Honest Beta gets scammed

Inside a high-end private beauty salon.

Xu Shuang was wearing a face mask, sinking into a leather recliner, surrounded by three or four beauticians serving her, while she focused all her attention on her phone.

Her fingertips tapped rapidly on the screen, her expression focused. Although her face, covered by a face mask, didn't reveal much of her expression, her exposed eyes occasionally curved into crescents, and the corners of her mouth turned up slightly, revealing her good mood.

Fang Yuehan, who was lying on another chair, glanced at her and understood what was going on.

"I heard you've been playing dating games with a young model lately?"

Upon hearing this, Xu Shuang finally looked up from her phone screen and gazed at Fang Yuehan with a hint of curiosity in her eyes.

"I thought you wouldn't ask me."

No wonder Xu Shuang was surprised.

Fang Yuehan was her best friend, but this eldest daughter of the Fang family was always decisive and focused on her career, rarely paying attention to her romantic affairs.

Fang Yuehan closed her eyes as the beautician massaged her head. His voice was calm and even: "I just noticed you've been smiling at your phone a lot lately, so I just asked casually."

"Pfft." Xu Shuang laughed.

Just then, the beautician helped her remove the face mask.

She sat up, casually tossed her phone to Fang Yuehan, her face full of smiles: "My little girlfriend is so cute, every word she says hits the nail on the head, it's hard not to smile."

Fang Yuehan casually picked up her phone and started swiping.

She scrolled through the chat history, raising an eyebrow slightly.

Why is she badmouthing He Xiangchen? Did you tell her something negative about He Xiangchen?

"Oh dear!"

Mentioning this, Xu Shuang couldn't help but laugh. She took her phone back and laughed heartily.

"I'm just putting on a little persona, you know."

"I told her that my previous marriage was extremely unhappy, that my ex-husband was a scumbag who not only had affairs but also emotionally abused me, and that my family forced me to turn a blind eye... Well, it wasn't entirely a lie, right?"

"She's so cute. She believed me right away and felt so sorry for me. She even promised me that after we get married, she would never treat me like my scumbag ex-husband did."

Fang Yuehan smirked as she listened, "Hehe, what a filial daughter."

Xu Shuang didn't care about her best friend's mockery at all. She rested her chin on her hand and said to herself, "It's a deal. When I get married, you have to be my bridesmaid."

"marry?"

"yes."

Fang Yuehan sat up straight. The beautician removed the face mask from her face, and she looked at Xu Shuang with a surprised expression.

"Are you serious? You really want to marry her?"

"Uh, why not?"

Xu Shuang blinked and asked, "Now that we've talked enough, shouldn't we get married?"

Seeing Xu Shuang's expression, Fang Yuehan finally realized that Xu Shuang wasn't joking. She felt a headache coming on and rubbed her temples: "How can an ordinary person like her accept your married life with He Xiangchen?"

"What nonsense are you talking about?"

Xu Shuang's eyes crinkled as she gave her a reproachful look. "How could I possibly cheat? I'm a faithful and devoted woman, a loyal and faithful Omega."

Fang Yuehan: "..."

"Whatever makes you happy."

Fang Yuehan gave up on persuasion and instead raised more practical questions.

"But if you really get married, what about your parents? What about He Xiangchen? Your public image will be ruined, won't it?"

Xu Shuang waved her hand, clearly having already come up with a solution.

"It's okay, I'll talk to my parents. They won't interfere in my married life anyway. As for He Xiangchen... I'll just have him play along. He doesn't care about these things... Oh, by the way, Yuehan, are you looking for actors lately?"

Fang Yuehan: "Huh?"

……

Li Qing is busy again.

That's life for cattle and horses; no matter how the camera pans, they're always at work.

He shuttled between the private rooms, delivering drinks, tidying up, and dealing with various guests' requests. By the time he could finally catch his breath, it was already past 2 a.m.

As the noise in the club gradually subsided, Li Qing rubbed his sore shoulders, put the used tray back on the worktable, looked around, and saw Liu Yu squatting under the worktable playing on his phone. He then squatted down next to him, ready to steal a moment of leisure.

He breathed a long sigh of relief and turned to say a few words to Liu Yu, only to find that Liu Yu wasn't playing on her phone.

On Liu Yu's phone screen, there were dense numbers and a bunch of symbols he couldn't understand at all, and his fingers were rapidly tapping something on the screen.

Sensing someone beside her, Liu Yu turned her head and saw Li Qing staring at her phone screen. She smiled and explained, "I'm doing practice questions. I want to take the postgraduate entrance exam."

Taking the postgraduate entrance exam!

Li Qing was taken aback when he heard those two words, and then became respectful!

In his mind, anyone who could get into university was already an extremely accomplished intellectual. Liu Yu was now even taking the postgraduate entrance exam, which was simply terrifying!

He exclaimed sincerely, "You're amazing! I can't understand a single thing on this."

When Li Qing praised someone, his eyes were particularly sincere, filled with admiration.

Liu Yu initially thought it was nothing, but after being looked at like that, she felt a little embarrassed and coughed lightly, saying, "Cough, it's nothing, I'm not really sure yet."

He sniffed, composed himself, and prepared to continue working on his problems.

Seeing this, Li Qing didn't disturb him anymore, but just quietly squatted down and watched.

Seeing Liu Yu's focused expression as she answered quickly, Li Qing suddenly realized that Liu Yu was really different from him, or rather, different from everyone here.

He was destined not to stay at the Shengxin Club...

Damn!

Not only is the younger sister a golden phoenix buried in the yellow earth, but Liu Yu is also a hidden dragon temporarily lingering in the abyss.

As Li Qing was thinking, a waiter rushed in from outside and shouted at the work area.

"There are drunk customers fighting on the third floor! Someone please come and help!"

Upon hearing this, Li Qing and Liu Yu both looked up.

Liu Yu immediately put away her phone and made to get up, but Li Qing next to her pressed her down.

Li Qing chuckled, stood up, and even patted his well-developed biceps, saying to Liu Yu, "You're too skinny to go, just keep working on your problems. I'll go!"

Liu Yu glared at Li Qing because of the contemptuous tone, but Li Qing waved his hand and ran over with the waiter who had come to ask for help.

When Li Qing arrived at the scene, the corridor was already in chaos.

The golden retriever waiter and two other colleagues were struggling to break up the fight.

But these few skinny guys couldn't stop the two drunkards who were already intoxicated. One of the drunkards, wearing a floral shirt, broke free of his restraints and waved his fists, but his aim was off and he was about to punch the blond guy in the face.

Seeing this, Li Qing quickly stepped forward and punched him in the arm.

The golden retriever was terrified and stunned. Li Qing, without changing his expression, pushed the other person aside, then gave the drunk man in the floral shirt a bear hug, grabbed his waist, and pulled him back!

Finally, the two people who were wrestling were separated.

Seeing that he couldn't hit anyone, the drunk man who was being held by Li Qing became even more furious. He struggled desperately and raised his elbow to shove hard into Li Qing's face.

"Let me go! Let me go, you son of a bitch!"

"Bang!"

Li Qing took a solid hit, the pain bringing tears to his eyes and almost causing him to let go.

He forced back his breath, enduring the pain, and said, "Sir, you've had too much to drink. Calm down!"

"I'll drink your mother's ass! I'm not drunk!" the drunkard was still raving. "I'll fucking let you go! I'll fucking kill that shameless bastard today!"

"Who do you want to fuck to death?"

Upon hearing this, the drunkard immediately yelled back, "I fucking..."

However, he couldn't get the rest of his words out.
