Chapter 502: Burn Him to Death, He Must Be Burned to Death
Scarf perched on Xia Shixuan’s shoulder, elegantly scanning the clothes in the store. It soon found its target, stretched out its neck, and bit the corner of a slip dress, pulling it off the hanger.
"Is this for me?" Xia Shixuan’s face lit up with surprise. ’This dress looks pretty good. I’ll bet I’ll look great in it, right? Heh, I’ll go change in the fitting room right now and do a little spin for Bin. Let’s see if he can resist that!’
However, Scarf, still holding the dress, stretched its head toward Li Shiqing and nodded twice. It seemed the slip dress was meant for her. This instantly made Xia Shixuan’s face darken. ’Damn it, I got excited for nothing!’
"For me?" Li Shiqing was a little incredulous, pointing to her own nose as she asked. Only after Scarf nodded again did she take the dress and hold it against her chest. "Shixuan," she asked uncertainly, "do you think this dress would suit me? Isn’t the neckline a bit too low? I feel a little awkward."
"You’ve been out of college for over a year, what’s wrong with wearing something a little sexier?" Before Xia Shixuan could answer, Qiao Wenqi rushed over, holding the dress against Li Shiqing this way and that while clucking her tongue in approval. "This dress is a perfect match for your figure. The color and style are just right, too. Scarf really has a good eye."
"Exactly! What’s there to be afraid of, showing a little skin?" Xia Shixuan got hands-on. "You’re already so well-endowed. What’s the point of always hiding such an asset? You should give our Boss Shen a little treat, make him drool with envy. That’s how it should be! This is the one, no doubt about it. Hurry up and change in the fitting room so we can see!"
Li Shiqing was a shy girl and couldn’t handle the teasing from a shameless flirt like Xia Shixuan. Blushing crimson, she clutched the dress with one hand and covered her chest with the other as she dashed into the fitting room. Xia Shixuan and the others continued to browse. Before Li Shiqing could even come out, Scarf had already picked out a second item—a simple, sharp-looking short-sleeved shirt. It carried the shirt over to Bai Yanni.
"I liked this shirt the moment I saw it. I can’t believe Scarf and I were on the same page!" Bai Yanni happily took the shirt and went to a fitting room. She had always preferred a more androgynous style and wasn’t fond of dresses or skirts. It was a mystery how Scarf had deduced this information, but the shirt it chose for her was a perfect match for her taste.
"Scarf, what do you think of this one?" Mo Xiaomo was getting impatient. She grabbed a short skirt from a nearby rack and held it against her waist. To Xia Shixuan and Qiao Wenqi, the skirt seemed to be a good match for Mo Xiaomo. But to their surprise, Scarf shook its head. It glanced at the nearby clothes, picked out a skirt of the same style but a different color, and presented it to Mo Xiaomo.
"Whoa, this color is way better than the last one!" The small change made everyone’s eyes light up. A mere shift in color had produced an unexpectedly brilliant effect. If the previous skirt was an eighty-percent match for Mo Xiaomo, this one was a solid ninety-five. Before Scarf had presented this skirt, even a shopaholic like Xia Shixuan had thought the first one was the most suitable skirt for Mo Xiaomo in the entire store. It was only when Mo Xiaomo held Scarf’s choice against her waist that she realized such a perfect combination was possible.
"Mwah! I’ll buy you ice cream later!" Mo Xiaomo excitedly snatched up Scarf, gave it a big kiss, and hurried into a fitting room.
"Scarf, what do you think? Would these capris look good on me?" Xia Shixuan had learned from Mo Xiaomo’s example. Her eyes darted around, and she quickly grabbed a pair of pants she liked and showed them to Scarf. Over on the other side, Qiao Wenqi seemed to have found a suitable piece as well, and had just picked up a plaid top.
Scarf first looked at Xia Shixuan and shook its head in disapproval. Then it turned to Qiao Wenqi, tilted its head in thought for a moment, and finally nodded in approval.
"I’m going to the fitting room, too!" Qiao Wenqi could no longer maintain her composure. She grabbed the plaid top and ran toward the fitting rooms. The sales associate, trailing far behind, had to call out, "Ma’am, I’m sorry, but our store only has three fitting rooms, and they’re all full right now. Could you please wait a moment?"
This store had always been a high-end boutique with relatively low daily foot traffic, so it didn’t have a large number of fitting rooms like Uniqlo or Zara. Normally, three was enough, but unexpectedly, they were facing a shortage today.
"Mo Xiaomo, can you hurry up?!" Qiao Wenqi couldn’t help but urge. She was dying to see what she looked like in the top.
"Qiao, you can use mine!" Just as she finished speaking, the door to the adjacent fitting room opened. Li Shiqing came out, one hand covering her chest. She was now wearing the slip dress, revealing a tantalizing expanse of fair skin.
"Move your hand! Do a spin and let me see!" Xia Shixuan immediately rushed over, pulling Li Shiqing’s hand away from her chest without another word. She pushed her in front of the mirror, examining her from every angle as she walked and spun... But no matter how she looked, she felt the dress was a perfect match for Li Shiqing. It was sexy yet pure, alluring yet elegant—an absolutely perfect combination. She patted Li Shiqing’s shoulder and said, "Go show Bin and see how he reacts."
"Okay!" ’The boss will definitely like it, right?’ Hearing Xia Shixuan’s lavish praise had filled Li Shiqing with delight. She immediately turned, walked out of the store, and did a spin in front of Shen Yibin. "Boss, do I look good? Oh, I mean, does this outfit look good?" Li Shiqing’s face was so red it felt like it could bleed.
"Uh..." Shen Yibin’s jaw dropped in surprise. ’Logically speaking, Li Shiqing has been at my store for a while now. How come I never noticed she was so... stacked?’
"Beautiful. Absolutely beautiful!" After being stunned for a good while, Shen Yibin finally managed to choke out a few words. It was unclear if he meant the dress was beautiful, or the person wearing it.
"Bin, what do you think of my shirt?" Just as Li Shiqing returned to the store, Bai Yanni came out, having changed her clothes.
"Gorgeous! So dashing!" Shen Yibin gave her a thumbs-up.
And so, one after another, the girls came out of the store, showing off their beauty and allure in their new outfits for Shen Yibin. This drew constant sidelong glances from passing customers. ’What in the world is going on here?’
’This guy is the ultimate normie, bringing so many beautiful women out shopping! It’s... it’s enough to make you burn with envy, jealousy, and hate! A guy like that has to be burned at the stake! Burn him!’ Countless single guys roared inwardly.
