Hi everyone~ 🌙 We have a new project on the website! This time, the novel is translated by Tiramipat, one of our new translators. The title is: Personal Makeup Artist For A Top Celebrity If you enjoy entertainment industry stories, celebrity romance, workplace survival, and a cold male lead who slowly becomes shamelessly flirty, this one might be for you. The story follows Shen Yi, a fresh graduate makeup artist who dreams of becoming the personal makeup artist of a warm and popular superstar, Zhang Yuanfan. But because of her best friend’s scheme, she loses that chance and unexpectedly ends up working for his biggest rival, Lin Zexi, the cold “Iceberg” Best Actor. Their first meeting is far from sweet. Shen Yi witnesses Lin Zexi’s terrible temper and even sees the previous makeup artist taken away by the police. As a newcomer, she only wants to survive her probation period quietly and stay invisible. But somehow, Lin Zexi starts noticing his little makeup artist—her sharp tongue, her skills, her courage, her sense of justice, and even her cooking. From a scary boss and a nervous makeup artist, their relationship slowly turns into something much more fun, sweet, and chaotic. When the media exposes their relationship and claims: “Lin Zexi exploits his female makeup artist.” Lin Zexi directly responds: “She couldn’t resist my charm. I’m the one being taken advantage of.” If you’re curious about this bold, flirtatious Best Actor and his unlucky-but-capable makeup artist, please check out the novel and give Tiramipat’s new project some love!

“Excuse me, what can I do for you?” Su Xiaoxiao asked politely.
The woman smiled and said, “I thought I was late, fortunately you guys haven’t left yet. The cakes your family sold are better and cheaper than those from Jinji.”
“Today’s cakes are sold out.” Su Xiaoxiao said.
The woman laughed, “I’m not here to buy cakes, I want to buy salted eggs from you. I have tasted your family’s egg yolk pastry, it uses high quality salted egg yolks, which is not inferior to the salted egg yolks that I have eaten in the capital.”
“Have you ever been to the capital?” Su Xiaoxiao asked.
The woman smiled bitterly and said, “I followed my husband to the capital to take the imperial examination a few years ago, But it’s a pity that he ended up failing the examination. My son is better than him, less than 20 years old, and he has already passed Xiucai*. This year’s provincial imperial examination, he will soon go to the capital to study. I want to buy some salted egg for him to take. So I wonder if you sell salted eggs?”
*Xiucai (秀才) : is a scholar who has passed the imperial examinations in China and obtained the qualification for admission to academic institution in ancient China.
“How much do you want?”
Originally, in order to supply Jinji, their family had stocked up a lot of salted eggs.
If someone really wanted to buy them, she could also sell them.
“Can I ask the price?” The woman said.
Su Xiaoxiao thought for a moment and said, “I will give you 18 wen for one piece, and if you buy 50, I will give you the price of 17 wen.”
The woman exclaimed and said, “You guys only sell egg yolk pastry for 20 wen a piece ah.”
Su Xiaoxiao explained, “The egg yolk pastry only uses the egg yolk, and you want to buy a whole salted egg. So the cost of the salted egg also includes the egg white.”
The egg white was salty, and salt in ancient times was expensive ah!
“Ah this……” The woman’s face looked tangled, “You sell it to me at a cheaper price, and I will introduce you to others in the future.”
“How much do you want?” Su Xiaoxiao asked.
“Originally I only wanted a few dozen, but at your price……” The woman hesitated for a moment and sighed, “If I buy a hundred, can it be a little cheaper?”
Su Xiaoxiao said, “16 wen, can’t be any more less.”
The woman gritted her teeth and said, “Okay! When can I get the goods?”
Su Xiaoxiao said, “The morning after tomorrow at the latest.”
The woman urged, “Then let’s make an agreement. Miss, you can’t go back on your word! My son happens to be in the carriage the day after tomorrow. After the day after tomorrow, he will leave!”
Su Xiaoxiao nodded, “Sure.”
——
Jinji.
The woman went back and made the report to Shopkeeper He, “Shopkeeper He, it’s done. 16 wen for a piece, a total of 100 pieces, and she promised to bring the salted eggs the morning after tomorrow.”
Shopkeeper He asked, “Are you sure that there won’t be any problems?”
The woman said, “I have also paid the deposit. I think this girl’s character is pretty good, so she won’t break the promise.”
The waiter said in disbelief, “Hmph, if her character was really good, then she wouldn’t have cut off the supply to our Jinji!”
The woman remained silent, and did not make any comments.
Shopkeeper He gave the waiter a hint, and the waiter took out a money bag and handed it to the woman.
The woman took it with both hands, “Thank you, Shopkeeper He.”
After the woman left, the waiter said with a smile on his face, “Shopkeeper He, it’s still you who is amazing ah! You know how to find a person from a theater troupe to pretend to be a guest! That girl didn’t know anything, and maybe she’s happy to receive orders! When we get the goods the day after tomorrow, we will go back and finish her!”
By then, there was no need to worry about anything, that girl’s good days would be over!
……
In the next two days, Su Xiaoxiao’s stall went exceptionally well.
Jinji seemed to have compromised, allowing Su Xiaoxiao and Su Ergou to have good business without causing any trouble for the siblings again.
On this day, the siblings have sold out the snacks.
The woman came to pick up the goods according to the agreed time, a total of one hundred, all in good condition.
The woman checked the goods, and settled the bill. She couldn’t help but said with a smile, “Miss, really thank you very much!”
