Chapter 399 Dogs look down on people
Chen Le could also tell that Bai Xiaomi wasn't in a good mood, and was about to suggest, "Maybe we should just forget about it."
But before he could speak, Bai Xiaomi said with a smile,
"Director Chen, shall we go?"
Chen Le opened his mouth, but in the end, he was too embarrassed to refuse, so he handed the car keys to Bai Zhi.
"You drive."
Bai Zhi took the car keys, while Bai Xiaomi took the initiative to sit in the passenger seat, acting as a guide for Chen Le and Su Xi.
The group of four, guided by Bai Xiaomi, headed straight for the most famous suit shop in the port city.
On the way, Bai Xiaomi glanced at Chen Le through the rearview mirror and asked curiously,
"Why did Director Chen suddenly decide to order formal attire?"
Chen Le sat in the back seat, reached out and pulled Su Xi into his arms, casually explaining,
There's a banquet this weekend.
"I see,"
As she spoke, Bai Xiaomi pointed ahead and said,
"Director Chen, we've arrived at the store."
Upon hearing this, Chen Le looked up and saw a rather large suit shop not far away. The signboard read "Hong Kong City Suit Shop" and had a classic and elegant feel to it.
Bai Zhi parked the car, and Chen Le and Su Xi followed Bai Xiaomi out of the car and into the suit store.
Bai Zhi didn't follow them inside. After all, she was just a bodyguard, and this kind of occasion wasn't suitable for her to appear.
She stood at the store entrance, from where she could see what was happening inside the suit store, so she could rush in immediately if there was any danger.
Chen Le and Su Xi followed Bai Xiaomi into the suit store.
It must be said that this suit store is indeed quite large, with a wide variety of clothes hanging on racks, and there seem to be quite a few styles.
However, there weren't many customers in the store. Only one woman, who looked quite pregnant, was sitting behind the cashier playing on her phone. When she heard the noise, she looked up at Chen Le and his two companions.
The woman first glanced at Bai Xiaomi, who was wearing pajamas and a nightcap, a hint of disdain flashing in her eyes.
Then, he glanced at Chen Le and Su Xi before standing up and looking the three of them up and down.
He asked in a cold tone,
"Want a custom-made suit?"
Chen Le nodded. Seeing this, the woman pointed to the side.
"I filled in the dimensions myself."
The woman's attitude was very cold, and her tone was full of arrogance.
Chen Le didn't mind and said to the woman,
"I'm not really sure about my size."
The woman rolled her eyes upon hearing this.
"You've got so much to do. Tell me first, what price range of suit are you looking to buy?"
"Our store has a rule that not just anyone can meet our designers."
Upon hearing this, Chen Le was taken aback.
What kind of bullshit rule is this?
Chen Le had at least had suits custom-made in mainland China. Although they weren't from big brands, they always took measurements first, then chose the style and fabric, and only then discussed the price.
Why did the process turn around at this store?
Chen Le was somewhat displeased, but his expression remained unchanged.
"Price doesn't matter, what's the most expensive one you have here?"
Upon hearing this, the woman looked Chen Le up and down again.
His face was full of suspicion.
Chen Le's outfit looks very ordinary, with no designer brands on him. He doesn't look like someone who can afford an expensive suit.
"The most expensive suit in our store costs over 100,000 yuan. Can you afford it?"
The woman looked at Chen Le, her tone full of doubt.
Before Chen Le could speak, Bai Xiaomi, who was standing to the side, became unhappy.
"Hey, what do you mean?"
The woman rolled her eyes upon hearing this.
"If you don't have money, then get out of here and don't affect our business."
"you!"
Bai Xiaomi was furious upon hearing this.
Do you know who this is?
"Who knows who he is? Who cares who he is? If you don't have money, get the hell out of here!"
The woman curled her lip and said disdainfully.
"You...you snobbish bastard!"
Bai Xiaomi was so angry that she couldn't speak.
Seeing this, Chen Le reached out and patted her shoulder.
Bai Xiaomi took a deep breath, finally calming herself down.
She looked at the woman and said, word by word,
"With your attitude, if you don't want to come, then don't come. Do you really think you're the only suit shop in Hong Kong?"
After saying that, Bai Xiaomi pulled Chen Le and Su Xi to leave.
"Tch, what are you pretending for? You're broke but you're trying to get a custom-made suit? Get lost and stop interfering with our business!"
The woman watched Bai Xiaomi and the other two walk away, still relentlessly mocking them.
Upon hearing this, Bai Xiaomi paused in her tracks, trembling with anger.
Chen Le patted her hand.
"Forget it, it's not worth getting angry with someone like that."
Just then, an elderly gentleman with gray hair, wearing overalls and reading glasses, came out of the store carrying a soft measuring tape.
He glanced at Chen Le, then froze on the spot.
Then, he grabbed Chen Le and asked excitedly,
"You, you're Director Chen Le?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Le nodded.
"it's me."
Upon hearing this, the old gentleman became extremely excited.
"Director Chen, what brings you to our store?"
Before Chen Le could speak, the woman from before was dumbfounded.
She never expected that the ordinary-looking man in front of her was actually Chen Le, the mainland director who had recently become a sensation online!
The woman turned pale with fright at the thought of her earlier attitude.
After all, Chen Le is a big customer of their store!
"Director Chen, are you... are you looking to have a suit custom-made?"
The old man looked at Chen Le with anticipation and asked,
"I'm the owner of this shop and also a designer. If you want a custom-made suit, I can design it for you personally!"
Upon hearing this, Chen Le smiled and shook his head.
"Your store doesn't welcome me."
Upon hearing this, the old man was stunned.
He glanced at the woman beside him instinctively and instantly understood what was going on.
The woman trembled with fear at the thought that she had offended one of the store's biggest clients.
She looked at Chen Le and said with a pleading expression,
"Director Chen, I... I didn't know it was you. Please be magnanimous and don't hold it against me..."
Chen Le ignored her and turned to look at Bai Xiaomi.
"Let's go."
After saying that, Chen Le left the suit store with Bai Xiaomi and Su Xi, leaving the woman standing there dumbfounded, at a loss.
"You idiot!"
Upon seeing this, the old man couldn't help but curse angrily.
"Such a big deal, and you've ruined it all!"
"I...I didn't know he was Chen Le..."
The woman said with a wronged expression.
"Don't you know? What are you good for? You don't even recognize your clients!"
The old man was furious.
"I'm telling you, starting tomorrow, you don't need to come!"
The woman was stunned upon hearing this.
She never imagined that she would lose her job because she offended Chen Le!
"Boss, I...I know I was wrong, please give me another chance..."
