41. A quiet life has waves
My life has returned to the previous step-by-step state, going to work, practicing cars, learning to paint, working as a full-time nanny and masseur for Jiang Shuiyue (free), and occasionally finding time to make up for people to earn some extra money.
Although Lin Yushi had to count me every day and I didn't have to worry about driving, I still passed the test successfully and will soon be able to get my driver's license.
Although the art teacher Ren Ran also criticized me every day, he told his classmates behind his back that if I could concentrate on learning to paint, the future of art would be limitless, but I just wanted to learn the basic skills and help me put on makeup.
When Ms. He Ping came back from Korea, she was amazed at my makeup skills, and I began to believe that my level had improved. However, I still don't have the courage to ask myself how the makeup I painted at the end of the crew of "Oriental Dazzling". Occasionally, I'll give those six makeup artists a call to get in touch with them and ask for some knowledge.
When many colleagues in the company are fine, they secretly come to me to help them put on makeup, and if they meet any important customers, they will ask me to put on makeup, participate in parties, dates, major family banquets, etc., and will also pull me to their homes to put on makeup. Some people say that the makeup I paint is reluctant to wash it when I go to bed at night, and some say that the makeup I paint makes her suffer from narcissism, and she always likes to be self-absorbed in front of the mirror.
But I didn't get carried away by any compliments, and I found more and more that this is a road with no end, and there are strong players in the strong. I am so willing to put on makeup for them, it is a serious selfishness, so that I can analyze different faces, accumulate experience, and improve myself. I began to slowly understand why Dang Hanye said that if you have makeup or no makeup, you will become the highest level of makeup artist.
What's a little special is that Mr. He's temper seems to have changed a bit. Her bad temper and bad popularity are well-known in the company, and no one will walk into our office unless they have to. In the past, when the company came to me at the same time, they didn't dare to talk to me in the office, and they would call me out, which inevitably caused Teacher He to lose his temper and scold people, let alone twitter in front of her. But recently, even when I brought my colleagues into the office to put on makeup, and even used Teacher He's tools, she didn't scold me, and sometimes she even guided me.
Jiang Shuiyue is still "fooling around" with Yao Zengzhe, although they say that it is a relationship, but I think that bypassing the cold night of the party is betrayal and fooling. Yao Zengzhe often stays at Jiang Shuiyue's house, and I not only have to cook for Jiang Shuiyue, but also cook for him. I wondered, when they got married, would they keep me at home as a free babysitter? If that's the case, I'll be miserable, and I'm still counting on Jiang Shuiyue to get married and let me get out of this life of infernal purgatory.
My parents called me many times to go back to teaching, and I was assigned a job, so of course I wouldn't go back. It's just that I can't rest assured of my younger brother, and I often persuade my parents not to spoil him too much, I don't know if it has any effect.
There are occasionally some small waves in this ordinary life, such as today, May Day, and legal holidays, and I am still working overtime. Cheng Song called me to ask for dinner. I really didn't want to provoke a woman like Feng Xia, but I couldn't find a reason to refuse, so I hesitated and agreed.
After painting makeup at the shooting site of a famous brand clothing advertisement, Cheng Song came to pick me up, the male star who shot the advertisement was very familiar with Cheng Song, they chatted a few words, and at the end, the actor asked Cheng Song what he was doing, Cheng Song pointed to me and said: "Come and pick up my friend." ”
Although his words were inconspicuous, they attracted the attention of everyone present, and I immediately became the focus. I was suddenly a little scared, Cheng Song is a popular male star, and it is common for me to be chased and intercepted by the paparazzi and secretly photographed, will I be secretly photographed when I am with him and become the headline of tomorrow's entertainment version? Why am I always stupid and provoke such a person on the cusp? My heart is in remorse.
Cheng Song didn't know why I was stunned, took my hand and said, "Let's go, Xiaoxue, there are still a few friends waiting for us." ”
I subconsciously withdrew my hand from his hand, maybe this was the first time he was refused to hold hands by a girl, I saw a little embarrassed smile on his face, and then made a gesture of please, I hurriedly walked out of the studio with him, leaving a sigh behind.
Cheng Song took me to a villa-style hotel called Yanxia Villa, where the flowing water bridge pavilion is beautiful, I can't believe that this is a hotel, a place to eat and stay, I think it should be a tourist attraction or a royal back garden, it completely subverted my understanding of the hotel.
We sat down in a pavilion with a dingdong stream flowing next to it, and there were already three people waiting. One of them is Xu Lixiang, the photographer of the crew of "Oriental Dazzling", I know him, and he also warmly beckoned me to sit down, and then said: "Xiaoxue, your face is really big, Ah Cheng specially invited you today, let us accompany you." Usually he invites me to come to such an upscale place, and he drinks beer at the food stalls. ”
I naturally didn't believe what he said, why did Cheng Song come to such a high-end place to invite me, and let them be accompanied by these big-name figures?
Cheng Song was noncommittal to Xu Lixiang's words, and only introduced me: "Xiaoxue, this big sister is Zhang Yue, a fashion designer. This is my good friend Liu Lian, a playwright. ”
I said hello one by one before sitting down. Xu Lixiang is a self-acquaintance, he was so busy when he was in the crew, I didn't find him so talkative, but at this time his words are like the water of the Yellow River, and he is out of control.
"Xiaoxue come, be next to me, first drink a cup of tea to quench your thirst, this is the best Lushan clouds, with beauty effects, girls drink the most suitable, usually Ah Cheng invites us to be reluctant to call such a good tea......
Cheng Song interrupted Xu Lixiang: "Shut your mouth, it's more troublesome than the cicadas on the tree." ”
Xu Lixiang didn't get angry or refute, and was really quiet for a while. We all had the opportunity to order a few dishes together. I heard the sound of guzheng playing in the distance, which should be the singing of the guests at dinner, and I remembered the father and daughter who sang in the town of Guanxi in "Water Margin". I don't know if this society is progressing or regressing, I come from the bottom of the society, I know the life of the poorest, and here I also know how luxurious the rich are. In this materialistic society, human beings are like a boat without a helmsman, and they don't know where they will drift. People without faith are empty and terrible, and what is my faith? Thinking of faith, the resolute face of the cold night of the party came to mind, what was he doing? Today...... May Day! A cold sweat broke out on my spine.
“…… Xiaoxue, you have a big problem, but it really stumped the King of Han Yama. ”
I don't know when Xu Lixiang kept saying again. When he mentioned the cold night of the party, I couldn't help but be concerned, the photographer should be very familiar with the director, and he must know his situation.
"Why did I stump the cold guide?"
"Remember you, the last makeup you drew on the crew, right?"
I nodded, of course I remember, I was always worried, but I didn't dare to ask.
"We now have two opinions, and the Conservatives used the first day to shoot the scene where you didn't make up. The Innovation Party wants to use the one you wrote. The party is now in a dilemma, and there is no way to choose. Hey, I've known him for so long, and it's the first time I've seen him make such a big difficulty...... You're amazing! How did you come up with the idea to paint the heroine's lips silvery-white? With that kind of plot and that bad environment, it's just a unity of heaven and man! The Conservative Party said that you were fooling around, which would spoil the tone of the whole film, and the Innovative Party said that you were acting from the bottom of your heart according to the plot, which would make the whole film shine. Dang Hanye is now so anxious that he scratches his head and scratches his ears......"
I was no longer in the mood to listen to his nonsense, and I didn't care about any politeness, so I interrupted him and said, "What is Director Han doing now?" ”
"If we can't solve the problems at home, we will flee abroad to relax."
"Abroad, to the United States?"
"You know what?"
"I'll ask you." I don't care about being humble and reserved, almost just roaring.
He was perhaps taken aback by me, and said inexplicably, "It's going to the United States, New York." ”
New York!!!!!
"Have you arrived?" I desperately hope that he has arrived safely and that perhaps history will turn a corner.
"It's time to get on the plane, and he drove to the airport when I came out of the company just now."
It's time to go to the airport! I stood up and ran, regardless of everything behind me.
