Ji Niandong was so startled that she abruptly stood up from her chair and took a few steps back. The makeup artist beside her was also at a loss, not daring to offend Liu Xinyu.
Liu Xinyu looked at Ji Niandong with a smile that didn't reach her eyes, her face slightly stiff which looked awkward, but her gaze was filled with hostility.
"I heard another beauty is here, quite different from Qiao Anlu. But your clean aura, I find it more appealing!" She said, stepping forward, whispering in Ji Niandong's ear, "How did you climb up to Ada?"
Ji Niandong instinctively took a step back and replied politely, "Hello, Miss Liu. I don't know Ada personally. I'm honored she noticed me!"
She answered sincerely, but Liu Xinyu's face changed, "Are you proud of it, did she come to you?"
"I didn't mean that!" Ji Niandong slightly frowned, she used to admire Liu Xinyu, but now felt very uncomfortable.
However, Liu Xinyu then gave a shallow smile, took a step back, and extended her hand, "In the future, we're in the same crew, let's collaborate well!"
Ji Niandong hadn't figured out whether the extended hand was friendly or hostile when she saw Ada walking over, "What are you doing? Time is tight, can't you chat later?!"
She cast a barely noticeable glance at Liu Xinyu, pulled Ji Niandong to sit back in her chair, "Get your makeup done quickly, the photographer is waiting!"
Liu Xinyu then turned back to her own makeup table.
Apart from her age, Ji Niandong was indeed suitable for this role. With a light sweet makeup and a haircut, putting on a school uniform skirt, she looked just like a lively high school student.
She was born with big watery eyes, under light makeup looked pure and harmless, playing a high school student, not pretentious at all.
Ada pushed her to the photo studio, and under the incandescent light, she suddenly felt a bit self-conscious.
"Look at the camera!" The photographer shouted while shooting, but she couldn't find her state.
Five years, five years at home, hadn't even taken selfies!
Ada couldn't stand it any longer, asked the photographer to stop, and walked over to say, "What's wrong? Can't you smile?"
Ji Niandong shook her head, her face full of apology.
Ada patted her on the shoulder, "Take it slowly! Follow my moves!"
"Take it slowly, don't rush!" Lu Beichen always comforted her , Ji Niandong exhaled and nodded towards Ada.
Ada immediately posed, and Ji Niandong followed suit.
Seeing she found her touch, the photographer no longer furrowed his brows, "Very good, Miss Ji, now think of the happiest thing, smile happily, tilt your head slightly! Good, put on the backpack and shoot another set! Jump!"
The photographer also began to patiently direct, she gradually got into the state, and when she was about to finish, Liu Xinyu walked in with her people.
Ji Niandong was taken aback, her expression started to become awkward again, Ada quickly instructed, "Ignore others, finish the shoot quickly, it's almost done!"
"Ada, this is too unreasonable, the second female lead hasn't finished shooting, and a supporting role goes first?" Liu Xinyu's manager Amy argued, while Liu Xinyu stood behind her, quietly watching her argue with a smile.
Ada glanced at her, "Next time, remember to bring Xinyu for some touch-ups, her makeup's increasingly slow, still not beautiful enough it seems!"
Mocking both her plastic surgery and slow makeup, plus, that even after surgery her makeup's so slow, only makes it sadder!
Liu Xinyu's nostrils flared in anger, Amy was momentarily speechless.
