They want you to participate in a TV show, and you'll be doing a live stream as a security guar

Upon hearing this, Yang Mi's face darkened.

No woman likes being told she's old.

Gray hair has always been a synonym for aging, especially for female artists like her who live under the spotlight year-round and are extremely conscious of their image; it is something they are particularly averse to.

The atmosphere instantly became awkward. Ouyang Na'er, standing to the side, barely dared to breathe, suppressing her laughter.

The live stream chat was flooded with comments—

[Haha, Ye Shen really has a blunt tongue; he always says things that hit home.]

【Oh no, Sister Mi is going to be furious.】

[It's perfectly normal for a workaholic like her to have gray hair due to years of working long hours and high pressure.]

[Female celebrities are most afraid of being told they're old; this is awkward.]

Ye Zhou is all about honesty; he has absolutely no tact.

……

"Getting angry less often makes you more prone to wrinkles."

That wasn't the end of it; Ye Zhou's next words made Yang Mi's face darken even more.

Originally, he was only slightly bothered, but now he was rendered speechless by two blunt sentences in a row, and he felt a surge of anger in his chest, but he couldn't vent it.

After all, it's being broadcast live right now!

She couldn't afford to ruin her perfect image.

The next second, Ye Zhou added, "I see you have quite a few wrinkles on your face. You should take better care of yourself."

Upon hearing those words, Yang Mi froze completely, feeling an urge to kill the other person with a knife.

"I've always taken good care of my skin, but I've been too tired lately, so I've gotten a few more wrinkles."

After a few seconds of silence, she managed to suppress her anger and frustration, managing a forced, gentle smile.

"That's not right."

Before she could finish speaking, Ye Zhou lightly swept his gaze over her eyebrows and eyes, and mercilessly added insult to injury: "These lines on your face don't look like they just appeared recently. The wrinkles are deep, they've been there for a long time, it's obvious they've been there for a while."

Upon hearing this, the entire room fell into a deathly silence.

Ouyang Na'er covered her mouth, forcibly suppressing her laughter, and lowered her head slightly, not daring to look up at Yang Mi's expression.

The photographer stood frozen in place, looking at Ye Li with admiration.

The live stream chat exploded, with comments flooding the screen at an alarming rate.

[Hahaha, Ye Zhou is the best at killing someone by striking at their heart!]

[Help! Every sentence is a direct hit, Sister Mi is about to break down!]

[Oh no, Sister Mi is furious inside, but she has to pretend to be calm on the surface!]

The price of this workaholic is written all over her face and hair!

……

After being repeatedly attacked, Yang Mi could no longer maintain her composure, and a faint gloom settled over her delicate face.

"Do you know that sometimes you're really asking for a beating?"

She took a deep breath and said to Ye Zhou through gritted teeth.

"I don't know."

Ye Zhou's lips curled slightly upward, and he said calmly, "I'm just stating an objective fact. There's no need to be angry!"

"Besides, other people will only tell you nice-sounding lies to flatter you, but I'm different from them."

This confident reply made Yang Mi laugh in exasperation: "Then tell me, what other questions do I have?"

"Yes! Take your current makeup, for example..."

Ye Zhou's gaze fell on her face, and he spoke slowly.

"What's wrong?"

Yang Mi said confidently, "I was in a rush this morning, so I only did a quick ten-minute light makeup."

She was born beautiful with an excellent foundation, and even with light makeup or no makeup, her looks were still stunning.

"I see, no wonder it looks rough."

Ye Zhou glanced at it indifferently and bluntly said: "There are slight caking and powdering on your cheeks and nose, and your makeup is patchy and uneven, completely covering up your natural skin texture."

"I advise you to either not wear makeup next time, or not to be so careless."

Upon hearing this, Yang Mi subconsciously raised her hand and lightly touched her cheek.

Her makeup is always meticulously done by top makeup artists, resulting in a flawless and even finish, without any basic issues like caking or powder settling into fine lines.

I was in a rush today and had to put on makeup hastily. I thought it was just light makeup and wouldn't be a big deal, but I didn't expect Ye Zhou to see through all the flaws at a glance and point them out bluntly.

"I would never do my makeup so carelessly normally, I was just in a rush to leave today."

Yang Mi gritted her teeth, forcibly suppressing the embarrassment in her heart, and almost lost her elegant demeanor.

The live stream chat was going crazy with laughter, the screen was flooded with a dense, frantic barrage of messages—

[This is hilarious! Her makeup flaws were exposed on the spot, and Sister Mi was on the receiving end of the criticism.]

[As expected of Ye Zhou, you always target the points that female celebrities care about most and attack them relentlessly.]

[The top female celebrity was criticized from head to toe for the first time; it was so entertaining!]

[You can definitely tell that the makeup is very thin; the dryness and caking are impossible to hide, and the high-definition camera reveals everything.]

Everyone else is praising her natural beauty, but Ye Zhou is wildly realistic—it's too real.

……

In a short time, the live broadcast quickly gained immense popularity, thanks to the memorable scene of Yang Mi's surprise appearance at the barbershop and Ye Zhou's candid critique of her.

On one side is Yang Mi, a top national female star, and on the other side is Ye Zhou, who has been dominating the trending topics for years and has his own traffic and popularity. The impact of these two super popular figures appearing together is not as simple as one plus one equals two.

Related terms spread rapidly, soaring to the top of the trending search lists on major platforms in the blink of an eye, and the discussion across the internet exploded instantly.

Yang Mi glared at Ye Zhou through the mirror, who looked completely calm and oblivious to how hurtful she had been, feeling both angry and helpless.

After she became famous, everyone around her was careful to flatter and fawn over her. Stylists, makeup artists, and agents all said nice things. No one ever dared to point things out to her face like Ye Zhou did.

Unfortunately, everything the other person said was true, and she didn't even have the confidence to refute them.

"I didn't know you knew anything about makeup? You don't actually know how to do makeup, do you?"

After a while, Yang Mi raised an eyebrow, her gaze falling on him with a hint of curiosity and probing, and slowly spoke.

"I know a little bit," Ye Zhou said with a slight smile.

Upon hearing this, a playful, amused expression instantly appeared on Yang Mi's face.

The next second, without the slightest hesitation, in front of the camera, the crowd, and millions of viewers in the live broadcast room, she calmly raised her hand and slowly removed all her foundation and makeup, revealing her unadorned natural face.

She then placed her exquisite makeup bag directly on the table, looked up at Ye Zhou, and said crisply, "Since you know so much about makeup, then come on and do my makeup yourself."

Everyone had only one thought in their minds:

Sister, you're really pushing yourself too hard!

To go completely makeup-free in front of the entire internet during a live broadcast is just too daring!

It's important to know that female celebrities are most wary of facing high-definition cameras without filters or makeup, especially during live broadcasts. Even the slightest flaw will be magnified, and a slight misstep can turn into a hot topic of discussion online.

Yang Mi looked calm and composed, her face clear and radiant after removing her makeup. Her natural beauty was evident, revealing her strong bone structure. Even without makeup, her looks were still stunning.
