The bill for this meal was undoubtedly picked up by Lin Hong and the others.

"Miss Gu, you can start working at the head office tomorrow. Just mention my name," Miao Shiyun said warmly, holding Gu Yanxi's hand as they walked out of the restaurant.

"Chairman Miao, thank you for giving me this opportunity. I will definitely work hard!" Gu Yanxi was moved to tears. She had studied marketing at Hua Dan University, so it was perfect that Miao Shiyun wanted her to head the marketing department.

The most important thing was trust. Gu Yanxi didn't have a diploma, yet Miao Shiyun was willing to believe in her. She vowed to dedicate herself to Meilong Group in the future.

Beep—

Suddenly, Miao Shiyun's phone rang.

Seeing the number, Miao Shiyun's expression changed. She took the phone to a corner and answered it.

Shortly after, Miao Shiyun returned, "Luo Chao, I have something urgent to deal with. You don't need to see me off."

Then she looked at Gu Yanxi, "Do me a favor and take Miss Gu to buy a few outfits. She is now the head of our marketing department at Meilong Group. The head should dress in a manner that befits the position."

Luo Chao nodded. What Miao Shiyun said made sense.

Gu Yanxi was very poor. Although she was beautiful, she didn't have extra money to spend on dressing up. Her clothes were mostly the simplest street stall goods.

As a head of the marketing department of a major company in the future, it's important for her to dress properly and leave a good impression on clients.

"You can find me for reimbursement for the clothes. I'll be off now." With that, Miao Shiyun hurriedly left in a taxi.

Although Luo Chao was a bit concerned about Miao Shiyun's unusual behavior, it was ultimately someone else's private matter, and he didn't want to pry.

So, Luo Chao and Gu Yanxi headed to a nearby shopping mall.

The two entered a high-end luxury clothing store, and because Luo Chao was well-dressed, all the sales assistants flocked to him, treating him as a potential big customer.

However, Luo Chao ignored them because he was there to accompany Gu Yanxi to buy clothes, not for himself.

He found a sofa in the store, sat down, and waited for Gu Yanxi to choose her clothes so he could pay for her.

In contrast, Gu Yanxi, dressed plainly, was ignored by the sales assistants as soon as she entered the store and had to choose clothes by herself.

Nevertheless, Gu Yanxi used to be a clothing sales assistant herself, so she was very meticulous when selecting clothes alone.

She would often examine a piece of clothing repeatedly, but once she took a liking to it, the expensive price would scare her off, preventing her from buying it and making her put it back.

Gu Yanxi's long-standing frugal mindset was hard to change overnight, and even if it wasn't her money, she thought about saving wherever possible.

She realized how different it felt to sell clothes to others compared to buying clothes for herself.

"Hey, hey, hey! Haven't you touched enough already? Rifling through clothes without buying—can you afford to pay if you damage them?" Soon, an older female sales assistant couldn't stand Gu Yanxi's window-shopping behavior and stopped her.

In ordinary clothing stores, there are many people who look without buying, but those who enter such luxury brand stores are mostly wealthy and tend to buy quickly after looking.

But based on Gu Yanxi's demeanor and attire, the older woman judged she wasn't rich, so she dared to stop her.

"I'm... I'm sorry." Gu Yanxi was so startled by the old woman's words that her hands shook, and she pulled them back, not daring to touch the clothes again.

However, this scene was witnessed by Luo Chao, who was waiting on the side.

Luo Chao stood up and took a few steps to Gu Yanxi's side.

He looked at the old woman sales assistant, "Why can't the clothes be touched? How can you tell if the fabric is good or the fit is comfortable just by looking?"

Seeing Luo Chao stand up for Gu Yanxi, the old woman, relying on her years of experience in reading people, guessed that Luo Chao and Gu Yanxi were probably a couple.

Otherwise, there was no reason for the man to be dressed so well while the woman wore street stall goods. The man must be trying to please the woman by bringing her here to shop for clothes.

Thinking of this, the old woman deliberately rolled her eyes, "Hmph! You aren't buying, yet you have high demands. I've worked in this store for nearly ten years, and I've seen all kinds of people. Would anyone who genuinely wants to buy clothes behave like you two?"

"Oh? How do you know we're not buying? I'll buy and show you today!" Luo Chao said loudly, unwilling to back down.

"No... Luo Chao, let's go check out other stores." Gu Yanxi, having been a sales assistant herself, clearly saw that this was actually the old woman's provocation technique.

Seeing Luo Chao seemingly ready to buy on impulse, Gu Yanxi figured he had fallen for the old woman's provocation technique and quickly grabbed Luo Chao's arm, trying to pull him away.

"Heh heh." The old woman was delighted to see Luo Chao's reaction.

Gu Yanxi guessed correctly; it was indeed the old woman's provocation technique.

The older woman had long noticed Luo Chao's fine attire, assuming he had money. However, he sat idly on the sofa, showing no intention of buying clothes.

So she seized the opportunity to use a provocation tactic, hoping to sell a few more pieces of clothing.

Getting scolded? Who cares as long as I earn the commission!

The old woman successfully used this provocation to make several wealthy men, who brought their lovers to buy clothes, fall for it.

Thus, she deliberately provoked, "Hmph, talk is cheap. If you have what it takes, go ahead and buy them. Buy all the clothes I'm responsible for, and slap my face with it!"

"Which designs are you responsible for? Point them out to me!" Luo Chao shook off Gu Yanxi's hand and angrily told the old woman.

"Hmph, point them out I will. I'm just afraid you can't afford them!" The old woman sneered but was secretly delighted, thinking he was an impulsive nouveau riche. In a few words, she got him to buy all the styles she was responsible for. Today was a huge success for her!

"This one, that one, and these two..." Very soon, the old woman picked out the styles she was responsible for and placed them in front of Luo Chao.

Luo Chao glanced at them and then took out a bank card from his pocket, saying, "Call your store manager over, I want to pay with a card."

"Okay, okay!" The old woman was thrilled when she heard Luo Chao wanted the manager.

Because there was a regulation posted at the store entrance that any single transaction over 200,000 Huaxia Coins required the store manager to process it.

The old woman calculated that the dozen or so pieces she had picked out totaled just a bit over 200,000.

Now that Luo Chao asked for the manager, it meant he intended to buy all the styles she was responsible for!

It wasn't long before the store manager, contacted by the old woman, arrived. The old woman wore an expectant expression because as soon as she sold all the styles she was in charge of at once, she would receive a very generous commission.

"Sir, which styles of clothing would you like to buy?" The manager, hearing Luo Chao was a big customer, respectfully asked.

Luo Chao pointed to the dozen or so styles the old woman had picked out and said deliberately, "Except for these styles, for every other style in your store, bring me one piece each!"
