T/N: 秋分: Quifen or Autumn Equinox-16th of the 24th solar terms (between September 23-October 7)
Before 8 o’clock, the people on the road could clearly feel the cold breeze through their trousers.
Before they entered the dressing room, Jiang Tiao took out a thermos from her canvas bag. Just outside the door, she poured the boiling water in a kettle into her bottle.
The steam lingered in the air. She screwed the cap back on and walked inside.
Inside, she saw that her master had already arrived and is busy applying the makeup on Fu Ting Chuan. There are also three other stars sitting inside: Tong Jing Nian who’s playing Young Taiping, Tang You Yan who’s playing Li Zhi, and Bai Rui who plays the Lady of Wei.
As soon as she entered the door, everyone turned to look at her.
Out of habit, Jiang Tiao quickly examined the makeup of the three people. Taiping and Lady of Wei had already had their base makeup done. Li Zhi had already had his entire makeup done and is only waiting for his hair.
Master’s efficiency is really high, Jiang Tiao sincerely lamented in her heart.
He is also very responsible, even coming in earlier than the young juniors.
Fu Ting Chuan didn’t look up at her. He couldn’t move too much otherwise he will mess up the makeup artist’s work.
And today her master, Yuan Yang still radiated sex appeal. He wore an aqua blue shirt, paired with skinny jeans. His fringes are fixed on top of his head with hairspray for fear that others don’t know that his sexual orientation is different from that of ordinary people.
“Older Sister Jiang!” Tong Jing Nian happily chirped, “There are a lot of people today. Can you do my makeup instead?”
She always loves to act coquettish with her. Her voice is crisp and sweet.
Jiang Tiao hung up her bag and turned to her, “Sure.”
“Go, go, go. Little girl, move to the side.” Her master dispelled Tong Jing Nian away, “The first scene is of Li Zhi and Lady Helan. You wait, Xiao Bai’s makeup needs to be done first.”
“Tch.” Tong Jing Nian coldly stared at him and rolled back onto the sofa.
Jiang Tiao was unable to restrain her smile.
Master is a well-known makeup artist in the circle. His aesthetics are excellent and can decide on the appropriate makeup for a client in seconds. His pair of skilled hands can be compared to plastic surgery.
He had good relationships with many stars and never fawn over them. If he doesn’t get along with a big star, he would curse at them as usual.
Unlike those little hands under him who always have to be cautious with what they do.
He still kept the same attitude with such popular movie stars like Tong Jing Nian and Fu Ting Chuan.
There is a saying that goes unless you don’t want your face, never offend a makeup artist as your face is in their hands…..
When she heard what Yuan Yang said, Bai Rui stood up and sat down at the empty dressing table next to Fu Ting Chuan.
Yuan Yang lifted his chin and ordered Jiang Tiao, “Xiao Jiang, do Miss Bai’s makeup.”
The Miss Bai her master is talking about is, of course, Bai Rui. She had been active in the entertainment industry for five years. She has phoenix eyes and a seductive appearance as if she was born with it. Because of this, she mostly played the role of the beautiful and evil characters such as the source of calamity of the country or the scheming concubine and so on. For example, in “Investiture of the Gods,” the costume fantasy drama that aired last year, she played the fox spirit Daji.”
She originally wanted to audition for the role of the “Adult Taiping” but due to the lack of an elegant appearance, she was rejected by the producers. However, they were unwilling to give up on Bai Rui this popular and outstanding actress so they simply gave her the role of Gao Zong’s lover.
Jiang Tiao helped to fix her bangs and warmly asked, “Miss Bai, what kind of makeup do you prefer.”
Bai Rui glanced at her through the mirror, “Isn’t this your job as a makeup artist to decide?”
Her voice was filled with arrogance and contempt.
“En, it is definitely our job but we also need to hear your opinions as well. If you are not satisfied with it, it will delay the filming process.” Jiang Tiao patiently explained to her.
Bai Rui stroked her face with her finger, “My face, no matter how you do my makeup, will not look young and pure. Do whatever you want just make sure the end result is worthy as the identity of the emperor’s mistress.”
When Tong Jing Nian heard this, she snorted and muttered under her breath, “Tch, coffee can also be so arrogant.”
“Li Zhi” who was sitting next to her drinking tea almost splurted it out. The middle-aged man secretly shook his head. This little thing is really like a newborn calf unafraid of tigers. She even dared to ridicule her senior.
That is because Starbucks recently introduced a new drink called Flat White*. Later for a while, regardless if they are anti-fans or real fans, they would use this to mock Bai Rui’s names. It didn’t take long for many people in the industry to hear about it.
T/N: Flat White= 馥芮白(fù ruì bái) which has the same exact characters in her name Bai Rui (白芮)
Jiang Tiao no longer said anymore.
She thought for a moment and decided to respect Bai Rui’s previous rich style. She lightly touched up her foundation to secure it.
Lady Helan and Wu Zetian's characteristics are completely different. When Li Zhi was the emperor, Meiniang (referred to We Zetian) appeared gentle, considerate, tough, and dignified on the outside, but in fact, she is calculating, vicious and merciless.
As for Lady of Wei, her mind is far inferior to Wu Zetian. She is beautiful but simple and straightforward, arrogant and despotic.
Then it is better to make her more flamboyant and eye-catching than Wu Meiniang.
