老司机试看午夜

The staffer was swamped.

East Moon was actually a new brand launched under the umbrella of Lan.

Lan is a world-renowned clothing and luggage brand, boasting many famous designers.

It was the only company in the Great Xia Empire capable of competing with the luxury brands of the Western Continent Dukedom.

However, since East Moon was a niche brand focusing on traditional styles and newly founded, the Lan headquarters didn’t pay it much attention. They simply delegated the work to their subordinates.

Who would have expected Qu Lingyun to personally show up?

And who could have foreseen that Si Fuqing would accidentally get caught in his crosshairs?

The staffer shook his head, his face filled with pity.

Qu Lingyun was not only a director but also a designer.

He had risen to fame at a young age, earning a Glenn Award nomination for his first film at just 22.

He had strict requirements for the faces of his artists.

They didn’t have to be beautiful, but they had to be clean. No makeup was allowed during auditions.

Everyone in the industry knew of Qu Lingyun’s preferences.

Once, a female star even wore no-makeup makeup, only to be found out and lambasted by Qu Lingyun.

His fame was immense, and many artists sought to hitch a ride on his coattails, hoping to soar to new heights in the entertainment industry through roles in his films.

However, he had been focusing on designing clothing and jewelry for the past three years and hadn’t directed any films in quite some time.

It was quite a pity.

Of course, the staffer wouldn’t publicize Qu Lingyun’s unexpected appearance; that would create unnecessary buzz.

Si Fuqing squinted at the staffer for a couple of seconds before leisurely taking out her phone to text Jiang Changning, who was waiting outside.

[Can I go? I’m sure I won’t get selected. It’s a wasted trip; I’d rather go back early and have some hotpot.]

[Jiang Changning]: No, the best I can do is make you a matcha oatmeal cake.

Si Fuqing was very decisive.

[Deal.]

Amazing, food.

She was looking forward to something tasty.

Feeling quite delighted, she put her phone away and looked up, “Is there a private room or makeup room?”

The staffer, already in a foul mood, retorted sharply, “I’ve told you, there’s hot water here. Why not just remove your makeup right here?”

“I’m too ugly,” Si Fuqing replied calmly and unhurriedly. “I’m afraid I’ll scare people if I take off my makeup.”

Staffer: ‘

Crew members:

After contacting the filming director, the event staff finally led Si Fuqing to a

small makeup room next door.

The crowd parted willingly. hilt their gazes followed her as she left-

A soft “click” of a smartphone camera.

It was so quiet that it went unnoticed.

Si Fuqing paused momentarily but remained expressionless as she continued walking forward.

The noise gradually died down, but the auditionees still kept glancing in the direction Si Fuqing had gone.

In a corner on the left, a woman, also wearing sunglasses, stood holding her phone.

After three rings, someone answered.

“Qingyan, guess what? I bumped into Si Fuqing at the audition site!” The woman lowered her voice, clearly excited. “Just now, the staffer came out personally to make her remove her makeup. I don’t know why, but she can’t escape this time. It’s hilarious.”

Ever since Si Fuqing entered the entertainment industry, she had never appeared in public without makeup.

Many paparazzi had tried to capture her natural look but failed.

Si Fuqing seemed quite content with her makeup.

When asked about it on a TV show, she had said that more people would like her this way.

The woman couldn’t understand this at all and thought Si Fuqing was delusional.

“Forced to remove makeup?” Lin Qingyan sounded surprised. “What kind of ad are you shooting that requires this?”

“Just a small ad, the company insisted I come,” the woman scoffed. “But the director is quite picky; no one has passed the first round of auditions yet.” “I’m just trying out. Whether they want me or not is another matter.”

“Going barefaced…” Lin Qingyan smirked. “I think a lot of people would be interested.”

“No doubt,” the woman laughed. “Many people are interested. I haven’t seen her, only heard about her from you. I also want to know how ugly she is.” Lin Qingyan’s smile widened, “Well then, I’ll have to trouble you, Ruotong.”

“No problem, Qingyan, just wait.” Xu Ruotong agreed readily. “I’ll make sure to capture her true face and send it to you later.”

Meanwhile, in the makeup room.

After ushering Si Fuqing in, the event staff hastily left, leaving only a junior assistant behind.

The assistant neatly arranged the makeup removal tools and brought over two basins of hot water. “Miss Si.’

“Alright, thank you. Um, may I ask—” Si Fuqing seemed pensive. “Why did you suddenly pick me and ask me to remove my makeup?”

East Moon, although a very niche brand, had yet to make a name for itself in the clothing market.

The advertisement was the first promotion of the brand

But there were way too many people in the entertainment industry, with countless third, fourth or even eighteenth tier celebrities, many came for audition.

Why is she treated differently?

The junior assistant hesitated for a moment before speaking, “You see, Miss Si, someone from the higher-ups saw your photo on the application form and directly picked you.”

“Why didn’t they just remove me then?” Si Fuqing raised her eyebrows. “There are so many people here. I remember you just auditioned another model; surely my absence won’t make a difference?”

“Uh…” The assistant was also in a difficult position. “The person who came is

Director Qu Lingyun.” Si Fuqing paused, “Who?” “Director Qu Lingyun,” the assistant whispered, “the one who specifically requests no makeup.”

Si Fuqing’s face remained expressionless.

Her emotions were complex.

Suddenly, she felt like not going in.

She had met a fair number of people while at Glenn

If she had to pick someone she regretted knowing, Qu Lingyun would definitely be on the list.

Qu Lingyun was a workaholic, a complete mismatch for her laid-back lifestyle. She’d been forced to get up at two in the morning for consultations with him before.

Whenever she thought about those dark times, she felt that even ten hot pot meals couldn’t compensate her for the ordeal.

While removing her makeup, Si Fuqing thought casually.

Qu Lingyun should be based in Glenn, but even when he was here in Lincheng, he couldn’t forget about work.

He truly was the king of the rat race.

But he didn’t recognize her now.

How wonderful.

After wiping off her makeup remover and rinsing her face with warm water, Si Fuqing took a washcloth from the assistant and patted her face dry.

She then lifted her head.

Her bare face was clearly exposed to the air.

Her skin was fair and glowing, her long hair soft.

Her slender fox eyes were clear and bright, curving in an alluring manner. Like cherry-blossoming in fresh snow, like the purity glowing of the crescent It was as if a radiant light had flowed down from the heavens, accentuating her beauty to the extreme.

Up close, her beauty was overwhelming; no one could resist it. The junior assistant was utterly stunned, mumbling, “Miss Si…” “Thump, thump, thump—”

The only sound in the quiet makeup room was the beating of hearts.

Growing more intense.

“Shh—” Si Fuqing gently placed her finger on the junior assistant’s lips, chuckling softly, “Can we keep this a secret for now?”

The junior assistant nodded her head in a daze, her mind completely foggy.

“Good girl.” Si Fuqing pinched her cheek, put on her mask, and smiled, “Let’s

At the audition venue.

A staff member knocked on the door, “Director Qu, I’ve brought the person.”

As soon as Qu Lingyun arrived, the filming director naturally gave up the core position to him.

He was also quite curious about just how unattractive Si Fuqing could be to insist on not showing her bare face.

“Alright, bring her in,” Qu Lingyun glanced at the time, “I don’t have much time left; I’ll interview her and then leave..”
