Chapter 263 - 251 uses Yan’s!
The woman’s face instantly showed a crack, looking quite embarrassed. "Is it that obvious? I did put on face cream this morning before coming out." Come to think of it, she had a point—her skin was indeed very dry, and even face cream couldn’t seem to salvage it.
"Yes, it’s quite obvious." Tian Sangsang nodded and said, "If you don’t focus on hydration and moisturizing with this type of skin, your complexion will look bad. Over time, you’ll even develop faint spots. By the time you’re twenty, you might look thirty."
The woman looked down in horror. Is it that serious? Why is this person so mean? Was she deliberately trying to provoke her?! A strong sense of crisis welled up inside her—she could get spots? Seriously? She was still relatively young, wasn’t she?
"But no worries!" Tian Sangsang smiled mysteriously.
The woman curiously watched as she slowly took a small bottle out of her basket, placed it next to her cheek, and said softly, "I have a product here that can solve this problem for you. This is the hereditary royal formula of our family—Yan’s Beauty. My ancestors even served the palace’s favored concubines, teaching them the secrets of staying youthful."
The woman let out a surprised "Wow."
"You’ve heard of Yang Guifei, right? ’A single horseback ride through red dust makes the concubine smile, but none know it’s Lychee that arrives.’ Why did Emperor Tang lose himself in Yuhuan’s charms? Not only because she was young, but also because she was beautiful and knew how to take care of herself."
Just mentioning ’favored concubine’ wasn’t convincing enough. Adding a historically famous one—Yang Yuhuan—makes the statement more credible. It stirred a ripple in the woman’s heart.
"And this moisturizer has both hydrating and whitening functions while nourishing your skin. It contains sorbitol, which is rich in highly effective hydrating agents and is a naturally hydrophilic formula. It preserves excellent hydration over a long period, creates a protective barrier, makes the skin translucent, soft, and radiant, and also helps absorb other nutrients. It’s free of preservatives, fragrances, alcohol, mineral oils, and such. Use this, and you’ll look ten years younger. For hydration, use Yan’s! For moisturizing, use Yan’s! For whitening, use Yan’s!"
The woman didn’t fully understand but couldn’t resist her persuasive tone. She hesitated, "Is it really that amazing? It’s not a scam, is it?"
Tian Sangsang grew red with indignation. "We’re doing honest business here! If it were a scam, how could we develop long-term? Don’t worry; this is absolutely genuine and absolutely trustworthy!"
"How much is a bottle?" Actually, the woman’s heart was already moved since, after all, looks matter. If a poorly dressed person with yellowish skin were introducing this to her, she wouldn’t even bother paying attention. Are you here to promote something? If your skin and taste are worse than mine, how could I trust the products you’re selling?
But Tian Sangsang was different. The woman had been secretly observing her for quite a while. She had radiant, glowing skin, carried a natural floral fragrance, and was dressed stylishly. A person like this—what she said had to be believable.
Tian Sangsang held out her hand and gestured, "Five yuan. I recommend pairing this moisturizer with the cleansing lotion for even better results."
"That’s a bit expensive," the woman tried to haggle. "The fragrant face cream on the market is cheaper than yours."
"How could it be expensive? Miss Beauty, this bottle lasts nearly a whole season. Five yuan well spent—it’s not a loss. Us women, we should spend money on taking care of ourselves. And besides, my moisturizer is far superior to that face cream. If you don’t believe me, give it a try." She opened the cap.
The woman sniffed. Just from the packaging and scent alone, it felt noticeably different from the face cream.
"But will it really work?" She still hesitated.
"Look at me! I use this myself, and it really works. Plus, Miss Beauty, you don’t know—I used to be very dark-skinned and was often ridiculed. But I took care of myself and became this fair-skinned over time. I primarily used essential oils to whiten my skin in the long term. Miss Beauty, if you have friends troubled with darker skin tones, you can refer them to me."
The woman gasped and immediately nodded, "Alright, I’ll buy it! I just hope it’s worth it!"
"Of course." Tian Sangsang smiled. "If you like it, come find me again. I’m Miss Tian."
Money exchanged hands, and the woman cautiously held the product as she walked away.
She successfully sold a bottle. Tian Sangsang felt confident and quickly found two more customers in front of the department store, as well as several more in front of the dance hall. The dance hall was an excellent spot to sell product after all. The cleansing lotion and moisturizer were selling nicely, but the essential oils hadn’t found any buyers yet.
While looking for more customers, Tian Sangsang wandered toward East Sea Film Academy. It was noon, and students were everywhere. Tian Sangsang carefully stored the 60 yuan she had just earned, peeled a chestnut, and chewed on it slowly. She pretended to take out a water bottle from her basket, which contained warm water, and took a sip.
How did she end up here near the college kids? College students typically don’t have much money. Wait a second... This is a film and media school—there should be quite a few wealthy ones here.
Watching the students brimming with youthful energy, Tian Sangsang began reminiscing about her own university days. Youth is truly wonderful; maybe she should enroll in a night school herself? That way, she wouldn’t always be criticized for lacking a strong academic background.
As she observed others, she didn’t realize she was also being observed. The students here were walking and stopping, most thinking she’d be a movie star.
"Is she one of our school’s students? She’s so beautiful."
"There’s something melancholic about her, it reminds me of a poem. Ah, you are the cloud, you are the..."
A fair-skinned and beautiful girl stood beneath a tree, holding a flower basket in one delicate hand. Like a mouse, she nibbled on something intermittently. Perhaps she was chewing on loneliness, for her gaze seemed distant—not savoring her snack, but her thoughts appeared to drift off to the horizon...
"I’ve already pulled some strings. The script is now under the television station’s name. The film studio has approved the script, so we can start preparations. But remember, we’re producing this movie ourselves, not for them, so they only provided twenty percent of the funding." Zhao Chun looked troubled, clearly holding contempt for the situation.
He had never sought help from his family before, but this time, pride forced him to request assistance from his grandfather. He suddenly realized nothing was as smooth as he had imagined.
"It’s alright, boss. We’ll figure out some money ourselves as crew members. Everyone really wants to make this movie happen."
If only the team could scrape together more funds—but no matter how much was scraped, it wouldn’t be enough.
Zhao Chun’s gaze deepened, and then his eyes flashed suddenly, "Tian Sangsang?"
"Where?" Yao Yu scanned around but didn’t see her. Instead, he spotted a stunning beauty, exquisitely gorgeous and dazzling, standing out in a crowd like a radiant beacon.
"What are you looking at?" Zhao Chun glanced at him, confused. "The palest one."
"Boss, you must be joking, right?" Yao Yu laughed heartily. "She’s not that color~"
