I S U F D (Lisa X Mingyu)

Mutual Harm - Do you know the harm manicures do to the human body?

Returning home, Mingyu studied the business card. Written on it was the salon's phone number as well as its QR code. He thought for a moment before calling the phone number.

"Hello, Only Love Nail Salon, may I ask if I can help you with something?"

A feminine voice came through the phone, sounding very young. Mingyu concluded that this shouldn't be the Miss Manoban he wanted to find. "Hello, please help me contact Miss Manoban."

"Miss Manoban?" The girl seemed to not react for a moment, stunned, before saying, "Oh, you're looking for the store manager? She is somewhat busy at the moment. May I ask what matter you have with her?"

"You can tell her that the owner of 1808 is looking for her."

"Oh..." The girl yelled in Lisa's direction, "Store manager, there's an owner of 1808 looking for you!"

Lisa: "......"

Fuck, how did this guy get a hold of my salon's number! Is he a detective!?

Lisa took a slow breath and said, "I'm in the middle of painting a customer's nails and cannot get away. Tell him that he can call again in half an hour."

"Okay." After the girl repeated Lisa's words to Kim Mingyu, Mingyu immediately hung up. He gripped the nail salon business card in his hand. This address... didn't seem that far from here.

Twenty minutes later, he stood outside a nail salon with the words 『Only Love 』written above it. The shop's interior decorations and its name were the same as the woman. Mingyu stood outside, staring for a moment, and then pushed open the glass door to walk inside.

Ding-ling-ling-

Hearing the doorbell ring, Lisa automatically raised her head. "Welcome...wel..."

The syllable 'come' didn't even leave her mouth when Lisa looked over, stunned. This man...wasn't he Mr. Kim, that one who didn't particularly like her? He also came here... to get a manicure?

Mingyu also recognized her. He frowned faintly as he walked over to Lisa. "You are the owner of 1908?"

"..." Lisa's thoughts turned direction. She felt that it was slightly inconceivable. This Mr. Kim, he was that guy who lived downstairs? "You are the owner of 1808?"

"Mn."

"...ke." Lisa dry coughed and said to Mingyu, "I know what you want to say, but I am currently unable to leave. You can sit on the sofa for a while and wait for me to finish drawing this customer's nails."

Mingyu subconsciously glanced at the female customer sitting in front of Lisa. Half of her nails were painted with a strawberry design. He didn't know how long it would take to finish.

"Do you know the harm manicures do to the human body?" Mingyu suddenly spoke up. Lisa furrowed her eyebrows, still remaining silent. Mingyu continued to speak. "The phthalates ester in nail polish will increase the risk of women developing breast cancer. The thin layer of cells that protect the nails are stripped and will cause nails to become brittle and grey. If it's serious, it'll even become inflamed and infected. The tools used in manicures may also infect hands and feet with ringworm. Furthermore, the nail UV lamp you use can also age the skin of your hands, increasing wrinkles."
