Chapter 27 Adaptation

Today was the first day of work, and Lin Du was the first one to arrive. After receiving his clothes, he went to the locker room and changed his clothes while no one was around.

Lin Du didn't know the other people. He looked around and waited for Qin Chang.

"What are you looking for?" Qin Chang patted his shoulder from behind.

Seeing Qin Chang, Lin Du relaxed a lot: "You are here. Did you have fun yesterday?"

"I'm so happy!" Qin Chang grinned, "I also added a handsome guy on WeChat, and he asked me to go out with him next time."

Lin Du nodded. It was obvious that Qin Chang really liked the handsome guy he was talking about.

"Come on, you'll follow me today."

"good."

Qin Chang brought Lin Du to the front hall and pointed at a man in a booth: "Go and ask him what he wants to drink."

Lin Du was startled and became nervous involuntarily.

"Remember to smile." Qin Chang reminded him from behind.

Lin Du didn't turn around, his eyes fixed on the guest in front of him, and nodded slightly.

I tried hard to regulate my breathing, and raised the corners of my mouth deliberately and awkwardly: "First... sir, do you need anything to drink?"

The man raised his head and glanced at Lin Du. Seeing his awkward look, he couldn't help but become interested: "New here?"

"Yeah." Lin Du nodded, his fingers tightly clasping the bottom of the tray.

"I'm not feeling well today, just something casual will do."

Lin Du nodded quickly and turned away without hesitation. The moment he turned around, he dared to breathe deeply.

Qin Chang leaned against the bar, watching Lin Du's face turn pale with nervousness, feeling both distressed and amused: "How is it?"

"He...he said he was not feeling well and just wanted to eat something." Lin Du repeated the man's words, "How did I perform just now?"

Qin Chang sighed and said, "It's OK, but you're too nervous. Others can tell at a glance that you're very reserved."

"Is that so?" Lin Du was a little disappointed. He had been trying hard to restrain himself, but the result was still unsatisfactory.

"It's only your first day, why are you in such a hurry?" Qin Chang shouted at the bar, "Give me a glass of the lowest strength fruit wine and a glass of warm water."

He raised his chin slightly and motioned Lin Du to pass it over: "Be sweeter, come on!"

Lin Du took a deep breath and clenched his hands: "Come on!"

Qin Chang tried to hold back his laughter; it was so funny to see Lin Du looking so silly.

"Excuse me, sir. Here is a glass of fruit wine. Since you are not feeling well, you'd better not drink anything strong. Here is also a glass of warm water. You may feel better if you drink a little." Lin Du mechanically said all he wanted to say at once, fearing that he would miss something because of nervousness.

The man looked up at Lin Du and smiled: "Thank you."

Seeing the man's reaction, Lin Du felt relieved. He smiled, nodded, turned and left.

"Wait a moment!"

Lin Du was startled and turned back nervously: "Sir, do you have any other instructions?"

The man didn't say anything, but took out a few hundred yuan from his wallet and put it on the table.

Lin Du pursed his lips and took it carefully: "Thank you."

With an excited heart, Lin Du quickly ran to Qin Chang and took the money with trembling hands: "Give it to me!"

"Yes, it's for you!" Qin Chang grinned. "Our baby is awesome. He received a tip on his first day at work. Come and see how much it is!"

"Five hundred!" Lin Du simply couldn't believe that he earned five hundred yuan so easily.

Qin Chang pouted: "It's a little less, but it doesn't matter, I'll keep doing it!"

Lin Du nodded. In his mind, five hundred was already a lot.

Qin Chang stared at Lin Du and looked at him: "I always feel like something is missing?"

"What?" Lin Du touched his face.

"Baby, why don't you put on any makeup?" Qin Chang pinched Lin Du's face. "You are pretty, but your complexion is so bad. How can you attract customers like this?"

Lin Du pulled the corner of his mouth awkwardly: "I can't."

"Come on, I'll help you!" Qin Chang pulled Lin Du to the locker room.

After taking a look, Qin Chang opened her makeup bag and said, "You have a good-looking foundation, but your complexion is a little off. You don't need to put on too much makeup, otherwise it will affect your original beauty."

Lin Du nodded in confusion and let Qin Chang work on his face.

I simply applied a base to Lin Du, a little blush, and some lip gloss.

Qin Chang raised his lips in satisfaction: "Wow! Baby, you look much more delicious like this. Look at your fair little face and your rosy little mouth. Who wouldn't be confused when seeing you?"

Looking at himself in the mirror, Lin Du almost couldn't recognize himself.

"How is it? Have you become more beautiful?" Qin Chang said proudly.

Lin Du nodded, but still felt awkward.

"Okay, let's go out and make some money!" Qin Chang pulled Lin Du out, "Relax, don't shrink your neck, be open and honest."

Lin Du stretched his neck and straightened his back: "How about this?"

Qin Chang tried to hold back his laughter. Lin Du's childish and clumsy look was so adorable. He really liked him.

In order not to delay Qin Chang, Lin Du tried to contact different guests by himself.

During this time, there were also people who wanted to take advantage of him, but Lin Du instinctively avoided them and was humiliated in front of customers several times. If Qin Chang had not come out to rescue him, he would most likely have been kicked out by the boss.

After a day's work, Lin Du was still feeling uneasy.

He was very dissatisfied with his performance. Several times, customers were about to give him tips, but they rejected him because of his deliberate evasion and avoidance.

"Let's go! What are you daydreaming about?" Qin Chang changed her clothes and put on some makeup.

"Aren't you going home?"

"What home are you going back to?" Qin Chang smiled casually, "I'm going home alone, and I made an appointment with handsome guy to go out and play together today."

Lin Du nodded without asking any more questions: "Then be careful."

"Don't worry, go back and have a rest. You've done very well today." Qin Chang patted Lin Du's shoulder. "I'm leaving now. Handsome is here to pick me up!"

"good!"

Lin Du sighed, he was really envious of Qin Chang's personality, it seemed like he was full of energy all the time.

Carefully taking out the tips he earned today, a total of 2,300 yuan, Lin Du put them into his pocket, seeming to have some hope for his future life again.

Today, the Beichuan entertainment headlines are all dominated by Su Wenlang, and it is no longer a strange thing for him to appear on the hot searches every now and then.

Many people say that he either has a master guiding him or financial backers behind him, so everyone's attitude towards him has always been to flatter him on the surface but slander him behind his back.

Su Wenlang sat in his deserted office, flipping through some magazines out of boredom.

I've been busy filming a movie recently, and now that it's finished, I can finally take some time to spend with Gu Renchi.

God knows how anxious he is every day trapped on the set.

If he doesn't receive a call from Gu Xinchi for a day, he can't help but have wild thoughts.

There were no telling how many men and women were eyeing a top-notch person like Gu Xinchi, so he didn't dare to let his guard down at all.

Even though they had been together for ten years, he still couldn't stand by him openly.

He missed the time they spent abroad, when they could walk hand in hand on the street and kiss each other passionately.

But now, their identities do not allow them to act recklessly.

Moreover, the Gu family has been urging Gu Xichi to get married and have children. Su Wenlang couldn't help but feel anxious when he thought of this.

He could only worry that if he got married and had children, he would most likely be abandoned again.

He didn't want to go back to the life he had ten years ago, which was dark and full of torture.

No matter what, he would hold Gu Zengshi's hand tightly and would never let him go.
