"How can this be possible? It's written on the notice that your makeup time is six o'clock. If you are late and can't hand in your makeup normally, it will be you who will be scolded, not you."
"But now, every time you finish my makeup, you go to Brother Liu's place to do it, and I'm just waiting here, which is a waste of time. It's better to free up this time and postpone my makeup time. This way, you can focus on only one person at a time. What do you think?"
"I think you're just looking for trouble." Zhao Xin was already somewhat dissatisfied because she had to be responsible for the makeup of two people. Others started putting on makeup at six o'clock, and that was for the heroine, while she did makeup for the supporting roles.
"Why do you have so many questions? The schedule is clearly arranged on the notice sheet. You come to put on makeup at 6 o'clock and hand it in at 9 o'clock, and Liu Xu puts on makeup at 7 o'clock and hands it in at 8 o'clock. Don't I have to catch up with him in the middle? If you have any questions, talk to the assistant director. These times are set by him. What's wrong with you and me? Can I change the time for you? Is the crew your home? Everything has to be done according to your ideas. If you are so talented, why don't you play the male lead?"
As soon as she finished speaking, Liu Xu happened to come to the dressing room. Seeing that Zhao Xin looked unhappy, he asked her, "What's wrong, Sister Xin?"
Zhao Xin sneered, "You came at the right time. Ji Qingzhou thinks I wasted his time doing your makeup. Or you can talk to the assistant director and ask him to find you a new makeup artist."
"That's not what I meant." Ji Qingzhou explained, "I just think the time arrangement is not reasonable. It can be divided into two time periods, why mix them together?"
"It's fine if it's messed up," Liu Xu said indifferently, "It's arranged in this way according to the notice, it's just a matter of waiting for an hour, right? You just need to wait."
Qian was dissatisfied and thought to himself, why didn't you wait? You came later than us and handed in your makeup earlier than us. Why didn't you wait a little longer?
Zhao Xin glanced at Ji Qingzhou and said, "Did you hear that? Liu Xu has no objection. You are the only one who has too many things to do. If you have any objection, go find the assistant director. Don't talk to me. I also work for others. After you finish the performance, you can just leave. We may have to continue to cooperate."
Ji Qingzhou was somewhat helpless. "Sister Xin, the reason why I am saying these things to you is because you are my makeup artist. I need to discuss this with you first. Only if you agree can I go to the assistant director to coordinate. Otherwise, if I directly bypass you and coordinate with the assistant director, wouldn't that be very disrespectful to you?"
"Then don't bother looking for the assistant director. Less trouble is worse than more. This is good enough. I think there's no problem with it. What do you think?"
Ji Qingzhou felt that there was something wrong, but what else could he do? He could only, "Okay then."
Zhao Xin was satisfied and turned around to put makeup on Liu Xu. Liu Xu glanced at Ji Qingzhou in the mirror and coaxed her sweetly, "Sister Xin, don't be angry. You are dressed so beautifully today. If you keep being angry, you will ruin such a good makeup."
Zhao Xin laughed, "You are the only one who can talk."
"I don't care," Liu Xu said without hesitation, "If Ji really cares, you can put makeup on him first. I'll just wait for him."
"That won't work. Your makeup is due at 8 o'clock. If you haven't done it by 8 o'clock, then it's my fault."
"I feel sorry for you, sister," Liu Xu looked at him through the mirror, "You work so hard, you have to start doing our makeup at six o'clock, and then you have to stay at the shooting site to touch up our makeup. It's so hard."
Zhao Xin sighed, "If only everyone was as sensible as you."
Ji Qingzhou listened to their singing in unison and sat down in silence, feeling extremely bored.
He promised Zhao Xin that he would not ask the assistant director for this matter, and he really would not ask the assistant director for this matter. However, Zhao Xin did not like him because he kept his word. Instead, she felt that he was indeed a newcomer and was easier to control.
Zhao Xin has been in this circle for several years. Although her makeup skills have not improved, her ability to match red and white has improved a lot. She wanted to make up the male protagonist Chen Jiyuan, but it happened that it was Ji Qingzhou and Liu Xu who got her turn. Liu Xu coaxed her and flattered her, so she was willing to make up Liu Xu well. Ji Qingzhou was not a sweet-talker, and coupled with the previous conflict due to time, Zhao Xin unconsciously began to slack off when she was making up for him.
Makeup is something that can be done perfunctorily or attentively. In the past, Zhao Xin would not answer or make phone calls when she was doing Ji Qingzhou's makeup, but now she does. She would answer or make phone calls after Liu Xu left, and the calls were not long, just 0 minutes. Then, seeing that the time for handing in makeup was approaching, she hurriedly put a few strokes on Ji Qingzhou. Ji Qingzhou's foundation was there, and he looked handsome even without makeup, so she put on a little makeup, which was enough to deal with the director.
But Qian was very dissatisfied. When Zhao Xin answered the phone again and was about to put on makeup for Ji Qingzhou while talking on the phone, Qian couldn't help but said, "Sister Xin, what do you mean? Why didn't you call when you were putting on makeup for Brother Liu, but you started calling when you were putting on makeup for our Brother Ji?"
