Ning Youguang refused to go shopping with Gu Xi, but she was willing to accompany her to the concert venue earlier on the day of the concert.
However, her suggestion was also rejected by Gu Xi.
The specific reason was:
"We need to scout the location a day in advance. No need to go too early on the concert day, even though going early ans you can take photos, buy support items, and get free souvenirs from fan clubs, there are too many people. It’s easy to lose things, and with no place to rest if exhausted, and even queues for the restroom are crazy."
"If you’re worried about losing things, we can just bring fewer items." Ning Youguang sat in the office preparing a lesson plan.
With final exams approaching at the University of Science and Technology of China, as a good teacher who cares about students, she needed to outline the important points for them.
"I’m afraid of losing the tickets!"
"???"
Ning Youguang looked at Gu, a fanatic whose expression in the video seed like she was guarding a treasure from prying eyes.
As a rational bystander.
Teacher Ning secretly decided to maintain a superficial "plastic sisterhood" with Gu Xi for the ti being.
She didn’t want to waste ti scouting with her in advance, nor did she want to do odd preparation work just to watch a concert with her.
If the fanatic likes to fuss, that’s her business, she absolutely won’t dive in!
The result was.
Two nights before Zhou Tang’s concert, she once again received a WeChat ssage from Gu Xi.
[Gu Xi: Because Tony’s perm is too ugly, I’ve been crying on the roadside for half an hour.]
"???"
Ning Youguang, about to sleep, was quite baffled but greatly shocked.
So, she sent a video call to see what was going on.
On the other side, Gu Xi quickly answered her video call.
But Ning Youguang didn’t see her in the phone cara.
Instead, she heard her sobbing and saw the dim, hazy lights of a small park by the street at ten at night in midsumr, with little insects flying under the lights.
"What’s ugly about it? Could it be that you’re not used to the new hairstyle yet?" She observed for ten seconds and cautiously asked, "Can you turn the video around and let see."
Gu Xi on the other side was silent for a long ti, finally switched the cara, allowing her to slowly see her new hairstyle clearly.
[...Indeed, getting a perm is an essential test of sisterly bonds!]
Completely seeing Gu Xi’s hairstyle, Ning Youguang fell into silence.
Gu Xi, seeing her silent face, collapsed even more, "Are you secretly trying not to lie and say my hair looks great, right? I’ve never been this ugly in my life!"
Teacher Ning, using her many years of honed emotional intelligence, could only muster, "The Tony you found really went overboard this ti."
Gu Xi imdiately burst into tears, "Right? I had him redo it three tis, costing 2888 yuan, with perming, coloring, and repairs, yet he still didn’t repent, styling my hair into this ss, and he called it art; I might as well damn the art! It made want to beat him up on the spot!"
[That’s really unnecessary!]
[Violence is not the answer!]
Ning Youguang empathized, continuing her silence.
...
Given Gu Xi’s perm disaster.
On the day of Zhou Tang’s concert, Ning Youguang drove over early to see Gu Xi and accompanied her to the hair salon for a new haircut.
A very simple style requiring no high technical skills, just cutting off the "artistic" disaster Tony crafted yesterday, ending in a basic ear-length bob like a grade-schooler’s.
It only cost 68 yuan, but because the hairstylist was conscientious, even with such a simple style, they cut it with care. After so trimming and cutting, the new style surprisingly suited Gu Xi’s face, highlighting her cuteness and delicate beauty.
The effect, compared to yesterday’s disastrous style, was like getting a new head.
Walking out of the salon again, Gu Xi under the flaming blue sky exclaid profoundly,
"Friends, don’t trust overly confident Tonys! Everyone should have their own stance on beauty."
Ning Youguang, amused beside her, chuckled, "Luckily, your hair grows fast, a beautiful hairstyle is just around the corner."
With the disastrous hairstyle properly fixed, Gu Xi’s mood brightened considerably, grandly waving to ntor Ning the beauty advisor, saying, "You’re right, sister, let’s go, I’ll treat you to beauty treatnts and a manicure, and after, we’ll do makeup, all done, we can go see the concert!"
"..."
Indeed, one can’t have high expectations for fanatics.
...
Zhou Tang’s concert starts at seven in the evening.
