Chapter 349: Not a soft persimmon
Miao Xiaomei didn't want to cause any more trouble for Liu Lan. Liu Lan had been good enough to her. She brought her into the entertainment industry, generously let her live with her, saved her money, and thought about her. Such a beautiful and kind-hearted girl is hard to find nowadays. At least in Miao Xiaomei's original circle of life, she couldn't come into contact with such people.
She shook her head and said, "This is my job. I signed a contract with the crew. The first clause is that I must obey the orders of my superiors. I am a newcomer, how can I be picky about my job? I want to continue to be a full-time makeup artist in the entertainment industry. Sister Man, don't worry, I will do my job well, and Fu Feiqian will not be able to find fault with me. Wait for me, I will be back after I finish my makeup."
Miao Xiaomei came to Fu Feiqian's dressing room. Fu Feiqian was sitting in the dressing chair with three assistants standing behind her. All four of them looked at her with the corners of their eyes.
Miao Xiaomei has been working in the service industry. She has served difficult customers before and is used to being humble. She forced a professional fake smile and said to Fu Feiqian, "Let me do your makeup."
Fu Feiqian said, "Aren't you Liu Man's personal makeup artist?"
"I'm the temporary makeup artist for the crew."
"Oh, then what is your relationship with Liu Lan? Seeing you two walking together, I thought you were her assistant."
"We are friends, and she introduced me to work in the crew."
Fu Feiqian laughed in her heart. Liu Lan got the role because her boyfriend asked He Lushen for it, and she overestimated her own abilities by bringing someone in. It was so ugly to see her look so ignorant and taking advantage of others. She really took herself so seriously.

...
An assistant asked Miao Xiaomei, "I heard that you are doing the makeup for several leading actors now?"
"Yes."
Fu Feiqian felt more and more that Liu Man was scheming. She first used her boyfriend's relationship to force her way into the crew, then used some unknown means to get Lin Zhi and Tian Yafu at the same time, and then sent her confidant, the makeup artist, to win the favor of several leading actors. Otherwise, why did Jiang Lin just speak to her blindly? They had only known each other for a day. It was simply a chain reaction. No wonder Liu Man could become an Internet celebrity in a short period of time. She was too smart.
Fu Feiqian was simply judging others by her own mean character. She herself was such a person, so she made such dark assumptions about Liu Lan.
She hated Miao Xiaomei in her heart. She had not forgotten how this country bumpkin girl had laughed at her just now. But when she thought about how ugly the previous makeup artist had made her look, she would rather have this "Liu Man's confidant" do her makeup. She said to Miao Xiaomei, "I heard that Jiang Lin was very satisfied with the makeup you designed for her yesterday. It seems that you have a very high level of makeup skills. I hope that the makeup you design for me will also satisfy me."
Miao Xiaomei lowered her eyebrows and said, "I will strictly follow the director and the script's requirements for your and Teacher Jiang's makeup."
The script says that Wang Zhaojun, who had just been released from the cold palace, looked haggard and had a dark complexion, so Miao Xiaomei chose the most dark and yellowish foundation; the script says that Wang Zhaojun was listless and had dull eyes, so Miao Xiaomei drew deep eye bags for Fu Feiqian, with downward eyeliner to make the corners of her eyes appear droopy, and also drew nasolabial folds; the script says that Wang Zhaojun was thin and emaciated, so Miao Xiaomei used a darker foundation to darken the sides of Fu Feiqian's jaw, so that when she appeared on camera, her cheeks would appear sunken.
In fact, after making such a fuss for so long, Fu Feiqian had already accepted the fact that she had to dress up ugly. But when Miao Xiaomei finished, she saw the ugly face in the mirror, her face suddenly changed, and she said to Miao Xiaomei in a stern voice, "Your makeup is uglier than the previous one by the makeup artist. It's so ugly. How can I be on camera like this? How do you want me to take the photo? Did you do it on purpose? Did Liu Lan ask you to make me ugly like this?"
Miao Xiaomei was stunned by Fu Feiqian's series of questions. Fu Feiqian's ugly makeup and ferocious expression made her look scarier than a ghost.
"You don't say anything because you feel guilty," Fu Feiqian had already formed a preconceived notion and had already convicted Miao Xiaomei.
Miao Xiaomei came back to her senses and said hurriedly, "This is how Wang Zhaojun is described in the script. She was ugly in the early stage, but she will gradually become beautiful in the later stage. This requires a process, just like the ugly duckling turning into a swan..."
Before Miao Xiaomei could finish her words, Fu Feiqian slapped her in the face.
