Chapter 975: Xiao Chong Extra Chapter 38_2
Fortunately, she naturally had thick eyebrows and big eyes, with dense eyelashes. She wouldn’t look bad without eyeliner. She just casually applied some easy-to-use nude eyeshadow on her eyelids.
With a good base, even just a casual makeup and changing into the long gown prepared by the organizer gave a dressed-up feeling.
As for the hairstyle, it was simple too; a half-up princess style was enough. Yan Yufei was skilled in this area, so after finishing herself, she casually helped Lin Wanwan tidy up, and it was done.
"Wow, Wanwan, you’re so beautiful!" Yan Yufei exclaimed with admiration, looking at the well-dressed Lin Wanwan.
"You’re just as good-looking! Stop teasing me." Lin Wanwan reciprocated with some friendly compliments between the two.
Yan Yufei indeed was a beauty, second only to Lin Wanwan in their dorm; she was 1.66 meters tall, just one centimeter shorter than Lin Wanwan.
Their dorm, having been together for just over a month since the semester began, was already known as the most beautiful dorm in the history of the Chinese department.
Once the two were ready, they carried a bag with their casual clothes into the backstage of the event, tucked the bag under a table in a corner, and went out to find their place on duty.
Today’s brand promotion event had quite a few celebrities, like spokespersons, ambassadors, brand promoters - Lin Wanwan didn’t really understand.
First, she was responsible for guiding the celebrities to sign on the signature board along the red carpet; next, she stood by the stage, serving as the facade while the celebrities and hosts interacted with the fans; finally, she led everyone into the brand cocktail party.
Then they could enjoy a free buffet dinner at the cocktail party, and if prepared enough, one might even ask for photos and autographs from the celebrities.
None of these celebrities were familiar to Lin Wanwan. During her three years in high school, she hardly had time to follow TV and movies, only those truly popular celebrities were recognizable to her.
So throughout the event, she remained calm, except for the tiredness from standing in high heels and the cold when wearing a gown at the end of October (with warmth stickers), everything else was fine; the 500 yuan was definitely easy money.
When it was cocktail party time, after guiding the invited guests and celebrities into the venue, Lin Wanwan and Yan Yufei took a plate and went inside to find food.
She wasn’t interested in drinking, even though the drinks were probably good, but it’s better not to drink when working.
She mainly picked various small cakes and snacks to eat.
All the delicacies here were divided into small portions for easy consumption, including macarons and such.
Lin Wanwan ate several pieces of big-brand cakes, feeling that just eating this buffet dinner was worth a few hundred yuan.
During this process, she also encountered several unwanted advances.
Lin Wanwan had always been a beauty since childhood; those with strong intentions could be distinguished by her sixth sense, so she politely declined, saying she didn’t have her phone.
There were also some who just handed over business cards, to which Lin Wanwan smiled and accepted, only to throw them away afterwards.
Among them was a man appearing to be around forty, with a receding hairline and a broad belly, who kept pestering her with his not-so-standard Hong Kong Mandarin.
He kept talking about offering Lin Wanwan a contract, guaranteeing she would debut and so on.
Feeling annoyed, Lin Wanwan quickly greeted Yan Yufei and hid in the restroom.
After a while, Yan Yufei came over.
"Wanwan, I brought our clothes, you can change and we can leave."
"Don’t we have to wait until the event ends?" Lin Wanwan glanced at the electronic clock; it was only 8:15.
"No need, there’s nothing more for us, we can leave early."
"Alright."
Yan Yufei casually took off her gown and changed into casual clothes by the restroom sink, making Lin Wanwan blush.
She couldn’t bear such brazenness, so she took the bag with clothes into a restroom stall to change.
After changing, Yan Yufei laughed and said, "You Southern people really are... even after bathing together, you still hide to change clothes. Heh, come with me to the bathhouse in the future, after bathing together twice, you’ll be more open."
"Forget it, I don’t like it." Lin Wanwan blushed, knowing that the bathing together referred to their military training days.
Back then they had to finish bathing and changing in 15 minutes, the public bath was chaotic, and Lin Wanwan still recalled it with discomfort.
"By the way, Wanwan, I’m not going back tonight. I’ll give our clothes to the organizers, you can head off first." Yan Yufei folded the gowns they changed out of and put them in a bag.
