Chapter 50 - 50 At First Glance, All Little Baldies_l
“So that’s how it is!” Bai Susu nodded.
No wonder she had never seen it being charged or having the batteries
replaced.
Truly amazing.
However, Ye Fan’s friends really were remarkable.
Bai Susu thought that this round, chubby thing could probably last for about
half a year to a year.
Thinking of this, she felt very happy.
“Alright, let’s eat, the food is getting cold,” Ye Fan said.
After finishing the meal and cleaning up, Ye Fan called the barber.
He asked him to bring the tools he lived upon, and after explaining the situation and address and such, he made an appointment.
Having scheduled everything, Ye Fan and Bai Susu kept the children company while watching the daring belly of Roundy-of course, because Roundy had a nine-inch screen on its stomach, which would automatically play whatever TV show you told Roundy to show.
Ye Fan pulled Bai Susu to watch a suspenseful tomb-raiding movie with him,
both engrossed and fascinated!
Bai Susu watched with a tense expression, clutching Ye Fan’s arm tightly
without moving her gaze from the screen.
Nervous and somewhat scared, but she couldn’t help but watch.
There was no helping it; she was hooked just like that.
Meanwhile, Roundy was amusing the four little ones in the bedroom, creating an atmosphere of domestic bliss which was hard to watch without feeling
envious.
Soon, the doorbell rang.
At the same time, Ye Fan’s phone also started to ring.
Ye Fan came back to his senses, pulled out his phone and saw that it was the barber’s number; he immediately got up and went to the door to open it.
He saw a barber in a white shirt and casual pants, with a slightly large stature, probably around thirty years old, who seemed quite amiable.
“Lu, the barber, please come in!” Ye Fan said with a smile.
Whenever he’d gone for a haircut in the past, it was always this barber Lu who had done a pretty good job.
“Ye Fan, we’re old acquaintances, no need for formalities. I didn’t expect you to have kids already, I’m so envious. I’ve just gotten married myself, don’t have kids yet, and here you are, a step ahead of me, haha,” Lu Zheng said with a
laugh.
“Brother Lu, stop teasing me, have some water,” Ye Fan said as he poured a cup
of water for Lu Zheng.
“You lad, where’s your sister-in-law and the nieces?” Lu Zheng asked with a smile.
“Wait a moment, I’ll bring the kids out,” Ye Fan replied before returning to the bedroom, placed the four little ones into a stroller, and then pushed them out.
Bai Susu followed behind, nodding politely upon seeing Lu Zheng, without speaking.
She didn’t know Lu Zheng, so there was nothing much she could say.
A polite nod was her way of greeting.
“So this is sister-in-law, you’re a lucky guy, Ye Fan, and four daughters at that, quite the fortune you have here!” Lu Zheng commented laughingly.
He hadn’t expected Ye Fan to be so fortunate.
Quadruplet daughters and such a beautiful wife, it really seemed like he was at the peak of his life.
“Lu Zheng, indeed I’m lucky. Please give the children a haircut,” Ye Fan steered away from further comment, as getting the babies’ hair cut was the priority.
“Alright, since the kids are so small, you hold them, and I’ll just use the clippers carefully,” Lu Zheng nodded.
The children were still very small; he had to be extremely cautious. Moreover, children are often afraid, and the sound of the clippers might make them move and not stay still, so he needed to pay close attention to this aspect.
“That’s fine, we’ll do as Brother Lu says,” Ye Fan nodded.
He agreed with Lu Zheng’s suggestion, after all, he had considered many issues himself.
Holding them himself would be safer.
“Well, let’s get started, sister-in-law. You go get a basin of hot water and a hot towel. Dampen the kids’ hair first, so it’ll be easier to trim.” Lu Zheng said.
Bai Susu immediately went to do as told.
She quickly returned with a basin of hot water and a towel. When the temperature was right, she pressed it onto the kids’ heads, softening their hair. Only then did Ye Fan pick up his eldest, Ye Bing, and seat him in the chair.
Lu Zheng carefully held the clippers and started trimming the child’s hair. Bai Susu watched nervously from the side, her brows slightly furrowed and beads of sweat slowly forming on the tip of her nose.
There was no helping it; the children were too young, and she was terribly worried, feeling very tense inside.
It didn’t take long for Ye Bing to be buzzed into baldness, and Ye Fan let out a sigh of relief, placing the elder Ye Bing into the stroller.
Fortunately, the children were all very quiet and didn’t fuss, staying still obediently without wriggling around.
[Ding dong, congratulations to the host for completing a hidden task, trimming the babies’ hair, reward +3 to physical strength]
[Reward physical strength +3]
[Reward, a bottle of ‘scar and stretch mark cream’ for mommies that disappear with one swipe, warm reminder, it can remove stretch marks.]
[Reward, host martial strength +10]
[Ding dong, congratulations to the host for being upgraded from a beginner daddy to an intermediate daddy. Please continue to work hard. The System will be undergoing an upgrade, and in the coming days, no tasks will be triggered, and no rewards will be given. All will continue after the System upgrade is complete.]
Ye Fan listened to the announcements, feeling quite happy.
When he heard the System was going to upgrade, he became even happier. However, upon hearing the latter part, his joy faded instantaneously. The message meant that for a certain period in the future, the System would be upgrading and thus wouldn’t accompany him.
What about his bodyguards, the heroes from the Three Kingdoms, could he still summon them?
He needed them; if they couldn’t come out anymore, wouldn’t he be screwed?
This simply wouldn’t do.
[Host, please do not worry. System-issued rewards can be accessed at any time. During the update period, it’s just that tasks cannot be recognized and rewarded. There will be no other effects, so please feel free to use them.]
Relieved by this message, Ye Fan let out a sigh of relief.
The trimming of the babies’ hair was also all taken care of.
Lu Zheng didn’t mention payment and, carrying his toolbox, left the scene.
Ye Fan looked at his four little princesses, all turned into baldies, and felt a bit unaccustomed to it. He also felt an inexplicable sense of amusement.
He really wanted to laugh!
“Ye Fan, seeing them all bald like this, I’m not used to it either.” Bai Susu said, barely holding back a smile on her face.
Isn’t that so?
Really, it’s just so funny to look at.
Ye Fan immediately took out his smartphone to take a few pictures of the little ones, sending them to his mom.
Afterward, he took out the bottle of scar cream from his pocket and placed it in Bai Susu’s hand.
Bai Susu blushed the moment she saw it; it was stretch mark removal cream. She had been thinking of buying some in a few days, but Ye Fan had already got it for her.
He really was so thoughtful.
Her heart felt all warm inside.
“Okay, I’ll just transfer the money to Lu Zheng later,” Ye Fan said to Bai Susu. After settling the children inside the house, he took out his phone and transferred six hundred yuan to Lu Zheng via WeChat.
Ye Fan didn’t dwell on it any longer. Looking at his own body, there weren t many changes, but he just felt like he had endless strength, some skills in hand, and he could protect himself.
Not bad, not bad at all..
