Cen Muzi is a warm-hearted person. Although he is very busy as graduation is approaching, when he heard that Qin Shi’s roommates wanted to dye their hair, he readily agreed to meet them.

Xin Zhiping took Jiang Baige to meet Cen Muzi.

"Wow, you have such cool red hair!"

As soon as Xin Zhiping saw Cen Muzi, she held her face and screamed excitedly, just like a fangirl.

Cen Muzi was a little embarrassed by her excitement. Qin Shi rolled her eyes and said, "Don't scare Muzi... I have classes later. You three can chat among yourselves."

After that, Qin Shi left. Jiang Baige and the others found an outdoor booth in the coffee shop and ordered sparkling water and coffee.

Xin Zhiping's eyes were glued to Cen Muzi's hair, unable to move away: "How long have you been dyeing your hair? How come it still looks like it was just dyed?"

"I dyed it around the beginning of the month... I didn't know what color would be more noticeable, so the first color I mixed was a little lighter. I went to touch up the color a few days ago, so it looks like new. If I had known you guys wanted to dye your hair, I would have gone with you."

Cen Muzi touched his hair and said, "You know, dyeing your hair takes a whole day at the barber shop. It's really boring."

"Did you do this at school?" Jiang Baige asked.

"Yes, it's the 'Tsukishima' on the way to the teaching building. And because hair dyeing and perming are quite expensive, you can get a 50% discount if you top up. I even applied for a card."

As he spoke, Cen Muzi took the card out of his pocket and said, "I was afraid that you would go today, so I brought it with me... Anyway, we are about to graduate, so if I don't use up all the money in it, I will have to sell it second-hand."

Jiang Baige glanced at Xin Zhiping and asked, "What do you think?"

"I'm a little conflicted..." Xin Zhiping rubbed her hands. "Originally, I wanted to keep it short and thin, and dye it green, which would be very summery and elegant. But seeing Muzi's big wavy red, I like it too... How about I dye it red too?"

"Sure, I think dyeing short hair red will make it less noticeable."

Cen Muzi’s main role is encouragement. No matter what they say, she thinks it’s good.

"Red is always eye-catching no matter how you dye it... And in the summer, red does look a bit hot visually."

"Yeah, I think so too!"

Xin Zhiping nodded frantically, and then took out the pictures of different hair colors that she had saved in her mobile phone over the past two days and began to talk.

This is very new to Jiang Baige.

Because she is the type of person who thinks dressing up is a very troublesome thing. At most, she would chat with her friends about the latest promotions and how to get discounts by placing orders. She rarely talks about beauty and hairdressing alone.

Not to mention making an appointment alone to discuss hair color, hair length, and whether to perm or dye it.

She couldn't say that she particularly hated it, but she did feel that it was a waste of time.

Fortunately, at this time, Xin Zhiping suddenly thought of something and started talking about Cen Muzi again from the topic of hair.

"So why did you want to dye your hair red in the first place? I heard from Shishi that you've found a job at the research institute. Is that why you're not allowed to dye your hair?"

Cen Muzi smiled shyly and nodded: "Well, I did dye my hair for the graduation photo. When the new hair grows out, I will probably dye it back to black."

This is the first time Jiang Baige has heard of this statement.

No wonder even Qin Shi found it strange.

But was it really just for the graduation photo shoot? I don’t know why, but Jiang Baige always felt that there was something else going on…

Whether from Qin Shi’s description or the job that Cen Muzi found, she will most likely continue to pursue a doctorate or further studies in the future. This graduation ceremony may not be her last one, but it seems that Cen Muzi attaches great importance to this graduation.

Moreover, according to Qin Shi, Cen Muzi was originally supposed to give a speech as a representative of outstanding graduates at their department's graduation ceremony.

But because she dyed her hair like this, the department leaders were worried that some parents would be dissatisfied - after all, many parents would come to attend the graduation ceremony. In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, they eventually replaced her with other students.

Because of this incident, Qin Shi complained to Jiang Baige: It is ridiculous that Anjing University, which claims to be on par with world-class universities, would deny a good student with excellent character and academic performance because of hair dyeing!

Jiang Baige also found it ridiculous.

It is even more outrageous than being disqualified from speaking because of dyeing hair, being subjected to obscene rumors, being cyberbullied, and being forced to commit suicide.

But such a ridiculous and outrageous thing happened, and they could not change anything.

However, compared with Qin Shi's indignation, Cen Muzi did not care so much, nor did he dye his hair black again just to get the opportunity to speak on stage.

Qin Shi only said that Mu Zi said at that time, "It's a pity that person can't see me speaking on the stage, what a pity."

But Qin Shi didn't ask who "that person" was, and Cen Muzi didn't say either.

Jiang Baige's intuition told her that this person was very important. But since she had only met Cen Muzi for the second time, it was not easy for her to ask directly.

"However, if you are undecided, you can go to the store first. There are wigs of various colors in the store. You can try them on your head first."

Does the barber shop have wigs?

This information made Jiang Baige's eyes light up: Could she rent a wig from a barber shop, or cooperate with the store?

But how to negotiate cooperation? She is just an ordinary graduate student, without any social or institutional background. It may not be easy to negotiate.

Xin Zhiping was very happy after hearing Cen Muzi's suggestion: "This is a good idea. Bai Ge, what do you think?"

"Me?" Jiang Baige looked at Cen Muzi, "I'll just dye my hair the same as Muzi's."

"Huh?" Cen Muzi was a little surprised, "You want to dye your hair red too?"

However, she nodded soon: "That's right, just like Qin Shi said, you have fair skin and red hair doesn't look out of place. Do you want to perm your hair?"

"hot!"

It would be best if he looked exactly like Cen Muzi, so that it would be hard to tell the real one from the fake one.

"Your hair is about the same length..." Xin Zhiping looked at Jiang Baige and Cen Muzi, "Will I be unable to tell which is which after you dye your hair?"

"How could that be? Muzi is half a head taller than me."

Although Jiang Baige said this, what she was thinking in her heart was: It’s best if you can’t tell the difference!

Cen Muzi glanced at his watch, and time passed unknowingly: "I have an appointment with classmates to talk about something later, so I should go... How about waiting for you to confirm the time and let me know, then I will spare a day to accompany you, how about that?"

"Okay."

Jiang Baige was overjoyed and quickly took out her cell phone and exchanged contact information with Cen Muzi.

The crucial first step was finally achieved, and Jiang Baige breathed a sigh of relief.

But what to do next? Her mind was full of thoughts and ideas, but they were only details and no plan at all.

She decided not to think too much about it for now and just get familiar with Cen Muzi.
