Chapter 859 - Chapter 859 - The Magical Hands (Part One)

Initially, he thought Laila was overthinking it. Just because they hadn't been in contact for a week, she thought something had happened. But he often disappeared on missions for a year or more, and his buddies over there wouldn't worry like this.

But who made him owe Laila the lives of several colleagues? This debt of gratitude was something he intended to repay for a lifetime. So, even though he didn't think it was a big deal, he still came to the place Roy had arrived at by plane.

Coincidentally, he had friends here, so he asked them to help find Roy's whereabouts.

Not only did they find out where Roy was, but they also found out about the trouble he had stirred up.

"You guys really know how to stir up trouble." Xiao Ye raised his thumb, looking admiring. Several big stars actually attracted the attention of several underground bosses in South Africa. This would be a major news story worldwide if it got out!

Roy didn't want this kind of praise at all. "What's next? Can you get us out of here?"

"Who do you think I am?" Xiao Ye raised an eyebrow. "It's already impressive enough that I found you in such a short time. Do you expect me to openly send you away from under the noses of those few people? Don't forget, this isn't America."

Of course, Roy knew this wasn't America. Otherwise, with his financial resources, he could have found a bunch of capable people to arrest those damn bandits and lock them up in the police station.

"I don't believe you have no way at all. Since Laila asked you to come, she should know that you're capable of doing what she wants, right?"

Xiao Ye felt a bit annoyed by his words. Clearly, he was the cool and handsome hero, so why did everything he said seem to credit Laila? But what he said wasn't wrong, making him unable to find fault. But why did it sound so unpleasant?

He missed the Roy from a few years ago when he first joined the crew. At that time, he was so easy to fool, he believed anything you said. Unlike now! Maybe he had followed the boss for too long, and had grown a sly fox's head!

He only missed the Roy from a few years ago, forgetting that at that time he had just stepped into the film circle, and was being trained by Laila with the most intensive learning and hard work to develop towards becoming a giant star. At that time, he could be said to still be a novice, naturally easily listening to the words of the "old hands."

Now, Roy was already a top Hollywood star, no longer the rookie he was back then. With his own set of theories, how could he still listen carefully to just anyone's words?

"Really, 'evil company corrupts good morals.' I can see that you'll be corrupted sooner or later by Laila." It's not that he underestimated women, except for that weird woman Laila, he was confident that no woman could make him wary. But Laila, no matter how cleverly he dressed up, could see through him, and when working under her, he could occasionally feel the pressure she brought, she was almost becoming a nightmare for him.

"Thank you for your praise." Roy felt that being able to be like Laila was the highest praise for him.

"..." Xiao Ye didn't want to talk. There's nothing to say to someone who's so crazy about showing affection anytime, anywhere.

"Come on, let's get to work quickly, we still have to catch a plane later."

Seeing him take out a box, Leonardo couldn't help but curiously interject, "Didn't you say there was no way to send us away?" Then why catch a plane?

"There's no way to send you away openly, but I didn't say I couldn't put on makeup that can send you off." Xiao Ye said matter-of-factly, listening to him, the others were all speechless.

This was definitely a perverse taste! Only someone with a really bad personality could make such jokes in such a dangerous environment.

It was normal for Angelo not to know who Xiao Ye was. Generally, people who liked watching movies wouldn't pay much attention to who the makeup artist was. Even at the Oscars ceremony, watched by tens of millions of people, it would be a miracle if one-tenth of them could remember who won the makeup award, let alone more young people who only cared about the major awards.

So, although Xiao Ye was quite famous in the field of makeup and the film circle, not many ordinary people knew him.

Angelo had never seen a makeup box before, but he was familiar with makeup. As someone who liked to play around, he had traveled around the world and had met many women from various countries, so he was naturally very familiar with makeup.

He rummaged through the box and pulled out several cans of unidentified liquid, "What is this?" There were no labels on them, no names, just a few handwritten, ambiguous numbers and letters.

"Don't move them, these things are all mixed by me. If you spill them, there won't be anything left to use for a while." Xiao Ye dragged him directly to the chair in front of him, "Tell me what kind of person you want to be?"

"Anything?"

"Shouldn't be a problem." Speaking of "shouldn't," Xiao Ye's expression was as confident as ever. In the field of makeup, he had absolute confidence. "Want to be an alien or a monster? Whatever you can't think of, there's nothing I can't do."

"Really exciting! How about making me into Roosevelt? I like him!" Angelo looked excitedly at the props in the makeup box.

"No problem!" Xiao Ye rolled up his sleeves and was about to start.

Roy, standing beside him, couldn't stand it anymore, "If you want to play, you can play after we go back. What we need now is a way to leave safely without attracting anyone's attention!" Roosevelt? Why didn't he just dress up as the current president? Did he think that no one outside the country would recognize Roosevelt anymore?

"Fine." Angelo pouted regretfully, "Then make me into a handsome guy. Of course, it can't be the same as me now, I want a different kind of handsome."

"..." Roy felt he was amazing. He was the first man to boldly call himself handsome in front of him and Leonardo.

Xiao Ye was also not polite. He took out a set of props from the makeup box and started applying them to Angelo's face.

Angelo couldn't see himself, but the two people beside him could see very clearly. Especially Leonardo, when he saw Angelo's face gradually changing under those seemingly magical fingers, he had a hallucination that he was living in a magical world.

"This is incredible! Xiao Ye, you really deserve to be the man who won the Oscar for Best Makeup. You have a pair of magical hands!" He had also come into contact with various makeup artists before, but he dared to swear that no one could change a person's appearance in such a short time.

In his impression, special effects makeup artists could create terrifying monsters, they could create things that only appeared in people's fantasies. But the man in front of him wasn't like that. He didn't use masks or any special methods. He just poured some things onto his hands, and then rubbed and kneaded them on Angelo's face, and it was done!
