Ning Xi said that the makeup that An Yi did for the heroine of "The Beautiful Girl" was very similar to the style of her former roommate Sun Min, and Yunli took it to heart.
After she took Ning Xi to the dormitory and settled her down, she left.
After taking a taxi back home, Yunli took a shower first to wash away the coldness and fatigue in his body.
After taking a shower, she blew her hair dry, then took out her cell phone and called Rong Xin.
The call didn't go through.
Yunli thought Rong Xin was probably busy, so she didn't call her but sent her a message instead.
The general content of the message was that she had something to ask her and asked her to call her back when she was free.
After sending the message, Yunli went to do other things.
Rong Xin called half an hour later.
At that time, Yunli was thinking about what to eat for dinner.
After seeing Rong Xin's call, she gave up worrying about what to eat and picked up the phone.
"Miss Yun, I'm sorry, I was busy just now."
As soon as the call was connected, Yunli heard Rong Xin's apologetic words coming from the other end of the line: "Principal Rong, you are too polite. Business is more important."
After exchanging a few simple pleasantries, Rong Xin asked, "Miss Yun, I wonder what you're calling me about?"
Yunli: "I have something I want to ask Principal Rong. Do you remember An Yi's boyfriend when she was studying at Shangmei?"
"An Yi's boyfriend when she was studying at Shangmei?" Rong Xin was stunned for a moment, then said, "Are you asking about Lv Minghai?"
"Yes." Yunli confirmed the name she mentioned, "It's him. I wonder if you still remember him, Principal Rong?"
"Yes, I do." Rong Xin felt a little strange. "But how do you know about Lv Minghai?"
Yunli replied: "When Ning Xi and I came back, we took a ride, and the driver was him."
Rong Xin was surprised when she heard this: "Lv Minghai is actually giving rides now?"
After receiving Yunli's affirmative answer, she had a complicated and regretful expression: "What a pity.
Back then, he and An Yi were the best students at Shangmei.
In fact, his talent is better than An Yi's.
He was my grandmother's favorite student back then, but I never expected he would become a ride-sharing driver now."
After expressing her regret, Rong Xin asked, "Why did Miss Yun think of asking me about Lv Minghai?"
Yunli said, "That's it.
Ning Xi and I were talking about An Yi in the car, and he overheard us.
When he heard An Yi's name, he became very excited and said that An Yi had plagiarized his makeup design.
He said that the makeup that An Yi did for the male and female protagonists in "Beauty of Youth" and other important characters was designed by him.
After hearing Yunli's words, Rong Xin was stunned, then sighed: "He did say this back then.
It’s just that my grandmother was in poor health during that time and was always in the hospital.
So I am not very clear about the specific situation of this matter.
But I remember that he gradually stopped talking about this matter.
After that, I had no news from him.”
Yunli didn't expect Rong Xin to be unclear about Lu Minghai's accusation that An Yi had plagiarized.
Frowning slightly, she asked, "Back then, your grandmother was so optimistic about Lu Minghai. Didn't she tell him what she thought about An Yi's plagiarism?"
Rong Xin: "My grandma was in poor health during that time, so I didn't dare let her know about this.
By the time she was discharged from the hospital, Lv Minghai's case had almost calmed down."
At this point, Rong Xin suddenly remembered something: "That's right.
Later, when my grandmother watched "Beauty of Youth", she did say that the makeup and appearance of some of the characters in the play were in the style of Lu Minghai.
When she learned that the makeup artist was An Yi, she was a little surprised.
But later she felt that because they had been together for a long time, An Yi's makeup style was influenced by Lv Minghai.
Yunli frowned again when he heard this.
When two people spend a long time together, their habits of doing things and some other aspects will indeed become similar to their partner.
Yunli was not sure whether Grandma Rong Xin really thought that An Yi's makeup and styling for "Beauty of Youth" was because she had been with Lu Minghai for a long time, so her makeup and styling style became similar to Lu Minghai's.
Or maybe she noticed something was wrong, but chose not to get involved.
Or maybe there are some other reasons.
Now Grandma Rong Xin passed away several years ago.
She found that the makeup style that An Yi did for "Beauty of Youth" was similar to Lu Minghai's style, but she didn't care what the reason was.
No one in this world will know anymore.
Yunli contacted Rong Xin originally because he wanted to see if he could get some information from her that could help Lu Minghai restore his reputation.
But now it seems that her plan has failed.
"Ms. Yun." Rong Xin was a little curious, "You seem to be very interested in Lv Minghai."
Yunli: "Oh, I recruited him into Xingyi, so I wanted to find out about his situation."
"You recruited him into Xingyi?" Rong Xin was surprised.
Yunli hummed, "His strength is quite good. I'm very optimistic about him."
Rong Xin: "His abilities are indeed quite good, but his reputation in the fashion circle isn't very good. Have you considered carefully about Xingyi hiring him?"
Yunli laughed and said, "His bad reputation is because of An Yi.
But what if An Yi knew that Xing Yi recruited him?
Does she dare to go against Xingyi openly?
At most, she would do some small things behind the scenes to intercept the fashion resources of the young artists under my company.
But whether an artist is popular or not is not determined by fashion resources.
Having fashion resources is the icing on the cake.
No, then no.
Besides, when an artist reaches a certain status, those fashion resources will come to him/her on his/her own.
Even if An Yi wanted to stop it, could she? "
Listening to Yunli's proud and conceited words, Rong Xin did not feel uncomfortable at all.
Because Yunli was telling the truth.
With the Yun family, Meng family and Tang family behind her, how could An Yi dare to provoke her?
What's more, Xingyi is not someone who is easy to bully now.
With Jiang Zhi and Shen Yi as two cash cows, Xingyi has established a firm foothold in the entertainment industry.
"I overthought it." Rong Xin smiled, "Then congratulations to you for adding another powerful general to Xingyi."
Yunli accepted her congratulations: “That’s right.
The reason I came to see you today is not only to ask you about what Lu Minghai accused An Yi of plagiarism.
I also want to ask you about Sun Min's whereabouts."
"Sun Min?" Rong Xin was stunned when Yunli suddenly mentioned Sun Min. "Why are you asking about her whereabouts?"
Yunli: “Just this morning.
Ning Xi saw a leaked photo of the heroine of "The Legend of Beauty".
She told me that in the leaked photo, the female lead’s makeup looked very much like Sun Min’s style.”
Rong Xin understood the underlying meaning behind Yun Li's words: "Are you suspecting that An Yi's makeup for the female lead in 'Special Beauty' was copied from Sun Min's?"
Yunli did not deny it.
