Wen Yan looked at Song Na, her voice calm and even, "Hello, Miss Song."
Song Na glanced at her and offered a handshake, "Miss Wen, no need to be polite. I've heard your skills are exceptional, and I'll finally get to witness them myself."
Wen Yan chuckled lightly, "It's all thanks to the clients' consideration. Miss Song, you shouldn't take it too seriously."
After a battle fought without a single shot fired, Bai Quan looked at Song Na and noticed the fleeting contempt in her eyes that she couldn't quite retract. She sensed a certain hostility from this woman towards Wen Yan.
Song Na tugged at her lips, "Regardless, Miss Wen must have some talent."
She then looked at Lu Si, "Sister Lu, may I take Miss Wen in then?"
Lu Si hummed and turned to Wen Yan, "Miss Wen, I'll leave it to you then. Please call me if you need anything."
"Okay."
Lu Si left, and Song Na turned to enter a private dressing room.
Wen Yan and Bai Quan followed closely behind.
As she entered the dressing room, Wen Yan heard Song Na instructing her female assistant, "Go brew three cups of coffee."
"Yes, Sister Na." The assistant nodded and went into another room.
Song Na sat down, took out her makeup box, and looked at Wen Yan in the mirror, "Miss Wen, is there anything I need to prepare?"
Wen Yan waved her hand, "I've already taken a look. Miss Song's cosmetics are quite complete, so there's no need to prepare anything else."
"If you're ready, we can begin."
Song Na opened her makeup box, "Then I'll trouble you."
With that, she closed her eyes to rest.
Tonight's event was very important, yet Sister Lu didn't allow her to use her own stylist.
She told her that Wen Yan's styling was excellent and that she wanted to hire her.
She did know something about this Wen Yan, but she was somewhat dismissive of external praise.
She had seen many stylists, and there were indeed a few who had truly amazed her.
But regarding this Wen Yan, she felt it was a bit exaggerated.
The assistant brought out the coffee and placed it on the coffee table, "Sister Na, it's ready."
Song Na nodded, then offered a warm welcome.
Wen Yan thanked her and walked to the makeup mirror, beginning her work.
Having all the essential cosmetics readily available saved her a lot of time.
Wen Yan became fully immersed in the styling process.
She had to admit, Song Na had a great foundation, and a little enhancement could achieve unexpected results.
Coupled with the fact that all the cosmetics were high-end brands, the overall effect was stunning.
Midway through, Bai Quan received an urgent call from her company. She informed Wen Yan and said she would be back later.
Wen Yan acknowledged this and told her not to bother coming back if she was too busy.
Bai Quan nodded and left.
An hour later, the makeup portion was nearing completion.
Wen Yan checked again, "Miss Song, you can open your eyes now. Let me know if anything needs adjustment."
Song Na responded with a perfunctory hum, but as soon as she opened her eyes and saw herself in the mirror, she was incredulous.
They always said that a stylist could infinitely enhance a woman's beauty.
Now, she truly understood.
Song Na's tone softened slightly, "Miss Wen truly lives up to her reputation. When can we start on the clothing design!"
Wen Yan smiled and replied, "We can start anytime. Just tell me your waist measurements and your requirements, and I can begin sketching the design."
Song Na nodded, stated her waist size, and was about to speak when Leng Bai Rui's voice came from outside the door, "Sister Nana, I'm here to visit you!"
When Leng Bai Rui pushed the door open and saw Wen Yan standing there, her face instantly turned ugly, "Wen Yan, what are you doing here?"
Wen Yan found it amusing and looked at the fuming Leng Bai Rui, "Miss Leng, I don't need to inform you of where I go."
Song Na sensed the tension between them and asked Leng Bai Rui, "Sister Bai Rui, do you know Miss Wen?"
Leng Bai Rui was furious, "Sister Nana, she's the woman I told you about who did my mother's styling."
Then, she shouted in exasperation, "Wen Yan, leave! You're not welcome here."
Seeing Wen Yan made her angry.
When Song Na heard that Wen Yan was a stylist for the Leng family, she remembered Leng Bai Rui mentioning that Leng Xun Ze seemed to know Wen Yan, and a flicker of jealousy crossed her eyes.
Wen Yan, instead of getting angry, smiled, "Miss Leng, don't you think you're being a bit too meddlesome?"
Leng Bai Rui, hearing this, became enraged, "You, who are you calling names?"
No one had ever dared to speak to her like this.
She truly detested this Wen Yan!
Wen Yan saw Leng Bai Rui clenching her fists in anger and said, "Miss Leng, I have no connection with you, nor any grudges. You don't need to put on such a bitter expression every time you see me."
"Anyone who didn't know would think we were half-sisters."
Leng Bai Rui glared at her, her face flushing with anger, "You think you're worthy of being my sister? Shameless! Get out of here now!"
Seeing Wen Yan reminded her of being scolded by her mother in the villa.
Wen Yan saw that Leng Bai Rui was becoming increasingly out of line. She hadn't intended to argue with her, but Leng Bai Rui escalated things. A cold glint appeared in her eyes, "Miss Leng, you don't have the authority to kick me out. I'm indulging you, but I'm not afraid of you. You'd best behave yourself."
Leng Bai Rui stomped her foot in anger, "You..."
Before she could finish, Song Na intervened as a peacemaker. She looked at the furious Leng Bai Rui, "Sister Bai Rui, say a little less. There's coffee on the table to help you calm down."
Wen Yan doing styling for the Leng family meant potential friction with Leng Xun Ze.
While she wasn't worried that Leng Xun Ze would fall for a stylist, some cautionary measures were necessary.
With this in mind, Leng Bai Rui subtly apologized on behalf of Leng Bai Rui, "Miss Wen, I apologize. My sister Bai Rui is just blunt. If anything I said made you uncomfortable, I apologize on her behalf."
Wen Yan heard this and said no more, "It's alright, I won't hold it against Miss Leng."
Leng Bai Rui was already feeling wronged, and hearing Wen Yan's words almost made her explode again, "Wen Yan!"
Fearing they would start arguing again, Song Na gave Leng Bai Rui a look. Leng Bai Rui reluctantly suppressed her anger and said, "Sister Nana, I'll come find you to play when certain people leave."
With that, she snorted and turned away, leaving in a huff.
Wen Yan didn't mind.
In her eyes, Leng Bai Rui was like a spoiled heiress, lawless and unrestrained.
However, given her personality, she would surely fall into trouble in the future.
After Leng Bai Rui left, Song Na sighed, "My sister's personality... Miss Wen, please don't take it to heart."
Wen Yan smiled, "Miss Song, you worry too much. I've already passed that stage."
If Leng Bai Rui hadn't provoked her, she could have completely acted as if nothing had happened.
But this was the only time.
Song Na chuckled lightly, "Miss Wen is truly understanding."
