I Am A Prodigy Chapter 298

"If you want to fight, do it elsewhere, and hurry to the hospital. You might have a chance to be saved," said Ye Lingchen coldly as he frowned at both of them.
Hearing Ye Lingchen's words, they were stunned for a moment, then rushed at full speed to the hospital without any hesitation.
Ye Lingchen watched as they disappeared from sight, the corner of his lips curled up into a smirk.
He had only agitated their blood circulation with the silver needle and aggravated their inner ki flow. However, that was enough to torment them for the next few days.
As both of them left the area, the crowd slowly calmed down. Nonetheless, they did not disperse that quickly, with some still gathered around the area, staring at Ye Lingchen curiously.
Furthermore, regardless of the products being the real reason for the earlier couple's issues, this cosmetic store's reputation is ruined.
"Lingchen, I'm sorry to have mismanaged the store," Zhang Yunxi muttered in a guilty tone, her face a guilt-ridden expression.
"It's okay. Misfortune and fortune come together. The current situation is not that bad. At least we have some publicity." Ye Lingchen smiled, but with the mask on, nobody could see his expression. He walked forward slowly into the crowd.
"I'm this cosmetic store's boss, and at the same time, a makeup artist. At first, I didn't plan to do it myself. After all, an average joe is not worth my time."
Gasp!
Ye Lingchen's words stirred the crowd, all of them looking at him as though he was crazy.
"F*ck! What's this boss trying to say? Did he go nuts from the stress?"
"Not worth his time? Who does he think he is?"
"Didn't plan to do it himself? Is he trying to upsell his skills? What a joke!"
Ignoring the discussions around him, Ye Lingchen continued, "From now on, Y Cosmetics' service fees will be increased to three times the previous rate!"

That message stunned everyone, including Zhang Yunxi. She stared at Ye Lingchen in disbelief, thinking that she might have misheard.
"Yunxi, go adjust the price now. Raise it three times!" Before she could speak, Ye Lingchen had already given the order.
"Oh, alright." Zhang Yunxi could only nod.
The prices in the cosmetics store were already high to begin with. Now that it was raised by three times, it would be at the same level as those famous international cosmetic stores. Just what did this little store have that could justify the price hike?
"What a moron!"
Not far from the crowd, two girls were observing the situation. Witnessing Ye Lingchen's insane actions, they could not help but laugh out loudly. "With this hotheaded brat of a boss, this cosmetic store won't last long!"
"I'm guessing that this store planned to leech on the hype of Y's popularity and raise the prices of their products, turning it into an internet sensation store. They even got the mask. Too bad that his attempts are doomed to fail. If he can make it work, I'll eat all the makeup in the world!"
"He's raising the prices despite such a bad rep? It's impossible to have any more customers after this. I'll bet that store will close in under a month!"
"That's right. If they run some events and promotions, it might be salvageable, but now...hehe!"
As expected, seeing Y Cosmetics' high price point, everyone shook their heads as their minds were set to blacklist the store, never planning to visit it again.
Faced with countless sneers, Ye Lingchen's calm voice continued, "From now on, my Y Cosmetics will be picking a lucky customer once a month from all those who shop here. I will personally provide my makeup service for the lucky winner for one session! Of course, the more you spend, the higher the chances to be picked!"

'Lucky draw?'
'A chance to have him personally do the makeup?'
'WTF? You think you're some hot stuff?'
'Who gives a sh*t that you're doing their makeup for them?! Even international makeup artists wouldn't brag like this!'
'You're crazy!'
"Hey boss, have you gone mad thinking about money? Put the lucky draw aside, even if you provide the makeup session for free, I don't want it!" a girl blurted out from the crowd.
"That's right! Who do you think you are? Some big shot or master makeup artist? Or your hands are embedded with diamonds?"
"I didn't expect to run into such an interesting incident on my leisure walk today. What a joke, a joke of the century!"
"This boss is definitely a talented comedian, being able to entertain everyone here. Hahahaha…"
Zhang Yunxi was also looking at Ye Lingchen nervously, whispering to him, "Lingchen, I think we've overdone it. This will scare away the customers."
"That's alright." Ye Lingchen quietly observed the reaction from the crowd, totally unfazed.
As for the two girls hired by Zhang Yunxi, their mouths already turned into an "O" shape while staring at Ye Lingchen, their eyes filled with disbelief.
"Our boss has gone nuts. He's trying to bring the whole store down!"
"The end is coming. It seems we're about to be jobless."
"It was very fortunate for us to have worked under Sister Yunxi as she treats us well, but this store seems like it's going to close down soon."
"This boss is just too nonsensical. Sigh!"
Right then, an aunty holding a bundle of vegetables approached them.
She had a look of sympathy on her face, sighing heavily. "Oh Yunxi, how did your store turn into this mess?"
"Hello, Aunt Zhao," Zhang Yunxi greeted. "You're here for your makeup today?"
That auntie was one of Zhang Yunxi's regular customers. She did not spend much on the store, with only the occasional facial and eyebrow tattoo.
She, along with her partner, would both come over to chat with Zhang Yunxi when they were bored, treating her like their own daughter.
"I came out to buy some vegetables and saw the ruckus over here. That's why I came over to have a look," said Aunt Zhao as she turned to look at the crowd. "Auntie here comes to this shop all the time. The three of them are good ladies. They won't scam you! I can guarantee it!"
"What's the use of your guarantee? Moreover, look at the store's prices. Who else but idiots would come here?!" said someone within the crowd.
Aunt Zhao took a look at the price and immediately gasped. "Yunxi you little girl, what's this? Why is it raised this much?"
After a momentary pause, she advised in all earnest, "This is not how you run a business. Go set the prices back. It's not easy to run a store. How can you be so reckless?"
Right then, Ye Lingchen walked up to her with a smile. "Auntie, you've been using our service previously right? Would you be willing to be last month's lucky customer? I can provide you a makeup session for free."
"Free?" Hearing the word 'free', Aunt Zhao's eyes lit up and looked at Zhang Yunxi.
"Aunt Zhao, he's the boss of the store, a very kind person," introduced Zhang Yunxi. "This is our store's latest event."

Souls of Savagery
Souls of Savagery is a series of short stories intended to function much like a comic book series. However, to experience the complete story in a logical order you should read the volumes in numerical order, starting of course, with Volume 1: A Bloodbath by Any Other Name. Each volume is told from a single point of view and that will change from volume to volume. Though, the narrative will require later volumes to return to characters that have been featured previously. I hope you enjoy.
