Wen Xiao put on a set of clothes and stood in front of the mirror. She looked at herself in the mirror, while other customers were looking at her. Not only did they look at them, but they also whispered about how beautiful the clothes looked on her.
Celebrities always have better temperament than ordinary people, and clothes look better on them.
Wen Xiao was very satisfied with the several sets she tried on. She put them on, looked at them left and right in front of the mirror, and finally bought them all. One of the sets was given away through a lottery, and the rest were paid for by Xie Dongyang.
Wen Xiao tried on and bought clothes here, which directly pushed the enthusiasm of the opening ceremony to its highest point.
After the opening ceremony during the day, all the staff involved in the event, invited relatives and friends, and all the family members went to the restaurant for dinner in the evening.
Because the opening event was so successful, it was also very lively when we were eating and drinking.
As the big boss of Rose Pavilion, Ruan Xi inevitably drank a little more.
After the meal, everyone waved and said polite words in the night, asking each other to be careful on the road, and then went home. Ling Yao drove Ruan Xi and Ruan Qiuyue, first sent Ruan Qiuyue back to school, and then drove Ruan Xi home.
Only Ling Yao and I were left in the car. Ruan Xi sat in the passenger seat, propped up her head and looked at him. She looked a little sober and suddenly asked him, "How is my sister? Is she very powerful?"
Ling Yao continued while driving: "Yes, my sister is very good."
Ruan Xi smiled with satisfaction and said, "Don't call me sister, call me...rich woman!"
Ling Yao turned his head to look at her and couldn't help laughing, "Okay, rich woman."
Ruan Xi was even more satisfied. Suddenly, she leaned over with drunken eyes and kissed Ling Yao on the cheek with a strong smell of alcohol. It's not a romantic and gentle kiss. When you kiss, you make a sound - MUA~
After the kiss, he even said: "You deserve a rich woman's kiss."
Ling Yao couldn't help but smile and replied: "Thank you, rich lady."
Because the rich woman was drunk, I had to help her remove her makeup and take a bath when she got home.
It was not until midnight that the courtyard finally became completely quiet.
The next day, Ling Yao was awakened by the alarm clock. He reached out to turn off the alarm and got up. Because Ruan Xi drank and went to bed late, he did not wake her up, but let her sleep a little longer at home.
When Ruan Xi woke up, it was already noon. She got up, washed up and had lunch directly.
After finishing my meal and sitting down in the company, not long after, there was a knock on the door.
After saying "Come in", the door was opened from the outside.
Qian Chuan took another newspaper and handed it to Ruan Xi, saying, "There should have been reporters yesterday. Our opening event was reported in the newspaper again, with the focus on who was the lucky star who drew the clothes, and also Wen Xiao."
Ruan Xi took the newspaper and took a look. The reporter actually interviewed two other customers who had won the clothes. They also took pictures of Wen Xiao standing in front of a mirror trying on clothes, and gave a lot of space to report this incident.
Not a single penny was spent on advertising from beginning to end, and it was featured in newspapers twice, earning all the publicity it deserved. Ruan Xi naturally felt very happy, with an unconcealable smile on his face.
After reading it, she put the newspaper on the desk, looked at her watch and said, "Notice, the meeting will start at two o'clock."
Shengfang became well-known locally with just an opening warm-up and opening ceremony. Of course, the opening of this Shengfang store did not affect the business of Rose Pavilion too much, because the two stores have different positioning and target groups.
Shengfang opened successfully, and its daily sales performance was very stable after the opening, so Ruan Xi's pressure was reduced a lot. The next step is to carry out design and production step by step, ensuring the style and quality.
The warm spring weather makes people feel sleepy in the afternoon.
Ruan Xi sat behind her desk, flipping through a fashion magazine and drinking coffee. She mainly reads the color pages in magazines, which recommend domestic and international fashion trends. The latest issue contains several new products.
I finished flipping through the magazine and finishing the coffee in the cup.
Ruan Xi had just closed the magazine and put down the cup when there was another knock on the office door.
She hired an assistant for herself these two days, the girl is called Cheng Nuonuo.
Cheng Nuonuo opened the office door and walked in with a fashionably dressed woman and said, "Mr. Ruan, Miss Wen is here."
When Ruan Xi saw Wen Xiao following behind Cheng Nuonuo, she quickly stood up with a smile and greeted Wen Xiao.
Just meeting once and having a meal together makes them friends, especially since Ruan Xi and Xie Dongyang have been friends for many years. Ruan Xi asked Wen Xiao to sit down on the sofa, and Cheng Nuonuo went to make a pot of tea and brought some cakes and snacks.
Ruan Xi and Wen Xiao drank tea and chatted for a while. After a while, Ruan Xi asked her, "How about I take you to my studio?"
Wen Xiao came to the company to find Ruan Xi, of course not to have afternoon tea and chat with her, she wanted to find Ruan Xi to design a wedding dress for her wedding. She nodded, stood up, and went to the studio next door with Ruan Xi.
Following Ruan Xi into the studio door, Wen Xiao was instantly shocked.
As a singer, she had actually worn quite a few performance costumes, but none of the performance costumes she had seen were as beautiful as the ones hanging in Ruan Xi's studio, especially the dresses, which were dazzlingly beautiful at first glance.
Wen Xiao walked slowly into the studio, looked here and there, and was stunned.
Seeing that she was absorbed in what she was looking at, Ruan Xi did not disturb her and let her look at all the clothes hanging in the studio first.
Wen Xiao returned to Ruan Xi after reading it and couldn't help but exclaimed: "Did you make all these clothes?"
Ruan Xi nodded at her, "Yes, that's all I have."
Wen Xiao asked again: "Aren't you selling these clothes?"
Ruan Xi smiled and said, "These clothes will not be sold in bulk, they are only made for people who like them."
These clothes are more like works of art, and are also her ultimate pursuit as a tailor and designer. Although she has opened a company and owns two fashion brands, becoming a business owner, she will not give up making clothes.
No matter how her environment and identity change, her determination to be a tailor for life will never change.
Wen Xiao was so touched that he looked at Ruan Xi and asked, "Can I... choose?"
Ruan Xi smiled and said, "Of course, you can try any clothes here. Choose the style and design you like, and I will make you a unique one."
As a singer who has performed on stage countless times and worn many dresses, Wen Xiao couldn't stop trying on clothes the first time. She tried on the clothes in Ruan Xi's studio for a whole afternoon, and finally decided on her favorite one in the evening.
In fact, she likes them all, but she can only do one set.
After choosing the dress style, Ruan Xi personally measured her body size and said to her: "Give me a month, I will make a blank sample first, and then you can try it on. If you are not satisfied with it, I will help you modify it."
Wen Xiao had delayed Ruan Xi's entire afternoon and was already very embarrassed. He hurriedly said, "I'm not in a hurry. We may not have the wedding until the end of the year. Just take your time. There's no need to rush."
After that, she asked Ruan Xi: "Where do you pay? I'll pay first."
Ruan Xi was not in a hurry for money, she just said: "Wait until the dress is made, and let Xie Dongyang pay for it."
Wen Xiao thought it was okay, so he smiled and said, "Okay, then let him hand it in when the time comes."
After talking about this, it was almost time to get off work. Wen Xiao didn't have anything else to do today, so he asked Ruan Xi to go out for dinner together. It just so happened that Ling Yao also had to work overtime today, so Ruan Xi went to the restaurant with Wen Xiao.
Without Xie Dongyang and Ling Yao around, the conversation would be more casual.
Ruan Xi talked to Wen Xiao: "I heard from Xie Dongyang that you are very busy and often perform outside."
When it comes to performing for money, Wen Xiao suddenly sighed and said, "Don't mention it. I was punished by the group for taking private jobs and performing for money. I was demoted and fined. Now I don't dare to do it anymore."
Ruan Xi knew that Wen Xiao was a member of the song and dance troupe, which had a formal position and received a fixed salary.
She thought for a moment and then said, "So you don't have any other plans? I heard from Xie Dongyang that he wants to open a record company for you."
Wen Xiao said: "I have thought about resigning, but if I quit, I can't take jobs under the name of the dance troupe, and I can't find anywhere else to go. I feel very uncertain. There is no visible way out locally for the time being. Many people go to the south to sing pop songs in karaoke bars, singing pop songs from Taiwan and Hong Kong. I have no industry experience at all, and it's not easy to open a record company."
Ruan Xi nodded after listening to it, "That really needs to be carefully considered."
Wen Xiao swallowed the food in his mouth and seemed to no longer be conflicted. He just said, "I'm not in a hurry for now. I'm not that famous, and my foundation is not that solid. I'd better stay in the troupe and perform well. Otherwise, it would be bad to ruin my job."
Seeing that she had her own plans and ideas, Ruan Xi naturally didn't say anything more.
The two chatted about some light topics, then separated after dinner and went home.
When Ruan Xi got home, Ling Yao had not returned yet. She took her clothes and took a shower. Then she went to the kitchen and made a bowl of bitter melon moisturizing mask. After applying it on her face, she lay down in the main room and watched TV.
Dream of the Red Chamber was being broadcast on TV. Ruan Xi was lying down and watching half an episode when the phone at home suddenly rang.
Ruan Xi thought it was Ling Yao calling back, so she stood up, picked up the receiver, and said "Hello" directly.
But the voice that came out of the receiver was not Ling Yao's, but an older male voice, who only asked her: "Is this Ruan Xi? Is this Ruan Xi's family?"
Ruan Xi didn't recognize who it was, so she asked, "Yes, I'm Ruan Xi, may I ask who you are?"
The person on the other end of the phone said, "Xiaoxi, this is Director Liu from the village. No one answered your phone during the day. I called several times but no one answered. I had no choice but to stay at the brigade and call you at night."
Ruan Xi naturally remembered Director Liu from the countryside, and hurriedly said, "I'm sorry, Director Liu, I'm busy at the company during the day. What do you want to talk to me about?"
Director Liu said, "It's like this. Because of the plan from above, all of our land will be demolished. It was decided at the beginning of the year. Recently, the policies on resettlement and compensation have been finalized, so we need to find each household to sign an agreement. If you are free, please come to the village committee in the near future to sign the agreement, okay?"
Are you sure it's been demolished? This was such a sudden surprise that Ruan Xi subconsciously took the receiver with both hands and said quickly, "Hey Director Liu, I got it. Thank you. I'll make time to go over there in the next two days."
Director Liu answered on the other end, "Okay, okay, okay, we'll talk about the rest after we meet. Come over earlier."
