Zhang Zian looked at the time and reminded Lu Yiyun again it was about time to rinse off the bubbles. Once the water in the sink cooled down, it would be too cold for the cat.
Lu Yiyun followed his instructions to unplug the stopper in the sink. The water along with some dirt rapidly went down the drain. She then turned on the shower and rinsed off the bubbles on Jasmine using a sponge.
She started to sweat, wiped her forehead using the back of her hand, and didn’t even notice that some bubbles got in her hair. After confirming Jasmine was all clean, she turned off the shower, pulled a towel from the rack, and wrapped Jasmine up. Jasmine’s whole body was wrapped in the towel, with only her little face sticking out. She looked just like a cute chicken wrap that everybody loved…
The towel dried off most of the moisture from Jasmine. It was time for the dryer.
This is another obstacle in cat bathing. Most cats are scared of the huge noise from the dryer.
As a girl, although being a female Otaku, Lu Yiyun was great with dryers. Zhang Zian specially reminded her not to put on high heat, otherwise it would burn the cat’s hair…
In most circumstances, this step required cooperation between two people. One person would be holding a comb with one hand and the dryer in the other. Another person would grab the cat so it wouldn’t move around. If there was only one person, she could only dry the hair without combing. In that case, the outcome would be a lot less pretty, and the hair would be less fluffy. However, in Zhang Zian’s store, it only took one person for this task, because cats would not move around, instead standing still like a model and letting the owner dry their hair.
Tools were also available in all varieties. As drying began, one needed a wide-tooth comb to lift up the hair to make sure the skin was dried. Afterwards, it required a fine-tooth comb to smooth out the hair throughout the whole body.
When Lu Yiyun put down the dryer and comb, Jasmine looked completely different! When she held Jasmine up, her hair was as soft and smooth as cotton. Her hair smelled beautifully, like the fresh body soap.
The whole shower was completed within 40 minutes. If she was familiar with the process, it would’ve been even quicker.
”Thank you, Mr. Manager!” Lu Yiyun had Jasmine in her arms, very satisfied with the result.
”Customer satisfaction is the best gift to me,” Zhang Zian smiled. ”If you have any comments or suggestions, please feel free to let me know.” He was surprised that his first customer in the bathing business went so well.
Aunt Liu kept winking at Lu Yiyun, trying to have her tell Zhang Zian that the pricing was ridiculous and she would never come back.
Lu Yiyun shook her head, ”I am very happy with the service here. No comments.”
”That’s great. See you next time.”
She took a second and said, ”I would like the same cat bag as Snowy’s.”
Snowy? Zhang Zian searched in his memory and realized she was talking about the camgirl Snowy.
”Oh, are you a fan of hers?” he asked.
She timidly dropped her head: ”Not really a fan… I just watch her live show every time…”
Zhang Zian didn’t understand the logic behind her words. How come she didn’t consider herself Snowy’s fan, but she watched her live show all the time? However, he was glad that the advertisement worked. Deeply buried gold cannot shine.
He brought out the same cat bag as Snowy’s. Lu Yiyun paid, put Jasmine in the cat bag, nodded, and said, ”Thank you, Mr. Manager. I will come back.”
At this moment, he thought of the girl in the jewelry store and started to understand her feeling. It feels good to have returning customers!
Of course, feeling good is great. However, he was too lazy to show Lu Yiyun out in the same way Su Min had done in the jewelry store.
After watching Lu Yiyun leave, he turned around and spoke to Aunt Liu, ”Aunt Liu, it is almost noon. Why don’t you go home and make lunch?”
