Chapter 739: Some Clothes Only Look Good On Certain People
“Why is there five hundred thousand yuan here?” Sun Yuhan felt as if she was hit by fortune. How could an empty bank card gain an extra five hundred thousand yuan all of a sudden? There must be a reason.
“It’s my earnings from stock speculation. There’s still another five hundred thousand yuan in my bank account.”
Lu Yi spoke apathetically, as if that five hundred thousand yuan was just five yuan. Even though he did not really have Midas’ touch, but that five hundred thousand yuan was honestly an easy profit for him.
Sun Yuhan was still doubtful. This is impossible. It can’t be true, right?
He had earned five hundred thousand yuan over just several days. Would it increase to five million, or even fifty million yuan after this? Just think about how many houses she can buy with the money.
“Then could you invest in more stocks?” She held Jiu Yue’s hands tightly. “Let’s buy a few more houses.”
Lu Yi frowned slightly. It was not that he despised money, but there were always risks in stock market investment. There was no guarantee that they would gain profit every single time. It was like earning one million from ten thousand, followed by a deficit of five hundred thousand, starting all over again after that, and earning five hundred thousand at last. Moreover, the market was fairly volatile lately, so he did not take any further risks.
If he relied solely on this to get rich, he was afraid that he might suffer a crushing loss.
“It’s been a bear market recently.” He removed Sun Yuhan’s hands gently, and continued to eat. They had spent nearly an hour on this meal, so the dishes had already gone cold.
“Then just invest again when the market is better,” Sun Yuhan said promptly. She reached for her bag, preparing to check if there really was five hundred thousand yuan in the card.
At first, she was worried about what she should do as she only had fifty thousand yuan left. But all of a sudden, she had another five hundred thousand yuan. To be specific, it was one million as Jiu Yue still had five hundred thousand in his account. Hence, even if she spent all the money on her hands, there would still be five hundred thousand yuan saved up for future use.
Not to mention that there were already four houses under her name.
She could buy anything that she wanted to. Yes, she wanted to shop for pretty clothes to dress herself up. She also wanted to style her hair, to buy classy cosmetics, and expensive jewelry.
She went to the bank hastily, but it was not open yet. She could only sit outside and wait. In fact, there were still butterflies in her stomach as she was very nervous.
What if there was no money? What if the transaction had not been processed yet? What if Jiu Yue was playing a trick on her?
After the long and torturous wait, the bank finally opened its doors. She took out her card and checked the balance in her account. The result came out right after, and there really was five hundred thousand yuan in it.
She took back the card, and still felt light-headed even as she came out of the bank.
Yan Huan returned to the grand mall again to buy something. She walked into a shop, and began to browse through their clothing selection. She went through them one by one, and took out her favorites to try them on later.
In the end, just as her hand brushed a dress, another hand reached out and snatched it hastily away from her.
Yan Huan blinked. She raised her head, and saw that a tanned, skinny lady had already started to gauge the fitting of the dress on her body. She shot Yan Huan a dirty look, and continued to admire the dress for a really long time.
Perhaps women would always treat those who were prettier and younger than them with envy and jealousy.
Yan Huan continued to shuffle through the clothes on the rack, and pulled out a red dress from the middle.
In fact, she did not really like to wear red, but she wanted to look like fire in this season.
She walked into the fitting room and tried on the clothes. When she walked out, the salesperson who was standing at the side was stunned.
“You have such a beautiful figure, and your skin is so fair. This dress compliments you perfectly.”
It was rather hard to wear it without looking like a clown as the color was very bright. The slim-fit design would also expose all the flaws of those who did not have a good figure.
Women with a slender figure would look even prettier in it, while those with poorer figures would look the opposite.
A woman strutted out and came to stand beside Yan Huan. She was the one who had snatched Yan Huan’s dress away just now. Yan Huan was actually wearing the same dress as her, albeit in a different color.
The one on Yan Huan was red, while the other woman was wearing one that was sapphire blue. Regardless of the color, both would need someone fair to pull it off nicely. Otherwise, it would look terrible.
Yan Huan glanced at the woman beside her through the corners of her eyes. She had already put on the sapphire blue dress, but she was not tall enough, and had yellowish skin. Her hair was also not styled, and her skin was in bad condition.
Hence, Yan Huan could only use the word ugly to describe her.
However, she might just be really confident in herself, and Yan Huan had never been one to stick her nose in someone else’s business.
“You really do look like Yan Huan,” another salesperson sighed in admiration.
“Yes, many people have said so,” Yan Huan replied with a reserved smile. She was wearing a pair of black rimmed glasses and a pair of flats, so perhaps she had a softer aura compared to when she was on screen. Now, she seemed just like a college student.
No one knew that she was already an old woman.
She handed over her card. The clothes racked up a total of around 2,000 yuan, but she paid without blinking.
Right after she made her payment, the tanned, skinny woman walked toward her and got ready to pay.
“Your total would be 2,580 yuan,” the cashier spoke with a bright smile.
“What? 2,580 yuan?” Sun Yuhan could not believe what she heard. “Why is it so expensive?”
It was worth nearly three months of her salary. The clothes were not edible, and were made up of just a few pieces of cloth. There were other shops that would sell apparel for a few hundred yuan, but it was almost 3,000 yuan here.
The cashier remained smiling and maintained a good attitude. The selling point of a franchise would be the quality of the service, aside from the clothes.
“Miss, here are your clothes.” Another salesperson handed over the bagged clothes to Yan Huan, who accepted it with a nod of thanks.
Her delicate facial features looked radiant and enchanting, an aura of elegance permeating her every move. It was something that came from within, which was not something that could be compared with mere clothing or external appearance.
She had been alive for so long, and had gone through all sorts of ups and downs. It was as if her heart was cruising through a plateau, neither going up nor down. It just remained level and flat.
Without knowing why, Sun Yuhan did not like the woman beside her. Perhaps she was so pretty that she could not help but grumble in her heart: I wonder who’s her sugar daddy, since she looks so slutty.
Women should be down to earth, just like her. She even bought a house and everything with her own effort. Of course, it was not that she could not afford the clothes.
She handed over her card, but to be honest, she was slightly distressed by it.
It was almost 3,000 yuan, which was three months of her salary in the past.
