Chapter 764: Pain in Your Heart 4
Xia Yinian returned to her room and was just looking at a book when her cellphone on the desk rang."Sister Rong, is there something?" She glanced at the number as she picked up the phone.
"Xia Yinian, where are you now? Can you come over?" Fang Rong was unusually polite.
She didn’t have much choice, considering the caller was not only a member of the Gu Family but also well-connected with the Feng Family.
"I’m at..." Xia Yinian glanced around but didn’t continue, "Sister Rong, what do you need me for?"
"The Cosmetic Group has asked us to send a representative for a makeup trial, and you’d be the most suitable for it."
"You’re one of the youngest girls in this competition, and both your appearance and skin are perfect for it."
"This decision was unanimously approved by the committee, and we hope you can make the trip," Fang Rong’s voice came through from the other side.
Makeup trial? Xia Yinian instinctively felt some resistance to the idea.
She rarely focused on makeup, and more importantly, the word "trial" made it feel somewhat like being a guinea pig.
What if it goes wrong and ruins her face?
"Nian Nian, this is a great opportunity, if you don’t go, I believe many others would."
"The manufacturing of medicinal makeup differs from typical alchemy. You could learn a lot from it, and it might even be helpful for your Alchemy Competition."
Hearing no reply, Fang Rong sounded somewhat anxious.
Once the matter related to alchemy, Xia Yinian’s attitude changed.
"Sister Rong, is the Cosmetic Group belonging to Hengshi?" she asked in a soft voice.
"Of course, who else if not Hengshi?" Fang Rong responded lightly.
Hearing it was Hengshi, Xia Yinian frowned and let out a soft sigh.
"Alright, should I first return to the hotel or go straight to Hengshi Cosmetics Group?"
Uncle and Third Young Master’s Cosmetic Group surely wouldn’t risk damaging her face, right?
"Come back to the hotel first, we still have people heading there," Fang Rong’s voice came through.
"Okay, I’ll be there within thirty minutes," Xia Yinian hung up immediately after speaking.
Then she dialed another number.
"Third Young Master, the International Trade Organization Center just called. They want me to go to your Cosmetic Group for a makeup trial."
This call was not only for Xia Yinian to seek Feng Yan’s approval for her to go out but also to verify if the event was truly happening.
Given her recent experiences of being frequently attacked or abducted, she had to be more cautious.
"Hmm, give me three minutes, I’ll arrange someone to escort you," Feng Yan responded, having only just learned about this, as his subordinates hadn’t initially wanted to report it to him.
After all, it was a minor matter to him.
However, seeing Xia Yinian’s name selected, they naturally had to inform him, as everyone knows the good relationship between Third Young Master Feng and Xia Yinian.
Previously, weren’t the two often seen together? People unaware of the details might even think Third Young Master Feng’s fortunate event was near.
"Thank you, that relieves me," Xia Yinian put down the phone and breathed a sigh of relief.
Soon, she stood up and went to change her clothes.
Since Third Young Master had given his approval, that confirmed the event was indeed happening.
The number used for the call was indeed the one Sister Rong usually used, and the voice belonged to that woman, Xia Yinian didn’t harbour any doubts.
However, now whatever she does, she must be more careful than before, it’s still better to verify.
The saying "Once bitten, twice shy" isn’t without reason.
