Chapter 680
: Drama Queen Fors!
"This future magician has always been quite casual and very different in life."
"But speaking of which, Miss Magician is also a good breakthrough point."
After guessing the truth of the matter, Chu Yang naturally wouldn't mind Miss Xiu's seemingly awkward request.
"Then let's meet at this cafe at 10pm."
Chu Yang said lightly.
"No problem, I will definitely bring her here on time, and we will cover the lunch expenses."
Miss Hugh spoke hurriedly.
After breakfast, the two officially parted ways.
Walking on the street, Chu Yang suddenly felt that his original rental house should be replaced in time.
Aside from the fact that he didn't feel very safe there, it was more because he needed a more comfortable living environment.
But apart from that, the first thing he needs should be a set of clothes that are high-end enough.
"Although the quality of Elinda's store is average and most of its products are sold to the general public, it has been open for many years and should have some hidden treasures."
After a while, Chu Yang finally decided to visit Elinda and his father first.
If it really costs a lot of money, he hopes that the profits will flow into the pockets of his friends.
After deciding on the destination in his mind, Chu Yang quickly quickened his pace.
When he just saw the store of Elinda's family from afar, he saw Elinda's father respectfully escorting a well-dressed gentleman out of the door.
Elinda's father even opened the door of the carriage parked on the side of the road himself, with a flattering smile on his face, and personally helped the gentleman get into the carriage.
Finally, he stood at the door of the shop again, looking at the carriage from afar until it completely disappeared around the corner of the street. Only then did he return to his shop with a sense of loss.
"It seems that this gentleman is not a simple person. Since such a person comes to Elinda's store to buy clothes, there must be good things here."
"It seems that my eye sockets are too shallow."
Chu Yang shook his head somewhat self-deprecatingly. He had a feeling that he should be able to buy clothes successfully in Elena's family shop.
After stepping into the store, he saw Elinda sitting at the counter, writing and drawing constantly, holding a special measuring tool similar to a ruler in her hand.
Then, seeing that there were no other customers in the store, Chu Yang walked lightly to the counter and slapped it hard.
Elinda was frightened at the first moment. She raised her head with some anger and saw Chu Yang's appearance clearly, but her anger suddenly turned into laughter.
"How dare you come to see me? It was because of you that I stayed at home for a whole month last time."
"Tell me, how many meals are you going to give me as compensation?"
Elinda crossed her arms across her chest, and the massive mountain stood out.
Chu Yang coughed twice, turned his eyes away and said, "Your father wouldn't even let you go to school, would he?"
"Because the club I want to join is held at school, and that weird idiot teacher you mentioned is also a member of the school, so obviously my father doesn't agree with me going to school at all."
Elinda spread her hands helplessly, and then asked to summarize the purpose of today's visit.
"I found a good job, so this time I bought a nice suit."
When she heard Chu Yang emphasize the word "high-end", Elinda's eyes widened.
"Don't you always say that the clothing store at home is not high-end enough? Why did you come here to buy something today?"
"Have you come to your senses?"
Elinda couldn't help but look around Chu Yang's body in a funny way.
"I was a little ignorant before, but now I understand how great your family's clothing store, which has been passed down for hundreds of years, is."
Chu Yang couldn't help but praise him.
In fact, this wrong impression was generated by the predecessor and has little to do with him, the later one.
"You're sensible, but a set of formal clothes that are high-end enough will cost at least a hundred pounds. You've just started working, are you sure you want to invest that much?"
Elinda had already started thinking of various ways to persuade Chu Yang to give up this idea.
"Don't worry, my employer this time is the famous detective and scholar Mr. Manhattan."
"He offered me a very generous salary and even gave me an advance so that I could buy the right costumes."
Chu Yang blurted out the response he had already thought of.
"So it's Mr. Manhattan? This gentleman is indeed an important person, but how did he fall in love with you?"
There was a look of disgust in Elinda's eyes.
"Alinda, don't talk nonsense. As long as Chu Yang can stay with Mr. Manhattan for a long time, he will definitely have a bright future."
Elinda's father came out from the house at the back with a smile on his face.
"Hello, Mr. Holmes. I also hope that as you said, I will have a bright future in the future."
Chu Yang smiled and spread his hands.
"Don't be anxious. As long as you can keep learning, it is an opportunity to grow stronger."
"I once worked in a clothing store owned by a respectable gentleman, and I started out as his assistant."
"It took me ten years to accumulate connections and knowledge in the relevant industry."
“Finally, I came back here and continued to expand the small clothing store passed down by my father to its current size.”
"Try hard, young man, you can do it."
Holmes patted the outgoing shoulder comfortingly.
However, Chu Yang's thoughts kept reminiscing about the gentleman he had just met at the door.
Considering the respect Holmes expressed when speaking at this moment, it is obvious that the gentleman just now was most likely the benefactor who changed his destiny.
"Come to think of it, I think the gentleman just now looks a bit like you?"
"Do you think it's because the gentleman is a long-lost relative of yours?"
Elinda on the side suddenly began to observe Chu Yang's appearance carefully.
"How can it be such a coincidence? There are too many people in the world, there will always be people who look similar."
"I don't want to be an annoying guy who comes to look for relatives and climbs the social ladder."
Chu Yang waved his hand nonchalantly.
Now he just wanted to concentrate on slowly severing all previous ties with this body.
It is absolutely impossible to take the initiative to establish a new relationship.
However, this severance of relations needs to be gradual, and cannot be cut off abruptly.
This is the most eye-catching. Then Chu Yang and Alinda and her daughter began to discuss the high-end clothing.
Although Chu Yang had already been paid the cost price, he still ended up spending a full eighty pounds before he finally bought a set of high-end enough clothing.
When Chu Yang changed his clothes and walked out from behind the house, the little girl Elinda's eyes lit up.
She couldn't help but move her legs and ran to Chu Yang's side, praising him sincerely.
"Oh my god, this outfit really suits you. It not only conceals your previous melancholy, but also adds a touch of bookish temperament to you."
"I now feel like you are a successful university scholar."
Even Holmes couldn't help but nodded in agreement, and walked around Chu Yang several times before saying:
"What a handsome guy!"
But Chu Yang noticed that Holmes' eyes were more focused on the clothes he was wearing.
But in any case, he was very grateful to Holmes for the cost price he gave.
In the end, Chu Yang and Elinda agreed on a rather vague dinner time, then said goodbye and left.
In order to save time, Chu Yang even gritted his teeth and took a carriage to his destination.
But as soon as he left the carriage, he immediately felt a series of undisguised evil gazes cast from all around him.
"It seems that this dress is still a bit too high-profile. I will put it in the bottom of the box after today."
Chu Yang rubbed his chin slightly and made up his mind.
After all, the area where he and Miss Xiu agreed to meet at the coffee shop was a complete gangster paradise.
Ordinary rich people would never set foot here easily unless they have enough protection forces around them.
The reason why my predecessor rented a house here was because he had no other choice. After all, he was short of money.
With this in mind, Chu Yang walked towards the coffee shop and inadvertently took out the revolver hidden in his waist.
In an instant, the dense malice around him was immediately alleviated a lot.
It wasn't until he pushed open the door of the cafe and saw Miss Xiu that he finally felt relieved.
After all, a Sequence Nine Reader really doesn't have much combat power, but it's different for Miss Xiu as an arbitrator.
Not to mention that Miss Xiu herself is a well-trained female knight who is extremely proficient in both mounted and dismounted combat techniques. She is definitely not someone that ordinary gang members would dare to mess with.
This is also the real reason why she has been committed to helping blue-collar workers solve various problems and has been able to survive safely until now.
Chu Yang sat next to Miss Xiu, which immediately caused Miss Xiu to turn her head and look at him. Then a look of surprise appeared in her eyes.
"Chu Yang, why are you dressed so formally? Didn't those gangsters give you any trouble on the way?"
Miss Xiu couldn't help but frowning at the end of her speech.
She could even imagine how many malicious looks Chu Yang had received along the way.
"I just want to meet your friend in a better state."
Chu Yang deliberately emphasized the word "friend" and specifically guided Miss Xiu's imagination in a fixed direction.
As expected, Miss Xiu suddenly realized and said, "This is something I really didn't consider this time. I should have chosen a better place, so that maybe your first meeting can end perfectly."
"But it's not a big deal. My friend is a carefree person and he won't care about these details."
"After the meal, I will take you back to Mr. Manha."
Chu Yang was quite speechless after hearing this. It was obvious that Miss Xiu treated him as a completely powerless scholar.
But why didn't he remember at all that his marksmanship had become quite good?
While Chu Yang and Miss Xiu were chatting animatedly, a lady had already been sitting in a corner of the restaurant, watching the scene in front of her with a joking look.
Obviously, she had already heard the entire conversation between the two.
When the lady stood beside Miss Xiu with a smile on her face, the teasing in her eyes became more obvious.
Fortunately, Miss Xiu was no longer surprised by her best friend's behavior.
"Chu Yang, this is my best friend, best friend, and roommate Forsi."
Miss Xiu stood up and introduced herself very solemnly.
At this moment, Miss Fors was dressed gorgeously yet elegantly.
With her unique door ability, she is not afraid of being targeted by the gangs in the area.
Although her noble temperament and extremely delicate face are very eye-catching.
But it is also because of this that she has a special magnetic field that many men are afraid of.
"Hello, Miss Fors, it's an honor to meet you."
Chu Yang had long been aware of the lazy nature of Miss Fors, and had long since disenchanted her, so his behavior at this moment was quite well-reasoned.
"It turns out that Mr. Chu Yang is a true gentleman. No wonder my friend has been thinking about him all the time."
"Since you are Xio's friend, then we will be friends from now on. There is no need to be so restrained. You can just call me Fors."
Miss Fors smiled and stretched out her right hand.
Chu Yang also stretched out his right hand and shook it gently, and then the three of them took their seats.
Chu Yang did not beat around the bush and immediately got straight to the point:
"I heard from Miss Xiu that you wanted to see me, but I wonder what it is for?"
Hearing this, Fors was suddenly stunned. She smiled helplessly and said:
"He is indeed one of the few men recognized by Xio. He is so decisive and efficient."
She was just being polite, but who would have thought Chu Yang took it seriously.
"This is actually quite good, as it allows us to do other things efficiently."
Chu Yang replied with a smile. He didn't think there was anything wrong with Miss Xiu's style of doing things.
So after spending some time together, he had already discovered that he had been imitating Miss Xiu inadvertently.
"That's true, but I didn't expect you wouldn't greet me first before getting down to business."
Fors couldn't help but shook her head.
A beautiful lady like her will have many men trying to talk to her wherever she goes.
She had already gotten used to this kind of treatment.
Who would have thought that the Chu Yang I met for the first time today would be such an alternative.
When she thought about it carefully, she realized that her feelings at this moment were exactly the same as when she first met Xio.
This made her involuntarily utter the same exclamation as Chu Yang and Miss Xiu. (End of this chapter)
