Chapter 79: While There Is Life, The Fight Continues
The entertainment circle usually marketed young girls with innocent, young, and girlish personas. Those with high and cold temperaments like her were rare since it was hard for them to appeal to the audience.
Shen Xi smiled without a word.
“This way, Ms. Cai Ni.” Chen Nan was surprised by her calm temperament.
Not many people acted like her and remained calm even when humiliated. It was clear just by looking at the over-forty-years-old Film Empress in the dressing room.
Even after fighting for over twenty years, she was still fighting.
It was truly the embodiment of the idiom ‘while there is life, the fight continues’!
Gong Zhi was very beautiful. Even without makeup and dressing up, she still looked very beautiful. However, the lines at the corners of her eyes and eyebrows betrayed her true age.
Her beauty was not the quiet beauty accumulated by the flow of time, but a flamboyant kind of beauty, similar to Gao Meng’s temperament. However, her facial features were not as delicate and young as Gao Meng’s, and her face was not as fair and clear as before.
“Ms. Gong Zhi, let’s start!” Shen Xi did not beat around the bush and got to work.
There was not much time to waste. She wanted to create the most perfect look for Gong Zhi to stun Li Jingran and make it so people would be unable to tear their eyes away from Gong Zhi.
“Cai Ni, was it? I’m not joking with you. If you can’t satisfy me—” Gong Zhi’s eyes carried an obvious fire. “You can say goodbye to any future in showbiz.”
“Don’t worry, Ms. Gong Zhi. I won’t disappoint my teacher’s reputation.” Shen Xi smiled.
It was the first time Gong Zhi had seen such a beautiful girl. She was so young, yet she was standing calmly in front of her. Gong Zhi started to have some trust and expectations for her. “Then let’s start!”
Shen Xi did not have any special equipment either. Since it was last minute, she just had people buy some cosmetics, curling irons, hairdryers, and other essentials. She could not say she was a stylist if she did not bring any professional equipment!
Gong Zhi did not hold back and revealed her hopes. “Rest assured and style the way you want to. I won’t ask for anything else. As long as you can make me overshadow Li Jingran, You will be my chief designer in the future. I won’t treat you badly.”
Shen Xi said, “Thank you for your offer, Ms. Gong Zhi, but I’m still studying. I have no plans to enter the circle so early.
“But you’re so beautiful. Haven’t you ever thought about entering showbiz?” It was the first time Gong Zhi genuinely praised someone for their beauty.
Some people were just beautiful.
Some people desperately told people they were beautiful.
The girl in front of her belonged to the former. She was already beautiful. Unlike Gong Zhi, the girl did not have to tell others that she was beautiful.
“Showbiz is too complicated for me.” Shen Xi smiled.
“That’s true. Just follow after your teacher. You won’t earn less than us. There are better options, so why wade through the muddy waters of showbiz?” A teasing look flashed in Gong Zhi’s eyes.
Shen Xi realized that Gong Zhi was not the drop-dead gorgeous, arrogant, stuck-up and bad-tempered person from the rumors. Her temper was actually very straightforward. It was just that she did not mince her words.
From 2:00 pm to 5:00 pm, it took three hours for Shen XI to finish Gong Zhi’s red carpet look.
From the makeup to her clothes and shoes, everything was handled by Shen Xi.
Gong Zhi looked at herself in the mirror with eyes full of amazement. It took a long time before she snapped back to reality.
The makeup was beautiful. It was open and flirtatious, the kind of beauty that was full of charm and amorousness.
She had never liked black dresses before, because she felt that black was too low-key. She liked bright colors instead.
However, the black dress she was wearing now perfectly set off her aggressive beauty in just the right way.
She finally understood what it meant to be a knockout beauty.
