Yang Haoran thought to himself, ‘Her brows, eyeliner, and eyelashes are done. Not bad. The makeup artist didn’t skip any important steps!’

He was satisfied.

However, Song Ci did not feel the same way. She looked at the thick eyeshadow and frowned ever so slightly.

“Can you wipe off the thick eyeshadow?”

The makeup artist tried to convince her otherwise, “You might be unaware since you’re not that experienced, but light makeup doesn’t really suit your character. Moreover, the lighting will make it look like you have nothing on at all. That’s not ideal!”

“I understand where you’re coming from, but I still feel light makeup is better. He Lian Er is a student who has just entered university. She’s supposed to be around 18 years old. I’m not that young anymore. If I put on heavy makeup, I won’t look like a university student.”

Song Ci replied calmly.

The makeup artist smiled and poured some makeup remover on a piece of cotton.

“You’re a newbie, right? I’ve never seen you before. Actors nowadays aren’t senseless. The director is aware of your concerns too. However, we still applied makeup this way because the audience only cares about looks! Only newbies bother with fitting into a role.”

Song Ci listened and smiled helplessly. She knew the makeup artist was right. Nowadays, actors no longer act for the sake of art. Most only cared about money and popularity. So what if they did not fit the characters? Being beautiful or handsome was enough. For instance, some photos were heavily edited but people still liked them!

Still, Song Ci wanted to give her best shot. Being an actress had always been her dream. Even if there was only a slight chance of success, she would pursue it!

The makeup artist asked again, “Have you made up your mind about light or heavy makeup? Think carefully. I won’t be responsible if a problem arises.”

Song Ci nodded.

“I’ll go with light makeup. Thank you for your advice.”

The makeup artist proceeded to remove Song Ci’s makeup. Then, she applied a more natural look on her.

When Song Ci looked into the mirror, she was pleased.

He Lian Er was a poor college student and all she cared about was protecting her sister. Thick makeup did not really suit her character.

Song Ci thanked the makeup artist again.

“No need to thank me. My work will be much easier if everyone is like you. Anyway, hurry up and try on your attires. We need to make sure everything fits.”

Song Ci nodded and went into the changing room.

Since Song Ci’s character was a young university student, most of the clothes assigned to her had refreshing colors such as white and blue. They were also simple and elegant. For example, one getup consisted of a simple white hoodie, light blue jeans, and a pair of white sports shoes.

Once Song Ci was done changing, she returned to the makeup artist. The latter looked at her and finally understood her words from earlier.

“I’m going to change your hairstyle again. He Lian Er has a cold and despondent personality, but you look a little bright and lively.”

Song Ci nodded and sat down, being very cooperative.

The makeup artist was patient and meticulous. Once the styling was done, she said in a satisfied tone, “There we go. Now, you really fit the description of He Lian Er.”

Song Ci looked at herself in the mirror. She could not help but exclaim, “You’re amazing! I thought He Lian Er was only cold and empty, but you managed to bring out other emotions without going against her personality.”
