Chapter 468 Tears Flowed from the Corners of His Mouth
Sister Yao's eyes lit up slightly. She had only asked casually, and getting ten boxes today was already an unexpected surprise for her. Her previous expectation was that she would be lucky to buy three or four boxes.
"Then I'll buy ten boxes first. If they work well, I'll order more from you. You have to save some for me."
"good."
Gao Min came with Ye Wanxi today. Seeing Ye Wanxi deposit a million yuan into her account in just a few words, Gao Min secretly resented the rich, and finally understood what Ye Wanxi had said that day.
That was a real million, not ten or twenty thousand. Sister Yao paid it off without even blinking. Can an ordinary makeup artist be that rich?
The others in the room admired and envied it, but when it came to actually spending 100,000 yuan on such a small box of things, they were really reluctant.
Moreover, all those functions and effects are just Yao Jie talking about. She has only used it once. Who knows if it is really effective or just a flash in the pan?
Unless they are desperate, most people are still somewhat wary of the unknown.
Of course, there were also one or two people who had "blind" confidence in Ye Wanxi, such as...
"Wanxi..."
Ye Wanxi turned her head and saw Yun Youna standing not far away, grinning foolishly at her.
"..."
After a moment of silence, Ye Wanxi said with a mix of amusement and helplessness, "I know, I know, I saved it for you."
As soon as he finished speaking, he took out a box of medicinal mud from his bag and handed it to her.
Yun Yuna hurriedly took it, but was not satisfied. She still looked at Ye Wanxi longingly, then held up one finger and said, "Can I... have another box?"
"For your sister?"
"Uh-huh."
Ye Wanxi smiled and teased her, "Aren't you afraid that my 'three-no' product is unreliable and will harm you and your sister?"
"Hey!" Yun Youna waved her hand dismissively. "Wasn't that lucky charm you had before also a counterfeit product? It still worked so well that even Director Jiao became your die-hard fan. We're so close now, I trust your abilities and, more importantly, your character. Anything you're willing to buy must be guaranteed. Why not take advantage of this opportunity before it's discovered by others? Are you going to regret it later?"
Ye Wanxi was amused by her undisguised flattery: "Alright, alright, for your sincerity and trust, I'll give you another box."
"Thank you, boss! Boss is the best! Boss is the greatest!" Yun Yuna snatched the second box of medicinal mud into her arms in a flash, afraid that Ye Wanxi would change her mind.
After completing the transfer properly, she felt relieved and said with a bright smile, "By the way, my sister asked me to bring you some things. They're in my lounge. Come with me."
As the female lead in the drama, Yun Youna enjoys a private dressing room, which can be considered a privilege. Even if some people complain behind her back, it is an undeniable fact.
Yun Yuna couldn't wait to give Ye Wanxi the things her older sister had given her, so she pulled her out of the dressing room.
After the two left, someone in the corner of the dressing room muttered sarcastically, "It works so fast, who knows how many hormones were added? It's one thing to pay for this 'stupidity tax,' but when your face rots, you'll have nowhere to cry."
After Ye Wanxi and the other person left, the room was quiet as no one spoke. This person thought he was muttering quietly, but in fact everyone could hear him clearly.
The atmosphere in the room froze instantly. All the makeup artists stopped what they were doing, and the actors, who had been quietly getting their makeup done with their eyes closed, subconsciously opened their eyes, wanting to see who this "warrior" who dared to speak out was.
But despite their observations, no one echoed her views; in fact, some of the more astute individuals unanimously decided to distance themselves from the crowd.
In the entertainment industry, you can be foolish or ruthless, but you can't be both. Otherwise, it's a small matter if you get yourself into trouble, but it would be a big problem if you dragged others into it.
After the actress in the corner finished muttering to herself, she realized that no one in the room was agreeing with her. After the initial embarrassment, her face grew even uglier, and her resentment towards Ye Wanxi and Yun Youna deepened.
However, what she didn't notice was that just as she was speaking, one person after another happened to return and stand outside the door.
Sister Yao had just finished a phone call with her friend to tell her the good news when she came back and heard someone cursing her for paying an "intelligence tax" and saying her face would rot away.
Sister Yao's face instantly darkened. Upon closer inspection of the speaker, she realized that he was indeed one of the people who had mistakenly believed Ye Wanxi was in trouble and had rushed to Director Jiao to offer herself to him.
Noticing this, Sister Yao's eyes narrowed dangerously.
Ye Wanxi was completely unaware of what was happening in the dressing room; she was currently busy unpacking the little gift that her sister Yun Youna had given her.
“My sister knows you like to eat delicate pastries when you have nothing to do, so she cooked a few desserts for you herself. Try them and see if they suit your taste.”
Yun Yuna handed over a multi-tiered pastry box, which looked quite substantial from the outside.
Ye Wanxi obliged and opened each one to take a look. There were cookies, water chestnut cake, egg yolk pastry, flower cake, cloud cake, chestnut cake, and so on.
The thoughtfulness of the gift-giver can be seen from the variety of the pastries and their appearance.
Ye Wanxi couldn't resist picking up a chestnut cake and taking a bite. It was sweet but not greasy, with a soft outer layer, and very delicious.
"How was it? How was it?"
"Delicious! Did your sister make all of this herself?"
"That's right, she made them all herself. My sister is very good at making pastries, but she doesn't usually like to make them. She only makes them once in a while to give us a treat. This time, she made them especially for you, so none of us got any."
As Yun Yuna spoke, she kept peering longingly into the box. Ye Wanxi suspected that if she looked any longer, tears would well up in her eyes.
Here, eat.
Yun Yuna froze, her hand almost instinctively reaching out, but she quickly withdrew it halfway: "No, no, no, this was made especially for you, I can't eat it."
Ye Wanxi rolled her eyes at her: "Eat up, there's so much, I definitely can't finish it all by myself, and it can't be left for too long, otherwise it will all go to waste."
Yun Yuna began to waver wildly.
"If you don't eat it, I'll take it and give it to the other people in the crew later."
"No!" Yun Yuna surrendered instantly, quickly grabbed a cookie and stuffed it into her mouth, looking at her with eyes that said, "You're really wasting a good thing."
"Oh, right, and this too." Yun Yuna took out another bouquet of flowers, with an envelope on top of them.
Ye Wanxi picked up the envelope, opened it, and found a small red packet and a thank-you note inside.
“My sister knows that you persuaded my brother-in-law, so she specially asked me to bring these gifts to you to thank you for speaking up for him.”
Ye Wanxi glanced at the contents of the letter and said with a faint smile, "It was your brother-in-law who came to his senses. I didn't actually do anything. Your sister's gift was too generous; I felt a little ashamed to accept it."
