655 Something We (2/2)
”Yes, assistant. Not her make-up artist,” reminded Ying.
”But you don't know that Sister Xiu was actually no worse than a professional make-up artist. In fact, the way she did was so damn good that even if she walked down the street full of people, no one would recognize her.”
”So, she taught you this?”
Ying was still a bit apprehensive but she let him do whatever he wanted to. After all, it was not like she could do a better job. Even if she knew the basics, that's all she knew at the end of the day. But since she hated sitting down at the same place for too long, she kept fidgeting around giving Han Bohai a headache.
When he was done with her make-up, Ying was in shock to see herself in the mirror. She looked different. She tilted her head and saw Han Bohai's expression that was screaming, 'Go on! Shower me with compliments.' But what came out of her mouth was, ”On how many people did you practice on?”
Han Bohai's smile vanished as he replied, ”I have only done this for my Sister Xiu and my cousin. You're the third person who knows about this talent of mine.”
”Should I feel honored?” retorted Ying.
Han Bohai shook his head and pulled her towards the changing room as he picked up her dress and said, ”There is no need to feel honored. Just do me a favor and get dressed.”
”Go out then,” said Ying when she noticed that he wasn't leaving.
”I'll help you with the zipper,” he said with such an innocent expression that if Ying didn't know about his shamelessness, she might actually fall for it.
”Get out!” was all she said.
”Oh...” his expressions fell as he turned to leave.
He was fixing his necktie when Ying came out in her dress asking, ”What am I supposed to do with this?” He turned around to look at her and momentarily forgot what to say. ”Oi!” Ying called out again to get his attention.
Han Bohai shook his head and walked over, ”That's the overskirt. What do you think you're supposed to do with it?”
”I know what it is. I'm just asking whether I should wear it or not?”
He took the detachable overskirt from her hand and said, ”We're definitely wearing it.” After that, he meticulously helped her in fixing the overskirt and then looked at her from head to toe with appreciation.
Ying's dress was a strapless beaded embroidered cocktail dress with an overskirt. The gorgeous gown had a fitted strapless bodice with a sweetheart neckline and wrapped around to the mid-open back with zippered-closure. The beaded and appliqued sheath silhouette cocktail dress was complemented by an organza overskirt with bead detailing.
Ying looked at her own reflection in the mirror and had to say that Han Bohai's choice wasn't bad. But then again, he had been in the entertainment circle for long enough to be familiar with the know-how of fashion.
Standing behind her, he softly said, ”I knew this dress was made for you but bloody hell! You're looking gorgeous.” His lips pressed against the side of her neck and left a soft kiss. Ying felt tingly at first but when that soft brush of his lips turned into something wet, a shiver ran down her spine which left her immobile.
