For the hair salon named ‘Tony Boy’ which was situated near F University, today was their lorious day ever since they had first opened This hair salon had gathered s, heavy make-up and wore flamboyant clothes All the customers who had visited here were people with very peculiar tastes And today, the two xiao cao who represented men from F University with the best taste, appeared at Tony Boy simultaneously
Tony, the er of Tony Boy, had his face streaked with tears as he smiled widely Ah, today was the most historic of Tony Boy ever since they had first entered the preh-end society!
Wearing Chinese heavy es in the countryside, Tony trembled in excitement form head to feet He decided to personally create a hairstyle for these two xiao cao which was rich with ‘Tony Style’ and would astonish of all F University
At this ’s mood contrasted starkly with Tony’s intense elation and excitement Instead…he felt an unparalleled pain in his balls¹
[1] 蛋疼: in figurative teritated and anxious
“Zhang Lingyi, are you certain you want to get our hair done here?” Ever since Zhang Lingyi had co with a s had felt apprehensive However, he had never iyi’s taste would actually be this heavy
This store Tony Boy, which was situated on the grounds of F University had a si² fro suspected that this was Zhang Lingyi’s revenge against hiift yesterday
[2] 芙蓉姐: Sister Furong, also known as Sister Lotus She was fro, China and received ide notoriety in 2005 for the posts she uploaded onto the internet (More infor/wiki/Sister_Furong)
“Shou shou” Zhang Lingyi stared resolutely at wang Guangning His sincere expression caused wang Guangning to feel doubtful, as if he was adopting a suspicious attitude without proper justifications³ “Did you know, ever since the first time I met you, I had hoped that there would be a day when you could coe your hairstyle for once!”
[3] 以小人之心度君子之腹: to gauge the heart of a gentleman with one’s own mean of measure I found a few examples of how to translate this in different contexts, and finally decided on the one I used above
Zhang Lingyi didn’t lie to wang Guangning When he had first ht that this person looked very unpleasant Hence, when he discovered this wonderful hair salon, Tony Boy, he had alished for a day ang Guangning could come here and have his hair done
He didn’t expect that his hich he had thought to be impossible would actually be achieved today!
This world shouldn’t be so beautiful!
wang Guangning silently watched Zhang Lingyi’s expression of eagerness and wide sarding this oes both ways You’re trying to play me, how could I not retaliate?
wang Guangning didn’t knohy the four words of a ‘love and hate relationshi+p’ appeared in his heart Ihed with sorrow
fuck, this was just the result of hiht?
The two of thee mirror and stared at the heavy metal style With a red coiffure, Tony held a pair of scissors and walked towards the of excite
Then, let us just act recklessly together⁴ We’ll see who loses more face than the other at the end!
[4] 奇葩: used to describe so that is very odd or unusual; someone who behaves outside of social norms
“Have these two customers decided upon what kind of hairstyles you would like? Or would you like rily and Zhang Lingyi and wang Guangning’s hair “The hairstyles that we design are coood at the japanese or Hallyu styles The two of you are so handsome, if that’s coupled that with the hairstyle customised for you both by Tony Boy, then you’ll definitely look incredibly cool It will immediately attract all the female students at F University…”
What japanese or Hallyu styles? This was obviously the style of that faht?
wang Guangning silently ridiculed
Then, as if in response to his ridicule, Zhang Lingyi spoke to Tony with a particularly serious expression, “No, I’ve already decided what hairstyle to do You just have to follow this” As he spoke, he pulled out a printed piece of paper in colour from his pocket and handed it to Tony
wang Guangning stretched his neck and peeked at it, then instantly jolted as his scalp tingled He al
daroup from Vietnam, HKT!
On the coloured piece of paper that Zhang Lingyi had printed, was evidently a picture from Weibo of the Vietnam band HKT
Initially, when Tony heard that Zhang Lingyi had already thought of what hairstyle he wanted, he was unhappy since it meant he would be unable to exhibit his creativity Then, upon being given the picture, his eyes shone and he beamed with joy
“I didn’t expect that this handsoood taste HKT’s style has recently been or flagshi+p product, it’s both stylish and do In particular, it has the style of a superstar, especially this one…” Tony pointed his finger, the long nail landing on the ‘superstar’ with the fringe as standing in thethe trend and i this hairstyle is perfect!”
Ah, of course it’s the right choice! Zhang Lingyi expressed his satisfaction at Tony’s explanation He just knew that he should come and find Tony to do this hairstyle, only he could style it like the original!
At the side, Zhang Lingyi nodded his head then quickly pointed at wang Guangning in an accurate move, “No, not me He is the one ants this hairstyle”
A chill splashed doang Guangning’s spine As he watched Tony turn his passionate gaze shi+ft towards his own body, wang Guangning suddenly had the iyi
However, as a man, he would do as he said
Although the incarnation of a snarling deity had already e still sue and nodded his head with a twisted expression, “Yes, I want this hairstyle”
Zhang Lingyi, you dare let me become a HKT brother ⁵
[5] The sentence that follows this is 我就敢让你纵横金链夹角拖鞋界, does anyone kno to translate this? All I understand is that wang Guangning is threatening Zhang Lingyi in his ’ TT – TT
Tony then once again enthusiastically told wang Guangning that in all of G city, only he could reproduce the original intensity of HKT’s hairstyle He assured that even the length of the hair on his te would be able to smile proudly once he stepped into the campus
As a result, wang Guangning became even more worried
After co’s spirit, Tony turned and asked Zhang Lingyi, his eyes bright, “And what does this handsome brother prefer as his hairstyle”
Thinking that there was absolutely no hairstyle in the world that could surpass HKT, Zhang Lingyi cal and said, “I’ll ask him”
wang Guangning sharply swept his gaze over Zhang Lingyi, distressed to find that he really could not think of any hairstyle which existed that was beyond HKT’s style Hence, he turned around in an especially mischievous manner, “Bald!”
Tony: “……”
Zhang Lingyi: “……”
Tony laughed, “Is this handso?”
wang Guangning replied in a fir bald was the syyi, what do you think?” That last sentence clearly carried the hint of a threat
Zhang Lingyi hesitated in his heart, should he continue this love and hate relationshi+p ang Guangning, or just give up and cohly valued his appearance, he’d rather die than have to swagger into the city with a bald head…however, it see had really become the embodiment of a sha ma te⁶!
Idiot!
[6] 杀马特: ‘shā mǎ tè’ (loanword frorants- usually of low education, with exaggerated hairstyles, heavy s and so on
Zhang Lingyi was at a loss for a while, but ultimately his love for his appearance was unable to resist his wish to see wang Guangning becoyi said with a serious expression, “Yes, that’s right I particularly want a very et started!”
[7] 师傅: in this case, it’s used to refer to a qualified worker
Tony’s expression was as if he had just eaten shi+t, and he was lifeless for half a day before finally swinging his hips towards wang Guangning At the same time, he directed a shout into the back of the store, “Eric, Eric…quickly come and out and shave off all the hair for this handsome brother…”
He waited for a long time, but no one responded Tony’s expression sunk and he put his hands on his hips before shouting again, “Li Guodong, you dead person! Did you not hear me? There’s customers out here, you better roll out quickly!”
“I’ out, dressed quite si, he replied in an elish name…”
At this point in tiue anxiousness
The evening was cold, and a chilling wind rustled in the air Various kinds of dead leaves littered the street, just like a classical scene shot from one of Wu Yu Sen’s⁸ films It see in the breeze
