Chapter 68 Expanded
"Hubby, come on."
"No."
"Why?"
"In no mood."
"Don't you love me anymore?"
"I just don't want to put on makeup. What does it have to do with whether I love you or not?" Xu Jie looked at Su Yun who was putting on makeup in confusion. If Huang Xiaorong and Chen Guo were not there, he would have to have a good talk with her.
It is now 3:30 in the afternoon. In another hour, the entrance ceremony of the Shenzhou Film Festival will begin. The invited guests are making final preparations to show their most dazzling side to their fans and the camera.
Su Yun has changed into her dress. Although the white one-shoulder long dress is an old style from this spring, it still looks like a goddess on her.
Sometimes people choose clothes, and sometimes clothes choose people. The same clothes usually have different effects on different people.
The clothes that female stars wear when attending events are usually carefully selected, for fear of wearing the same clothes as other female stars. However, wearing the same clothes is not scary, but the one who is ugly will be embarrassed.
The reason why Su Yun dared to wear old styles that other female stars had worn was that she was confident that she was not afraid of being outdone by others.
"I am only responsible for beauty, ugliness is other people's business!"
These are her exact words.
Exposing domineering attitude!
"We will appear together at the opening ceremony. I will be dressed up glamorously, but you will be shabby. What will the fans at the scene think? What will the audience in front of the TV think? What will my parents think? What will your parents think?" Su Yun asked a series of soul-searching questions.
"Why do I look so dirty? I've been applying a facial mask every day these days. Besides, why should a man put on makeup? It looks effeminate. It's better to stay natural and manly, right?" Xu Jie asked Chen Guo, hoping to get the other party's agreement.
He was reluctant to wear makeup, mainly because when he was in elementary school and participated in the district art performance, he put a thick layer of powder on his face and blush on both sides of his face. From a distance, he looked like a monkey's butt, and from a close distance, he looked like a little devil, which left him with serious psychological trauma.
Over the years, the most he would do is apply some medicine when the weather was dry, such as essence, lotion, cream or powder, but he never applied it and he didn't have such a habit. On the contrary, he would feel uncomfortable if he applied it.
"Male artists will wear makeup when attending events, not to mention the young and handsome ones, even the tough guys do the same. This will result in better photos. Who doesn't want to look more handsome when in front of the camera?" Chen Guo also advised.
In fact, she felt that if Mr. Xu was taken alone, he didn't look bad, but when he stood with Sister Yun, he looked a bit like a beauty and her bodyguard. If he didn't have plastic surgery, he could only rely on makeup to improve his image, otherwise he would be scolded by Sister Yun's fans.
"First, I'm not an artist. Second, I don't usually wear makeup when I go on TV, and I'm still accepted by TV audiences." Xu Jie rolled his eyes at the other party. This chubby girl is really tactless. She only has the boss in her mind, not the boss's husband . Doesn't she know the power of pillow talk?
After hearing this, Su Yun turned around and looked at Xu Jie with her big eyes that had just been painted with eyeliner, and said, "Hubby, let Guo Guo put on makeup for you, just think of it as being for me, okay?"
After saying that, he blinked his eyes and looked pleading.
Oh shit! Xu Jie thought to himself, “Oh shit!”
If he refused again, what would Huang Xiaorong think, what would Chen Guo think, and what would others think if the news got out?
"Okay." Xu Jie was helpless, but he did not forget to fight for his own interests. "Put on as little makeup as possible. I don't want to appear in public wearing a mask."
"Don't worry, Mr. Xu, you have to believe me. I have studied makeup techniques." Chen Guo looked confident as she opened the makeup box and began to apply something on Xu Jie's face.
Xu Jie had a bitter face, feeling even more uncomfortable than eating a nutritious breakfast.
There is no other way. It is not easy to make money by selling your body and taking money from others to help them get rid of their misfortunes!
After more than twenty minutes, Chen Guo put down his pen, and his brows, which had been furrowed for a long time, finally relaxed, and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.
Xu Jie looked at himself in the mirror and felt an incredible feeling in his heart.
The man in the mirror is him, and yet not him.
It is obviously the same person, but with and without makeup there can be drastic changes. It is really an amazing technique that can be applied for as an intangible cultural heritage.
"Mr. Xu, how is it?" Chen Guo asked proudly.
"He is as handsome as a jade crown, and as good-looking as Pan An." Xu Jie sighed, looked at Chen Guo in distress and asked, "Why do you think I am so handsome?"
Chen Guo's smile immediately froze on her face. She didn't know how handsome the other person was, she only knew that he was shameless.
This is all her credit, okay?
"It seems that the male stars on TV are just so-so. They are probably not as handsome as me without makeup." Xu Jie said again.
Chen Guo was speechless.
Why is this person still swollen after putting on makeup?
She began to regret putting makeup on the other person.
"No, I have to take off my makeup after the film festival, otherwise I will be too attractive." Xu Jie said seriously, then looked at Su Yun, "What do you think?"
"Yeah, that's right." Su Yun nodded with a smile.
Huang Xiaorong and Chen Guo on the side tried hard to hold back their anger and said, "Boss, can you please stop flattering me?"
"Sister Yun, it's almost time." Huang Xiaorong reminded her, mainly because she was afraid that if she continued listening, he would really vomit. Maybe when he arrived at the film festival and saw other male stars, Mr. Xu would be more restrained.
"Well, wait a moment."
Su Yun adjusted her hair in front of the mirror on the dressing table, and was finally satisfied with her look.
"Let's go."
Xu Jie followed Su Yun out of the room, and the staff waiting outside immediately led them to the lobby on the first floor.
At this time, many filmmakers have gathered here, including directors, screenwriters, actors, etc. Each crew is a circle, and everyone will take a bus to the nearby main venue of the film festival according to the order of appearance arranged by the organizer.
Su Yun walked towards one of the circles.
"Su Yun is here."
"Sister Su."
When everyone saw Su Yun, they greeted her.
Su Yun responded with a smile and took the initiative to introduce: "This is my husband Xu Jie, my husband, these are the main creative staff of the movie "Going Home", this is the director Yan Dahong, this is the male lead Peng Kun, this is the female lead Zhou Fangfang, this is..."
Everyone nodded and looked at the mortal who had won over Goddess Su. Everyone knew that Goddess Su had obtained the marriage certificate, and although they had seen the man's photo in the news, they couldn't help but take a few more glances when the real man appeared in front of them.
He seems to look a little stronger than in the photo, and is polite and neither humble nor arrogant. Although he is young, there is a calmness in his eyes.
However, can these alone impress Goddess Su? You know, in the entertainment industry, there is no shortage of good-looking, obedient and sensible young men.
Could he have a background? But the Internet said that he was just a reporter from the Life Channel of Beijing TV Station. What kind of background could he have?
Some people secretly shook their heads. As the old saying goes: You can't have your cake and eat it too. In the entertainment industry, you can only choose one between career and marriage, and Su Yun giving up her career for this man is obviously not a wise choice.
Gradually, everyone stopped paying attention to Su Yun's husband and started chatting in low voices about the interesting things that happened in the past two days and where to go for entertainment after the film festival.
Not long after, the staff signaled the main creators of the movie "Go Home" to get on the bus. Xu Jie and Su Yun were a couple, so they were naturally arranged to get on the same bus.
The road is lined with fences and billboards, and there are police guarding the entire route.
After a minute or two, more and more people gathered outside the fence, and from afar they could see the sound of gongs and drums and waving red flags ahead.
We parked the car and drove into the venue, finally stopping in front of the red carpet, with the car door facing the entrance passage.
This was the first time Xu Jie accompanied Su Yun to a public event, so he couldn't help feeling a little nervous, especially when he saw the huge crowds of people outside, his heart was pounding.
At this time, Su Yun turned to look at Xu Jie, looked at the man, and suddenly said: "Husband, are you ready? We are going to get off the car."
Xu Jie was shocked, but when he saw the smile in Su Yun's eyes, he calmed down: "No one is here to see me, why should I be nervous? Besides, I'm so handsome, why should I be afraid of not being able to see it?"
Thinking of this, a gentle smile appeared on his face.
"Get out of the car, wife!"
Xu Jie opened the car door and seemed to hear the sound of war drums in his ears.
