Su Qingyue was wearing a simple white T-shirt and jeans today. Ye Jiu looked him over and, on a whim, immediately asked the driver, Uncle Wang, to take him to the mall.
The large shopping mall located in the city center belongs to the Ye family. It integrates dining, clothing, and accommodation, and houses most of the luxury stores, making it the best choice for shopping.
Ye Jiu pulled Su Qingyue straight to the men's clothing store. Su Qingyue was still a little confused when she stood in the men's clothing store. "Buy it for me?"
Ye Jiu nodded, "Or I could buy one for my dad while I'm at it. Yes, that's it." She nodded again, confirming that buying one for her father was just a side thing.
Su Qingyue is tall and well-proportioned, and Ye Jiu firmly believes that he looks good in anything. She specially found a few oddly designed and oddly colored clothes and handed them to him, saying, "They all say that good-looking people can even wear burlap sacks. Go try them on, and I want to see if they look good on you."
Su Qingyue took the ugly clothes with a hint of disdain, hesitated several times before finally sighing, "Fine, I'll just treat it as playing a dress-up game with you."
The sales assistants were shocked when they saw the clothes Ye Jiu was holding. These clothes, which had been sitting unsold for generations, were actually being tried on by someone?! They were so shocked that they didn't immediately follow them to introduce the clothes. When they came to their senses and tried to go over to serve her, Ye Jiu frantically waved her hands.
"No, no, we'll just look around on our own. Don't follow me, NO!" Having a sales assistant following me is really stressful. No, no.
Ye Jiu stood outside the fitting room waiting for Su Qingyue to come out. The first item she tried on was a purple coat. The design was fine, but the color was too picky about who it suited. This was probably the most normal-looking of the few clothes Ye Jiu had picked up.
Most men would look gay in this shade of purple, which doesn't suit their personal style. But Su Qingyue doesn't have that feeling when he wears it. His fair skin means there are almost no colors he would wear that would be a fashion faux pas.
Ye Jiu stroked her chin to confirm, "Sure enough, the success of fashion depends entirely on the face. Don't try anything else, it's too much of a challenge for you, haha. Let's look at something normal." Ye Jiu walked over and helped him take off his jacket, then casually handed the jacket and the other clothes Su Qingyue was carrying to a passing sales assistant.
Ye Jiu led Su Qingyue around, picking up many clothes here and there. She held them up on Su Qingyue and felt that every one of them suited him.
Which ones do you want? Or maybe you want them all?
Su Qingyue casually pointed to a T-shirt and a pair of pants, "These two will do."
"Hmm? Only two pieces?" Ye Jiu had the two pieces wrapped up, and then picked out two shirts and a suit to wrap up as well. "There's a ball in early September, consider this payment for you being my date."
"But I don't think I ever agreed to that."
"So I acted first and informed you later," Ye Jiu said confidently. "If I invited you first, you might not have accepted, but since I've already given you the reward, you can't refuse, right? Hehe."
Ye Jiu pointed to the clothes that were being paid for; these were the "rewards".
After packing the clothes, Ye Jiu swiped her card. They hadn't bought many items, but they had quite a few bags. Su Qingyue took it upon herself to act as Ye Jiu's bag-carrying assistant.
Carrying so many bags was too much trouble, so Ye Jiu looked around, picked up her phone and made a call. Soon after, several bodyguards came over and took the bags from Su Qingyue's hands.
"This is my bodyguard. Have him take the clothes to the car, and let's continue shopping." Ye Jiu waved to the bodyguard and then beckoned to Su Qingyue to follow.
"I want to look at bags, will you come with me to pick one out?"
Su Qingyue quickly followed her but always lagged behind by half a step. It was clear that they were together, but it didn't make them seem too intimate. Taking advantage of Ye Jiu's inability to see, Su Qingyue traced her back with his eyes.
Miss Ye... just what kind of person are you?
As soon as Ye Jiu reached the store entrance, all the sales assistants came out to greet her. They had heard rumors that the young lady was coming; she was a big customer.
"Miss, these are some new bags in the store. This one is a classic style, and this one is a limited edition. Do you like them? If not, you can look at other bags in the store; they're all in stock."
Surrounded by a crowd, Ye Jiu and Su Qingyue entered the store one after the other. Not long after they started looking around, they heard someone call her name.
"Ye Jiu?" A man was standing at the store entrance. He had dreadlocks and colorful ropes, wore a skull-patterned short-sleeved shirt and ripped jeans, and was covered in jingling accessories. He also had a big gold watch on his arm. He looked like a hoodlum. To put it nicely, he was a rapper; to put it bluntly, he was a thug.
Ye Jiu stared at the person in front of her for a second, then called out, "Uncle!"
"It really is you, here to buy a bag." The man, Xu Bufan, walked into the store with his hands in his pockets and put his arm around Ye Jiu's shoulder, looking like they were good buddies.
"Oh, is this your boyfriend?" Xu Bufan gestured for Ye Jiu to introduce Su Qingyue.
"Oh, he's not my boyfriend yet. This is my classmate, Su Qingyue. She's a very good student." Ye Jiu then introduced Xu Bufan to Su Qingyue, "This is my uncle, Xu Bufan. He's only five years older than us."
Ye Jiu secretly leaned closer to Su Qingyue and lowered her voice, "My uncle has a dream of becoming a rapper, but his family doesn't support him. Don't be fooled by his clothes, he's actually a good person."
Xu Bufan put his arm around Ye Jiu and said, "Have you picked out any bags yet? Your uncle will give you a few."
Not wanting to disturb them, Su Qingyue said, "I'll go to the restroom first."
After Su Qingyue walked away, Xu Bufan leaned closer to Ye Jiu and asked, "Hey, tell me what's going on? Do you like that kid? Are you pursuing him?"
...
Zhao Linlin had just received her allowance today and couldn't wait to call Chen Wenxin out shopping. The two lived in the same neighborhood and often went out together.
The shopping mall wasn't too big or too small. As soon as Zhao Linlin came out of the clothing store, she saw a familiar figure in the shop across the street.
Zhao Linlin tugged at Chen Wenxin's sleeve, "Hey, look! Isn't that Ye Jiu?"
"Huh? Who?" Chen Wenxin followed Zhao Linlin's gaze and looked over. "It really is Ye Jiu! But it's normal for her to come and buy a bag, right?"
"What do you mean 'normal'? Look at the people around her, aren't they thugs?"
Chen Wenxin squinted and looked closely. "He's definitely not dressed like a good person. No way, how could Ye Jiu be with someone like this?"
"Tsk, that thug was so close to her, there's definitely something wrong with him."
"I never thought Ye Jiu was this kind of person."
Zhao Linlin decisively threw down the shopping bag in her hand, took out her phone to take pictures, and said, "Take a picture first. She dares to go against Banmeng. Whether it's true or not, let her suffer a bit."
"Isn't this a bit inappropriate, Linlin?" Chen Wenxin was a little scared. Ye Jiu had never revealed her family background. If she got into trouble with someone she shouldn't have, what these spoiled young masters feared most was that it would affect their family business.
"It's alright, there's still Banmeng, isn't there? Don't you know what kind of family Banmeng's family is? I don't believe her family can be more powerful than the Xia family."
The Zhao and Chen families are both considered to be at the bottom of the elite circles, so they naturally don't have access to important figures, let alone children like Zhao Linlin and Chen Wenxin, who think the Xia family is the ceiling.
