Chapter 94 Trying the Waters
Since the makeup trial had been successful yesterday and the host was satisfied, there was no need for major changes today. All that was required was to add a hairstyle to the original makeup.
The room was crowded with girls shoving into a human wall, encircling Minmin and Gong Chenglan at the center. Watching the girl before them intently flick her fingers as if she was unlocking a new world right before their eyes.
Curious questions poured in like a stream. For a while, the room buzzed with chatter, and a few with quick tempers and loud voices dominated the conversation, nearly lifting the roof off.
Stimulated by the noise, Minmin’s scalp tingled. She said, "How about I do this while explaining to you guys? You can ask me questions quietly, and I’ll answer what I know, okay?"
Gong Chenglan simply bellowed out, "This racket is giving me a headache, whoever yells again, please leave."
Of course, her latter statement was said in jest, so everyone replied with laughter and considerately lowered their voices.
The girls had all sorts of bizarre questions.
Like: Can you really paint your eyes like that? Won’t it hurt them? If you apply this, can you go a few days without washing your face? What if you sweat? Wouldn’t it be better for me to earn a few more work points instead, don’t you think? Whether it looks good or not, isn’t it all the same once the lights are out and you’re in bed? What do you guys think?
Minmin knew that many people were still struggling with basic needs. As they said, who would care about looks when their stomachs aren’t even full yet? Despite the enthusiastic crowd in the room, the majority were just there out of curiosity and gossip. After all, there was a lack of entertainment at the time. A four-wheeled car passing through the village could draw the whole family out for a gawk, and such experiences and topics could be discussed for over half a month.
Minmin didn’t mind; she was mainly testing the waters.
