Soon it was time for the makeup trial, and Anxin drove off early with Lengyue.

In the past two days, Ai Qingqing made several phone calls and sent countless WeChat messages to Leng Yue. At first, Leng Yue replied, but later she realized that Ai Qingqing was doing nothing wrong and kept subtly asking her about private matters.

Later, Leng Yue also got annoyed by Ai Qingqing and simply stopped paying attention to her.

When they arrived, Leng Yue learned that Ai Qingqing and Yu Luoluo had also come. Everyone gathered in the dressing room, waiting for the film crew's makeup artists to do their makeup.

During this time, Ai Qingqing hesitated, wanting to come over and greet Leng Yue, but then glanced at Liu Hu, looking troubled. Leng Yue smiled understandingly and made no further comment.

Liu Hu, on the other hand, initially made a few sarcastic remarks to Leng Yue and An Xin, but later, for some reason, he held back. He probably didn't want to cause any further trouble.

After a while, a staff member came in and said that director Lin Xing had arrived. Lin Xing asked all the selected artists to remove their makeup, apparently because they were required to audition without makeup.

Leng Yue exchanged a glance with An Xin but remained silent. Yu Luoluo frowned slightly, but her manager shook his head, so she didn't say anything. On the contrary, Ai Qingqing and Liu Hu kept complaining in hushed tones.

Perhaps fearing that they wouldn't remove their makeup thoroughly on their own, Lin Xing asked the crew's makeup artist to remove their makeup for them.

According to seniority, Yu Luoluo was the first to have her makeup removed. Leng Yue glanced at her and thought Yu Luoluo had a very good foundation. Her skin was smooth, her features delicate, with only a few small freckles. Overall, her skin transformation was quite good.

After Yu Luoluo, Ai Qingqing took the initiative, "Yueyue, I know your skin has never been very good, don't worry, I'm here with you! I'll show you how!"

Ai Qingqing's words were playful and intimate. At first glance, they seemed harmless, but upon closer inspection, they were simply saying that Leng Yue was ugly and had bad skin, so she could only be an artificial beauty.

Besides, by acting before Leng Yue, doesn't that demonstrate that she holds a higher status than Leng Yue?

They really have hidden tricks everywhere!

Leng Yue remained silent throughout, observing from the sidelines.

After waiting a while, Leng Yue understood why Ai Qingqing had been complaining in a low voice. It turned out that Ai Qingqing had broken out in pimples. Before, it was better with makeup, and after covering them up, they weren't very noticeable.

But after removing the makeup, it looks quite serious.

Ai Qingqing continued from where she left off, "Yueyue, are you not worried anymore? Look at my face, it looks like I'm disfigured..."

In this way, regardless of whether Leng Yue paid any attention to her, Ai Qingqing had managed to save face. Ai Qingqing acted straightforwardly and generously, and since her appearance after removing her makeup posed no threat to others, she actually earned a kind smile from Yu Luoluo's agent.

Leng Yue didn't say a word from beginning to end, just waiting for the makeup artist to remove her makeup.

"My goodness! Little sister, did you do this on purpose? What were you thinking, making yourself look ugly with makeup!" The makeup artist couldn't help but exclaim after removing Leng Yue's makeup.

Leng Yue glanced at the makeup artist's name tag, smiled, and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Sister Zhang."

The makeup artist shook her head and said with a smile, "If you don't know how to do makeup, I'll teach you next time. Honestly, you've ruined your own looks!"

Leng Yue smiled again upon hearing this.

Because of the makeup artist, everyone's attention was focused on Leng Yue's face. Yu Luoluo looked at her manager with some worry, but the manager still shook her head, telling her to stay calm.

Liu Hu looked on with envy and couldn't help but touch his face. Seeing everyone's expressions, Ai Qingqing dug her nails into her flesh and clenched her teeth.

She had originally intended to force a smile and joke with Leng Yue. But after trying several times, she simply couldn't manage a smile and gave up!

Soon the staff informed them to make final preparations.

Great directors are different; they don't need to perform or appear one by one, but rather have all three of them appear together.

Lin Xing looked at the three people in front of him and nodded. "You've all worked hard. I'll treat you to afternoon tea later."

After saying that, Lin Xing left, leaving the three bewildered people behind.

"Sister Luo Luo, can we go now?" Leng Yue was unsure of the situation and could only ask Luo Luo, who had the most experience.

Yu Luoluo also looked bewildered, shaking her head at Leng Yue. But Ai Qingqing looked at them with an air of confidence!

"Let's go, the director must have already made up his mind!" Ai Qingqing said, then turned and left briskly.

Ai Qingqing remembered that in the novel, Leng Yue used this trick to win over the director and finally got the role!

As someone with a God's-eye view, Ai Qingqing always felt a great sense of superiority!

When Leng Yue and Yu Luoluo saw Ai Qingqing return backstage, they exchanged a glance and then left together.

Yu Luoluo was initially somewhat wary of Leng Yue, after all, not everyone has such divine beauty.

But seeing Leng Yue's completely bewildered face from beginning to end, Yu Luoluo suddenly found Leng Yue so cute! Like a silly little rabbit who doesn't understand anything and just follows its parents to visit relatives!

Yu Luoluo became interested, "Which company do you work for? I've never seen you before."

"Huh?" Leng Yue was a little confused. The goddess had taken the initiative to talk to her? Leng Yue had always thought Yu Luoluo had a goddess-like aura! Unlike her, she had always been very rough!

Before she knew it, Leng Yue blurted out her true feelings. Upon hearing this, Yu Luoluo covered her mouth and laughed.

"Um, Sister Luo Luo, you don't think I'm flattering you, do you? I really didn't!" Leng Yue said somewhat awkwardly, "Don't misunderstand, I..."

"Okay, okay, I know," Yu Luoluo said with a smile. "I didn't misunderstand. You don't look good like this. You should pay more attention to your image."

Upon hearing this, Leng Yue immediately put down her hand that was scratching her head, straightened her back, pulled in her stomach, and lifted her buttocks. In an instant, she transformed into an elegant fairy! "Sister Luo Luo, you're right. I can't be as carefree as before."

Yu Luolu shook her head and smiled.

Back in the dressing room, she asked with concern, "How did it go? What did the director say?"

Leng Yue shook her head. "The director only said he was inviting everyone to afternoon tea."

The same was true for Yu Luoluo. An Xin and Yu Luoluo's agent exchanged glances, both completely bewildered.

The group waited for half an hour before the staff finally delivered coffee, milk tea, and egg waffles. They brought enough for six people, but Ai Qingqing and Liu Hu had already left.

The remaining four people ate the food together.

During the conversation, Leng Yue and Yu Luoluo got along very well, and not only did they exchange contact information, but their respective agents also exchanged business cards.

After finishing their afternoon tea, the four of them left together.

On the way back, An Xin chatted with Leng Yue while driving. "Do you think the director will choose you?"

It's no wonder An Xin couldn't keep her composure; she had been away from the workplace for too long, and this was her first battle since her return.

Leng Yue shook her head. Although she felt that An Xin's question was somewhat inappropriate, she wasn't angry.

Leng Yue comforted An Xin, "An Xin, don't worry. You said I have both good looks and acting skills, so there shouldn't be any major problems. Don't worry!"

Anxin could only nod.
