On the day Xu Mengyu opened her business, Bai Miaomiao was discharged from the hospital. Because the baby was premature, she was quite small and wrinkled.
Zheng Tianming stood protectively behind Xu Mengyu. There were so many fans present that the clothes were almost sold out by the time the line was halfway through.
Xu Mengyu was in a hurry. There were so many people behind her, and the clothes were running out of sizes. There weren't many left.
She couldn't even imagine how disappointed her fans would be.
"Don't rush." Zheng Tianming said, taking out a walkie-talkie: "Transfer the goods from the warehouse, and the people you've assigned can go up."
Xu Mengyu was still signing autographs; everyone who attended, regardless of whether they sold clothes or not, could get a personal autograph.
She knew that her fans came specifically for her; otherwise, why would anyone travel such a long distance just to buy a piece of clothing?
Hu Xiaohui was holding a spray bottle. There were just too many fans. Xu Mengyu had been sitting there signing autographs all morning, and there were still more than half of them left to sign.
Xu Mengyu smiled as she took photos with fans, but her wrist was actually in excruciating pain...
About twenty minutes later, the store clerks began restocking, and Xu Mengyu turned to look at Zheng Tianming.
"I was afraid it wouldn't be enough, so I used my meager living expenses to order an extra batch of goods..." Zheng Tianming said, looking at Xu Mengyu's wrist with heartache.
He didn't say at first that he was worried about not being able to sell the goods, and that if the goods were stuck in his hands, so be it. As long as Xu Mengyu didn't know, he wouldn't be upset. It would be even better if he could sell them...
About thirty minutes later, staff started delivering milk tea and small cakes. These people had been queuing there all morning. Those who came in pairs were fine, but those who came alone were too afraid to even go to the restroom...
Hu Xiaohui bent down: "We're selling so well, who knows how many people are making fun of us online."
Xu Mengyu shrugged: "What can I do if I have no opponents?"
Xu Sichen never expected that he would be detained as a shop assistant when he came to attend the opening ceremony.
"Sister, this dress really doesn't suit you. Why don't you try this white one?" Xu Lu said, running up to the woman with a white dress in her hand.
The woman also felt that she didn't look good in black, but there were too many people, and she kept trying on different styles without success...
"That's three hundred and forty-three in total, I'll take three hundred from you..." Xu Sichen opened the cash register.
"Huh? Doesn't it say 343 on it?" the girl asked, puzzled. The promotional price had already been removed.
Xu Sichen smiled and said, "I'll round it down for you."
"Huh?" The girl paid with her shopping bag, surprised that they could round down the price like that.
Li Mirui wiped the sweat from her forehead: "Selling for a day, you end up losing tens of thousands. What will you do when Mengyu makes a scene?" She was folding clothes for a customer.
Having a daughter is really exhausting, but now that I'm going to take advantage of her, she'll feel bad not helping out.
Xu Sichen took out a hundred from his pocket and threw it into the money box beneath him. Isn't that easy?
Ye Yuncheng sat in the second-floor rest room with the baby in her arms. Bai Miaomiao had just been discharged from the hospital and was not suited to places that were too noisy or crowded.
Pei Xiuyan and Zheng Lin were in charge of hanging up the clothes.
"This money is really hard to earn..." Zheng Lin said, rubbing his lower back. "Old Pei, can you still handle it?"
Pei Xiuyan sat in the chair and peeked out: "It's alright."
"Wait, where did you pull that chair from?" Zheng Lin shouted, he hadn't noticed!
Pei Xiuyan turned the clothes rack around, took the clothes out of the packaging bag and hung them up, and also smoothed out the wrinkles.
I'm already a skeleton, and I shouldn't be tired in places like this.
"Oh my god, that guy was so fierce. I felt like he was going to kill me if I didn't buy anything."
"No, I think he's quite handsome. Have you noticed that several of the shop assistants look familiar...?"
Two girls were picking out clothes while holding milk tea when they turned around and saw Pei Xiuyan!
"Hello, Principal." The two girls hadn't expected to meet the president of Astor University here...
Pei Xiuyan nodded slightly: "Hello."
The two girls felt their hearts skip a beat and quickly left the top section. Just as they were about to look at the dresses, they saw a very familiar figure.
"Professor Lan...good afternoon..."
Pei Lan was holding the dress, wondering when this would end... He nodded slightly: "Good afternoon." He had already met quite a few students and taken photos with them.
Zheng Wanwan suppressed a laugh, while Pei Lan was even more nervous than the two students.
"Want to see this dress? It's not see-through, but it's very breathable, and the style is slimming." Sisters Long Huan and Long Tian enthusiastically promoted the dress.
The boss is here, how could they not come?
This isn't a clothing store opening; it's practically a massive celebrity meet-and-greet!
Most of Xu Mengyu's artists came; a few were stuck in the film crew and couldn't get out.
They all came on their own; Xu Mengyu neither sent an invitation nor notified them in any special way.
Shao Yunhe sells men's clothing on the second floor. He's a natural clothes hanger; he looks incredibly stylish wherever he stands, even in a 50-yuan t-shirt.
In the sports section, Fang Bei saw that Shao Yunhe was selling more than him, and he became extremely anxious, so he worked even harder to serve customers.
Shao Yunhe was secretly pleased with himself. How could a chosen one of heaven do such a job?
Fang Bei turned around and looked at Shao Yunhe in the distance. He was taking a photo with a male fan and was smiling like a flower.
He doesn't believe it, you sissy!
"What are you laughing at? Is it funny that I'm wearing this?" a burly customer shouted angrily. He had just come out of the fitting room and was being mocked, which immediately put him in a bad mood.
Fang Bei glanced at it, puzzled. It looked like a sausage being tied up, with the meat bulging out. "No, I wasn't laughing at you..." At least not just now.
"You're still laughing! Are all the shop assistants as rude as you?" the man shouted angrily.
Seeing this, Shao Yunhe walked over. He looked at the man's clothes and almost couldn't hold back his laughter. Why was the man's belly button still sticking out?
Crop top?
"I'm sorry, this kid has had a mental disability since he was little. The boss is kind-hearted, that's why he was hired. Please don't take it to heart." After saying that, Shao Yunhe picked up a plus-size garment: "Why don't you try this one? It's a best-selling item in the store, it will definitely fit you better."
"No wonder, it turns out he's not very bright." The man took the clothes and went into the changing room.
Shao Yunhe sneered, but fearing that the man might misunderstand, he pressed his forehead against Fang Bei's shoulder, laughing so hard he could hardly breathe.
Fang Bei clicked his tongue: "You think we don't have enough gossip? They even have their own supertopic now, and fans are already leading the way in shipping them. I don't know what they're thinking."
Shao Yunhe looked up at Fang, and the thought of Fang's poor mental capacity made him want to laugh.
Xu Mengyu didn't get a chance to rest and eat a hot meal until the store closed. She was so tired that her hands were shaking when she held chopsticks.
Zheng Tianming fed her with a spoon: "There are still more than a dozen stores to open. You can't keep going like this."
"It has to work even if it doesn't work out." Xu Mengyu said, rubbing her wrist. Although she had applied a plaster, it still hurt.
However, she did not expect that her actions would pose a threat to other celebrities. Many stars have opened their own fashion brand stores. Putting aside the price of the clothes, very few people can even sign autographs.
Many people online have started attacking her, saying the clothes are of poor quality and the service is bad, and some have even posted photos of her.
The comments below, however, were quite unexpected...
"Sister, I advise you to delete it..."
"If you're not a brother, how come you make money from everything? Is your destiny that strong?"
In the photo, Bai Heng is leaning against the wall, making a phone call. He is wearing a black suit with a brown shop assistant apron, and his face is frighteningly somber. He must have received a very important call.
Within minutes, the Weibo post criticizing the poor service was deleted by the blogger himself; he probably knew who the person was...
Xu Mengyu didn't care about anything else; she just signed and sold, hoping her competitors wouldn't be able to sleep.
Whoever tries to take the lead will fail, and whoever doesn't make money deserves it.
However, thanks to Zheng Tianming today, most fans would have been disappointed.
Xu Mengyu had originally planned to treat everyone, but once the shop closed, everyone went home, leaving only her family members behind.
They usually eat together.
"I can't go on anymore." Xu Mengyu stretched after saying that. "I'm going back to sleep now."
Anyway, my father will cover for me.
Xu Sichen stood up, holding a glass of freshly poured wine: "Thank you all for helping Mengyu today. I'll drink this first as a sign of my respect."
Zheng Lin, holding his chopsticks, said, "If you want to drink, then drink this first as a sign of respect."
Xu Sichen kicked Zheng Lin under the table, showing absolutely no tact...
“Your sister-in-law won’t let me drink, so I’ll use tea instead of wine.” Pei Xiuyan said, picking up his teacup. He couldn’t let Xu Sichen finish his sentence.
Li Mirui couldn't bear to expose him. If he wanted to drink, he should have just said so. Why was he being so polite? Why should he be polite to this family?
Pei Kaixin stood up: "Then I will thank everyone on behalf of Tianming."
Bai Miaomiao crossed her arms and said, "You drink it, you try one." She's just trying to pick up a bargain.
Pei Lan looked at Pei Kaixin: "..." If he had been a step ahead of Uncle Xu, perhaps he could have succeeded...
Zheng Wanwan looked at Pei Lan: "You don't want to drink?"
"I don't want to, I never drink alcohol." Pei Lan said, then kissed Zheng Wanwan on the cheek, not bothering to hide it from the elders in her family.
"Come on, everyone, have a smoke to relax," Pei Lan said, taking out a cigarette case.
Everyone looked at Pei Lan.
Ye Yuncheng looked at Pei Xiuyan beside her: "Honey, what are you doing?"
Zheng Lin got up, grabbed a cigarette, and placed it on the table: "I don't smoke. I can't let Xiao Zhuzi feel awkward, can I..."
Xu Sichen looked at Zheng Lin and casually threw the cigarette on the table into the trash can next to him: "Smoking is bad for your health."
"Will drinking make it better?" Zheng Lin said, glancing at the cigarette. His heart ached. Why was it so hard to even smoke a cigarette?
Zheng Wanwan looked up at Pei Lan, holding a lighter in her hand: "Is this what you're looking for?"
“...”
The biggest winner was Xu Sichen, who drank the wine before anyone could say anything.
Xu Lu buried her head in her food, rice grains sticking to her nose...
Although everyone was tired, the atmosphere was very harmonious. After dinner, everyone chatted for a while and then went home to shower and prepare for bed.
Xu Mengyu was lying in bed enjoying a high-end massage.
Zheng Tianming put in an incredibly hard effort. He was actually tired too, but now was not the time to be tired: "Miss, how are you feeling? Are you comfortable?"
"It'll do." Xu Mengyu looked at her phone. A video of her applying the plaster was trending on social media. She had secretly applied it under the table, and yet it was filmed.
Zheng Tianming leaned down: "Um, a director contacted me... saying I could play a captain in a TV series, which would suit me well."
Xu Mengyu turned over and lay on the bed: "Hmm? Tell me which blind director this is, I'll block him later." She knew that Zheng Tianming was by her side, and sooner or later someone would find out about him.
But she didn't expect it to happen so quickly; she wasn't prepared at all.
"Black Egg is venturing into the entertainment industry." Xu Mengyu couldn't help but laugh after saying that. You have to admit, this director has a good eye.
Zheng Tianming tugged at his belt: "If you're going to talk about this, I won't accept it. Look at me, am I not black?"
"..." Xu Mengyu quickly turned her head. She had never seen anyone so shameless. She really wanted to show her how shameless she was.
Zheng Tianming was actually preparing to take a shower, but he was just teasing Xu Mengyu: "The phone is by the bed, see if you can answer it, I don't know anything about this."
Xu Mengyu hummed in agreement. Why tease her? She actually really wanted to see it.
Zheng Tianming went into the bathroom. Of course he knew what the little vixen was thinking, but he couldn't let her see, otherwise he wouldn't be able to get his hands on her.
Xu Mengyu took the phone, entered the password, and opened WeChat. She read it from beginning to end.
Isn't this bullying an idiot?
The pay is so little. Zheng Tianming is quite famous now, who wouldn't want to ride this wave of popularity?
Inviting Zheng Tianming, regardless of his acting skills, brings his own audience, which is equivalent to free advertising.
If the performance is poor, they can simply shift the blame.
The director has been in the entertainment industry for a long time; he's very shrewd.
But don't even think about trying to take advantage of her!
Unless the pay is right.
She sent a message to the other party following the voice message: "I'm sorry, Director Lu, this is my husband's first time acting, he doesn't have much experience, I'm afraid we can't work together."
When Zheng Tianming came out, Xu Mengyu was lying on the bed yawning. She looked very sleepy, but she was still looking at her phone.
"Who are you chatting with?" Zheng Tianming asked, lifting the covers and lying down.
Xu Mengyu found a comfortable position and snuggled into Zheng Tianming's arms: "How about an eight million yuan salary?"
After all, he was just a supporting character with few appearances. He was the protagonist's mentor on his journey, but he got injured during a mission and had to retire.
"We only gave 1.2 million before," Zheng Tianming said, pulling Xu Mengyu into his arms. "Is the rest for advertising?"
"He's not completely stupid." Xu Mengyu said, putting down her phone. After all, Zheng Tianming was a newcomer, and it wasn't appropriate for him to ask for an exorbitant salary, especially for a TV series of this genre.
Zheng Tianming kissed Xu Mengyu: "Alright, go to sleep."
Xu Mengyu started to have doubts. What was wrong with Zheng Tianming? Why wasn't he taking advantage of her anymore?
Is it normal or reasonable for people who used to crave meat to now voluntarily start eating vegetarian food?
"Goodnight." Zheng Tianming said, turning around to go to sleep.
Xu Mengyu turned to the side and hugged his waist: "What's wrong?" As she spoke, she reached down to feel: "Let me touch you, are you tired?"
Zheng Tianming grasped Xu Mengyu's hand: "I'm sleepy." He then yawned.
Xu Mengyu: "..." What does that mean?
