Chapter 42 – Chasing Stars
It turned out that just like her little sister, Su Jishi also wore a blue dress with her hair styled to have two bunches of braids on both her sides!
Just now, the assistant director took her little sister away to change clothes. Li Juan didn’t notice and foolishly mistook one for another.
She stood still on the spot, her eyes wide and round, not talking or moving.
Su Jishi found the little girl who poked her at her sides extremely interesting and deliberately teased her.
“Why, don’t you know me?”
“No … no, no, no, no, no, no,no.”
Su Jin’s advertisements were overwhelming in the city and she was always on the road, meeting people. Who wouldn’t recognize the famous flower?
Five of the ten biggest billboards in the city contained her pictures. Before meeting her, Li Juan stubbornly believed that it was the makeup artist’s superb make-up technology that shaped this pure flower into such a beauty.
But when Su Jin herself stepped out of the screen and stood in front of her in the flesh, she realized how wrong she was!
Others say that Li Juan was an eight-point beauty, but after seeing Su Jin, she only had one thought in her mind — the actress’ full score is actually 100 points, right?
Su Jin’s posture was straight, but she didn’t appear stiff. She was oozing with confidence and charisma though she didn’t look as gentle and demure as she expected.
Her lips smiled and her eyes gleamed and Li Juan could not help feeling feverish all over, just like an ice cream slowly melting under the heat of the sun.
How many stars in this world are destined to revolve around the sun?
Seeing that Li Juan was dazed, Su Jishi broke the silence… “Are you one of the group performers? You haven’t told me yet the reason you want to wipe off your lipstick. Why? ”
“What?…Oh!” Li Juan stepped out of her in bedazzlement. “Miss Zhou said my lipstick is too bright…”
Su Jishi didn’t understand why second aunt would say that.
“Don’t mind her.” she said, “It is everyone’s right to make themselves more beautiful. But…”
“But?” Li Juan couldn’t help but ask.
Su Jishi suddenly stretched out her right hand and unexpectedly lifted the girl’s chin. The surging and domineering rose fragrance swept from her body. The warm thumb brushed past the girl’s lips and Li Juan had no time to react.
She only felt that the areas touched by the actress’ fingers tingled and felt hot.
She didn’t notice when the actress let go of her chin. The next thing she knew, Su Jishi was holding up her thumb in front of her face, showing the red smudge of lipstick.
“You’re welcome.” Su Jishi smiled cordially, “My little friend, your lipstick has not been applied properly. I have wiped it clean for you.”

Li Juan almost sprinted, her steps erratic while she returned to her position in a trance. The little sister who changed her new dress saw her staring off at a distance.
She quickly pushed her and asked, “Why is your face so hot?” But the latter only shook her head and could not speak.
Just then, Li Juan’s cell phone in her pocket rang sharply, taking her out of her stupor. She took it out and found it was a call from a boyfriend who had not been in touch for a long time.
That bastard!
Li Juan had ignored him for more than a week for something that he confessed. He sent countless WeChat messages and made countless phone calls, but she never answered.
The little sister thought Li Juan would hang up again this time, but to her surprise, she pressed the answer key.
As soon as the line was connected, her boyfriend’s eager apology came from inside the receiver.
“It’s all my fault, my wife, I am deeply sorry! Your beauty is unique! I will never say that you look like Su Jin again!”
Almost abruptly, his tone changed from being apologetic to sounding festive.
“Whoops! whoops! whoops! Wife, it will be our anniversary in a few days. I have prepared a present for you. Please forgive me!”
Li Juan gave a slight chuckle and said softly. “Have you prepared a present for me? What a coincidence, I have also prepared something for you! ”
The boy was pleasantly surprised and asked, “What gift?”
Li Juan: “Shall I send you an ex-girlfriend?”
“??!”
“You’re a good boy, it’s just that …” Li Juan sighed and said, “—I just found out now that dating is a waste of time. I’d rather be chasing stars.”
