Chapter 148 Xie Lingzhou's Defenses Are Broken
Tianyu has its own styling team, which, while not the top in the industry, is still first-class. Huang Kai is currently in this team.
Last year, when Tianyu's styling team was recruiting, Chi Yuan overheard them while getting his makeup done and casually mentioned that he could let his friend try out for the job. He even showed the person in charge many of the looks Huang Kai had done for him before. That's how Huang Kai successfully joined Tianyu. Now, at Tianyu, he's a makeup artist who can do makeup for second-tier and above celebrities, and he's very popular.
Chi Yuan was going to attend an event, so she naturally asked Huang Kai for makeup.
Xiao Zhao knew about the relationship between Chi Yuan and Huang Kai, so after dropping Chi Yuan off at the dressing room, he left to attend to other matters and didn't stay with him the whole time.
As soon as Chi Yuan sat down, he took out the brooch that Jiang Haochen had given him that morning: "Does this brooch match my clothes? If not, get me a different outfit."
Huang Kai poked Chi Yuan's face with a makeup brush, tapping and poking: "Do you know how much effort I put into matching your clothes and designing your look? You didn't even look at it, and the first thing you did was say you wanted to change, all for a cheap brooch?"
After Huang Kai finished poking around, Chi Yuan whispered, "It's not a broken brooch; it was a gift from Mr. Jiang."
Huang Kai gave him an "I knew it" look, staring at the brooch in the box for a while with his discerning eyes: "Not bad taste."
Chi Yuan's eyes lit up: "Can we build one?"
Huang Kai: "Even if I can't give you a ride, I'll still give you one, otherwise you'll definitely sneak off on your own."
He doesn't know Chi Yuan well enough. Let alone a diamond brooch, he'd wear even a blade of grass on the red carpet if it was a gift from Jiang Haochen.
Chi Yuan chuckled, which was taken as tacit agreement.
Huang Kai lifted Chi Yuan's chin impatiently: "Sit still, let's start the makeup."
Chi Yuan obediently raised his neck as Huang Kai carefully applied foundation to Chi Yuan's skin, sweeping the makeup brush all the way down to Chi Yuan's neck, catching a glimpse of red through the gap in his clothes.
Huang Kai clicked his tongue: "It came from Jiang Haochen's bed."
Chi Yuan stood up to speak, but Huang Kai pressed him back down: "Don't move. You have marks on your body."
Chi Yuan could only obediently continue tilting his head back: "Will it cover me?"
Huang Kai: "I've prepared a suit for you without a shirt underneath. We'll see how it looks after you put it on. If it doesn't work, we'll add another layer underneath."
Chi Yuan obediently hummed in agreement.
Looking at Chi Yuan's obedient appearance, Huang Kai hesitated for a moment before finally asking, "How are things between you and Jiang Haochen lately?"
Chi Yuan: "It's fine."
Thinking about Mr. Jiang's recent attitude towards him, Chi Yuan even wondered.
Chi Yuan: "Huang Kai, do you think Mr. Jiang would agree if I brought up contract renewal with him? Ouch!"
Chi Yuan was poked hard on the head with a brush by Huang Kai: "Can't you be a little more respectable? You're a top-tier celebrity with tens of millions of fans now, can't you stop lowering your standards like this?"
Chi Yuan stammered, "I just feel that Mr. Jiang has been treating me quite well lately, so he might like me a little."
Huang Kai: "Just because he sleeps with you more often, does that mean he likes you? Men are driven by their lower instincts. When they're in a bad mood, they'll go out and find someone else to have sex with, let alone a top-tier bottom like you who's practically throwing herself at them. If he really liked you, would he make you so insecure? Look at how eager he is for Xie Lingzhou, he practically wants the whole world to know he's pursuing him."
Chi Yuan wasn't unaware of these things; he just couldn't bear to part with them.
Before you get something, you feel that it's good enough to have had it at all. Once you have it, you wish you could have it forever. Even if you're destined to lose it someday, it's good to delay it by one day.
Huang Kai continued muttering, "He contacts you so often because you're working on the same film set now, making it easy for you to meet. Before, whenever you went back to City B, you were always together, weren't you? Besides, I told you long ago that from the moment you agreed to be his sugar daddy, there was no future for you two."
Two years ago, Huang Kai told him that he could put his clothes back on in front of anyone except Jiang Haochen.
Chi Yuan's face paled slightly: "I was just saying."
Huang Kai didn't expose his thoughts: "Your most important thing right now is to do well in your career. If you don't want to always be seen as just a minor celebrity who got ahead by sleeping with him, then make yourself stronger and try to win a Best Actor award. That way, when he sees you again, he'll re-evaluate you."
Chi Yuan knew Huang Kai meant well, so he smiled and agreed, "Okay, I'll try my best."
Huang Kai laughed along, "Let's go try on the clothes."
Chi Yuan changed his clothes and came out. The tailor-made suit fit his body perfectly, making his already slender waist look even thinner.
As Huang Kai looked you over, he clicked his tongue in admiration: "That waist-to-body ratio makes even a natural bottom like me want to be the one to top."
Chi Yuan snapped, "Get lost!"
Huang Kai, with the certainty of a prophet, asked, "When you and President Jiang were doing it, wasn't the position mostly rear-entry?"
Chi Yuan recalled that recently, Mr. Jiang seemed to really like to ( ) him from behind.
Huang Kai joked, but seeing that Chi Yuan was actually enjoying it, he felt like he'd been shown off. Putting everything else aside, just judging from Chi Yuan's reaction, President Jiang's skills in bed must be pretty good.
Huang Kai helped Chi Yuan fasten the diamond brooch of the thorn rose, glanced at Chi Yuan's final look, and said, "The mark is covered, but it can still be seen if the neckline is loosened a little. Let me fix it for you."
Huang Kai had Chi Yuan undress, and then hand-painted a thorny rose around the mark, subtly hidden in the collar, echoing the rose brooch. It was alluring, captivating yet elusive. Yet, Chi Yuan's clean-cut demeanor prevented it from appearing vulgar.
Such an outfit naturally attracted attention on the red carpet, and after the photographer noticed the rose drawing on Chi Won's chest, the camera was almost glued to that spot.
As soon as Chi Yuan stepped off the red carpet, he became a trending topic on social media.
The Fox Ancestor is the Fox Ancestor; she's a succubus no matter where she is.
Chi Won walked the red carpet with the cast and crew of "The Emperor's Power." After entering the venue, the female lead stared at the rose on Chi Won's chest and teased, "Little Chi Won, can you open it up and let your older sister see it?"
Chi Yuan blushed and awkwardly covered himself with his hand. His actions only made the surrounding people commotion more.
"Hidden so deeply? This drawing isn't meant to cover up something shameful, is it?"
Chi Yuan hurriedly explained, "No, it's a stylist's design."
Yan Chuan looked away angrily. Did this guy even know what it meant to "protest too much"? However, as he turned his head, he met Xie Lingzhou's gaze. Xie Lingzhou was also looking in their direction.
Seeing Xie Lingzhou, Yan Chuan became even angrier. Didn't they say that as long as he went to talk to Jiang Haochen, Jiang Haochen would consider it?
"Chi Yuan."
Hearing the voice, Chi Yuan turned around and met the gaze of the person who came in, and was also surprised: "President Cui."
The person who came was Cui Dong, the president of Tianyu. However, Chi Yuan had been with Tianyu for two years but was not familiar with Cui Dong. They had only met once or twice at the annual meeting, and occasionally they would nod and greet each other when they met at the company.
Cui Dong: "Come with me, I'll introduce you to a few people."
Although Chi Yuan was surprised, he naturally went since his boss had asked him to. After greeting the people around him, he followed Cui Dong to the front row.
Those seated there were some of the top directors and producers in the country, as well as some brand representatives who had been invited to attend.
In short, they are either big shots in the industry or powerful CEOs outside of it.
Cui Dongxian led Chi Yuan to a handsome man with phoenix eyes: "This is Shen Lian, the president of the Shen Group. This is Chi Yuan."
Chi Yuan didn't recognize him, but he took the initiative to extend his hand and greet him: "Hello, President Shen, I'm Chi Yuan."
Shen Lian looked Chi Yuan up and down, thinking to himself that it was no wonder Jiang Haochen liked him; he was indeed good-looking. Then he slowly extended his hand and shook hands with Chi Yuan: "Hello, I hope we can work together sometime."
Taking the opportunity, Cui Dong said, "I remember that the Shen family has a cosmetics brand that is looking for a spokesperson."
Shen Lian glanced at him and hummed in agreement.
Cui Dong smiled and nudged Chi Yuan, saying, "Aren't you going to thank President Shen?"
Chi Yuan stammered, "Thank you, President Shen."
Shen Lian hummed in agreement again, waited a while, and looked at Chi Yuan with surprise.
Unable to decipher the CEO's micro-expressions, Chi Yuan looked to his boss for help.
Cui Dong said irritably, "Are you stupid? Add me on WeChat, otherwise how can we cooperate?"
Chi Yuan then realized what was happening and quickly took out his phone to add the WeChat account. After adding the account, he was still completely bewildered.
Isn't this just polite talk? He's really endorsing her.
Not far away, Xie Lingzhou stared blankly at this scene, the fact he didn't want to believe was so nakedly displayed before his eyes.
Cui Dong and Shen Lian are Jiang Haochen's best friends.
He had been brought to these two people by Jiang Haochen in the same way before.
