Ding-ling!
The sound of Perfect Hair Salon's little bell rang as the door was opened. Without any reservation, Ying Yue entered and wanted to find herself a seat to laze around but all the waiting seats were taken.
" Uncle is as busy as ever... " Ying Yue thought as her gaze swept around the packed room.
Seeing a familiar pretty face, a few regular clients greeted Ying Yue as they very fond of her and they knew that Ying Fan cherished her a lot.
" Good day, Ying Yue, you are as pretty as ever! " an old man said smiling to the young girl.
"Good day to you too Mister Kim and thank you even though I already knew because you already said it a hundred times over! " Ying Yue giggled like a child, very happy to see a familiar face.
" You cheeky girl! " M.Kim cracked a smile
" Here to get a summer haircut? " Ying Yue asked.
" Yes, but it seems I will have to wait a bit longer before getting it. Your uncle is so popular that customers keep walking in endlessly. " the old man answered.
" Hahaha!" Ying Yue laughed as she tied her hair in a ponytail, " If you don't want to wait, want to let me do it? "
" Huh? You want to cut my hair? " the old man exclaimed in surprise, " Didn't you always say you have no time? "
" Yup! But I skipped school a little so I should have a bit of time to help my uncle out! " Ying Yue said as she finished her ponytail and looked at the two overworked assistants and her uncle running around, so much that he didn't see her enter.
" Great then! It's been so long since you worked your magic on my hair! " M.Kim happily accepted and followed Ying Yue to a dresser chair.
Finally entering her uncle's field of vision, Ying Fan remarked his niece's presence and checked his watch.
" Yue? What are you doing here? Shouldn't you be at school? " Ying Fan asked as he continued to skillfully trim a woman's hair.
" Someone poured a bottle of water on my face and my mask was sliding off so I had to run away. " Ying Yue casually said before dropping off her things and taking an apron to wear.
" Hahaha! You really know how to attract trouble, do you? " Ying Fan laughed at his niece.
" Just the usual I guess! " Ying Yue indicated M. Kim to sit before preparing her tools and washing her hands.
" You are going to cut his hair? " Ying Fan surprisingly asked, " When was the last time you touched a pair of scissors? "
" Don't worry, if I'm not at least near your level, I definitely surpassed it! " Ying Yue said confidently as she put a cover underneath M. Kim's neck.
" You arrogant brat! If you are that good then why don't you just help every day? " Ying Fan complained.
Ying Yue sighed, " Uncle, my skills are golden for a reason. If you find gold every day, then could this even be considered gold anymore? "
" Enough talking just get to it already! " Ying Fan couldn't refute his cunning niece so he just rushed her.
" Yes! " Ying Yue answered cutely before using a spray to humidify M. Kim's hair, easing the cutting process.
" What kind of hairstyle you want M.Kim? " Ying Yue asked.
" I wanted to go for the usual but as I am in your hands, I'll leave the decision to you! " M. Kim happily said.
" Ok! Just leave it to me! " Ying Yue smiled before jumping into serious mode and trimming his hair like an expert.
Not long after, Ying Yue finished M. Kim's hair, who was very satisfied and moved on to other customers.
Finally, at four o'clock, the shop closed and she helped her uncle clean up before preparing dinner for both of them.
" Yue? " Ying Fan called his niece.
" Hmm? " Ying Yue answered absent-mindedly as she skillfully chopped the vegetables.
" Make enough for one more portion, we have a guest. " Ying Fan said as he swept the floor.
" A guest? it's been ages since we had one. Who is it? " Ying Yue asked as she opened the heat and installed the pan on the stove.
" Your boyfriend. " Ying Fan nonchalantly said.
" Ahhh! My boyfriend...right...-Wait! What? - What did you just say? You invited my boyfriend?!?! " Ying Yue's slow brain suddenly caught up and she jumped in surprise, almost dropping the bottle of olive oil she had in her hands.
" Hmm. He wanted to visit you today but you were still at school so he went away and at the same time I invited him to dine with us..." Ying Fan casually said as he finished sweeping and went to wash his hands.
" Ohhhhh... I see, I totally understand! If I didn't know you, I would have thought that you wanted to embarrass me and make me go to hell! " Ying Yue commented sarcastically while shuffling the food in the pan.
" Then you don't know me well! " Ying Fan laughed.
" So much for privacy but I get none! " Ying Yue sighed as she handled a second pan.
" I actually quite like him! When I told him that you were at school, I could see his lip twitching, trying very hard not to laugh! " Ying Fan chuckled loudly.
" Oh gosh...This is going to be so awkward..." Ying Yue said exasperatedly.
" I look forward to it! " Ying Fan widely smiled.
Ying Yue didn't answer and shot him a deadly glare, signalling him to stop provoking her.
" I'm doing this for your own good! Either way, at this rate you'll never get married! " Ying Fan defended himself.
" And whose fault did you think it was? " Ying Yue sighed.
" My instincts! "
" Oh great! How about I cut those members of yours that react to your ' instincts ' ?" Ying Yue evilly laughed.
" Hmm, no thank you..."
" No, thank you? Sure! No food for you tonight! Not even your favourite tomato eggs!" Ying Yue threatened.
" No food?! Yue, my wonderful niece, I will be the most obedient and good uncle in my whole entire life! " Ying Fan immediately ran up to Ying Yue and played nice.
" Hmm, good boy! Now go place the table!" Ying Yue smiled satisfied as she finally finished the food in the pan and cleanly put them on plates.
Opening the oven, Ying Yue took out the perfectly cooked fishes and marinated it in pineapple sauce before deposing onto the table.
"I'm such a great cook! " Ying Yue shamelessly praised herself.
Just as she finished cooking, the doorbell rung and Ying Yue went to open the door.
" Good evening Stella. " Jun Feng's lip curled into a soft smile, a small one but a sweet one, filled with adoration.
" Hello, Noah! " Ying Yue also sweetly smiled to her newly acquired lover.
Seeing her smile, caused Jun Feng to lose control of his heart which instantly started running a marathon, beating at a phenomenal speed. He naturally entered and pulled his little devil into his embrace burying his head in her neck, inhaling her gentle smell.
" I missed you. " Jun Feng lightly whispered.
" Hmm...Me too" Ying Yue's cheeks and ears blushed pink.
Thinking back, she really did not have an easy day and was surrounded by troublesome people while getting herself in awkward situations but weirdly, being in Jun Feng's embrace, made her tiredness go away, finding her body light again.
As for Jun Feng, the headache he had while dealing with his group that didn't listen to him and ruined his plan slowly faded away as he kept his treasure in his arms, feeling a soothing warmth wash over his tense body.
' Is this the power of love? '
They both wondered.
