Chapter 231 Yiwu (4)
"Hello, feel free to look around. If you like anything, you can try it on!"
Seeing someone coming in, the middle-aged woman put down the work in her hands, got down from the operating table and walked to Tian Xin.
She didn't rush to introduce herself to Tian Xin, but instead looked her over. In just a few seconds, Tian Xin felt like she was being seen through by this person. He knew her height, weight, and measurements, and probably even her bra size!
Pointing casually at a cheongsam next to her, she asked the owner awkwardly: "How much is this..."
"You can't wear this?" the shop owner interrupted her.
Tian Xin was extremely embarrassed: "Oh, I can't wear it!" She put down the dress and picked up another one: "Then this one..."
"You can't wear this either!"
???
"What about this one?"
“I can’t wear it!”
What's going on?
She simply pointed to a row of cheongsams on the shelf in front of her and asked, "What about these?"
"None of these can be worn!" said the shop owner.
"Why can't I wear it?" Tian Xin was a little angry: "Didn't you just say I could try it on if I liked it?"
"Girl, you are too thin. These cheongsams are not suitable for you. Go and have a look at other stores!" The owner looked at Tian Xin and said lightly.
She didn't look as smart as the other shop owners. Instead, she had a stern face and didn't even have any expression. After she finished speaking, she turned around and went to the operating counter. It seemed that she didn't intend to receive Tian Xin!
There are people like this? They chase customers away even when they come to the store? Tian Xin was a little shocked.
Before she could reply, Lin Zhou chased in. Hearing the shop owner's words, he pointed to the sign on the wall and asked in a deep voice, "Can't it be tailor-made? Why can't I wear it?"
"For custom-made products, we have to select the right people. I won't accept orders that are not suitable!" The owner was concentrating on the work in his hands, and his tone was still as flat and indifferent as before.
"Oh?" Lin Zhou couldn't help himself. He looked around the store's decorations and various cheongsams and asked her, "What do you mean by unsuitable? This is the first time I've heard of tailor-made products being so selective with the person who wears them!"
"Of course I have to choose. If I don't dress well, it's my reputation that will be ruined!"
This made Lin Zhou laugh. He walked over to the shop owner and said, "As a businessman, if the deal doesn't work out, then just give up. Why are you humiliating her? Don't you think it's rude to say such things?"
His voice was low and his eyes were cold, not as gentle as usual. The last time he was like this was when he was teaching Zhang Shuai a lesson.
Tian Xin didn't want to get involved, so she went over and pulled him away, but Lin Zhou didn't let her this time. He just stood there and looked at the owner coldly.
The shop owner paused, put down his work, and looked up: "Am I not telling the truth? Don't you know that cheongsams are very picky about who they are?"
"No matter how picky the person is, it's still a piece of clothing. Whether it's good to wear or not depends on whether the style of the clothing fits the body. What does that have to do with the person? Can the clothing actually control the person?"
Lin Zhou pulled Tian Xin over and stood in front of the shop owner, then coldly spat out two words: "Apologize!"
"Haha..." The shop owner was immediately amused when she saw his attitude. She stood up and walked down from the workbench, took out a tape measure from the front desk, walked back to Tian Xin, and without asking anything, started measuring her.
Lin Zhou was startled, and he pulled Tian Xin to hide behind him, and asked in a deep voice: "What are you doing?"
The owner said nothing and walked up to Tian Xin again: "Miss, I was offended just now. I'm sorry, please don't mind it!" After saying that, without waiting for Tian Xin to respond, he started to measure her.
Tian Xin was no longer happy with this. She waved her hands and stepped back a few steps: "Master, you can apologize if you want, but please don't measure me. I really can't wear a cheongsam with my figure. It's useless to measure me. I won't buy it!"
After saying that, she took Lin Zhou's hand and raised her chin towards the door: "Let's go!"
When Lin Zhou saw the owner apologize, his anger subsided and he turned around and followed Tian Xin out the door.
"etc!"
As soon as the two walked out, the owner followed them with the tape measure in his hand.
Seeing the two of them turn around, she smiled and said, "Girl, why don't you come in first? I'll make some adjustments based on your measurements. Maybe I can make something that will fit you!"
These few words changed his attitude completely. The cold look just now disappeared completely, and his enthusiasm even seemed a little unnatural.
After hearing this, Lin Zhouyi pulled Tian Xin away and said, "No, thank you! Let's go somewhere else!"
When the shop owner saw the man leave, he quickly shouted from behind: "We don't make cheongsams anymore..."
"I'll make a skirt, a Chinese-style skirt. You can definitely wear it..."
Tian Xin and Lin Zhou didn't hear the latter part of the sentence, as they had already walked very far away!
There are many kinds of clothing on the second floor, and there is more than one store selling cheongsams.
Although this is a wholesale market, the boutique women's clothing area on the second floor is mostly engaged in retail.
The quality and prices of these stores vary widely, ranging from high-end brand names to affordable special offers.
The two ran all over the second floor but couldn't find a store selling Chinese clothing.
"Let's look up! Maybe it's on the third or fourth floor!" Tian Xin talked and laughed as she walked with Lin Zhou.
After coming out of the cheongsam shop, he was a little absent-minded. Although he followed Tian Xin closely and asked about each shop, his eyes were always fixed on the shop selling cheongsams.
"That one is good, let's go and take a look!" Lin Zhou said, pointing to a cheongsam store the two had just visited.
"Haven't we been there just now?" Tian Xin looked in the direction he pointed and said with a smile: "Why are you staring at the cheongsam? I'm not buying it!"
"Why not? I think that one is pretty good, the quality is much better than the first one. She's the only one on the second floor that's decent! Go ahead and buy one!"
Lin Zhou said this, pulling her up and walking towards the store.
The two of them had already reached the elevator entrance. Going there and back again would require a long detour. Tian Xin had been walking all day and didn't want to take another step. Seeing that he was determined to go, she grabbed his hand and pulled him back.
"What's wrong with you? Are you angry?" Tian Xin looked at Lin Zhou's face and smiled: "Not really!"
Lin Zhou said nothing and pulled her forward again: "Go ahead and buy one!"
"I can't walk anymore. You go if you want. I want to go upstairs!" Tian Xin let go of her hand and returned to the elevator.
Before she even got on the elevator, she suddenly felt her feet go empty and she lost control. Then she was lifted into the air and was picked up by Lin Zhou.
"What are you doing?" She screamed, quickly looked around, slapped Lin Zhou's arm, and whispered to him: "Put me down quickly, this is so embarrassing!"
"What's so embarrassing!" Lin Zhou pulled her closer to him and said nonchalantly, "Why didn't you tell me earlier that you couldn't walk? Do you think I'm just a decoration?"
"Who would dare to treat you like a decoration? No, what's your situation? I already said I won't buy... I won't go!"
"That's not up to you. You must listen to me today!"
