230% Luck

“Hi, Li Muyao. I’m here for a facial. Are you available now? My face suddenly has a lot of acne. Can you clear them for me?”

It wasn’t just anyone who came. It was that kind, pretty girl, Yang Xin, whom Li Muyao met in the public toilet at the night market the first day she was reborn.

Li Muyao was a bit shocked. After all, she was just trying to find herself new customers out of habit.

Yang Xin really took it seriously and came to the salon to ask Li Muyao to help her do a facial.

“She’s available!”

Chen Shuping replied quickly. Manager Cai told her that the next three months would be her probation period as the Deputy Manager. If she had great performances and managed the salon well to get higher turnovers and more customers, she would definitely be able to become the manager.

So, before Manager Cai and Li Muyao reacted and spoke, Chen Shuping had already agreed to the request and arranged everything for Li Muyao. “Muyao, take this beautiful lady to Room 7.”

“Now that you’re already a beautician, do it well. We trust your ability.”

Chen Shuping intentionally left out the word “trainee.” She was worried that the customer would have a bad impression of Li Muyao after hearing that word.

Manager Cai had so much confidence in Li Muyao, so Chen Shuping must establish a good relationship with Li Muyao, no matter how much she hated her.

The first step for a closer relationship was certainly to get more customers for Li Muyao. Then, Li Muyao’s salary and bonus would increase. When she got more money, she would have a better attitude towards her teacher, Chen Shuping. Then, there would be a greater chance that Li Muyao would say something good about Chen Shuping in front of Manager Cai.

Li Muyao had no idea the appearance of Yang Xin would make Chen Shuping think so much.

Even if she knew, she would just smile indifferently.

“Alright, Manager Cai, I’ll get to work first.”

Li Muyao took Yang Xin directly to Room 7. Room 7 to Room 10 were all VIP rooms with a single bed, while Room 1 to Room 6 had two beds or three beds.

Customers from Room 7 onwards all spent more than a hundred thousand yuan, which was why they were regarded as VIP customers.

Since Manager Cai was still here and Li Muyao was a newly-promoted beautician trainee Manager Cai trusted, Chen Shuping hoped that Li Muyao could turn a new customer like Yang Xin into an official major customer who was willing to spend money. Of course, at the same time, Chen Shuping also wanted to see and test if Li Muyao’s capability was truly that strong like Manager Cai said.

When Li Muyao led Yang Xin into Room 7, she went up and took Yang Xin’s bag. “Let me put your bag on the counter. Pretty sister, would you like some water, drinks, or tea?”

“Oh? There are even drinks and tea? Do you have Sprite? I thought you didn’t remember me. Hehe!”

Indeed, when Yang Xin saw Li Muyao’s expression when they met, she went silent for a few seconds and thought Li Muyao had forgotten her, which made her feel a bit embarrassed and hesitant immediately. Luckily, Li Muyao was still the friendly, passionate, and cute little girl that she first met.

“How would I forget you? I still remember your name’s Yang Xin. I remember.”

“It’s just that my manager and teacher were here, so I couldn’t really talk to you. Lie down for a while first. I’ll go get you a cup of Sprite. Do you want it cold or at room temperature?”

Li Muyao explained.

“Looks like you have a good memory. I want an iced Sprite, thank you!” Yang Xin had also been to beauty salons before, but she didn’t go often. She came to Wanhua only because of Li Muyao’s makeup skills.

Li Muyao soon came in with a cup of Sprite with two ice cubes and gave it to Yang Xin, who was sitting on the bed.

When Yang Xin finished the Sprite, Li Muyao was also prepared. After Yang Xin laid down and wrapped her hair, Li Muyao started chatting with Yang Xin in a gentle voice.

“Sister, do you usually do skincare at home?”

This was the first question a beautician asked every new customer to get to know more about her.

“Not really. I only remove my makeup, then spray some toner and put on some cream, just the simple things. Is my skin very dry?

“Do you feel the acne on my forehead?

“They suddenly came out two days ago. I’ve never had such things in the past. They’re really annoying. I can’t even cover them with a concealer!

“Do you know why I have acne?”

Under Li Muyao’s facial techniques, Yang Xin answered every question Li Muyao asked comfortably and relaxingly.

“There are a lot of reasons for getting acne, including endocrine disorder, strong secretion of male hormones, sebum metabolism disorders, poor blood circulation, and pathogenic infections. Other causes may include too much stress, anxiety, lack of sleep, staying up late, eating oily or spicy food, smoking and drinking. These can all cause acne to grow suddenly.

“Also, there are obviously very heavy dark circles around your eyes. You must have slept less recently, right?”

After Li Muyao removed Yang Xin’s makeup, she cleansed Yang Xin’s face and started applying facial massage cream on it.

“Yes, I’ll be honest with you. After we met in the public toilet last time, I went to beat my best friend and my boyfriend up. Then, I found my team leader and told him that the two of them stole products from the factory secretly in the past to earn extra money.

“That scumbag and the bitch were both fired by the factory right away!

“How pleasing!

“However, after feeling thrilled, I was still sad.

“I don’t know if you’ve been through a breakup or not. Anyway, even after I took revenge on that shameless couple, I still felt hurt.

“I went to the bar to drink every night after work, but still couldn’t sleep and could only fall asleep almost at dawn every day.

“If it wasn’t that I started having acne on my forehead affecting my appearance, I might still be asleep.

“I remember you said that women can live without men, but we can’t live without a beautiful look!”

Li Muyao indeed said this to Yang Xin back then, “Women can live without men, but we can’t live without a beautiful look. When a woman has a pretty appearance, she’ll be able to find all types of men!”

Yang Xin indeed caught her scumbag ex-boyfriend’s attention that night with the makeup Li Muyao did for her. He said that he only loved Yang Xin and that her best friend was the one who seduced him. He just did the wrong thing because he had no choice and he wanted to get back together with Yang Xin. She made that scumbag say something so shameless by just putting on new makeup.

So, Yang Xin certainly believed every single word Li Muyao, this stranger, said and even thought Li Muyao was right as she continued thinking about it.

After all, humans judged others through visual appearance.

People stared at pretty things longer. So, when a man saw a gorgeous woman, he wouldn’t even blink an eye!

After becoming beautiful, men would show up by just crooking a finger.

What happened to Yang Xin in the bar the last few days proved what Li Muyao said was completely correct.

“You’re right. It’s not necessary to make yourself suffer because of the scumbag and the b*tch. Pretty sister, your skin is a bit dry. I’ll give you a facial massage with some moisturizing and whitening products.”

“If you think the result of today’s facial is good, I suggest you come again several times more and you’ll be able to get a beauty card. After getting beauty treatments and sticking to the skincare procedure for a long time, your skin will become better. It will not look dry in the future and will return to a moisturized, smooth condition.”

“From now on, your makeup will not crease or become cakey anymore even if you do makeup every day. You won’t have things like acne as well.”

“Also, after getting the beauty card, I can give you three makeup sessions for free!”
