Yuki was a hot actor in the entertainment circle even though she was not so famous as Shirley and she had never been treated by a director like this.

They didn’t work together before, so it was hard for her to believe that director Zhang was such a ruthless and straightforward man. He should tell his actor face to face that you’d better keep quiet because you are my second choice.

Sam turned around and left, leaving Yuki in freeze.

The deputy director had been partners with Sam for many times, so he knew what he was, went up to comfort, "Yuki, director Zhang is not good at talking, just forget it. You’re the focus now; If you get angry and are captured by paparazzi, criticism would come swiftly. Isn’t it? "

They were complementary in temperament, no wonder they had been cooperating for so many years. One to play a tiger, the other to give candy. Good teamwork!

Before Yuki could answer, the deputy director shouted to us, "Get to work now and go back to the dressing room to try on your makeup. Today, we need to take photos in costume! "

Fine, I didn’t want to argue with Yuki in public, so walked towards the dressing room.

To think Jeffery should catch up, asked, "Your name is Mary Yang, right?"

I nodded, trying not to look too flustered.

"So, you are the Female II in this play! We’ll have a lot of cooperation!” He said with a smile.

Think of his standing out when Yuki was trying to embarrass me, I really appreciate his help. So, with an attitude as a new comer of this industry, I said, "Right! I don’t have much experience. It’s my honor to learn from Mr. Jiang! "

He quickly waved his hand. "You’re welcome! Just call me Jeffery! "

I nodded and asked politely, "Where do you make up, Jeffrey?"

"Me?" Jeffrey smiled and said, "My dressing room is next to yours. Welcome to visit."

I realized leading actors had their own private dressing room. It seemed that I had forgotten how Shirley was treated as I was used to my new identity. Jeffrey is hero in Xiao Feng Cuo, so he surely has his own dressing room!

At this time, a pretty girl came out and said, "Hello, Miss Yang. My name is Sophia Xie. I’m your dresser. Shall we begin now?"

I nodded to Jeffrey, saying I had to go.

"Hello, Sophia Xie, may I call you Sophia?" I asked politely. "Sure, Mary! "

I smiled. "OK! Thanks to do makeup for me! "

"Dear, your got perfect skin! Director Zhang specially told me the makeup shouldn’t be too modern. I was afraid to work for a star with bad skin because she won’t look great after using too many cosmetics.

Of course, I’m ten years younger! How nice to be young!

"Mary, let’s try the first set of make-up. After taking photos, I’ll give you the second." Sophia explained as she worked.

Since female II had two characters, according to makeup we could clearly see the changes of her love, hatred and personality. That was why we could easily tell the role was good or bad. Acting skill decided it, of course, but make-up also helped.

The director had told her about the character and requirements of the makeup, so Sophia did it quickly; one hour later, she finished the makeup. The design of hair style was also plain, no complicated makeup, no heavy headdresses, unlike those in the palace drama.

In the past, I didn’t like palace drama for I had to wear a hairnet every day and I was roasting when shooting in summer. Sweating, still had to wear thick clothes, touch-up every scene… I hate it!

Put on the costumes—a bright yellow gauze dress, cute, elegant and graceful, plus the makeup carefully designed by Sophia, I felt closer to the role itself.

As there were higher requirements in hero and heroine’s make-up, they were not ready yet after we got prepared. I went to the director; Sam looked around me stroked his chin with few beards, praising: "mm-hmm, this is Daisy! A Daisy in reality!" Daisy was the name of female II. It seems that he was satisfied with me.

It was time to take photos, the director looked around, and went up to tell the photographer, "You should make it fresher and brighter; the light is not enough..." The director was so dedicated that I admired him more.

The shooting of the first set of photos went well. After that, it’s time for hero and heroine, so I had a meal and prepared to wear the second set of make-up.

Like all the villains in ancient costume drama, the makeup looked brighter and stronger; with upward eyebrows and eyes, aggressiveness came over.

But as for the clothing, they didn’t choose dark color as usual, but the gorgeous wine red, which confused me.

When I tried on the clothes, all my confusions faded away. The clothes and makeup were in perfect match, conveying that this role was both good and evil.

I was about to take my photos when the deputy director came over and said, "Mary, Yuki is in a hurry today, can you take photos with her first?"
