"Su Peishan, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want. What evidence do you have to prove that Deputy Director Yan took any benefits from me?"
Su Peishan sneered and said sarcastically, "A second female lead enjoys the treatment that only the female lead gets, and the entire crew treats you with utmost respect. You know best why."
Jin Zhennuan's face turned from pale to white, and she glared coldly at Bai Qianmo.
"Don't pretend to be high and mighty here. Everyone knows how she got the lead role."
"What? Are you jealous? I heard you auditioned too, but you didn't even pass the second audition, right?" Su Peishan retorted with a smile.
Jin Zhennuan couldn't win the argument with Su Peishan and felt she had been wronged. A surge of anger was pressing uncomfortably in her chest.
"So what if I auditioned for the lead role? Right now, it's not like I'm the only one who wants to cater to my every whim." Jin Zhennuan's words were quite arrogant.
Su Peishan's face immediately darkened.
"you……"
She stood up, ready to lash out, but a hand grabbed her wrist.
"There are still twenty minutes left. Your makeup is almost perfect. Help me with my hair and makeup."
Su Peishan frowned and looked down at Bai Qianmo.
Qianmo is not one to suffer a loss, so why doesn't she seem angry at all? Couldn't she tell that Jin Zhennuan's sarcasm was directed at her?
She glared at Jin Zhennuan with hatred, and even though she was furious, Su Peishan still sat down with a resentful expression.
"You're the female lead, why doesn't the production team even provide you with a stylist?" Su Peishan muttered under her breath, dissatisfied.
Bai Qianmo smiled confidently.
"Actually, I can look good on camera even without makeup. Just put some foundation on me."
Su Peishan, who was originally full of anger, suddenly laughed after hearing Bai Qianmo's words.
"That's true. I've been in this industry for so long, and to be honest, I've never seen a female celebrity with skin that's more delicate and fair than yours. You're right, even without makeup, you're a million times prettier than some people."
Hearing Su Peishan's self-praising praise of her artist, Jin Zhennuan's face turned unusually cold, and she glared at Bai Qianmo with hatred.
Although she felt contempt when she heard Su Peishan praise Bai Qianmo.
But after calming down and thinking about it carefully, she had to admit that Bai Qianmo's face was still stunning even without makeup.
Su Peishan asked Xiaomeng to take out the makeup case from the car. After doing Bai Qianmo's skincare, she took out a powder compact and applied a light makeup to Bai Qianmo. Even with just a little foundation, Bai Qianmo's face was fair and rosy, crystal clear and radiant.
After applying makeup to her eyebrows and lips, she looked even more refined and beautiful.
Her long, seaweed-like hair was casually tied into two braids that fell to her chest. She changed into a white shirt and trousers from that era. Although her outfit was obviously outdated, she managed to wear it with an artistic flair.
She stood there quietly, like a serene young woman who had stepped out of an oil painting; one glance at her was enough to make you unable to look away.
Su Peishan thought smugly that compared to Jin Zhennuan next door, who was covered in a layer of white powder, Qian Mo looked fresh and pure.
Jin Zhennuan saw this and felt both angry and resentful.
Director Kong arrived at the set ten minutes before filming was scheduled to begin.
He first went to the actors' rest area, and when he saw Bai Qianmo, the usually calm and wise man's eyes suddenly lit up.
The girl wore navy blue trousers and a white round-neck shirt. The clothes were a bit worn, but they gave her an ethereal quality.
Wearing a black down jacket she brought herself, and with two braids, she stood out in the crowd.
Gu Hongxun and Lin Cheng had also finished getting ready. The male artists' rest area was some distance away from the female artists, so they were unaware of what had just happened there.
"I didn't expect Qianmo to look so good in this outfit," Lin Cheng praised sincerely.
Meanwhile, Jin Zhennuan spent more than half an hour doing Annie's styling, but it didn't give her a refreshing feeling.
Director Kong Shen smiled and nodded: "We'll be shooting some promotional photos for you tomorrow, so let's use this outfit as the cover."
After saying that, Kong Shen looked at Annie and said, "Annie, you did a great job with this outfit."
Anne looked a little awkward, but she didn't tell anyone what had just happened.
Su Peishan naturally wouldn't let Annie take advantage of her, and said, "Director Kong, thank you for your opinion. This outfit was done by me for Qianmo. Actually, it didn't take much effort. Qianmo has a good foundation, so I just put on some light makeup and braided two pigtails."
"You did this? Why did you have the agent do the artist's styling? Annie, what were you doing just now?"
Annie looked at Assistant Director Yan with a troubled expression: "I was just doing Jin Zhennuan's styling, and Assistant Director Yan said it was Producer Liu's order."
Kong Shen's face immediately turned cold and sullen, and he gave Deputy Director Yan a sharp look.
"Producer Liu told you? What did he tell you?"
Deputy Director Yan lowered his head, not daring to look Director Kong in the eye.
"Producer Liu... he said..." After stammering for a long time, Assistant Director Yan couldn't utter a single complete sentence.
Bai Qianmo sneered inwardly. Producer Liu probably didn't say anything at all; it was just her using Producer Liu as a pretext to convey her message.
Originally, Assistant Director Yan probably wanted her to miss the time for styling, so that when Kong Shen arrived, they might use this opportunity to exaggerate things in front of Kong Shen.
Kong Shen is a very punctual person. There are set times for makeup and styling every day during the shooting schedule. If it affects the shooting process, Kong Shen is likely to get angry on the spot.
So, Assistant Director Yan and Jin Zhennuan wanted Kong Shen to leave a bad impression on her on the first day of filming, so they pulled this stunt.
They never expected that simply putting on light makeup and braiding two pigtails would earn them the approval of Director Kong Shen.
"Can't say it? Yan Jiaojiao, you've been by my side for several years now, don't you even understand the difference between what's important and what's not?"
"Director Kong, it's all a misunderstanding. Qianmo thinks she has a good natural look and can do well even with minimal makeup. It just so happens that Qianmo and Jin Zhennuan are filming the same scene today, and everyone is in a rush, so..."
Despite the freezing weather, Assistant Director Yan broke out in a cold sweat.
Kong Shen snorted coldly: "No matter how famous the actors are in a scene, as the assistant director, you are in charge of managing the schedules of all the actors involved in the filming. You have to make sure that the arrangements for the artists are in place. If you can't do it well, then I'll have to ask you to find another job."
Yan Jiaojiao quickly admitted her mistake.
"The person you should apologize to is not me." Panic arose after Yan Jiaojiao sincerely apologized, and the main topic was put aside.
