Words : 1826 Updated : Nov 28th, 2024

“Manager Lin, i always do the makeups for manager Gao.” the speaker is Ma Xiaoqing, the one who stands so hurriedly that the stool at her feet is thrown aside. Helen turns to Ma Xiaoqing, seeing the hatred sense in her eyes, she then feels more depressed right now. “Manager Lin, you should let Xiaoqing do the makeups, i’m not familiar with the taste of manager Gao, if i make her unhappy, then things will be worse.” Helen tries to get away with this trouble, she feels a bit irritated right now. “Yes, manager Lin, i used to do the makeups for manager Gao, you...” “It’s manager Gao’s idea, if you have any problem, you should ask manager Gao...”manager Lin interrupts Ma Xiaoqing before she finishes her sentences, he then stands up and taps on Helen’s shoulder:”Helen, you should be prepared to go.” manager Lin said gently. It’s said that one man’s meat is another man’s poison, things that Ma Xiaoqing scrambles for becomes total disaster for Helen. Since the thing has already been settled, Helen then gets up and begins to tidy things she needs for the makeup. It’s her first time to do the make-up, so she puts in all of the things she needs, because she don’t know Gao Wei’s preferences. “Hum, the country bumpkin now wants to be the phoenix on the branch...” Ma Xiaoqing said with dissatisfaction. Helen closes her eyes and opens again, then she walks out of the makeup room with suitcase. She don’t want to stay here a minute. “Look at her, so arrogant...” “Qingqing, don’t be angry, didn’t you say make-up is one tiring thing? Just leave the hard work to her.” “Yes, qingqing, she’s just a country bumpkin, no need to quarrel with her...” The heavy brass door closed now, cutting off all the gossips inside. Helen walks to the gate and finds a step to sit down, she then takes out her phone and plans to send messages to Paddy, but she then thinks it’s not proper, she’s an adult now, how can she complain things to a kid! Suddenly, she finds that there’s barely a person who she can share feelings with in this big world. At the thought of this, she then puts away her phone and leans on the post to wait for Gao Wen. There’s an extended version of maybach not far from the gate on the rode. “Antony, isn’t that your...miss Brown?” Liu Xu asked with some uncertainty. Antony is now looking at some documents, hearing this, he then looks at the direction Liu Xu pointed to him. Seeing a woman leans against the side of a stout marble pillar with her eyes closed, she seems to fall asleep. Though the distance is a bit far, he still can recognize it’s Helen. He heard from Paddy the last few days that she already found the job, could it be here? This is a model makeup company that he acquired only two years ago, after the acquisition, he then gave it to Gao Wen, in recent years, though there’s no great improvement, the company still get it’s place in C city by the background of Davis Family. She works here? But why she sits at the door? What’s she doing here? For cleaning? At the thought of this, Antony feels a bit irritated all of a sudden, he don’t understand why a young girl loves to do these kind of jobs, is there anything else she can do? He then turns back to his documents, but it’s hard for him to focus on the paper again. Gao Wen now walks out of her office, seeing Helen sitting on the step, she then cold hums a voice. She’s really a country bumpkin, how can she sit like this? Gao Wen slowly lowers her body and pulls up Helen:”Miss Brown, why you sit on the ground?” she then walks behind Helen and taps off the dust on her. Helen suddenly feels so warm in heart, this woman has so good personality. She’s not only approachable but also warm-hearted. “Thanks manager Gao.” Helen nods at Gao Wen with a smile. The confusion she have for the things that happened the other day decrease now bit by bit. “Let’s go, Antony is expecting us!” Gao Wen said indifferently at Helen, her heart feels a bit cold after noticing Helen’s shivering body. Helen nods, turns back, and then bends to take the case on the ground. When she looks back again, she sees Gao Wen with long hair, lilac gown, ivory satin shawl, champagne heels which are more than ten centimeters. Suddenly there’s a saying in her mind: men’s desire for beautiful women is part of evolution. She, she’s really perfect! When Gao Wen comes to the car, Antony then opens the door for her, seeing the dress she’s wearing, he then says:”you should’ve changed the dress when you get there, you will get cold with this.” Hearing the gentleness and consideration from his tone, Helen then looks up to see Antony, there’s a trace of envy in her heart all of a sudden, the envy soon becomes sad. Is she not entitled to enjoy his tenderness in her life? Woman like her... Antony accidently falls his sight on Helen, seeing the loss in her eyes, he suddenly feels a bit shocked. “She...this is...” Antony asked with eyes on Helen who stands outside. Gao Wen shouts slightly all of a sudden:”ah, silly me, i almost forget Miss Brown.” she then rolls down the car window and says to Helen with a gentle tone:”sister Brown, i’m really sorry, please get in the car, you can sit in the front seat.” Her voice is so sweet and gentle... Helen then nods and backs to her mind. shen pulls open the door and sits in the passenger cab. Liu Xu smiles at her when she gets in the car. She then nods back. But she never looks at Antony. She lacks of confidence being with him especially in front of Gao Wen. “Antony, sister Brown now works in our company, i heard from my cousin that her skills in making up is not inferior to those famous artists. I’m so glad she’s not babysitting at your house anymore, otherwise, i will lose one talent...” Helen sips her lips and feels awkward now. Hearing this, Antony raises his head to see Helen with a meaningful look, his sight gets a bit cold right now, and he then says with a very low voice”en”. There’s some traffic jam on the road, the car drives more than half an hour, but the distance is still so far away, unexpectedly, the two people in the back seat don’t talk anymore after the first few words. People in love always be sweet to each other, but these two is quite the opposite. It’s really boring to be in the relationship with people like Antony. Untill later, she comes to know that Antony also do sweet things for her. So everytime when she thinks of today, she then feels so happy. In fact, he’s no exception in front of love. But at this moment, there’s no love attached. Of course, that will be the later thing. The banquet is held on an island,it needs to go around a long distance if they drive, but it will be faster if they takes the boat. When the car approaches to the dock, there’s already someone meeting up. It’s the first time Helen takes the boat, it’s also the first time she knows she hasn seasick, and it’s the serious one even if it’s the advanced yacht. “Miss Brown, are you okay?” Helen holds the chair since the moment she gets on the boat, her face is pale, her forehead full with sweats now.
