Lin Fan walked towards that direction.

"Old grandma, are you alright?"

Even as a zombie, she was still an elderly lady. The grandma zombie groaned lowly, as if responding to Lin Fan.

Lin Fan pushed the wheelchair, "Old grandma, I’ll take you to a nice place to enjoy the scenery."

In times of peace, the old grandma must have had filial children.

But who could have imagined that after the apocalypse arrived, everything would change.

He took the grandma to the Chao River scenery, secured the wheelchair, and said softly, "Old grandma, you’ve turned into a zombie, but you have no ability to harm others. I understand your loneliness; take a good look at the scenery in front of you, it’s very beautiful."

After he finished speaking, he turned and left.

That was all he could do.

Looking back, the grandma sitting in the wheelchair was tilting her head to admire the beauty of the Chao River, seemingly in good spirits.

...

Several days later.

Life after the apocalypse was very tranquil, aside from the encounters with zombies, everything else was normal, peaceful, and survivors were rarely seen.

Sunshine District.

"Alright, how does it look?"

Lin Fan held a mirror in front of Xu Zeyang, who mentioned that his hair had grown a bit long and that wearing a hat was uncomfortable. Thinking of himself who also moonlighted as a barber, he offered to cut Xu Zeyang’s hair for a very cheap price of ten yuan. With such a low price, he naturally agreed.

Xu Zeyang looked into the mirror, glancing left and right, quite satisfied, "Really nice."

"Thanks, I appreciate the patronage, that’ll be ten yuan."

Lin Fan accepted the money with a smile and happily pocketed it.

Li Mei, who was standing with Feifei at the side, said, "Xiao Fan, give Feifei a trim. Her bangs have gotten a bit long, they keep falling over her eyes when she’s studying."

Feifei stood obediently to the side, "Mom, I really don’t think it’s necessary."

She doubted Uncle Lin’s skills deeply. She had watched Uncle Lin cut Uncle Xu’s hair with rather shaky hands and not-so-smooth movements, afraid that her own hair would suffer a disaster.

Upon further thought, it seemed nothing good ever happened when she was under Uncle Lin’s care.

Li Mei glared at her, "What do you mean ’not necessary’? Look at your bangs, they’re longer than anyone’s, blocking your vision, which is bad for you. You should really learn from Tingting and Little Sister Cao Qing, they’re so obedient."

Feifei ducked her head.

And didn’t dare to speak.

She was the elder sister among the girls, but she couldn’t seem to set a good example and was often surpassed by her younger sisters, which made her feel a bit hopeless. Why must you all be so excellent? Can’t you cut me some slack and save some face for me as the elder sister?

Lin Fan laughed, "Feifei, trust me, Uncle’s got good skills."

Feifei sat there, her heart beating anxiously, "Uncle, we agreed, just trim the bangs, nothing else."

"Okay, don’t worry."

Haircutting was indeed a delicate task, but for Lin Fan who had some experience, he felt his skills were actually not too shabby, and trimming bangs was certainly no problem.

Snip! Snip!

Trimming.

Feifei was a bit nervous.

At that moment, Tingting came downstairs with Little Sister Cao Qing, and seeing Feifei getting a haircut, they also stood by and watched.

"Wow, Uncle Lin’s skills are amazing, Feifei’s bangs look so pretty," Tingting exclaimed.

Cao Qing said, "Yeah, they really do look nice."

The district was only so big, and for the kids, having playmates was enough to keep them from feeling bored, whereas the adults, even if bored, would tolerate it.

Feifei’s eyes darted towards Tingting and Cao Qing.

Thinking to herself.

Could it really look that good?

She was somewhat hopeful.

Li Mei advised from the side, "Xiao Fan, cut it a little shorter."

"Okay."

An accomplished barber often operates on the principle of pointing at a customer and saying, "Shut up and don’t direct me. I’m the one cutting, not you. If you’re so capable, then you do it." But Lin Fan was a newbie in the field, completely accommodating the parents’ wishes. Whatever you want, that’s how it’ll be done.

Snip! Snip!

"A bit shorter still."

"Okay."

Feifei couldn’t help but interrupt, "Mom, isn’t that cutting it too short?"

Li Mei replied, "It’s fine, it’s still quite long."

Feifei was a bit scared, her heart racing as if something bad was going to happen.

Tingting was amazed, "Wow, Feifei’s bangs look so nice, Uncle Lin is so talented with cutting hair."

Cao Qing looked at Tingting and, seeing her say so, nodded her head as well, "Looks good."

Hearing their words.

Feifei’s pounding heart calmed down a bit. Maybe I was really overthinking it?

A little while later.

"Alright," Lin Fan said with a smile.

Li Mei, observing her daughter’s new look, nodded in satisfaction, "Not bad, Xiao Fan, your skills really are good, here, the money’s for you."

Lin Fan tried to refuse, "Sister Li, it’s okay, no need, it was just a haircut for a kid, nothing difficult."

"Oh no, I couldn’t possibly."

Li Mei and Lin Fan pushed back and forth.

All the while, Feifei waited eagerly to take the mirror and see for herself what her bangs really looked like.

Because Tingting and Cao Qing had been complimenting them.

Pretty, pretty, they said until her head was spinning.

Looking into the mirror.

Snip!

It was as if her heart had shattered.

Feifei stared wide-eyed, looking at her reflection in the mirror, the length of her bangs seemed quite short, only covering half her forehead.

She looked at Tingting and Cao Qing, pointing at her bangs.

"Pretty?"
