Shu Xiaoli raised her head, her eyes showing an emotion she had never seen before, less timid. "Jiang Qiao, you know what? I like you now, but the you before... I still miss you."
Jiang Qiao felt as if something was blocking her throat, which was uncomfortable and painful. She didn't know why Shu Xiaoli said those words. As she listened to her, many guesses slowly surfaced.
She didn't respond to Shu Xiaoli.
Shu Xiaoli smiled calmly, tears flickering in her left eye. "...Jiang Qiao can't come back anymore, right?"
Jiang Qiao knew that the name she was talking about was the original owner.
"I think so...how did you know?"
Jiang Qiao doesn't have much memory about her and Shu Xiaoli.
Shu Xiaoli pulled Jiang Qiao forward, "You may not know that before Jiang Qiao came to Class 7, I was already being targeted by Shen Feiwan and the other two. That day, Ye Qingqing wanted to take me to the old teaching building. I knew exactly what they were going to do, and I was really scared at the time. But when Jiang Qiao came that day, Shen Feiwan changed the person he wanted to bully..."
At this point, Shu Xiaoli was choking up and actually sobbing. "You don't know how lucky I was at that time. After Jiang Qiao came, Shen Feiwan seemed to have forgotten about me. I thought I had avoided this disaster, but... the disaster wasn't avoided, it was just transferred. Jiang Qiao was accidentally killed by Shen Feiwan... Everyone knew it was Shen Feiwan who did it, but no one in the class was willing to testify!"
After she said so much, Jiang Qiao guessed that she remembered everything before reincarnation. "But you helped her, didn't you?"
"Oh, I did help her." Shu Xiaoli smiled bitterly, "So I'm the next one. The next person Shen Feiwan wants to harm is me!"
"Actually, I think I deserved it. I was lucky that it wasn't me when Jiang Qiao was bullied! If it weren't for Jiang Qiao, I might have been the one who died. So... I have been observing her silently. She is as inferior and cowardly as I am, even more so. I know that she is not loved by her parents and lacks love. I know that she hates chemistry the most. I know everything she fears..."
"You are different from her, and maybe I am different from you too. No matter what happens, she and I will never become someone like you. I can tell at a glance that you are not her."
"You have your own ideas, you live for yourself, you are determined and strong, I really envy you..."
Shu Xiaoli's eyes seemed to be filled with anger and sadness, and she stated everything calmly...
Jiang Qiao suddenly hugged her, and they hugged each other tightly, as if they were the closest friends in the world. "You are very good, there is no need to envy me."
The victim is innocent, the abuser should go to hell.
Shu Xiaoli hugged her back and said with a smile, "This is the first time someone has said I'm nice."
…
The two of them forgot everything that had just happened in silence, and Jiang Qiao took her to Lin Qin'er's barber shop.
Lin Qin'er was still dressed very beautifully. The only flaw was her heavy makeup. Her eyelashes were like butterfly wings, fluttering constantly.
It's okay today, there's no smell of cigarettes here.
Lin Qin'er remembered Jiang Qiao, the girl with the rustic hairstyle. She casually put down her scissors and greeted her with a twist of her hips, "You're here again. What do you want to do here today?"
The voice was lukewarm, and at most it was impatient.
Jiang Qiao took a step to the right, revealing the person behind him, and said with a smile: "Give her a suitable haircut as well. I trust your skills on this street."
Lin Qin'er rolled her eyes lightly, exposing her lie. "Stop complimenting me. I'm the only barber shop on this street."
Jiang Qiao: Huh?
"Okay, let your friend come over!" Lin Qin'er saw Shu Xiaoli's thick bangs and couldn't help but complain, "What kind of aesthetic is this? Are thick bangs trendy now? It's so tacky!"
As he said that, he pulled Shu Xiaoli to the shampoo chair.
Jiang Qiao had no way to refute it, after all, she was right.
It’s really rustic!!!
Jiang Qiao secretly thought that it was a good thing that there was only one barber shop on this street, otherwise, with Lin Qin'er not treating customers as gods, it would be difficult to get repeat customers.
I have to say that although Lin Qin'er has a bad temper, her skills are still online. The scissors flying in her hands look very professional.
"Don't you have classes today? Which high school are you from?" Lin Qin'er asked them curiously.
Jiang Qiao was sitting there with nothing to do, so he joined in the conversation, "I skipped class, from Qingteng No. 1 Middle School."
"Oh, No. 1 High School, the best high school. You look quite smart, so why are good students skipping classes?"
"What if you're a good student? What if you're a bad student? We're all human. If you want to run away, you can."
Lin Qin'er liked this girl a little. She was what her teachers called a bad student, so she dropped out of school early and became an apprentice. After she mastered the skill, she opened a barber shop.
"If you can't continue studying, I'd be happy for you to become my apprentice. You can earn quite a bit a month."
Jiang Qiao's forehead was covered with black lines. "Do you know what you're doing? You're poaching employees from one of the most promising companies in the Fortune 500. But your place isn't bad, so I'll just give you a try! If I can't make it, I'll come back to you."
Lin Qin'er said something again, and her hand shook, cutting off a small amount of Shu Xiaoli's hair.
Shu Xiaoli noticed her stiff movements and turned to ask, "What's wrong?"
How could Lin Qin'er leave a stain on her career? She turned Shu Xiaoli's head back and said, "It's okay, don't move."
Jiang Qiao: Well, I didn’t see anything…
In fact, as long as you like a girl, you can start a conversation with her. After chatting for so long, Jiang Qiao was quite happy.
They talked a lot again. Lin Qin'er was also a straightforward person and would talk about everything when chatting.
Jiang Qiao knew that Yu Can, the man who had harassed Lin Qin'er last time, was a small-time gangster who relied on his parents for support. He often came to Lin Qin'er for haircuts and gradually fell in love with her, but his way of pursuing her was very shameful, using coercion and inducement.
Lin Qin'er had no plans to fall in love or get married. Even if she did, she didn't want to find such a scoundrel. Besides, she was obsessed with looks. Lin Qin'er rejected him seriously, but Yu Can seemed to be obsessed with her and would harass her every once in a while.
I happened to be bumped into by Jiang Qiao last time.
Speaking of this, Lin Qin'er was like she had eaten dynamite. She was so angry that she kept talking and scolded Yu Can.
I don’t know how long it took, but Shu Xiaoli’s hair was finally cut.
Shu Xiaoli has a round face, which suits her a layered hairstyle. Lin Qin'er's skills are indeed online. Her hair is cut to the collarbone, with just the right layers. Most importantly, she finally has no thick bangs, revealing her round eyes.
Now it looks more spiritual.
Lin Qin'er was very satisfied, "Not bad."
Shu Xiaoli smiled shyly, "Thank you."
Lin Qin'er: "You're welcome. I'll give you a special price of forty!"
Jiang Qiao: "Why am I eighty?"
Lin Qin'er packed up her things and put them back where they belonged. "No, it's nothing. I'll charge whatever you want."
Jiang Qiao: ...
