Chapter 113: H – the Clickbait Material
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The other girls at that secretary’s office had their eyes wide open like a full moon. The conversation was peculiar and dangerous. Lu was the cold, rigid chief secretary who also turned out to be the president’s sister and Lin was talking to her so casually, on her first day of work?
That’s bold, very bold.
“Don’t be silly! The fashion store, of course! Need new things to wear for the upcoming season you know. You should sometimes appreciate other fashion styles, I mean, these office threads of yours might look marvelous but we are women and women are the most colorful, wonderful beings. You’ll feel entirely different as a person once you got yourself changed! Let’s go! Let’s go!” Said Lin as she pulled Lu’s sleeves, while taking a glimpse at her body, “Hmm, we have a gorgeous model right here, it’ll be a fashion prime night tonight!”
Lu was hesitant because she had just returned from a major drama that would crush her company. She could not just ditch Huo and go shopping with the company’s newbie? Could she?
Will Huo be okay?
That was when Huo dashed by the office in his pride. He was going home.
Seems okay to me.
Thought Lu with a sigh of relief, “Let’s go then.”
Lin wrapped over her arms and headed to the corridor, “Oh my fellow sisters, Ms. Lu and I are leaving now, I’m sorry but we can go some other time!”
They arrived joyfully by Festive Square and they went straight into a branded apparel store. Under the chilly lighting and the casual background music, the new girl picked a clothing randomly from the hanger and placed it before Lu. “No, no, no. You’re on a shopping spree, not me.”
“Well, you can be my mirror too! I had promised you to give you a fashion prime night! I must at least get you one fine piece!”
Lin took a piece of broad black hoodie before her and she nodded approvingly.
“Trust my fashion sense. This is meant to be yours. Go try it, with no skirt.”
Lu wanted to kindly reject her offer but the fashion designer was simply determined on her fashion ideology that she eventually cooperated and got herself changed.
“Oh my Lu,” muttered Lin as she gazed upon that long fair legs revealed underneath the hoodie, “You have such beautiful, long legs. Such proportion!”
It was a rather embarrassing apparel, Lu looked at herself in the mirror, her face reddened as she quickly turned away, “I’m taking it down.”
“Don’t! It’s both casual and fashionable, it’s also quite refreshing. It fits you!”
Lin pushed her back to the mirror. That was when Lu noticed the letter sewed on the hoodie.
H.
Huo?
The letter reminded her of her devilish husband.
For pete’s sake, NO!
“I’m sorry, Lin. But this is simply not my style. I’ll pass. You go pick yourself some threads, I’ll be your mirror here.” Lu escaped Lin’s grip and scurried to the fitting room to change.
“Aw...” Lin did not want to force her new buddy so she let her go. Lin eventually picked a pair of pants. “Let’s go somewhere else!” She said, after sliding the credit card to the cashier. She grabbed the bag and stormed out of the shop with Lu.
Stopped by a few stores later, Lu found out that Lin was quite a heavy spender. Most of the brands she visited were the exquisite ones which would easily cost an arm and a leg for a piece. No fresh graduate from college could have afforded all these. Lu was pretty sure that Lin was born with a silver spoon, or at the very least... a brass spoon.
An hour later, the shopping girl crowned herself as shopping queen with the 10 large shopping bags in her hands.
They had a quick bite at the mall and spent the next two hours on more purchases. The fashion designer did not give up on her outstanding model. She kept shoving her model a few pieces to change and at last, Lu was convinced to purchase a piece.
“Thanks for tonight!” Lin smiled as she tapped Lu’s back, “Remember to wear this to the office tomorrow! You MUST!”
Oh gosh... my broken legs might not even fit my heels, let alone a new piece...
It was a long way home even without Lin’s bickering fashion recommendations. When she arrived by that familiar villa, she dragged herself to the bed and collapsed.
Wait, something seems off.
Where’s Huo?
The room was quiet when she drowsily waited on her bed.
She fell asleep.
And then she felt a sudden pressure exerted on her back when midnight came.
She could not breathe.
