Chapter 1236: Chapter 1236: Born Singer (Part 16)
Chuzheng led the people to the photography studio and had the staff take them to prepare first.
When she returned, she found quite a few people in the makeup room.
Sheng Yan and the others were surrounded in the middle, with a haughty woman standing opposite: “Our Sister Bai is using this makeup room first. Be wise and get out quickly.”
The surrounding staff were obviously intimidated by this Sister Bai and didn’t make a sound.
Chuzheng stepped through the crowd.
“Boss.”
Mu Sheng immediately called out.
Chuzheng glanced over the woman and landed her eyes on Sheng Yan. Seeing he was fine, she asked calmly, “What’s going on?”
Mu Sheng immediately replied, “We were doing makeup, and she suddenly came in saying she wanted to use this makeup room.”
This makeup room is quite spacious. Normally everyone could use it together, but this so-called Sister Bai insisted on using it alone and forced them out.
“You’re their boss?” The woman gave Chuzheng a disdainful look: “Our Sister Bai is in a hurry, so this makeup room is ours for now. You can wait outside.”
Chuzheng took a few steps forward, shielding Sheng Yan and the others behind her.
“Who’s your Sister Bai?”
“You don’t know Sister Bai?” The woman was exaggeratedly surprised.
Chuzheng’s face was cold, with a chill emanating from her body: “Who?” There are plenty of people with the last name Bai. How would I know who you’re talking about!
Facing Chuzheng’s gaze, the woman’s arm tingled with a cold sensation, feeling the opposing person’s imposing manner a bit overwhelming.
She involuntarily swallowed: “Bai Yaxuan.”
Whether it was Bai Yaxuan’s name that gave her strength or not, the woman suddenly became assertive again, raising her chin and looking down her nose at Chuzheng.
Chuzheng expressionlessly replied with three words: “Don’t know her.”
“…” The woman’s expression turned a bit ugly. There was actually someone who didn’t know Bai Yaxuan… Impossible, she must be doing it on purpose.
Chuzheng asked the staff nearby: “I booked this time, right?”
The staff looked at Bai Yaxuan’s assistant with difficulty, then at Chuzheng, and quietly explained: “Yes… Miss Bai was supposed to come tomorrow. We didn’t expect her to change the schedule suddenly…”
All other makeup rooms were occupied.
According to their schedule, such a conflict shouldn’t occur.
But Bai Yaxuan changed her schedule herself. She’s a big name, and they didn’t dare offend her.
Bai Yaxuan debuted only five years ago, with her first work being the lead actress for a renowned director, which made her instantly popular. Since then, she has been rising steadily. She recently won a prestigious Best Actress award.
Bai Yaxuan comes from an affluent family, with the typical arrogant and domineering attitude of a rich heiress. She was exposed for acting grandly and suppressing newcomers when she first became famous, yet she continued to get roles and receive endless advertising deals.
Those in the industry without her fame dared not offend her easily.
“Since I’m not mistaken, it’s your responsibility,” Chuzheng said coldly. “Now, please have this person leave.”
Why should I make way for this Bai person?
Doesn’t my big boss face matter?!
The staff was in a dilemma, wanting to advise Chuzheng to avoid the limelight, as offending Bai Yaxuan was unwise.
However, before they could speak, Bai Yaxuan’s assistant exploded first.
“What are you saying! Do you know how much one minute of Sister Bai’s time is worth?” Bai Yaxuan’s assistant’s voice was somewhat shrill, and shouting made it even more piercing.
Chuzheng casually asked, “How much?”
Bai Yaxuan’s assistant glared at Chuzheng, just about to speak when a crowd outside escorted a woman in.
The woman wore a flamboyant red dress, with large sunglasses covering most of her face, surrounded by people like a proud peacock, the arrogance of affluent origins and the aura of a star in full display.
Her entourage included assistants and bodyguards, giving the impression of some bigwig on the move.
The crowd voluntarily made way for her.
Her ten-centimeter high heels clicked on the floor, ‘click click’, the red dress swayed, and she reached up to hook her sunglasses down, holding them with one finger, and asked discontentedly, “Why are there so many people?”
“Sister Bai.” Her assistant rushed to Bai Yaxuan’s side: “This group won’t allow us to use the makeup room.”
Bai Yaxuan raised an eyebrow at Chuzheng. Upon making eye contact with Chuzheng, she was visibly surprised.
The person opposite was unbelievably good-looking…
An artist?
No…
If she were such a beautiful artist, how could Bai Yaxuan not have any impression?
Not an artist, Bai Yaxuan thought internally and became less concerned, impatiently saying, “Can’t you handle such a small matter? Why are you just standing there? Get them out, I’m rushing.”
The staff exchanged uncertain glances.
Chuzheng stood expressionless, her aura not weaker than Bai Yaxuan’s.
So no one moved.
The atmosphere grew awkward for no reason.
“What, you don’t want to shoot anymore?” Bai Yaxuan’s face turned cold.
Bai Yaxuan came today to shoot an advertisement, not something she wanted to take – the other party was eager to have her shoot it.
“Miss Bai, Miss Bai, please don’t get angry.” The person in charge arrived in time before Bai Yaxuan got upset: “Miss Bai, why did you come today…”
“I’ll come whenever I want.” Bai Yaxuan raised her chin: “Hurry up and fix this for me, I have to go to the airport afterwards.”
Bai Yaxuan was notoriously tyrannical in the industry, so the person in charge dared not provoke her.
Reluctantly, he approached Chuzheng to negotiate: “Miss Meng, how about we let Miss Bai use it first? I’ll give you a discount…”
“Do I look like I need money?”
“…”
The person in charge looked at Chuzheng’s attire, unable to discern any brand.
But she indeed paid without hesitation, not like someone short on cash.
The person in charge carefully chose his words: “Miss Meng, you see we’re all in the same circle, stepping back let’s resolve this peacefully…”
Implying not to mess with Bai Yaxuan.
“I’m not in the same circle with her.”
“???”
Not in the entertainment circle?
Anyway, no matter what was said, she refused to yield.
The person in charge had a headache and pulled a staff member aside: “Isn’t there another makeup room?”
“No, they’re all fully booked…”
The person in charge lowered his voice to roar: “Then find someone and get one freed up!”
Don’t they know how to use their brains?!
Implying – can’t they find an easy target to deal with!
“…Okay, okay.”
The staff immediately went out.
The person in charge promptly told Bai Yaxuan: “Miss Bai, I’ll prepare a new makeup room for you, and…”
“I want to use this one today.” Bai Yaxuan didn’t appreciate it, provocatively looking at Chuzheng: “Make her leave!”
“Why?” Chuzheng retorted: “Didn’t learn first come, first served?”
Bai Yaxuan sneered, saying nothing, just glaring at the person in charge, clearly not intending to leave.
The person in charge was stuck between a rock and a hard place.
[Sister, too much aggression! We’ve never lost when throwing money around – we must show them our might!]
Chuzheng: “??”
No, who’s throwing money around now?
Bastard, what kind of story are you adding to yourself?
[Main task: Please buy this photography studio, within two hours.]
Chuzheng: “…”
Wait!
I can leave!
I’ll deal with her once I’m out!
[Sister big boss’s prestige doesn’t matter anymore?]
[Sister, keep at it!]
