Suddenly, a creak sounded as the door opened.
Sheng Jiaoyang was right in the middle of wiping his hair dry in the bathroom and was shocked. Leaning his body outside the bathroom, he saw Xu Qing enter through the front door.
“Mother is it you?, how come you've gone home?” Wouldn't he be working? It wasn't even 4pm yet, and when Xu Qing left, it was already almost 1pm. It takes about two hours to travel back and forth.
When Xu Qing heard her daughter's voice, a stern expression quickly disappeared from her face, and she forced a smile as she replied, "Boss return us earlier today."
"Oh," Sheng Jiaoyang involuntarily said as he continued to dry his hair.
In order for bisamandi not to be easy for him because after searching around in the narrow kitchen for a while, he finally managed to find an electric kettle to boil water.
However, the most terrifying part was that after he finished bathing, he discovered that Xu Jiaojiao did not have any skin care products!
“Jiaojiao, did you not eat this lunch?” It was at this moment that Xu Qing noticed that the food arranged on the table had not been touched.
Sheng Jiaoyang hung a towel on the wall, and as he left the bathroom with his bangs still damp, he casually said, "Again no appetite."
Xu Qing stared blankly at Sheng Jiaoyang, feeling that the princess who was currently standing in front of him was somewhat different from the princess he had left behind when he went to work. Observing her daughter, she suddenly noticed the clothes on her daughter's body. "Your body…"
"I just modified some old clothes." Sheng Jiaoyang pointed to the piece of material on the bedside floor.
Oh, true! Sheng Jiaoyang looked towards Xu Qing. “One of my old teachers called to tell me to come take notice
enter university. Since mom came back early, can you accompany me to school. ”
“Incoming notification is out? That's great; we're leaving now! " As soon as he heard about the reception notice, Xu Qing was shocked.
The corner of Sheng Jiaoyang's mouth slightly curved upwards.
After following Xu Qing and walking through several winding alleys, they finally reached the back gate of the school. Sheng Jiaoyang was shocked when he learned that Xu Jiaojiao school was not too far from where he lived.
When Xu Qing stopped, Sheng Jiaoyang immediately said, "Teacher said that he is waiting for us in the office."
Sure enough, Xu Qing once again took the lead and they walked towards a building not far from the main gate.
When the teacher who called Sheng Jiaoyang saw him, he was sitting behind the office desk while waving at him with one hand,
he hung up the phone with his other hand.
“Teacher Jiao,” Xu Qing took the initiative and greeted him first.
Teacher Jiao raised her head, and seeing the two of them together, she smiled. “ It turns out that Jiaojiao's mother also came.”
“We apologize for inconveniencing Master Jiao by waiting here.”
“No problem at all. The first wave of incoming letters had just arrived, and as their teacher, the last thing I could do for the children was to hand them a notification letter in person. ”
Xu Qing nodded, staring at the incoming notification under Master Jiao's hands expectantly.
Teacher Jiao noticed Xu Qing's gaze. Laughing, he handed Xu Jiaojiao acceptance notice while stating, “Jiaojiao's exam results are quite good; he has been accepted at the most reputable F University in our province. "
“However, Jiaojiao,” Teacher Jiao looked at Sheng Jiaoyang. “Mom remember when mom asked about your aspirations before the university entrance exam, you
saying that you want to choose finance or economics as your major. Mom does not know that you are more interested in majoring in foreign languages.. ”.
"foreign language? British Department?" It was at this moment that Xu Qing saw the contents of the incoming notification, and he looked at Sheng Jiaoyang in surprise.
The teacher's words and Xu Qing's expression made Sheng Jiaoyang's eyes slightly widen. Could it be that when the original owner of this body filled out his course form, he kept it a secret from everyone?
On the way home, Xu Qing couldn't take it anymore and asked, “Jiaojiao, that day when you filled out the form, you told mom that your first choice was a Finance major. Why were you accepted into the English department? Are you really going to study at F University to major in a foreign language? ”
"Maybe." Sheng Jiaoyang's face was filled to a nonchalance. “English majors are also a good choice.”
“But, English is your weakest subject!”
Uh…
Sheng Jiaoyang blinked. He had almost forgotten that he was now in Xu Jiaojiao's position.
“Jiaojiao, you know.. How about next year, instead of going to university, you repeat one year? Otherwise, studying at university will be very difficult for you, ”Xu Qing tried to say casually.
"No!" After saying that, Sheng Jiaoyang immediately realized that his tone was too sharp. While chortling, he lowered his voice and said, "No matter what it is, I have decided to major in English. Whether it's going abroad or joining a foreign company, we have to learn English first right? Since I was successfully accepted into F University, with my good study skills, I would not have to spend more time learning English in the future. "
To be honest, at first, Sheng Jiaoyang was very worried that Xu Jiaojiao chose to study in the Chinese department! It should be known, that when Sheng Jiaoyang was ten years old, he would live with his grandfather in Europe. Later, he studied Financial Management as a major to become his grandfather's worthy heir. So, if she was accepted as a Chinese language major, she would definitely consider changing her major.
“Jiaojiao, in the future, you will have to work hard,” Xu Qing said reluctantly.
“Sure.” Sheng Jiaoyang was busy flicking his long bangs to the side as his bangs slightly pierced his eyes when he suddenly stopped walking.
“Did mom bring money? I want to go get a haircut. "
Realizing that the bangs on Sheng Jiaoyang's forehead became rather long, Xu Qing said, "When we return, mother will help you fix your bangs."
“I also want to change my hairstyle. This hairstyle was very simple even when I saw it, I really became not too fond of this. "
Xu Qing's expression stiffened. Ever since her daughter was a child, Xu Jiaojiao's hair had always been cut by her…
“Alright, let's go to salon.” Xu Qing touched his pocket, but when he thought of money, worry flashed across his face.
Because of his myopias, Sheng Jiaoyang should pay more attention to where he put his feet and not pay attention to Xu Qing's current expression. All she could think of was what kind of hairstyle would be most suitable for her.
After passing through the post office Sheng Jiaoyang had visited earlier, they stopped at a salon that was less than twenty square feet in size and was directly opposite the bus terminal.
"Welcome!" Upon entering, they were immediately greeted by a male salon assistant who was tall and thin, and had a flamboyant appearance.
“My daughter wants to change her hairstyle,” Xu Qing said.
“Sure, please pass here..”.
Sheng Jiaoyang's chatty eyes quickly assessed the salon. This was her first time going to this kind of small salon, and just by looking at the shop decorations and the strange hairstyles of the salon assistants, she already had no hope on the hairdressers in this store.
“OK, then sit here first.” The flamboyant assistant pulled a salon chair for her to sit on.
After which, a young man who looked relaxed with a fluster walked over. Standing behind Sheng Jiaoyang's chair, he measured it in the mirror in front of him as he said, "What hair style do you want to change?"
“Do you have a pen and a piece of paper?” Sheng Jiaoyang asked instead.
The man with the flaky piece was confused, but his customer was king. Therefore, he turned around and asked someone to bring a pen and paper, then handed it to Sheng Jiaoyang.
The salon was only a small salon, so if there was a little bit of weirdness, everyone would know. Whether it is a flamboyant client or assistant, they all witness what happens as they are filled with curiosity.
Sheng Jiaoyang ignored everyone's gazes and placed a piece of white paper on the table in front of him before starting to draw. Under the swirling pattern of the pen sliding smoothly on the paper, the portrait of a girl with attractive layered short hair appeared vividly.
The hairdresser standing behind Sheng Jiaoyang was shocked.
Curious, the flamboyant assistant walked over and was also dumbfounded.
Even Xu Qing, who was waiting beside him could barely hide the astonishment on his face.
"Okay, please cut like this hairstyle." Sheng Jiaoyang put down his pen, his slender fingertips pointing to the image on the white paper as he glanced at the hairdresser. “No problem, right?”
The hairdresser calmed down, then exclaimed in admiration as he looked at Sheng Jiaoyang, "No problem! I just didn't expect a beautiful woman like you to turn out to be an art student. "
Too much bullshit! Sheng Jiaoyang leaned against the back of the chair, and seeing that the hairdresser was sharing his picture for others to see, he impatiently urged, "can you hurry up a bit."
"Yes! Soon!"
Xu Qing was filled with mixed feelings as he watched from the side. Around this time two days ago, he got a phone call informing him that Jiaojiao was in the hospital to receive emergency treatment. He was so frightened that half his soul left his body. Although raising her daughter alone over the past few years has been difficult, she thought she could handle it all. Besides, the,
Jiaojiao is a hardworking boy, and his academic grades have always been outstanding. He never thought that his wise daughter would be hit by a car and sent to the emergency room!
Traffic police allowed him to watch surveillance videos of car accidents. The one who was wrong was not the driver, but Jiaojiao! At the time of the accident, Jiaojiao was crying and did not see where he was going when crossing the street. The driver suddenly braked, but they still crashed into Jiaojiao, causing him to fall to the ground and bang the back of his head into the road. This resulted in him receiving a slight concussion, but fortunately, there were no other injuries. Unfortunately, the driver of the car was not so lucky. Due to the overwhelming shock, the driver suffered a severe heart attack.
She did not know what happened to her daughter that day, but when she wanted to ask, she did not dare. Since it could make her daughter so upset, it was definitely a topic too sad to remember.
Fortunately, it seemed like Jiaojiao was becoming more cheerful.Alas, she felt unable to understand her daughter at all, as if she would be a different person.
He had no idea that Jiaojiao could actually draw! Previously, Jiaojiao had never drawn anything in his house. Once he graduated from school, Jiaojiao had thrown away all of his notebooks and practice books, and sold the rest of his study materials to a thrift store. Now there was no trace of Jiaojiao ever learning anything before.
Seeing Jiaojiao's slowly changing appearance under the hairdresser's scissors, Xu Qing felt somewhat guilty. During this time, she was unable to provide a decent life for her daughter due to her limited abilities. To save money, she even had to cut her daughter's hair.
“Completed!” The sound of the hairdresser interrupted Xu Qing's mind.
Sheng Jiaoyang opened his eyes, and what greeted him from the mirror was his completely new self. A thin layer of bangs stuck to her forehead and outlines her beautiful eyes, making her stand out even more. Meanwhile, the short strands of hair framed her cheeks gracefully, causing her small and beautiful chin to appear quite smooth. The overall appearance results in a hairstyle
charming short, suitable for a young girl.
"What about this?" ask the hairdresser expectantly.
"Lumayan," replied Sheng Jiaoyang indifferently.
“A beautiful woman like you would be perfect to appear in a movie, right?”
"No way," Sheng Jiaoyang replied as he glanced at the hairdresser. “I'm not a star, and I don't like posing for strangers.”
With just one glance, Sheng Jiaoyang knew that the hairdresser wanted to take his photo to use as an advertisement.
“Then, can you give us this picture as a reminder of your visit?” ask the hairdresser, not to give up.
“What will you give me instead?”
The hairdresser looked at him blankly. He did not seem to have expected that he would ask for something in exchange for the image, but he quickly replied, "We will not charge you for our services on this visit."
"agreed. I can also draw one more time if you can fix my mother's hair too. ” Sheng Jiaoyang pointed with his eyes towards Xu Qing.
"No problem!" The hairdresser agreed immediately.
"No, no need ..." Xu Qing quickly
waving hands.
“It's free, so why not take advantage of this opportunity?” Sheng Jiaoyang looked at Xu Qing strangely, and without waiting for his response, he began to draw another portrait.
If he had enough money, he would drag Xu Qing into various stores to change his entire appearance. Her original beauty had been squandered and had now faded into the appearance of an old woman.
Xu Qing's hairstyle was more complicated compared to Sheng Jiaoyang because her hair not only required a new style, but it also had to be permed. However, the hairdresser did not complain at all. Her hands efficiently changed Xu Qing's hair according to the design on the paper, but since it had to be permed, the hairstyle ended up taking nearly four hours to complete. In the middle of the road, the salon even offered to buy them each a fast food.
A hairstyle can really affect the appearance and temperament of a person. After Xu Qing's hairstyle was changed, it seemed like he was a completely different person compared to the simple ponytail hairstyle before.
The hairdresser admires her masterpiece while praising, "Beautiful woman, with your talent, you can become a designer!"
Standing at the side, the flamboyant assistant could not help but say, "With her height, she can truly become a Fashion model! Look at the one now. Compared to celebrities in general, they were more famous. "
“They are world famous super models. With so many models in the world, how many of them were actually able to reach that level of fame? ” the hairdresser's mouth twitched as he spoke.
“But, models can make money quickly. Wasn't there an event that was announced recently? Someone who wants to recruit contestants as a super model? The winner can get two hundred thousand dollars as a prize, while the second and third champions also get the prize money. Nowadays there are already many people signing up; even my little sister is in a hurry to sign up. Beautiful, you should try it too! Who knows, maybe you can win! ” the flamboyant assistant became even more excited as he spoke, his rhythm growing faster as he continued.
“My daughter just got accepted at University F.”
Xu Qing could not help himself to interrupt because he had always argued that learning was the right way to advance in the future. In addition, her daughter had just taken one of the leading university exams.
The flamboyant assistant still wanted to say something, but once he realized the sharp gaze of the hairdresser, he painstakingly covered his mouth.
“Hahaha, just looking at it I know that your daughter will have good prospects in the future,” the hairdresser said with a laugh.
"Thank you very much!" Xu Qing's expression was much better
after hearing that.
“Come away,” Sheng Jiaoyang said as he stood up.
