Chapter 92: Chapter 92: Human Faces and Peach Blossoms Reflecting in Red

Early in the morning, He Jinxia arrived at the new Aishang branch opened in Imperial City, and quickly changed into the clothes provided by Aishang for today’s event.

The clothes fit well and were also very warm, just as Aishang’s advertisement on W blog claimed the day before, today she wore a red and black plaid wool sweater and woolen skirt.

There was no need to wear thermals to keep warm; the woolen skirt went down to her calves, and all she needed was a pair of flesh-colored stockings as a base. The midi skirt design highlighted the curves of He Jinxia’s lower body, the protrusion wasn’t visible from the front, but it was definitely very lifted from the back.

On her feet, she wore white boots lined with wool, which made one feel warm down to their toes.

The upper body attire was simple, a black long-sleeve cotton shirt as a base layer, topped with a white wool vest, making He Jinxia look like a student studying in the US, with a pure and clean aura.

Aishang even prepared a shawl with red and black plaid elements for her, so if it suddenly started snowing outside, she could put on the shawl and sit in the audience with a beret on her head.

When He Jinxia saw these outfits, she suddenly found herself looking forward to the snow in the afternoon.

As a celebrity, being able to wear such warm clothes in the harsh winter was nothing short of bliss!

Half an hour was spent getting the outfit ready, followed by another half hour of the camera continuously shooting He Jinxia. Based on the feedback from the camera, Aishang’s stylist kept making adjustments to the details of the clothes.

That seemingly inconspicuous brooch might be the highlight of the outfit, and that eye-catching belt, perhaps too cumbersome under the camera, had to be removed...

The attitude of Aishang towards He Jinxia’s participation in the ribbon-cutting event was evident just by looking at the way their stylists treated He Jinxia, and others could guess from that.

Luo You and Tony exchanged glances as the stylists adjusted the clothes and nodded to each other silently.

With the clothes out of the way, it was time to address makeup and hairstyle, which involved communication and negotiations between Tony and the stylists.

Tony was well-known in the industry, and Aishang’s stylist had heard of him and was more than happy to let Tony do He Jinxia’s makeup. After all, he was her exclusive makeup artist and a familiar hand could work more cooperatively than a stranger.

"Our theme is ’a face as radiant as peach blossoms,’ and the main color theme of the new store’s clothing leans towards the girlish pink, so we want to give He Jinxia a peach blossom makeup look," said Aishang’s stylist.

Tony, ever professional in his own line of work, said crisply, "Okay, there are many kinds of peach blossom makeup, you must have already picked out a few for her, show them to me and talk about your top choice."

After discussing for a while, they quickly settled on the hairstyle and makeup. Aishang’s stylist helped with He Jinxia’s hair, while Tony took care of the makeup.

Makeup was a tedious process, she had to stay still to avoid getting powder in her eyes, meaning she had to keep them closed, and the procedure could take several hours. When it was finally done, fearing that the makeup would be ruined, she couldn’t even eat when she was hungry.

The two stylists worked diligently on He Jinxia’s styling, and the morning passed in a flash. When lunchtime came, everyone took a break.

Cheng Xiaohua took the nutrition meal specially customized by Aishang for He Jinxia, allowing He Jinxia to simply open her mouth as she fed her the food.

He Jinxia controlled her chewing motions, swallowing the food with as small movements as possible.

This was the first time she found something even more uncomfortable than drinking Xiao Tiantian’s special Slimming Juice; this way of eating was truly too suffocating!

Cheng Xiaohua quietly reminded her, "Jinxia, eat slowly, elegantly, don’t ruin the makeup on your face."

He Jinxia snapped back to reality, daring not to nod her head and simply blinked at Cheng Xiaohua to indicate she understood, and continued to chew and swallow her food slowly.

Cheng Xiaohua was somewhat dazed by He Jinxia’s wink just now, her heart pounding abruptly, and she hastily lowered her head to dig into her food with her spoon to disguise her embarrassment.

Peach blossom makeup, peach blossom eyes... He Jinxia’s phoenix eyes were accentuated by this makeup... utterly captivating!

Too much, not even sparing the same sex!

There is a kind of beauty that transcends gender between men and women, a beauty that takes one’s breath away at just a glance. Without a doubt, the meticulously dressed He Jinxia was exactly in such a state.

"Sister Xiao Hua?" He Jinxia, unable to wait any longer for her food, said softly and gently.

Cheng Xiaohua quickly snapped back to reality and carefully fed her a mouthful of food.

After finishing his meal, Luo You came over to take a look and noticed that He Jinxia had barely touched her packed lunch. He couldn’t help but pat her on the shoulder, expressing his profound sympathy, "Tough job, Comrade He Jinxia."

He Jinxia gave him a sidelong glance, not saying a word.

If Luo You’s face hadn’t been so obviously amused, she would have felt the sincerity in his words, thank you.

Ultimately, the meal was left unfinished.

Halfway through the meal, when time was up, Tony came over, applied lipstick to her lips with a serious expression, adding the final touch to her makeup. He whispered some instructions to her, and He Jinxia was pushed out for the ribbon-cutting ceremony.

Stepping in white boots, she pushed open the door and was greeted first by a vast white world—He Jinxia was slightly startled. It had started snowing.

The next second, a wave of screams surged past her ear, causing her heart to suddenly leap in her chest—

"He Jinxia! I love you, Fat Emperor! Ah, Jinxia..."

The noisy clamor was like a heatwave in summer, instantly enveloping her, dispelling the harsh cold.

He Jinxia steadied her mind and glanced at the fans who had specifically come for her, their faces ablaze with fervor, eyes sparkling, excitedly shouting her name while waving her support items—

A shiny golden "Fat" character.

Aside from an accidental exposure in the hotel last time, today was her first time so directly facing her fans. He Jinxia couldn’t quite pinpoint her feelings—there was unfamiliarity, heaviness, and also excitement.

She quickly regained her composure, a suitable smile appearing on her face, walking forward with her head held high and chest out in a dignified and graceful manner, occasionally waving with her gloved hands.

This gesture not only made the Timekeepers scream incessantly, but it also affected people who had come especially to shop at Aishang’s new store opening, prompting them to join in shouting He Jinxia’s name.

He Jinxia walked to the center of the red stage and began to interact with the host.

The host was a woman, also dressed warmly and slightly plump, saying with a merry smile:

"Jinxia, it’s an honor to have you here today to participate in the ribbon-cutting ceremony for Aishang’s new store. I’ve seen the photos of your successful slimming, but now that I see you in person, I find you even more beautiful than in the pictures!"
