Chapter 79: Resorting to Money at the Slightest Disagreement?

Even Chen Cang was utterly bewildered by Xiao Tianhua’s words!
“Big sister, I’m just doing my job. Don’t get so into character. I sell talent, you pay… Let’s part on good terms; with you like this… I don’t know how to ask you for money!”
Chen Cang felt somewhat helpless.
“Everything was fine, but you had to bring feelings into it… Talking about feelings can be so costly!”
Thinking this, Chen Cang felt that he had been too polite and needed to set things straight.
He hastily gestured with his hands and said with a serious and earnest expression, “No, no, no, Sister Xiao, you’ve misunderstood. I’m a professional; this is my job. That’s all there is to it. Don’t get too excited. Actually, you were already beautiful. I merely highlighted your best features.”
However, Chen Cang did not expect that his words would make Xiao Tianhua even more emotional…
She muttered to herself, “No one has ever said I’m not pretty. They all call me a nouveau riche, saying I can’t change my coarse nature with money. You’re the first to speak of me this way…”
[Ding! Xiao Tianhua’s favorability +20!]
Upon seeing this, Chen Cang was suddenly at a loss… What the heck did I do!?
I really don’t know why… Why do people in their forties like me so much?
Where are the young girls at?
My Mom must have given me the wrong BUFF!
After seeing the drawings, Zhang Zhixin also came up with a series of solutions and methods for this matter.
Definitely shouldn’t blame or fall out with Wang Chen.
Causing trouble with Wang Chen over three hundred thousand is certainly not a wise choice.
But likewise, Xiao Tianhua must not be offended either!
Zhang Zhixin had already thought of the worst-case solution, which was simply to transfer the three hundred thousand from the hospital account and return it untouched to Xiao Tianhua.
Of course, he also considered the best strategy, but such strategies, being the best, are naturally hard to achieve.
That would be for Xiao Tianhua to undergo plastic surgery again until she’s satisfied!
Doing so would not only avoid offending either party but could also build a rapport with Xiao Tianhua and perhaps bring in a lot of wealthy ladies.
After all…
The friends of a wealthy lady are wealthy ladies.
And in the plastic surgery industry, the most populous group is those between 22-35 years old, making up over sixty percent.
But…
The group with the highest spending power is those rich ladies in their forties whose beauty is fading and who are on the decline!
This group, in their pursuit of beauty, is quite generous with money, and they once propped up half of Hong Kong’s beauty industry.
Even Japan’s cosmeceutical industry relies not on the young but on the middle- aged with purchasing power.
Therefore, if Xiao Tianhua’s surgery is successful, it would truly be all gain and no harm!
It could catapult the business of Zhixin Plastic Surgery Hospital to a whole new level.
Although Zhixin Plastic Surgery Hospital is relatively new to the industry and has seen rapid development, its market share is not very high.
It’s only considered second tier in Anyang City!
The first tier consists of chain plastic surgery hospitals and some local ones, like Annie Plastic Surgery and Xiya Plastic Surgery, etc.
Chen Cang’s drawings gave Zhang Zhixin hope for the future.
And this hope was not just about performing surgery for Xiao Tianhua but also the prospect of roaring through the plastic surgery industry in Anyang City. With this in mind, Zhang Zhixin looked at Chen Cang with burning eyes!
It seems that bringing him here was indeed the right decision!
Truly a wise choice.
“Let’s finalize this matter first,” Zhang Zhixin planned to call the other shareholders to talk with Chen Cang and offer him a good contract or an even better cooperation scheme afterwards.
But first, the task at hand should be done well!
Zhang Zhixin looked at Xiao Tianhua and smiled, “Ms. Xiao, have you made your choice?”
Xiao Tianhua had been staring blankly at the five pictures for quite a while!
She truly didn’t know how to make a choice!
This choice was different from the others, as you’re choosing your own appearance, and there can only be one!
It was too hard to choose!
She looked up at Chen Cang, “Dr. Chen, could you… help me pick one?”
Chen Cang was startled!
Here we go again?
[Ding, high-level NPC has issued a task: help her choose a photo. Task completion reward: 1. Ten thousand yuan; 2. +5 affinity.]
Chen Cang: ¥¥¥¥¥¥
Handing out money without a word?
Well, that’s fine!
Chen Cang took the five drawings and pondered over them. After a few minutes, he pulled out one, looked at Xiao Tianhua, and said, “I think this one is better!” “Ms. Xiao, look at this portrait, the eyebrows and eyes are graceful, and lifting the muscles can make the eyes more fitting. Most importantly, the overall look exudes a dignified and elegant demeanor. Plus, your eyebrows are strong and forceful, which could, if the eyes are too stern, create an unapproachable look. However, this set of eyes softens the fierceness between the brows…”
“Moreover, since your portrait is to be used as a trademark, it naturally should be festive and down-to-earth. So, after comprehensive consideration, I still think this one is more suitable!”
After Chen Cang finished speaking and before he even had the chance to catch his breath, Xiao Tianhua made her decision on the spot!
“Alright! Let’s go with Dr. Chen’s choice, this one!”
With Xiao Tianhua’s decisive choice, Chen Cang joyfully received ten thousand yuan and a 5-point increase in affinity.
It seemed like he was about to make a nice sum of money again.
Working for the wealthy was truly… lucrative if done well, but if not… you end up like Zhang Zhixin, embroiled in too much trouble (or, literally, shit)!
After the decision was made, the next task was for Zhang Zhixin to take Xiao Tianhua through some equipment, record some facial data, and perform a thorough comparison.
The two busied themselves the entire afternoon. Without performing a single surgery, they finally developed a systematic plan.
That is, a professional plastic surgery plan!
Chen Cang’s drawings were just the general direction.
But the detailed plastic surgery plan required an expert’s thorough study to come up with a more perfect plan.
After a busy afternoon, Xiao Tianhua had also come to forgive or understand Zhang Zhixin.
Before leaving, she looked at Zhang Zhixin, but actually directed her words at Chen Cang, “I was impulsive about today’s incident, and I am truly sorry. I will compensate for any specific losses later.”
“Likewise, for this surgery, I’ll spend as much as I need to. I, Xiao Tianhua, am not someone who likes to take advantage of others.”
Zhang Zhixin smiled, “Ms. Xiao, you’re slapping me in the face. It was our responsibility this time.”
Xiao Tianhua shook her head, “No, that’s not how business is done. Let’s keep different matters separate; last time was also partly my fault, I’m not an unreasonable person.”
With that, Xiao Tianhua took out three stacks of money, still sealed, a total of thirty thousand yuan!
“Dr. Chen, this is your money, it has nothing to do with the plastic surgery hospital. Your plan is worth the money!”
“Also, Dr. Zhang, fair is fair, I’ll give you another chance for the sake of Dr. Chen, but I need a clear answer. Can your hospital do it or not?”
“If you can do it, I won’t argue, I’ll pay what I need to and cooperate as necessary. But if you can’t, then let’s part on good terms without ruining our relationship!”
For a moment, Zhang Zhixin pondered and said, “Ms. Xiao, you should go back and rest for now, and I’ll give you the results by tomorrow, how about that?” Xiao Tianhua nodded and left briskly!
However…
She had just stepped out of the door when she turned back!
She said to Zhang Zhixin, “Give me those papers. Take a photo of them, I want to take them with me.”
Carefully keeping several portraits of herself, she took out her phone and said to Chen Cang, “Dr. Chen, can I get your contact information?”
