Chapter 483: Why Do You Keep Staring At ?
Ning Xi walked around after leaving History, intending to buy so souvenirs.
She was tired halfway through, so she bought herself so snacks and sat down on one of the long chairs.
Suddenly, she felt soone looking at her.
Ning Xi looked up and saw an untidy beggar staring at her…
It felt really odd to be eating while being stared at, so she then took out a sandwich from the paper bag and gave it to the beggar.
The beggar looked at her, took the sandwich and gobbled it down quickly.
Ning Xi sensed the gaze again, so she looked up and still saw the beggar there…
Ning Xi then realized that he was not staring at her food, but it was more like a judgntal stare assessing her…
Ning Xi was confused. What was she supposed to do? She had even given him sothing to eat, so what was he trying to do?
Ning Xi stopped eating and walked over to him, "Hey, why do you keep staring at ?"
"I’m not staring at you." Ning Xi was surprised that he replied in Chinese. She did not expect him to be a Chinese…
Ning Xi responded in Chinese as well, "You’ve been staring at since just now! Even at this mont!"
The beggar scanned her then replied, "I’m looking at your outfit."
Ning Xi looked at her dress and asked, "What about my outfit?"
The beggar did not even hesitate. "It’s ugly."
Ning Xi was speechless. Even people who had zero fashion sense would never consider this dress as ugly.
"Why don't you tell which part of this dress is ugly?"
Ning Xi was not expecting anything constructive but his reply was out of her expectations, "The embroidery on your dress is a flower-bird thed which cos from the drawing called "Rest" by Lin Fengmian. It’s a good drawing but the background color is too dark. It’d be better if turquoise blue was used. They shouldn't have used silk as well; a softer fabric would have worked better. The worst part is the design around the waist. It’s a misconception that the tighter the waist area, the more can one flaunt their curves. Actually, if it’s a little bit looser, it would have made an enormous difference…"
Ning Xi saw that the beggar comnted excitedly about her outfit.
She looked at her outfit again and ard with the knowledge from his comnts, she thought that his words made sense.
She listened patiently and prompted, "Tell more!"
The beggar continued with a cold tone, "Most importantly, this outfit you’re wearing is a half-made draft! They are deceiving the consurs by putting this on for sale!
Ning Xi looked at the beggar again. "How do you know all these?"
The beggar had really ssy hair that covered most of his face but from his voice, Ning Xi was determined that he should be around 20 odd years of age.
Ning Xi felt sothing was off, this man was young and did not seem to be disabled either, so how did he end up as a beggar on the streets of this foreign country?
