C17 Not Everyone Can Try on Such Expensive Clothes

Since that day, I hadn't seen Ji Qingxuan for nearly a month.

As my life started to calm back down, I tried distracting myself with my work to forget about my recent marriage.

Since today is my payday, Jiang Qin asked me to buy her dinner in the evening.

In order not to keep her waiting, I did not work overtime.

Finally, when I walked out of the office, a man in a suit walked over and said politely, "Hello, Miss Qin. I'm CEO Ji's driver. He told me to come and pick you up."

After work everyone looked at me strangely.

I was confused. "CEO Ji? Ji Qingxuan?

Why would he pick me up?

The driver explained, "The chairman, CEO Ji's grandfather, wants to see you."

Remembering the phone call a month ago, my heart felt conflicted by this sudden matter, afraid that Ji Qingxuan would insult me in front of his grandfather.

But I have to go.

Without a choice, I simply followed him to the car.

After driving me to Star Department Store, the driver handed me a silver card and asked me to go in to buy a suitable outfit.

Though I hesitated, Star Department Store is nevertheless the best department store in the entire Yangcheng since items from any brands, including foreign ones, could be found there.

As such, I'm sure that I can't afford the clothes inside.

People who shopped here were usually socialites or the wealthy.

Wearing a battered suit, all the staff took a quick glance at me and ignored me the moment I entered.

I didn't mind them. After all, I really can't afford anything here.

After walking around the mall, I finally stopped in front of a store in the corner. The reason is that I have never heard of such a brand before.

Thus, I thought the clothes in this shop would be cheap.

Walking around the store, I noticed the cream-colored dress the model was wearing and fell in love at first sight. Though its design was simple, it emitted a grand, majestic feeling.

To more I looked at the dress, the more captivated I became. Unable to hold inside my desire any longer, I decided to give it a try.

To my surprise, the clerk in the store acted very polite and paid close attention to my actions. Noticing my desire to try on the dress, he asked me for my size and invited me to the dressing room. Thus, I could only praise the service provided by the staff in this particular store.

After changing into the dress, I stood in front of the mirror and gauged myself.

If I say so myself, this dress really does suit me just as I thought it would.

With that, I decided on this dress and asked the shop assistant, "How much does this dress cost?"

The clerk replied respectfully, "Two hundred and ten thousand yuan."

The number caught me by surprise.

Two hundred and ten thousand...

I initially thought that the dress would be in the price range of the tens of thousands, so my original plans have just been shattered. If I do buy the dress, I afraid that Ji Qingxuan would think that I'm some sort of leech after seeing the cost of the dress.

Just as I was about to go back in to change, I noticed Qin Jiameng in the reflection of a mirror.

With two bags in her hands, the clerk greeted her warmly as soon as he saw her.

After greeting her, the cleark turned around to me and said, "You look very similar to this customer."

Qin Jiameng looked at my dress and then pretended to be kind as she reminded the shop assistant, "Your clothes are too expensive. How can you let someone like her try it on? What if she dirties the clothes and can't even afford to pay?"

The clerk looked at me with an embarrassed expression.

In my moment of helplessness, I could only say, "I'll buy it."

A hint of surprise flashed across Qin Jiameng's eyes when she heard my statement, but she remained silent.

I took the silver card out of my bag and handed it to the clerk. Then, I went in and changed.

The moment I walke out of the dressing room, Qin Jiameng stood beside me and sneered, "I didn't think you would really have the money to buy this dress."

As I handed the clothes to the shop assistant, I told Qin Jiameng, "Well, of course, I'm going to see Grandpa Ji today, so my husband asked me to buy some clothes."

I let out a wry smile.
