CHAPTER 571: CHAPTER 561: QUESTIONING

Speaking of appearing on a show, the thing celebrities fear most isn’t forgetting their lines, but rather their makeup artist going overboard and making them look garish. That’s why many celebrities have their own professional makeup artists.

Of course, most celebrities still let the show’s makeup artists do their makeup to avoid offending anyone.

However, within the same crew or the same show, fights over makeup artists are not uncommon. Many celebrities even use their status to threaten makeup artists in order to suppress rising young actors.

Nelly·Qiao is no stranger to these tactics. When she’s in a good mood, she might help out, but most of the time she does as she pleases, doing makeup for whoever looks the most pleasing to her.

If she sees someone she knows, Nelly·Qiao doesn’t even think twice and goes straight to their makeup room.

Take today, for instance. Nelly·Qiao and Xu Renfei are friends, and Xu Renfei has always had his makeup done by Nelly·Qiao for his concerts. So when she heard Xu Renfei was around, she went straight to find him.

Nelly·Qiao raised an eyebrow at Xu Renfei, "Someone is trying to snatch me away~"

Xu Renfei chuckled, "Are you going?"

Nelly·Qiao knew Xu Renfei and An Yi had always been rivals, so she leaned against the makeup table and looked at the person at the door, "Didn’t I already send someone?"

The visitor looked a bit troubled, "The person sent to Mr. An Yi is a newbie..."

"So what if I’m a newbie?" At this moment, a young girl stood up, glaring at the person by the door, "But I was brought up by Sister Nelly. If I wasn’t skilled, she wouldn’t have brought me along. Besides, I’ve already done Mr. An Yi’s makeup, and he praised me for it!"

"Oh?" Xu Renfei curled his lips, looking at Nelly, "This is getting interesting."

Nelly·Qiao laughed coldly, "Yes, indeed. Alice, explain yourself."

It turns out An Yi knew from the start that Alice was a newbie, newly trained by Nelly·Qiao, so he didn’t trust Alice completely and requested Nelly·Qiao herself several times.

But Nelly·Qiao’s rule is that once she assigns someone, there are no switches. So despite An Yi’s repeated requests, the newbie had no choice but to say that if An Yi was still unsatisfied with her work, he could request someone else in the end.

An Yi agreed.

The newbie then put all her skills to work, bringing out the best of An Yi’s features. Since it was for a reality show, the makeup needed to be natural, so the newbie didn’t overdo it but still highlighted An Yi’s strengths.

In fact, An Yi wasn’t exactly dissatisfied, but when he heard Nelly·Qiao was in Xu Renfei’s makeup room, he felt unbalanced and started seeing flaws in his own makeup.

Considering An Yi’s image, his manager played the bad guy, sending the newbie away and asking for Nelly·Qiao.

Seeing Alice cry in grievance, Nelly·Qiao knew exactly what An Yi was thinking and immediately had the person from An Yi’s side thrown out.

Not long after, someone else knocked and came in, directly asking Nelly·Qiao to do An Yi’s makeup. Nelly·Qiao’s face darkened, "I’ve always done makeup for whoever I want, and no one can force me."

"The people I train are taught by me. If you doubt their makeup skills, you’re doubting my abilities as a master. In that case, I’m certainly not qualified to do An Yi’s makeup either. Go find someone else."
