That surprised Hua Jin. “What’s the matter?”
“Do you think we’ll ever get our own bodies back? Will I have to keep living my life as you?”
“Isn’t that nice?” The man smiled. “You got off easy!”
“How am I getting off easy?”
“See, I’m better-looking, richer, and more famous than you. You, on the other hand, have nothing. You find it so hard to even meet your idol. If that’s not a bargain for you, what is?” he said disapprovingly.
Liang Yin was speechless for a moment.
She asked him back, “What about you? Are you just going to… meet me in secret?”
“A ‘private rendezvous’?” The actor’s eyes narrowed suspiciously.
Only then did Liang Yin realize that she had given the wrong idea and immediately corrected herself. “If anyone finds out, this will be considered a scandal, right?”
The actor rubbed his chin, thinking this was going to be tricky.
He couldn’t keep meeting Liang Yin in secret like this. He needed to think of a legitimate way.
Suddenly, an idea came to him. “Why don’t I apply to be an assistant?”
“Assistant?”
“Uh-huh. Newly hired assistant. She’ll take care of your daily needs. She’ll be in charge of your events. At the same time, she’ll help you improve and polish your acting skills.”
Even after hearing this, she did not come out of the daze. The acting was indeed a relatively big problem they had to solve. She already felt nervous and at a loss when facing the camera, let alone having to act.
The assistant outside the door tried to hurry him again. “Hua Jin, we can’t do this. We’re running out of time! Are you done showering?”
The actor gave Liang Yin a knowing look and ducked into the closet.
The girl stood up and walked to the closet to make sure he was hidden before letting his assistant in. Following behind the assistant was the stylist.
Liang Yin said awkwardly, “That…”
“We’re running late, we’re running late!” The assistant quickly ushered the stylist in and pushed Liang Yin towards the sofa. She also brought in the spotlights and makeup kit and began the huge task of putting on makeup for the man.
Actually, the actor had a good foundation, but still, there was a difference before and after the makeup.
While the stylist was putting on her makeup, Liang Yin watched the assistant nervously as she darted around the room, spreading blankets and rummaging through the cloakroom. She was worried that she would discover Hua Jin’s hiding place.
It would be impossible to explain why a girl was hiding in the closet.
Seeing the assistant fumbling towards the closet where Hua Jin was hiding, Liang Yin suddenly said, “Hey!”
The assistant turned around and pointed at herself. “Master Jin… were you calling out to me?”
“Uh… uh huh.”
Liang Yin nodded. She didn’t know the name of this assistant.’
She waved at her and said, “Come here!”
The assistant came over with the clothes. Liang Yin said, “I want to hire another assistant.”
The assistant looked uneasy at that. “Master Jin… did I do something wrong, such that… you wish to replace me?”
“I want to recruit an additional one.” Liang Yin muttered, “I only have one assistant. It’s not enough.”
“Master Jin, have you forgotten? You have three assistants…”
Liang Yin looked embarrassed for a moment. She wondered why Hua Jin hadn’t told her about this.
But three assistants? That’s ridiculous!
Not even the emperor is so grand!
“I just want a new assistant! I don’t mean anything by it. I’m just asking for your opinion. Is that okay?”
