168. Transformation
"Mr. Shi, why are you free to come here today? - I'll call you Lancy."
"Please trouble you."
"Mr. Shi - are you here to pick up the belt? Actually, we can send it to you. This one is-"
"This is my friend, her surname is Hu."
"Hello Miss Hu."
"Hello."
"You sit here for a while."
"Oh, OK."
Hu Yue sat on the sofa obediently, watching Shi Ji try the belt under the service of two clerks, and then took out his mobile phone to check the average consumption of this brand. Unfortunately, luxury brands will not promote it widely, and there are very few related discussions. Hu Yue only knows that their bags are famous and difficult to buy. In addition, Mr. Luo is also a senior customer of this brand. When they passed by the store, she occasionally mentioned it. Now Hu Yue probably knows the reason - he also knows what Mr. Luo specifically mentioned it. Maybe if she talked about this matter with Shi Ji, there are always clues, and she can't hide her observation.
"Miss Hu, please come here."
After taking the belt, the clerk invited her to the women's clothing floor upstairs. Several sets of clothes were ready, and the inside and outside were matched into a set, "You might as well give it a try."
Hu Yue was actually prepared in her heart. It was not difficult to guess Shi Ji's intention. Since she came, she would not continue to be pretentious, and she would not want to perform for the clerk to show it. She bit her lip and did not have eye contact with Shi Ji. Shi Ji didn't look at her, and sat on the sofa and flipped through the magazines, as if all this had nothing to do with him.
This brand of bags is the most famous. When it comes to women's clothing, it is not as famous as c, d, and y. The main reason is that the styles are relatively mature. However, this is actually more in line with the needs of certain specific groups of people. The low-key styles and exquisite textured workmanship are at least heavier than Chanel's houndstooth suit. Hu Yue changed his clothes and came out. The clerk had already taken a pair of low-heeled shoes to replace her casual pedals. This gray button suit is paired with trousers, which made Hu Yue look a lot more energetic. Of course, it is not enough to compare with Shi Ji on the outside. However, perhaps the decoration texture of this store itself is here. When looking at the mirror, he also feels that his temperament has changed accordingly. Even if it is not a completely different person, it has a bit of elite flavor than before.
"How is it?" she asked the clerk, not asking Shi Ji.
The clerk said with a smile, "It's very good. Sometimes you have to attend some seminars. You need a professional and steady image. This outfit is just right. Sometimes, when you receive important guests, this outfit is also decent enough."
Shi Ji had already put down the magazine and looked at her from a distance. His expression was hidden in the hazy light and could not see clearly. After looking at it for a while, he whispered to Lancy beside him. Lancy walked over, "Ms. Hu, do you want to try makeup? The stylist will be here soon."
There are also stylists in this brand?
This was inconsistent with her superficial understanding. Hu Yue was a little surprised. Lancy added with a smile, "In fact, it is the service of the next door's friend, and we are actually managed by the same office."
If you say this, Shi Ji must have had a friendship with the senior executives in this office: probably also a relationship with the hospital.
It is said that services in metropolis are standardized. In fact, most of them are the cognition of the bottom class. If you really reach the corresponding class, you will naturally enjoy the corresponding treatment. Hu Yue really saw what the privilege of a great doctor is from Shi Ji. Therefore, the doctor's career is indeed hard, but some inconveniences are also invisible benefits brought by the profession. At least, if you can achieve the middle or even the top level, in the city where you work, your connections and strong energy will be surprising to the outsiders.
The stylist arrived soon and placed Hu Yue in front of the dressing table. Starting with the most basic skin care, contact lenses, eyebrows, eyeliners, and taught her to take care of herself one by one. The product line she used was naturally incomparable to the beauty supermarkets of different quality. This kind of quick and simple makeup is also suitable for Hu Yue to learn. The makeup artist seemed to have given instructions before, and did not teach her too in-depth and complex advanced skills. She had a lot of discussions with Hu Yue, and also had a clerk's staff. The environment was good and the atmosphere was good. Before she knew it, she was half a day.
After a while, the makeup was ready. Hu Yue stood up and looked at herself: she had not been transformed and became a big beauty, but indeed, after wearing makeup, her image was different. Her eyebrows were clearer after being trimmed, her lines were clearer, and her eyes were decorated with contact lenses, making her look shining. If she had a bit of a hairy feeling before, and her clothes and makeup could only be considered appropriate in her class, then now she has the exquisiteness that matches her class, which is indeed a change brought about by the details of her clothes and makeup.
Now that I am, even standing next to Mrs. Song... I won’t be at a disadvantage, right?
Turning around, Lancy presented a bag at the right time, "Our house is the most famous bag."
She smiled and said, "Overyone customers have to book. There are several types of goods that are rare in stock and they have to be distributed to get them. However, Mr. Shi is of course an exception. Other customers are all living utensils that are used to buy bags. Mr. Shi has consumed all living utensils in our house over the years, but women's bags have never been consumed."
It seems that this bag is not all reserved, and you can only buy it with goods. There are only the most famous ones, which are as difficult as bamboo shoots. Hu Yue has been working on the 19th floor for several years and must have known this basic knowledge. A few years ago, Li Sheng seemed to give her a non-order bag, which she gave to Miss Yu. She took it over and took a look: Elephant gray, the leather is not visible, and it really feels like an elite woman when she holds it in her hand. With such a bag, it seems that she is a little satisfied with her body, and her body is straighter than before.
She instinctively looked at Shi Ji. Shi Ji was still focused on the magazine, as if she was not interested in what happened in this corner. Lancy smiled and said, "Ms. Hu, do you want to pick up other coats? Other families can do it, our colleagues will bring it to you."
I don’t know if she has a sharp eye or has received some instructions, but she is stronger than ordinary shopping guides, giving more guidance, and teaching Hu Yue the default matching rules without hesitation. "Symposiums usually wear complete sets of clothes. If you receive customers, shirts and trousers, and short heels like ours are very suitable. Our shoes will be adjusted according to your foot shape. There will be no big problems with standing for a long time - and in fact, it is based on durability. After all, our family is born with a horse harness and must be more durable."
"Everyone has a style to deal with different occasions. Although you have a baby face, you still need to emphasize mature and independent elite feminine temperament in your professional life. If you usually go out for afternoon tea and drink with friends, [Rhyme] There are a few new products in this season that are suitable for you..."
She brought back new products from other stores. Lancy spoke softly and had a lot of discussion with Hu Yue. "What do you think of this sweater? I feel it is very suitable for your body shape. You can relax when you go out for fun. Sweaters, jeans, and this daily bag in our house - not as recognizable as Kangkang, but it is also very classic. If Kangkang is, it is really difficult to book. The store manager has tried his best to coordinate and ensure that if there is a product in China, it is the first to deliver it."
Hu Yue couldn't help but say, "Your reaction is so fast."
The eyes of the two women met in the mirror, Lancy smiled slightly - a senior salesperson like her, who is in a good manner and does not want to leak things, and does not say a word for customers. Then he lowered his voice and said softly, "It's not that we react quickly, but that our service is thoughtful enough."
Either they respond quickly, or they have already said hello in advance. Have they prepared these... in a few days? Or have they already prepared, just waiting for a suitable opportunity and a word - was there a foreshadowing in it when Shi Ji asked Mr. Luo to take her shopping? However, she did not react as he had the same budget as he did, so that he could not bring her naturally?
For people like her, analysis and association are almost an instinctive reaction, and this possibility made Hu Yue pursed her lips quickly, which was a warning to herself: such small methods are a small task for powerful men. Only girls who have nothing will be easily moved. Even if others just put a little care, she began to move herself.
On the 19th floor, there are too many such examples. Miss Yu is a very typical case. Of course, she also contains a little self-hypnosis. Hu Yue knows that she is not a girl who is easily impressed by substance - or in other words, she is not a person who is easily impressed, just...
It is easy to be moved, maybe it is better to distinguish people. Some things do not mean that you will deliberately go to the disadvantages, and it will become like that. Why is Shi Ji's arrangement not clear whether it is a small task?
She pursed her lips again and whispered to herself, "Did you only choose formal clothes? Ordinary clothes..."
In fact, there are also preparations for regular clothes, such as sweaters and jeans. Isn’t this the usual clothes? What I want to ask but didn’t ask is... a more feminine outfit, you can’t wear suits and trousers to watch movies. Every girl should also have some soft outfits in her closet, which are specially prepared for special occasions.
Lancy understands it, and she said, "Why don't I help you go to the next door to ask?"
He really knows how to speak. Speaking like this means he is not particularly prepared. Hu Yue can't tell what he feels like. He was disappointed and relaxed. She shook her head, "Forget it, I have bought enough today."
There are many, first, how can I be a decent professional woman? How can I invest less? The clothes and shoes at the h family are not as expensive as bags, but thousands or tens of thousands are also common prices. I buy them from head to toe and have several sets of items from friends. Several store managers came over with Pos machines and asked Shi Ji to take turns to pull up. Hu Yue peeked at the order and pulled out hundreds of thousands of dollars at random - that bag was really expensive.
Lancy knows how to be a human being. She went downstairs to buy all the cosmetics she had just mentioned one by one, remembering the color number, and helped them put the things into the back box of the car. She smiled and said goodbye to Shi Ji, not mentioning the cost of purchasing cosmetics on behalf of others. Hu Yue thought that Shi Ji might have returned to WeChat and transferred them to her by no means much. She could see through these things, which was almost the instinct of survival in the workplace.
But there are still many things that I can’t see through. After buying so many, I don’t feel satisfied after shopping. Instead, I feel a little disappointed when I walk out of the store. Hu Yue didn’t speak all the way, but Shi Ji broke the silence, “What are you thinking?”
He probably couldn't figure out what she was thinking now - he might not be angry anymore, but he was a little embarrassed. He thought that he could not bow his head because of this little material, which was too disheartening, so he was still silent. The noble girl always did this, so she had to pay for her money and serve her with a smile, but Hu Yue would not be so pretentious. She said, "I was thinking that those things felt worth the price when they were in the store. Once they came out, they felt like some curse had been broken, and it felt different."
"I just feel like I'm losing money in my purchase?" Shi Ji didn't laugh at her--well, of course he wouldn't laugh at her now.
They had such a peaceful conversation. Hu Yue said, "Yes, I feel that the goods themselves are not worth the price... Just like the surgery we did, it felt very important when we did it, but after doing it, I felt..."
"Of course things are not worth it," Shi Ji ignored the words she commented on the surgery. "The cost-effectiveness curve, in fact, those cotton products are no different from those high-quality goods."
"But you still have to buy it at their house?" Hu Yue asked, saying that he was asking, but in fact he probably guessed the answer. "You can't use famous brands for everything, right?"
"Well," Shi Ji admitted as expected, "I'm used to it, and basically buy everything from their house - otherwise, do you think any customer can be served like this?"
Hu Yue was speechless: I know it was not cost-effective, but I still bought it like this. "Is it to improve the class?"
"No--why do you say, if you don't spend this way, what's the point of money?" Shi Ji pointed out practically.
If I don’t spend money like this, what’s the point of earning so much? This... is indeed a difficult question to answer. Hu Yue was speechless. Shi Ji looked at her from the back mirror and slowed down his tone, "You have just been promoted, and you will understand from now on."
Hu Yue smiled. She didn't want to criticize anything, "I just think... absurd. This industry makes you see the essence of life too much. The ultimate human nature is actually quite ridiculous, but... sometimes, life is so absurd."
"Yes, sometimes, the world is like this." Shi Ji said. Now he doesn't look at her anymore, but looks at the congested traffic ahead. "A lot of things will happen - Miss Zhu's nose will be knocked wrongly, because the world is like this, I will also perform repair surgery on her to restore her to the point where she cannot see it, because the world is like this."
If there is destruction, there will be repairs. If there is construction, there will be human efforts to spend on wounds, because the ugly human nature is, the better it is. The world is like this.
This sentence is said in a plain and simple manner, but the feeling of comfort is absolutely not to be argued wrongly, and - this is really not like what Shi Ji can say. Isn’t it more like Hu Yue’s argument?
So, how can one really see someone clearly without ten years? She has become accustomed to Shi Ji's blow, contempt and sarcasm, and can be ignored. It has only exploded this time in two years. But now, Hu Yue is really surprised, staring in surprise, turning her head to look at Shi Ji, without any cover of her surprise. "——Ah?"
Shi Ji did not express his emotions very clearly. She had no way to speculate whether he had such a change due to her influence, or whether this view was the real person he was, but he was always under the mask and was not easily shown to others. He naturally jumped on the topic, "Actually, I'm quite curious."
"What are you curious about?"
"It's a cost tonight." Shi Ji said, he tilted his head, and the light casts neon lights on his beautiful face, making his eyes look like a hint of beauty, although it seemed to be just an illusion in the glimpse of light, "I have been waiting for the words, 'How much did I spend tonight? I'll give you when I go back' - but you haven't said it."
This sentence sounds like asking for money naked. If it is another conversation, it is likely that it will turn aside. After all, when talking about money, it seems that there is no affection left behind. Either questioning Hu Yue's financial strength or questioning her love for small gains, but when it is between them, it is not aggressive at all. Instead, it seems meaningful and meaningless.
With Hu Yue's character, what kind of relationship does she have that would she accept this gift so calmly? Spend Shi Ji's money calmly?
They already know each other enough that they will not have misunderstandings or misinterpretations. Hu Yue's face suddenly turned red. She didn't know why Shi Ji - why he insisted on exposing it at this time.
But he did this. In such a place, the two of them were close together, and the distance was only as much as the central control island. The distance was so close that his breathing and the smell of cologne were close to each other. The presence was so strong that they could not be ignored. However, they were wrapped in the seats and secrets, as far away as if they were out of reach. I thought everything would continue like this and drive to the end of the road. But Hu Yue did not expect that Shi Ji would suddenly break everything simply and implicitly, just like the precise and sharpness he cut every time he held a knife.
"You know what this means?"
He commented on her silence, "You understand, what does this mean?"
