Qiao Jin woke up to find herself reborn. In her previous life, as an orphan, she was adopted by her deceased father's comrade-in-arms. She had a bright future ahead but, due to jealousy towards...
Chapter 13: I just want to get to know you
"Deal. I will come back to you with the real thing within three days."
Although the other party was obviously skeptical and thought she might just be talking big.
When Qiao Jin stepped out of the herbal medicine shop, she finally thought of Fu Yanlin's matter again.
She saw Uncle Fu forcing him to go on a blind date, and she could tell that he had no interest in it at all...
If I could help out...
Maybe she could really get Fu Yanlin to write a letter of recommendation for her.
Qiao Jin didn't think any more and turned into a clothing store.
She had to admit that her clothes were a bit shabby.
I have a small frame and although I am slim, I am also well-rounded. However, wearing Qiao Xue's clothes is like a child wearing adult clothes, which doesn't fit me at all.
She thought about changing her clothes before going to see Fu Yanlin.
When I entered the store, I found that the clothes were on sale today.
But when she saw the long skirt on the hanger, she was still shocked by the price!
Two hundred dollars for a skirt?
This is the discounted price!
It’s 12% off!
Her monthly living expenses are less than 80 yuan, but the skirts here cost 200 yuan?
Qiao Jin suddenly retreated a little.
Dad’s pension was hard-earned, only eight hundred yuan in total. How could he spend a quarter of it just to buy a nice piece of clothing?
Although he had promised the boss to pick red ganoderma and sell it for money, his memory of the red ganoderma on Nianci Mountain was only some vague impressions from his previous life.
She had never actually been there, so she couldn't guarantee that it would be successful this time.
Qiao Jin lowered her head and looked at her shirt. It really didn't look good. Fortunately...
At least the face is okay.
Just as I was about to turn around and leave, I didn't notice someone walking towards me.
Unexpectedly, I bumped into him directly and my nose hit the man's chest hard.
She covered her nose in pain and took a step back.
"Excuse me, Miss. Are you okay?"
Qiao Jin shook her head and looked up at the man.
He was wearing all branded clothes and had neatly trimmed hair. At first glance, he looked like a star in a TV series, dressed very fashionably and had a faint fragrance on his body.
Qiao Jin wrinkled her nose. In comparison, she seemed tasteless and even looked a little unpresentable.
"fine."
She said.
The man took a look at Qiao Jin and secretly thought that the girl was very pretty, but judging from her clothes, she probably didn't come from a well-off family.
Fu Mingchen became interested and used his usual routine to test her: "Miss, are you here shopping by yourself?"
"No, just looking around."
Qiao Jin wanted to end this conversation quickly as she had to go find Fu Yanlin.
"How about this, I bumped into you by accident just now. To express my apology, I will give you a skirt. What do you think of this one?"
As he spoke, Fu Mingchen picked up the skirt that Qiao Jin had just taken a fancy to.
Qiao Jin narrowed her eyes slightly. Who would give someone a skirt worth 200 yuan just to apologize?
Seeing Qiao Jin's surprised expression, Fu Mingchen felt that there was no challenge.
Can a skirt worth 200 yuan make this girl fall in love?
My interest suddenly decreased a lot.
But considering Qiao Jin's pretty face, Fu Mingchen decided to tease her a little.
"No, I have something else to do, so I'll leave now."
Qiao Jin answered softly and turned to leave.
Fu Mingchen was slightly stunned, wondering if this was a tactic of playing hard to get?
He quickly reached out and grabbed Qiao Jin's arm, pulling her back to him.
The sudden movement almost made Qiao Jin spin around on the spot.
"Please let me go. I really have something to do. If you keep holding on to me like this, I'm going to report you to the police for harassment."
Qiao Jin said with a frown.
Fu Mingchen looked at her in surprise and said, "You just want to call the police so casually? Do you know who I am?"
"Then let go."
"It's really interesting, little girl. In fact, I want to get to know you better. Let's consider this skirt as our friendship. Come on, take it!"
"I said I don't want it!"
"Well, you'd better change that shirt right away. If you go out wearing this, people will think you're a beggar, and who knows who will throw a few coins into your hand. What's more, the quality is too poor, it will break if you just pull it..."
Before he could finish his words, Fu Mingchen really pulled Qiao Jin's clothes hard, causing a tear to appear around her waist, exposing her snow-white skin.
After taking a deep breath, a look of anger flashed in Qiao Jin's eyes.
At this time, Fu Mingchen had already bought the dress mentioned above, and there was a hint of smile on her face, "Try this dress on, it will definitely look good. By the way, how about giving me your contact information?"
He took out a Motorola cell phone and wanted to exchange messages with Qiao Jin.
But Qiao Jin's eyes were a little evasive. Not only had she never used such a high-end phone, but she had never seen the one on display before.
"I don't have a cell phone. Since you tore my clothes, I'll take this skirt!"
Having said that, Qiao Jin took the clothes and turned around and ran out!
Looking at Qiao Jin's rapidly receding back, Fu Mingchen, who had been standing there without moving, expressed his plan: "Even if you run away now, I will find your whereabouts in the capital."
After paying the bill, he slowly left the clothing store.
On the other side, Qiao Jin found a public toilet to change her torn clothes into the new skirt she had just gotten.
This dress outfit consists of a white shirt and a fiery red slim skirt, which perfectly shows off Qiao Jin's good figure.
Standing in front of the mirror, I tidy up my hair to make myself look more fresh and charming.
After changing her clothes, she returned to the street again. Facing the bustling crowd in front of her, an inexplicable confusion surged in her heart - why didn't she have any information about Fu Yanlin's blind date in her previous life?
It is not easy to find each other in a short time.
I had no choice but to ask which coffee shop was more famous here. After learning that there was a place called Mu Sen, I took a taxi there without saying a word.
It took only ten minutes to reach the destination. The unique German-style design in front of us, coupled with the sycamore tree at the door and the retro brick wall, was particularly eye-catching.
As soon as you enter the store, a waiter will come to you and guide you to sit down and hand you the menu.
But these days, drinking coffee is still a relatively luxurious thing. There are only a few such shops in Kyoto, and most of them are run by foreigners.
After a quick glance at the price list, I found that a cup of ordinary drink actually cost 30 yuan!
This made the girl who grew up in the countryside gasp - life is really hard for city dwellers!
"Don't bother, just give me a glass of pure water."
In the entire list, only the price of purified water is acceptable, which is only three yuan.
You know, this little money is enough to buy a big bag of sweet potatoes in my hometown!
The waiter couldn't help but curl his lips when he saw this, and before leaving his seat he muttered: "I can't even afford the cheapest cup of coffee..."
