"How's it going, handsome? Here's your layered fringe," Tony the barber said, holding scissors with a big smile, as if he was saying, "Man, my skills are awesomely good."

Su Qing looked at his bowl-cut in the mirror, clenched his fists tightly, veins popping on his biceps, staring hard at the barber, seriously wanting to punch him and show him what a fist like a sandbag feels like.

Hell no, he asked for layered fringe, yet you gave him a bowl-cut, who are you trying to fool?

"Are you sure this is the final product?" Su Qing said slowly, enunciating each word.

The Su Family has great genes, so naturally, he couldn't look bad, even a bit handsome, but now looking at himself in the mirror, he felt like a mix between a traitor and a weird cartoon character, so much so he wanted to call Li Zijun to report this, as it was simply a mental assault.

"Yeah, how about you get a perm, it'll look nice with a perm." Tony the barber smiled, maybe sensing Su Qing was on the verge of exploding, felt embarrassed and quickly changed his offer:

"Why not get a membership card, I'll give you a free perm?"

After all, Su Qing was a sunny, charming guy when he came in, but now his looks have seriously dropped, even Tony with his thick skin can see that.

To this, Su Qing took a deep breath and said expressionlessly, "Let's wait till tomorrow, I'll bring a friend over, you should bring more of something too."

With that said, Su Qing went straight to pay and left with Big Yellow, truly, no guy can leave a barber shop with a smile, it's an absolute truth.

Tony the barber, hearing this, was also full of awkwardness, dryly replied, "Hope to see you again."

"If I come here again, I'm a freaking dog!"

Big Yellow: "Woof woof!" [Yes, if Su Qing comes again, he's me!]

Tony the barber: ...

Su Qing was speechless at this point, came in originally fine, didn't expect to leave with a bowl-cut, had he known how shady this barber shop is, he wouldn't have walked in to humiliate himself.

Half an hour later, on a park bench.

"Hahaha, Qingzi, your hairstyle is really... really sick, hahaha," Wang Xing pointed at his new haircut laughing so hard he almost couldn't breathe.

"Your hairstyle is sick, do you even know how to talk?" Su Qing glared at him, then continued, "Why, isn't it a weekend, shouldn't you be home with your girlfriend?"

"It's fine, she is out for an interview today, said she can't rely on me alone to work, so I have some free time," Wang Xing chuckled and waved his hand, but each time he saw Su Qing's new haircut, he couldn't help it.

[The king of suck-ups is back on his old path, Jiang Mengting wasn't really at an interview, she went to meet a netizen, the queen's big fishing pond rebuilding project has begun]

Su Qing was the tall and thin type, his skin was fair and he was pretty neat, whereas Wang Xing was a bit plain, though he was also tall and strong, his looks were nothing exceptional, this time he caught Su Qing's weak spot, if he didn't make fun of it, he'd be doing himself a disservice.

Listening to the narration in his mind, Su Qing gazed at Wang Xing with a hint of pity, this poor kid, he didn't realize what he was facing, yet he was laughing at him.

He merely resembled a bowl-cut, while Wang Xing was about to change colors.

Though, he had anticipated this outcome, it's up to Wang Xing if he can figure it out eventually.

Besides, he always thought Wang Xing looked like a shameless suck-up, but he knew better, especially after the last disappointment.

"Alright, got no plans, accompany me to the pet shop," Su Qing said, getting up in a bad mood.

Hearing that, Wang Xing was taken aback, "Why do you want to go to the pet shop?"

"To get its hair cut," Su Qing pointed at Big Yellow beside him.

To this, Wang Xing burst out laughing again, "Why go to a pet shop, just take it where you had your hair cut, let him do Big Yellow too, I want to see if Tony can give Big Yellow a bowl-cut."

Big Yellow: "Woof woof woof, woof!" [I told you, if you go to that barber shop again, I'm the dog, who are you cussing out, buddy!]

But Wang Xing didn't understand dog language, rubbed Big Yellow's head and said, "See, Big Yellow agrees with me."

Hearing this, Su Qing sneered, "Of course, no wonder you have two arms."

Twenty minutes later, the two and the dog arrived at a pet grooming store, greeted by a young lady.

"Boss, how much is it to trim the dog's fur?"

The woman glanced at Big Yellow, then said calmly, "100."

At this, the two were taken aback, Su Qing directly asked, "Really, boss? My haircut is twenty, why is his so expensive?"

With that, he showcased his newly trimmed bowl-cut.

In response, the woman casually stood up, chewing gum, walked over to Big Yellow and ruffled his head with a smile, "Big dogs aren't only expensive to groom, bathing, deworming, none of it's cheap. Plus, dogs eat poop, would you dare?"

Hearing this, both were instantly indignant, felt like dogs were moodier than humans nowadays, Su Qing wanted to check prices elsewhere, but Wang Xing was suddenly fired up, stubbornly asked, "What if I dare?"

At this, the woman was also caught off guard, first time meeting such a tough guy willing to eat poop over some grooming money and replied, "Then your haircut costs 100 from now on."

"Pfft."

With that, Su Qing couldn't hold it, burst out laughing, Tony the barber had messed up his mood, yet now it was much better and chuckled:

"Go on, eat, eat up and your value will soar five times, you'll be the next internet sensation."

Wang Xing was stunned by the sudden twist, instantly fell silent.

In a good mood, Su Qing decided this was the place, the boss was so fun, naturally he had to support the business.

Soon he spent two hundred bucks for a full grooming session for Big Yellow, including a bath and haircut, the young lady even gave him a little discount.

Just one afternoon, he spent 220, gotta say, keeping dogs is expensive.

After enjoying the grooming session, Big Yellow's fur was extra fluffy, he even smelled faintly of plants.

"Damn, now I realize what it means to be worse off than a dog, the two of us could get haircuts and baths for less than 200, today's pets indeed make good money,"

Upstairs in the living room, Wang Xing sat on the couch looking unsatisfied.

"Come on, what are you comparing with dogs for, so what, would you really eat poop? If you dare, I'll pay another 200," Su Qing opened the fridge, tossed a can of cola over and laughed.

Sss~~

Swig swig swig~~~ belch~~

"Nonsense, forget 200, even two thousand doesn't matter, us educated folks have dignity, alright? But as for you, your dignity was bought by Aunt Shen, what's with saying wealth can't diminish integrity?" Wang Xing had always held a grudge for not joining Shen Yi's company.

Looking at Su Qing, now gaining ground, literally rising all around, even Big Yellow had a monthly salary of eighteen thousand, the thought made him envious.

Regarding Shen Yi's company, Su Qing was already tired of explaining, even his mom didn't believe, let alone others, so he said, "Wealth can't diminish integrity? If not, why do I need wealth!"

Wang Xing: ...

For some reason, he found it quite reasonable.

Exactly, if integrity can't be undermined, then what's the use of wealth, might as well not have it.

"Alright, how's your new job treating you, adjusted yet?"

"Not bad, mostly business dealings every day, my position's work hours are highly flexible, seems like an early 8 to 5 job with weekends off, but ready to work anytime in reality, though the department's competitive pressure's kind of intense, tough stuff."

Talking about work, Wang Xing also went silent, clearly stepping out of the comfort zone wasn't all smooth sailing.

"Speaking of which, half a month later... never mind, let's talk about you, what's it like working at Aunt Shen's company?" Wang Xing hesitated but quickly changed the subject.

"Not bad, just loafing around every day, no big deal, a monthly salary of eighteen thousand, pays even while laying low."

"Crap, you're truly despicable, this is more painful than killing me~~"
