Chapter 167 Preparation before the banquet
"Out?" As soon as Belle Ye returned to the apartment, he saw Nathan Luo leaning at the door, holding the post-it note she left with his right hand, and shaking it in front of her. The precious aristocratic temperament was still the same, but the movement of shaking the note did not match the usual stern and rigid of him.
She nodded and did not take the initiative to say where she had gone. Nathan Luo glanced at her, his dark pupils seemed to be filled with doubts, turned around and walked in behind her. "Prepare in the afternoon. I have a banquet tonight. I want to take you to it." Belle Ye turned to look at him in shock. Nathan Luo's expression remained unchanged, with a gentle and faint smile on his cold and charming face: "Surprised?" NôvelDrama.Org owns © this.
For her, this was not surprise, it was shock! Belle Ye slowly looked away, and Nathan Luo's smile suddenly made her feel timid. Banquet? What a joke! Did she get it wrong? Nathan Luo leaned on the back of the sofa with his hands spread out, and leaned over to face her hindneck. From a distance, his action seemed to hold her in his arms.
Belle Ye felt the heat coming from behind her ears, she immediately shuddered stiffly, and she subconsciously rubbed her shoulders forward. As soon as she moved, her shoulders were held down by him, and the warmth gradually came from her back. Her body stiffened, and the scorching breath spread around her with ambiguity. "Don't be afraid. It's just a small banquet. Those who come here are all acquaintances in the circle. Just take this opportunity to announce our affairs. Avoidance will not solve the problem."
"I didn't escape." Belle Ye moved aside. "Then this matter is settled." Nathan Luo gave a final word, but then Belle Ye jumped up: "What is settled? I, I have promised anything?""I don’t need you to agree to me now, as long as you show it to them.” He calmed her emotions softly, and Belle Ye also felt that her reaction was too agitated. She sat down and felt a headache for the evening banquet.
Nathan Luo knew she was unwilling to go, "It's just some friends in the business field, you don't need to be nervous, there will be a stylist and makeup artist in the afternoon." As he said, he poured a glass of boiling water, opened the cabinet under the coffee table, took out the medicine she was taking recently, poured some on a sheet of paper according to the dosage, and handed it to her, "Take the medicine first. If you feel uncomfortable, remember to tell me, understand?"
"Understand." Seeing her sullen expression, Nathan Luo felt a little bit amused: "Come up, your brother rarely asks you to do him a favor. Are you so heartless?" "This is called ‘do a favor’?" To be honest, Belle Ye still didn't know what on earth did he want to do. He really nodded: "Listen to me well, this is ‘do a favor’."
At about two o'clock in the afternoon, a professional makeup and styling team came to the apartment as scheduled. There were six people in total. They were carrying cosmetic bags and evening gowns. When saw Belle Ye, the first young woman in work uniforms bent over respectfully, with a sweet voice: "Miss Ye, we are the makeup team hired by Mr. Luo, and I am the team leader Mi Sha. Is it convenient to serve you now?"
Belle Ye didn't refuse. After she invited them in, she said her request in a hoarse voice. "Don't want to enjoy SPA and Bath?" "Don't wear an evening dress showing shoulders, arms, thighs and neck?" Mi Sha, the person in charge, was completely stunned after hearing her request. The evening dress without showing shoulders, back, thighs, and hands, could also be called an evening dress?
She was a professional top beautician who had just been transferred back from France by the headquarters. She had met all kinds of customers after years of working in the industry, but Belle Ye was definitely the peculiar person she had encountered! God! Mi Sha did not know Belle Ye. This time, a professional beauty team would be dispatched, only because Nathan Luo invited them with large sum of money.
The Luo family's status naturally could afford these top stylists. At first, everyone thought they were going to serve the eldest lady or noble madam from a rich family, but no one thought that she was a little ugly, sickly thin woman. Fortunately, this beauty team was still very professional. Customer first. The customer's request was the imperial edict. Although they felt puzzled in their hearts, they didn't ask anything. After the advice they gave were rejected one after another, they also divided the work and cooperated to serve the "strange" customer diligently and responsibly.
Because of the dress, Mi Sha had to go back and re-select. In addition, Belle Ye's figure was so thin that even the smallest size dress was a little loose for her. Mi Sha searched all the small and large evening dress custom studios in Gang City, and finally found a light gray long-sleeved stand-up collar dress. Although it was autumn now, the weather in the south was more than 20 degrees outdoors. The streets and alleys were full of people with vests, hot pants and small suspenders, not to mention evening dresses.
Belle Ye put on her evening dress and rolled her cuffs up slightly, and her long hair hanged down. her scattered bangs were turned into popular see-through bangs by the hair stylist. Her face was originally mottled and rough. Under the makeup of concealer and liquid foundation, it became white and delicate. The professionalism of Misa and other stylists was evident. In less than an hour, following her many requirements, they could also make Belle look new from top to bottom.
In front of the dressing mirror, Belle Ye looked up and down, awkwardly trying to lift the drooping bangs above her head. Looking at the slender and pretty girl in the mirror, she stood there dazed for a while. Mi Sha had discovered that her walking was inconvenient for a long time, so she didn’t ask much and just told her stylist to find a pair of pointed-toe lambskin flat shoes with diamonds. Belle Ye was a little over 1.7 meters tall, so she was still outstanding after putting on flat shoes. The beauty team, including Mi Sha, was pleasantly surprised to find that after a simple dressing up, this customer of bad presence was actually a little dazzlingly beautiful!
Of course, temperament was also a factor that couldn’t be ignored. Belle Ye had a good breeding, and the dignity and calmness that had been precipitated over many years of experience made her be not worse than those star artists with heavy makeup. "Miss Ye, are you still satisfied?" Before leaving, Mi Sha reconfirmed her opinion. "Thank you for your hard work." Belle Ye did not say that she was satisfied or dissatisfied, but her tone and attitude were full of sincerity.
At eight o’clock in the evening, Nathan Luo drove to the apartment to pick her up. When Belle Ye went downstairs, he stared at her blankly for a while, just before Belle Ye thought he was going to talk with eloquence, Nathan Luo suddenly smiled: "Aren't you hot?" "Let's go." She smiled and got into the car.
This night banquet, she would meet many people... People she knew, people who knew her, they would meet at the banquet, then, what would happen? Belle Ye put those extra thoughts behind her, and turned to look at Nathan Luo who was beside her, "Nathan, after the banquet, I will leave Gang City for a while.” "Okay, do you need me to accompany you?" "No, I want to go by myself." She quietly breathed a sigh of relief and turned back to the car window. Soon, she could go to fulfill her last wish. Wait, wait a day or two.
