Chapter 284: Chapter 282: I’m Your First Client
Ye Xiaotong’s face still showed a blush, her forehead was covered with sweat, and the sweat had dampened the hair at her temples, with several strands sticking to her face.
She was very flustered, unable to straighten her dress properly, leaning against the wall in a disheveled state, feeling extremely awkward and helpless.
The young man who had just been entangled with her showed no signs of embarrassment at being caught; instead, he casually lit a cigarette and started smoking.
Wang walked in, her gaze circling back and forth between them.
This feeling made Ye Xiaotong suffocate.
She suddenly regretted not having resisted earlier, being so easily seduced by the young man, abandoning her resistance, and even indulging in the moment.
But Wang didn’t scold her for being shameless; instead, she smiled and patted her on the shoulder.
"Well done."
"It seems that women who have had children are indeed different, quick to adapt; you managed here well and even satisfied Zhang. You should do well with other clients in the future too."
This statement sounded very strange.
Ye Xiaotong raised her head in confusion, "What do you mean?"
"Hehe..."
Wang had an odd expression as she smiled, and the young man next to her also laughed.
He took a puff of his cigarette and blew the smoke directly in her face.
"Don’t you get it yet?"
"I’m your guide; I’m your first client."
"What we just did was to make you less averse to this kind of thing. After all, you quite enjoyed it earlier, right?"
"Now that you’ve taken this step, it’ll be easy to make money in the future. Many clients who come to get their hair washed have such needs. You just serve them here, as we just did, properly serving your clients, and won’t it be easy to make money?"
Ye Xiaotong finally understood.
They were saying she was selling herself!
But she...
She was ready to refute, to insist she wasn’t like that, but recalling the money and deposit she received yesterday, she pressed her lips together tightly.
Unknowingly, she really had become a woman who sells herself, and even she wasn’t aware of it!
Perhaps her expression was too devastated, the young man touched her face.
"It’s alright, what’s the big deal? Making money, not a shame."
"We provide the clients, you just serve them, and we split the earnings, so everyone profits. Isn’t that great? We’ll soon be rich."
Wang also comforted her.
"I know you intended to learn skills here and then open your own shop. Do you think I can’t see through your little plans? But where can opening a hair salon compare to this line of work in earnings?"
"Even if you run a hair salon for a year and cut hair for others for a year, you might not earn as much as this job does in a month."
"And if you encounter a generous client and manage to please them, a day’s earnings could equal what you’d earn in a month, like Zhao from yesterday."
"I’m telling you, Zhao is very wealthy; if you win him over, you’ll be earning a lot."
It turned out, they all knew.
She had thought she hid it well.
But to others, she was just a joke.
Ye Xiaotong suddenly felt Wang looked so unfamiliar.
Clearly such a warm-hearted lady, yet so deep in scheming.
And the young man who had just been so intimate with her now also looked less appealing.
His face blurred amidst the smoke, and the smile that should have been affectionate became malicious.
Suddenly, she really wanted to escape from here.
But the young man hugged her tightly.
She struggled a couple of times to no avail, getting dragged to the side and made to sit on his lap.
This time, Ye Xiaotong was utterly unwilling, even feeling deeply humiliated, yet she couldn’t change anything, couldn’t run away.
And this time, it was right in front of Wang!
Wang was watching them right there!
"Let go of me! I want to go home!"
Ye Xiaotong’s face alternated between red and white as she desperately hit the man’s arm.
She was scared to death; another round with him brought her no joy.
But the man became increasingly vicious.
Women’s strength is nowhere near men’s, especially in this situation.
Ye Xiaotong shook her head desperately but still couldn’t end it all.
Eventually, she could only close her eyes in humiliation.
And then, the curtain blocking the outside was lifted again.
Wang’s son, Wang Gang, appeared here.
Another witness!
Ye Xiaotong felt extremely humiliated and ashamed, but the young man holding her offered no opportunity for her to be ashamed.
Ultimately, Ye Xiaotong was forced to nestle in the young man’s arms under two malicious gazes.
"Still want to run?"
The young man pinched her waist viciously; Ye Xiaotong shuddered, shedding desperate tears.
"No, not running anymore."
She had made a mistake yesterday.
She shouldn’t have accepted that money from the very start.
From that moment, she had stepped wrong every step, already fallen into the trap set by these people.
They tempted her to abandon reason, dissolved into fake emotions.
Then unraveled everything, personally destroying her dignity with playfully scrutinizing eyes and sarcastic comments.
Now Ye Xiaotong felt she no longer had any dignity; she was no longer a clean woman.
From the moment she was no longer the only man, Xie Fengmian, in her life, she had already entered into another world.
At this point, they all knew where she lived, her children, her family. Using these to threaten her, how could she run?
Where could she run to?
Hadn’t she brought this on herself?
"Zhang, thank you for your hard work. Please continue to introduce clients in the future. This girl has a lot of potential."
Wang had a high regard for Ye Xiaotong’s abilities.
She believed that in such circumstances, Ye Xiaotong’s quick acceptance was remarkable, proving she wasn’t inherently someone with strong moral and ethical convictions.
This was precisely the most crucial quality for this kind of work.
The less morality, the more you can earn!
Zhang Mingzhe moved Ye Xiaotong to sit beside him and wiped the sweat from his face, also dripping with sweat.
"It’s truly not easy; you came in and interrupted our good time just now, really held me back."
"But fortunately, she’s still quite obedient and cooperative, a good seedling. Training her well will definitely be profitable for us."
Ye Xiaotong wiped away tears while rearranging her clothes, listening to their conversation.
Unexpectedly, Wang Gang suddenly grabbed her wrist.
Ye Xiaotong was very tired, instinctively trying to shake free.
Wang Gang, however, hugged her tightly, breathing heavily.
"Xiaotong, from the first day you came to the shop, I liked you a lot. Now it’s finally my turn, isn’t it?"
"Besides, in the future, you’ll definitely have to accompany more than one client a day. Let’s practice a bit today."
Ye Xiaotong’s eyes widened, "No! I just... with him..."
She instinctively looked at Zhang Mingzhe, but he had no concerns, and even encouraged her.
"You can do it. I’ve personally verified it; there won’t be any mistakes."
"Try it with Wang Gang; you’ll likely need to practice more in the future. Don’t worry, Wang Gang is not bad, he won’t make you feel bad."
Ye Xiaotong was in complete shock, but soon she realized.
Indeed.
This man was precisely someone who did this exact work.
How could he have any real feelings for her?
Then what use was it to seek help from him?
Instead...
