Chapter 542: He’s My Husband

Today was the day that Tang Zhiyun and the others set up the defense system for their clients. Chu Luo asked, “Senior, when are you going to the other company?”

Tang Zhiyun replied quickly, “We’ve already set off.”

Chu Luo sent him an emoticon to cheer him on.

Tang Zhiyun replied with a thank you emoticon and said, “When this project is over, we will treat you and Brother Li to a meal.”

Chu Luo smiled. “Sure. Let’s call Sister Wu and Taozi along.”

After this meal, they could only see each other at Chu Luo and Li Yan’s wedding.

The two of them only chatted for a while before stopping.

The car drove for nearly an hour before arriving at the film studio complex.

The film studio complex on the weekend, even in the cold morning, was already packed with people and bustling with activity.

These people were basically here to tour the film complex or watch their idol.

Chu Luo looked at the people queuing up to buy tickets by the door and couldn’t help but mutter, “Don’t tell me these people came over before dawn? Is there a need to be so early just to tour the film studio?”

Just as she finished mumbling, she saw many people holding a familiar celebrity photo. That celebrity happened to be here for the cosmetics endorsement audition today.

“So it’s a group of fans chasing after celebrities. But I just decided last night to let these people come to the film studio for the audition. How did these fans find out so quickly?”

Li Yan drove into an alley beside the film studio complex. As he drove, he said, “Someone must have posted on Weibo overnight.”

Chu Luo browsed Weibo and snorted in dissatisfaction. “It’s indeed this Ci Jing.”

“Since you don’t like this person, why did you let him come for the audition?”

“I asked Chen Xuan to release the news that all the celebrities in the capital can come for the audition. He wasn’t on the list before. He probably saw the news later.”

As the boss, she had to set aside her prejudice against someone. Even if she didn’t want this person in the end, she couldn’t make it obvious at the onset.

“In any case, this person definitely won’t be the endorser for my cosmetics in the end. It’s fine to let him audition though.”

“Mm.”

…

Phoenix Cosmetics wasn’t too famous in the empire, and only the ladies of the upper-class society knew about it.

However, in Europe and America, this brand was raved among the upper-class ladies. It was a limited edition item that many people wanted to buy but couldn’t.

As celebrities, the people who came for the audition today could be said to have made ample preparations. The celebrities and models who came were also very famous. Everyone had assistants and bodyguards.

However, when the door of the dressing room opened and Ci Jing was escorted in by a group of bodyguards and assistants, everyone’s hearts skipped a beat.

“Why is Ci Jing here? Didn’t they say that he’s not going to take on any advertisement endorsements recently?”

“That’s because there aren’t any luxury goods he wants to take on recently. Who doesn’t know that Ci Jing is especially picky when it comes to accepting advertisement endorsements? If it’s not a luxury item, he simply wouldn’t be interested.”

“He’s already a movie king, yet he’s still here to snatch this advertisement endorsement from us. Is he going to let us live or not?”

“No wonder even though Phoenix Corporation released the news that all the celebrities and models in the capital can come for the audition, not many came. They must have retreated because they knew he was coming.”

“How can you believe that? Who doesn’t know that Ci Jing is doing very well in the capital? Maybe he did something behind everyone’s backs that made others not dare to come.”

“Luckily, we were recommended by the management company previously. Otherwise, we might have been stopped by him this time.”

“Then he’s really capable. In that case, could he be the endorser chosen by Phoenix Corporation and we’re just here for show?”

“It’s possible. After all, the meaning behind his post last night was obvious.”

“How unlucky. If I had known, I wouldn’t have pushed aside other activities to audition for this endorsement that was already internally decided!”

“What are you worried about? Phoenix Corporation is different from other companies. They couldn’t possibly have already internally decided on the endorser since they’re asking so many of us to come to the audition.”

Facing everyone’s peeking, sizing up, and whispering, Ci Jing didn’t seem to notice. He arrogantly walked to the best seat and sat down.

The assistant’s eyes darted around and he deliberately flattered him loudly, “Brother Ci, CEO Yan specifically asked you to audition for the endorsement of Phoenix Cosmetics this time. I feel that it’s a pity that you turned down the fashion week event to France.”

Another assistant quickly added, “Brother Ci only came because of CEO Yan. It’s no pity. Besides, only someone like Brother Ci is qualified to endorse Phoenix Cosmetics.”

“What are you two talking about? Those who don’t know better might think that I’m not strict enough with my subordinates. Shut up.” Although Ci Jing said that, he didn’t have any intention of blaming them.

The two assistants immediately assured him that they wouldn’t spout anymore nonsense.

However, the tone of the two assistants made the others feel uncomfortable. The woman among the man and woman sitting at the side finally snorted unhappily. “You really think you’ve already obtained the endorsement of Phoenix Corporation? You’re just scaring people who don’t know the truth.”

As soon as the woman finished speaking, the man sitting beside her, who looked like he was resting with his eyes closed and exuding a faint noble aura, finally opened his eyes and glanced at her. He reminded her, “Be careful with your words.”

“What did I say wrong? He was the one who deliberately made those comments to make everyone retreat. Hmph! That’s why no matter how he tried to portray himself as a person in the upper echelons, he still couldn’t mask the unworthiness in him.”

The man ignored what the woman said and continued to close his eyes.

At this moment, the door to the dressing room was pushed open again.

Then, they heard footsteps coming in.

Everyone looked up.

A group of makeup artists entered.

A staff member walking in front said to everyone, “Everyone, do your makeup first. After that, we’ll start the audition.”

Ci Jing’s assistant immediately asked, “Can our Brother Ci use his own makeup artist?”

The staff looked at the person who asked the question strangely. “Didn’t you see the requirements before you came? Everyone who comes for the audition today must use our makeup artists.”

“But the makeup artists you hired are all unfamiliar. Don’t tell me they’re new to the job.”

“That’s right. All the makeup artists we hired today are from a few wedding photo studios in Imperial City.”

Pfft!

When this was said, many people made a ‘pfft’ sound.

Many people started complaining softly.

“Are you kidding me? Phoenix Corporation is such a famous luxury cosmetics company, but they actually hired makeup artists from a wedding photo studio to help everyone put on makeup.”

“Maybe this is the company’s first test for us.”

“It’s also possible, but can these people create the effect that the company wants?”

…

While everyone was whispering, Ci Jing stood up and walked to a makeup mirror to sit down. He said, “I’ll listen to the company’s arrangements.”

Since Ci Jing had already said so, no matter how displeased the others were, they suppressed it.

Those who moved quickly occupied the few makeup mirrors that were left.

Those who were slow could only sit on the stools and let the makeup artist do their makeup without a mirror.

Chu Luo followed behind a group of makeup artists. She stood by the door and scanned the entire dressing room before walking towards a corner.

Li Yan followed behind her and helped her carry her makeup bag.

The two of them stopped at a man and woman sitting on stools in the corner. Chu Luo said, “Hello, we don’t have enough makeup artists. If you don’t mind, I’ll help you two do your makeup later.”

The woman glanced at Chu Luo and then at Li Yan. She subconsciously asked, “Aren’t there two of you?”

Chu Luo smiled and said, “He’s my husband. He’s only helping me carry my makeup bag.”

Chu Luo’s voice wasn’t soft. When she said that, the celebrity and makeup artist sitting at the side turned around.

Someone couldn’t help but deliberately smile and say, “This is the first time I’ve seen a makeup artist make her husband carry her makeup bag.”

These words made many people wonder: ‘Could this man be living off his wife?’

When Li Yan heard Chu Luo’s words, his cold eyes became warm. Especially when Chu Luo called him ‘Hubby’, his heart melted. At this moment, he was still slowly sizing her up, thinking that he would definitely make her call him that more.

Chu Luo didn’t care about everyone’s gazes and asked the two of them, “I wonder who will let me do their makeup first?”

The man sitting there glanced at Li Yan and said, “Ladies first.”

Chu Luo nodded and gestured to Li Yan. “Yan, go get a stool so that you can place the cosmetics on it later.”

“I can help you hold it.”

“You’ll be tired.”

“No.”

The two people opposite him and everyone else: “…”

Were these two here to put on makeup for them or to show off their affection?!

“Hmph!” At this moment, a disdainful voice came from afar. “You really think this is a wet market? There are all kinds of people here.”

Everyone subconsciously turned around.

When they saw who was sitting there, a few people couldn’t help but whisper.

“Isn’t this the Bi Zhu who broke up with her boyfriend not long ago? She can’t stand seeing couples showing off their affection in front of her, can she?”

“I don’t think so. Who doesn’t know that her relationship with Mu Yang is a result of hype? When the popularity fell, they broke up.”

“Maybe she really fell for him but he didn’t take her seriously at all.”

“In that case, she’s really pitiful.”

“What’s so pitiful about that? Everyone is just taking what they need. She’s the one who unilaterally wants to break the rules of the game.”

“That’s right. In this kind of circle, many people are just putting on a show for the fans. It’s Bi Zhu who can’t afford to play.”

“How stupid.”
