Chapter 7 "It's going to rain heavily, Aying."
Qi Ying found a tape measure in the utility room, along with a pair of scissors and a pile of needles and thread.
Looking at the fully-equipped small box in her hand, Qi Ying kind of believed that she was also a designer in this world. Otherwise, who would have so many messy things at home?
All the clothes at home were ready-made. Qi Ying picked out a few sets of soft clothes that did not make them look old, and prepared to alter them for Xing Xiaochu to wear. When she took all these out, Xing Xiaochu was already waiting for her in the study.
"Have you been waiting for a long time?" Qi Ying kicked the door shut and said to her, "I found some clothes for you. Wear them today. I'll go to the mall to buy more for you tomorrow."
Xing Xiaochu nodded. It didn't matter to her what she wore.
Qi Ying took out a tape measure and motioned Xing Xiaochu to stand in front of her. She was going to start measuring.
The white tape measure was placed around Xing Xiaochu's shoulders, and Qi Ying measured the other person's size while writing it down in a notebook with a pen.
Xing Xiaochu didn't dare to move. She stood straight and let Qi Ying measure her. When Qi Ying measured her waist, she accidentally touched her. Xing Xiaochu was shocked all over and lowered her eyebrows, not daring to look at her.
It was Qi Ying who apologized first.
"I'm sorry." Qi Ying said softly, "Did I touch your ticklish spot?"
Xing Xiaochu's face flushed, and after a long while she hummed softly.
Qi Ying was very serious when she was working. She measured Xing Xiaochu's bust and waist and found that they were similar to what she had estimated.
One foot six, which is about 60 centimeters, so thin that you can hold it in your hand.
What surprised Qi Ying the most was Xing Xiaochu's bust. It looked small, but it turned out to be B. Qi Ying had always thought it was A... and Xing Xiaochu's nutrition was not very good. I believe that if she was fed a little more, her figure would become fuller and she would be more beautiful.
Qi Ying has thought it all out. Xing Xiaochu will become a big star and Qi Ying will be her designer. When the time comes, the little girl will perform on the stage wearing the clothes she designed, and she will be very proud standing in the audience.
But it seems quite difficult to cultivate a big star, right?
As he was thinking about this, Xing Xiaochu's size had already been measured.
Qi Ying put away the measuring tape and said to her, "Let me get you two sets of pajamas first. You can't always wear this one."
Xing Xiaochu nodded, and saw Qi Ying clear out the things on the desk, turn a pajamas over, and directly untie the seams on the side to start altering it.
Since there was no sewing machine, they had to sew by hand. Qi Ying was a skilled worker, so altering clothes was a very simple task. She could finish a piece in less than half an hour. The longest time was spent on the hemming.
Qi Ying shook the altered pajamas and said to Xing Xiaochu, "Okay, put them on and try them on."
Xing Xiaochu's eyes lit up. It was the first time she saw someone altering clothes, and it was specially tailored for her. She was very happy holding the dress. After she changed it, she showed it to Qi Ying, and even Qi Ying's eyes lit up.
Xing Xiaochu is very beautiful and has a good figure. She used to wear baggy clothes and couldn't tell whether they were good or bad. Now, after wearing the fitted clothes that I made for her, she looks much more eye-catching.
That waist is so thin that you can squeeze water out of it.
She also has that beautiful waist-to-hip ratio, straight and white legs, and even her fingers are beautiful with distinct joints. It's a pity that she is not a big star.
"It looks good." Qi Ying praised generously, "You should wear clothes like this."
Xing Xiaochu was a little shy when she was praised. The tips of her ears turned red. She pinched the corner of her clothes and smiled shyly: "Thank you for making the clothes for me, sister. I like it very much."
Qi Ying also smiled and said, "If you like it, I'll make a few more for you so you can wear them alternately."
Xing Xiaochu nodded and came over obediently to help Qi Ying.
Qi Ying spent an entire night making three sets of clothes for Xing Xiaochu. He asked her to try each set on. Every time she tried them on, Qi Ying's eyes lit up.
Xing Xiaochu has a figure as good as a mannequin, and is the type of model that designers like most. If time permits, Qi Ying can make eight hundred sets of clothes for her, and even has thought of how to draw the design drawings.
"It's getting late, we should rest." Qi Ying cleaned up the mess in the room and said to Xing Xiaochu who was sweeping the floor, "You should go to bed, I'll clean up here."
"It's okay, I can clean it up." Xing Xiaochu smiled while holding the brush: "My sister made so many clothes for me today, I should clean up."
It was the first time that Qi Ying saw her smile so happily. She pursed her lips and said softly, "Okay, then we'll clean up together."
After quickly and simply tidying up the study, Qi Ying placed the garbage at the door to be thrown away the next day, then turned around and said to Xing Xiaochu, "Let's go back to the room."
Xing Xiaochu nodded at her.
After quitting the game in the bedroom, Qi Ying began to tidy up her shop. By the time she finished and lay down on the bed, it was already past 11 o'clock. The alleys around were very quiet. In addition, Qi Ying had been working all day and made three sets of clothes for Xing Xiaochu in the evening. She was so tired that she fell asleep on the pillow.
In the next few days, Qi Ying would enter the game on time every morning to say hello to Xing Xiaochu, and then go out to "work". If he was not busy in the evening, he would log into the game at 7 o'clock, and if he was busy, he would "go home" at eight or nine o'clock.
Sometimes Qi Ying would feel dazed, thinking that she was not playing a game, but was really lucky to have someone like Xiaochu waiting for her.
Today, Qi Ying sent the first version of the wedding dress to the bride and planned to arrange a time for her to come to the store to try it on and see if there was anything that needed to be adjusted. The bride seemed to be busy and it was not until midnight that she confirmed a meeting time with Qi Ying next week.
In other words, Qi Ying will be out of work until next week.
The weather is getting hotter and hotter. Every time Xia Ruoxin comes, she acts like a dog about to die of heat. She holds the air conditioner and turns it on all the time. Qi Ying is afraid that she will get facial paralysis due to the excessive cooling.
"Don't blow into the wind." Qi Ying poured her a glass of iced sparkling water, pushed it in front of her and said, "Have you forgotten how long you had injections for facial paralysis when you were in school?"
Xia Ruoxin was suddenly reminded of her school days. She moved her butt away from the air outlet, gulped down a few gulps of sparkling water, burped and said, "It's getting hotter and hotter now. Going out is a torture."
"Then you should just rest at home for the time being." Qi Ying looked at the scenery outside the window and said, "Look, there's not even a single person on the street, and there's no business in the store. You're here, and there's nothing to do except sit there and stare at me."
"But I am a shareholder of this store after all. If I don't come, wouldn't I be a loser?" Xia Ruoxin said, "Although I invested in this store and your technology and I am responsible for running the store, I definitely can't let you suffer any loss, and I have to come here often to help you."
Xia Ruoxin is a second-generation rich kid whose family owns a large supermarket chain. Her parents love their daughter and don't want her to work, so they gave Xia Ruoxin several million to invest for fun. It doesn't matter what she invests in, as long as she is happy.
So Xia Ruoxin took a fancy to Qi Ying. It happened that Qi Ying had some conflicts with the company's leaders and was about to resign. Xia Ruoxin took the initiative to come up to her and wanted to open a store with her.
Qi Ying agreed without hesitation. After all, he could open the store he wanted without spending any money of his own. Such a good thing would be gone forever if he missed it, so Qi Ying would certainly not let it go.
Moreover, no matter whether the store makes a profit or a loss, Qi Ying doesn't have to ask about it. If the store makes a profit, the rich woman will give her a bonus. If the store loses money, the rich woman will also pay her a salary. In any case, Qi Ying will not lose money.
However, the clothes designed by Qi Ying are very beautiful. Even though they are very expensive, there are still many people rushing to buy them. For example, the new shirt that was launched in spring sold 20,000 pieces in the store alone. In the end, the weather was getting hotter and hotter and it couldn't be sold anymore, so Xia Ruoxin stopped production.
"Baby, you are my cash cow~" Xia Ruoxin happily swung her legs and said to Qi Ying, "With you here, I don't have to worry about anything."
Qi Ying looked at her with a smile and said nothing.
The sky was clear in the morning, but it became hot and humid at noon. There was even a small tornado on the ground, blowing garbage and fallen leaves all over the sky.
Xia Ruoxin looked at the dark sky and said to Qi Ying, "It's going to rain heavily, Ah Ying."
Qi Ying came over with the coffee, took a look, and said "hmm" softly.
It's going to rain heavily.
Qi Ying was worried that if Xia Ruoxin didn't leave now, she might encounter a traffic jam due to heavy rain, so she asked them to leave quickly. After they left, Qi Ying moved the flower pots and chairs outside the door in. Just as he finished these, he heard a "boom" sound, and then it started to rain heavily.
'bite--'
The cell phone on the long wooden table suddenly rang. Qi Ying turned around to look at it and picked it up.
[Dear designer, your Xiaochu seems to be very afraid of thunder. Little Xiaochu lacks a sense of security. Maybe spending more time with her at this time will make her feel more at ease! ]
Qi Ying was stunned. The rain outside the window was so heavy that no one could be seen. The rain and fog were heavy and dense. It didn't look like anyone would come to the window in the short term.
Without hesitation, she hung an out-of-office sign at the door and logged directly into the game.
As soon as he appeared, he stood at the door of his house. Qi Ying quickly opened the door and heard another "boom" sound. He could even see a very close lightning not far outside the floor-to-ceiling window.
The room was pitch black, Qi Ying quickly called out: "Xiaochu! Xiaochu, where are you!"
Xing Xiaochu was squatting in the closet with her head in her hands. She covered her ears and her whole body was shaking. The thunder was too loud and she was scared.
“…Xiaochu!”
Xing Xiaochu seemed to hear someone calling her name. She opened her eyes blankly, then bravely put down her hands quietly. Then she heard Qi Ying's anxious voice outside: "Xing Xiaochu!"
"Wow——"
Qi Ying opened the closet door in Xing Xiaochu's room and looked at the little girl curled up in the small closet. She couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. She squatted down, opened her arms and hugged her, and said to her with peace of mind: "Xiaochu, are you scared? It's okay, I'm here."
