    87. Rescue

    A few mornings later, Gu Pan was woken up by a phone call.

    The caller was Cheng Shuang, a senior at Gu Pan University. They had different majors but met in the same club. After graduation, Cheng Shuang worked as a media person and was usually responsible for writing some interviews.

    While Gu Pan was still in a daze, Cheng Shuang’s tone did not mean to reminisce about the past, “Wake up, now only you can save me!”

    “?” Gu Pan’s head was full of questions and he grabbed a handful of the disheveled hair on his head, “What?”

    “So didn’t you listen to what I said just now?” Cheng Shuang was so anxious that she almost jumped up, “It’s a super important interview, and the makeup artist slipped up! The female host’s face! It’s urgent!”

    “…Okay, okay.” The senior sister was still so concise and concise after not seeing her for so long, “Then the address…”

    Before she could even say the word ‘what’ on her lips, Cheng Shuang immediately stopped her and said, “I’ll send it to you now! Come over right away! The interview is at nine o’clock! We can’t afford to waste even a minute!”

    Gu Pan had already gotten out of bed, “I know, I know.”

    I glanced at the time, it was five minutes past seven.

    Gu Pan hasn’t gotten up at such a time for a long time.

    She randomly found a warm velvet sweater, put on a pair of jeans, and went out. She didn’t even have time to put on makeup, so she picked up her makeup bag and went out.

    It was too early to catch up with the morning rush hour, so Gu Pan easily took a taxi. After getting in the car, he opened the address Cheng Shuang sent.

    After giving the address, Gu Pan realized something was wrong. Usually interviews were conducted at a TV station, but the address Cheng Shuang sent was in a university town.

    Although I felt a little strange, Gu Pan was relieved after thinking that it might be a street interview.

    When they arrived at the university town, Gu Pan saw the TV station’s car at the school gate. Cheng Shuang was waiting for Gu Pan at the school gate. As soon as she saw Gu Pan getting out of the taxi, she rushed over to pay the fare, then pulled Gu Pan and ran inside.

    Gu Pan was pulled into the backstage of the school’s auditorium by Cheng Shuang. The dressing room used by many people was now empty, with only a woman and a few staff standing inside.

    The woman Gu Pan knew was the popular female host Lu Man.

    When Lu Man saw Cheng Shuang dragging Gu Pan in, she smiled politely at Gu Pan and said, “I’ll trouble you today. Make sure you make me look pretty.”

    The woman’s voice is delicate but not charming, and her enunciation is clear and her words are precise. Even if you don’t look at that beautiful face, just listening to her voice is already a pleasure.

    Gu Pan nodded quickly, “I will try my best.”

    “Cheng Shuang, this person you brought seems to be a newcomer. He hasn’t graduated from college yet?” The staff member who was adjusting the recording equipment raised his head and glanced at Gu Pan, then looked at Cheng Shuang teasingly.

    “Nonsense, this is my junior schoolmate who has graduated two years ago and is very reliable.” Cheng Shuang said and patted Gu Pan’s arm, indicating that they could start.

    Lu Man’s skin was fairly fair, but he could tell that his work and rest were unstable. His lack of energy and blood inevitably made his face look thin. While Gu Pan was applying isolation to Lu Man, he was thinking about how to highlight Lu Man’s advantages later. Then he heard Lu Man say in a low voice: “Are you a newcomer? Do you have no experience?”

    Gu Pan continued to move his hands and whispered, “I have been in the industry for two years and I am not considered a newcomer. I will do my best.”

    “Seriously.” Lu Man suddenly grabbed Gu Pan’s wrist, interrupted Gu Pan’s movements, opened his eyes and looked at Gu Pan steadily, “Today is really important to me. You must use all your skills to perform according to the standards of the dinner party.”

    “But…for the interview…” Isn’t the evening makeup a bit…

    Lu Man should know this better than she.

    “Just listen to me.” Lu Man saw Gu Pan’s hesitation, and the smile on his face faded slightly, looking a little unhappy, “Anyway, it must be beautiful, the most beautiful kind, you know?”

    Under Lu Man’s intense look, Gu Pan could only nod in agreement.

    In fact, Lu Man was pretty enough and had a good foundation. Gu Pan originally thought that the interview would not require exaggerated makeup. As long as the advantages of her facial features were emphasized, her entire face would be outstanding.

    But since She herself requested this, Gu Pan had no choice but to comply and put on Lu Man’s dinner makeup.

    After putting on makeup, Lu Man looked at her face, which seemed quite satisfactory. She looked at Gu Pan with a more friendly look, “The effect is not bad, thank you.”

    Gu Pan, who finally breathed a sigh of relief, immediately approached Cheng Shuang, “Who will we be interviewing in this auditorium today? Lu Man said that today is particularly important. Are there any activities?”

    With Gu Pan’s poor imagination, he could only think of activities similar to school celebrations in this place.

    “It’s not about the event.” Cheng Shuang was still holding her notebook and making final checks on the interview transcript. She answered Gu Pan’s question in a nonchalant tone, “The important thing is the person being interviewed.”

    “Human?” Gu Pan thought for a moment, “University professor? Principal? Student?”

    Cheng Shuang rolled her eyes and said, “It’s been two years since you graduated, but you still have so little information!” She said with a hint of resentment, “Didn’t you see Lu Man’s attitude just now? The entire entertainment industry knows who Lu Man likes.”

    In fact, this can’t be blamed on Gu Pan. She is in such a profession. Every time I see an interview, those words are just replayed in my mind. What really leaves an impression is the part about appearance and outfit.

    “You must be a fool, right?” Cheng Shuang looked at Gu Pan speechlessly, “Lu Man’s ideal type is…”

    “Mr. Xu!”

    Before Cheng Shuang finished speaking, Lu Man’s sweet voice came from the other end of the dressing room.

    Gu Pan immediately looked in the direction of the door.

    I saw that the man was still wearing a snow-white shirt today, with every button neatly attached, and a pure black jacket. It was a classic yet distant look. Even the silver-rimmed glasses on the tall bridge of his nose exuded a slight cold light.

    Now Gu Pan finally knew who Lu Man’s ideal type was.

    Facing the carefully dressed Lu Man, Xu Jingtang just nodded to her as a greeting, the expression on his face did not change at all, and then looked directly in the direction of Cheng Shuang, “I have read the interview transcript, is there anything else that needs to be revised?”

    “Well, I made a few changes, look here.” Cheng Shuang immediately got into work mode, holding his notebook and talking to Xu Jingtang.

    It wasn’t until Xu Jingtang raised his head from his work that he caught a glimpse of Gu Pan beside him.

    Compared to last time at the hotel, Gu Pan today looked as slovenly as five streets away. His hair was as unkempt as a lion with fried hair, his face was so plain that he didn’t even have time to apply skin care products, he was dressed like a high school student, and even the shoes on his feet were sneakers.

    However, Xu Jingtang still recognized she at a glance, “Miss Gu also participated in this column?”

    “No, Mr. Xu.” Gu Pan was about to speak, but Lu Man beat him to it, “Because the makeup artist had something unexpected happen this morning, so Miss Gu was asked to help temporarily.”

    Xu Jingtang nodded when he heard this and didn’t ask any more questions.

    Due to time constraints, the interview had to start as soon as possible, but as soon as the lights were turned on, the on-site director had a problem. Although Xu Jingtang’s sitting position was already a good-looking picture without any modification at all, the key was that he was in the same frame as Lu Man. Lu Man’s carefully crafted makeup suddenly seemed unnatural.

    It was naturally unrealistic to ask Lu Man to remove her makeup and repaint it, so the director could only pin his hopes on Xu Jingtang, “Mr. Xu, um… could you please ask our makeup artist to do a little bit of makeup… It feels a little inconsistent when you shoot the scene like this.”

    Lu Man didn’t feel embarrassed when he heard the director say this, but just glanced at Gu Pan enviously.

    Gu Pan saw that the others seemed unaware of Xu Jingtang’s mysophobia, so he moved closer to Xu Jingtang and lowered his voice: “Um…Mr. Xu, how about I go outside to find a pair of gloves?”

    The situation is pressing, and it must be resolved if it doesn’t change.

    Xu Jingtang glanced at Gu Pan lightly, and Gu Pan immediately felt that Mr. Xu was indeed a little unhappy.

    “No need.” The man took off his glasses and leaned on the back of the chair, pinching his eyebrows. In his mind, he had already put this column and the TV station on the blacklist that permanently refused to interact with him. “Let’s just change it like this.”
