I Have Awesome Luck-Chapter 22: 0% Luck

Li Muyao needed a platform and opportunity right now, and Manager Cai was her biggest opportunity today. "If Manager Cai isn't in a hurry, I can do an everyday nude look for you."

Hearing beauty makeup and nude looks, Manager Cai was immediately interested. "Sure, let's see if you can do a unique make-up for me!"

Manager Cai and Li Muyao came out together while chatting happily, astonishing everyone who was waiting for Manager Cai to score the apprentices.

"Manager, the results of the assessment are in. Would you like to score the apprentices now or later?"

Chen Shuping had been eyeing the position of Deputy Manager at the salon for a long time. This was why every time Manager Cai came over, Chen Shuping always showed off her leadership skills and professionalism.

Indeed, Chen Shuping was the one with the most customers in the Beauty Department. 𝗯𝐞𝐝𝗻𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐥.𝐜𝗼𝐦

Besides, her disciple, Wu Lanqi, was very talented as well. Chen Shuping wanted to train Wu Lanqi into the kind of subordinate that was helpful and obedient.

Manager Cai first looked at Li Muyao and then nodded at Chen Shuping. "Okay, give me the assessment results evaluated by the beauticians and customers. I'll announce who's staying and who's leaving."

After hearing what Manager Cai said, everyone around immediately went silent and listened to Manager Cai's announcement one by one. She even gave an all-rounded criticism of the apprentices' flaws and deficiencies in professional beauty knowledge. The beauticians who led the apprentices were also criticized harshly by Manager Cai. The apprentices and beauticians all looked bad and were even a bit guilty and embarrassed.

In the end, she said, "Li Muyao, Wu Lanqi, and Lin Hong will be promoted to beautician trainees from now on. Teachers, please help them more and give them more attention.

"Muyao and Lanqi don't have to be shampoo girls on the first floor anymore and can be beauticians without worrying about anything.

"Alright, the eliminated apprentice, don't be too sad. In fact, it's good to know that you're not suitable for the beauty industry earlier. Then, we don't have to waste each other's time.

"Of course, you can be an apprentice at the Hairdressing Department on the first floor if you want."

"Manager, I understand why Lin Hong can be promoted to a beautician trainee but isn't it too quick for Lanqi and Li Muyao? They've only been here for seven months."

Right, when Chen Shuping evaluated Wu Lanqi, she gave Wu Lanqi a higher score than she deserved. Chen Shuping knew clearly in her heart how good Wu Lanqi actually was. She was not competent enough to be a beautician trainee.

"It's fine. Just let the three of them start today. Give them some of your customers. The beauty industry is like this. They need to communicate more with the customers, do more and practice the techniques more, so they can have more mature experiences.

"Okay, that's all!

"Li Muyao, come and do make-up for me. Let me see how your skills are."

How would Manager Cai not see what Chen Shuping wanted? And yet, in Manager Cai's perspective, it wasn't a big deal for Chen Shuping to have a bit of intention. It would be fine as long as she didn't affect the balance and profit of the salon. They had to have ambitions and desire to make good results in business!

"Yes, Manager."

Li Muyao had already seen the expressions of Chen Shuping, Lin Hong, and Wu Lanqi, while she kept acting like an obedient apprentice. The position of beautician trainee wasn't something Li Muyao wanted and expected, but one step at a time. She also had to achieve the results she wanted step by step.

Li Muyao and Manager Cai didn't go to the VIP beauty room this time but went to Manager Cai's office. It was more like a dressing room rather than an office. There were all sorts of cosmetics on the desk inside.

"Tell me what you use for doing make-up first."

Manager Cai sat in front of the mirror. She didn't let Li Muyao get to it right away and asked her some questions instead.

"We've just finished the skincare procedure. And now, we first use the primer, then the concealer, foundation, loose powder, eyebrow pencil, eyebrow mascara, eyeshadow primer, eyeshadow, eyeliner, eyelash curler, eyelash primer, mascara, shadowing powder, highlighter, blush, lip primer, lipstick." Li Muyao dictated all the steps of doing makeup from the beginning to the end at once, while her eyes observed the cosmetics on the table at the same time.

Li Muyao didn't have all of the cosmetics in the steps she mentioned right now, but she could still do the makeup she wanted.

"Manager Cai smiled. "I've never thought you'd be quite good at theoretical knowledge as well. Alright, let's see how strong your hands-on ability is. If you really do it well and get an outstanding result in the next assessment, I'll let you be the manager of my salon!"

Li Muyao stopped cleaning her hands with wet tissue and cracked a smile. "Thank you for the opportunity. I won't let you down!"

As expected, when Manager Cai let Li Muyao do her makeup, they seemed to be chatting casually, but everything they talked about was more or less related to beauty treatments, body treatments, fashion, and cosmetics brands.

Forty minutes later, Manager Cai appeared in the reception hall of the Beauty Department again with a nude look that made her look five or six years younger than she actually was. Chen Shuping was startled when she saw it and she instantly started flattering Manager Cai. "Manager, doesn't your makeup look too beautiful? You immediately seem even prettier and younger than usual.

"Your skin also looks fair and smooth. You don't seem to have make-up on at all.

"You look really gorgeous. If I were a man, I would definitely go after you right away!"

Everyone loved to hear nice words.

Manager Cai gave a beaming smile after hearing Chen Shuping's compliment. "I know, right? I also feel pretty today. Alright, stop complimenting me.

"Muyao did it for me. She's indeed a bit talented.

"From now on, if customers in the salon want to do make-up, introduce them to Muyao and let her serve them."

Alright, after Manager Cai said that, the small part of the business of the Beauty Department, which was doing makeup for customers, would directly be given to Li Muyao. Doing makeup for customers could earn them a 30% bonus and it only required a short time. If their makeup could satisfy the customers, they might come more often. One makeup cost eighty yuan and they could get a 30% bonus from it. It would not be a problem at all for them to do makeup for five or six customers a day!

"Manager, if we just let Li Muyao be in charge, wouldn't it be too…" Chen Shuping was a bit upset. She and another beautician were originally responsible for doing makeup, but none of them could take these customers now. They were directly taken by Li Muyao. Speaking only of the makeup jobs, the two of them could each get three thousand yuan a month if they split the earnings half-and-half.

And now, Li Muyao would be responsible for it alone. Her salary would immediately be raised from a few hundred yuan to five thousand yuan.

Of course, they earned more bonus if they worked more. Judging from the makeup on Manager Cai's face, Li Muyao's makeup skills were more than a few hundred times better than those of Chen Shuping and the other beautician.

"It's settled."

Manager Cai didn't like it when people disagreed with her. She was about to talk to Chen Shuping about the position of Deputy Manager when Color Hair brought a beauty upstairs and directly called Li Muyao. "Sister Yao, this pretty girl wants you to do beauty treatments for her!"
