Chapter 542: The Bottom Line and the Pursuit
In the largest shopping mall in Irkutsk, Sergei and his young assistant Zhenia were in the fur shop to pick out the coats I needed for the ceremony.
I tried a few pieces, and I felt that the upper body effect was okay, but I didn't know which one to buy.
Looking at Sergey, who was with me and did not show any impatience with me to buy clothes, I was a little embarrassed. I said right, if only Katya were here, she would have chosen one of them for me, so we wouldn't have to waste so much time.
Sergey smiled, as always, I couldn't really see what he was thinking.
We came to an ultra-luxury boutique fur shop.
As soon as I entered the door, three shopping guides greeted me.
I explained to them my intentions, and the shopping guide happily showed me their products.
I looked back at Sergey, who did not follow, but stared at a mink coat in the glass display in the center of the hall.
The shopping guide walked over and introduced to him with a smile:
This is the latest design of the master of the world's most famous fur brand, a total of three pieces, touring in Russia.
The two have already been bought by a famous singer and a businessman during a touring exhibition in Moscow, and now this one is left. In Irkutsk, too, only their shops are eligible to display this work. After a few days, it was sent to Vladivostok.
Hearing his introduction, Genia and I also stepped forward curiously to look at the coat.
This is a pure natural white mink coat, the style is both elegant and noble and simple and fashionable, but it can be seen that the designer's ingenuity is good.
The coat is displayed with a black abstract model, allowing the viewer to clearly see the luxury of the material and the craftsmanship of the garment itself.
The spotlights around it illuminate the nobility and domineering spirit of the costume itself.
- "It's so beautiful! "Genia and I were both amazed.
- "Can you try it?" Sergey asked.
- "Of course! Hearing this, all the clerks became busy as if they had received a holy decree, and they carefully removed her from the glass cover.
Sergey motioned for me to put it on and try it on. I was surprised that I didn't react.
- "Linna! "Genia's shouts brought me back to my senses. I stretched out my hand and asked the salesperson to put the coat on me.
I lowered my head, and the shiny tips of the hair on my chest were faintly visible at the end of the dazzling gold. I stroked it like through the softest silk, fluffy and melt-in-your-mouth marshmallows.
I walked over to the full-length mirror to take a closer look at its upper body effect. To be honest, the coat fits like it was made for me.
I looked at Sergei, and he looked it up and down, looking very satisfied.
The shopping guides and sales staff are even more smiling. Super thumbs up on how well I wore it.
- "You said there are three, right?" Sergey asked.
- "Yes, there are three works by this master on display in Russia, but the other two, one black and the other brown, are specially designed and will never be the same in style, you can rest assured!" The shopping guide explained, and showed Sergei the picture of the product to verify his words.
- "The style of this piece is specially designed according to the color and texture of the fur and the temperament she conveys. You see, this coat color mink is extremely rare, this is definitely a one-of-a-kind product, you can rest assured! The salesman said to me.
I smiled at her and looked down at the price tag.
- "This is the dollar price?" I asked, horrified.
The salesman smiled and acquiesced.
I took off my clothes and ran to Sergey, stopped the credit card he took out with my hand, and said:
- "Sergey, you know what? Here they are priced in dollars, not rubles! ”
- "Uh-huh. Sergei agreed.
I pulled Sergei aside, whispered;
- "I know I'm going to the presidential celebration with you, but even so, I'm not the president's wife, let alone the singer, so I really don't need to be so high-profile!" It's enough to deal with the past, you really have to spend so much money? ”
- "I didn't think much of it, I just thought it was the best fit for you to wear." Sergei smiled and handed the credit to the shopping guide.
Looking at the coat that Zhenia had packed from the salesman, I was not only not so happy but also felt heavy in my heart.
Sergei's approach suddenly reminded me of Andrey.
It turns out that the two of them have one thing in common, that is, they want the best in everything.
This may be common to most people, but it doesn't include me!
I reflected on myself, as if I had never sought the best. Maybe that's why my bottom line demands more than the average person.
For example, my requirements for my outfit for this celebration are that as long as I don't break the bottom line and don't let others feel that I am dressed inappropriately, it will be over, and as for whether I can stand out from the crowd, I really don't want to be in the spotlight.
Sergei looked at me thoughtfully, smiled and said:
- "Linna, I suppose if I bought Katya this dress, she would have jumped up with joy, but you don't look very happy?" I wonder how you two could be friends? ”
Hearing this, Genia also laughed. I found that this Zhenia's personality is somewhat like Sergei, he is either smiling or calm, and he does not express himself easily.
At this moment, if Anton was here, he might not have said much about Katya.
- "What's wrong with us being friends?" If Katya is happy, I'd like to give her this coat! I said with some provocation.
- "Well, well, this dress is yours, and it's your freedom to give it to whomever you want. But! Sergei gave me a sly look.
- "But what? I asked
- "If Katya dares to wear it in front of me, see how I clean her up!" Sergey said.
- "You're going to fire her again?" I asked, squinting my eyes
- "I can't be expelled, but I can deduct her salary until the amount of this dress is deducted." Sergei also looked at me defiantly after speaking.
- "You? You're a bully! I shouted.
- "Haha...... Linna, no matter how warm that coat is, you don't wear it now, where did you get so angry? Sergey laughed.
- "You!? "I looked at the smug Sergei and I didn't know what to say.
- "Okay, it's me who didn't think this coat would have so much energy, and Lina gets angry when she thinks of it...... However, I think the most pitiful thing now is Genia, is he carrying it to be damaged by radiation?
Well, let's go get some ice cream and put the fire out of the fire for both of you. Sergey said.
Sergei's words made me and Genia laugh, and I didn't bother with the coat anymore.
We went to the ice cream stand in front of the supermarket, and Genia went to buy ice cream.
I looked at the crowd of people coming and going at the entrance of the supermarket, and suddenly, the figure of a little girl caught my eye.
