Chapter 656 - Lin Nuan’s Gaze Was Fixed on Li Muyang

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

It was only then that You Nainai felt at ease.

After hanging up the phone, You Nainai washed her face…

If she were to think about it, things made sense. If that car was really tailing them, then when she pretended to be driving off of the Third Ring but hadn’t really done so, people with the slightest tailing experience would know that they should turn off directly and then think of ways to tail them again! They wouldn’t be following after them so obviously.

It was probably the events that had taken place in Venice that instilled fear in You Nainai, causing her to be traumatized!

Recalling Fu Huai’an’s gaze when she had lost Lin Nuan and hadn’t caught up to the helicopter, You Nainai felt that if they didn’t manage to get Lin Nuan back, Fu Huai’an would immediately take her life.

She mustn’t lose Lin Nuan again. Regardless of whether it was for her career, out of fear for Fu Huai’an, or the fact that she had treated Lin Nuan as her friend, she mustn’t lose Lin Nuan anymore!

After washing her face and heading back, You Nainai didn’t guard outside the dressing room but instead stayed next to Lin Nuan to protect her with her guard up.

The moment You Nainai entered the dressing room, she heard the young makeup artist putting on makeup for Lin Nuan while praising her skin.

“Ms. Lin Nuan’s skin is really good! I feel that Ms. Lin doesn’t have to put on any foundation at all. Your skin is so fair and translucent that it’s like an egg with its shell peeled. It’s so tender!” The makeup artist was left-handed, and the foundation brush in her hand brushed on Lin Nuan’s face rapidly. “So, we’ll just put on a very thin layer!”

You Nainai’s gaze brushed past the young lady’s left hand at the part between her thumb and her index finger. Calluses…

You Nainai subconsciously touched the part of her hand between her thumb and index finger. Calluses formed from holding guns often couldn’t be removed so easily. The calluses on that young lady’s hand were a lot thicker than You Nainai’s.

You Nainai silently stood at the side, picking up the makeup products that the makeup artist had brought. She seemed very interested in them, taking a look and sniffing them. After ascertaining that there were no problems with them, she stood next to Lin Nuan and watched as she put on makeup.

Fang Yan, who was holding a tablet to handle work, raised her head and saw You Nainai standing there. She patted the seat next to her and joked with You Nainai, saying, “Nainai, come over here and have a rest. There’s no one here who’d abduct Nuan Nuan. There’s no need for you to be so tensed up.”

The makeup artist’s gaze brushed past You Nainai, and she smiled even brighter. “Ms. Fang, I heard that your agency is recruiting Ms. Lin’s personal makeup artist. If I do a good job this time around, can you consider me?”

The makeup artist was young and beautiful, and she was also good with her words. Fang Yan smiled and nodded. “Alright. If you can do a good job with our Nuan Nuan’s makeup, I can consider you!”

“Thank you, Ms. Fang!” The young lady expressed her thanks happily.

Fang Yan smiled and didn’t pay it much heed. She had the idea of hiring a personal makeup artist for Lin Nuan for a while, but she was keener on getting someone who she was familiar with and that she could trust. After all, makeup products went on one’s face!

In the past, Fang Yan had taken charge of a pair of twins whose aptitudes were especially good, and they also had outstanding looks. In the end, when they took part in a show while wearing different clothes, there was an audience member who said that the elder sister looked prettier than the younger sister. As a result of this, the younger sister’s fan bribed the makeup artist to add stuff in the makeup products used on the elder sister.

The elder sister was disfigured and left the circle. The younger sister also felt dispirited because her own fan had hurt her elder sister, so she left the circle to take care of her elder sister.

After this lesson, when Fang Yan worked with other celebrities in the future, she would always choose a personal makeup artist whom she could trust for each of them.

Clearly, Fang Yan’s words toward the young lady weren’t sincere at all. She had people she trusted, but… those people were working with other celebrities at the moment, and it wouldn’t be nice for her to steal them over to work for them…

…

Lin Nuan had worked on talk shows previously and was very familiar with the flow.

When Lin Nuan went on stage and took her seat amidst applause from the audience, she chose a seat at the very corner. Seeing that, Su Manman pulled her over to the seat next to her without standing on ceremony.

Lin Nuan looked toward Song Cheng apologetically and was about to stand up when Song Cheng quickly said, “It’s alright. It’s the same no matter where we sit.”

Song Cheng sat next to Director Chen, appearing to be very gentlemanly in his suit and leather shoes.

“Why did you have to drag me over here?” Lin Nuan asked Su Manman.

“I don’t know what the production team is thinking. Given that two people are assigned to take a two-seater sofa, and with how there are already rumors of Song Cheng and me being in a relationship, if we were to sit together, I’d have even less of a chance of chasing Shi Hanchu!” Su Manman lowered her voice.

Lin Nuan was rendered speechless.

Throughout the live broadcast, the bullet screen was filled with praise of Lin Nuan and Su Manman’s great beauty. These comments almost covered up the entire screen.

The questions the host asked didn’t waver too much from what Fang Yan had shown her. The main character today was the director, and Lin Nuan just sat at the side and listened attentively. She only spoke up occasionally when the director or host mentioned her. She didn’t try to steal the limelight, but she was still very eye-catching just by sitting there.

When the director spoke about what got him to film “The Exorcist”, Lin Nuan raised her head and looked over. She saw Li Muyang once again through her unintentional gaze!

Lin Nuan’s hand, which was resting on the sofa’s armrest, clenched tightly. She didn’t turn her gaze away immediately like before. Instead, she looked straight at Li Muyang to ensure that she had seen correctly. Her hands broke out in a sweat.

Li Muyang was still seated in the very middle amongst the audience. When their gazes met, he smiled broadly at Lin Nuan and waved at her without any restraint.

This time around, Li Muyang didn’t see avoidance or fear in Lin Nuan’s eyes. She looked straight at Li Muyang and then toward Ah Zhan, who was seated diagonally to the right behind Li Muyang.

Fu Huai’an wasn’t there, but Lin Nuan forced herself to calm down.

It was like what Fu Huai’an had said. They were in their home country, and no matter how amazing Li Muyang was, he wouldn’t be able to do much here.

“Almost all of the netizens are in admiration of Lin Nuan’s acting skills and say that Lin Nuan is a good actress who was held back by hosting! When Miss Shu Xin saw the trailer previously, she apologized to Lin Nuan. I wish to know if, while filming, Ms. Lin had, after seeing Miss Shu Xin’s Weibo post, thought to yourself that you must act out this character well to prove to Miss Shu Xin that you could play this character well?”

Lin Nuan drew back her gaze and returned to her work condition. She shook her head and smiled slightly. “I only found out about Miss Shu Xin’s Weibo post at a later time. I’m not someone competitive, nor am I as talented as everyone says, having such a great performance in my first attempt at acting! It’s just that the director and all of the other staff members were all working hard. The scenes in the trailer that everyone sees were shot multiple times over. Even though it was just a few scenes, everyone in the production team went through it with me repeatedly. Every time we redid the scene, the lighting and props had to be rearranged from the beginning! All members of the production crew had it hard, especially the cameramen! The reason the effects came out so well is really the results of the hard work of the entire production crew.”
