"What did you just say?" Wei Lan seemed not to have heard Su Ke clearly. She tilted her head, frowned, and asked again..
"Uh, nothing, nothing!" Su Ke looked at Wei Lan and was relieved she hadn't heard him. He didn't know what had come over him, either. He'd just blurted it out—that was so unlike him!
Su Ke had always thought of himself as an honest, upright young man. Teasing girls was something he'd never do. What had just happened had to be his imagination.
Yeah, it had to be my imagination! Su Ke repeated to himself.
Wei Lan saw Su Ke's handsome face redden again and murmured softly, "Didn't you just say you wanted me to kiss you?"
"Huh? You heard that?" Su Ke froze, eyes wide with disbelief. He hadn't expected Wei Lan to stay calm. Instead, she was shyly staring at the road ahead.
"Then would you?" Su Ke asked weakly, as if possessed. The mission reward had gone to his head, and he was full of hope. He'd just been wondering how to complete the mission. Could this be his chance?
"Kiss you? In your dreams! Su Ke, you big pervert!" Wei Lan finally exploded. Her baby-faced cheeks puffed up in anger, and her dimples looked like two little trumpets against her shy blush as she shouted at him through clenched teeth. If she hadn't been riding her bike, she probably would've come over and kicked him a couple of times.
"Uh! If you don't want to kiss me, fine. Why get so mad? Getting worked up is bad for you. You'll get pimples, mess up your hormones, and throw off your period!" Su Ke was already quite familiar with Wei Lan, so he spoke more freely around her. Only after he'd finished did he realize he was in trouble.
The look in Wei Lan's eyes changed. Her small breasts, already taking shape beneath her white cotton T-shirt, rose and fell as she fumed. It looked like a volcano was about to erupt.
"Su Ke, stop right there!" Su Ke suddenly sped off, and Wei Lan chased after him, shouting as she pedaled. The pedestrians nearby jumped in surprise and all turned to look..
Su Ke sped straight to Fengze Residential Park and stopped beneath Wei Lan's building.
"Are you mad?" Su Ke asked, sheepishly scratching his head as he looked at Wei Lan's flushed little face.
"Hmph! Pervert!" Wei Lan glared at him and pouted. Her annoyed look was so bashful and charming that Su Ke found himself momentarily dazed.
"Uh, a kiss won't get you pregnant!" Su Ke didn't know why, but he rather enjoyed trading barbs with her, especially seeing her pout in annoyance.
Just as expected.
Wei Lan didn't disappoint. She kicked out at Su Ke's thigh.
"Haha, I'm off!" Su Ke moved fast. The instant her leg lifted, he was already making a getaway, and soon he'd vanished without a backward glance.
Su Ke headed straight to Fangfei Yiren Beauty Salon. It was his first day at work, and he couldn't help feeling nervous, especially since he'd have to face the beautiful boss, Luo Feiyan, who was just like a white-boned demon.
Standing at the entrance to Fangfei Yiren, Su Ke took a deep breath. Just as he was about to step inside, the Flower Picking System chimed again. He hurriedly checked and, sure enough, another mission had appeared beneath the mission to get Wei Lan's first kiss.
"Mission: Get a beautiful customer to hug you; Reward: 200 yuan."
"Damn!" Su Ke slapped his forehead. This mission was way too aggressive. He hadn't even met a customer yet, and already he was supposed to go looking for a hug. If he actually did that, he'd probably get fired. Luo Feiyan surely wouldn't let a pervert work as a pianist!
Su Ke took another deep breath and straightened himself up in the glass door. Reflected in it, he saw his neat short hair, clear, dark eyes, white T-shirt, and straight-leg jeans, all giving him a youthful, lively look.
"How did I never notice before? I'm actually this handsome!" Su Ke muttered to himself, then pushed open the glass door of Fangfei Yiren and went inside.
Lin Xiaobai was still wearing her silver business suit, which showed off her figure to perfection. When she saw Su Ke enter, she stood up at once, a smile at the corner of her mouth. "Su Ke, congratulations on becoming part of Fangfei Yiren!"
As she spoke, Lin Xiaobai held out her hand to Su Ke.
Her slender fingers were soft as silk, though a little cool and smooth. They felt lovely in his hand, but Su Ke didn't dare take liberties with Lin Xiaobai in this situation. He smiled brightly. "I have you to thank for giving me this opportunity, Sister Xiaobai!"
"You're such a smooth talker. I didn't even help you with anything. Hurry upstairs. The boss is on the third floor!" Lin Xiaobai pointed toward the stairs and said softly, "But you should prepare yourself!"
Su Ke didn't understand what Lin Xiaobai meant, but he heard bursts of giggling from upstairs, along with chattering, as if a group of women were playing around.
The first two times Su Ke had come by, he'd happened to arrive around mealtime, so there had been almost no customers in the salon. But now it was different. At seven thirty, the beauty treatments were in full swing.
The busiest time for beauty treatments was actually from four in the afternoon until eight at night. That was when the body's microcirculation gradually increased, oxygen levels in the blood rose, and the heart and lungs worked especially well, allowing the body to absorb nutrients fully. But most people were busy between four and six, so seven to nine had become the prime time for beauty salons.
"Ladies, look who's here!" Su Ke had barely shown his face when the beautiful boss, Luo Feiyan, spotted him. The seductress jumped off the sofa, clapped her hands, and immediately drew everyone's attention to him.
"Ooh! A handsome young man!"
"What a pretty boy!"
"So this is the little darling Sister Yan keeps?"
Su Ke had never seen anything like this. There were six or seven women in the VIP customer lounge on the third floor, sitting on sofas and chatting with face masks on. Now, at Luo Feiyan's urging, they all stood up and turned toward Su Ke in a rush.
"Uh!" Su Ke felt his legs go weak. Had he walked into the Spider Cave? It was full of demons! Though their faces were covered by masks, every one of them had a great figure, with curves in all the right places. His heart pounded as he stared, and his vision began to blur.
By the time Su Ke came to his senses, a woman wearing a face mask had grabbed him at the top of the stairs and pulled him into the circle of women wearing masks.
"Little cutie, come give your big sister a hug!"
"I want a loving hug too!"
"Sister Yan, you don't mind, do you? I want to hug him too!"
Su Ke felt like crying. He really wanted to tell these women off. They were so shameless! They'd pulled him into their arms without even asking his permission—and they weren't even sincere about it. They held him for such a short time that just as he was getting into it, he was passed into someone else's arms.
But then the Flower Picking System chimed suddenly. Su Ke checked it and was overjoyed.
"Mission: Get a beautiful customer to hug you once (Complete); Reward: 200 yuan."
"Claim reward!"
"Mission: Get a beautiful customer to hug you twice (Complete); Reward: 200 yuan."
"Claim reward!"
