In no time, Wendy's makeup artist and stylist team, consisting of several professionals, swarmed into the room.
Three people were dedicated to making Wendy up and styling her, causing envy and jealousy to flicker in the eyes of onlookers.
"Having a CEO for a dad must be nice. I wish I could get such treatment."
"Yeah, keep dreaming. She's got a powerful dad. What do you have?"
Jean witnessed this scene and immediately sidled up to Wendy, saying, "Wendy, you're so incredible. You summoned these professional makeup artists with just a phone call. Could you maybe let your makeup artist... do my makeup too?"
Hope shone in Jean's eyes. She had been buttering up Wendy for a while, hoping for some perks, but Wendy merely glanced at her and said, "You?"
Jean quickly nodded, saying, "You see the makeup artists the company sent over? Their skills are subpar. We're good friends, right? Could you let them help me out?"
Jean thought Wendy wouldn't refuse, but she heard Wendy scoff and say, "We're competitors, after all. Do you think I'd let you outshine me?"
Jean was taken aback.
Those nearby snickered at Jean's expense.
"Look at that, all that bootlicking for nothing."
"Right! You better worry about what you're going to do. Everyone heard you say our company's makeup artists aren't skilled, Jean."
"If they're so bad, then Jean, you better figure something out on your own."
