Derailment Episode 12 Recap
> Derailment Recap
Jiang Bo considered it unrealistic to become a makeup artist in just two weeks and dismissed the inquiries from Qi Lian and the boss. Qi Lian, the only son of General Qi, was the target of cooperation for Mr. Cai. However, since Jiang Bo insisted otherwise, Mr. Cai was unwilling to continue. Qi Lian, determined not to stop, wanted those undergoing training to see results. Mr. Cai eventually agreed to arrange a final graduation assessment. If everyone passed, the project could continue.
Jiang Xiaoyuan overheard their conversation and quickly discussed it with everyone, encouraging them to practice together and pass the graduation assessment. After two weeks of classes, the graduation assessment arrived. It was a simple task: complete a basic full-face makeup within forty-five minutes, each person with a unique theme. However, the questions exceeded the scope, causing some panic. Jiang Xiaoyuan, undeterred, finished her makeup within thirty minutes and then proceeded to guide others. The judges were somewhat displeased, but their rules didn't explicitly prohibit mutual assistance, and Jiang Xiaoyuan hadn't done the makeup herself.
After the assessment, Jiang Bo announced that eleven people had achieved passing grades, while the remaining person had assisted others, violating the rules. However, Jiang Bo acknowledged Jiang Xiaoyuan's outstanding performance, granting her a pass. Thanks to Jiang Xiaoyuan's efforts, the trial opportunity for the new business was secured. Chen Fangzhou was proud, though Jiang Xiaoyuan didn't believe Qi Lian specifically wrote the recommendation for her; perhaps the original Jiang Xiaoyuan also liked makeup? During a photo shoot, there was a small incident: Jiang Xiaoyuan accidentally fell, leaving a lipstick mark on Qi Lian's face.
Jiang Xiaoyuan and Jiang Bo expressed gratitude. Jiang Xiaoyuan admitted she had learned a lot from Jiang Bo. In the afternoon, as they were about to return to Luoshan City, Qi Lian took Jiang Xiaoyuan to the ice cream truck by the river she had mentioned. Jiang Xiaoyuan tasted the flavors of her childhood, feeling elated. She took pictures with Qi Lian to commemorate the moment, realizing that despite her initial dislike for this life, she couldn't bear to part with her friends here. When she went to develop the photos, she returned to find Qi Lian gone and received a message saying he had something to attend to. Unaware that Qi Lian had been watching her from a distance, she was perplexed. Qi Lian, conflicted and fearful, knew that Jiang Xiaoyuan was no longer the same person.
Jiang Xiaoyuan became the chief beauty and styling artist, sparking dissatisfaction from Helen. Jiang Xiaoyuan set a challenging goal: she would be responsible for the beauty KPI in the store, aiming for a monthly performance of ten thousand. Chen Fangzhou thought Jiang Xiaoyuan was surely crazy, and through his analysis, Jiang Xiaoyuan realized she had acted impulsively but had to stick to her decision.
Qi Lian visited Director Zhong, who sensed something strange. Although unaware of Qi Lian's investigation, Director Zhong was reluctant to get involved. Qi Lian didn't reveal much but noticed a listening device under Director Zhong's bed as he left. Qi Lian quickly focused on investigating Director Zhong's student, Huo Baiyu, discovering he was Jiang Xiaoyuan's boyfriend from university and had left Chongqing early that morning.
