"Alright."
Nanchen was surprisingly cooperative, standing up and following the sales associate to the changing room with his clothes in hand.
He left Yu Ting alone, sitting on a chair and nibbling on the pastries placed on the small glass table nearby from time to time.
With Nanchen gone, the pleasant scent that Yu Ting had come to associate with him disappeared. She slouched in her chair, supporting her chin with one hand and eating out of sheer boredom.
The wait for Nanchen to change wasn’t brief. By the time Yu Ting had finished her fifth cookie, the saleswoman’s voice floated her way.
"The gentleman is ready. What do you think, madam?"
As the saleswoman spoke, the changing room curtain was drawn apart. Bathed in the spotlight, Nanchen was made entirely visible to Yu Ting, taking her breath away.
She thought to herself that the saying ’clothes make the man’ really was true.
Not to mention how Nanchen already looked good in his usual plain clothes.
Now Nanchen was in a finely tailored suit, somewhat similar to his usual white shirt and black pants ensemble but with significant differences. The crisp lines of the shirt were even sharper than before, and the black suit jacket accentuated his broad shoulders and slim waist. The jacket was neatly buttoned up, and the black pants were even more crisp, the seams sharply defined.
He looked distinguished and aloof, every inch the image of a CEO character in a novel - someone of wealth and refinement with unparalleled intellect and eloquence.
Wow, wow, wow.
In that moment, Yu Ting felt like she experienced the joy of players of raising games and fashion games. This feeling was absolutely fantastic.
Buy, buy, buy.
"Buy!" The word slipped out of Yu Ting’s mouth as if it were the highest compliment she could give to Nanchen’s outfit.
Seeing Yu Ting seemingly stunned by his appearance, Nanchen found it a bit amusing.
However, the saleswoman’s next remark stifled his amusement.
"Alright, this suit will be four hundred and thirty thousand in total."
"Buy!"
Nanchen: ?
That’s two years of my own salary.
"Let’s try some more." Yu Ting proposed enthusiastically, lamenting that she didn’t have enough money to buy more than five or six suits.
"Alright, sir, why don’t you try this one next?"
Both Yu Ting and the saleswoman were delighted, and the latter handed Nanchen another suit with a beaming smile. 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮
Having just changed, Nanchen quickly received the new suit.
"..."
The changing room curtain was drawn closed again.
A few minutes later, a different Nanchen appeared before Yu Ting, now dressed in a blue and white striped suit. Compared to the austere ensemble he had just tried on, this one exuded a more approachable vibe.
Despite the similar visual impact, something felt missing. Yu Ting got up and circled around Nanchen a few times.
Then it hit her - he was missing a tie.
She quickly made her way over to the tie section, selected one that matched the color of Nanchen’s suit, and started tying it for him.
Not being proficient at it, Yu Ting could only rely on what she had seen in video clips. Lacking practical experience, she stood on her toes in front of Nanchen, her movements clumsy as she attempted to tie the knot.
Nanchen was taken aback by Yu Ting’s sudden move.
Both stood under the light.
Yu Ting was on tiptoe looking up, Nanchen was looking down at her.
In such close proximity, Nanchen suddenly noticed a small red mark on the side of Yu Ting’s face. It didn’t look like a mosquito bite and was slightly purplish.
"What happened to your face?"
