He was trying on suits to wear to the film festival.
“Do you have to walk with the production crew twice?” Han Zhuoli asked.
Lu Man was helping him to neaten his appearance and nodded. “Yeah, I will walk once with Greedy Wolf Operation and then again with Red Tiger.”
Han Zhuoli stood still and let Lu Man tidy his look. “Doesn’t that mean I won’t be able to walk the red carpet with you?”
“If both of us walk the red carpet together, won’t we scare people to death?” Right after Lu Man said that, the shop assistant came over with the gown that Lu Man had picked.
It was an exquisite and intricately-made gown. It could only be worn with the help of the shop assistant.
Lu Man did not have a sponsor yet, so she could only rent or buy her own gown.
Han Zhuoli would definitely not let her rent the gown and directly bought it.
“I have already asked Shi Xiaoya and Cris to make time. They will be in charge of your styling,” Han Zhuoli said.
Lu Man naturally would not stand on formalities with Han Zhuoli.
It was really impressive that Shi Xiaoya could become one of the top makeup artists in the industry.
Without Lu Man needing to say anything, Shi Xiaoya could come up with the best makeup look for Lu Man based on Lu Man’s aura.
The makeup that was done by her before fully fitted Lu Man’s desired look.
Hence, Lu Man was most willing that Han Zhuoli arranged Shi Xiaoya for her.

In the blink of an eye, they reached the day of the film festival’s awards ceremony.
Han Zhuoli drove Lu Man to Yi Garden first to meet Xia Qingwei and Wang Juhuai before heading to the hotel near the venue for the film festival.
Shi Xiaoya and Cris were waiting for them there.
Lu Man and Xia Qingwei put on their makeup and changed into their gowns.
When they were about to leave, Han Zhuoli received a call from Han Zhuoling. “Big Brother.”
To whatever Han Zhuoling said, Han Zhuoli’s reply was, “We haven’t left.”
Han Zhuoli told him the room number of the hotel room and said, “You can just come over.”
After he ended the call, Lu Man asked, “What is it?”
“He didn’t say clearly on the phone, but it sounded like his face was hurt a little. He asked me if the makeup artists are still here and if they are, he wants to come and have them conceal his wound,” Han Zhuoli briefly explained. “We can ask him more when he comes.”
Cris was already free, so Shi Xiaoya said, “You can go to the venue and prepare first. I will go over and find you later.”
Shi Xiaoya and Cris were a team, and both of them came from huge families. However, they did not follow the paths that their families had set for them and, instead, set up a work studio together under the Han Corporation to pursue their interests.
Cris was in charge of styling while Shi Xiaoya was in charge of makeup.
Cris was also invited this time because there was a Best Original Styling Award in the film festival.
Cris designed the outfits and style for a particular movie, so he was nominated as well.
Cris then brought his assistant and left first. After he left, the room became half empty, so it immediately felt more spacious.
Not long after, the doorbell rang.
Shi Xiaoya went to open the door and saw Han Zhuoling standing at the door with a glum look on his face.
His glum expression scared Shi Xiaoya until she almost stopped breathing.
“Mr… Mr. Han?” Shi Xiaoya addressed him weakly. She had never seen such a scary face before.
Han Zhuoling nodded at her slightly. He wanted to come in, but the entrance was blocked by Shi Xiaoya.
Han Zhuoling’s gaze fell silently on Shi Xiaoya’s shoulder.
Shi Xiaoya’s neck suddenly turned cold and got goosebumps all over. The moment she met Han Zhuoling’s stern and aloof gaze, she subconsciously took two steps back.
Han Zhuoling seized the chance to walk in.
Shi Xiaoya then realized that she had been blocking the door and preventing him from coming in.
