Chapter 148 Who is that girl?
After a moment, Yu Chen made the first move.
He lifted a corner of the curtain, and the light streaming in made her squint.
Yu Chen got out of the car first, stood under the car, and looked back at her.
A large hand reached out towards her.
Su Wuli looked at the hand, hesitated for a moment, and then offered her own hand.
Yu Chen grabbed her and pulled her down.
When her feet touched the ground, she finally looked up and glanced around.
Before me was a bustling street.
It's wider than the one we just passed, and the shops are more impressive.
On both sides are two- or three-story buildings, with all sorts of signs hanging on them.
Right in front of them was a shop.
The storefront is large, with a plaque hanging above the doorway bearing three characters.
Su Wuli tried hard to identify it for a while and recognized it as "Jinxiu Pavilion".
A waiter standing at the door saw them, his eyes lit up, and he quickly came to greet them.
"Please come in, sir. All our fabrics are of the finest quality, and we have a wide variety of styles to choose from..."
Yu Chen ignored the waiter and looked down at her instead.
Su Wuli stared blankly at the door.
I visited many shops like this while filming.
But they were all set pieces, and everything inside was just a prop.
You can't touch it, you can't budge it.
She took a step inside.
As soon as I stepped across the threshold, I smelled a faint fragrance.
It's not pungent; it has a natural scent, like the fabric itself, mixed with a hint of wood and flowers.
The shop was lined with shelves on all four sides, displaying fabrics in colors ranging from light to dark, all neatly arranged.
Several garments hung to one side, including skirts and robes, all embroidered with exquisite patterns.
Su Wuli stood in the center, unsure where to look.
The waiter followed beside them, enthusiastically introducing the products.
"What would you like to see, young lady? We have Suzhou embroidery, Sichuan embroidery, Hunan embroidery, and also newly arrived fabrics from Jiangnan..."
Su Wuli listened, but her eyes fell on a dress.
She wore a light apricot-colored ruqun (a type of traditional Chinese dress), with a plain upper garment and a few pale pink peach blossoms embroidered on the bottom of the skirt, appearing and disappearing faintly.
The embroidery craftsmanship is truly excellent, completely different from modern mass-produced embroidery.
She couldn't resist reaching out and touching it.
As she was touching it, Yu Chen's voice came from behind her, "Do you like it?"
Upon hearing this, she turned around.
The man stood behind her, his eyes slightly lowered, his gaze fixed on her face.
"Do you like it?" Yu Chen asked again.
Su Wuli nodded slightly to him.
Yu Chen glanced at the waiter.
The shop assistant immediately understood, his face beaming with smiles. "Would you like to try it on, young lady? There's a fitting room inside; I'll take you there."
"Okay, thank you."
Su Wuli followed the waiter inside.
There was a small cubicle inside. The waiter handed her the dress and left.
Su Wuli stood there, looking at the dress in her hand, unsure of what to do next.
After struggling for a while, I finally managed to put it on.
She glanced down at the light apricot-colored top and the skirt, a slightly darker apricot color, embroidered with pale pink peach blossoms at the bottom.
She checked carefully to make sure she was dressed properly before going out.
The shop still had the same people.
The shop assistant stood by the counter, while Shadow Falcon and his companion guarded the door.
When Su Wuli came out, those people all looked up.
The waiter's eyes lit up, his mouth opened, wanting to praise him but not knowing how.
The two Shadow Falcons glanced at it and immediately lowered their eyes.
Su Wuli didn't pay much attention to them.
My eyes instinctively searched for someone, but I couldn't find them.
She couldn't help but take a few steps forward, go around a row of shelves, and finally saw that tall figure.
He was facing away from her, seemingly looking at something.
Just as Su Wuli was about to call out to him, she suddenly saw someone walking towards him.
It's a girl.
She wore a pale yellow dress, a beaded flower in her hair, and a shy smile on her face.
The girl walked up to the man, stopped, and began to speak.
Because they were a bit far apart, Su Wuli couldn't hear what was being said.
But you could see the adoration on the girl's face, and the obvious shyness of a young woman.
Yu Chen turned his head and gave her a faint glance.
That gaze was very short, just one glance.
However, the girl seemed to be frozen in place, as if she had been immobilized by something.
The smile was still on his face, but it had become distorted.
Yu Chen didn't say anything, he just glanced at him.
Then look away and stop looking at the other person.
The shadow falcon beside them had already moved.
He walked over and stood in front of the girl, saying nothing and just standing there.
Seeing this, the girl took a step back.
Then she turned around and walked away quickly.
Su Wuli stood by the shelf, watching this scene without reacting for a moment.
The girl ran away in a rather disheveled manner.
Just then, Yu Chen turned his head.
Eyes facing each other.
Yu Chen walked over and stopped in front of her.
I looked down at her clothes.
My gaze traveled from top to bottom, from the pale apricot dress to the braid on her shoulder, and then to her face.
He spoke slowly, "Beautiful."
She caught her breath when she met Yu Chen's eyes.
Yu Chen looked at the shop assistant, "Are there any other styles?"
The shop assistant nodded quickly, "Yes, yes, we have plenty of ready-made clothes here. What kind of clothes does the young lady like? We have a few more over here, please take a look..."
Yu Chen walked to the side.
The shop assistant quickly followed behind, pointing to the clothes hanging on the rack and introducing each one.
Su Wuli stood there, watching his retreating figure.
But I couldn't help thinking about that girl from earlier.
After a moment, she shook her head, shook off the thoughts, and took a few steps forward to catch up.
Yu Chen stood in front of a row of shelves, and a shop assistant was taking a dress down from it and handing it to him.
He glanced at it and put it back.
Su Wuli happened to walk up to him, and the man turned to look at her.
"This one?" He pointed to another one.
It's a light pink color, a bit lighter than the previous one, with a few orchids embroidered on the hem.
Su Wuli nodded subconsciously.
Yu Chen glanced at the waiter.
The shop assistant understood and immediately took the item down and handed it to her.
Su Wuli took the dress and walked towards the fitting room, but couldn't help looking back halfway there.
Yu Chen raised an eyebrow at her, as if asking if she needed any help.
Seeing this, she quickly looked away and went into the cubicle.
After changing, go outside.
Yu Chen glanced at it, nodded slightly, and said, "Hmm."
Then I picked out another one.
Su Wuli continued trying.
Pale yellow, pea green, light pink...
Change them one by one.
But Su Wuli's gaze kept drifting towards the door.
Only Shadow Falcon and his companion stood at the entrance, like two stakes.
Until she came out after trying on the last item,
She likes the light purple color.
Yu Chen turned to the waiter and said in a calm voice, "Wrap up everything we just tried."
The man was stunned.
She was stunned.
Wrap them all up?
She just tried on several outfits, about seven or eight pieces.
The waiter realized what was happening, and his smile almost overflowed.
"Yes, yes, yes."
Su Wuli looked at him and whispered, "You don't need to buy so much..."
"I'll buy a few items to tide me over."
cope?
Su Wuli paused.
Yu Chen continued, "I'll have a tailor come over and redo it."
Tailor at your door?
She could certainly stay here, but she didn't know how long she could stay.
He had a tailor come to her home to make clothes for her.
It's as if... she'll always be here.
