I Have Awesome Luck

Chapter 11

110% Luck

Chen Shuping was shocked by such an obedient Li Muyao. She remembered when she refused to let Li Muyao take leave a few days ago, Li Muyao immediately threatened her with her fists. Only then did Chen Shuping allow it and sign the leave approval for her. Before Li Muyao left, she continued to threaten Chen Shuping, asking Chen Shuping not to give her any more chores.

If not, Li Muyao would really beat her teacher, Chen Shuping, up.

Chen Shuping stood there, then took two steps forward and stopped again. Which part of Li Muyao was different today?

After pondering for a while, Chen Shuping finally realized that Li Muyao didn’t put on the makeup that could scare ghosts to death today and she also tied up her Korean punk hairstyle.

Li Muyao looked much cleaner and neater.

Even the disgust she originally felt towards Li Muyao also reduced at that moment.

Had she become the legendary “sight for sore eyes”?

Li Muyao didn’t know that Chen Shuping, who had always disliked her, became less disgusted by her because of her sudden changes.

If she knew, she would have smiled and said confidently, “That’s a must. Look at my face. I’m a total beauty! There are face-judgers in any era, let alone in the beauty industry, and they’re naturally attracted to beautiful things.”

She first cleaned all the private beauty rooms, then stood next to Chen Shuping to be her assistant with Wu Lanqi as they had a forty-minute facial technique class at the same time.

“Alright, that’s it for today’s class. Try to practice on each other’s faces. When you practice ten, twenty times, your techniques will almost be proficient.”

Chen Shuping talked about much more professional cosmetology knowledge today than she usually would and her attitude also became better because of Li Muyao’s clean, innocent and pretty face.

When Li Muyao and Wu Lanqi entered the apprentice practice room, Wu Lanqi filled a small basin with warm water as she talked to Li Muyao who was laying bed sheets.

“Miss Chen seems to be in a pretty good mood today. She didn’t shout at you or scold you.

“Muyao, do you think Miss Chen’s boyfriend proposed to her?

“After all, Miss Chen and her boyfriend have been together for eight years. If they don’t get married, I don’t think Miss Chen will ever be able to.”

Chen Shuping was getting married?

That was impossible!

Li Muyao had been an apprentice for three years in her last life. When she left, Chen Shuping still hadn’t got married to her boyfriend.

The exact reason was unknown!

“She didn’t shout at me or scold me because I answered all her questions. As for her and her boyfriend? Sister Lanqi, I suggest you not gossip about it.

“We both know Miss Chen’s temper.”

Petty, holds grudges against people and she can’t bear to hear any bad comments about her from the apprentices.

“Alright, Sister Lanqi, lie down. Let me help you do a facial.”

It had been many many years since Li Muyao did a facial for someone.

But right here, Li Muyao was still a new apprentice who had been learning for a bit more than six months.

“Okay, we can memorize a few main points Miss Chen said just now as we do it.”

Beautician apprentices were the same as medical students. Everything must be put into practice and they had to repeat doing them on each other’s faces countless times, memorizing all parts of the face, the exact position of acupuncture points and techniques. Different areas all required a different degree of strength in their hands.

When Li Muyao first started doing it, she was still a bit unfamiliar. However, in less than a minute, she had got her touch back. Skills like this would be remembered for a lifetime once learned, not to mention Li Muyao had relied on it to make a living for more than a decade. How would she forget?

Those were basically memories that had imprinted on her bones, so she could do those things well even if she closed her eyes.

“Oh God, Muyao, did you sneak out to see some master in the last few days when you were on leave? Your technique, your strength, your precision, it’s even more comfortable than when Miss Chen massaged my face.

“Compared to how you did it before your leave, it’s totally like heaven and earth!”

That was too surprising!

Li Muyao couldn’t blame Wu Lanqi for being so shocked. Both of them were beautician apprentices that came to the salon at the same period. Things they did and classes they took were exactly the same and their education levels were also similar. They should be people on the same starting line. Why had Li Muyao suddenly run to the finishing point without her?

While she was shocked, she also felt a bit sad and jealous at the same time.

“It’s not that different. I only went to a large beauty salon secretly to experience it a few times.”

Li Muyao certainly wouldn’t tell Wu Lanqi she was a soul of a senior beautician manager from the future?

After all, nobody knew where she went in the last few days when she was on leave, except for Color Hair.

So, Li Muyao must make up a reasonable explanation to account for her proficient beauty techniques and increase in cosmetology knowledge.

“A few times? Experience in a large beauty salon? Isn’t that expensive?”

The large beauty salons were much more expensive than Wanhua Beauty Department, where Li Muyao was working at. Of course, their services were more professional and there wouldn’t be apprentices serving customers at all.

At Wanhua Beauty Salon, apprentices also had to help when the shop was too busy.

“Yeah, I spent all the money I saved in the last few months, but it turned out pretty great!”

Wu Lanqi knew she wouldn’t be willing to spend a few months of salary to go to other beauty salons to experience the techniques of other beauticians. After all, apprentices only got a small amount of salary and it was better to use as little money as they could.

After that, maybe Wu Lanqi was too tired or enjoying it too much. She didn’t ask Li Muyao any more questions.

Li Muyao wanted to tell Wu Lanqi more about it and to take the opportunity to teach Wu Lanqi some cosmetology knowledge naturally in the form of a discussion, but Wu Lanqi didn’t want to. Li Muyao also didn’t say anything else. She only did a very complete facial treatment for Wu Lanqi quietly.

When Li Muyao finished everything, Color Hair came from downstairs, “Sister Yao, quickly go to the Hairdressing Department. We have too many customers right now, but two shampoo girls are on leave today.”

“Tony asked me to come and get you!”

Hearing the name Tony, Li Muyao chuckled.

This wasn’t a meme on the Internet in her last life, but the senior hairdressers in many hair salons were really called Tony.

The manager of the Wanhua Hairdressing Department on the first floor was Tony and their deputy manager was Denis. They had a really high hairdressing level and charged much higher than normal hairdressers. Normal hairdressers only charged 15 yuan for shampooing, haircutting, and styling. And yet, Tony and Denis could charge 35 yuan for drying and styling, excluding shampooing, and at least 50 yuan for haircutting.

If customers wanted Tony or Denis specifically to dye their hair or redesign a hairstyle, the price would get even higher.

“Sister Yao, is it something I said? Why are you laughing? Or is it because of what I’m wearing today?”

Color Hair looked at the pure pretty girl in front of him. Seeing her smile so adorably at him, he inexplicably felt tickles in his nose.
