What immediately appeared on the director’s monitor was the exquisite and beautiful Nan An, but there was always a faint sense of alienation in her eyes.
After crying at home last night, she made a very last-minute decision when she woke up early today. 𝑛𝑜𝑣𝐄𝑙𝑛𝐞xt.𝗰𝞸𝗆
Nan An wanted to shave her head!
She wrapped her coat tightly around herself and walked into the barbershop on the street. The people of Country F in this town didn’t seem to like haircuts very much. There wasn’t even a single person in this shop.
As Nan An pushed the door open and entered the shop, the owner’s not-so-enthusiastic welcome sounded. “Welcome! Do you need any help?”
A very authentic voice speaking in Country F’s language sounded in Nan An’s ear, but what appeared in front of her was a face that could make her feel slightly at ease.
Nan An sighed imperceptibly. She looked at the shop owner and said softly, “I want a haircut.” Then, she sat in front of a mirror.
When Nan An spoke in Country F’s language, her voice was very pleasant. It had a comfortable feeling that made one’s pores open, and there was a hint of sexiness in her lazy tone.
The owner was pure Chinese to begin with. He looked at the cold girl in front of him and raised his eyebrows. After making a helpless gesture, he walked behind Nan An and said, “Do you have any requests, Miss? What kind of look do you want?”
Nan An didn’t answer the shop owner’s question. She was silent for a long time before saying slowly, “Cut it all off.”
When she said this, she spoke in a very authentic Chinese language.
The shop owner was stunned for a moment and subconsciously changed his language. He asked in confusion, “Cut it all off? Why do you want to do that?
Your hair is so pretty. Wouldn’t it be a pity to cut it?”
Feeling the faint coldness and alienation on Nan An, the shop owner suddenly fell silent for a moment and said with a slightly probing tone, “What’s wrong, pretty girl? Did you fall out of love? Did your boyfriend do something to let you down? Is that why you are so angry and want to cut your hair? You’re so pretty, how could he bear to hurt you! I’m telling you, young people nowadays, all of them…
He seemed to have confirmed that Nan An was unhappy because she fell out of love, so he started nagging, wanting to make her happy, but it didn’t seem to have any effect.
Nan An looked at herself and the shop owner in the mirror and said in a low voice, “I’m not heartbroken. I have brain cancer, and my hair loss is very bad, so I want to shave it all off at once.”
Hearing that, the shop owner suddenly froze. He opened his mouth slightly and there was a hint of surprise in his eyes, as well as a lot of complexity and oblivion.
After a while, he sighed slightly and looked at Nan An in the mirror. He said gently, “Birth, old age, illness, and death are the most unpredictable things in the world. You’re still so young. Don’t be so negative and pessimistic! If you can be treated, try your best! Isn’t it a pity to cut such beautiful hair like this?”
Hearing that, Nan An looked up at the shop owner in the mirror. “Thank you. But cut it anyway.”
She said as she heaved a sigh of relief and slowly explained, “I’m not pessimistic. In fact, I’m already prepared to accept death, but I can’t accept myself becoming weaker day by day. I want to live a carefree and casual life.
Seeing my hair decrease bit by bit every day is even more unacceptable for me. I don’t want to spend a lot of time lamenting my vulnerability every day with the amount of time I have left. So, please help me once, okay?”
Nan An said this very calmly. Her eyes were a bit red, but her eyes were full of determination and indifference.
Hearing that, the shop owner’s expression stiffened a bit. He didn’t say anything else, but sighed deeply and started to cut Nan An’s hair.
This girl, who walked into the salon alone and asked for all her hair cut, seemed to be especially lonely. The owner of the shop felt that he couldn’t imagine what this girl had experienced before she walked in.
And what was the reason that made this girl so strong and stubborn?
“Of course.” The shop owner adjusted the expression on his face and replied with a forced smile..
