Chapter 432 You two standing together are simply a delight to the eye
Chen Xin paused.Ou Jue spoke unhappily, "Are you hesitating because you want your year-end bonus deducted?"
"Ah, no, no, no." Chen Xin quickly shook his head and hurriedly said, "I went and found all the records of Xia Zhiyun from childhood to now. She has never changed her name, and seventeen years ago, she never went to S country."
At that moment, Ou Jue’s heart seemed to sink even further.
So, was he overthinking it?
Indeed, in this world, there are no such coincidences?
——
Meanwhile, Xiyan was still casually looking at the clothes in the store.
The store clerk was a seasoned veteran, and if nothing else, just by looking at the demeanor of Ou Jue and Xiyan.
Clicking her tongue, what a perfect couple.
Either one of them looked like a capital "Noble"
She approached with a smile, first recommending their masterpiece, "Miss, how about this one? It’s our brand’s limited edition for the season, only two in B City, and we have them both here!"
Xiyan looked up to see a nude-colored long dress, exuding an ethereal charm.
Placed in the window, under the soft spotlight, it was so beautiful that it was hard to look away.
"This one is a one-size-fits-all, just perfect for you, miss. Why not give it a try?"
Thinking for a moment... she hadn’t bought a decent dress in the past five years due to her thriftiness.
In a few days, she’ll be joining the crew, and there’ll surely be various cocktail parties and celebratory events later on.
The clothes from before... cough, definitely aren’t suitable for attending such grand occasions.
"Miss?" the store clerk spoke again.
Xiyan snapped back to reality, remembered the credit card her mom gave her yesterday, and nodded, "Okay."
Typically, once such a customer decides to try something on, it’s pretty much a done deal.
The store clerk said cheerfully, "Please wait a moment!"
Saying this, she carefully took down the dress, holding it in her arms, and led Xiyan from the front, "The fitting room is over here, please follow me."
Xiyan stepped forward to follow.
"Is the gentleman on the phone outside your boyfriend?"
"Mm." Xiyan responded with a shy smile.
"So handsome, and miss, you look so beautiful, like a celebrity. That gentleman is even more strikingly handsome, you two standing together is such a delightful sight..." The store clerk sincerely praised, then stopped abruptly, "The fitting room is right here."
"Thank you." Xiyan smiled again and walked in.
The store clerk who had just attended to Xiyan gleefully ran over to another clerk, excitedly patting her on the arm, "Did you see that young lady just now? Super pretty! I think her smile is so warm, and her boyfriend is super handsome, this couple looks so wonderful together."
The other clerk teased, "No matter how wonderful, it has nothing to do with you."
"Who says it has nothing to do with me? They are such a pleasing sight. By the way, that young lady seemed a bit familiar to me, I wonder if she might actually be a celebrity?"
While the two clerks were chatting, Xiyan had already changed into the dress and walked out.
Uh, it’s been a long time since she wore such a formal dress, feeling a bit embarrassed to say.
As she lifted the hem of her skirt and walked out, she saw the clerks not far away all looking stunned.
With an incredulous expression, they stared at Xiyan.
Uh, what’s going on?
Did I not zip up the dress properly?
Xiyan quickly looked down.
