Chapter 427 - The wig and the snake dress (2/2)
She spent another minute just to assure and promise Jeremy that Ryn would not be alone with the crews tonight. Jeremy also would not come tonight to meet Ryn so as not to put pressure on Ryn in front of the camera crews.
”I need a drink,” Mei Li said with a sigh after the phone call. She did not realize how nervous she was when talking with Jeremy. After it ended, she found herself sweating. And she definitely needed a drink to feel better.
And she had another call to make.
She bought a cup of double espresso. Instead of returning back to the studio, she chose a table in the cafe to have her drink.
The bitter drink made her eyes opened wide. No, it actually made her wince from the bitterness before she opened her eyes. She sighed. She really needed this.
She took another fifteen minutes to be ready to call Mika. She knew better to have a conversation with the other woman with her mind was still remembering the conversation she had with Mika's elder brother. It was a stressful conversation. She had to make sure that the man did not misunderstand her or worst, misunderstood Ryn. That man could pack a huge factory with his overloading vinegar.
To compare Mika with her brother, of course, Mika was much more understanding as long as she did not misunderstand that she was not needed by Ryn. As long as she did not feel that Ryn avoided her, she could accept anything.
And it was time for her, as Ryn's manager, to inform Mika about tomorrow's shooting so that if Mika met with Ryn tomorrow, she could control herself a little bit. We could not see Mika being her crazy self shouting and demanding of Ryn on the television. She still had to watch over her image as the little witch in the company.
Luckily for her, Mika did not question much about the shooting. She said she understood and knew what to do tomorrow.
And it only took Mei Li just fifteen minutes.
Mei Li returned back into the studio. Ryn was still in the middle of the shooting. She already changed into another outfit.
Ryn was wearing a red dress. It was tight at the chest and the waist but quite poofy on the leg and sleeve. It should look ridiculous but being Ryn, she managed to make it look good.
Mei Li stood beside the photographer. She watched as her model working on the set for a few seconds before she went to check the result in the computer. Each picture the photographer took would go immediately into the computer.
”Good... good... okay, next outfit,” the director said as he clapped his hands. His eyes shone brightly as he checked each frame Ryn took.
So far there was no frame he hated. Each frame was perfect but he still wanted more from the same outfit even though the first one already perfect. Just for the 'just in case' situation.
Ryn nodded. She walked back into the room to change into another outfit. This was actually her fourth outfit and the one she would change would be her last outfit for this shooting. So excited!
She could not wait to take off the wig. Her neck was getting more painful every minute.
The next outfit was another dress. This time, it was a green dress. In a snake pattern!
When Ryn was done wearing it, she looked in the mirror. And scratched her nape.
This was the hardest dress she ever wore. The snake dress was quite a handful to handle but she believed she could do it.
”Let me touch up the make-up,” the make-up artist said as she checked Ryn's face. She powdered and added a little bit of lipstick.
The hairstylist checked the wig carefully. It was still safe on top of Ryn's head. Phew...
”Okay, you're ready,” she said with a big smile. She and the make-up artist went back to their spot to continue their chatting. They were not worried about Ryn because the model was professional and could do anything she was expected to do.
Ryn returned to the set and took a deep breath. Her mind was busy thinking about the kind of poses she could do to 'sell' the product.
It was challenging to do it but she hoped she did not ruin the dress too much. Oh no. Now she was nervous. And she never this nervous when doing her job.
