“I have no idea how Shen Baixiang got my phone number, but he just called me, asking me to share a meal with him. It’s so disgusting!” Xu Qinyin complained.
“Well, I bet he must have found out your real family background and now wants to get you back,” Gu Ning said.
“I know, but I still feel disgusted,” Xu Qinyin said.
Shen Baixiang wasn’t the kind of man who deserved her love.
“What happened?” Zi Beiying was confused and curious.
Xu Qinyin then told Zi Beiying what had happened to her, and Zi Beiying also agreed that she should stay away from the man.
On their way to the store, Zi Beiying received a call, so Xu Qinyin approached Gu Ning at once. “Gu Ning, don’t you think that Jinchen and Zi Beiying could be a perfect couple?”
Although Xu Qinyin deliberately kept her voice low, Zi Beiying still heard it.
Zi Beiying felt a little uneasy, but still wanted to know Gu Ning’s opinion.
Gu Ning was struck dumb for a second, then said, “Yeah, I think they are two of a kind.”
Hearing Gu Ning’s answer, Zi Beiying got more nervous.
Xu Qinyin, however, got excited. “Right? I also believe that they can be perfect together. I told Jinchen to chase Zi Beiying, but he ignored me.”
“Well, let them figure it out for themselves. If they like each other, they’ll get together one day,” Gu Ning said.
Although Zi Beiying and Xu Jinchen could be a perfect couple, they still needed to know more about each other.
Xu Qinyin cocked her eyebrow, then said nothing.
When they walked into the Charm store, there were many people shopping there.
Some were attracted by Charm’s fame, while some liked its designs. Most importantly, Charm had a good reputation for its quality and designs.
Both Zi Beiying and Xu Qinyin were attracted to the gowns once they entered the store. They left Gu Ning behind and ran to shop for beautiful dresses, which amused Gu Ning.
Gu Ning also felt happy that the products of her company became so popular.
Yu Zi was very busy, so she didn’t spend much time chatting with Gu Ning, and Gu Ning also told the saleswomen to leave Zi Beiying and Xu Qinyin alone so that they could serve other customers.
Gu Ning had come here yesterday, so the saleswomen were all aware that she was the boss and they listened to her.
…
Leng Shaojia’s major in the university was clothing design too, and she had founded a studio with her friends early on. All they needed was a noticeable shop now to sell their dresses. Therefore, Leng Shaojia and her business partners came to the mall that day to find a good shop to rent.
Although Leng Shaojia wasn’t easy-going, she was willing to devote herself to whatever she aimed to achieve. Coincidentally, they found Charm and were impressed by its gowns as well.
Leng Shaojia knew that Gu Ning owned many companies, but she didn’t know that Charm was one of them.
“Wow, Shaojia, look at this store! The gowns inside are so beautiful,” Leng Shaojia’s friend, Zhu Jinling, said with excitement.
“Don’t flatter others’ designs. I think our dresses are more beautiful,” Leng Shaojia said with a displeased expression.
Even though she had to admit that Charm gowns were very impressive, she couldn’t accept Zhu Jinling complimenting other people’s designs. Besides, they were about to start selling their own dresses, so Charm would be a strong competitor of theirs.
“Fine, peers are competitors. Why don’t we go inside and have a look to get more information about it so that we know how to defeat it?” Zhu Jinling said.
Zhu Jinling actually didn’t agree with Leng Shaojia, because Charm indeed was better than their brand. If they ran into Charm in a clothing design competition, she had no confidence that they could win.
Leng Shaojia then walked into the store with Zhu Jinling.
When they had a closer look at Charm gowns, Zhu Jinling had to say that Charm’s gowns were very delicate.
Nevertheless, when her sight fell on the price tags, Zhu Jinling wondered whether people would buy these gowns because the prices were very high. The quality of the gowns might deserve the prices, but this brand wasn’t famous enough.
Since she worked in the clothing industry as well, Zhu Jinling knew almost every famous high-end brand in the industry.
“How dare they price these gowns so high! Nobody will buy them,” Leng Shaojia said with disdain. She agreed with Zhu Jinling that Charm’s fame didn’t match the prices of its gowns.
At the same time, Leng Shaojia also got jealous of Charm because of the high level of its designs and workmanship.
