Pampered Poisonous Royal Wife-Chapter 2078 - 556: The Evening Gown Incident (10x Release)
"Are you here to reserve a wedding dress or to take wedding photos?" the petite female clerk asked softly. Meanwhile, her gaze subtly swept across everyone’s faces and finally settled on An Yiqing and Gu Yelin. Her professional instinct told her that these two must be the main characters.
"We want to look at wedding photos. This couple is getting married. Do you have any recommendations?" Chen Fang said with a smile.
The female clerk nodded, once again professionally assessing An Yiqing and Gu Yelin’s appearances, her eyes revealing amazement.
Quickly, she withdrew her gaze and smiled as she guided them into the store. 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶
"Both of you are rare beauties with great figures; you can perfectly fit various styles of wedding photos. But judging by your temperaments, you might not be interested in luxury or overly vibrant styles. I have two recommendations for you."
Saying this, she took out two exquisite gift boxes from the shelf.
"These two sets are the studio’s latest wedding photography themes. One is called ’Starry Spring Water,’ and the other is ’Ink and Style.’ The ’Starry Spring Water’ theme is mainly based on blue, white, and yellow hues with an artistic, fresh style, popular among young people today. On the other hand, ’Ink and Style’ leans towards ancient charm, using black, white, and red ink tones, coupled with unique dyeing techniques and modern elements—it’s a novel approach. Personally, I think this lady has a graceful appearance in her white dress, with the unique oriental beauty temperament; ’Ink and Style’ suits her better."
Chen Fang and Kong Shi exchanged a glance. Indeed, the level of this studio’s staff was quite good.
"Xiao Qing, Lao San, you two, take a look."
An Yiqing took the ’Ink and Style’ themed magazine, and upon opening it, she was greeted by the elegant beauty of bridges and flowing waters in the Water Town style. On the bridge stood a woman in a white cheongsam wedding dress, holding a red oil-paper umbrella and gazing shallowly in the rain. In the distance, a man in a white long shirt appeared faintly in the misty beauty, his smirk enchanting the realm.
"This one."
Decision made.
Next was choosing the attire needed for the photoshoot. A wedding dress was essential, along with six other outfits. Moreover, most ’Ink and Style’ shoot locations are outdoors with many places not in Xuandu City. An Yiqing and Gu Yelin were both quite busy. To coordinate with the studio’s schedule, they needed to plan well.
"Xiao Qing, come on, let’s check out the outfits." Chen Fang stood up. "Lao San, you come too."
Led by the clerk, Kong Shi, Chen Fang, Gu Yelin, and An Yiqing went to the clothing area. Meanwhile, Old Lady An sat on the sofa, whispering with Gu Tingting.
The studio was very quiet, with only occasional whispers from clerks or customers, and a melodious tune echoing in the room, creating a sense of peace.
At this moment, the door was pushed open, the sound of high heels clacking accompanied by a somewhat sharp shout entered everyone’s ears.
"Where’s Xiao Yu? Get out here for me!"
Everyone frowned and looked over. At the door stood a tall woman with long hair and a handsome man; she looked at the studio with a high and mighty demeanor.
A clerk who was free greeted them with a smile.
"Welcome, are you here to reserve a wedding dress or for wedding photos?"
The tall woman glanced over the clerk disdainfully and strode in, her ten-centimeter heels clicking loudly.
"I’m looking for your clerk, Xiao Yu. My mom tried a dress here a few days ago, and I’m here to pay today."
"Alright, please wait a moment."
With that, the clerk poured a cup of coffee for the couple and then went to the clothing area.
Soon enough, the same female clerk who had just attended An Yiqing came out.
"Oh, it’s Miss Gao and Mr. Qi. Are you here today for?" Xiao Yu asked politely, smiling.
"The dress my mom tried on the other day, I want it!" The tall woman raised her chin and placed her diamond-encrusted bag on the table with arrogance.
Xiao Yu smiled and bowed a little, her tone apologetic. "I’m very sorry, Miss Gao, that dress is a limited edition and has just been reserved by a customer."
"What?!" Miss Gao’s eyebrows shot up. "My mom was interested in that dress. How could you sell it to someone else!"
"I’m very sorry. As there was no reservation that day, according to store policy, the dress was still available for sale." Xiao Yu remained polite yet firm.
Miss Gao raised her eyebrows high, stomping in anger, then turned to the man beside her to whine, "Honey, my mom’s dress is gone! I don’t care; I want that one!" Saying this, she clutched the man’s arm and shook it vigorously. His arm conveniently brushed against her chest, causing him to feel impulsive.
He coughed lightly and looked at Xiao Yu with authority, "You said the dress was reserved by a customer but not fully paid yet?"
Xiao Yu paused, "Yes, Mr. Qi. However, the store’s policy states that after a deposit is paid, the dress cannot be resold. Only if the reserving customer cancels the deposit can the dress be resold. I’m sorry. You can look at other dresses; several new ones have just arrived and they are quite beautiful."
The man frowned, somewhat annoyed, "What’s with you people? My mother-in-law clearly loved that dress, and you should’ve held it for her. Why sell it to someone else? Where’s the person who reserved it? I want to talk to them!"
Xiao Yu was in a bit of a bind but still smiled as she said, "Sorry, we can’t disclose other customers’ privacy."
Repeated refusals made the man completely furious. He grabbed the cup of water on the table and slammed it down heavily, causing a loud crash and splashing water everywhere. Xiao Yu’s white shirt was splattered all over with water.
"You sold the dress my mother-in-law liked to someone else and won’t tell me who that person is! Is your studio not interested in making money? No vision at all. And a mere clerk dares to act arrogant in front of me? Where’s the boss? Where’s your boss? Get him out here!"
Xiao Yu was startled by the loud noise but still maintained her smile. "I’m terribly sorry, sir, for the inconvenience, that’s my fault. However, store policy indeed does not allow us to disclose other customers’ privacy. Even if the boss were here, we’d still follow the protocol."
