The eye-catching headline in large bold letters read: "700 million cubic meters! Banqiao Reservoir kills in 6 hours!"
When Shao Jingque saw the words "Banqiao Reservoir", his memory became clearer.
As reported, in just 6 hours, 700 million cubic meters of flood water poured down from the Banqiao Reservoir, and the 830 square kilometers of land in Suiping County downstream was instantly turned into a vast ocean. Wherever the flood passed, all villages, large and small, were wiped out.
And this was just the beginning of this major disaster.
Within just a few hours, dozens of large, medium and small reservoirs collapsed one after another, and nearly 6 billion cubic meters of floods raged across an area of more than 10,000 square kilometers.
Shao Jingque felt as if hundreds of needles were pricking her heart. Banqiao Reservoir was one of the two largest reservoirs she had mentioned to Lu Zhan.
The Banqiao Reservoir collapsed. Does that mean that even if she informed Lu Zhan, it still could not change the inevitable outcome of the historical process?
She had originally planned to go to the military district to find Yao Wenbin before going to work to confirm the news in the newspaper last night about the officers and soldiers losing contact, but now she felt like backing out.
She lowered her eyelids, folded the newspaper and put it in her bag, then turned and walked towards the art troupe.
It was still early and most people were having breakfast in the cafeteria. Shao Jingque had no appetite so he went straight to the dressing room backstage.
Just as she sat down, a soft voice timidly sounded behind her:
"Sister Jingque..."
Shao Jingque turned around and found that it was Fang Ya. She was holding a simple makeup box in her hand and looked a little at a loss.
Usually, Liu Cuirong took care of Shao Jingque's makeup. Fang Ya just helped out and never took the initiative to talk to her. It was a little surprising that she took the initiative to greet her like today.
"Xiaoya, good morning."
Shao Jingque curled the corners of her mouth. She had a good impression of Fang Ya. She was quiet and gentle, and her movements were efficient and diligent.
When Fang Ya heard Shao Jingque call her "Xiao Ya", two blushes immediately appeared on her face, which was originally very nervous - Sister Jingque was really beautiful and kind-hearted. She called her so affectionately. She had never heard Liu Cuirong call her that before. Liu Cuirong either called her "Hey" or "Hey", as if she just treated her as something that could be summoned and dismissed at will.
Seeing Shao Jingque smiling at her, Fang Ya also smiled and mustered up the courage to test him:
"Sister Jingque, today...can I help you put on your makeup?"
Shao Jingque raised her eyebrows. Fang Ya had surprised her twice today.
I didn't expect that Fang Ya, who usually dared not to say a word in front of Liu Cuirong, would actually take the initiative to snatch Liu Cuirong's work?
However, Shao Jingque herself didn't care much about who did her makeup. If Fang Ya didn't do it well, she could just fix it herself. Liu Cuirong's level was just so-so anyway, not as good as hers. She was just too lazy to do it herself.
Shao Jingque kindly wanted to give Fang Ya a chance and encourage her to have the rare courage to fight for herself.
She didn't hesitate much and agreed in a relaxed tone:
"Sure, I haven't seen your cooking skills yet."
Fang Ya seemed to have not expected Shao Jingque to agree to her request so easily. She was so surprised that she was stunned for a while before she blushed and thanked him repeatedly:
"Thank you, Sister Jingque. I will do my makeup well! Seriously!"
Every time Liu Cuirong put on makeup for someone, she deliberately kept silent and didn't teach. Fang Ya would help her while watching carefully. Then she would practice on her own face. After joining the art troupe for two months, she felt that her makeup skills had improved a lot.
However, Liu Cuirong seemed to be deliberately making things difficult for her. She never gave her the opportunity to put on makeup for the main actors in the troupe. She even used this as an excuse to criticize her in her application for regularization, saying that her makeup skills had not improved at all. As a result, she failed to become a regular employee for two consecutive months.
It was the last month of her probation period. If she still couldn't get a permanent job, she would be sent back to her hometown, so Fang Ya mustered up the courage to give it a try.
If even the mainstay of the art troupe was satisfied with her makeup, what reason did Liu Cuirong have to write a bad review for her in her application for regularization?
Looking at Shao Jingque sitting there with her eyes closed, her curly eyelashes hanging on her delicate skin, Fang Ya's heart and hands trembled a little, for fear that her hands would be too heavy and cause Shao Jingque's dissatisfaction.
Fortunately, Shao Jingque did not show any displeasure throughout the whole process and did not make any noise to disturb her, so Fang Ya's nervous mood slowly relaxed.
She painted with great concentration, her movements light and gentle, as if she was painting a fine work of art.
After a long while, Shao Jingque heard a faint joyful voice in his ears:
"Sister Jingque, the makeup is done!"
I have to say that Fang Ya's speed in putting on makeup needs to be improved. Shao Jingque didn't sleep well last night, and he almost fell asleep when he closed his eyes waiting for her to put on makeup.
But Shao Jingque could understand it. As a novice, it was inevitable that he would be nervous. As the saying goes, slow work makes fine work.
hiss--
If Shao Jingque's psychological quality had not been trained by Lin Qiao, the moment he opened his eyes, he would definitely be scared to death!
On a pale face, two shiny black sickle-shaped eyebrows, purple-red eyeshadow shines brightly on the eyelids, and the thick black eyeliner makes her already big eyes even more "bright", which can compete with the glaring door gods posted on the doors during the New Year. The most eye-catching thing is the two symmetrical blushes on her cheeks, which occupy more than half of her cheeks. Her lips are also bright and plump as expected.
Fang Ya looked at her "work" with joy, and asked excitedly and expectantly:
"Sister Jingque, what do you think?"
