Zhao iyuan’s advertisent for the mother and baby store started airing on TV on October 1st, and because the ad was particularly creative, the response was quite good.
Banners of Xu iyuan’s promotional event on October 3rd were hung at the West District flagship store and the downtown main store, and as the word spread among passersby, the sales at both stores noticeably skyrocketed on the day of the event.
Zhao ii spent the entire morning packing bags without lifting her head or opening her eyes, while the other sales assistants were all so busy that no one had ti to chat with her, serve tea or water, so this ti she really got to experience work life.
After packing for each custor, Zhao ii would greet them with a cheerful smile, saying, "Thank you, and please visit us again."
After saying this for hours, her mouth felt dry, and Zhao ii took advantage of a mont when no one was around to quickly squat under the counter and secretly twist open a bottle of mineral water. She had just taken two sips before she heard a gentle male voice saying, "Hello, I need packing services."
Zhao ii quickly screwed the cap back on, hurriedly stood up from under the counter, and apologized, "I’m sorry, I delayed your ti."
Standing in front of the counter was a young man who looked to be in his early twenties, wearing a light blue short-sleeved T-shirt and dark blue casual shorts, with a gentle smile showing a neat set of white teeth, looking quite handso.
Zhao ii saw him clearly and was slightly stunned, feeling he looked familiar, as if she had seen him sowhere before, but couldn’t recall at the mont.
The young man clearly recognized her, and exclaid in surprise, "Is it really you!"
Now Zhao ii was completely sure that she really had t this person sowhere, even though she still couldn’t rember who he was.
Zhao ii looked at the young man standing in front of her and awkwardly smiled, "Hi."
The young man placed the rchandise he was holding onto the counter, his black curly eyelashes trembling a bit, and asked with a smile in his voice, "Do you rember ?"
Zhao ii thought to herself, nope.
She reached out and scratched the back of her neck, hesitantly saying, "Uh, I can’t recall at the mont, just think you look a bit familiar."
The young man said, "My na is Dong Wenjie, we went to the sa university, a few days ago my friend bumped into you, and I helped you up at that ti."
Zhao ii actually still didn’t have much of a mory, but she faked a realizing expression and warmly smiled, "Ah! So it’s you! What a coincidence, haha!"
Dong Wenjie saw Zhao ii’s guilty-looking smile, curled his lips, and held back the urge to laugh, saying, "Yeah! My friend kept ntioning it, saying he felt pretty sorry for bumping into you in the hallway that day."
Zhao ii was unaware and generously said, "Oh, that matter? I’ve long forgotten about it, it’s no big deal."
Zhao ii efficiently packed the items on the counter and handed them over. Dong Wenjie took them and couldn’t help but ask with a laugh, "Do you usually work during the holidays?"
Work?
Zhao ii was taken aback and said, "Uh, not really, I’m just here to help temporarily."
Dong Wenjie nodded and asked again, "By the way, I don’t know your na yet."
"Zhao ii."
Dong Wenjie picked up the shopping bag on the counter, "Which major are you in?"
Zhao ii: "Mathematics."
Dong Wenjie’s eyes lit up, "Really? I’m in the mathematics school too, how co I haven’t seen you before? Are you a first-year student?"
Zhao ii nodded.
Then more custors ca to have their items packed, Dong Wenjie stepped aside, curled his lips, and said, "Feel free to find if you encounter anything at school."
Zhao ii agreed, "Okay."
After finishing talking, Dong Wenjie left, and Zhao ii got busy again, quickly forgetting about this person and this event in the hustle, without noticing that Dong Wenjie didn’t leave the packaging area imdiately but took out his phone from afar, secretly took a couple of photos of Zhao ii, watched her for a while, and then left the store with his purchases.
Near noon, Zhao ii changed back into her own clothes, greeted the others in the store, and went to the fast-food restaurant diagonally opposite the shop to wait for Peng Hui and Qian Sing.
Qian Sing arrived first, wearing a white T-shirt with Xu iyuan’s picture printed on the front, holding clappers and two loud horns that made a noise when blown.
Qian Sing excitedly said, "These are for later support, ii, which one do you want?"
Zhao ii looked at the clappers and the horns strugglingly, finally choosing the clappers as the tallest from the short ones.
Peng Hui ca over shortly, carrying two shopping bags, and handed them to Zhao ii and Qian Sing: "These are specialties given to my brother-in-law, I brought them for you to taste."
Zhao ii was sowhat curious about Peng Rui and asked, "Your sister is married?"
Peng Hui nodded, "Yeah, she got married two years ago."
Zhao ii asked, "What does your brother-in-law do?"
Peng Hui said: "He sells cars, he’s a sales manager at a shop."
Zhao ii softly said, "Oh," and couldn’t help asking, "Do you rember Qu Chaozong?"
Peng Hui was taken aback, "Who?"
Zhao ii reminded, "That’s Brother Chao."
"Ah!" Peng Hui realized, "You an my sister’s ex-boyfriend right? I wasn’t very familiar with him, haven’t had any deep impressions for a long ti."
When Peng Rui was dating Qu Chaozong, it was during the busy high school years, and later they both went to university in the provincial capital. Peng Hui only t Qu Chaozong a few tis, didn’t have strong feelings, so she didn’t care much about her sister changing boyfriends.
Before the event started, Zhao ii received a call from Shi Yang. The scene was too crowded, so she didn’t hear clearly what Shi Yang said, but she knew it must be telling her to stay safe, and she just agreed to everything with "yeah, yeah."
Xu iyuan’s celebrity effect had a strong resonance, not only was the venue full, but fans without invitation tickets and onlooking passersby outside the venue were going to the mother and baby store to buy designated amounts of rchandise to exchange for entrance tickets, causing a chain reaction, and the store’s rchandise experienced a peak in sales for a mont. If it weren’t for Qian Sing and Peng Hui coming over, Zhao ii would have wanted to go to the store to help out.
Qian Sing excitedly pulled Zhao ii aside and asked, "Oh my, I’m so nervous! ii, did you ask your brother to help get an autograph?"
Zhao ii reached out to shield her head from the scorching sun, "I told him a long ti ago, don’t worry."
Peng Hui said, "ii, ask your brother how many autographs he got. If there are any extras, I’d say we should sell them right here, one hundred yuan each, do you think her fans would buy it?"
Qian Sing imdiately stared at her, "I won’t sell them, if there are extras, I’ll save them to give to family relatives, my cousin also really likes her!"
