Chapter 985: Chapter 995: Bad Luck Today (Part 2)
Of course, Dili Bare had no hostility toward Luo Susu and Jones.
It was only Lin Xi she had an issue with!
In the next moment, she stood up and started greeting Luo Susu and Jones, completely treating Lin Xi as if he were invisible.
Actually, Luo Susu also liked Dili Bare.
After all, Dili Bare had a great reputation, and when Susu met her last time, she found her to be even better than what people said.
The goodness can be seen in her character.
For instance, she’s straightforward, unpretentious, kind-hearted, and so on.
Many others in the hall also noticed Lin Xi and the three women, and were curious about his relationship with them.
In fact, they were curious about Lin Xi’s identity.
Because other than knowing Lin Xi’s name, and that this young man was quite impressive, they knew nothing else about him.
Seeing the three women happily chatting together, Lin Xi naturally walked towards his room.
After changing clothes, he came out and sat at the side, watching everyone engaged in their conversations, busy with their own things.
Meanwhile, he had nothing to do.
Even Luo Susu and Jones, who had just arrived, seemed to be old friends with Dili Bare, chatting happily.
Finding himself bored, he didn’t sit there wasting time, but instead quietly left the room alone, without saying goodbye, planning to go for a walk.
After all, he had nothing to do.
Who knows, he might even have a chance encounter with someone interesting!
He was quite confident in this.
Given that he had a good physique and was handsome, plus after breaking through to Innate, he unknowingly exuded a friendly aura.
Of course, this wasn’t something others could specifically perceive.
However, from the suite to the hotel lobby, even standing in the lobby for a while, he didn’t encounter anyone approaching him for a chat.
Nor did he find anyone who caught his eye so much that he had to make the first move.
"It seems that good luck doesn’t come all the time!" he sighed to himself.
Just as he was about to walk out of the lobby, with his sharp eyes, he caught sight of a newspaper on the other side with a bizarre murder news.
The deceased was reported to be the son of a gangster leader.
Moreover, this leader was quite famous in London.
However, just yesterday, this leader went into hiding, seemingly vanished without a trace.
Even when his son was killed, he didn’t make any sound about it.
Wandering aimlessly on the streets for a while, he found a quite pretty white girl working as a clerk in a high-end clothing store, looking around twenty years old.
Her figure was much smaller than Jones and that curly-haired woman Lin Xi knew before.
But she was about 1.7 meters tall, not overly busty, but also not thin, just right.
Especially her eyes, which were quite captivating.
If he had to rate her, she’d be over seven points, similar to the level of Jones.
He stepped forward and asked her, "Hi, can you help me pick out some clothes and pants?"
This petite white girl nodded without any hesitation.
After all, it was her job.
While choosing, Lin Xi praised her, "Has anyone ever told you, you look a lot like the celebrity Avril!"
"I seriously suspect you’re her sister!"
The famous celebrity Avril is known to everyone, and she’s beautiful, no less renowned than those popular young stars.
Any girl would love such compliments from Lin Xi.
This petite girl was no exception.
Of course, petite only compared to European and American standards.
For people from southern Huaxia, she still looked quite tall.
"Thank you!" she smiled, "I wish I were, but unfortunately, I’m not!"
"But still, thank you for the compliment, it makes me very happy!"
Lin Xi tried on a set of clothes and continued, "Actually, I think you’re prettier than her!"
"Especially that moment when you blushed!"
The beautiful clerk, "... ..."
At this point, Lin Xi thought it was time to ask some substantive questions, "Do you have a boyfriend?"
If she had a boyfriend, or if she were married, he certainly wouldn’t flirt with her. Morally speaking, he didn’t want to break up someone else’s relationship.
Of course, if she didn’t, he’d up his game.
The beautiful clerk glanced at Lin Xi, now suspecting if he was hitting on her. But she still replied, "No!"
"How about grabbing a drink later?"
"I still have to work!"
"I can buy a few more sets of clothes and pants!"
"Buying more won’t help, the manager is really strict!"
"Manager issues?"
"Yes!"
The next moment, Lin Xi walked over to the clothing store’s counter, where a woman about the age of an aunt with a name badge showing she was the manager.
"I want to take her out for something later!" Lin Xi pointed to the beautiful clerk and told the manager in front of him, "Is it possible?"
The manager firmly shook her head, "During working hours, unless there’s a special reason, she can’t leave!"
"Otherwise, she’ll be fired!"
"Really?" A sly smile appeared on Lin Xi’s face.
The manager didn’t have much affection for Lin Xi’s demeanor and replied, "Of course it’s true!"
"Well then, I won’t buy the clothes I picked, I’ll go to another store!"
As soon as Lin Xi finished speaking, he pretended to walk towards the store’s exit.
At this moment, the manager stood up, glanced at the beautiful clerk and immediately shouted to Lin Xi, "Of course she can go out, she can for the whole day today!"
"I was just joking earlier!"
Only then did Lin Xi stop, turned around and said, "I think you’re quite a nice person, Manager!"
The manager smiled apologetically, "We always wholeheartedly serve our customers!"
Lin Xi chuckled, didn’t say more, and instead bought all the clothes he had tried.
At checkout, he paid a total of 30,000 British Pounds!
No wonder the manager agreed without hesitation after seeing those clothes.
After all, she could earn a commission of at least two to three thousand pounds from these sales.
Therefore, she certainly wouldn’t stick to her usual principles by preventing the clerk from going out.
Even if it means giving her a day off, she wouldn’t hesitate at all.
Lin Xi took the beautiful clerk, just walked out of the store, preparing to find a place to have a drink when two people approached, making him freeze on the spot, "Looks like the chance encounter is ruined once again!"
"Today just isn’t my lucky day!"
