During the recording of the show the next day, the outfits of the other people remained unchanged. Only Xiang Yutang's outfit had changed.
Xiang Yutang was a bit unhappy and went to the director's team for an explanation. "Why did my little dress get changed into long pants?" She quite liked the dress she had been wearing.
The director gave a very official reason. "The dress is too short. It wouldn't be good if you have a wardrobe malfunction later."
"But many people's dresses are the same length as mine! There are even some shorter ones!" Xiang Yutang continued to question the director.
The director cleared his throat. "But you're the only one who's going to dance. If your dance movements are too big later, it'll have a bad influence. Well, if you're not satisfied with any of the outfits, I'll change them all."
Xiang Yutang snorted and turned away. Everyone was quite satisfied with their outfits this time. She shouldn't cause others to have their outfits changed just because of herself.
When she walked to a corner, she was suddenly pulled in. Xiang Yutang was already used to it. "How do you always manage to accurately predict where I'll pass by?"
Zhu Zhengchu flicked her forehead. "Because I know you well enough. Did something happen when you went to find the director?"
Xiang Yutang complained to him about the dress. "I really liked that little dress, but it got changed into this." Although these pants were also quite nice.
After hearing this, Zhu Zhengchu dropped a bombshell. "I'm the one who told them to change your outfit."
"Ah? Why?" Xiang Yutang was a bit incredulous.
Zhu Zhengchu lowered his head until their noses were almost touching. "Because when you wear a little dress, people can see your legs. I don't want others to see you like that."
Xiang Yutang's annoyance suddenly disappeared. "Are you jealous?"
"Otherwise?"
Zhu Zhengchu pinched her face. "You can wear dresses when you go out with me on normal days, but not on stage, unless it's a long dress. Otherwise, there are a lot of paparazzi in the audience. You don't know what parts of you they'll take pictures of." It's always been difficult to stop paparazzi from taking pictures up female celebrities' skirts. Zhu Zhengchu couldn't change other people, but he could change the person he liked.
Xiang Yutang was unusually obedient. "Got it!"
Zhu Zhengchu checked the time and said somewhat coaxingly. "You guys are about to gather for makeup. Can I get a little reward before you go?"
Xiang Yutang felt a bit awkward. "This..."
Zhu Zhengchu knew that she wasn't quite comfortable with such intimacy yet, so he pleaded in a low voice. "Can I just touch your lips? I promise it'll be just a touch."
"Okay." Xiang Yutang couldn't resist his pleading, and she thought this was still within her acceptable range.
Zhu Zhengchu lowered his head and touched her lips. "Good luck in the competition."
After some hesitation, Xiang Yutang still said傲娇ly. "You have to watch me more later. Don't keep looking at other girls." Although she was carefree, she would still get jealous if her boyfriend looked at other girls.
Zhu Zhengchu smiled. "Of course. Go ahead."
Xiang Yutang walked out of the corner first. Zhuo Ziyu happened to be looking for her.
"Hurry up. It's time for makeup."
"Got it!" Xiang Yutang trotted over.
It always took a long time to do makeup before going on stage. Even someone like Xiang Yutang, who had good looks, had to be smeared and painted on for an hour. Xiang Yutang didn't really like this feeling, but when she saw her makeup artist today, she was suddenly shocked.
"You're!"
The makeup artist was wearing a mask and a hat and made a shushing gesture at her.
She was Zhu Zhengchu's exclusive makeup artist. Xiang Yutang had met her last time. She was also sent by Zhu Zhengchu this time. But in order not to attract attention, she had deliberately covered herself up.
Xiang Yutang was also quite sensible and didn't continue to ask. She whispered. "Did he send you?"
"Otherwise?" The makeup artist took out her makeup bag. "These are all things that only Brother Zhu usually uses. No one else has ever used them. You can rest assured."
Xiang Yutang nodded, feeling a bit secretly happy.
Zhuo Ziyu glanced at the cosmetics on the table. She could tell at a glance that they were very expensive. They must be from Zhu Zhengchu's side.
Thinking like this, Zhuo Ziyu felt a bit better. Zhu Zhengchu was so attentive to Yutang. Maybe he was really serious.
Since the makeup artist was arranged by Zhu Zhengchu, Xiang Yutang was especially well - behaved today and wouldn't be as fidgety as usual.
This makeup artist was also very skilled. She could turn an ordinary person into a great beauty. For someone as beautiful as Xiang Yutang, she was directly transformed into a fairy.
"Okay." After applying the setting powder, the makeup artist put away her things and took out her phone. "Brother Zhu asked me to take a picture of you for him. Do you want to take a selfie or should I take it for you?"
Xiang Yutang thought for a while and reached out her hand. "I'll take a selfie!" It was better for her to find the right angle.
The makeup artist gave her the phone. "Go ahead, but hurry up."
Xiang Yutang took the phone and went behind the curtain to take a few pictures. In the past, she would just take a picture and be done with it. But now, after taking the pictures, she carefully selected one before sending it to Zhu Zhengchu.
"Thank you!"
The makeup artist took back the phone and smiled. "You're welcome. It's also my honor to do your makeup. Come on. I wish you good results."
"Thank you."
Zhuo Ziyu also finished her makeup at this time. Even though she had seen Xiang Yutang's face for more than ten years, she was still amazed by her makeup today. "Wow, baby, you look so good today!"
Xiang Yutang blushed. "Really? Will he also think I look good?!" She had been too embarrassed to wait for Zhu Zhengchu's reply and had returned the phone to the makeup artist. Now just thinking about it made her feel nervous. She didn't know if Zhu Zhengchu would like it.
Seeing that Xiang Yutang mentioned Zhu Zhengchu as soon as she opened her mouth, Zhuo Ziyu was even more worried. But this wasn't the time to talk about these things. She put her arm around Xiang Yutang's shoulder. "Of course he will. Tangtang is so beautiful."
When they got to the big dressing room, the girls who had already finished their makeup were all looking at their faces in the mirror. When they saw Xiang Yutang come in, some people gasped softly. "She's really so good - looking."
Hearing the praise from the trainees, Xiang Yutang was even more looking forward to Zhu Zhengchu seeing her.
"Okay, all the trainees, please note. Later, when we walk from here to the stage, we'll pass a short stretch of road. There may be fans taking pictures there. You don't need to deliberately hide. Just walk over gracefully. Try to show your best posture."
As soon as the director said this, everyone became even more serious about their makeup. Maybe a random picture taken by a paparazzi could change their status.
Xiang Yutang and Zhuo Ziyu didn't think too much about it. They even started playing a little game.
When they walked out of the dressing - room door, Xiang Yutang saw Zhu Zhengchu. Zhu Zhengchu's smiling eyes swept over everyone, and he said to them. "Everyone is a fairy descending to the mortal world today. You all have to perform well."
Although he was talking to everyone, the only person his eyes stopped on was Xiang Yutang.
