    37. Opportunity

    At noon the next day, Gu Pan sat up from the bed with his head on his head and rubbed his eyes.

    After getting out of bed, she felt soreness in the muscles at the base of her thighs, which made Gu Pan sigh in frustration and irritation.

    Although Gao Yuan did not force her yesterday, in the end it was a state where you and I were happy and everyone was happy, but I also knew that she was the only one with sore muscles today.

    He went to the bathroom and cleaned himself up briefly. Since he didn’t receive a work call from Tang Yifei today, Gu Pan casually put on a T-shirt and lazily prepared to go shopping in the supermarket.

    The snacks at home have been eaten, and the refrigerator is empty. Gu Chengjue will be back at the weekend, and now it has reached the point where it is impossible to restock.

    Before going out, Gu Pan went into the kitchen, intending to throw away the expired food in the refrigerator. As soon as he walked in, he saw a plate on the dining table, with a few pieces of golden toast and a poached egg on it.

    The food exuded a simple and attractive aroma. Gu Pan immediately forgot all the thoughts in his heart and started eating happily.

    Although it was cold, it was still delicious.

    The eggs were not completely fried and the liquid yolk was retained. Only the simplest salt was used as seasoning, but it created Gu Pan’s favorite taste.

    After a hearty meal, Gu Pan went out humming a song. When he arrived at the supermarket, he was overwhelmed by the overwhelming Mid-Autumn Festival posters and products. He quickly picked up his phone and checked, only to find out that this Saturday was the Mid-Autumn Festival.

    Then I started to think about where to take Gu Chengjue to eat. Anyway, since there is an excuse for the festival, I must eat something good.

    After Gu Pan returned home carrying large and small bags, his cell phone suddenly rang. Gu Pan took it out and saw that it was He Zhizhou.

    “Xiao Panpan, are you free today?” The male voice from the receiver was warm and magnetic.

    “What’s the matter, Mr. He?” Because he had a good impression of He Zhizhou, Gu Pan answered readily, “I should have nothing to do today.”

    “I have something I want to ask you to help me with…” the man’s voice rose slightly. He leaned against the desk and lazily looked at the endless traffic outside the window. “A model friend of mine is shooting at the Huanyu headquarters this afternoon, but the makeup artist has temporarily taken sick leave. Can I trouble you?”

    Hearing Gu Pan on the other end of the phone agree without hesitation, the smile on He Zhizhou’s face deepened.

    After hanging up the phone, he immediately dialed another number.

    “Boss He, why do you even have to appoint a makeup artist now?” After the call was connected, a complaining male voice came immediately, “I finally came to Huanyu Headquarters, you will make people think that I am a big name.”

    “I believe you can handle these little things. You will know what to do this afternoon.”

    In the afternoon, Gu Pan came to the Huanyu Building according to the time given by He Zhizhou. She had only been in the industry for a short time and could not choose a high starting point. Most of the work was done in the studio, and a small part followed Li Chen to some small entertainment studios.

    This is her first time coming back to an entertainment company as big as Huanyu.

    Looking up, Gu Pan immediately retracted his head and entered the Huanyu Building.

    Gu Pan stood outside the door and repeatedly confirmed three times that the number of the lounge was correct before knocking on the door carefully. Then he heard a male voice coming from inside the door, “Please come in.”

    She pushed the door open and saw the man sitting in front of the dressing table.

    Seeing that face, Gu Pan remembered the man’s name. He was a well-known male model in the modeling circle, Zhang Mo.

    Zhang Mo also held his chin and looked Gu Pan up and down, then showed a polite smile, stood up and stretched out his hand to Gu Pan, “I’ll trouble you today.”

    It seems that Boss He has changed his taste…

    Gu Pan didn’t expect that the ‘model friend’ that He Zhizhou mentioned so lightly was actually Zhang Mo. He was so flattered that he froze on the spot for several seconds before he realized what he was doing. He rushed forward and held Zhang Mo’s hand.

    “Pfft.” Zhang Mo was amused by Gu Pan’s silly reaction, “Don’t be so nervous when you put on my makeup later. I won’t let you go if you make me look ugly.”

    “I, I will definitely work hard.” Gu Pan’s face turned red immediately. She had never met a model of Zhang Mo’s level before, and she was so nervous that her fingers were trembling.

    Following He Zhizhou’s instructions, Zhang Mo had no intention of embarrassing Gu Pan, but he just looked at Gu Pan’s nervous look and made a casual joke.

    Zhang Mo came today to shoot a magazine cover. The clothes and accessories had already been ordered. Gu Pan came early and kept looking at Zhang Mo’s face, mentally planning what kind of makeup he would give him later.

    To be honest, Zhang Mo’s face is not handsome, at most delicate. He does need some makeup skills to cover up the shortcomings of his facial features.

    After changing his clothes, Zhang Mo sat in front of the makeup mirror. He actually didn’t have much hope for the results of today’s makeup. After all, this little makeup artist was just a relationship with Boss He for him, and he was just a favor.

    Zhang Mo had even found a way out – asking his royal makeup artist to wait in the studio to save his damaged face.

    But when Zhang Mo opened his eyes and looked in the mirror again, probably because his previous expectations were too low, he was actually a little surprised by his own face.

    It turns out that the shortcomings of Zhang Mo’s facial features are that the bridge of his nose is not straight enough, and his mandible is slightly wide. As long as he does not pay attention to cover up these two points, his face will easily turn into a visually flat pie in front of the camera.

    But this little makeup artist has obviously thought carefully about it. The highlights and shadows are perfect, completely covering up the shortcomings of he’s facial features. He even chose eye shadows with very harmonious tones to match the overall look…

    Although these are all abilities that a makeup artist should have, it has to be admitted that Zhang Mo did underestimate Gu Pan at the beginning, and now he is in a state of unexpected joy.

    “If you have any opinions, I can change it again…” Gu Pan couldn’t help but rub his fingers with some anxiety when he saw Zhang Mo kept looking at the mirror and not saying anything.

    “…No.” Zhang Mo showed his first sincere smile since Gu Pan came in, “What’s your name? Which studio are you in now?”

    When Gu Pan saw that Zhang Mo seemed quite satisfied, his heart that had been hanging around was mostly relieved, “My name is Gu Pan… I don’t have a studio at the moment.”

    “You don’t have a studio?” Zhang Mo walked out while holding his cell phone, “Are you planning to set up a studio of your own or…?”

    Set up a studio of your own…

    Gu Pan followed Zhang Mo, chewing Zhang Mo’s words in his mind, and then shook his head, “I resigned before, but I haven’t found the right one yet.”

    “That’s it.” Zhang Mo nodded and said nothing more.

    The dressing room was only a few steps away from the studio, and within a few words it was already there. Seeing Zhang Mo coming, the shooting director immediately came up to him. Gu Pan didn’t dare to disturb them, so he hid aside secretly.

    Gu Pan has never served a front-line model like Zhang Mo, but the process is still clear. During the shooting process, the makeup artist must stand by and prepare to touch up the model’s makeup.

    The filming was going on, and there was nothing to worry about for the time being, so Gu Pan just stayed in a daze for a while.

    My own studio…

    Everyone has fantasies about the future when they are young. Gu Pan once fantasized about opening an image design studio of his own when he first joined Dra. He did not seek to be the best in the country, but at least wanted her to have a small foothold in this industry.

    The decoration is simple and modern, and the large floor-to-ceiling windows are bright and clean. The staff inside are the same as she is now, with longing for the future and hard work…

    How nice.

    Gu Pan had not thought about this matter for a long time, and now she suddenly went through it again in her mind. Just doing this made her laugh unconsciously.

    “Sorry to bother you.” A female voice came from the direction of the door. Gu Pan looked up and saw a woman wearing a black professional suit standing not far away, “Oh, Zhang Mo, are you filming here?”

    Zhang Mo obviously knew that woman, and his expression immediately broke away from the filming state and became warm, “Isn’t this Sister Song? Why, are you here to visit my class?”

    “Go, who’s visiting your class? I’m in some trouble. I just happened to meet you. Where is Xiao Wang?” Sister Song said, looking around the scene, and her eyes fell on the only girl carrying a makeup bag. “Hey, have you changed your makeup artist?”

    Gu Pan stood there. She didn’t know who Sister Song was or what Sister Song wanted to do. She saw Zhang Mo following Sister Song’s gaze and looking at her. “You see, the makeup on my face was painted by her. Is it okay? But I can only lend you one hour, otherwise no one will touch up my makeup.”

    “As expected of Zhang Mo, you guessed right away that I was here to borrow a makeup artist.” Sister Song said jokingly, but her eyes carefully looked at Zhang Mo’s face.

    Zhang Mo waved to Gu Pan, who immediately walked over.

    “Okay, okay, don’t look, you can see through my face.” Zhang Mo smiled and pushed Gu Pan’s back, taking her two steps towards Sister Song, “The makeup artists at Huanyu are all busy today, just take pity on them. Anyway, your guy looks good no matter what he does.”

    Sister Song pursed her lips and smiled, acquiescing to Zhang Mo’s words, “I really can’t stand Xiao Zhang, so I told her to eat less of those messy things. I got viral dysentery today, ugh…”

    “Come on, come on, stop complaining about Xiao Zhang and go quickly. Your time is precious.” Zhang Mo glanced at Gu Pan while speaking and told her with his eyes, ‘Come on’.

    Gu Pan immediately nodded obediently and couldn’t help but grab the strap of the cosmetic bag. He knew in his heart that Zhang Mo was giving her a chance, “Thank you…”

    “You’re welcome.” Who told Boss He to tell him that he must take good care of you.

    Zhang Mo raised his chin in the direction of the door, signaling Gu Pan to follow him quickly, “Go ahead and talk about it when you come back later.”

    Following Sister Song up two more floors, Sister Song gave Gu Pan a lot of instructions while walking with her on the road. Gu Pan’s head was almost spinning as he wondered what kind of monster this difficult customer was.

    But when Sister Song opened the door to the lounge, she took a quick look and saw only a young man in a light pink shirt, curled up on the makeup chair with his knees in his arms and his eyes closed to meditate.

    He’s skin was so white that it looked like he was carved out of white jade. From the small section of his arm exposed through the wide cuffs, you could faintly see the cyan blood vessels swirling under the skin.

    Hearing the slight sound of the door being opened, the young man opened his eyes, his eyelashes fluttering like the trembling of butterfly wings. The moment Gu Pan met those blue eyes, he felt a gust of salty sea breeze blowing past him.

    Bai…Bai Xu!?
