Chapter 250 Strolling through the alleyways, 3 unbranded items
Ning Yao had just finished class and was still holding her books.
When she saw Ning Chen and Ning Moran, she was stunned for a moment, but quickly came to her senses and greeted them with a smile.
"You're here so early?"
Ning Yao originally thought that since there was plenty of time, she wanted to go for a stroll in the alley across from the school with her roommates.
There are many shops there, selling clothes, pants, shoes, socks, and bags. Cui Mengmeng and Xin Yujue like to shop there.
Some items may not have a brand name, but their quality is surprisingly good.
"Hmm, did I disturb you? Are you going out?" Ning Moran asked.
"Yes, but it's okay. We can go shopping after we eat. It won't bother us."
Ning Yao waved her hand, and together with Cui Mengmeng and Xin Yujue, they turned around and headed to the teachers' apartment.
“No need to go so early. Why don’t we go with you? We can help carry your things.” Ning Moran looked at her mother gently and said with a smile.
The female students standing nearby were stunned. It turned out that Ning Moran wasn't unkind; she was only kind to certain people.
I'm so envious of Luo Xiyao. She had such good luck right from the start, starring in Director Guo's script, and now she has such an outstanding boy like Ning Moran by her side...
How wonderful it is for couples with an older woman and a younger man to be together! The younger men know how to win their older sisters' hearts!
Ning Yao, of course, had no idea what the people around her were thinking. After a moment's thought and consulting with her two roommates, she nodded in agreement.
There's nothing wrong with strolling around together; she also wanted to check out the clothes in those shops.
Always wearing luxury brands, she occasionally wanted to change things up, especially since Ning Yao had experienced hardship a few years ago.
Back then, she didn't have money to buy clothes for her children, so most of the time she bought fabric and made them by hand.
That's how she honed her sewing skills, and before she knew it, she became a renowned fashion designer and won awards.
She doesn't think that brands without a brand name or certification are items worn by low-class people. Different social classes have different needs, and she respects all designs.
The five of them walked out of the school gate in a grand procession and headed straight for the small commercial street opposite the Communication University of China.
It was right after class, and there was a lot of people around. Ning Yao's group consisted of both beautiful women and handsome men, each with an outstanding presence, making them extremely eye-catching. No matter where they went, people would stare at them.
Cui Mengmeng and Xin Yujue knew their way around easily and went to their respective favorite shops.
Because they could mooch meals off Ning Yao, the cost of their blood pact's meals was saved, allowing them to buy a lot of things.
They picked out a few items for themselves, and then, without prior arrangement, selected a few clothes and small items for Ning Yao.
They've been friends for a semester now, and they all know Ning Yao's personality.
They knew that Ning Yao wouldn't look down on them and had no class consciousness; she would be happy to receive a gift.
Ning Yao wasn't very interested in women's clothing, but instead walked into a shop that advertised handmade men's shirts.
The shop's design is very interesting, and the styles are very novel. I heard that they are all made by the shop owner, which is truly ingenious.
Ning Yao browsed around and found that all the shirts sold there were men's shirts, not a single one that a girl could wear, but there were boys' shirts.
This is near a university town, so the sales volume of children's clothing here is definitely not high. It's just going to gather dust here.
But the shop owner still stubbornly put out his own designed boys' shirts, and cleaned them up so that not a speck of dust was on them.
Ning Yao had a sharper eye than a professional tailor; she could tell Ning Moran's arm and waist measurements with just a glance.
Ning Yao first selected a snow-white shirt with crystal teardrop-shaped cufflinks for Ning Moran based on his body shape.
Snow white suits Ning Moran's gentle temperament, especially the teardrop cufflinks, as water itself symbolizes gentleness, nobility, and elegance.
Ning Yao particularly liked the store's design and became addicted at first sight. She planned to pick out one for her son's friend, Ning Chen, as well.
Ning Yao just couldn't figure out Ning Chen's temperament and didn't know what kind of person he liked.
After thinking for a moment, Ning Yao took it upon herself to choose a deep black shirt that was the complete opposite of the snow-white one, with a small metal axe on the cuff.
Finally, I chose a light blue shirt for boys, with a candy on the cuff and a bow tie on the collar. It was incredibly cute.
Holding the clothes, Ning Yao walked to the counter and said with a smile, "Boss, I want these three."
The boss was a middle-aged man, looking to be around forty or fifty years old, with a hideous scar on his face that was rather frightening.
Ning Yao was caught off guard and startled by the boss's appearance. She involuntarily took a step back and gasped.
Ning Moran and Ning Chen felt a sudden tightness in their hearts and involuntarily took a step forward, but then stopped abruptly after hearing Ning Yao's words.
"I'm sorry, I was rude." Ning Yao shouldn't have shown a surprised expression; such a look would probably hurt the man in front of her.
She sincerely apologized and decided to buy two more pieces of clothing.
The boss didn't seem to care, waving his hand with a smile. However, his smile was rather eerie, and it would have been better if he hadn't smiled at all.
"I'm used to it, it's fine." The boss's voice was hoarse, which was unpleasant to listen to, but he had a very good personality.
Ning Yao suddenly realized that perhaps the poor business was not because the clothes were bad, but because of the boss's appearance.
Ultimately, there are far too many people in today's society who judge others by their appearance.
When paying, she glanced thoughtfully at the owner's identification on the counter, which read "Fan Xuewen".
After class, Dog Leg No. 1 went shopping with his classmates and happened to run into two handsome guys, Luo Xiyao and Ning Chen and Ning Moran.
She had already met Ning Moran and Ning Chen before, and although she was still amazed, she was much more immune to visual shock than the female classmates who saw Ning Chen and Ning Moran for the first time.
The female classmate next to her was shaking her arm almost frantically, gesturing for her to look at the handsome guy.
But No. 1 was curious: given Luo Xiyao and Ning Moran's wealth, why would they be shopping in such a back alley?
After taking two more steps, she suddenly understood, even though she had been racking her brains for a long time.
Luo Xiyao isn't here to buy anything; she's here to buy this whole street!
"Why is Luo Xiyao shopping in a place like this? Didn't I hear she's being kept by a sugar daddy?" the female classmate muttered to herself, quite puzzled.
They weren't classmates and hadn't witnessed the underwater clam shell scene firsthand, so they had no idea how wealthy Ning Yao was.
"Yeah, she always says she's rich, but I bet it's all fake, just bragging."
At this moment, Number 1 also played a trick and did not intend to explain Luo Xiyao's family background. Of course, the fewer people who knew about such a wealthy young lady, the better, so that she could take advantage of the situation.
"Sigh, there are so many vain people these days." The female classmate shrugged, not taking it to heart.
But his gaze seemed glued to Ning Moran and Ning Chen, and he couldn't tear it away.
"Isn't Luo Xiyao your classmate? Why don't you go up and say hello?" The female classmate wanted to show her face in front of the handsome guy.
The story of a prince falling in love with Cinderella isn't entirely impossible in real life.
What if that handsome guy takes a liking to her? Wouldn't she be able to have a passionate and exciting romance?
"Let's not go. They're on a date. Why should we join in?" Number 1 had no intention of being a matchmaker for the female classmate and declined perfunctorily.
"It doesn't look like a date. Who goes on a date with two handsome guys? I think they're just ordinary friends." Of course, the female classmate wouldn't admit that Luo Xiyao had such a handsome boyfriend.
"Luo Xiyao is difficult to get along with. If you want to get to know her, you can go by yourself. I'm not going." Number 1 turned his back on the female classmate and left.
