Chapter 11 "Is that your girlfriend?"
The transfer procedures went smoothly. Qi Ying originally thought that she would have to make two more trips, but she found that this world was very friendly to her. The teacher even only asked for some supporting documents. Finally, she just needed to meet Xing Xiaochu again and arrange a test before she could be successfully enrolled.
Even Xing Xiaochu didn't expect that her transfer procedures would go so smoothly. She was still a little dazed when she came out of the office.
Qi Ying looked at the dazed child, reached out and rubbed her head, and said, "Why are you dazed?"
Xing Xiaochu looked up at her and said, "Sister, I can go to school now."
Qi Ying laughed, scratched the tip of Xing Xiaochu's nose and said softly, "The teacher said you still have a test to take, and you can't get in if your score is too low. Have you forgotten?"
Xing Xiaochu then remembered what the teacher had just said to her, her face immediately turned red, and she pinched the corner of her clothes and said, "I forgot..."
It’s okay to forget.
Qi Ying knew that the child was happy, having left his scumbag father and now preparing to go to school. This must be a perfect ending for Xing Xiaochu, but for Qi Ying, the game had just begun.
"Let's go to the bookstore first and buy all the books the teacher listed." Qi Ying took Xing Xiaochu's hand and led her forward, saying as they walked: "You still have a week to review, so starting tonight you have to do your homework seriously and can't be idle like before."
Xing Xiaochu held Qi Ying's hand tightly, said "hmm" in a cheerful tone, and followed closely.
There is a bookstore near the school. After Qi Ying spent some money to buy some materials, he also bought a few sets of exercises for Xing Xiaochu. The two of them each carried a bag of things and walked home. When they got home, Qi Ying didn't need to urge them, as the child ran to the study room to study with his books in his arms.
Qi Ying also stayed in the game world to accompany Xing Xiaochu, and only quit the game when it was dark.
Back in the real world, Qi Ying looked at the surveillance video on his mobile phone. Xing Xiaochu had just had dinner with him and was now writing furiously in the study. The high ponytail on the back of her head swung back and forth, and she looked full of youthfulness.
After observing Xing Xiaochu for a while, Qi Ying started to work.
The bride will come over in two days to try on clothes. The wedding date is approaching and Qi Ying is very busy at work. Fortunately, Xing Xiaochu is staying at home obediently and not going anywhere. Qi Ying can take a break from his busy schedule to see what she is doing, which is a relief.
On Saturday, the bride arrived.
The bride was very satisfied with the wedding dress designed by Qi Ying. Her eyes lit up as she touched the rhinestones and tassels on her hands: "Wow, it's so beautiful. I thought it looked beautiful in the video, but I didn't expect it to be even more beautiful in person."
Qi Ying stood beside the bride, smiled, and said to her, "Do you want to give it a try?"
The bride immediately smiled and nodded repeatedly.
Qi Ying and several bridesmaids brought by the bride helped her put on her wedding dress. Standing in front of the mirror, the bride took out her mobile phone to take 360-degree photos without blind spots. Qi Ying squatted beside the hem of her skirt to adjust it for her, occasionally looking up to ask if there was anything that didn't fit, whether it was tight on her chest or her lower back.
The bride was so satisfied that she asked Qi Ying to put a veil on her and put on some light makeup.
There was no problem with wearing a veil, but putting on makeup was a bit difficult for Qi Ying. Fortunately, the bride brought her own makeup artist, who was now carefully putting on makeup for the bride. The beautiful bride sat on the bench with her eyes closed, the sunlight shining on her side face, making her look particularly beautiful.
Qi Ying is very satisfied with her work.
A girl in a white miniskirt next to her couldn't help but glance sideways. Qi Ying felt her gaze and turned to look at her.
The girl in the short skirt did not escape after being discovered. She smiled and said to Qi Ying, "The wedding dress you designed is so beautiful."
Qi Ying smiled politely: "Thank you."
Originally she thought that the conversation between the two ended here, but the girl in the short skirt rubbed towards her and stood next to Qi Ying. Qi Ying even smelled a very sweet scent, which was a very popular perfume scent.
Peach flavor.
The girl in the short skirt had her hands behind her back. Although her eyes were on her friend, she was actually talking to Qi Ying. She said to Qi Ying, "My name is Shi Yu, what's your name?"
Qi Ying said calmly: "Qi Ying."
Shi Yu said "oh" and turned to look at her: "I have a very important dance next month, I want to ask if you have time to help me design a dress, I want to shine at the dance."
It turned out to be a customer!
Qi Ying immediately perked up, looked straight at her, and raised the corners of his mouth to reveal a welcoming smile: "Okay, let's add WeChat, and you can send me the specific requirements."
Shi Yu pursed his lips and smiled, took out his phone and added Qi Ying's WeChat.
After passing the test, Qi Ying asked Shi Yu, "When is the dance next month? Do you have any particular preference for fabrics or styles? There are several sets of ready-made clothes in the store that you can take a look at later. I'll take your measurements when I'm done. As long as it's not a heavy-duty dress, the production period won't be long. It can be made in about half a month. Is there enough time?"
Shi Yu was dizzy from Qi Ying's questions. He only remembered the last question and answered her with a smile: "The dance will be on the 27th of next month. There's still time."
There was still more than a month left, so Qi Ying decided to take the order and happily told Xia Ruoxin that the store had placed the order!
The bride tried on the wedding dress for the whole morning and did not leave until noon. She was very satisfied with the wedding dress made by Qi Ying. She pointed out a few places on the dress that were not comfortable to wear and asked Qi Ying to make some modifications. She decided to try it again in three days and would bring the groom with her to try them together.
In wedding ceremonies, the groom is mostly just a background and a foil, just like the bouquet in the bride's hand, but Qi Ying still designed a decent suit for the groom, which is not exaggerated, suits the bride very well, and most importantly, can be worn on a daily basis.
It's pretty good for the groom.
Qi Ying spent an entire afternoon to complete all the changes, and was very efficient.
When she finished sewing the last stitch, the cell phone rang.
Qi Ying took out her cell phone and took a look, and found that it was a message from Xing Xiaochu.
The spare phone at home is now left to Xing Xiaochu, which has a separate phone number. Qi Ying originally thought that this message would be sent through a game prompt, but he didn't expect that it was actually a text message.
Looking at the numerous notification messages and verification code text messages lying in front of him, Qi Ying couldn't help but wonder, is this game so realistic?
If it is launched in public beta, the operators of the telecom platforms will have to charge more money, right?
When Qi Ying opened the text message, she saw Xing Xiaochu asking her what time she would be home and what she wanted to eat.
She did not reply to the other party immediately, but opened the game interface to see what Xing Xiaochu was doing in the surveillance video. As soon as the surveillance video was opened, Qi Ying saw Xing Xiaochu sitting at the desk holding a spare phone. Under her arm was a test paper and an open textbook. At this moment, she was staring at the phone screen, apparently waiting for Qi Ying's reply.
Although the surveillance camera could see and hear, it was impossible to communicate with Xing Xiaochu, so Qi Ying directly dialed the child's number, intending to listen to the other party's voice.
When Xing Xiaochu saw the phone call coming in, he immediately moved his butt and adjusted his sitting position, then answered the phone properly.
"Wow?" Xing Xiaochu held the phone to her ear and asked her quietly, "Will calling now delay your work?"
Qi Ying saw all of this, her eyes and eyebrows were all smiling. She said to Xing Xiaochu: "Don't delay me. I just finished my work. How are you doing at home today? Did you review well?"
Xing Xiaochu nodded heavily: "I have studied hard."
Qi Ying's low laughter came out from the microphone, making Xing Xiaochu's ears tingle and even her face turned a little red.
She didn't know why recently, but she would blush easily whenever she heard Qi Ying's laughter, and she liked looking at this person more and more. Sometimes, while she was writing the test paper, she would be stunned for a long time when she thought of Qi Ying.
Xing Xiaochu felt like something was wrong with him.
"Sister, sister..." Xing Xiaochu asked her with a blushing face: "What time do you get off work? What do you want to eat in the evening? I can make it for you."
"Well... I guess we'll be off work soon. I'll clean up the store and then go back." Qi Ying said to her, "Use whatever is in the refrigerator. Don't make it too complicated. We can just have a quick meal together."
"Okay." Xing Xiaochu stood up with the help of the table and said to her in a brisk tone, "Then I'll go cook. Sister, come back soon."
After hanging up the phone, Qi Ying couldn't help laughing when he saw Xing Xiaochu getting up and leaving the study.
When she looked up, she found that a customer had come into the store without her noticing.
Shi Yu looked at Qi Ying, who still had a smile on her face. He blinked slightly and pointed to the sofa inside and said, "I forgot to take something. Come and get it."
Qi Ying nodded, and watched Shi Yu run to the sofa inside to pick up the card bag that fell in the gap, then turned back and said to Qi Ying: "When are you going to get off work? I'll treat you to dinner?"
Qi Ying looked at Shi Yu in confusion. She didn't quite understand why this man wanted to treat her to a meal.
But no matter what the reason, she had already promised Xing Xiaochu, so she could only reject her: "I'm already scheduled with someone, sorry."
"A date? Who? The person who called you just now?" Shi Yu asked her curiously, "Is that your girlfriend?"
Qi Ying was stunned for a moment. She didn't know how Shi Yu knew her sexual orientation. She stared at him for a long time before shaking her head and saying, "That's my sister."
Shi Yu's eyes lit up immediately, he scratched his head and said with a smile: "I'm sorry, it seems I misunderstood."
Qi Ying said, "It's okay."
Shi Yu was not in a hurry. After putting the card holder into her bag, she waved to Qi Ying and said, "I'll leave first. I'll send you the styles you like on WeChat later. We'll make an appointment another day."
Qi Ying watched Shi Yu leave and pondered for a while before walking up to lock the door and hanging up a sign that said "Temporarily closed."
