Chapter 88 Help Me
Liu Cuicui nodded, "Yes, I'm not used to using other people's cosmetics. I feel more at ease with my own products when it comes to my face."
The cosmetics of this era were not as abundant as those in later generations.
Most of them are drawing eyebrows, applying powder, blush, and lipstick.
Jiang Cha took out another box of blush and looked at it carefully.
The more I look at it, the more it seems wrong.
"Don't use your stuff for now, use my mother's!"
Jiang Cha closed Liu Cuicui's makeup bag again, and accurately took out Ye Surong's makeup bag from a table piled with bells and other miscellaneous items.
"My mother has sensitive skin, and the cosmetics she uses are all homemade. They not only look good on her face, but they also protect her skin. Your skin is in its current state and cannot be irritated by external substances."
Liu Cuicui didn't think much about it, but when she looked at the skin condition of Jiang Cha and Ye Surong, she knew that what Jiang Cha said was true.
"It must be something good if it's made by my aunt. I believe you."
She handed Ye Surong's cosmetics to the makeup teacher, "Teacher, thank you for your help!"
Liu Cuicui was putting on makeup, and Jiang Cha was not in a hurry to leave.
She still held Liu Cuicui's cosmetics and studied them carefully.
Huo Jingchuan leaned his head forward.
"Is there something wrong with this thing?"
Jiang Cha nodded, "Something's wrong."
I don't know what these two people were talking about when they got together.
When Bai Shuyao came from Jiang Cha to treat Liu Cuicui's face, she had been looking for an opportunity to swap Liu Cuicui's cosmetics.
She didn't expect that Huo Jingchuan would keep staring at the backstage without relaxing for a moment.
Bai Shuyao was under psychological pressure and finished her chorus performance. She felt very uneasy while sitting in the front audience seats watching the performance.
She was sitting with Cen Yu, who was originally too lazy to pay attention to her. However, Bai Shuyao's guilty look was too obvious, which made Cen Yu unable to resist teasing her.
He put his lips to Bai Shuyao's ear and whispered devilishly.
"It's not even night yet, and you're already so naughty?"
Bai Shuyao's face turned pale, fearing that his words would be heard by others. She looked around guiltily before lowering her voice and angrily saying, "What nonsense are you talking about?"
If this gets out, will she still be able to live as a human being?
Cen Yu chuckled softly, "Look at your guilty look. You've done something wrong again, right?"
Cen Ji and Mei Wenyu did not stay to watch the performance at all. Even Cen Yu's sister Cen Yu followed the couple away.
With no one watching, Cen Yu had no taboos.
He hooked his arm around Bai Shuyao's neck and pulled her onto his shoulders as if no one was around.
"Why are you panicking? How could I not know what kind of person you are? After doing something bad, you should be calm. You are so impatient, no wonder you are suppressed by Jiang Cha."
It would have been fine if he didn't speak, but when he spoke, Bai Shuyao became even more panicked.
"How do you know..."
Bai Shuyao stopped talking at the right time.
No, she couldn't ask Cen Yu how he knew that she was completely devoured by Jiang Cha.
What if he was trying to trick her?
"Brother Cen Yu, what are you talking about? Why don't I understand?"
Cen Yu smiled faintly, "You're the best, you really don't understand!"
How can you be his ally when you are so incompetent?
Cen Yu withdrew his hand and turned his gaze back to the stage.
Suddenly, he saw a slender figure coming out from the backstage, hunched over, taking small steps, and walking towards the audience.
Cen Yuming's expression did not change, but his eyes were full of smiles.
This little girl is much more interesting than Bai Shuyao!
Jiang Cha waited until Liu Cuicui finished putting on her makeup before she brought Ye Surong's and Liu Cuicui's makeup bags from the backstage.
After Ye Surong finished her performance, she sat directly next to Huo Tingkun.
Jiang Cha sat next to Ye Surong. Huo Jingchuan moved Huo Jingye, who had already moved one seat to the side, to the side again and squeezed him between Jiang Cha and Huo Jingye.
Huo Jingye frowned unhappily, "If I had known, I wouldn't have saved a seat for you!"
He should have reserved a seat for Cha Cha alone.
Huo Jingye pouted his upper and lower lips so much that an oil bottle could be hung on his mouth.
Ye Surong deliberately left her makeup bag backstage, as she guessed Liu Cuicui would need it later.
Seeing Jiang Cha coming back, she took the makeup bag.
"Is the girl's face healed?"
Jiang Cha whispered, "It's cured for now. It will probably take some time to cure it completely."
She took Liu Cuicui's foundation out of her bag again and handed it to Ye Surong.
"Mom, you know about cosmetics, can you help me take a look, is there anything wrong with this?"
Ye Surong casually handed the makeup bag to Huo Tingkun, rubbed some powder on her fingertips and took a look, her face suddenly changed.
"You can't use this thing. If you use it, your face will definitely get rotten."
Bai Shuyao and Cen Yu were originally sitting in the row behind Jiang Cha.
But after that incident, Cen Yu simply moved his seat back one row.
Bai Shuyao sat next to him, separated by a row of seats in the middle, so she couldn't hear what Jiang Cha and her daughter were saying at all.
But she recognized the box of foundation in Ye Surong's hand.
That's Liu Cuicui's thing.
As expected, Jiang Cha discovered it again?
Bai Shuyao felt that uneasy feeling again.
She felt as if a knife was hanging over her head, ready to fall at any moment.
"Want that?"
Cen Yu casually blurted out the truth that Bai Shuyao feared the most.
Bai Shuyao grabbed his wrist and said, "Help me!"
She begged.
Cen Yu likes to see Bai Shuyao surrender.
It gave him a great sense of accomplishment.
He rubbed Bai Shuyao's head and said, "So good!"
It’s most touching to see such a well-behaved person crying.
The fleeting gloom in Cen Yu's eyes was deliberately ignored by Bai Shuyao.
She showed the expression that Cen Yu liked most, with the gentleness and hesitation unique to Jiangnan women, which aroused Cen Yu's morbid desire to protect her.
He enjoys the feeling of being admired and relied upon.
Jiang Cha took out everything in Liu Cuicui's bag.
The more Ye Surong examined it, the more solemn her expression became.
"No wonder her face is like this. Everything in here, including the three-white paste, has been added with a lot of lead powder. It would be strange if her face didn't get rotten!"
In ancient times, there were indeed many cosmetics that contained a particularly high content of lead powder.
However, after generations of improvements, especially since Ye Surong was a person who loved beauty very much, she would not touch lead-containing cosmetics like this one.
"I'll give the things to her later and let her deal with it herself!"
"She really has to make her own decision on this matter."
Ye Surong took out a handkerchief and wiped her hands repeatedly several times, fearing that she would get an allergic reaction.
Not only did she wipe her own hands, she also wiped Jiang Cha's hands several times.
"Look at you, your hands are red."
Jiang Cha has been taken care of by Ye Surong since he was a child, and his skin is more delicate than that of ordinary people.
Not to mention the toxic lead powder, even if the fabric of the clothes was a little rough, it would rub red marks on her body.
When she was at the Ye family, every time she invited a tailor to come to her house to take measurements and make clothes, Ye Surong would pay more attention to the fabric of Jiang Cha's clothes.
Jiang Cha just felt a little itchy on the part of her skin that had come into contact with the toxic cosmetics. This level of allergy would have been a serious matter in the past.
But after experiencing more than ten years of increasingly gloomy life in her previous life, what did these things mean to her?
"It's okay, Mom. I'll just apply some ointment when I get home."
Before Ye Surong could respond, Huo Jingchuan, who was sitting next to her, grabbed Jiang Cha's hand.
In the flickering light on the stage, it was easy to see the mottled red on Jiang Cha's fair skin.
"Why didn't you tell me you were allergic?"
His reaction caught Ye Surong's eyes, and Huo Tingkun and Huo Jingye also cast their gazes over.
Jiang Cha wanted to pull her hand back, but Huo Jingchuan seemed to have guessed her move and held her hand tightly.
Didn’t retract?
Jiang Cha's smile was stiff.
"It's okay, it will be fine in a moment!"
Huo Jingchuan noticed Jiang Cha's resistance and the surprised looks of the other people, and reluctantly let go of her hand.
"Where's the ointment? I'll get it!"
Jiang Cha originally wanted to say no, but then she thought that she would have to give the ointment to Liu Cuicui later, so she had to get it.
"In the large drawer on the left side of my desk, there's a small, button-sized round aluminum box with the words 'Comfrey Cream' written on it."
As she spoke, she took out the key to her room from her bag and said, "Brother, please go get it for me. Thank you."
When Huo Jingchuan took the key, he deliberately pinched Jiang Cha's fingers to express his dissatisfaction.
"I should have fought my brother to the end if I had been sitting next to Cha Cha. If I had gone back to get the medicine man now, it would have been me!"
He felt regretful and remorseful.
Huo Jingchuan stood out again.
"Your brother has always been more stable than you. You should really be the one doing the errands."
Huo Jingye: “…”
No, he didn't quite understand.
Is his father... scolding him?
Ye Surong originally felt that something seemed a little strange, but after being interrupted by the father and son, that subtle feeling disappeared.
Jiang Cha was eager to change the subject.
God knows how nervous she was.
"I forgot to bring comfrey ointment when I went out, so I have to trouble you to make a trip. I'm so sorry."
Huo Jingye moved his butt and took Huo Jingchuan's seat.
"Cha Cha, Big Brother is really afraid of trouble. If there is such a thing again in the future, you can help me. I am different from Big Brother. I am not afraid of trouble!"
Jiang Cha and Ye Surong were at a loss whether to laugh or cry after hearing this.
Huo Tingkun supported his forehead and said, "As a brother, it's my duty to take care of my sister. Jingchuan and Jingye, you can do whatever you want. If they dare not listen to you, just tell me. I won't beat them to death."
Ye Surong patted Huo Tingkun's arm.
"You don't learn your lesson, do you?"
Ye Surong hated to see Huo Tingkun beating children.
Huo Tingkun coughed twice and touched his nose. "That's what I said."
"That's not going to work."
"Next, we welcome our singer Liu Cuicui to sing 'The East is Red' for everyone."
