." That's my favorite look. Also, I wore a very similar outfit to him in that movie today. I turned my head to look more genuine, but it made it more difficult for the stylist.
Then Li Zhilin's sneer came from my ears: "Haha." ”
"What are you laughing at?" I looked at Li Zhilin with some displeasure.
Li Zhilin couldn't control his laughter, and his trembling shoulders made the teacher who was responsible for helping him do his hair stop his work a little helplessly. He waved apologetically at the teacher and assistant behind him before turning to me and saying, "Not all of the same style will look good." I know that hairstyle, but I don't think it's for you. Audrey Hepburn's facial features are very three-dimensional. ”
Li Zhilin's words pierced my heart like a sharp knife, directly hitting the flaws in my appearance. I smacked him for a moment, then blushed and stopped looking at him, slumped down in the modeling chair and said, "Okay, just toss my hair as you want." ”
"Ah, it's not like it can't be done according to your heart, we can make some adjustments to make your ideal hairstyle fit you." Probably because he was afraid that I would be really angry, the stylist tried to keep a gentle tone and found a compromise.
"Because my dress is also a black sleeveless dress, I wish I could be more like her. Our family loved her very much. I closed my eyes and completely gave up on my thoughts and agreed with the stylist's decision, "So I'll leave it to you today." ”
I heard the stylist behind me breathe a sigh of relief, thinking that he must be complaining in his heart that I was a very troublesome person. Although her eyes were closed, I could feel that Su Baichang's sister seemed to turn her head to look in my direction, but the moment she saw me open her eyes and look at her, she quickly closed her eyes and returned to the posture she had just had. I had a vague feeling that the woman sitting at the back seemed to know who we were, and unlike the nervousness I had shown before, I could perceive that her current mood could be called fear. She's been watching us secretly.
Sensing her mood swings, I relaxed, and when I closed my eyes and opened them again, I had become a different person in the mirror. The curly bangs are neatly combed in front of the forehead, and the long hair that is tied into a ponytail is neatly coiled at the back of the head, and a beautiful arc is drawn at the back of the head. The eyebrows have also been carefully repaired, and after the messy stray hairs are trimmed, the eyebrows have become much more neat, and the whole makeup is not stunning, but it also looks delicate and beautiful. Because he specially asked him to look more mature, the stylist only used a little gold to spit out the texture of the skin, and the eyeshadow and blush were all in a calmer earth tone, and the overall color was not too gaudy and exaggerated. I smiled at the 'strange sister' in the mirror, trying to adjust to the new image.
"It's beautiful." Li Zhilin also finished styling, and he had already changed into the dress he was going to wear at night and walked next to me. It is very different from him who was wearing casual clothes just now, because Li Zhilin is very tall, the well-cut suit makes his figure look more straight and slender, and the repaired hair and cheeks make his forehead look fuller, and his eyes are deeper than before. I crashed into his amber pupils, and I lost track of what to say for a moment.
Li Zhilin shook his hand in front of my eyes to make me come back to my senses, realizing my gaffe, I was a little embarrassed to turn my head and look at myself in the mirror again: "That, I mean I really look good now?" ”
Li Zhilin nodded: "It's really good-looking, do you want to change your clothes?" It's about the same time. He pointed to his watch and reminded me that a long time had passed.
When I left the modeling room, I subconsciously glanced to the left and saw that the woman who was sitting there had already left. And Li Zhilin, who was standing opposite me, also looked at the place where the woman had been before, he squinted his eyes, and then walked over and picked up a crystal buckle on the modeling table. "Is the lady sitting here gone?" Li Zhilin asked the stylist next to him.
The stylist nodded: "You left just now when you were changing clothes." As he spoke, he was about to take the buckle from Li Zhilin's hand. But Li Zhilin refused.
The stylist looked at Li Zhilin with a puzzled expression, and Li Zhilin hurriedly explained: "Ah, I'm sorry, I just had a hunch that I could meet this lady again." So, I want to hand over the clasp to this lady personally. But if she comes back to find something she left behind before I see her, you can give her my number. Li Zhilin casually wrote down his contact information on a sticky note, and then urged me to hurry up and change my dress.
When I came out of the locker room, I found Li Zhilin sitting outside at the bar reading the newspaper: "Are you satisfied?" He heard me walk over, put down the newspaper and asked me, and when his eyes fell on me, he opened his mouth in surprise, and his eyes were full of shock: "Oh, it's so beautiful." ”
His sincere tone made me twist a little, and I took the drink handed by Li Zhilin unnaturally, and used the cup to hide my face that was now flushed with shyness: "Thank you, I am also very satisfied with today's look." ”
"That's good." The stylist's voice came from behind him, "I saw that you didn't have an expression just now, and I was worried that you might not like this look, but now it seems that my taste is not as bad as you think." Modeling is such a thing, it is still necessary to communicate more to get a satisfactory result. ”
I knew that he still cared a little about my attitude and cold words at the beginning, so I turned my head and apologized and thanked him. The time was almost up, and Li Zhilin and I decided to leave immediately and rush to the auction venue.
When we walked out of the modeling house, Li Zhilin's car had been parked at the door of the store, and the parking boy handed the car key to Li Zhilin: "Thank you, I look forward to your next visit." ”
"You drove the car here?" Li Zhilin frowned, turned around and asked the parking brother. I instantly understood what Li Zhilin meant, and when I thought of the plot in the movie "The Godfather", my heart unconsciously lifted.
The little brother of the parking car was a little confused by the question, he touched the back of his head and nodded: "Yes." ”
"Got it." Li Zhilin took the keys, but didn't let me get into the car. He sat down in the driver's seat with a serious face and said to me standing outside the car, "Wait for me on the side of the road." With that, you slam the door on.
I walked briskly to the side of the road, watched from a distance as he drove the car not too close to me, then opened the door on my side from the inside, and after a while, beckoned me to come over. As I stepped into the passenger seat, he whispered in a deep voice, "I hope we both have good luck." ”
I sat in the passenger seat tremblingly, everything was safe, there was no explosion that I had guessed beforehand, I was relaxed and wanted to lean back of the seat, but realizing that I was now wearing a dress skirt that was prone to wrinkles, I forced myself to bounce back from the back of the seat and sit upright: "It's really troublesome." I whispered and took out my makeup mirror to check my hairstyle.
"You're afraid they'll plant a bomb?" I thought of Li Zhilin's serious expression just now, and I was also a little flustered.
"I'm a little worried, you don't know Su Baichang very well, he can do everything. But. Li Zhilin paused, and suddenly the corners of his mouth rose upward, and the arc became deeper and deeper, "I was so nervous just now, just to tease the acting skills I showed." It's a downtown area, and if he really planted a bomb and made a noise, don't you think he's digging his own grave? He is dangerous, not lacking in heart. I think you're too nervous, so I want to see what kind of routine you associate with when you see me just make such a weird move. As a result, your movie is so deeply poisoned that you can even pull out the bloody plot of planting bombs. You're so cute. After saying that, Li Zhilin couldn't stop laughing, which made me very embarrassed for a while.
"Drive your car well." I patted him while waiting for the red light, "I don't know if there is a bomb, but I know that if you drive like this, something even more bloody like car crashing and killing people will happen soon." ”
