Chapter 56: 056 The Devil's Footsteps
Based on experience, trying on different outfits is exactly the essence of a relaxing shopping trip.
Moreover, being a master of pairing outfits is a widely applicable skill.
One day, even when receiving a Nobel Prize, you won't have to worry about your image.
Thinking about that stage, Li Zheng's mouth started to water.
Just like Liu Xin's second uncle imagining winning the lottery jackpot.
Stop, getting off track.
Just focus on pairing outfits.
Keep 10 coins in reserve.
Ding ding.
As the Game Coins were inserted, Li Zheng's world changed.
[Shopping level increased detected.]
[Relaxation rate limit increased to 20↑.]
[Monthly recovery limit increased to 60 hours↑.]
He rushed out of the fitting room.
Now, every time he glanced at a piece of clothing, he instinctively imagined the colors and styles that would match it.
Putting clothes and pants together, he could easily imagine how they would look on him.
Various body types, skin tones, face shapes, and color combinations were within his grasp.
For example, red + white, with the brightness of red and the freshness of white, gives off a strong summer vibe.
Pearl white and khaki together appear soft and quiet.
In comparison, Li Zheng preferred the combination of deep blue and light blue, which wasn't as heavy as black and could visually streamline the figure.
Whatever, let's get a set first.
Li Zheng quickly put back the previous few pieces and, in less than two minutes, changed into a self-created academic style outfit.
Gray casual trousers + khaki wool V-neck cardigan, with a large-collar white shirt underneath.
In the mirror, he looked like a modern, melancholic scholar.
[Vitality recovery rate: 6.9↑↑↑]
Here it comes!
Sure enough, pairing according to one's own preferences felt more thrilling.
He rushed to Zhang Xiaoke again, smiling with his hands in his pockets.
"!!!" Zhang Xiaoke's mouth was wide open, "Is this... a pre-made outfit from the store?"
"Just casually paired." Li Zheng fixed his hair and said, "Shopping is interesting."
"Is... it... I also picked a few pieces, but I'm torn." Zhang Xiaoke picked up two small sweaters and asked, "There's a class activity tomorrow. I don't want to dress too maturely, but I want to look cute while retaining a student vibe. Which one do you think is better?"
"In terms of style, the left one with a skirt would be good, not too heavy. The right one with pants, stabilizes it." Li Zheng fiddled with the two sweaters and said, "As for the color, this beige one is versatile. The other one needs to be paired with dark colors."
Zhang Xiaoke was stunned for a few seconds, then looked at the two pieces of clothing: "It seems... that's right..."
"Come." Li Zheng rubbed his hands and walked towards the racks further inside, "I remember there's a pair of overalls that would go well with this sweater."
"Is there? Is there?" Zhang Xiaoke licked her lips and followed, as if she smelled a bone.
Soon, Li Zheng paired a cute school-style autumn outfit for Zhang Xiaoke.
White overalls + beige small sweater, with a shirt underneath.
"Wow... this looks pretty good." Zhang Xiaoke swayed in front of the mirror, "I'm kind of tempted to buy it... but I don't have that much budget."
"Don't rush, I just picked a wild set for you." Li Zheng handed over another set of clothes.
"Huh?" Zhang Xiaoke looked at the leather jacket and said, "Is this suitable for me?"
"Trust me."
"My, this little leather jacket is indeed my style... I'll try it."
Li Zheng pushed Zhang Xiaoke back into the fitting room.
Very comfortable, very satisfying.
He found that by accompanying others shopping, helping them choose, and spending their money, he could also accumulate vitality points.
...
An hour later.
Zhang Xiaoke squatted in the fitting room, shivering.
"Please... let me go... my skin is about to peel off..."
"Just two more sets, try two more sets." Li Zheng anxiously knocked on the door, "They all look great."
"I know, but I couldn't control myself. I've already spent 3,000 bucks. My dad will kill me when I get home."
"Let's just try, not buy."
"I can't control it, you paired them so well!"
"Sigh, forget it. Come out, I'll try the clothes myself."
Zhang Xiaoke finally dared to open the door.
But seeing the cute white dress and cartoon red hoodie in Li Zheng's hands, she struggled for a moment and eventually grabbed them: "One last set."
"As many as you want, don't hold back, free your nature." Li Zheng smiled.
"Shut up!"
Another hour passed.
Uncle Fei stood at the counter at the store entrance, watching Li Zheng go in and out of the fitting room with great interest, and handed the bill to Zhang Xiaoke: "5,280, for our own people, make it 5,000..."
"Tha... Thank you, Uncle Fei..." Zhang Xiaoke stuffed the bill into her bag, full of guilt.
She was doomed. She couldn't control herself at all.
She said she was helping Li Zheng buy clothes.
But she ended up spending over 5,000 bucks herself in one go.
In the coming days.
She'd probably be eating dirt.
Uncle Fei swallowed some saliva and nudged towards the fitting room with his mouth: "How long has this kid been holding back, this addiction is serious."
"Anyway... I'm never shopping with him again." Zhang Xiaoke held her bag with a crying voice, "He's forcing me to try on set after set... and they all match so well, who can resist that."
"Yes, yes, I actually want to have this kid pair outfits for me too."
Just then, Li Zheng changed back into the original academic outfit.
"Still like this set, I'll buy it." Li Zheng walked to the counter and happily took out his credit card.
Uncle Fei took the card and started pressing numbers on a calculator: "Wool cardigan + casual trousers + shirt, original price 1,480."
He then came up with a new number and showed it to Li Zheng: "Friend of Xiaoke's, and it's your first visit, 1,200 for you."
"Okay."
"Come again next time, bring Xiaoke along." Uncle Fei smiled and prepared to swipe the card.
Just like the buy-one-get-one-free trick in the antique business, Uncle Fei had already made the profit he wanted from Zhang Xiaoke.
As long as they came again.
Li Zheng's money, it didn't matter if he made none.
Just as Li Zheng handed over his credit card, a girl in a trench coat walked out of the adjacent fitting room, spinning around to show her boyfriend: "Honey, how do I look?"
The boyfriend quickly put down his phone and nodded enthusiastically: "Great, great, buy it."
"How does it compare to the previous one?" the girl asked again.
"They all look good, you look good in anything."
"Then what color was the previous one I tried?"
"... white?"
"There was no previous one, this is the first one! And I hate white the most." The girl turned her head and pouted, "You're just brushing me off, you don't even know my favorite color."
"..."
Uncle Fei pursed his lips: "That girl is tough to deal with."
Li Zheng watched the woman and suddenly felt inspired: "I recall there's a set of sportswear inside, perfect for someone as slim as her."
Uncle Fei's eyes lit up, and he quickly said: "Little brother, how about this, you temporarily play the role of a salesperson, and I'll give you a 10% commission."
"Oh?" Li Zheng was very interested.
Relax and make money?
This was like picking up money.
"Don't... don't do evil, Li Zheng..." Zhang Xiaoke pulled Li Zheng and said, "Karma will bite back, remember that!"
"Hey, let my brother give it a try." Uncle Fei handed the credit card back to Li Zheng, "Try it out, if you close the sale, we'll settle up later."
Li Zheng nodded, thought briefly about what to say, and approached the couple.
His steps became infused with a demonic nature.
Zhang Xiaoke swallowed and sighed inwardly.
This was probably.
The stride of the devil.
