Chapter 65: Chapter 65: How about 500,000?
"Husband?" Bai Bing was speechless, secretly cursing, "Shameless!"
Next to her, Lin Xi was also fastening his seatbelt.
"Here you go."
Seeing the bank card in Bai Bing’s hand, Lin Xi took it and asked curiously, "Why are you giving me a card?"
"It’s your salary, the password is six eights," Bai Bing replied.
"Salary? For pretending to be your boyfriend?" Lin Xi couldn’t help but laugh, as there was nothing else it could be.
"Yes, thirty thousand a month. If you perform well, there will be bonuses; if you don’t, deductions will be made directly from the card." Bai Bing’s face appeared expressionless, resuming her high-cold CEO demeanor.
"Don’t worry, I promise to perform well," Lin Xi put away the card, secretly thinking, "Pretending long enough, and it’ll become real. You are mine anyway."
If Bai Bing knew what Lin Xi was thinking, she might wonder if she had let a wolf into her house.
Bai Bing’s driving skills were quite excellent, nothing like the legendary female driver. In about half an hour, the two arrived near the most bustling pedestrian street in Chuzhou City.
After finding a parking spot, Bai Bing led Lin Xi into the pedestrian street.
Bai Bing had a strong sense of purpose; unlike typical girls who wander aimlessly, she headed straight for a clothing store, choosing a luxurious brand: Armani.
As soon as they entered the store, a round-faced, sweet-looking female salesperson eagerly approached.
"Miss, we recently got a batch of new arrivals, want to take a look?" the salesperson said to Bai Bing, while Lin Xi, standing beside her, was entirely ignored.
Can’t blame her; Bai Bing looked extraordinarily refined at first glance, carrying a classic black Chanel bag, which the salesperson estimated to be worth no less than a hundred thousand.
Other service staff not far away regretted missing out on this huge sale.
They knew they would earn commissions for each item sold.
Judging by Bai Bing’s attire and temperament, what she was going to buy was definitely expensive.
As for Lin Xi, dressed in street market clothes, even a bit worn out, could he possibly be expected to spend in the store?
So, the situation now was that Bai Bing was warmly welcomed, while Lin Xi was coldly ignored, as no one would associate the two together.
Xiaozhu was a new intern, with an average figure and ordinary looks. Having just graduated from college this year, this was her first job.
As a newcomer in this profession, she dared not compete with the seniors to avoid exclusion. She could only serve after they had chosen.
Having interned at Armani for a week, she had only managed to sell two of the lowest-priced off-size T-shirts, earning a small commission.
This left her feeling discouraged and worried about passing her internship.
Now, Lin Xi was left for her by the seniors; she had to serve him.
After all, anyone who enters is a customer, and ostensibly, there’s no division of high or low.
"Hello, what price range are you looking for? We have from one thousand to two thousand, from two thousand to five thousand..." Xiaozhu was also from the countryside, understanding that life wasn’t easy for anyone, and showed no disdain towards Lin Xi, but reminded him kindly using price ranges since Armani’s starting price was over a thousand.
"I don’t know." Lin Xi was confused. Today Bai Bing had taken him out to buy clothes; he had no idea what he needed.
Lin Xi thought the several sets he brought from the mountains were completely unnecessary to replace.
This left Xiaozhu puzzled; she had explained so clearly but only received an "I don’t know" in response.
Does he really want to buy? But dressed like this, can he afford it?
"Then tell me a price, and I’ll recommend a few items." Xiaozhu gave another kind reminder, hoping it would be understood this time.
Lin Xi smiled silently, then looked at Bai Bing, signaling her to make the decision.
This look made all the service staff’s hearts race.
Could it be that they know each other?
If that’s the case, wouldn’t it mean...?
Having not paid much attention to the sweet service girl, Bai Bing, upon feeling Lin Xi’s gaze, told Xiaozhu, "Bring over all your newest summer styles, let him try them on one by one."
Xiaozhu was momentarily stunned, standing frozen on the spot.
"What are you standing there for? Go and get them," Lin Xi kindly reminded, appreciating Xiaozhu’s good intentions.
Xiaozhu finally came to her senses, feeling as if she’d gone from the bottom of the valley to the clouds, a joy falling from the sky.
The sweet service girl beside was dumbfounded, never expecting this poor guy to be the main character. The distant crowd of seniors regretted missing such a great opportunity.
Judging from Bai Bing’s tone, it was unmistakably a huge sale.
They couldn’t help but curse Lin Xi in their hearts; if he dressed even slightly better, they wouldn’t have missed the opportunity to a newcomer.
Before long, Xiaozhu, following Lin Xi’s physique, joyfully brought over a pile of clothes.
Under Bai Bing’s watchful eye, Lin Xi reluctantly picked up a set, followed Xiaozhu’s guidance, and walked into a fitting room.
When the fitting room door opened, Lin Xi emerged wearing black cropped pants and a white T-shirt.
Just changing into this simple outfit transformed his entire aura.
"Wow, so handsome!" Xiaozhu, standing closest to Lin Xi, couldn’t help but exclaim.
The other service staff were equally astonished, quietly sighing at how clothes indeed make the man. The difference was night and day.
If the Lin Xi who entered initially looked like a sloppy, shabby rural laborer, then the current Lin Xi had an extremely proportionate physique, with not an ounce of excess fat, embodying a completely handsome and dashing young man.
More crucially, his image and aura had changed dramatically, making him almost unrecognizable, especially with Lin Xi’s consistent nonchalant demeanor, enhancing his extraordinary quality.
If Lin Xi stood beside Bai Bing dressed like this, it wouldn’t lead to so many misunderstandings.
Bai Bing was equally taken aback; she initially planned to buy Lin Xi a few good sets of clothes so that he wouldn’t be an embarrassment when taken out.
Unexpectedly, after changing into a set, she felt a bit worried about attracting other girls.
"What on earth am I thinking!" Bai Bing mused. He was only her fake boyfriend; getting attention from other girls was none of her business anyway.
Why did she suddenly feel a sense of regret?
Has she started liking him?
"Change again!" Bai Bing restrained her thoughts, maintained a cold expression.
Helplessly, Lin Xi went through outfit after outfit, but regardless of style or color, each seemed tailor-made for him.
"Pack all the clothes, get a total," Bai Bing told Xiaozhu.
"Pack them all?" Xiaozhu was stunned.
Lin Xi just tried on a whopping eight sets, all latest arrivals, meaning they were the most expensive and not discountable.
She roughly estimated the cost, at least over a hundred thousand. Her commission would be thousands, even nearly ten thousand, so she couldn’t help but be thrilled.
Don’t underestimate nearly ten thousand; even the top seniors in the store wouldn’t earn much more than that.
"Miss, come over here, let me give you the total," a middle-aged woman in formal attire approached, appearing to be the store manager.
Xiaozhu quickly reacted, hastening to fold and pack the clothes Lin Xi tried on.
"Hey handsome, fifty thousand a month for you!"
Suddenly a voice sounded behind Lin Xi. A plump woman, about two hundred pounds and standing a mere five feet three, approached, batting her eyes at Lin Xi.
