Wei Lai then withdrew his scrutinizing gaze from Su Ling and turned around to go back to the house.
Su Ling behind him seemed to be talking to himself: "But I really envy you. Boss Yan treats you so well!"
Wei Lai turned around and paused, a smile on his face: "Well, I am also honored to meet him."
"Hey! Wei Lai, I forgot to tell you that the crew will start filming in ten days. You should prepare for it these few days!" When Wei Lai was almost gone, Su Ling just remembered the important matter and shouted at Wei Lai's back.
Time flies like an arrow, and in a blink of an eye, it is time to join the crew.
During this period, Wei Lai had not seen Yan Congliang since the last time he celebrated his successful audition.
Today is his first day on the crew. Will he... come to see him off?
Wei Lai felt a little nervous.
"Wei Lai, who are you waiting for? We are almost done, it's time to go!" Su Ling urged Wei Lai in the nanny car.
Wei Lai looked at the driver and said, "Brother Su, can you wait a little longer? Just a little while, ten minutes, okay? Just ten minutes. If he doesn't show up in ten minutes, we'll leave."
Seeing Wei Lai's pitiful appearance, Su Ling's heart softened: "Oh, okay. You kid, I don't know who you are waiting for. I found you looking around here all morning waiting for someone. Have you told them?"
Wei Lai did not answer, but looked out the window with anticipation. Seeing Wei Lai like this, Wei Lai shook his head helplessly and let him wait.
As time passed, the light in Wei Lai's eyes gradually dimmed.
Looking at Wei Lai like this, Su Ling didn't want to urge him anymore, but time was almost too late, so he could only say helplessly: "Wei Lai...it's been twenty minutes, and he hasn't come yet, look..."
Wei Lai put away the disappointment in his eyes and put on a smile: "I'm fine, Brother Su, let's go. I'm sorry for taking so long."
Su Ling shook his head: "It's nothing, but you, are you okay?"
"I'm fine, let's go." Just like that, Wei Lai and his group arrived at the crew.
When we arrived at the set, Director Qian greeted us with a big smile: "Xiao Wei, here you are. How's your practice been going?"
Wei Lai said modestly: "I have been studying hard during this period. I hope Director Qian can be more gentle when scolding me during filming."
Director Qian laughed so hard that his eyes disappeared: "Alright, alright, I will definitely teach you a genius like you well."
"By the way, let's go put on makeup now, we are going to take the final photos." Director Qian urged them.
Actually, Wei Lai arrived a little late, but after all, Wei Lai was the person Director Qian favored the most. If Director Qian didn't say anything, it was even less likely that anyone else would say anything.
Su Ling quickly took Wei Lai into the dressing room.
At this time, a young assistant came over and extended his hand to lead them in another direction: "Mr. Su and Mr. Wei, please come this way. Mr. Yan has prepared a special dressing room and lounge for you. I will show you the way."
Su Ling looked at Wei Lai with envy on his face: "Wei Lai, seriously, I'm almost dying of jealousy now, do you believe it?"
Wei Lai was also stunned by Yan Congliang's move, but after he came to his senses, he only felt warm in his heart.
When I arrived at Wei Lai's exclusive dressing room, someone was already waiting there.
When Su Ling saw the man's face clearly, he was shocked and shouted in surprise: "Gao Yixin?"
Wei Lai looked at Su Ling strangely: "What's wrong?"
"He, he, he..." Su Ling pointed at Gao Yixin, his fingers trembling with excitement. "He, he, he's a master in the makeup world! So many international actresses have wanted to pay him a huge sum of money to do their makeup, but he always refused. I never thought he would come here to do your makeup!"
Hearing Su Ling's voice, Gao Yixin also turned around and looked at the two of them with a smile: "Hello, I'm Gao Yixin. I was assigned by Mr. Yan to be responsible for Teacher Wei's makeup for this play."
Su Ling excitedly pinched Wei Lai's arm and shouted, "I must be dreaming, Wei Lai, hurry up, hurry up, pinch me!"
Wei Lai looked at Su Ling speechlessly, and smiled apologetically at Gao Yixin: "I'm sorry, teacher. My agent is not usually like this. Maybe he was too excited to see you. Please forgive me!"
Gao Yixin smiled nonchalantly: "It's okay, just sit down and I'll help you put on your makeup for today."
Wei Lai sat down obediently, leaving Su Ling alone there looking at Gao Yixin with starry eyes.
Gao Yixin held Wei Lai's face, examining her carefully and exclaiming in admiration from time to time: "Oh, your skin is so good! It can easily outshine many celebrities in the industry!...Oh, your facial features are truly God's most outstanding masterpiece! It's such an honor for me to be able to apply makeup on such a stunning face!...Oh, I finally understand why Mr. Yan went to such great lengths to invite me out of retirement. With such a captivating face, I'm the only one who can barely serve him."
Originally, Wei Lai was just responding in a casual manner, but she didn't expect Gao Yixin to suddenly mention Yan Congliang.
His face gradually turned rosy, and his eyes were no longer as sad as when he first arrived, but were filled with a joyful tenderness.
Gao Yixin saw this and smiled knowingly: "Okay, go change into your costume and see the effect later!"
As he said that, Gao Yixin pushed Wei Lai into the fitting room.
The costumes were very complicated, and this was Wei Lai's first time dealing with such things. When he was learning to sing opera before, others helped him put them on. This time, he was alone, and he could only patiently and carefully study them.
About a quarter of an hour later, Wei Lai let out a long sigh. He wiped the sweat from his forehead and finally finished it.
He slowly pushed open the door of the fitting room and walked out slowly.
"Pa pa pa!" A familiar sound of applause was heard, and Wei Lai looked over in surprise: "Mr. Yan?!"
Wei Lai's originally ordinary eyes suddenly emitted a warm light as he stared straight at Yan Congliang.
Yan Congliang smiled faintly: "Not bad, it suits you very well. It's worth it for me to have someone tailor it for you."
Wei Lai looked at Yan Congliang with red eyes and choked up, "Mr. Yan..."
Yan Congliang waved his hand: "Don't thank me, this is what I should do. I said, I will make you a movie star. Just act well and don't let all the preparations go to waste!"
Listening to Yan Congliang's joke, Wei Lai lowered his head: "Well, I will try my best!"
Yan Congliang smiled and touched his head, his face full of tenderness, "Well, I believe you."
