Getting Her Hair Done (Just Getting Her Hair Done)

Liu Chang'an watched Bai Hui leave and continued drinking his tea. The tea wasn't particularly exquisite or worth savoring, but it was still above average. At least it tasted much better than Shangguan Dandan's effervescent tablets. Liu Chang'an suspected that Shangguan Dandan just liked the bubbling bubbles when the effervescent tablets were steeping, or perhaps the slightly sweet taste was what suited her taste.

So, she must really like drinking cola, Tianfu Cola, Fenhuang Cola, Future Cola, Laoshan Cola, and the like.

Oh, all those brands are gone.

After Liu Chang'an finished his tea and was about to leave, a girl dressed in a Lolita dress, carrying a bunny-bear bag (a standard accessory for Lolita girls), and wearing a golden wig finally mustered up the courage to walk over.

The girl had been looking this way for a while, which didn't surprise Liu Chang'an, since even Qian Ning's girlfriend knew him.

Liu Chang'an rarely paid attention to information about himself posted by others. He was quite famous in the South Hunan martial arts circle. Although he only fought once, he defeated the leader of the South Hunan martial arts circle at the time. In addition, given his various actions, it was not surprising that he had some fame.

After all, this is an age of endless boredom and entertainment to the point of death. Someone can become an internet sensation and the king of stale memes just because of a single sentence they uttered.

"Hello." The girl walked over, mustered her courage to greet him, her cheeks flushed.

Liu Chang'an nodded, but he doesn't usually give out his contact information easily.

"Excuse me, could you tell me the contact information of that girl from earlier?" The girl rubbed the rabbit ears of the bunny bear bag with her fingers, looking at Liu Chang'an nervously and expectantly. Her cute apple cheeks were a little stiff, and her eyes were watery and trembling. It seemed that she didn't often do things like striking up conversations for contact information.

Liu Chang'an picked up his teacup; it was empty.

The girl seemed a little too nervous; she actually snapped out of it, picked up the teapot from her table, and poured Liu Chang'an a full cup.

It almost overflowed! How much steady hand strength does it take to hold it and drink it so smoothly?

Liu Chang'an patted his face, not embarrassed at all, really.

"Wasn't she just here?" Liu Chang'an looked at the girl who acted like a weak little animal, as if she would silently turn away with tears in her eyes if he rejected her.

"I... I was gathering my courage... I never expected her to leave so suddenly."

That's an interesting explanation, so Liu Chang'an took out his phone and sent Bai Hui a message to ask her about it.

"Whatever!" Bai Hui replied quickly, but her tone was clearly angry.

Liu Chang'an then gave Bai Hui's contact information to the girl in front of him.

"Thank you, thank you." The girl, hugging the teddy bear, bowed and backed down, looking at her phone with a slightly shy smile.

People are always more willing to become friends with strangers who share common interests. The Lolita fashion community is actually quite large, and most girls who are interested in anime and manga culture have some understanding of Lolita fashion. Girls who like Hanfu or JK uniforms are even more likely to get into Lolita fashion sooner or later.

However, relatively speaking, it is still a niche market, and people in niche circles are even more enthusiastic about finding friends who share common interests. Bai Hui's attire and appearance are like a fairy in Liu Chang'an's eyes, but they are also like a fairy in the eyes of these girls.

It's absolutely true that girls know how to appreciate other girls better.

After all, they will appreciate each other's choice of lip color, contact lenses, mascara, foundation, and so on, as well as the whole outfit. They will compliment each other's cute little accessories, such as hair clips and bona fide items. Every detail they put their heart into, from head to toe, will be noticed and appreciated by equally lovely girls.

A date between girls is a more refined and elegant setting.

They often feel regret because their boyfriends only say things like, "Cute," or "Like the sun."

Is it wrong to be cute and like the sun? No, not at all. Men and women think differently. Anyone who forces their partner to agree with them is a complete jerk.

Liu Chang'an didn't drink the cup of tea the girl had just poured for him. He got up and left, and the shop manager ran over and gave him two small snacks packed in a cardboard box.

Liu Chang'an took it to Shangguan Dandan and Zhou Dongdong.

They were having a great time at the children's play center. Zhou Dongdong slid down the tall slide, and Shangguan Dandan was below to catch her. However, Shangguan Dandan lost her balance on the bubble balls on the ground, and the two of them tumbled together.

"She's really overestimating herself. The way she rolled down from there was like the power of a human cannon." Liu Chang'an praised Zhou Dongdong's strength while looking down on Shangguan Dandan.

Zhou Dongdong was very happy to be praised.

Shangguan Dandan glanced at what Liu Chang'an was holding, tugged at Zhou Dongdong, and then the two of them stared at it together.

Liu Chang'an gave them the two snacks, and seeing that it was almost time, he went upstairs to find Zhou Shuling to go back together.

I stayed indoors for a while, and when I came out, it was surprisingly colder. The wind picked up on the street, and occasionally scraps of paper were blown up and scattered on the street.

"Brother Chang'an, I'm so cold, please hold me tight!" Zhou Dongdong hugged Liu Chang'an's leg.

Liu Chang'an then tucked her under his arm and took her back.

Shangguan Dandan was a little envious, but felt it was like being sold off. Anyway, she didn't feel cold about it. Besides, if she made such a request, he might not agree, since scenes of motherly love and filial piety are rare.

The temperature dropped by seven or eight degrees Celsius this time. When Liu Chang'an got up the next morning, he still went out for a run in shorts and a short-sleeved shirt. There were noticeably more envious glances at him on the street.

"Young people just have so much energy," Old Man Qian said.

So when Liu Chang'an returned, he put on long sleeves and trousers. The weather had been unpredictable and changeable in recent years, but for Liu Chang'an, the cold weather was not a problem. On the contrary, even with a refrigerator, the hot weather in summer made it inconvenient to preserve food, and the increased temperature would also change the way the lips and tongue could savor the flavors of food.

Liu Chang'an regrets that An Nuan bought so many stockings and ankle socks, and he probably won't be able to wear them all before he can admire them... But it's fine for her to wear them for him in private, so it's not a big problem.

On Friday, Liu Chang'an went to watch An Nuan's training camp. An Nuan was still a bit far from being selected for the school volleyball team, but she had already been successfully selected for the college volleyball team.

Although there is no chance of making the starting lineup yet, An Nuan is already satisfied. In real-world sports competitions, even in the lower-level teams, the competition is extremely fierce, with many Longevity participating. As a player who is mainly playing out of interest, there is no reason for her to be treated differently from the start.

Unless she can prove her ability, in team sports, if you can't get a starting position through connections, you'll only embarrass yourself on the field.

Liu Chang'an sat in the stands, just like in high school, watching An Nuan and the other girls train. But when she jumped, her long, flowing hair and bouncy legs always attracted more attention.

After the training camp ended, An Nuan washed her hands and face, then picked up her volleyball and went to find Liu Chang'an.

"I noticed you watched our captain practice her spikes several times!" An Nuan ran over and said coquettishly, showing that she was very shrewd and that no one could escape her sharp eyes.

"She plays better than you, what's wrong with me watching her play?" Liu Chang'an said matter-of-factly. "If she were prettier than you, I'd have to watch her several times before you got jealous... but who does that?"

An Nuan chuckled. She would feel obliged to be modest when others complimented her looks, but it was only natural for her boyfriend to praise her beauty.

"The coach told me to cut my hair shorter." An Nuan touched her hair with a hint of heartache and then got down to business.

"Just cut it then. It's too long now, not suitable for exercise. Didn't your mom say that your pigtails and you look like a bamboo pole with a pair of black stockings on top?" Professor Liu is Professor Liu after all, and his description is quite accurate. Girls as tall as An Nuan rarely wear pigtails, otherwise it's easy to end up looking like Professor Liu described.

"Ugh, you and my mom are talking bad about me together! Then you'll come with me to get a haircut." An Nuan made up her mind. Her hair wasn't this long in high school, and the requirements weren't this strict. But the teams in university are different. The competition between teams from different colleges is fierce. Her college is a large one with many talented people, and An Nuan wanted to cherish this opportunity.

Liu Chang'an nodded, but when he got there, he realized that his understanding of cutting hair and cutting a girl's hair were completely different things.

He thought An Nuan was just getting her hair cut short, which was just a matter of sitting there and snip-snip a few times with scissors, right?

As a result, the entire process of washing, cutting, and conditioning An Nuan's hair took three hours, while the actual haircut only took a few minutes.

She said three hours is considered fast.

Otherwise, why would girls like to invite their best friends to go to the hair salon together? Because it's hard to pass the time like that. So if you find that your girlfriend or wife often goes to the hair salon alone, it probably means... she's good at enduring loneliness.

Three hours passed, Liu Chang'an realized he was still too young and inexperienced. Girls in the past didn't need this much time to get their hair done... He thought of fashionable young women in the 80s and 90s, and it was probably from that time that their hair required more and more time to be styled.

"Your boyfriend is so nice," the stylist praised. Many men accompany their girlfriends to get their hair done, but most of them get bored after a while and leave, or find somewhere else to hang out. It's rare to see someone like Liu Chang'an sitting next to her, chatting and watching her.

"Yes, she's my favorite." An Nuan blushed slightly, but she never hid this fact.

Girls should be reserved and a little proud, but they also need to let him know how much they like him and how much they want to show him off. Why would Liu Chang'an be interested in guessing what you're thinking if you act all coy and hesitant?

The technician smiled, somewhat surprised by the girl's frankness.

After getting their hair done, Liu Chang'an and An Nuan went to eat on Xueyuan Street. Liu Chang'an casually mentioned, "I ran into Bai Hui at school a few days ago. She was promoting the comic convention, right? She gave me four tickets. Are you having training tomorrow? If you're not going, I'll go with some of my roommates."

An Nuan did know that Bai Hui was going to a comic convention as a guest over the weekend; she saw it on Bai Hui's social media profile. But was there anything suspicious or alarming about Bai Hui giving away tickets?

An Nuan clasped her hands together, her fingers resting on her chin, and began to ponder how to appear to trust Liu Chang'an, showing that she didn't take Bai Hui, that little vixen, seriously, while simultaneously preventing Bai Hui from using the opportunity to cause trouble and seriously injure An Nuan.
