Thud!
Upon hearing Shen Qiushan's "shocking" statement, Zhang Xue couldn't hold onto the tea tray, and it accidentally fell to the ground.
The salesperson offered you a two-thousand-yuan membership card, and you decided to get one for ten thousand.
Is Uncle really that rebellious?
The problem is, do you even have the means to be rebellious?
Ten thousand yuan!
For someone like you, a delivery worker, that's a month's worth of hard work!
And that's assuming you're putting in extra effort.
Yet, you went to a beauty salon and got a ten-thousand-yuan membership card.
Has delivering food gone to your head?
Even Luo Meimei was quite shocked, even though she knew Shen Qiushan had over six hundred thousand in his bank account.
But it was clear that money was painstakingly saved, so Luo Meimei didn't expect him to get such an expensive membership card. She just hoped her efforts wouldn't be in vain with a card opened.
Yet this "in-law" was very supportive!
Right off the bat, he wanted a ten-thousand-yuan membership card.
"Xiaoxue, hurry and get Brother Shen a card!"
Coming back to her senses, Luo Meimei quickly signaled to Zhang Xue.
Opening a membership card was done at the front desk computer, which was Zhang Xue's responsibility.
"Alright!"
Zhang Xue responded, picking up the tea tray from the floor and heading back to the front desk.
"Younger Brother Shen, you're really generous. A ten-thousand-yuan membership card is truly the best choice!"
"Rest assured, this money will be well spent. You'll be guaranteed to lighten by a shade in no time!"
Luo Meimei said, delighted, as she pulled Shen Qiushan over to the front desk to open a card.
Though making money is hard, spending it is easy.
To open a membership card, you just need to provide a name, birthday, and phone number.
Then you simply pay.
While Shen Qiushan was swiping his card, Zhang Xue wondered whether this delivery uncle's bank card had any money, or if this was just a show-off moment!
But the card-swiping process was seamless.
The scenario she imagined didn't happen.
Luo Meimei was all smiles: "Younger Brother Shen, the ten-thousand membership card includes a complimentary full-body whitening spa, which normally costs 998. Why don't you have the complimentary session today?"
"Sure!"
"I'll go with Sister Meimei's arrangement."
Shen Qiushan nodded indifferently.
He thought to himself, after working hard for half my life, it's time for some enjoyment.
"Younger Brother Shen, come with me upstairs."
Luo Meimei pointed towards the stairs and led Shen Qiushan up to the second floor.
As soon as they left, Lin Yue, who had been watching from the tearoom, and a younger beautician quickly huddled at the front desk.
"What's the situation?"
"Got a card??"
Lin Yue asked impatiently.
"Yes, a ten-thousand-yuan membership card."
Zhang Xue nodded, still finding it somewhat unbelievable.
"What?"
"A ten-thousand-yuan card!"
Lin Yue was stunned. She had seen Shen Qiushan's card-swiping process from the tearoom but didn't know how much the card was worth.
She and her colleague Qiao Qiao had speculated it would be a two-thousand-yuan card, most likely with Luo Meimei shamelessly dragging it in to boost her performance, maybe with some shady dealings involved!
But in fact, he got a ten-thousand-yuan card!
"Delivery jobs are so lucrative now?!"
"Just like that, a ten-thousand-yuan membership card is opened?"
The other onlooker, Qiao Qiao, was also full of astonishment. She even felt like she was missing out on millions because she frequently interacts with delivery workers. Had she known they were so easily persuaded, she would have maintained better relations with them.
"That's what I'm saying!"
"From now on, make good relations with the delivery guys, and maybe you'll get a ten-thousand-yuan membership card!"
Lin Yue joked half-seriously.
Just then, a delivery worker came in holding a cup of milk tea: "Milktea for the Little Rich Lady."
"Mine, mine!"
Zhang Xue waved at the delivery worker, taking the milk tea.
After making the delivery, the worker turned and left.
However, he had barely taken two steps when someone called out to him: "Hey, wait a moment."
"Yes?"
The delivery worker turned back puzzled.
Lin Yue smiled at him and asked, "Want to get a membership card?"
"What?"
The delivery worker looked baffled.
"The beauty salon's membership card!"
"You see, being out in the elements... you really need some whitening..." Lin Yue said with a grin.
The delivery worker, realizing this, just looked speechless. So, this woman wanted to sell him a beauty salon membership card!
Turns out business is tough these days; even someone like him isn't spared.
"Can't afford it!"
The delivery worker bluntly replied with three words and walked out of the salon in long strides.
"Seems it's not quite working either~"
Once the delivery worker left, Lin Yue gently pouted.
"It's obvious that delivery guy knows Sister Meimei. Maybe they really have some sort of arrangement privately..."
Qiao Qiao whispered.
"Absolutely, there must be some inside story!"
Zhang Xue nodded along.
"For Sister Meimei to get a delivery guy to open a ten-thousand-yuan membership card, that's impressive!" Lin Yue remarked.
Upstairs.
In the beauty room.
When Shen Qiushan lay on the beauty bed, Luo Meimei realized that giving him a full-body whitening spa might not be suitable.
Because the full-body spa required taking off clothes, leaving only underwear.
In fact, if female customers didn't mind, it's best to take everything off, since many women are very particular about whitening and caring for their buttocks.
So, when Shen Qiushan lay on the beauty bed, Luo Meimei felt a bit awkward.
But now that the membership card was done and he was already lying on the bed, she couldn't very well back out. So, she had no choice but to say, "Younger Brother Shen, the full-body spa requires you to undress. If you mind, we could choose another treatment?"
"I don't mind."
Shen Qiushan waved nonchalantly; as a man, what was there to be afraid of?
"Even the pants?"
Shen Qiushan quickly stripped off his top.
Thanks to maintaining a consistently high-intensity job, his figure was excellent, with no signs of middle-aged spread.
His broad shoulder blades resembled unfurling wings, with raised deltoids, biceps, and triceps bulging, and his abs arranged neatly like carefully sculpted chocolate blocks.
Having felt the hardness of his muscles while on the electric bike, Luo Meimei now seeing it in person felt her heart race, something women her age couldn't handle, causing her virtuous thoughts to waver.
"Off with them!"
"Leave on the briefs only!"
After steadying herself a little, Luo Meimei firmly instructed.
"Alright!"
Shen Qiushan responded and took off his jeans.
Thus, he was left in just a pair of boxers.
"Sister Meimei, no need to take these off, right?"
Shen Qiushan jokingly remarked.
"Uh, no need..."
Luo Meimei shook her head against her true intention, muttering inwardly: Wonder if that bulge is even useful!
