Chapter 54 – My Girlfriend Doesn’t Show Up for an Appointment.
“How would you like your hair cut?”
“Uh…Trimmed…Please.”
“How should I trim it? The customer’s hair is a bit floating overall, so I don’t think it’s okay to trim it. Do you have any other hair in mind?”
It was good until I came to the big shop when Yoo-min asked me to come with pretty hair.
But from then on, there was a series of surprises, amazement, and bewilderment.
‘Shouldn’t I have just cut it at the house I go to often…’
There is no need to say anything, ‘as always, please.’ If you say, ‘Kim Min male cut’ will be done on its own.
I had never specifically thought about that hairstyle.
A place where you can cut your hair on your own when you go to a mask, and cut your hair silently without talking to each other.
I missed my regular hair salon so much.
“There’s no other…”
“Are you new to our shop today?”
“Yes Yes…”
“Hey, maybe because of a date?!”
Minsu became more and more distressed at the friendliness of the employees at the shop.
I hoped he wouldn’t talk to me anymore, and I couldn’t understand why he was asking such a private thing.
‘What if I didn’t have a boyfriend…’
But if you think of it the other way around, do you think you look like someone who has a girlfriend?
I suddenly feel better, my shoulders get stronger and my nose goes up.
“Yes.”
“Okay then, you’ve come all the way to the shop, but it’s such a waste to just trim it. Why don’t you try a perm? The length of your hair is just right and I think it’ll be fine.”
“A perm?”
“Yes, the atmosphere will change in an instant? There are quite a few perms that suit you. Maybe it’s because you like the mask, they all look so cool overall. Can I show you some pictures?”
“Yes Yes…”
For Vincens, the chief designer of Essay Shop, grilling and eating a new customer was not a chore.
Vincens knew exactly who Minsu was from the moment he entered the shop.
‘Hero Kim Min-soo… He didn’t usually come to our shop, but he came suddenly… To decorate? There is only one reason why a man decorates a woman…! I decided to come today to get my hair done.’
We identify the needs of our customers in advance and act accordingly.
None of what Vincens had said so far had been true.
Are they scamming you for being a clumsy guest? That was really crap.
‘I’m suggesting a direction.’
There might be some possibility in your hair, but you cut it the way you always cut it.
And would your lover like going out on a date? I’m not sure, but I thought no.
“If you look at this model’s hairstyle, her head looks very similar to yours now, right? Oh, but yours looks much better. Hoho.”
“Okay?”
Praise makes even whales dance. Instead, it should come naturally into the conversation without being too burdensome.
Being a chief designer at the shop wasn’t just about having a good haircut.
An important criterion was how many customers he was able to attract through his affinity and communication.
“Sure, I’m not the kind of person who just talks empty words like this. Anyway, if you look at it, the similarity of the head means that the style comes out somewhat similar. Don’t you feel that the style of this model here is very different when she is permed and when she is not?”
Clearly, the distance and the height of the voice are not too burdensome.
Diction that perfectly hits the ear.
Minsu couldn’t come to his senses right now.
To be honest, the difference in perm didn’t seem to have changed much.
But it was also very different, so it seemed that way.
“Yeah, to what extent…?”
“It seems that a certain amount of it can determine the style. So, what I would like to recommend to my customers is to go in with an As perm and a down perm, pressing down the hair and adding a little part to the part. What do you think? How about dyeing your hair in dark black to make a strong impression?”
“Ah… That’s…”
“If you do it now, we are also providing hair nutrition management. This way, the color lasts longer and the perm lasts longer, so the overall perfection is improved. Is it okay?”
“Yes… Yes yes…”
Minsu couldn’t come to his senses.
What affinity is this? How can you talk like this to someone you’ve never seen before?
He seems to speak similarly to himself, but he wasn’t offended at all.
“Then please wait a moment~ I’m going to prepare a drink for you to drink while you’re waiting. Do you have any drinks you’d like to drink?”
“Then strawberry ade…”
“Yes~ I’ll bring you strawberry ade~ Thank you, customer.”
It seems like I made a big decision, but I thought the good was the good.
‘Because I came here to do my hair anyway.’
It is true that it is better to decorate in earnest than to refine.
Minsu looked in the mirror and nodded his head.
‘Isn’t Yu-min really falling for me today?’
Looking forward to it already.
+++++++++++++++++++++
“You just have to go?”
“Yeah, that’s right. Minsu shouldn’t be noticed, he’s hiding somewhere.”
“What next?”
“Maybe after a while, Minsu will answer a phone call. After that call, approach him naturally, is it okay? I just need to ask this once.”
“If you do that, you will test our new weapon development, right?”
“Because it is.”
“I know.”
Melanie replayed the recording of the sudden call yesterday.
It was an unexpected request, but it was an acceptable deal.
‘You shouldn’t even propose a model to Kim Min-soo…’
How much better it would have been if this deal had been a model offer.
Baek Taeyang was too fast to be called a rising morning star.
It was so fast that I couldn’t even read the bad reviews that it would flash for a moment.
‘Following Bogeumjari Chairman Choi Young-nam, Wonderland CEO Ben Moro…’
When the big hands of conglomerates start to get twisted, the ransom goes up out of control.
The short moment I met Baek Tae-yang in the limousine was when his ransom was at its lowest price.
I felt ashamed that the successor who would lead the Kaiban Group from now on could not even have such a vision.
Kim Min-soo was at the level of a rising star.
A small star that can’t even emit proper light because it’s covered in the shade of the white sun.
‘Because he’s in the same class as Baek Taeyang, there’s a high chance he’ll end up as a promising player until he graduates.’
Baek Taeyang was already building a strong enough reputation externally to be called Hunter.
It was hard to believe that a Victory 1st year cadet was called ‘Hunter’, but it was real.
Originally, it was normal for there to be a backlash among the hunters, but that didn’t even happen.
This is because Hunter Lee Min-jun, who is quite influential among hunters, actively supported his title.
“I don’t want the title Hunter to fall into mannerism anymore.”
“Since when did the condition of a hunter be graduating from the academy?”
“It is not the educational process that determines a hunter.”
“Starting with the White Sun Hunter, I hope that the rotten puddles in the Hunter world will disappear at least a little bit.”
It was a great word to hear.
This video, which lasted about two minutes, went viral all over the Internet in an instant.
“What do you think, Knight Kim?”
“You mean White Sun Hunter? He’s very dependable in an ordinary person like me. Didn’t there have been casualties in Wonderland as well as in the nest mall? To be honest, things like S-class gates and dungeons are so far away that I don’t feel it, but things related to human casualties … It’s so close that it’s even cooler.”
“…That’s why it’s even more unfortunate…”
Knight Kim kept his mouth shut because he thought the atmosphere would become heavy if he spoke any further.
There’s nothing good about making her feel bad for nothing.
‘Something to turn the subject of conversation to…’
I desperately rolled my eyes.
Enduring a still stop near the Bogeumjari Mall was gradually reaching its limit.
I had to find something to cheer her up.
‘Uh? Found.’
It’s bad to criticize others, but I couldn’t help it this time.
“Lady, look at that guy over there. He’s got a lot of hair and his clothes are completely destroyed. I guess there are still people like that these days.”
“That’s Minsu Kim.”
“Yeah?!”
“It’s the first time you’ve seen Kim Min-soo’s private clothes fashion.
Even though you live alone in a dormitory, isn’t it a bit harsh to dress like that?
Engineer Kim thought that perhaps Kim Min-soo was a person who was too far ahead of his time.
Originally, the world of fashion is profound and highly influenced by the times.
“Black skinny jeans and a big dog print T-shirt… Purple clutch bag… I can’t believe it…”
“Me too, I can’t believe you’re going out after a while and talking to someone dressed like that.”
“…Fighting, lady.”
“Thanks.”
It was hard to even look at.
I don’t know if I should say it’s fortunate out of misfortune, but maybe it’s because the pepper is small, so it didn’t show much even when I was wearing skinny jeans.
The third leg was at the level of a parrot protruding, so the area between the crotch was not burdensome.
‘I don’t even have to say this.’
Knight Kim’s first priority was the peace, stability and happiness of the young lady.
+++++++++++++++++++++++
“Why aren’t you coming?”
It’s already been 10 minutes past the appointment time.
Every time I look at myself in the mirror, I feel proud.
Of course, I didn’t expect that changing his hair once would cost that much money, but it didn’t matter since he was satisfied.
“Um… Is it because Yumin is also decorating?”
Was it an accident after 30 minutes? Thought.
I thought about calling him, but I didn’t want to be the man who urged me on.
After an hour passed, he finally picked up his cell phone.
It was clear that something had happened since he sent several messages and never received them.
Turr turr turr
For some reason, an unknown chill dwells in my body.
It must have been a warm spring day, but the moment I waited for my girlfriend in the sunny weather was so uneasy.
Why?
An unknown sense of danger.
Click.
“Yoomin, what’s wrong? I was worried because you haven’t come out yet…”
“Don’t worry, Minsu.”
Uh?
It wasn’t Yumin’s voice.
A strange man’s voice came out of the receiver.
Dark clouds hang in the clear sky.
