The two finished breakfast.
Yan Dongxu called Xu Lu, asking her to prepare for the donation to build a school.
At this time, Luo Yi hadn't fully woken up yet, mumbling a few responses.
"Alright, I got it. I have a few good business opportunities here, I'll send them to you later for your consideration."
Last night, Xu Lu had been sorting through suitable business opportunities for him, working until very late.
Yan Dongxu didn't disturb Xu Lu after learning about it.
Because Xu Lu was about the same height as Luo Yi, he had originally planned for Xu Lu to bring over shoes and clothes that Luo Yi could wear. Then they could go to the mall together.
Now it seemed they could only go directly to the mall.
Since there were no women's shoes at his home, Luo Yi could only wear his family's slippers.
Fortunately, they went straight into the mall after getting off the car, so it wasn't too cold.
"I'm sorry, it's just my younger sister and me at home. We don't have shoes for girls your age," Yan Dongxu apologized upon realizing he had embarrassed Luo Yi.
"What are you apologizing for? I should be the one apologizing for bothering you," Luo Yi replied.
Luo Yi didn't feel embarrassed; instead, she found Yan Dongxu very considerate.
As they entered the store, Luo Yi frowned at the prices of the clothes.
"These clothes are too expensive, aren't they? Hundreds of yuan for one piece. With that money, you could buy eggs for the children for a month."
Luo Yi refused to try anything on, finding the clothes too expensive.
"Oh, forget about the clothes then. I won't be able to wear them anyway. I'll just buy a pair of shoes," Luo Yi said.
Yan Dongxu was deeply moved.
Considering Luo Yi had grown up in a well-off family with both her parents being university professors, she was undoubtedly from a privileged background.
After teaching in rural areas for a few years, she couldn't even bear to buy clothes that cost a few hundred yuan.
Her consumption mindset had lowered to the point where she only needed the basics for survival.
"Aren't you going back to see your parents later?" Yan Dongxu asked. "You need to dress decently, or they'll worry and won't let you leave."
Yan Dongxu was very persuasive, hitting Luo Yi's soft spot.
"Okay, but consider this money as borrowed from you," Luo Yi insisted firmly.
"Alright, alright! Hurry up and try on some clothes. Try a few stores around here. Buy a few more items," Yan Dongxu urged. "You're staying in Jiangning City for at least a week, right? You'll need clothes to change into."
Yan Dongxu picked out a few items for Luo Yi to try on.
Being beautiful is every girl's nature.
After changing into new clothes, Luo Yi's whole demeanor changed.
Confidence radiated from her eyes once again.
Yan Dongxu seemed to see the untouched Luo Yi, untouched by wind and sun.
That kind of Luo Yi's temperament and appearance were no less than those of a female celebrity.
"Miss, this outfit suits you so well. It's beautiful," the female salesperson exclaimed after seeing Luo Yi in her new clothes.
"Just this outfit, and pick out a few more," Yan Dongxu instructed the clerk to pack up the same outfit.
The female clerk recognized Yan Dongxu, but out of professional ethics, she didn't show too much excitement. However, her envy towards Luo Yi was hard to conceal.
Luo Yi tried on several outfits in a row, each one looking stunning on her.
It could be said that Luo Yi was a born clothes hanger.
"Pack them all," Yan Dongxu said.
"Oh, I'm buying too much. It'll take me a long time to pay it all back," Luo Yi frowned.
"You don't have to pay it back. Don't feel pressured," Yan Dongxu assured her. "Today's livestream income is enough for you to buy clothes."
"Really?"
"Of course! Why would I lie to you!"
Yan Dongxu tried to ease Luo Yi's psychological burden.
He was not stingy, though not exactly lavish either.
But when it came time to pay, he didn't bat an eyelid, showing a hint of generosity.
"You go for a beauty treatment, I'll go buy a phone. We'll livestream later."
Yan Dongxu dragged Luo Yi into the beauty salon for a package deal.
And he paid upfront to prevent Luo Yi from thinking he was a beauty salon tout.
"What are you doing! I'm not doing it, it's just wasting money!"
Luo Yi grumbled, genuinely irritated this time.
"Meeting the parents, meeting the parents. They'd be heartbroken seeing your face like this."
Yan Dongxu found this trick to be foolproof.
Luo Yi reluctantly agreed. She least wanted to disappoint her parents.
Yan Dongxu rushed off to buy a phone and came back to start livestreaming beside Luo Yi.
"Hey everyone, I'm back again!"
【You finally started streaming!】
【Where did we leave off?】
【Where's Teacher Luo?】
【Where are you guys?】
...
The viewers kept asking.
Yan Dongxu chuckled, "Just accompanied Teacher Luo to buy clothes, now she's getting a facial."
"I won't let you see Teacher Luo yet, anticipate her transformation."
【Hehe, playing mysterious, huh? I like it!】
【I bet Teacher Luo is stunning, with that good foundation.】
【Should I say it? You're really lucky, dude.】
【Why don't you get a facial too? You're a celebrity now.】
...
"I'm not getting one, my old face has never been cared for."
"If we're talking about care, it's probably just washing my face with a five-yuan soap every day."
Pfft!
The beautician doing Luo Yi's facial burst into laughter, blushing and apologizing immediately.
【Hahaha, even the beautician got tickled by you.】
【You're really shameless, blurting everything out.】
【You earn so much money but won't spend it on yourself?】
【Hurry up and get the facial! I'll send you gifts!】
"OMG! Thanks to Sister MeowMeow for the hundred super rockets."
"Sister MeowMeow, you're back again!"
Yan Dongxu was thrilled to see his old acquaintance.
【Ah, one's own man, what else can you do besides spoiling him?】
Sister MeowMeow's golden barrage scrolled across the screen.
【Hahaha, Meow Queen is mighty.】
【Even if you soar high, you're still just a man in Meow Queen's backyard.】
【Meow Queen is checking in, you better behave, dude.】
...
【Are you at Yibi Beauty Salon?】
Meow Queen's golden barrage fluttered again.
"Yeah, how did you know?"
Yan Dongxu was astonished.
Before long, the manager suddenly knocked and entered.
"Sorry to disturb Mr. Yan and Ms. Luo, please follow us to the VVVIP suite."
"We'll provide you with our top-notch skincare service. The previous expenses have been refunded."
Yan Dongxu was baffled, "What's going on?"
"Well, Mr. Yan, our director called, instructing us to provide you with complimentary skincare service and two lifetime free membership cards," the manager said warmly.
【Stop dawdling, go!】
"Meow Queen, was this your doing?"
【Mhmm!】
"Thank you, Meow Queen!"
Yan Dongxu led Luo Yi to enjoy a more upscale service.
The barrage in the livestream room exploded.
【Wow, Meow Queen seems to have quite the background.】
【Yibai should be the beauty institution under a listed company, right?】
【So Meow Queen is indeed a wealthy lady.】
【Meow Queen, are you still in need of a boyfriend?】
...
Several hours later, Yan Dongxu looked at himself in the mirror and instantly felt several years younger.
His youthful face could practically squeeze out water.
"It's really amazing. No wonder women love to spend money here," he couldn't help but exclaim.
He then turned the camera towards Luo Yi.
【No way, is this Teacher Luo?】
【Are you sure she's not a goddess descended to earth?】
【So stunning!】
【Teacher Luo, can I come to support your teaching?】
【I also want to go. Whether or not I'm with you doesn't matter; I just want to teach the children about culture.】
