244 Chapter 244. A Human Spirit
Early the following day, Ding Shan was awakened by a loud noise outside the door.
After opening her eyes and thinking for a while, Ding Shan finally remembered that she was in a video recording base.
Today was the day of the official team training.
Ding Shan hurriedly got out of bed and tidied herself up. Xiao Zhao had already prepared breakfast. ZhenZhen had also rushed over and was waiting to put on Ding Shan’s makeup.
Ding Shan walked out of the bedroom after cleaning up. She smiled apologetically. “I think I woke up late.” When she saw that the director had also arrived, she smiled and nodded in greeting.
The follow-up director stood at the side with a smile and raised his camera. He looked at Ding Shan, who was showing her bare face and adjusted the angle.
Zhenzhen shook her head. “No, sister Shan. I’m early. It’s the first day of training so the makeup won’t be as exaggerated as the stage makeup, but it’ll have to be more meticulous. I came early to prepare.”
Ding Shan nodded. Daily makeup tested the artiste’s condition more. They couldn’t use heavy foundation to cover it up, and they couldn’t rely on exaggerated makeup to bluff. It tested the artiste’s foundation and the makeup artist’s skills.
Xiao Zhao handed her a cup of americano. “Here, sister Shan, to pep you up.”
Ding Shan took the coffee and picked up a vegetarian sandwich. Artistes needed to maintain their body shape for a long time, especially Ding Shan, who was very strict with herself. Breakfast was usually settled like this.
Xiao Zhao then pushed some clothes for Ding Shan to choose from. Since she didn’t need to go on stage, she naturally couldn’t wear a formal dress. She also didn’t need to wear the sponsored ones. So, Xiao Zhao tidied up the private clothes that Ding Shan had brought for her to decide which one she liked to wear according to her mood today.
Ding Shan was chewing on a sandwich lazily, looking back and forth. She chose a more casual shirt and jeans, which were retro and fashionable. The tight jeans outlined Ding Shan’s beautiful slender legs even more. Even if she didn’t show her legs, it showed her excellent figure.
Zhenzhen was watching from the side. She had already thought of Ding Shan’s style and was preparing without stopping.
Ding Shan didn’t have a big appetite. She ate a simple meal and sat in front of the dressing table, allowing Zhenzhen to take all kinds of tools and apply the makeup on her face.
It was still extremely noisy outside the door.
Ding Shan lowered her eyes and asked curiously, “What’s going on outside?”
Xiao Zhao turned to look at the director, who made a gesture and turned off the camera for the time being.
It’s all because of Chen Tong, ” Xiao Zhao replied. She went crazy early in the morning. It seemed like she couldn’t find something and was scolding someone.
Ding Shan was speechless. This was a cunning person. She couldn’t be quiet for even a moment.
Zhenzhen couldn’t help but gossip. “I heard about it when I came. It seems that she didn’t bring many clothes. She lost her temper, and everyone is busy coaxing her.”
Xiao Zhao snorted coldly. “If you can’t make it, why blame your style? Sister Shan is pleased every time she picks her clothes and changes her style, and she’s still as beautiful as ever. Isn���t she just an ugly person who makes a lot of strange things?”
Zhenzhen snickered. “Sister Zhao, you seem to hate her. You have this attitude every time she’s mentioned.”
Xiao Zhao sneaked a glance at Ding Shan. Seeing that Ding Shan was not unhappy, she muttered, “I was talking. I wouldn’t say I like her pretentious behavior. She always treats our sister Shan as an imaginary enemy. Sister Shan doesn’t want to fight with her at all. It’s her fault for finding trouble and always acting like a Big Shot. What’s so great about that?”
Zhenzhen nodded in agreement. “She is indeed too much at times, but I heard that the power behind her is quite strong, so everyone is obedient to her and dares not offend her. Actually, in the industry, people like sister Shan are the minority. People like Chen Tong are the normal ones.”
Ding Shan was silent, but she found it funny in her heart. Zhenzhen didn’t know, but she naturally understood. It wasn’t the first time Chen Tong had relied on her boss and financial backer’s power to intimidate others. The identity of the media company’s boss was still very influential in the industry. Chen Tong was stupid but intelligent and knew when to do as she pleased and when to be humble and act small. It wasn’t easy for her to be favored by her financial backer these years and sit firmly in the company’s top sister position.
Chen Tong was the one who requested this show to stabilize her popularity. Now that she had ruined it, she was furious and had nowhere to vent her anger. She wouldn’t calm down in a short time.
She could only hope that she would be able to accept reality soon, that the two of them would mind their own business and maintain some superficial feelings. Otherwise, Ding Shan would be annoyed to death if she continued to be tormented like this.
