Chapter 473: No Makeup

Translator: Lonelytree

Ding Cheng was dumbfounded. We’re only starting? What were we doing on the way? That means my appearance in the pilot film won’t be high! When Ding Chen thought of that, he was angry. How could this happen?

“Why didn’t you tell us about this earlier? Why isn’t this written in the script?”

Hearing that, Zhu Huan burst into laughter. “Please don’t lump us with you. I think the director’s arrangement is not bad.”

Everyone turned to Ding Cheng again. He could feel hostility from all sides. Even Pan Huang was glaring at him. But the worse was the taunting gaze from Xu Lun. Ding Cheng did not even dare to meet the man’s eyes. The people around him weren’t friendly at all. 

People ignored him and some of the staff thought there was something wrong with the young man. How could someone like him be a celebrity?

They looked at Ding Chen with contempt. Mo Li, the youngest among them, did not have a single complaint even though she went through the same thing as Ding Cheng did. However, Ding Cheng nagged non-stop.

“Our show is about authenticity so there is a minimal script.” Director turned to Ding Cheng. He had no idea the standard of male idols had dropped so low. He didn’t know what to say.

In the evening, they followed the script and made self-introduction before making their beds. Everyone followed a strict schedule. After Xu Lun finished the night training, everyone returned to sleep.

The next morning, Ding Cheng, Bian Mei, and Zhu Huan were late.

Qian Tu was still smiling but Xu Lun’s face was dark.

“Why are you three so late? You’re in the army, not at a fashion show! Didn’t I say that no makeup is allowed!”

“Sir! This is not makeup, it’s just a thin layer of sunscreen!” Zhu Huan was embarrassed but she was a model. Her appearance was her most important asset. She couldn’t abide by bad skin. 

“And the three of you!” Xu Lun turned his questioning gaze to Mo Li’s group. He could see traces of makeup on their faces. Cheng Xiao sighed. She thought the soldier wouldn’t notice she had put on a very thin layer of makeup.

“Go and remove the makeup now! No one is putting on makeup in the army! Plus, you will sweat during training. If your makeup is absorbed by your skin, it’ll only worsen your skin condition.” Quan Tu sighed. In his mind, the girls were already beautiful, they didn’t need the makeup.

“I’ll only give you five minutes, go now!” Xu Lun roared at the four females.

Bian Mei was annoyed. She was a host so her skin condition wouldn’t be better than the rest… If she was forced to remove her makeup, it would reveal her flaws.

Cheng Xiao sighed. She turned to rest. “Let’s go then.”

Then Mo Li said, “I’m not wearing any makeup.”

Everyone turned to Mo Li in shock.

“Is that how a soldier talks?”

“Sir! I’m not wearing any makeup!”Mo Li looked at Xu Lun innocently. If Mo Li had the extra time, she would rest, why would she waste time on makeup? Plus they were already told to not use any makeup yesterday.

“Impossible!” Zhu Huan gasped in surprise. Even when she was 16, her skin was not as flawless as Mo Li’s!

“You’re… not wearing any makeup?” Cheng Xiao was stunned. Mo Li was very fair so it looked like she had put on foundation. Her brows were carved like they had been painted on. Her lips were ruby red so they didn’t believe she didn’t have on any makeup.

“You’re serious?” Xu Lun frowned. If that was true, then Mo Li was the prettiest person he had ever seen.

“Yes.” Mo Li wiped her cheeks. There was no trace at all.

Everyone present looked at Mo Li with envy and jealousy. They all wished that they had her skin, but one’s appearance was mostly determined by genetics.

The program team took a close-up of Mo Li. Indeed there was no trace of powder on her face.

The other three women immediately surrounded Mo Li to ask for her skincare routine. They wanted to know her skincare products. When Mo Li said she only used normal water, they were immensely shocked..
