Chapter 218: 218: Satisfied

As Jing Lu turned back to the mirror in front of her, there were two huge letters written on it with the foundation from before…

SB! *(Sha Bi = Idiot in Chinese)

The bold letters on the mirror managed to completely cover Jing Lu’s face.

Jing Lu was mind blown with rage.

On the other hand, Weiwei felt pity for the foundation that had gotten wasted but seeing the angry look on Jing Lu’s face made it all worth it.

Seeing that the cameras were about to roll soon, Weiwei took her time finishing Jing Lu’s makeup.

Jing Lu got bullied and was filled with anger at this point, which was why she didn’t want to stay there any longer. She took a look at the makeup on her face as she thought to herself that this was why Weiwei was hired as the Chief makeup artist of the production crew. She thanked Weiwei for her effort and left after complimenting Weiwei on her skills.

She didn’t even bat an eye at Jing Qian before leaving the room.

Jing Qian finally sat at the table after Jing Lu was gone.

*****

The shoot was about to start. All the directors and actors were there, including Yunxiao, but Jing Qian was nowhere to be seen.

“What’s the matter? Where’s Jing Qian? She’s in the first scene. Why isn’t she here yet?”

Pan Wei looked around, pissed when noticed that Jing Qian was missing.

Even if you had back-up, it didn’t matter if you didn’t have any acting skills, but you should at least be professional. Being late on set was unacceptable.

When Pan Wei asked, Jing Lu had a bad feeling about this. She finally understood why Jing Qian had allowed her to do her makeup first. Jing Qian was now the person who would never give anything to her, but Jing Qian didn’t say a single thing when she took over Jing Qian’s dressing room a while ago, even allowing Jing Lu to do her makeup first.

Jing Qian was such a b*tch!

“Director Pan, I arrived at the same time as Jing Qian. She immediately went for hair and make-up after she arrived. I’m sure she’ll be done soon.”

Qin Yi was just about to stand up for Jing Qian but Yunxiao already spoke up before him.

“It’s true, director. I came at the same time as Jing Qian, and I even met her at the entrance. It’s almost an hour, so I’m sure she’ll be done very soon.”

Yan Meiqi, who had made a mistake and was trying her best to restore her image in front of Yunxiao, stood up for Jing Qin as well.

Pan Wei had no other choice but to suppress his anger.

This was why he hated those that came with connections!

In the end, they waited for a long time, but Pan Wei could no longer hold his anger in.

He roared in rage, “What makeup is she doing that has to take so long?! All of us are waiting for her! Can’t she be a little bit more professional?!”

Before Yunxiao could say a word, Pan Wei interrupted him, “Yunxiao, not that I’m disrespecting you, but as an actor for so many years, you know how important punctuality is. She is a new actress and isn’t being as punctual as she should. Can’t I say something about this?”

Yunxiao stared at Director Pan.

Director Pan was right, but… No one was allowed to scream at his dear sister.

“Of course you can, but you aren’t even aware of what happened. What if you accused her? I believe that Jing Qian became delayed because of something important.”

Director Pan had a speechless look on his face while Qin Yi wore a wary look. Yan Meiqi was trying to stay composed while Jing Lu was dissatisfied with it; only Luo Jiani snorted with a soft voice that was only audible to her.

“Hmph! I would really like to know what is happening that kept her there and see if I’ve accused her.”

“Director, I’ll go and take a look. Big sister has quite a temper and it’ll be better if I speak to her first,” Jing Lu immediately spoke up in fear.

She had to quickly find a chance to talk to Jing Qian so that Jing Qian wouldn’t rat her out.

Just as Jing Lu took one step forward, she was stopped by Yunxiao.

“You’re not even close with your sister. Are you sure you’re going there to help her?”

The look in his eyes was as sharp as a knife, piercing through Jing Lu’s heart.
