In the small apartment, Lu Yao pinched Shen Sisi's fingers, and used a soft brush to carefully outline the pattern on her nails, coloring them over and over again.
Shen Sisi said that the date tonight was very important to her, and she wanted a cute and special pattern.
Lu Yao knew her preferences and immediately designed a set of original patterns - a pink and delicate peach blossom extended from the root of the nail, and a chubby calico cat squatted under the branch, curling its tail and stretching its paws to attract the peach blossom.
Shen Sisi liked the idea very much after hearing it, and immediately let Lu Yao start. Lu Yao has steady hands and pays great attention to detail
when drawing. She places tiny flower buds on her fingernails and uses a needle to carefully point out the stamens. The little cat only has a round back, a thick tail, and chubby paws, which makes it look naive. She also has a good grasp of color matching, with appropriate shades and natural transitions, and it will never look tacky or stiff. After finishing, Shen Sisi bent her fingers and looked at it for a long time, nodding with satisfaction, "Your skills are still so good, I like this so much." Lu Yao said while packing up the materials, "Your hands are also beautiful, slender and white." She is also very satisfied with today's set of pictures. When designing, she thought of the window of the snack bar, where the flower trees on both sides of the road by the river have hung pink buds, and inspiration is endless. Shen Sisi liked it no matter how she looked at it. She took a few photos with her phone and stopped when she was satisfied. "What have you been busy with recently? Will you continue to receive orders in the future?" This hit the nail on the head for Lu Yao. He was afraid of appearing too anxious, so he nodded restrainedly. "Well, I've been busy with work since I came back from the trip. I've just settled down and can take orders in the future." Shen Sisi sat next to Lu Yao and raised her phone. "Let's take a photo. I'll post a circle of friends. When the sisters know you're back, they will all come to find you." Those in the same circle as Shen Sisi are all wealthy women. Many people were recommended by Shen Sisi to find Lu Yao in the past. It's just that she disappeared for too long after her graduation trip, and even she almost forgot that she had a side job. After posting on Moments, Shen Sisi transferred money to Lu Yao, picked up her bag and stood up: "The time is just right, I have to go to attract love! Yaoyao, I'm leaving first." Lu Yao looked at the fifteen hundred yuan that had just arrived in her mobile phone, and she was a little excited. During this period of time, she had to pay for the store, and she almost forgot the simple happiness of "one labor, one gain". Shen Sisi's recommendation was very effective. In less than half an hour, two young ladies contacted Lu Yao to make an appointment, one was Lu Yao's previous customer, and the other was a new customer who had just been contacted. Lu Yao had to go to the store in the morning, so he made an appointment with the new customer at four o'clock in the afternoon, and the other customer at seven o'clock in the evening. Lu Yao was in a good mood as she had some income after a long time. It was still early, so she prepared to go to the store again. Lu Yao carried two peeled pineapples and walked slowly from the main road into the commercial street. She opened the door and found that there were no customers and no one else. Only Qi Chen was sleeping by the window. She put the pineapples in the refrigerator, poured a glass of water, and sat down opposite Qi Chen. After waiting for a while, the other party showed no signs of waking up. Lu Yao couldn't help but reach out and gently push his arm. The people here have no temperature. They are always cold, like snow, at any time. Qi Chen opened his eyes, fear still in his eyes. When he saw that it was Lu Yao, his stiff shoulders relaxed, "You're back." Lu Yao asked, "Did you have a nightmare?" Qi Chen sat up, raised his hand and pinched his brow, "I wanted to try to ask my parents in a dream to ask them to help you." Asking in a dream... is this even possible? Lu Yao was stunned, "What was the result?" Qi Chen looked painful, "I had a nightmare." "..." "Fortunately you woke me up, I was almost scared to death." Lu Yao couldn't say "You're dead", turned his head and looked away, "Where are they? Why is it only you?" Qi Chen felt that he had a nightmare because those three people said they wanted to go to the amusement park. When they left, their expressions were extremely evil, which reminded him of the past when he was ravaged by NPCs in the paradise. It kept repeating in nightmares, which was too scary. He calmed down and said, "I'll leave after work." Lu Yao nodded: "I have to prepare the ingredients for tomorrow, you come and help." In the past, Bai Ming and Xingzi helped with these. They are very capable and can finish them quickly every time. Qi Chen stared at Lu Yao for a while before slowly getting up. After finishing the work, Lu Yao let Qi Chen go first. She checked the store inside and out, and made sure there was no problem before closing the door and leaving. At 3:30 in the morning, someone posted on a mysterious game forum - Damn! I seem to have been robbed by an NPC! ! ! The poster's tone was very excited: I finally got a phantom ring through connections. It was my first time entering the park, and I was too nervous. I was going to bring a small prop, but I put a bunch of money in by mistake. As soon as I entered the game and opened the prop bag, I saw a stack of red bills, and I despaired. I heard from my predecessors that this game is very difficult, and it will not end unless everyone is dead. Sure enough, not long after, almost everyone who came in together was dead. In less than half an hour, there were only me and a girl left. The girl's prop bag seemed to contain some kind of talisman, and the NPC touched her and immediately let go. Then I thought I was dead, and the next second the NPC rushed towards me. The thing was black all over, like a moving mass of mud. It seemed to move slowly, but it was right in front of me, with its mouth open and two rows of sharp teeth that were thin and dense. My legs went limp at that moment, and I sat on the ground, unable to get up. A slender hand stretched out from the mud, grabbed my ankle and swung me into the air. Its hand was as cold as iron, and all the hairs on my body stood up, and goose bumps fell off layer by layer. Then it grabbed me and shook it, and then shook it again, and the money in the prop bag fell out. The NPC paused, picked up the money on the ground, tilted its head and looked at it for a long time. I didn't understand what it was looking at. Finally, it put me down, took the money, and killed the girl wearing the talisman before leaving... It's scary to think about it, does it like money? Someone downstairs immediately replied. "I was still in primary school when I last saw this joke, and now my kids are two." "How could NPCs like money? They are unconscious monsters who kill and eat people based on instinct." "To make up such a rumor is either stupid or evil!"
The poster excitedly shared his experience of successfully escaping from the game for the first time on the forum. He thought he would receive a lot of envy or congratulations, but all he got was ridicule, and people accused him of spreading rumors.
He couldn't accept it, and he explained for a long time, but no one believed him.
It was late at night, and there were probably not many active people on the forum, so the post soon sank.
Around five o'clock, someone else replied below: The poster is simply a different person! It was my first time entering the game, too, and I stuffed money into my prop bag. But I was chased by a big eggplant, an eggplant with four chopsticks stuck in it, shiny purple like a pony, running fast and with a mouth. It caught up with me, bit me, shook out the money in the prop bag, took it and ran away. I suspect that the rules of the park have changed.
...
The next morning, Lu Yao arrived at the store half an hour earlier than the others as usual.
When he opened the door, Bai Ming, Xingzi and Xiao Qie stood outside with their hands behind their backs. Lu Yao was surprised: "Why are you here so early today?" They were quite neat.
