Chapter 361: The male protagonist of this soul-swap story is quite rebellious.
Upon receiving the instructions, Manager Wang immediately sent someone to carry them out.
But He Chengyi wasn't done yet. He looked at the three celebrity guests, his gaze lingering on Yun Qing's face for a while longer without being noticed.
Then he began, "The rules in the hotel kitchen are: no makeup, no loose hair, no long fingernails, no nail polish, no manicures, and no jewelry on your hands..."
He listed a bunch of rules, and then said, "Although you're just here to film a show, since you're here to work, I hope my hotel guests won't be mistreated."
Lin Xinrou's face turned green.
She has a naturally yellowish-black complexion, and with her career booming, she's always very busy, doesn't get enough rest, and wears makeup frequently, resulting in very poor skin condition.
Therefore, she always wears makeup whenever she appears on camera, and even when she appears without makeup, it's not really without makeup.
Previously, some viewers in the live stream complained that the guest was sleeping too exquisitely and beautifully, and they were referring to her.
She looked like she hadn't woken up yet, but she had actually gotten up early, put on makeup, and then lay back down in bed.
Now, if we ask her to remove her makeup, she will naturally resist it. If this goes wrong, it will become a black mark and cause her to lose fans!
She could tie her hair up and take off her jewelry, but she was reluctant to part with her newly done manicure. Besides, judging from what President He said, her nails had to be cut completely bald, which would look too ugly!
Ling Xiao is alright. Youth is his asset. He's not ugly even without makeup. His nails are usually neatly trimmed. He can just remove the ring from his hand.
Yun Qing didn't care at all. She hadn't had time to put on makeup in the morning because she was in a rush to eat breakfast, and she just casually tied her hair into a bun. As for her nails...
Last night, in the heat of passion, she accidentally scratched He Chengyi's back. Being a love-struck fool, she angrily cut her nails on the spot.
Then, when He Chengyi bullied her until she cried, she regretted it. She should have saved the time to scratch him!
However, her fingers are slender and delicate, and she looks good even without long nails, so there's no need to worry about it.
She simply took off the thin bracelet from her wrist; it didn't look very secure, and it would be a big problem if it fell into the food.
After He Chengyi finished speaking, he seemed to stop paying attention to them and went into the kitchen, apparently to do a thorough inspection.
However, since he had already said so much, it would seem like he was not taking the guests seriously if they didn't follow his instructions.
Ling Xiao took off the ring and said to Lin Xinrou, "Sister Xinrou, let's go remove our makeup first!"
Lin Xinrou was so resistant to removing her makeup that when she heard him say that, she reacted very strongly and quickly took two steps back, bumping into Yun Qing, who was behind her and was about to go and study the stove.
Caught off guard, Yun Qing swayed and was about to fall towards the stove.
He Chengyi, who was very close to her, quickly reached out to support her waist and raised his other arm, which Yun Qing grabbed to steady her.
The accident happened so suddenly that everyone was caught off guard. They only breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that Yun Qing was alright.
Lin Xinrou's expression changed, and she quickly and sincerely apologized to Yun Qing.
He Chengyi politely withdrew his hand, then said coldly with a stern face, "Miss Lin, is it necessary to kill me to silence me just for asking you to remove your makeup?"
Lin Xinrou's face was rather pale, and even her eyes were a little red. She felt wronged and worried that she would leave a bad impression on He Chengyi and lose the endorsement opportunity. "I'm sorry..."
Yun Qing glanced at He Chengyi and said, "I'm fine."
She actually just wanted to comfort He Chengyi, but to the audience, she seemed particularly magnanimous, since if she had actually bumped into the stove, the problem could have been serious or minor.
After realizing what had happened, many viewers changed their opinion of her. Some also felt that Lin Xinrou was acting strangely, wondering why she was so agitated over just removing her makeup.
Wasn't she without makeup when she woke up in the morning?
However, most viewers are focused on other things.
Previously, the cameras had intentionally avoided focusing on He Chengyi, as the production team didn't want to cause trouble.
But now it is He Chengyi who has taken the initiative to appear in the camera.
The scene where he saved Yun Qing was filmed in its entirety.
[He only touched his lower back to save someone, so why do I feel...]
It's a bit astringent, isn't it?
Yes, yes, yes! You know me, sister!
[Because President He's hands have such defined knuckles, they look so seductive! And Song Yunqing's alluring slender waist, it's perfect for pinching and doing naughty things!]
[+1 Those hands and that waist...it's just so alluring! I really want to bring them a bed!]
[Song Yunqing's hands are so beautiful! The way she grabbed them was so rough, even every wrinkle on President He's sleeve exuded an indescribable roughness.]
These two look so good together, and they have this feeling of unfulfilled desire yet restraint when they stand together. It's so sweet to ship them! I'm shipping them now!
【No way! These two are completely unrelated, how did you two end up fighting?】
[Nonsense! What do you mean by completely unrelated? This involves supporting the back; it's practically a surgical procedure!]
【What?! CP fans are being ridiculous!】
The person involved has no idea how far the online "fanatics" have gone in their fantasies.
He Chengyi believed he had been very careful to avoid suspicion; even in such a critical situation, he did not immediately pull the person into his arms.
Little did he know that in the eyes of CP fans, being in the same frame means they're showering each other with affection, making eye contact means they're going to bed together, and touching fingertips means they'll have a house full of children.
Besides, he touched Yun Qing's waist! That's her waist!
Isn't this enough to conjure up 100,000 words of bedroom literature?
With things escalating like this, Lin Xinrou knew that she had no choice but to remove her makeup. Her excessive resistance would only make the audience more suspicious and speculate.
It probably won't be long before the gossip accounts start spreading rumors that she's been disfigured.
Most importantly, she couldn't afford to offend He Chengyi.
He Chengyi is clearly angry now. If she doesn't go along with him, she might not only lose her spokesperson status, but she could also be kicked out on the spot.
He Chengyi didn't seem like the type to give her face; someone of his status and position didn't need to give her face.
At this moment, she began to feel that meeting He Chengyi today was not a stroke of luck but a misfortune!
She felt a bit resentful towards Yun Qing; why did she run up behind her for no reason?
The thought of being compared to an ugly, dark-skinned girl by her in a little while made her furious.
She had noticed that Yun Qing wasn't wearing makeup, and Ling Xiao was obviously the same, so she only called Yun Qing to remove her makeup.
At this moment, Ling Xiao brought over a glass of water and handed it to Yun Qing, saying with concern, "Sister, drink some water to calm your nerves."
He Chengyi's expression grew even colder.
What's this kid up to? Doesn't he have any sense?
His gaze was deep, his eyelashes drooped slightly, and he said with some melancholy, "Kids are more caring and have more guts. They don't care at all whether their fans will be unhappy or not, unlike me, who is always thinking about the bigger picture."
Ling Xiao's hand, which was offering water, froze, his mind a little blank.
Before he could even react to the situation, Yun Qing had already instinctively comforted him with concern, saying, "President He is young and promising. How can a kid compare to you? Besides, President He saved me. Isn't that more precious than a glass of water?"
Assistant Lin's head was buzzing a little; he finally understood why the boss's wife wasn't very popular with the public.
They really just say whatever comes to mind, completely oblivious to the art of language.
I didn't notice this problem with her before? Or is it that she doesn't care about people she's not familiar with?
He Chengyi was also stunned for a moment. He thought Yun Qing would comfort him secretly and cautiously, but he didn't expect her to openly comfort him regardless of her own life or death.
If she says that, Ling Xiao's fans will definitely criticize her, and even ordinary viewers might think she's ungrateful, since Ling Xiao is showing concern for her no matter what.
He Chengyi said calmly, "Miss Song, aren't you afraid that saying this will displease Mr. Ling's fans?"
Yun Qing blinked, quite self-righteously, "I'm just stating the facts. Do Ling Xiao's fans think he's younger and more promising than President He?"
Ling Xiao quickly replied, "I certainly can't compare to President He."
Yun Qing suddenly said, "It's true that you're younger than President He."
Ling Xiao: ...Thank you, but I don't want to compete with President He!
He Chengyi: ...A bolt from the blue! Qingqing thinks I'm old?
