Some people look menacing on the surface, but are actually taken to task.

Wu Lin thought Ye Wang's haircut was just a matter of picking the right one from one of the several salons around the school, after all, his rounded hair was not too demanding for a barber.

Unsurprisingly, hairstyles are not a requirement for barbers, but Wang's students are.

The SUV was traveling on the road along the river. Outside the window of the car, the green trees formed a bank, and among the willows swaying in the wind, the shimmering surface of the river was vaguely revealed.

At the end of the river road, there is a busy neighborhood with high-grade buildings and stores of all kinds. On holidays, the bustling scene of traffic is so full that it is difficult to find a parking space on the street.

Ye Wang, on the other hand, weaves in and out with ease, turning in and out, and finally stopping in front of a barber store with a very impressive facade.

How grand is it?

It's the fact that its stores are wide enough to plan out enough parking spaces within the front range to satisfy customers.

"Is this it?" Wu Lin looked through the windshield, at the richly decorated store, and asked Ye Wang, "Are you sure it's just a crew cut?"

If you don't come with a washing, cutting, dyeing, ironing and blowing system, you will feel sorry for Tony inside.

Ye Wang parked the car and turned his head to glance at him, "What else do you think I can do?"

Wu Lin stared at his hair, not quite two inches long, for a moment, "Never mind, there really isn't much room for play."

With Ye Wang's current hairstyle, the only way for Mr. Tony to show off his talent is to shave his head.

So the question comes back to the original point.

Wu Lin: "You've been cutting at its house?" Ye Wang's familiarity with the surrounding terrain doesn't seem like a first-time visit.

"Uh-huh." Ye Wang unbuckles his seatbelt and gets out of the car.

Wu Lin followed, "How did you find this place?" It's too far from the school.

Ye Wang : "Close to home."

Wu Lin froze and subconsciously looked around the perimeter, not realizing that was the reason.

But now that school is in session, "Can't you just set up a second barber spot near the school?"

Ye Wang : "It's not necessary."

Wu Lin: "Your hair needs to be cut once every half a month or so, isn't it too much trouble to come here all the time?"

Ye Wang: "Get used to it."

Wu Lin : "You're quite long-lasting."

As he said this, they were walking back and forth into the barbershop.

Wu Lin's casual jibe, overlaid with the barbershop apprentice's "Hello", doesn't ring true.

Ye Wang, however, was on his feet and looked back at Wu Lin.

Wu Lin couldn't stop and almost bumped into him, but managed to stand still and asked, "What's wrong?"

"It's fine." Ye Wang turned his head back again and continued on his way to the store.

Wu Lin is confused, what is this?

Ye Wang also felt that he was jerking off. At that moment just now, he actually wanted to ask Wu Lin, do you think it's good or bad for me to be like this?

What kind?

Long love.

A word that Ye Wang had never thought of before, but which seemed particularly romantic when it came out of Wu Lin's mouth.

Ye Wang has never been one to romanticize, much less ask others what they think of him.

But in that split second of turning around, he had both.

The store was crowded with customers, and the barbers were busy, so Wu Lin and Ye Wang's arrival made them look up out of professional habit.

Most read it and then looked down and went back to work.

Only one of the big brothers, a stocky man, saw Ye Wang and greeted him naturally, "Here we are."

Ye Wang nods and asks, "How many more?"

"No more," said Big Brother, "you're next."

Apparently, this is Tony, Wang's student fixer-upper.

Wu Lin looked at his brother's inch and the tattoos on his arms and had no doubt at all that Ye Wang's fierce round inches came from this teacher.

--Q: Using Ye Wang as an example, what is the secret to creating the perfect hairstyle in one sentence?

--A: The barber, the client, the haircut, and the temperament are three in one.

The apprentice who led them in was a newcomer and didn't know Ye Wang, and when he saw him, he realized that he had a familiar barber and was an old customer, so he went straight to the next process: "Two of you come with me to this side to wash your hair first ......."

Ye Wang said, "He doesn't cut."

Wu Lin, who was about to follow, quickly made his intentions clear: "I'll cut it."

Ye Wang frowns, "Didn't you come with me?"

"I'm here now, so I'll just cut it," Wu Lin pinched a lock of his own bangs and showed it to Ye Wang, "Don't you think my hair's getting a little long, too?"

Ye Wang didn't hesitate for a second: "Don't think so."

Wu Lin moved a little closer to him, "Look again, it's blocking your eyes."

Too close.

Wu Lin's eyes were like a misty lake.

Ye Wang was lost in thought for a moment.

But soon he woke up and simply reached out and lifted up all of Wu Lin's bangs.

The hair under her palm was soft and well-behaved.

Sure enough, it's better to have a longer hand.

"It's not long, there's no need to cut it." Ye Wang let go of his hand, not at all guilty of opening his eyes.

Wu Lin frowned, he didn't believe it, his hair is his own, he still can't make the decision: "Cut."

Ye Wang : "It's not necessary."

Staring at each other in a stalemate for several seconds.

Wu Lin suddenly softened his tone, with a bit of pity: "It's especially hard for the hair to block the eyes."

Ye Wang: "......"

The apprentices, who had been watching the whole thing, sighed silently in their minds.

Some people look fierce on the surface, but they are actually taken to task.

After washing his hair, the hunky big brother's side also finished his last customer.

Ye Wang sat over there, and Wu Lin found another barber who sat next to Ye Wang.

There was light music playing in the store, soothing, gentle.

Wu Lin looked at herself and Ye Wang in the mirror, almost synchronized with the barber's covering, with only their heads exposed, just like the children in the kindergarten sitting side by side with their bibs and having their meals.

Didn't hold back, secretly curved the corners of his mouth.

But Ye Wang captured it anyway.

"What's the fun in that?"

"No," Wu Lin says, "I'm trying to figure out what kind of haircut to get."

Ye Wang asks, "What do you want to cut?"

Wu Lin looked at him, suddenly tickled with an impulse: "How about a round inch?"

Ye Wang: "No."

Wu Lin: "Why?"

Ye Wang: "Not for you."

The barber took the air blower and prepared to blow dry Wu Lin's hair, and laughed at his words, "Round inches are the best test of face value, but I think you're fine."

Wu Lin glances proudly at Ye Wang in the mirror, see?

Ye Wang did not look at Wu Lin, but glanced at Wu Lin's barber through the mirror.

Barber: "......"

Why do I always feel like I'm being glared at.

The hair dryer turned on and the cacophony drowned out all sound.

The barber is blow-drying Wu Lin's hair while looking through the mirror at his hunky colleague beside him.

Because his coworker had already cued him several times with his eyes.

The barber inquired raising an eyebrow: ?

The big brother's eyes desperately signaled to Ye Wang in front of him: listen to this customer.

Barber: He cut his own round inch and won't let his buddy cut it? It doesn't make sense.

Brother Kenji: Reason doesn't matter.

Barber: So what's important?

Brother Fit: I've got a card for this one.

Barber: get.

After a few minutes, the blower turned off and the air was re-surrounded by quiet, soft music.

Wu Lin's hair was half-dry, and the barber smoothed it out with his hands, "Have you decided what kind of cut you want?"

"Just round inches," Wu Lin made up his mind, "I want to try it."

Ye Wang's brow was knotted, and if he wasn't now sealed in the barber's chair, he'd definitely want to drag Wu Lin into a small dark room for a private chat about life and aesthetics.

But before he opened his mouth, the barber first voiced his advice: "Or else, you reconsider. In fact, you cut round inch itself is not a big problem, you have three-dimensional features, I think the cut can also be quite refreshing spirit ......."

Wu Lin was getting more and more confused, "Then what's the problem?"

Barber: "I think, you and your friend have their own temperament, there is no need to have a whole head shape, look like twins."

Wu Lin: "......"

The description of twins successfully stopped Wu Lin's bold idea.

"Then just watch the cut." Wu Lin is actually not too picky about her hairstyle.

"OK," the barber sighed in relief, his tone immediately lightening, "I'll just fix it up a little from what you had."

Wu Lin said, "Mainly the bangs, cut them shorter."

Barber: "No problem."

Wu Lin gave him a trusting smile and quieted down, giving the other man full authority.

Ye Wang is very satisfied.

When Brother Kin Suk saw Ye Wang's satisfaction, he was also satisfied.

In fact, to be honest, he helped Ye Wang, not because of the other side of the card of a few thousand dollars, mainly because he, as a senior hair stylist, to familiar customers heavy feelings.

Well, extra heavy.

For the rest of the day, Wu Lin and Ye Wang sat next to each other, looking at themselves in the mirror and occasionally at each other, relaxed and cozy.

Wu Lin feels like she's been letting her whole body down.

Too lazy to think about family relationships, too lazy to think about the future of Awakening, too lazy to worry, too lazy to worry. This minute, this second, there was peace in his heart.

Only the afternoon sun, soft music, the aroma of the coffee shop next door, and Ye Wang beside me.

Wu Lin and Ye Wang came out of the barbershop fresh and clean.

Wu Lin's hair isn't cut too much, but the bangs are quite a bit sharper, revealing pretty eyes and a bit of a polished forehead.

The floor looked like it had just rained, the off-white tiles stained a light dark color, and the air was damp with rainwater.

But it was clear that the sky was still sunny.

Wu Lin looks up and wonders to himself, "Is it raining?"

The apprentice who had escorted them both out was about to close the glass door when he sniffed, "It just rained a little, it's sun rain."

As soon as the words left his mouth, the tip of Wu Lin's nose went a little cold.

The raindrops are falling again.

But it is not continuous, a long interval, only two or three drops again, just like the sky responsible for the rain also lazy, want to get up, just dump a few drops, leisurely leisure.

In the spring sun, raindrops fall to the ground in glistening light.

Hair was suddenly rubbed and messed up.

"I'll take you to eat something delicious." Ye Wang said.

Wu Lin: "Now?"

"Let's go." Ye Wang took the lead and turned around.

"Hey? You're not driving?" Wu Lin followed.

Ye Wang : "It's very close, just a few steps."

Wu Lin: "Don't walk so fast--"

Ye Wang: "You're going too slow."

Wu Lin: "......"

sun In the rain, two people walked down the long street, one after the other.

The prettiest rain, the best friends, the most carefree holidays.

Suddenly, Wu Lin wished that this street had no end, and that he and Ye Wang could keep walking like this for the whole of their youth.
