Esports world champion, debuted as the center of a talent show

The mirror reflected the familiar makeup artist. She was twenty minutes late, looked very tired, and the dark circles under her eyes were particularly striking.

"Sis, what's wrong?" Yao Wei, who was sitting next to her, was typing away on her phone. She glanced up briefly and was immediately shocked by the woman's extremely poor mental state.

The makeup artist hurriedly put down the package, quickly cleared a space on the table to place the makeup tools, and let out a long breath.

She was visibly in poor condition, with bloodshot eyes and a hoarse, weak voice: "I'm fine, I just rushed over from another venue overnight, I didn't sleep a wink all night."

She rubbed her temples briefly, forced herself to stay awake, and reached for her makeup bag.

knock --

A dull knocking sound came from the doorway.

Jiang Zhiyu shifted his gaze from her pale face in the mirror to the doorway of the dressing room.

The staff member wearing a baseball cap who had led the way earlier was standing by the door frame, looking somewhat impatient.

Clearly, the makeup artists' lateness was beyond the staff's expectations. Not only were the makeup artists responsible for Jiang Zhiyu and Yao Wei late today, but two other makeup artists were also late.

The other party's voice was polite but carried a hint of pressure, subtly reminding, "Teachers, you've worked hard. We need to speed up the makeup and styling process here; we'll be starting the overall rehearsal soon."

The final makeup and styling for the final night was completely different from previous performances. Since the final stage was divided into solo and team performances, the makeup and styling were more difficult and complicated.

The production team created custom-made individual performance outfits for each person and designed different makeup looks.

However, the group's stage performances cannot be too stylistically different, otherwise the visual effect will be greatly diminished.

This puts the makeup artist to a great test of their ability to balance the two makeup looks, making it significantly more difficult than the previous times.

For this reason, the production team required all makeup artists to arrive on set in advance to prepare.

"Understood." The makeup artist responded, composed herself, and picked up her tools to begin work.

Jiang Zhiyu's makeup today was more flamboyant than the previous times. The makeup artist's fatigue did not affect her outstanding professional skills at all, and she maximized Jiang Zhiyu's facial advantages.

She calmed herself down and carefully copied the makeup she had already designed in her mind onto Jiang Zhiyu's face.

Jiang Zhiyu's excellent bone structure and facial features resulted in a final effect that was even better than she had anticipated.

While waiting in line, Yao Wei heard the noise from the dressing table, looked up from her phone out of boredom, and stared at Jiang Zhiyu in front of her, completely stunned.

He remained stunned, muttering in amazement, "Brother Jiang, you look so good today..."

Jiang Zhiyu couldn't see any difference between this stage makeup and the previous ones. He looked at Yao Wei's exaggerated reaction with a puzzled expression, then looked back at himself in the mirror with a puzzled expression, looking left and right but still couldn't see anything.

Although he didn't understand, he still responded to the compliment with a very flattering, "Thank you."

Yao Wei immediately saw through Jiang Ge's simple and easy-to-understand inner thoughts, and his face flushed red as he earnestly explained, "I'm serious, bro. You look very different today, how should I put it... simply put, you're like you're glowing!"

The makeup artist looked at her stunning face in the mirror, breathed a sigh of relief, and whispered in agreement, "Jiang, in all my years in the industry, doing your makeup is the most fulfilling thing I've ever done."

Jiang Zhiyu, his lips gleaming, pursed his lips, his gaze drifting between Yao Wei and the makeup artist, whose faces were filled with amazement. He coughed lightly, seemingly avoiding the topic: "Come on, it's your turn."
