Chapter 128: Seeking Attention to Rise in Rank

Meng Yi'er looked at her, offering a flawless smile. "I don't think whether it's 'worthy' is the point; what matters is whether it suits you. If a garment is a perfect fit, even the cheapest piece can look like a high-end designer label, don't you agree?"

Seeing that she didn't retort and seemed to be listening intently, Meng Yi'er continued:

"Take this shampoo commercial, for instance. The audience's focus should be on the hair; we shouldn't let the clothing or anything else distract them... Or is it that Ms. Ouyang lacks confidence and feels she cannot bring out the beauty of these outfits?"

"What nonsense are you spouting? How could I possibly fail to pull off these clothes? You underestimate me far too much!" Ouyang Xi’s face, usually so seductive, flushed with indignation, her almond-shaped eyes widening.

Meng Yi'er kept her smile conciliatory. "How could I dare? Everyone knows that Ms. Ouyang’s figure and beauty are top-tier in the entertainment industry. Why don't you try them on and see if they fit?"

Ouyang Xi remained silent, eyeing Meng Yi'er and the two outfits beside her, lost in thought.

Perhaps Meng Yi'er was right.

Although Ouyang Xi was quite famous in the industry and dubbed a "goddess for the masses," she rarely received offers for major endorsements or television dramas. Most of her invitations were for large-scale runway events, and her screen time was mostly earned through attention-grabbing stunts.

If she wanted a lasting career, she couldn't rely on those things alone. Now that she had finally secured a decent commercial endorsement, she couldn't afford to lose the opportunity due to a rash decision.

After a moment of hesitation, Ouyang Xi stood up gracefully, ordered her assistant to pick up the clothes, and slowly walked toward the dressing room.

Before long, the rhythmic clicking of high heels against the floor echoed from the direction of the dressing room. Meng Yi'er looked up to see Ouyang Xi stepping out in the blue gown, coming to a halt before the mirror.

Ouyang Xi stared at her reflection, momentarily stunned. Her young assistant began to clap, exclaiming exaggeratedly, "Wow... Sister Xi, you are simply too beautiful! It’s as if a fairy has descended to earth... You look truly stunning, and this silhouette is just perfect..."

Listening to the flattery, Ouyang Xi curled her lips into a smile. She turned a slow circle in front of the mirror, a look of intoxication washing over her gorgeous face.

Though it was different from her usual style, it looked quite impressive. Despite showing almost no skin, it showcased her figure to perfection.

Meng Yi'er walked up behind her and nodded with satisfaction. "Well? Not bad, is it?"

Ouyang Xi looked at herself again, lifting her chin with pride. "Not bad... it really highlights my figure."

As expected, when trying on the second outfit, Ouyang Xi was equally pleased. Although she maintained her aloof, cold demeanor on the surface, she had begun to acknowledge Meng Yi'er’s taste in her heart, viewing her in a new light.

When it came time for the commercial shoot, Meng Yi'er had nothing to do. Fearing that the notoriously difficult Ouyang Xi might cause trouble, Ye Zimei had specifically authorized Meng Yi'er to accompany her just in case.

Inside the studio, the director was extremely satisfied with Ouyang Xi’s overall styling. He showered her with praise, making her beam with joy until she was practically leaning against him.

The only issue the director raised was her heavy, vivid makeup.

Overall, the shoot went smoothly. It was completed in less than an hour, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
