"Yes, boss!"
A famous luxury clothing store in Los Angeles.
Happy, wearing sunglasses and a suit, stood in the hall. He waved his hand with a bold gesture, "Call your manager out. I want all the clothes in your store that fit this size. Pack them up and have them all delivered to this address this afternoon."
The saleslady took a look and thought someone had come in to buy something for free, so she made way for him without causing any concern.
"All? You... take whatever you want..."
"By the way, I want both men's and women's styles. Money is not a problem."
"okay!"
The young lady agreed excitedly. It would be different if she paid him money, as it would be a huge commission.
Happy had a serious look on his face the whole time, staring closely at the clerk packing and processing the items.
This is very important. As long as you do it well, you will be promoted and get a raise soon, so you must not be careless.
I was right. Tony has indeed changed. I have never seen him care so much about another person before... Tony's life is finally getting on the right track.
As a friend, I'm really happy for him.
/——————
Lai Mu looked at the countless clothes piled up in the room, and his head felt like it had been punched.
In the afternoon, Happy emptied out an entire luxury clothing store. The store manager drove the goods there personally with an extremely respectful attitude.
There were more than 200 sets of clothes in total, and after the discount it cost nearly 2 million US dollars.
This is actually nothing, just two million...but among the more than two hundred sets of clothes, fully one hundred of them are women's clothes!
All kinds of Lolita, dresses, shorts, women's down jackets, women's suits...off-shoulder, backless, leg-exposed...and what the hell are those stockings!
Can't get through, right?!
Is this a deliberate attempt to piss me off? Have I offended Stark recently? Have I? No matter how I think about it, I don't think so!
but……
These clothes are actually quite nice.
Lai Mu picked up a light blue dress beside the bed. The upper part was hollowed out with geometric stripes, and the hem was about fingertip-length, with a slight left slant. It was made of silk, very soft and delicate, and had a Mori girl style.
Looking at it, Lai Mu couldn't help but think of the day when she wore the wrong clothes in the bathroom, that light blue dress, and the beautiful girl wearing the dress in the mirror opposite.
So cute, so stunning, so delicate and charming... every move she made followed my own movements and she looked exactly like me.
He suddenly felt an urge to see her again.
Just... put on the clothes in your hand and find a mirror, and you can briefly summon that beautiful girl in this room.
Then, see her again?
blah blah blah!
There was a slight sound of the door opening, which sounded like a thunderclap to Lai Mu's ears and frightened him.
"Pepper! What are you doing in here?!"
Lai Mu's face had an unnatural blush and he looked a little angry and embarrassed.
Although Pepper was a little confused as to why Lai Mu reacted so strongly, she didn't take it seriously.
"I heard your clothes arrived, came to take a look."
She looked at the room full of clothes in surprise, covering her mouth. She was also a little scared. "Did Tony buy so many for you? Oh my God! I thought he was just joking."
"uh-huh."
Lai Mu responded with a straight face, he hadn't recovered from the shock just now.
Pepper walked in, walked around the pile of clothes, looked left and right, and suddenly a smile appeared on her face.
She picked out a few clothes and brought them to Lai Mu, "Let me help you try on the clothes. No one knows how to dress better than a woman. I will definitely dress you up beautifully."
She spread out a black Gothic Lolita skirt and waved it in front of Lai Mu, her eyes full of anticipation.
"Look at this one. I think it suits you very well. Try it on."
"If I put it on, I'll be like the black princess in the fairy tale, mysterious and charming..."
Lai Mu was silent and shook his head.
"What about this one? And this one."
One is a white women's evening dress, which is elegant and simple, looking mature and generous.
The other set is a pink slim-fit suit with a white lettered long-sleeved T-shirt, which is more playful and cute.
"I think they both suit you very well. You are going to a party, so both an evening gown and a suit are suitable for you."
Pepper blinked her eyes expectantly and begged him pitifully, "Just try one, just one!"
"Dah!"
Lai Mu coldly ignored Pepper's tearful face and pushed her out of the door amid protests.
"You go out, I'll pick out a men's suit myself."
Close the door and lock it.
He leaned against the door and sighed weakly...his heart was filled with mixed feelings.
Half an hour later, he pushed the door open and walked out, and the room full of clothes had disappeared.
All the clothes, including all women's clothes, were received by him into the dimensional space.
He himself simply wore a white top and black trousers.
If you ignore the price of these two clothes, and ignore his overly delicate face and eye-catching light blue hair, he looks like an ordinary young man.
Pepper, who had been waiting in the living room for a long time, was very disappointed. This outfit was obviously not as good-looking as the ones she had chosen.
Lai Mu walked out and waved to Pepper, "Let's go, we're going to be late."
The time was just right, as they were about to drive to the Disney Concert Hall.
The party was held there, starting at eight o'clock in the evening, lasting four hours and ending at twelve o'clock.
There weren't many people there when Lemu and Pepper arrived.
Melodious tunes are playing in the hall, and the walls are decorated with geometric wavy tiles in warm colors, which makes it spacious and full of artistic atmosphere.
A handful of people gathered in twos and threes in various places in the hall to chat.
-------
Chapter 25. It's not about lust!
Disney Concert Hall, where the Stark Soldiers' Families Fund Gala is held.
As one of the main representatives of the organizer, Pepper had to deal with those so-called celebrities from all walks of life. She was pulled away shortly after the two arrived.
Lai Mu really brought a bag of snacks, including biscuits, candied fruits, dried fish, chocolate, candy, etc. The world of foodies is always inseparable from delicious snacks.
Because he had eaten all his food supplies in the afternoon, these few snacks were taken from the collection cabinet of the rich man Stark.
He found a chair in the corner and sat at the edge of the bar. He opened half of the snack bag he had casually placed on the table, and the various exquisitely packaged high-end snacks inside were very dazzling.
There were four or five bartenders at the bar. One of them, a big bartender in a white shirt, looked at me, looked at me again, and walked over with a stern face.
"I'm sorry, but we don't allow anyone who's not dressed properly to enter here, and we don't allow you to bring your own food. I'll confiscate your food, so please leave this way, or I'll call security."
There were other rules, but there was no rule about confiscating things. He just saw some high-end goods inside and planned to take some benefits for himself while maintaining the rules.
There are all kinds of people in the crowd, and their aesthetics vary greatly... After all, even Cthulhu-style characters are liked by some people. So it didn't surprise Lai Mu that someone could resist their own appearance.
He just shook his head helplessly, "Isn't it inappropriate to confiscate things? This is private property, and as far as I know, there is no such rule here."
The Great Sage can access all the regulations of the Disney Concert Hall in an instant by connecting to the Internet.
"If I say yes, then yes! I am just following the rules."
The bartender in a white shirt spoke gruffly, began to become irritable, and glared at people with his big eyes like copper bells.
Lai Mu gently pushed the snacks forward, "Since you said so, here you go."
I'll see how you'll beg me to take it back. You're really brave, you dare to take advantage of this situation, aren't you afraid of losing your job? Or do I look like I'm easy to bully, the kind who won't even say a word when I'm wronged?
Indeed, his appearance is very deceptive in the eyes of others. Those who like him will find him cute and charming; those who have bad intentions will find him weak and vulnerable.
In fact, his character is neither lovable nor weak.
At this moment, Obadiah passed by not far away. He noticed the commotion here, walked over with a smile, greeted and waved to the bartender to leave and stop arguing.
"Why did you come without telling me in advance? Otherwise, I should have prepared cake and milk for you in advance. I know you like cake."
Obadiah was still dressed in a suit and tie, looking very neat and tidy, with a gentle smile on his face, like a kind-hearted elder.
He pulled out his receipt and asked the bartender for a cocktail, "A whiskey Manhattan."
He looked up and down at Lai Mu's clothes, glanced at the bag of snacks on the table, and nodded in agreement, "This is our own party, so we should be casual and do whatever we like. If you have any requests, you can find the manager here and just say my name."
Obadiah winked secretly, "We paid a lot of money, and we have the final say. Don't let others bully you here."
Lai Mu smiled and agreed, "Okay, thank you, Obi."
Obadiah did not intend to stay too long. He pretended to be troubled by his work and said, "Well, I still have a lot of troubles to deal with. You know, adults always have to attend this and that social events. They don't have a moment to relax."
Before leaving, he called over the white-shirted bartender, pulled him aside, stuffed a few large tips into his pocket, and patted him on the shoulder, "Go buy me some milk or something like that for this lovely little guy. And... please, please don't make him unhappy again, OK?"
Obadiah smiled broadly but spoke slowly and carefully, which frightened the bartender and he quickly agreed.
After walking away, Obadiah frowned and looked back, and saw Lai Mu still sitting at the bar.
He shook his head slightly and labeled Lai Mu as weak, easy to be bullied, and not threatening at all.
