Pretty Wife Insists I Live Off Her - Chapter 21

Chapter 21: Wife, We Love You!

Yue Lei’s makeup skills weren’t particularly great, but fortunately, she had eight more years of makeup experience than others.

So even a novice could learn faster than others.

In her previous life, Yue Lei did her own makeup for all but the most important events. She liked women and was married, so she would proactively avoid any inappropriate situations.

Things like letting someone get very close to her face and carefully drawing on it felt too ambiguous.

Although Mo Yingxue never said anything, Yue Lei maintained her “wife’s virtue.”

The only times she let others do her makeup were when she was at an event and the makeup artist wasn’t there, so she would ask the most skilled female streamer in her company to help.

Yue Lei was applying makeup in front of the camera, her mind wandering.

The random makeup challenge genre would have a more shocking effect if it were made into a video.

The beginning would be choosing all sorts of colors, and then the music would change, and the makeup transformation would be complete, creating a huge visual impact on the audience.

Since she was live streaming and doing everything in front of the audience, the mystery was gone.

So Yue Lei spoke while doing her makeup: “I wonder if any of you, my fan babies, are good at video editing. I’m thinking of hiring an editor to make some clips from my streams.”

“Whoa, direct hiring! I hate that I studied hotel management, ahhh!”

“I’d like to ask if the editing job is remote or on-site? I can do remote, but if it’s on-site, our IPs aren’t the same. I don’t really want to move.”

“You’re so naive! If CEO Yue is hiring an on-site editor, you can just move there and have her pay for your room and board! It would be like being supported by a rich, beautiful woman! Just thinking about it is amazing!”

“Oh my god, CEO Yue, wait for me. I’m going to start learning how to edit videos right now!”

“Yes, yes, yes! I used to have a job with a good salary and benefits in front of me, but I missed the opportunity because I couldn’t edit videos. In my next life, I’m going to start learning how to edit videos in the first grade!”

Seeing them get more and more outlandish and taking the topic way off course, Yue Lei got a little anxious.

She said, “I’m hiring a part-time, remote editor. We’ll discuss the salary later. Any babies who are interested can send me a private message!”

At this point, her makeup was almost done.

Yue Lei picked up the mirror and looked at herself from side to side. She had deep brown skin, thin white eyebrows, blue and green cut-crease eyeshadow, and a metallic blue lipstick. All that was left was the white contouring she had landed on earlier.

“Now is the moment of truth. We’ll save the contouring for last.” Yue Lei confidently curled her lips and picked up a highly pigmented white eyeliner. She started to draw a distinct, contoured outline on her face along her bone structure.

“A Jojo fan has arrived! Teacher, when are you going to cosplay a character from my show! Sent “Romantic Full House” X1”

“Ah! You can actually do it like this! You’re skipping class! How annoying! Sent “Slightly Moved” X10”

“I just entered the live stream. So today’s theme is a Jojo character makeup look?”

“When the streamer picked up the eyeliner, I was thinking, ‘She’s not going to use this for contouring, is she?’ Now that I’ve seen the finished product, I can only say that I haven’t seen enough… Sent “Sports Car” X1”

Yue Lei hadn’t watched much of Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure, but the author of that manga was a genius. His unique drawing style was unforgettable once you saw it.

In her previous life, one of the streamers in her company specialized in two-dimensional culture and would often cosplay as various characters during her streams.

A few times, she would do makeup similar to what was on her face now. Yue Lei was stunned at the time and talked to her for a long time out of curiosity.

She put her hands together and apologized to the camera, “I don’t actually know much about the Jojo series. I’ve seen others cosplay it before, so I’m just trying to be clever. If I offended anyone, I’m very sorry.”

“Ahhh! Please cosplay a character properly sometime! Wife, we love you!”

“Wife, I’m here! I’m here! What is this incredible bone structure! So many characters I can think of to cosplay! If only you were a makeup transformation blogger, I would die in your comment section!”

Because of Yue Lei’s finished makeup look, a new group of people had entered the live stream.

But the words these people were typing seemed strange. They were especially enthusiastic and overly familiar.

It wasn’t until she saw Z: “When did you get so many wives? (Paid comment)” that Yue Lei realized what was strange.

“You guys are too enthusiastic. Thank you all so much for your love. But there’s only one wife in this live stream, and that’s Wifey ZZ, ha! This is officially certified by me!”

Yue Lei laughed it off and quickly changed the subject. “I finally finished the makeup. Now I’m going to go change my clothes. Everyone, please wait a moment!”

She left the screen, unaware that the comments had already become a chaotic mess.

“What does the streamer mean? The number one on the gift leaderboard is her wife, and everyone else is just nothing? I thought she was a beauty, but now it seems she treats people differently based on their money. How annoying!”

“You can’t say that. The streamer called her ‘wife’ because Miss Z made a special request with her gift. She usually calls everyone ‘viewer babies.’ I think that’s a cute nickname too.”

“That’s fine. Compared to being a wife, I’d rather be a baby. Babies can be carefree and spoiled, while wives have to lie down and get ‘moxibustion.'”

“Girl, your words are crude but the meaning is there. Your words are too crude! Miss Z and the streamer have a clean and innocent relationship! We all have our eyes on them!”

Mo Yingxue watched the commotion in the live stream, frowning slightly as she chewed on a peach juice fruit. She wondered what she should say.

Suddenly, she saw her own paid comment being pushed down by someone else.

Sakura: “The streamer is exactly my type. I must marry her. How many gifts do I have to send to be called ‘wife’? Is this enough? (Paid comment)”

Sakura: “Sent ‘Ten Thousand Lights’ X1”

It was so fast? Yue Lei’s live stream had already attracted the attention of other rich people.

A strange feeling rose in her heart, both sour and excited.

Mo Yingxue clenched her fists, holding back for a few moments.

She finally managed to tell herself that this was the affection and gifts that Yue Lei had earned from working hard.

She was so wonderful; she deserved everyone’s attention.

As she came to this realization, Mo Yingxue also felt a sense of relief, as if she could officially separate herself from Miss Z.

Z: “It’s enough, it’s enough. I also sent this last time. ^ ^ (Paid comment)”

Z: “I said, ‘say ‘wife’ and let me hear it.’ What do you want her to call you? Send another paid comment so CEO Yue can see it later. (Paid comment)”

When this comment came out, the viewers were all in an uproar.

“Miss Z is so generous! What a queenly gesture! She’s giving up her title to make her the empress!”

“Our Miss Z is so doting! This is what you call class!”

“Why is the streamer taking so long to change? We’re all family here. Change in front of the camera! And while you’re at it, check out the second wife Miss Z got for you!”

Sakura: “I get it. In this live stream, you can name yourself with a gift! Then call me Queen Sakura from now on. I like that more! (Paid comment)”
