Chapter 119: Chapter 119: Let’s Go Buy Clothes!
“Don’t rush off just yet,” Bai Yaning said to Wang Hao, speaking with utmost seriousness, “there are two things I must tell you.”
Wang Hao nodded, “Yeah, go ahead!”
“First,” Bai Yaning’s tone became very solemn, “in the music industry of our Heavenly People’s Republic, you’re the first one in this decade whose debut song made seven hundred thousand.”
Damn! No way? Am I that awesome?! I’m even feeling a little embarrassed…
“Aww, it’s nothing, just luck, just luck, haha!” Wang Hao laughed twice, modestly in a token gesture, but his expression clearly told the superstar—keep the compliments coming!
“Well, you’re also the first to have such thick skin,” Bai Yaning chuckled again, “Second, tonight’s dinner might be quite formal, so I need to take you to buy some clothes first. The person I’m meeting for the blind date is somewhat of a big deal, and as my friend, you can’t embarrass me!”
“No embarrassment, definitely can’t embarrass you! Can’t show any weakness, right?” Wang Hao laughed while scratching his hair, “So shall we get going?”
“Of course!” Bai Yaning started the car, and the roaring engine drew curious glances from passersby, truly fitting for a sports car—it starts up fast!
The car raced along, heading straight for the biggest shopping plaza in Zhonghai City—Zhonghai Avenue!
Dammit, back here again…
“I was planning on getting you tailored clothes,” Bai Yaning said calmly, “but there’s no time, so we’ll have to just buy some off the rack, don’t mind it.”
Don’t mind it, absolutely don’t mind it! This is fine, even though I’m no longer a loser, I still can’t afford tailored clothes!
They entered the parking lot, got out of the car, took the elevator straight to the third floor for men’s clothing, and once out of the elevator doors, Wang Hao began wandering around with Bai Yaning.
It has to be said that Bai Yaning’s taste is indeed very good; whatever Wang Hao tried on made him look talented and handsome, and even she couldn’t help but laugh, “I didn’t realize your figure is actually quite good, you look nice in clothes.”
So what, the stuff I wore before doesn’t count as clothes?
“Just average,” Wang Hao said with a grin, “This set is pretty good, I think it’ll do.”
Then he checked the price tag—top for 1688, pants for 888, those are some pretty hefty prices!
But no worries! I now have three hundred thousand in my pocket, I’m loaded!
Buy! Definitely buying!
“This one it is,” Bai Yaning told the sales assistant, then said, “Wear it out, and pack up the ones he’s changing out of.” Wang Hao quickly went to the counter to swipe his card.
The sales assistant, a young lady, looked at Wang Hao with a change in her gaze—a woman’s intuition! This man must have something special about him!
So she subconsciously glanced down toward the area between his legs below his abdomen…
For crying out loud! I’m not some kept man, okay?
Silently weeping inside, I tell you, this money is honestly earned by me!
What can I say, women sometimes have such a keen eye! After examining the area between his legs, the sales assistant started looking upward and then… seemed pretty ordinary actually!
Wang Hao: “…”
Oh come on! Is it really okay for you to look that directly?!
“Is she your girlfriend? She’s really beautiful!” the sales assistant wondered, “She looks so much like the big star Ice Princess!”
Bai Yaning: “…”
What do you mean, looks like? She IS the Ice Princess!
After leaving the boutique, Bai Yaning pursed her lips and smiled, “Do you feel happy with the change of clothes?”
Do you even need to ask? Thrilled is the word and I’ll say it just once!
“Haha, let’s go, shall we continue?” Wang Hao chortled, “Having a big star help me shop for clothes, it’s like a dream come true!”
“You sure have a way with words,” Bai Yaning was clearly much more relaxed around Wang Hao. She handed him the already wrapped clothes, “Let’s go buy a pair of shoes. Actually, I didn’t want to buy something so expensive and pressure you, but as you know, those who have blind dates with me come from very good families. If you’re dressed poorly, it’s easy to be looked down upon.”
Such a great girl, taking care of our feelings like that!
“Understood,” Wang Hao nodded, “I can’t disgrace you, right? No big deal, I’ll try to perform a bit better at the time.”
“Thank you,” Bai Yaning glanced at Wang Hao, “I’m glad to be your friend.”
That line seems like something I should be saying, right?
While they were talking, they reached the men’s shoe store and chose a pair side by side. Soon they picked a nice looking pair, and Wang Hao decisively grabbed them to try on—no helping it, one must pay attention when trying on shoes. After all, a man’s got to have some… manliness.
After trying on the shoes, and pairing them with the outfit he had chosen earlier, Wang Hao asked, “How do I look? Okay?”
Now Wang Hao was all dressed in high-end clothes, looking indeed quite different from before. Bai Yaning nodded her approval, even jokingly teased, “Not bad, you look quite the part.”
This light and playful attitude all of a sudden made Wang Hao stare in amazement. Even with makeup on, she was a beauty!
“You’re really beautiful,” Wang Hao said with a grin, scratching his head, “I think you look much prettier than when I first met you!”
“Really?” Bai Yaning shrugged her shoulders, “Thanks for the compliment.”
Since the decision was made, it was time to pay.
After they left the shopping center building, Bai Yaning said, “Let’s go, next I’ll take you to get your hair done. Yeah, just up ahead not far, it’s a salon owned by my personal stylist. I’ll take you there to get a makeover.”
See that? Personal stylist! Even I have such high-class moments!
They drove straight there, and indeed it wasn’t far. It only took about five minutes to arrive—at %₩#…%₩…%₩ Studio! The entire name is in English! I don’t recognize a single word!
Definitely high-end! Grand! Classy!
They got out of the car and walked in. As soon as they entered the store, a woman in her thirties came up to greet them, “Oh, it’s the young miss. Planning on a makeover?” The moment she finished speaking, she suddenly hesitated as it seemed to dawn on her who she was talking to, and asked carefully, “Miss, this gentleman is…?”
She saw that this man had gotten out of the young miss’s car!
“Just a friend,” Bai Yaning said indifferently, “I brought him here for a makeover. Do you have time now?”
“Yes, of course!” The woman examined Wang Hao carefully from head to toe before leading them into an inner room, “Please come inside, it’s quieter.”
Once in the inner room, the woman had Bai Yaning sit on the side and led Wang Hao to get his hair washed while saying, “So, I hear from the miss that you’re a friend? That’s not easy, you know. I’ve known her for four or five years, and she’s never had any friends. It’s good that she finally has one.”
Well, of course, don’t you know who I am!
“Heh, it’s not too bad,” Wang Hao laughed, “We met by chance, heh.”
When they reached the hair washing station, the woman said, “Lie down here, let’s wash your hair first.” As Wang Hao got comfortable, she started to wash his hair and spoke, “Sigh, the young miss is perfect in every way; it’s just that her family is too strict. I’ve known her for over a decade and never seen her have any friends. You’re remarkable, what’s your name?”
“Wang Hao,” he introduced himself, then curiously asked, “Speaking of which, she mentioned this the other time we had dinner together, but I didn’t pay much attention at first, only to realize later. It’s normal for her not to have a boyfriend, but why doesn’t she have any girlfriends? That shouldn’t be the case!”
“You’ve actually had dinner with the young miss?!” The woman exclaimed, “My goodness, you must hold a high place in her heart!”
Being praised just for eating together?
Wang Hao casually boasted with a touch of swagger, “By coincidence, by coincidence,”
“That’s impressive, impressive!” The woman sighed, “It’s a good thing the young miss finally has a friend. Alas, she’s been hurt before. There were a few girls who approached her on their initiative. In the beginning, she didn’t think too much of it and everything seemed fine. But later, she realized these girls were getting close to her just to snoop for information, like what the young miss likes or dislikes, and everything would be leaked out at the first chance. After finding out, the young miss locked herself in her room for a whole day, and from then on, she trusted no one.”
Such a poor girl.
Wang Hao sighed along with her.
It’s truly sad when someone is only approached by others around them with ulterior motives.
“Alright, rise,” the woman said as she finished washing Wang Hao’s hair and helped him get up, then added, “You’re the only friend the young miss has, so please, no matter what, don’t hurt her.”
Is my character still in question? Wang Hao smiled brightly, “Don’t worry, I understand.”
What do you think?
