Supernatural Insight Eyes-Chapter 61 - 0059 little white face
61: 0059 little white face?
61: 0059 little white face?
Participating in this business banquet myself?
Ye Qiu quickly understood the reason behind it.
Shen Tianlong’s days were numbered, and by doing this, he wanted to push Shen Mengchen to the forefront.
Shen Mengchen was his only successor, and he was taking advantage of the banquet to let many business tycoons become aware of his daughter.
As for why he invited Ye Qiu, aside from protecting Shen Mengchen’s safety, Shen Tianlong had other plans in mind.
Knowing that she had to attend the banquet tonight, Shen Mengchen wasn’t in a great mood.
She hated this type of business gathering, which was far less enjoyable than shopping.
“Mengchen, let’s accompany you,” Shangguan Hong suddenly said.
“Really?” Upon hearing Shangguan Hong’s words, Shen Mengchen’s eyes lit up with joy, no longer dreadfully bored with her friends by her side.
“Oh, Yinyin is going to the banquet too.
I’m going to wear a floral dress,” Niu Yinyin said, dancing with excitement.
She was quite interested in the business banquet, as it was a new event for her.
Speaking of attire, Shen Mengchen glanced at Ye Qiu and asked, “Hey, you’re wearing that to the banquet tonight?”
“What’s wrong?
Can’t I?” Ye Qiu felt looked down upon by the girl, despite his casual dress, no one could stop him from entering, could they?
As if she already knew the answer, Shen Mengchen rolled her eyes at Ye Qiu and said, “If you wear that, you’ll definitely be the center of attention at the event.”
There was no helping it.
With a high face value, good temperament, and a handsome image, it was normal to draw attention.
Ye Qiu, a bit embarrassed by Shen Mengchen’s words, arrogantly raised his head, putting on a cool demeanor.
This act left the girls speechless, Shen Mengchen couldn’t stand Ye Qiu’s shameless narcissism; he definitely hadn’t understood her point.
“Hey, you’re representing my Longjia Group by attending, and that outfit just won’t do,” Shen Mengchen felt it was better to be direct, as Ye Qiu’s emotional intelligence was rather low.
“But this is the only suit I have.
If not this, what should I wear?” Ye Qiu said indifferently.
“Are you stupid?
Can’t you just buy one if you don’t have it?” Shen Mengchen was frustrated.
Ye Qiu nodded, certainly agreeing with Shen Mengchen’s idea.
But his next sentence almost made Shen Mengchen flip the table: “But buying clothes costs money.”
Black lines appeared on Shen Mengchen’s forehead as she yelled, “Would it kill you if I bought them for you?”
Ye Qiu nodded, “That would work.”
…
Shopping is a woman’s nature, especially when there’s an excuse to buy Ye Qiu a set of appropriate clothes, it gave a bigger excuse to shop.
Shopping was Ye Qiu’s least favorite activity.
He couldn’t understand why, upon seeing those shiny, glittering things, both Shen Mengchen and Shangguan Hong would always go forward to admire them.
Now, as soon as Ye Qiu had mentioned not having clothes and Shen Mengchen insisted on buying some, he had been dragged out by the women.
To undergo this inhumane ‘shopping’ torture.
The sun outside was blazing hot, as if it had set the world on fire.
On the street, many people were holding umbrellas or wearing pretty hats to block the sun.
Ye Qiu disliked shopping but enjoyed admiring the beauties on the street, especially during summer when women liked to show off their white, shapely legs to showcase their beauty and attract more attention.
Of course, it attracted a lot of stares, most of them admiring, while some were lecherous, their eyes darting around.
Ye Qiu considered himself one who admired legs in a purely appreciative manner.
Especially during such a boring pastime as shopping, Ye Qiu could only motivate himself to move forward by admiring beautiful women.
“Hey, Ye Qiu, when you have three beauties by your side, you don’t look at them but at others.
Don’t you know other men are jealous of you?” Shen Mengchen had noticed Ye Qiu’s gaze wandering over many women on the street and immediately knew he was up to no good.
“Hehe, the young lady is right, but as the saying goes, ‘a rabbit doesn’t eat the grass by its burrow.'” Ye Qiu replied with a mischievous smile.
“You…” Shen Mengchen was speechless, wanting to reprimand Ye Qiu, but seeing how crowded the street was, refrained from doing so as it would damage her image, and instead glared at him before angrily turning her head away, ignoring him.
Shangguan Hong smiled, while Niu Yinyin, full of energy, hopped ahead.
As for Ye Zi, she hadn’t come.
She didn’t like shopping and certainly wasn’t as keen on it as Shen Mengchen and Shangguan Hong.
She stayed at the villa, perhaps because being an assassin for so long, entering the bustling streets made her uncomfortable.
Ye Qiu’s pleasant time admiring long legs didn’t last long before the three women dragged him into an upscale men’s clothing store.
The store was decorated with a luxurious atmosphere, exuding a rich and imposing vibe, very different from an ordinary clothing shop.
Seeing two beautiful ladies with a cute child appearing at the store entrance, the waiting staff took the initiative to walk over.
“Hello, are you here to shop for men’s wear?
Are you picking something out for your boyfriends?
We have a variety of styles here.”
Shen Mengchen and Shangguan Hong had browsed through plenty of women’s clothing stores but it was their first time in a men’s store.
Looking at the various men’s clothes on display, they showed an interested expression.
Shen Mengchen and Shangguan Hong were dressed simply, yet exuded an extraordinary aura.
This staff member did not look down upon the three women.
She often dealt with society’s elite and had seen many luxury goods.
When she noticed the bracelets on the wrists of the two ladies, she immediately concluded that their net worth was far from ordinary.
Ye Qiu followed the three women into the store and when the employee saw Ye Qiu’s appearance, she was taken aback.
How did he get in?
At first glance, the female employee found Ye Qiu’s attire to be rather plain.
Such a person was shopping in their store?
Although there were a few wealthy people who were low-key and dressed plainly when they shopped, they were the minority.
Most rich people preferred to be more conspicuous.
Who would bother putting on ragged clothes to go out for a stroll?
Anyway, she couldn’t understand such people.
She ignored Ye Qiu, thinking it best to overlook such a customer.
He obviously couldn’t afford anything anyway, so to spend time on him would just be a waste.
Moreover, such a customer probably hadn’t been to many stores and certainly didn’t know the prices of the clothes in her store.
She guessed he would skulk away soon enough.
The female employee focused all her energy on Shen Mengchen and the other two ladies, who were the ones likely able to make a purchase, so she was very enthusiastic, her face full of smiles.
The three women picked and chose, holding up various suits for comparison.
The employee helped tirelessly, even forgetting to see if Ye Qiu had left.
“You two are picking and choosing, why not just let Ye Qiu brother try some on?
It seems so exhausting to watch you guys like this,” Niu Baobao hit the nail on the head, prompting the two women to realize what they should do.
Right, they were there to buy clothes for Ye Qiu, not for themselves.
It would be better to have him try them on to see if they fit.
The two women subconsciously treated shopping for men’s clothes as if they were shopping for themselves, enjoying the selection despite it being men’s fashion.
Pointed out by Niu Yinyin’s sharp observation, Shen Mengchen gestured for Ye Qiu to come over.
He was sitting there, chin propped on his hand, looking through the glass at the passing crowd.
“This big pervert must be ogling the beauties again,” muttered Shen Mengchen when she saw how intently Ye Qiu was staring.
She marched over to him with her sleeves rolled up, grabbed hold of Ye Qiu, and dragged him over.
“Hey hey… Be gentle, Miss, it hurts!” Ye Qiu complained as his ear was tugged painfully.
When would this girl’s violent tendencies decrease a bit?
“Take this and try it on,” said Shen Mengchen as she tossed the clothes into Ye Qiu’s hands.
After speaking, she crossed her arms in front of her chest, showing her disapproval of him.
He was too infuriating—ignoring a beauty right in front of him, and instead looking at others, unforgivable!
The employee witnessed this scene and was immediately stunned.
He hasn’t left yet?
The employee thought Ye Qiu had gone, given his stall-bought clothes it was obvious he couldn’t afford the store’s apparel.
However, at this moment, she saw the great beauty Shen Mengchen acting playful and scolding with Ye Qiu, which shocked her.
And it didn’t end there.
Shangguan Hong also approached and whispered something in Ye Qiu’s ear, her every smile and frown betraying an intimate familiarity.
Both beautiful women were laughing and chatting with this man.
Who on earth was he?
Could it be that she had misjudged again?
Was he a wealthy tycoon?
The female employee stared at Ye Qiu, but somehow, he didn’t seem to fit the image of a tycoon.
He had a playful grin, and his eyes occasionally showed a lecherous sparkle, obviously resembling a small-time thug.
However, this explanation did not seem to fit with the two women’s attitude towards Ye Qiu.
Suddenly, an idea popped into her head.
“Gigolo!
This guy must be a gigolo,” she thought.
The employee found this explanation convincing, that Ye Qiu was a pretty boy kept by the women.
However, upon closer examination of Ye Qiu, she realized he was not particularly handsome; in fact, he looked quite ordinary.
Considering the two beauties’ clothing and demeanor, they wouldn’t keep someone like that even if they were into keeping gigolos.
Could it be…
The employee suddenly blushed, wracking her brain until she could only think of one possible explanation.
Her gaze involuntarily shifted toward the lower half of Ye Qiu’s body.
