There were many shops in front of Pengcheng Vocational School, and many of them were recruiting. Lin Shuyue went to the beauty store opposite the school. She was good-looking, and even though she was dressed in a rustic way, the owner of the beauty store, Sister Gu, immediately decided on her.
The basic salary is 300 yuan, and the rest of the income is calculated based on commission.
The store provides food and accommodation, and the accommodation area is just upstairs from the store. Lin Shuyue can start work after putting down her luggage.
Sister Gu asked another clerk named Wang Fen to comb Lin Shuyue's hair and put on makeup. Wang Fen was obviously not happy, and Lin Shuyue did not let her do it.
Wang Fen was wearing makeup, which was the popular style nowadays, with blue eyeshadow with pearlescent glitter, pink lips with pearlescent glitter, and hair styled into a chicken coop with mousse. Lin Shuyue really couldn't appreciate it.
"Sister Gu, I can also put on makeup, I can do it myself."
Lin Shuyue's words aroused Sister Gu's interest: "Okay, then you can do one for me."
Sister Gu's beauty shop also helps people with makeup and styling. Lin Shuyue took a look at the things on the dressing table, washed her face first, and applied lotion and sunscreen as a base before starting to put on makeup.
She likes a clear base makeup, earth-toned eyeshadow, and light pink blush. Although her hair is still in two big braids, she only needs to pull the braids, and the slightly rustic braids will immediately become lazy.
Sister Gu looked at Lin Shuyue's changed appearance, and her eyes lit up: "Xiao Lin, your makeup is very good, why didn't you wear makeup before?"
Lin Shuyue applied for this certificate. Her surname is still Lin, and her name is Lin Xiaoyue. Lin Shuyue has already explained: "I have always liked this. When I worked in a factory, I read a lot of fashion magazines and studied a lot. But my parents don't like this very much. They say it is not serious."
"I don't dare to wear makeup at home because my parents will scold me."
Sister Gu understood what Lin Shuyue said very well. Parents nowadays do not have a very good attitude towards girls wearing makeup. Sometimes when she goes home with makeup on, her mother will scold her.
Sister Gu often went home without makeup. She looked at the makeup on Lin Shuyue's face and liked it more and more.
"Come on, Xiao Lin, do some makeup for me, just like you." Sister Gu's makeup was exactly the same as Wang Fen's. Sister Gu originally thought she was very beautiful, but people always pursue the most beautiful. Lin Shuyue's fake bare face makeup captured Sister Gu's heart at once.
"Okay." Sister Gu went to the bathroom at the back of the store to wipe off the makeup she have while Lin Shuyue cleaned up the dressing table she had just used. Wang Fen curled her lips when she saw Lin Shuyue like this.
Sister Gu came back quickly and quickly applied the foundation. Lin Shuyue looked at Sister Gu's face shape. Her face shape was also very beautiful, but her eyebrows were deep and the bones under her cheeks were more prominent. Lin Shuyue applied a European and American makeup that was more suitable for her face shape.
"Sister Gu, I think your face shape is particularly suitable for European and American makeup. Do you want to try it?"
Sister Gu really didn't know what European and American makeup looked like, but the word European and American sounded very fashionable, so Sister Gu immediately agreed: "Okay, you put on some makeup for me."
With Sister Gu's permission, Lin Shuyue picked up the makeup brush and began to put on makeup. European and American makeup is relatively heavy and focuses on the depiction of facial features. Lin Shuyue focused on contouring and also emphasized eye makeup. The lipstick she chose was bright red. After finishing her makeup, Lin Shuyue curled her long hair into big waves.
After Lin Shuyue put down the curling iron, Sister Gu stood up and kept looking at herself in front of the mirror: "Xiao Lin, your technique is amazing! I used to think my face was ugly, but now that you put makeup on it, I feel like I'm a foreigner, so beautiful!"
As a subordinate, Lin Shuyue immediately responded cleverly: "Sister Gu, what you said that you're not good-looking is incorrect. Your facial features are so beautiful, three-dimensional and elegant."
Sister Gu obviously said she's not but she really doesn't think so. She certainly knew that she was beautiful, but the more beautiful she was, the higher her requirements for herself were. Now when she heard Lin Shuyue praising her, she immediately smiled and said, "You are so sweet."
Wang Fen also came over at this time and kept looking at Sister Gu.
Sister Gu felt that her jeans and red dress really didn't match her makeup, so she hurried upstairs. The second floor of the store was the dormitory for Sister Gu and her employees.
Wang Fen no longer had the arrogance she had just now, and kept asking questions beside Lin Shuyue.
Wang Fen originally had a bad impression of Lin Shuyue because she looked rustic and had never touched makeup before, so she had to teach her step by step. She really didn't want to teach anyone anymore. The girl who came to their store some time ago really couldn't be taught no matter how hard she tried, which left Wang Fen with a psychological trauma about teaching people. Now that Lin Shuyue can also put on makeup, and her level is even better than hers, Wang Fen no longer has the same emotion as before.
Lin Shuyue was not a person who would repay evil with kindness. She still remembered how many times Wang Fen rolled her eyes at her. When faced with her question, her expression was perfunctory. Wang Fen also knew what her attitude was just now. She was neither angry nor discouraged. Instead, she became more attentive.
Sister Gu came down quickly. She changed into a leopard print dress, which made her look more fashionable.
Sister Gu couldn't wait to go shopping: "Xiao Lin, you will be the makeup artist in our store from now on. I will give you 50 cents for every makeup you do, and I will give you one tenth of the products you sell. I have something to do now and I have to go out first. This is it. Ah Fen, you are a veteran employee of the store, please take care of Xiao Lin."
Sister Gu picked up her bag and left. Wang Fen also went out, and soon came back with two ice creams, and handed them to Lin Shuyue with a smile: "Xiao Lin, I was rude just now, I apologize."
Wang Fen is flexible. She has worked in this beauty store for two years and knows that the most important thing in this store is the skills. If you have good makeup skills, you will get a high salary and have the opportunity to climb up the social ladder. Before, there was a very beautiful girl in their store. She had just worked in the store for two months when someone took her home. She wore gold and silver every day and had a great life.
Wang Fen was very envious.
Seeing that she had apologized, Lin Shuyue took the ice cream and said, "Then I'll trouble Sister Ah Fen to take care of me from now on."
"Sure, sure."
Wang Fen was very attentive. While they were eating ice cream, she told Lin Shuyue some things to pay attention to in the store.
Although being a beauty store clerk was a stepping stone for Lin Shuyue, she was very serious by nature and tried to do her best in everything she did. She studied very hard and she was smart. Wang Fen didn't need to teach Lin Shuyue much as she remembered the prices of those items.
She taught with ease, and her attitude towards Lin Shuyue became better and better.
In the blink of an eye, it was five o'clock in the afternoon. The students of the vocational school came out for a stroll after school and lunch. Lin Shuyue took the initiative to stand at the door to greet them. She had a good figure and good makeup. Her white floral top was buttoned in an uneven manner, which added a sense of design. Coupled with her clear makeup and hairstyle, she immediately attracted the attention of the girls in the vocational school.
There is an ice skating rink near the vocational school, and every night, the rink is free for girls. Because of this free policy, female workers from nearby factories and students who don't have classes at night will go there to play.
When going out at night, you must dress up nicely. Those who have money like to put on makeup at beauty stores outside. Those who don't have much money put on makeup themselves or ask classmates to do it for each other.
Li Xiaolan is a girl who is not short of money. She originally wanted to go to a beauty store far away from school that has a better makeup technology to do her makeup, but after carefully observing Lin Shuyue's makeup, she changed her mind.
"Pretty girl, I want to have the same as your makeup, how much is it?"
"Including the hair style, it's three yuan, but if you use any accessories in the store, you have to pay extra." This is the general pricing in beauty stores. Li Xiaolan is a frequent customer of beauty stores, and she knows the rule that Lin Shuyue mentioned that accessories require extra payment.
"Okay, then you do the makeup for me. I want something similar to yours."
Lin Shuyue led Li Xiaolan into the store, and after she sat in front of the makeup mirror, she began to put on her third makeup of the day.
Because she knew during the conversation that Li Xiaolan was going to the skating rink, she put a little shimmering eyeshadow on the corners of Li Xiaolan's eyelids to brighten them, and she braided her hair into a fluffy side ponytail.
Li Xiaolan was very satisfied with her makeup, especially after her companions praised her skin for being particularly smooth after putting on makeup.
Since Li Xiaolan came, Lin Shuyue's business as a guide has been very good. From five to ten o'clock, Lin Shuyue never sat still and could not even drink a sip of water.
After seeing how booming her store's business was, Sister Gu stopped going out to play with her friends and instead helped out in the store.
Because there were many people coming to get their makeup done, Wang Fen also achieved a lot of results and she kept smiling all night.
At half past ten, Lin Shuyue was finally able to take a break. She sat on a stool, tilted her head back and drank a large bottle of water.
Sister Gu was counting today's accounts, smiling from ear to ear. By eleven o'clock, Wang Fen had finished cleaning the store. The three of them closed the store and went upstairs to sleep.
There are four rooms upstairs. Because there are few people, Lin Shuyue also has a separate small room. There are quilts and mattresses inside. Lin Shuyue took a shower and lay on the bed, taking out the mobile phone from the space and turning it on.
Messages came flooding in like a tide. Lin Shuyue replied to Lou Fengqin, Lin Shuxing and Lin Shuyang first, and then started to reply to others. Wu Dongyan was probably not very busy. As soon as Lin Shuyue's message was replied, her reply came.
The two chatted for a while, and Wu Dongyan repeatedly reminded Lin Shuyue to be careful.
Lin Shuyue went to bed only after she had replied to everyone's messages. She estimated that her name would reach the ears of the teacher surnamed Yu by tomorrow at the latest.
Business was not that good during the day, with only a few customers here and there, but after five o'clock more people came.
At around seven o'clock, Lin Shuyue saw a man in his forties chatting with the guard at the gate of the vocational and technical school opposite and looking at her.
Lin Shuyue had sharp ears and heard someone calling him Teacher Yu.
The second day passed equally busy, and on the third day, Lin Shuyue put on a white dress and the same fake natural makeup. This outfit made her look very pure. When Lin Shuyue was wiping the glass outside the door, a flash of light flashed by.
Lin Shuyue seemed unaware. She finished wiping the glass and went back to chat with Wang Fen. The flash flashed three times in total.
The fish is hooked.
On the fourth day of working in the beauty store, Lin Shuyue met Zhao Bing. He was dressed the same as usual. He came with a girl in her twenties. He did not recognize Lin Shuyue.
When the girl was buying skin care products, he stood by, looking at Lin Shuyue from time to time, with an indescribable smile on his face. The girl she brought bought a lot of skin care products, totaling more than 300 yuan, which was paid by Zhao Bing. Before leaving, Lin Shuyue and the girl named Tang Xianyan exchanged contact information.
In less than an hour, Lin Shuyue received a text message from Tang Xianyan, which asked about the use of skin care products. In order to match her personality, Lin Shuyue used all her heart to reply.
As they talked back and forth, the two gradually moved from talking about skin care products to talking about life. From then on, Tang Xianyan's chat style changed instantly, and a strong flavor of Zhao Bing came over her. Lin Shuyue pretended not to know and continued to chat enthusiastically with Zhao Bing, who was holding Tang Xianyan's phone.
And from that day on, Tang Xianyan would come to the store to get makeup done every time, and Zhao Bing would always accompany her.
Zhao Bing is patient, and Lin Shuyue is also patient.
It was not until the tenth day that Lin Shuyue started working at the beauty store that Tang Xianyan invited Lin Shuyue after she finished putting on her makeup: "Xiao Lin, we have a party today. Do you want to go and see it?"
Lin Shuyue was startled, but she didn't show it on her face: "No need, I don't even know anyone at your party, it would be so embarrassing to go!"
Tang Xianyan subconsciously glanced at Zhao Bing, who was still in a cheerful mood. Tang Xianyan didn't dare to look at him again, and continued to speak softly to Lin Shuyue: "What's the big deal? You'll get to know each other after a few visits. Let's go, let's go. We're meeting at the Haitian Club. Didn't you tell me last time that you wanted to go and have a look?"
Haitian Club is a high-end club in Pengcheng, which has KTV, billiard hall and other entertainment facilities. People coming and going are all from Pengcheng's upper class. After Zhao Bing, who was dressed in Tang Xianyan's skin, mentioned the facilities and services inside several times, Lin Shuyue showed her yearning at the right time.
Lin Shuyue didn't forget her own personality. She looked at Sister Gu. Tang Xianyan was already a big customer of the store. She had spent thousands of yuan on cosmetics and accessories in the past few days. Sister Gu was always kind to such big customers. "Xiao Lin, you've been here for half a month and you haven't had a rest yet. How about I give you a day off tonight?"
It's already past nine o'clock, and the makeup has been done, so giving Lin Shuyue a day off won't affect anything.
Lin Shuyue was still hesitant, so Tang Xianyan immediately stepped up and said, "Boss Gu has said so, so just go."
"Okay then, let me go upstairs and change my clothes." Lin Shuyue was wearing a short T-shirt and jeans, which was obviously not suitable for going to a party.
Zhao Bing gave Tang Xianyan a look, and Tang Xianyan immediately said, "Just wear the white dress you wore the other day. I think you look really beautiful in that dress."
Lin Shuyue wore the white dress again on the third day after Tang Xianyan came over. Zhao Bing's eyes lit up, and Tang Xianyan praised her lavishly.
Combining the photos that were secretly taken that day, Rong Lishui's words, and Tang Xianyan's words now, she knew that she was already on Teacher Yu's "roster" and that a big boss had chosen her.
Lin Shuyue went upstairs and after entering the room, the nano-clothing instantly changed into the white dress that Lin Shuyue had worn. She took out her cosmetics and touched up her face, then put on her white shoes, took out her mobile phone, sent a message to Wu Dongyan, and went downstairs.
Tang Xianyan was wearing a pink dress and standing in front of the Mercedes-Benz at the door with Zhao Bing waiting for her.
Lin Shuyue said goodbye to Sister Gu and Wang Fen, and got into the car driven by Zhao Bing under Wang Fen's envious gaze.
After getting in the car, Zhao Bing started talking to Lin Shuyue. This was the longest Zhao Bing and Lin Shuyue talked in the nearly one week since they met. Tang Xianyan would interject from time to time.
Soon, Lin Shuyue told the whole story of Lin Xiaoyue's fabricated family environment.
Both of her parents were from the mountainous area in the southwest. She had three younger brothers and sisters, and a seriously ill grandparent at home, so she was very short of money. The more Zhao Bing listened, the more satisfied he became.
It's good to be short of money. People like this are easy to grasp and control.
While they were chatting, they had already arrived at the Haitian Club.
Haitian Club is located in Pingjiang District. The entire Haitian Club is a four-story building with many light strips inside and outside the building. Colorful neon lights flash and illuminate the night sky. Luxury cars are lined up at the door, and two welcoming beauties wearing red slim-fitting cheongsams stand by the door.
Zhao Bing led Lin Shuyue and Tang Xianyan out of the car, and a doorman in a white shirt and black pants ran out. Zhao Bing threw the car keys over, and the doorman took the keys and drove the car to the underground parking lot.
Zhao Bing said to Lin Shuyue in a very gentlemanly manner: "Ms. Lin, please."
Zhao Bing now had none of the bossy attitude he had in the newspaper office, and he was a gentleman unlike himself. After Tang Xianyan got off the car, she put on a professional smile and spoke less.
"Please come in, Mr. Zhao."
The three of them walked into the club together. The beautiful receptionist at the door said "welcome", but the three of them ignored her.
Walking through the magnificent first floor lobby, at the elevator entrance, a beautiful girl in cheongsam was standing there. She pressed the elevator button before Lin Shuyue and the other two arrived. When the three of them walked to the elevator entrance, the elevator door just opened.
The three of them entered the elevator. There was a beautiful woman standing inside. She asked Zhao Bing which floor he wanted to go to and pressed the elevator button. Soft music started playing, and the elevator slowly rose and stopped on the third floor.
Coming out of the elevator, the decoration is the same as the first floor, but the corridor is covered with soft red carpet. At the door of each private room, there is a beautiful woman in cheongsam standing at the door.
Zhao Bing took Lin Shuyue to the door of one of the private rooms and pushed it open.
The room was very large, with a valuable black sofa placed against the wall, and a long glass coffee table in front of the sofa filled with snacks, fruit plates, and wine, including white beer, foreign beer, and red beer.
There were seven or eight men sitting on the sofa, with women of different styles sitting beside them. Two women stood in front of the empty space in front of the coffee table, singing and dancing.
When Zhao Bing and the other two came in, they pretended not to see anything and were not disturbed at all.
Zhao Bing found a sofa and sat down. One of the men, who was about forty-five or forty-six years old, looked at Lin Shuyue and said, "Mr. Zhao is a little late. We have already started for an hour."
Zhao Bing immediately raised his glass: "Please forgive me, Mr. Liu. Please forgive me, I mainly spent some time with my girlfriend today to have dinner and put on makeup."
Tang Xianyan, who was beside Zhao Bing, also poured herself a glass of wine: "Sorry, Mr. Liu, I will punish myself with three glasses."
Tang Xianyan drank three glasses of wine without waiting for Mr. Liu to speak.
Mr. Liu smiled and said, "Xiao Tang is still as voracious as ever. Who is this?"
"This is my friend, Lin Xiaoyue." Tang Xianyan finished speaking and smiled sweetly, "Boss Liu, my friend is only 18 years old, a young girl who has just entered society. Xiaoyue, this is Boss Liu, her family is in the mining business."
Tang Xianyan introduced Lin Shuyue to someone who always kept her in mind: "Hello, Mr. Liu. Hello, Mr. Liu."
Mr. Liu got up from his seat and sat next to Lin Shuyue, his eyes lingering on her fair neck, earlobes, and rosy lips: "Xiao Lin, right? This is our first meeting, and you're eighteen? You look so young!"
Mr. Liu was very familiar with the guests and started to recall the past, but he was talking about his own success. Lin Shuyue was impatient in her heart, but her face was full of admiration. Mr. Liu started to give Lin Shuyue wine halfway through his speech.
The purpose of mixing several kinds of alcohol together was obvious, which was to get Lin Shuyue drunk. What would happen if a woman got drunk? Anyone with a brain would know.
The rest of the people were also joining in the fun, and in a short while, Lin Shuyue had drunk seven or eight glasses of wine.
Under the dim light, Lin Shuyue took every sip of the wine, letting her mouth smell like alcohol, and transferred the rest into her backpack.
As they drank more and more, the people in the box changed their appearance. Some drank wine together with the women next to them, and some drank wine and poured it into the mouths of the women next to them. Most of the men put their hands on the chests of the women next to them. Those women were used to it and did not resist.
Tang Xianyan didn't know when she came to the side of a man named Section Chief Wang. At this moment, she was trapped in his arms, forced to endure his kiss. The moment she raised her head to be kissed on the neck, a drop of tears seemed to flash in the corner of her eyes.
The woman next to Zhao Bing had been replaced by the girl who was dancing when Lin Shuyue came in. The two started playing finger-guessing games, and whoever lost had to take off a piece of clothing. Zhao Bing's top was gone, and the woman's white shirt was put aside, revealing the small white vest underneath.
Lin Shuyue didn't look at it again, because the hand of Mr. Liu beside her was already on her leg. Lin Shuyue pretended to be confused, leaned back in the chair, clenched her hands into fists, and moved her legs away from Mr. Liu's hands as if she was drunk.
Mr. Liu came close to Lin Shuyue and called her several times. The warm and alcohol-smelling smell enveloped Lin Shuyue's side. Lin Shuyue's stomach churned and she almost vomited.
Mr. Liu came closer again, but Lin Shuyue held back and did not dodge.
Mr. Liu laughed and said, "Zhao Bing, I'm going upstairs to rest first. I'll call you later."
Zhao Bing put on his clothes and stood up: "Okay, okay, Mr. Liu, let me give you a hand."
The two men lifted Lin Shuyue up and walked to the lounge upstairs.
There is a room upstairs for Zhao Bing and others to inspect goods for a long time. They swiped their cards to enter. As soon as they entered the room, they saw a white bed with red gauze curtains around it. The TV was on the wall opposite the bed. The light was dim and there was a red night light on at the head of the bed.
Zhao Bing put the drunk Lin Shuyue down, and then said to Mr. Liu, "Mr. Liu, have fun inspecting the goods. If you are not satisfied with anything later, please feel free to contact me."
Mr. Liu smiled and nodded: "Okay, go down."
Zhao Bing closed the door. Mr. Liu looked at the unconscious girl in innocent clothes, took off his clothes, and went to the bathroom next door to take a shower.
The sound of water in the bathroom was heard. Lin Shuyue opened her eyes, took out a camera detector from her backpack, and quickly scanned the room. She got this camera detector at midnight last Thursday. It required three points. In order to get this thing and another dream talisman, Lin Shuyue also borrowed high-interest loans from the good and evil identification system, paying back thirty points for every twenty points she received.
After confirming that there were no cameras in the room, Lin Shuyue lay back on the bed. Just as she lay down, Mr. Liu came out.
He couldn't wait to pounce on Lin Shuyue, and just when he was about to overwhelm Lin Shuyue, Lin Shuyue turned over and the dagger in her hand was against Mr. Liu's neck.
