Shen Jue was silent for a long time. The atmosphere in the office was very cold. Secretary Lin thought he had said something wrong and his heart was about to jump out of his chest.
"Mr. Shen?"
"You mean, I asked you to buy lipstick last night?"
Secretary Lin: "Yes, Mr. Shen, don't you remember?"
Shen Jue: "Did I say who I bought it for?"
Secretary Lin was a little confused. "You didn't say."
Shen Jue: "I understand. Send her to the villa in the Jade Courtyard."
"Okay, Mr. Shen, I'll send it over today." Secretary Lin nodded as if relieved.
Shen Jue frowned and said coldly, "Alright, get out now."
There was some traffic jam along the way, and Yu Rou bought a change of clothes on the way, so she arrived relatively late. Everyone else had arrived, and she was the last actor to arrive at the crew. Xiao Chen was getting anxious waiting at the door. They had to shoot a major scene today, and if the director got angry later, Yu Rou would be accused of being unprofessional. I'm afraid her opportunities to work with such a big director will become fewer in the future.
The original owner had already offended many directors before. If she offended a few more, no one would dare to use her.
When Xiao Chen saw Yu Rou, he ran over quickly.
"Auntie, you're finally here. The makeup artists are waiting. Come in quickly."
Yu Rou didn't waste any time and followed Xiao Chen to the dressing room.
There were other people in the dressing room. The heroine Xiao Qiao had just finished her makeup and was about to go out. Meng Xiaoyu had just arrived and when she came out after changing her clothes, she met Yu Rou face to face.
Yu Rouhe greeted the two of them lightly and found a place to sit down.
Xiao Qiao nodded at her and left, and it was her turn to perform.
Meng Xiaoyu was originally sitting opposite Yu Rou to her left, but now she moved to sit next to her. She and Yu Rou had worked together on a commercial and a variety show before, but each time they collaborated, they had some unpleasantness.
Meng Xiaoyu has a financial backer, which is something everyone in the circle knows but does not say out loud. However, she herself is a professional actor, has good acting skills, has good resources and many works, so her popularity has risen rapidly in recent years. Although she is not as popular as Yu Rou, the evaluation of Meng Xiaoyu in the circle is much better than that of Yu Rou.
Because they are of similar age and debuted at the same time, the two are often compared and have even competed with each other secretly several times.
Meng Xiaoyu watched Yu Rou acting yesterday and was quite surprised to see how well she acted, especially after Yu Rou left and she had to do several NGs in a row. Director Zhang then said something about Yu Rou, which made her very angry. When she saw Yu Rou today, the anger came out.
"I heard that you went to dinner with Director Li and the others yesterday?"
Meng Xiaoyu also wanted to go yesterday, but something urgent happened last night and she didn't go. Later, when she heard that Yu Rou had gone, she felt even more awkward.
Yu Rou knew that the original owner and Meng Xiaoyu had a bad relationship, so she didn't bother to talk to her any more. She just said "hmm" and stood up. She said to the makeup artist, "Should I change my clothes first?"
The makeup artist nodded, "Yes, go change your clothes first and then put on your makeup. You'll need to do your hair later."
Yesterday, Yu Rou was filming in men's clothing, but today she has to change into women's clothing. Today she has a scene with the movie emperor Chu Zheng. The director said yesterday that this scene is very important, so every step cannot be wrong. First of all, the makeup and hair are very particular.
"Then I'll go change my clothes first."
Yu Rou stood up after she finished speaking. Meng Xiaoyu felt strange when she saw that Yu Rou was not sarcastic or showing off.
If it were in the past, Yu Rou would have told it on her own initiative. But when she asked about it today, Yu Rou didn't react. There must be something wrong. Maybe something happened yesterday that she didn't want to mention.
Could it be that Yu Rou made a fool of herself at the dinner party last night?
The more Meng Xiaoyu thought about it, the more he felt that this was possible. He picked up his phone and sent a message to his assistant, asking him to check who was there last night and whether anything had happened.
After Yu Rou changed into a red dress and put on her makeup and hair, she was breathtakingly beautiful.
If she looked cold and evil yesterday in men's clothing, now she was wearing a dark red dress, like a bewitching flower, captivating everyone.
When Meng Xiaoyu saw her, her eyes widened. Then she looked at her own plain skirt and suddenly felt that she was completely outdone. She had always been said to be prettier than Yu Rou, but now their outfits were so different. Yu Rou was wearing luxurious and beautiful clothes, while she was wearing a plain and elegant cloth skirt. When the movie was released, they would definitely be compared again.
Meng Xiaoyu was angry and annoyed, but there was nothing she could do. She played the role of the male protagonist's childhood sweetheart cousin, whose family had fallen on hard times. She was the daughter of a minor official, so she could only dress like this to fit in with her character. There was nothing she could say about the clothes, so she could only strive for perfection in her makeup. So she complained that the makeup artist made her look too old, changed the shape of her eyebrows several times, and asked the makeup artist to use a whiter base makeup for her. All this took more than half an hour.
After Yu Rou left, the director was still filming Chu Zheng's scenes. The sun today was not as scorching as yesterday, but the weather was still hot. The staff there were sweating profusely. Yu Rou asked Xiao Chen to move a chair and sit where the fan could blow to read the script.
The script of "The Physiognomist" was adapted from the work "The Prime Minister" by the famous novelist San Yuan. Yu Rou only read a dozen pages and felt that the script was very well written. Her role was also very malleable, which aroused her interest. Yesterday, time was tight and she only watched the scene she was supposed to perform yesterday. Now, as she watched it slowly from the beginning, she found the plot more and more attractive.
Yu Rou plays the ninth prince, Ling Qingchen, the daughter of the favored concubine Li Fei. Li Fei was originally a concubine of the previous emperor. When she was young, she had a relationship with the current emperor. Later, due to some strange circumstances, she entered the palace, and the current emperor rebelled and seized the throne for her.
