951 Perplexed and Smitten 11 (2/2)
On the way back, Jin Qingyan stopped his car outside a tattoo shop. Seeing the situation, she asked naturally, ”You're getting a tattoo?”
”I want to get one done with you.”
”I don't want to.” She knew what was coming, and An Xiaoning did not want to suffer such physical torment.
”It's not very painful.”
”I don't want to.”
Jin Qingyan had thought that she would be very willing to get a tattoo done with him. Unexpectedly, she actually rejected him.
This did not make him drop the idea but strengthened his urge to do so instead. He insisted in a strong tone, ”You can't disagree to it.”
Seeing that he seemed very keen to get a tattoo, An Xiaoning somewhat softened but still said on the surface, ”If I go in with you, will… I get any reward?”
He answered in a resolute tone, ”Of course.”
”What reward?”
”Are a hundred kisses enough?”
”Cliché.”
”Then, what reward do you want?”
An evil thought suddenly popped up in her head. ”I want to dress you up as a woman once.”
”…!!!” Jin Qingyan was first startled, then he asked, ”Just for you to see, right?”
”That goes without saying.”
”Alright,” he agreed readily. What was so difficult about this? In front of her, even if he had to dress up as a demon or a ghost, it didn't matter. Other people would not see it anyway.
Just the thought of it made her delighted, and she got down from the car with him.
The boss of the shop was a mature man. Upon seeing them enter his shop, he recognized them instantly and asked them what tattoo they wanted in an especially friendly manner.
Jin Qingyan seemed to have already decided on the tattoo pattern. When the boss inquired on this, he immediately answered, ”I want a dragon tattoo on my ankle and a phoenix one on hers.”
”Okay.”
Two tattoo masters came forward and helped them both at the same time.
As the tattoo master was disinfecting her skin, An Xiaoning asked, ”Will it hurt?”
The tattoo master answered with a grin, ”I'll be lying if I said it won't, but it's within the tolerance level of most people. The level of pain varies depending on the spot too, but it'll pass very quickly. Don't worry, Ms. An, and don't move around freely. It'll influence the effect.”
An Xiaoning felt her heart tightening. She thought to herself, what kind of obstacles had she not experienced before? What kind of pain had she not gone through? It was just a tattoo, it was not a big deal at all. After all, she was not getting it done alone. There was someone seated next to her, accompanying her.
Having thought it over like this, her anxiety no longer seemed to get to her that badly.
There were some things that do not pose a heavy mental load while they're happening. However, to expect pain from something even before it was to happen, this was a different matter.
After the tattoo master disinfected her skin, he used the machine that poked small holes on her skin while at the same time spurting out drops of ink. This level of pain was still fine for her and did not pose as much of a problem.
However, when the machine started to trace over the pattern, An Xiaoning first took in a breath of cool air. Then, when the stinging pain came from her ankle, her muscles tensed tightly and she clenched her teeth as she side-eyed the man beside her, who kept a straight face.
Suppressing the urge to launch a kick at the tattoo master, An Xiaoning sat through the torturous process and managed to have a phoenix tattoo completed on her ankle.
When it ended, her whole face had turned pale.
How was this not painful? It was simply a living hell!
