I dispiritedly look at him, Yifan treat me so kindness, just like I treat him so kindness, always make me think there are other attempts that contain evil intentions. But this time, I really don’t have the strength to battle of wits with him le.
‘You don’t look at me like this, I don’t have any evil intention. That is exactly what I think, it is essential for me to express my grat.i.tude. Very soon New Year’s reception party will be held le, can you afford an evening dress ma?’
Every year end, AC will hold a famous New Year’s reception. In the New Year’s reception, each division leader will make a brief annual summary of the success and failure of the company, at the same time sharing the upcoming future plan. AC wishes all employees good wishes and during the reception, AC will honour and award the best employee of the year according to the cla.s.s. Therefore New Year reception are AC employees most antic.i.p.ated festival after one year of hard work. The only requirement of this gathering is: must wear an evening dress to attend.
As an impoverished with heaps of foreign debt, me the free labour Guan Xiao Bei….. I plan to steal one dress from Su. To display my wisdom among the people by doing some parody just to deal with the pa.s.s.
Yifan, you are timely rain, but I’m afraid at the end you will turned into acidic rain.
When becoming a boss too long, the biggest problem is too fond to act on one’s own initiative.
After eating breakfast, Yifan and I pa.s.sed like thunder, moved like the wind, rush toward the traffic jam and we reached to a local high-end shopping mall.
‘Go ba, pick the one that you like.’ Yifan sat on the sofa and told me. In between of my absent-minded, I seem to see – an old farmer waving the whip and shouting toward the field full of ducks: ‘Go ba, if you don’t gnaw our neighbour w.a.n.g Jia’s paddy field you are not allow to return home.’
I wandered around the clothes’ rack and the Ms Shop a.s.sistant raise her head and laughing up her sleeve. I turned around and looked at myself in the mirror, my whole body was covered with Yifan’s sweater, Yifan’s pants and Yifan’s jacket….. the whole person look like one shrunk little old man. Forget it, unable to consider so much le, quickly pick one dress and go ba.
‘Here, this one.’ I’m looking for something similar, once done look for someone to settle the bill.
Yifan came over and looked at the clothes, despise and said: ‘My mom will also not wear such an old fashion style clothes.’
Ah! Old ah! What about this one? I have headache only think to get it done as quick as possible, hence without any trouble just simply pick one up from the side of the rack and ask.
‘No, khaki colour make you look like potato.’
‘Oh, what about red colour? I look good in red.’
‘When was the last time you dressed in red?’
‘I think, ah…., ah…., it doesn’t ring a bell, maybe before elementary school.’ I silently put back the red skirt, ‘I understand what you mean.’
‘What about this?’
‘Not good.’
‘This one?’
‘Ugly.’
‘With lace?’
‘Are you my nanny ma?’
…………….
‘Yifan, you are more troublesome than a housewife! No matter what, this is the one, today you must agree, don’t agree also must agree!’ Being deny for countless time I eventually blow up le.
Ms Shop a.s.sistant unable to hold back, it seem like she has endure it for a long time and finally unable to bear it: ‘Miss, you are holding a top hat……..’
Yifan smiled and took me to the sofa and he personally went le. I closed my eye to withstand my headache. In a moment, Yifan pa.s.sed me a dress, ‘You go and try it out.’
When I came out from the fitting room, well, I have to admit, Yifan that kind of expression can be called “stunning expression” I feel so good. ‘But why, the style so heavy?
I found out the truth from the mirror. As a result I feel a bit dizzy and somehow facing some standing instability, so I reach out and hold on to the fitting room’s door and my body slightly lean against it. Just such a simple action plus this dress, unexpectedly the silk harmonize with windblown dust atmosphere, without delay I behaved well and stand properly, waiting for President to inspect and affix a seal for approval.
Yifan somehow regain back himself and drawback his expression, he coughed out to hide his embarra.s.sment. He was satisfied with what I wore but once he saw my foot, his expression become motionless.
‘Guan Xiao Bei, why you always wear sneakers?’
‘During adultery can run fast ma.’ I laugh happily and said.
Luckily before Yifan turn hostile, Ms Shop a.s.sistant attentively bought a pair of matching high heels.
I admit, Yifan indeed has better taste, knowledge and experience, compare to me this bottomless small frog.
The girl in the mirror wore a dark green silk tube top mini dress, the length of the dress was more than an inch above the knee, the waistline was perfectly right, both show a beautiful fine curved line of the back and yet it doesn’t lose the sweet, fresh and pure look, at the left side of the chest a flower pattern was inlay into the dress to weakened the unsubtle and to manifest the moderate elegance. A pair of silver stilettos heels, make the entire person to look fine and exquisite.
I looked at myself in the mirror, just like I broke though the coc.o.o.n and became a b.u.t.terfly, the first time under the sunshine it discovered itself with such a beautiful wings, and it can be so graceful.
Yifan took the crystal necklace from the sales lady’s hand, gently worn on my neck, and then quietly stood by my side, the eyes fill with tender, together with me looking at the mirror that familiar but unfamiliar young lady.
That moment, I suddenly thought, if it is possible…….. let’s stand side by side, until the end of time……
