Chapter 325: Chapter 325: The Perfect Hairstyle

For instance, she would give extra slices of fruit or an extra piece of cake.

Qin Xiangnuan had an injury on her head, and it had been a long time since she had taken a bath. She could only wipe herself down with hot water at home, and her hair, having not been washed for a long time, had clumped together. Grabbing a handful, she truly felt miserable.

She gritted her teeth and fetched a pair of scissors from inside the house. With a single cut, her hair, which had grown down to her back, was cut evenly at ear level.

Taotao stood by, tilting his head, not understanding what Qin Xiangnuan was doing.

"Sister, what are you doing?" He ran over and hugged Qin Henuan’s legs tightly.

"It’s nothing," Qin Xiangnuan tossed the scissors aside, "The hairstyle isn’t looking good. Sister is making it nice."

Taotao nodded seriously, but was just staring curiously at Qin Xiangnuan’s uneven, dog-bitten-like hair.

He touched his own little head, then tugged on Qin Xiangnuan’s sleeve, "Sister, it doesn’t look good."

"Is that so?" Qin Xiangnuan felt awkward. In fact, she didn’t know whether it looked ugly or good; she couldn’t see it herself. It was just that she somehow felt she was letting down the people she lived with. They made her happy, and yet she was startling them.

She grasped Taotao’s little hand and entered her room, then threw a notebook and watercolor pens to Taotao, asking him to draw and write by himself. Meanwhile, she wanted to properly fix up her new hairstyle. But when she looked in the mirror, she felt like dying on the spot.

Her new hairstyle was admittedly ugly, truly resembling as if Conghua had taken a bite off it – unevenly long on one side and short on the other, with a bald spot on the forehead, actually due to the bandage-wrapped injury that hadn’t healed yet.

Later, she would go into the virtual system to inquire if there was any medicine for treating scars. Although the doctor said it was fine and that the hair would grow back once it healed, she was still worried. What if it didn’t grow back? Would she have to live with a bald head for the rest of her life, or wear wigs or hats forever?

Once Taotao had fallen asleep, Qin Xiangnuan entered the system and pulled up the system panel.

"System, is there any Scar Removal Medicine?" she gently touched the top of her head, which was still a bit painful and hadn’t healed. The wound was just beginning to scab over, and it wouldn’t heal for another month or two. Although she didn’t know the extent of her injury, she heard that there had been a big hole in her head that bled uncontrollably and required several stitches. If it wasn’t serious, stitches wouldn’t have been needed. A ding sounded, and a line of text appeared in the system.

"Yes, use after the wound has scabbed. Apply twice daily, morning and evening, and it guarantees hair regrowth."

Three black lines seemed to cross Qin Xiangnuan’s face.

Could it be that the system knew what she was worried about?

It seemed so. She wasn’t worried about scars but whether her hair would regrow. In her previous life, she had been ugly all her life and had only just started to look a bit prettier when her face was ruined again, turning her into a despised person. She thought she truly would remain unwanted.

She scrolled through the system’s transparent panel and finally, at the very bottom, found a type of Scar Removal Medicine produced by the system. It was a product without any certification, but it possessed magical healing properties, just like those breast enhancement medicines with terrifying effects.

The medicine was good, but it was also very expensive.

One bottle cost one hundred Gold Coins. To avoid scars and to regrow her hair, she decided to work more for the system and earn those one hundred Gold Coins as soon as possible.

When Jian Zhiqing came back and saw Qin Xiangnuan’s ear-length short hair, he was speechless for a long time.

"Why did you turn into this?"

He hurried over and tugged at Qin Xiangnuan’s short hair, "You cut it?"

"Yes," Qin Xiangnuan swayed her legs sitting at the table, "I cut it myself. It had knotted into twists from not being washed for so long; it’s better to have it cut, feels lighter. She shook her ear-length hair, feeling neither uncomfortable nor reluctant, as hair always grows back anyway."

Jian Zhiqing felt helpless about her sense of aesthetics, "Later, I’ll take you out and get it fixed up. Otherwise, don’t even think about going out, do you want to make people laugh to death?"

Qin Xiangnuan didn’t care, she thought it looked quite nice on her, though not very attractive, but it had a kind of alternative artistic sense. It’s just too bad, no one else had the same aesthetic sense as hers.

After dinner, coincidentally, Jian Zhiqing went outside to walk off the meal and took her with him to get her hairstyle fixed up.

When Qin Xiangnuan cut her own hair, she really didn’t feel anything, but when she sat down in the hair salon chair, the full-length mirror in front of her reflected her whole body and she realized that the hairstyle she had cut out was quite painful to the eye.

"Be careful with her head, she’s injured."

Jian Zhiqing reminded the hairstylist, "Don’t hurt her head."

"Don’t worry, I know," the hairstylist seemed quite familiar with Jian Zhiqing, took out the scissors and started snipping Qin Xiangnuan’s hair. She couldn’t see how he was cutting, but knew from the hairstylist moving the scissors now and then that the floor already had plenty of hair clippings.

"The young lady seems so nice, how did she become injured like this?"

As the hairstylist cut, he lamented, "Once the injury heals, it might leave scars, and who knows if the hair will grow back?"

Jian Zhiqing gave the hairstylist a warning look, and the hairstylist knew he had overstepped, continuing his work without further speech. Of course, Qin Xiangnuan didn’t take it to heart, as she had already found medicine for scar removal and hair growth in the system, in fact, she wasn’t worried at all about getting a bald spot on her forehead.

Half an hour later, her haircut was done.

"Take a look, how is it?"

The hairstylist placed the scissors on the table, clearly very confident in his skills, certainly satisfied with the hair he had cut for Qin Xiangnuan.

Qin Xiangnuan looked at herself in the mirror several times, in fact, she really didn’t know what looked good, it all seemed boyish in every regard. Still, at least it was quite neatly styled, if it wasn’t for the injury on top of her head, she might have felt quite a bit handsome.

"Not bad," Jian Zhiqing rose from the sofa and walked in front of the mirror, carefully examining Qin Xiangnuan’s freshly cropped hair. Though, long hair looked better, he thought. Wait for the injury to heal and then let it grow, he gently tousled Qin Xiangnuan’s short hair.

"It’s quite short, but it’s fine, looks spirited."

After getting the hair done, by the time they went back, it was almost 9:30 pm. The TV was still on, Jian Zhiqin and Taotao were watching TV. Both kids were glued to the screen, engrossed in the romantic TV drama. Jian Zhiqin was okay, but Taotao was so young, it was uncertain if he could understand these love dramas.
