“This is insane, what kind of magical makeup technique is this?”
“I still find it unbelievable. This isn’t motherf*cking makeup. It’s literally like changing another person’s head!”
“The burn was actually turned into a plum blossom and there’s no trace of the scar anymore. This technique is unparalleled.”
“I bet Y can even beautify a pig into a hot chick!”
…
Everyone was riled up in excitement. They had witnessed the birth of a miracle with their own eyes.
Each and every person within the entire Augea headquarters was stunned.
“This… How is this possible?!” The CEO’s pupils shrank suddenly, then screamed as if she had seen an extremely terrifying thing. Her face was hot and felt painful, as if it had been hit.
She could see that the person was indeed Qiao Shanshan, but that kind of makeup technique was simply appalling. It could only be compared to magical skills, and their own cosmetics company could never be a match for it.
Terrifying! It defied natural order! It was much too atypical in the makeup world!
“F*ck me, how did he do it? The plum blossom was done perfectly. If our company masters this technique, we can conquer the universe on a whim.”
“Unbelievable! Shocking! It causes everyone despair!”
The expressions of everyone who was smiling happily stiffened abruptly. It was replaced by sheer horror and they were all exclaiming constantly.
“Um… Boss, are we still going to Swallow Diner later?” someone asked weakly.
“Like hell we are! F*ck off!” The boss had a hideous expression, and with nowhere to vent her anger, she screamed, “All you do is eat every day! You’re fired!”
…
At that point, everyone inside Y Cosmetics was looking at Qiao Shanshan and remained transfixed on her for quite some time.
Ring-ding-ding!
Qiao Shanshan’s cell phone rang just then. She looked at the caller ID and was taken aback because it was the company that she had signed with last time.
There was no way for her to show herself after the disfigurement and the contracting company would never ask her to participate in any events either.
“Sister Hong?”
“Qiao Shanshan, it’s really you?!”
“What do you mean ‘it’s really me’? What’s the matter?” Qiao Shanshan was rather taken aback.
“The person in Y Cosmetics really is you! I’ll be damned. This is unbelievable!” Sister Hong’s voice trembled in a convoluted array of mixed emotions. “Your appearance makes for a very suitable candidate for a TV series, and the supporting cast at that!”
“Really?”
Qiao Shanshan felt like all the good things were falling onto her lap. She felt dizzy. Was it light at the end of a tunnel for her?
“Really! This is a fairy tale drama. The requirement for the daughter’s character is exactly the same as your appearance! A good performance might even be able to surpass the female lead. Come over quickly!”
“Okay, I’ll head back now!”
Qiao Shanshan was as excited as a child who received candy and it showed on her face.
This call was not loud, but it was heard by many people there. They all looked at Qiao Shanshan with envy and instantly knew that the goddess would return with a different temperament.
The makeup had undoubtedly changed Qiao Shanshan’s entire life!
Despite that, Qiao Shanshan’s expression changed slightly and she looked at Zhang Yunxi. She opened her mouth with the intention of saying something, but no words came out of it.
Zhang Yunxi smiled and said, “I know what you want to say. I’ve watched your makeup process. You can come to me for help in the future, but there will be charges.”
Although her technique was not as good as Ye Lingchen, she could still copy the process entirely and create a satisfactory outcome.
“Thank you! I really appreciate it!” Qiao Shanshan bowed deeply toward Zhang Yunxi, then walked out of the cosmetics store.
At the same time, someone had already posted the photo online at…
[I heard that Y Cosmetics has incredible makeup techniques. I had to change bus routes three times and take a flight here just to witness the miracle with my own eyes. No one was optimistic before they started the makeup session, but I was shocked after the makeup was applied. This isn’t just makeup; it’s magic! It really is frightening! PS. Qiao Shanshan is like a fairy. She is so amazing! Love her, love her!]
The incident had been fizzing online even before Qiao Shanshan underwent the makeup session. After all, Qiao Shanshan attracted a lot of attention herself. In addition to her burn scars, many were waiting to see how Y Cosmetics would deal with it. Besides, there were also driving forces behind it, so the foundation to create a sensation was already there.
When someone posted on the internet two comparative photos of before and after the makeup, a large group of people was practically blinded by that sight.
TikTok, Weibo, and Toutiao were all swamped by it!
Some were prepared to have a laugh, but they were completely stumped instead and became absolutely convinced by it.
[F*ck you! Do you think we’re stupid? Are these two photos even the same person?!]
[AH F*CK, this makeup technique is just too amazing. Is that flower painted on the face a work of art?]
[F*cking awesome. Bringing makeup to such a level is unheard of. Does this mean that any motherf*cking woman can be transformed into a fairy?]
[I suddenly have an interesting idea. If I had this skill, I’d help my girlfriend put on various looks every day, hehehe…]
[Upstairs, I’ll put makeup on them according to the looks of female stars. Hehehe…]
[God, what a bunch of wretched people! I have to say though, the idea is very unique.]
Those exclamations were only a small part overall. Women were the ones that truly went insane!
The issue of complexion was capable of driving any woman mad.
[Ahhhhh, it’s so dreamlike. I’m begging Y to help me put on makeup once. Just once. Let me be the most beautiful woman in the world for one day… No, one hour!]
[Y, as long as you can help me do my makeup, I’ll promise you everything. Really.]
[I feel like you’re able to enter the entertainment industry right away if you can ask Y to help you with your makeup. He’s practically creating beautiful women at will!]
[Qiao Shanshan is really lucky! She got to know Y Cosmetics at her most desperate moment. How envious!]
[No one can stop me! I’ll fly to Capital tonight! I will only approve of Y Cosmetics in the future.]
[When will Y Cosmetics open another branch? Come to our city. Ah, ah, ah! They’re too good.]
[Didn’t you hear? Manager Zhang Yunxi can also help Qiao Shanshan do her makeup! She’s obviously a closeted disciple of Y. She’ll be up to the task as well when you ask for her in the future!]
…
There was no doubt that Y Cosmetics’ status had been proven yet again. The effects of having a star, as opposed to any random effect, made everyone impressed with Y Cosmetics’ stunning comeback.
In the evening, the entertainment news put Qiao Shanshan on the headline and immediately soared to first on the trending searches list!
[Fallen from grace and in a time of despair, the ugly duckling turns into a white swan. What kind of experience is this?]
Ye Lingchen did not pay much attention to the aftermath of the incident. All he cared about was his popularity value. However, as he guessed accurately, the sum of his popularity value obtained on that occasion was far less than the first time. It only increased by 60,000, but he was relieved in spite of that. After all, the two events were practically the same thing, so the overlaying effect was certainly going to be very limited.
