Chapter 7

"Director Li, do you think this hairstyle is appropriate?" Tang Song’s face was very ugly.

Li Wen hurriedly explained, "Don't get excited, your hair quality is relatively soft, and you need to use hair mud or hair wax to assist, otherwise you won't see the effect. Handsome, go wash your hair first, and I’ll help you with the styling."

Hearing this, Tang Song felt slightly relieved, "Alright!"

After washing his hair, he returned to the VIP room.

First, he blew his hair dry, then applied some hair mud to the top of his head, used his hands to grab out the texture bit by bit, created a fluffy feeling, and finally used styling spray to set it.

The overall look was a bit like a perm, but compared to before, it looked much more pleasing to the eye, at least not ugly.

He opened the system interface and looked; his charm had recovered to 25.

Seeing Tang Song’s emotions stabilize, Li Wen said enthusiastically, "Your hair volume and hardness are indeed a bit lacking. To have an effect, you have to style it like this every day, which is very time-consuming.

I suggest you do a cushion perm directly, so the fluffiness can be maintained for a long time, which is easy and good-looking.

We have an event in the shop today, and I can give you a 20% discount on the price. If you combine it with hair dyeing, you can also enjoy…"

Before he finished speaking, Tang Song interrupted directly, "I have an urgent matter at noon, no time."

Li Wen smiled awkwardly, "Then wait until you have time to come back. Wait a moment, I’ll call the eyebrow trimmer over."

Tang Song nodded and didn't say anything more.

He had reason to suspect that this Tony knew from the beginning that his hair quality couldn't support this hairstyle.

The purpose was to arrange a perm and dye for him and make a big profit.

……

Zhao Yaqian was a beautician who had just entered the industry not long ago.

Because she had no experience and her eloquence was average, she finally found a job.

Including base salary, commission, and performance, it was about 4,000 a month.

Although it wasn't much, thanks to the convenience of her profession, she saved on skincare and cosmetics expenses.

This was also the bulk of her monthly expenditure.

She didn't expect that after being stable for less than half a year, her workplace would face the risk of bankruptcy due to poor management and capital rupture.

The boss also owed her two months of unpaid wages.

Sister Li, the beautician who brought her along, had already run away and found a new job.

As a newcomer, she instantly became the main force of the store, shouldering the beauty section of "Yizi Beauty Industry."

Recently, the store’s business had been getting worse and worse, and she had tried to submit many resumes, but unfortunately, she hadn't found a suitable one.

Thinking of this month’s credit card bill and the rent that was about to expire, Zhao Yaqian sighed.

She hoped the boss would keep his promise and pay the wages as soon as possible, giving her a buffer opportunity.

"Ding-dong—" The phone screen lit up.

[Director Li: "Yaqian, have you considered it? The treatment I promised before remains unchanged, monthly salary 15,000, including food and housing."]

Seeing the content of the message, Zhao Yaqian’s brows furrowed subconsciously.

This Director Li was a regular customer of their shop before, in his 30s, a very upright person.

He spoke gently and was also a leader of a large company.

Hearing that she was looking for a job, he tactfully indicated that he lacked an assistant by his side and hoped she would come and try.

At the beginning, Zhao Yaqian didn't react, thinking she had really met a noble person, and even showed off to her best friend, looking forward to entering a large company as a white-collar worker.

Later, under the reminder of her best friend, she asked about the job requirements and treatment.

Only then did she understand that the other party wanted to "keep" her, and what he valued was nothing more than her being young, beautiful, and having particularly long legs.

Looking at the WeChat message full of temptation, Zhao Yaqian bit her lip and replied seriously: "Sorry, Director Li, I am not suitable."

As soon as the message was sent, she heard Sister Lin’s shout downstairs: "Qianqian! There’s a customer in VIP Room 2 who wants to trim their eyebrows!"

Zhao Yaqian hurriedly got up, tidied her small suit, picked up her tool bag, and hurried over.

Pushing open the door, Zhao Yaqian showed a formulaic smile, "Hello, I am the beautician Qianqian in the shop, and I will trim your eyebrows next."

The customer opposite her was a boy in his 25s or 26s.

Out of professional habit, the first thing she observed was the other party’s skin condition.

It could be said to be very terrible.

A typical oily-skinned boy with no skincare knowledge or habits.

Dull skin, large pores, blackheads, acne, and quite a few pimples.

It was a potential big customer.

"Alright." Tang Song nodded and couldn't help but look at this beautician a few more times.

This should be the tallest girl he had ever come into contact with; her height looked about the same as his.

Her features were three-dimensional and beautiful, but there was no aggression, and she looked very comfortable.

Her body proportions were also very good, and the legs wrapped in black suit pants were exceptionally slender.

Zhao Yaqian seemed very familiar with such gazes, and the expression on her face didn't change at all.

Coming to Tang Song, she seriously observed his eyebrows.

"Brother, your eyebrows are quite thick, which means there are many messy hairs. I will first organize your eyebrow shape, and then I will trim each one individually to ensure you are satisfied."

"Thank you for your hard work."

"You are too polite, this is what I should do."

Zhao Yaqian said, took out small scissors, a small comb, and a blade from her tool bag, lowered her head, and began to operate.

The faint perfume mixed with body scent surged into his nasal cavity, making Tang Song’s heartbeat accelerate, and his gaze would involuntarily shift to the other party’s legs.

The thighs were full and fleshy, the calves slender and straight, typical "wine glass legs."

It made people’s blood boil.

He had only seen such beautiful legs on the internet.

However, those were all added with special effects; this was the first time he had seen such a real one.

The heart that had been hurt by Tony instantly healed quite a bit.

Just then, the system notification sound suddenly rang out.

"Ding! Congratulations, player, your Xiaohongshu account has over 100 followers, unlocking the achievement [Small Reputation], and obtaining the special item [Betting Agreement]."

Tang Song’s heart jumped.

This was the first achievement he had obtained, and there was also an item reward, absolutely extraordinary!

"Brother, don't move around!" Zhao Yaqian exclaimed and hurriedly put away the blade.

"Sorry! Sorry!" Tang Song hurriedly apologized; his emotions were too excited just now, and he couldn't control the expression on his face.

"Fortunately, you weren't hurt." Zhao Yaqian patted her chest, "Then I’ll continue, please be careful not to move around, if you feel uncomfortable, you can tell me directly."

"Alright!" Tang Song promised, closed his eyes, called up the light screen, and entered the system warehouse directly.

Immediately after, he saw the new item flashing with white light.

He checked the details.

[Betting Agreement]: After use, a betting event will be generated based on the player’s current environment and mindset.

"Betting event? What does that mean?"

After struggling for a long while, driven by strong curiosity, Tang Song couldn't hold back.

He selected [Betting Agreement] and used it immediately.
