Chapter 656: Jiang Kelan
Wen Xinya had also been paying attention to news about the Xia Family and was well aware that they had some cash flow and financial problems which caused them to be in a financial crisis. As a result, the supermarket could not operate smoothly. However, they managed to tide through the crisis after generating enough revenue to cover the losses, from the sales that had been going on for the past few days.
It was Friday today, and Wen Xinya headed straight to Lishan Mansion after school. Along the way, she drove past a men’s apparel store and saw a dark-colored shirt that caught her attention. She felt a sudden urge to buy it.
Without hesitation, Wen Xinya parked her car and entered the store.
“Miss, please hand me that shirt on the mannequin in the display window.”
“Miss, please hand me that shirt on the mannequin in the display window.”
The two voices chorused in unison.
Wen Xinya turned around to see an elegant woman standing behind her, clad in the latest Chanel dress from the Spring collection and a fur cardigan. Her makeup was exquisite and she was also looking at the shirt in the display window.
Having sensed that Wen Xinya was staring at her, the woman put on a friendly smile and said, “What a coincidence, you’ve also set your sights on this shirt! Seems like we have the same taste.”
The woman had an elegant and refined voice that resembled a violin.
Wen Xinya smiled and exclaimed, “Yes! What a coincidence! This shirt suits my boyfriend very well, so I’d like to buy it for him.”
She realized that she had rarely given Si Yiyan any gifts even though they had already been dating each other for several years. She was suddenly reminded of the time when Jiang Ruoyin harmed her two years ago and Si Yiyan showed up at Lan Feng Institute, after which they began talking about apparel.
The girl burst into laughter and exclaimed, “What a coincidence, me too!”
The woman scanned Wen Xinya from head to toe and thought to herself, This girl looks really young, but she exudes such a refined elegance. She may dress in a low profile manner, but anyone who has good taste can tell that she’s wearing Henry Pool apparel.
She must be incredibly wealthy to be able to afford that.
Wen Xinya was greatly taken aback. When the woman scanned her from head to toe, she did the same. She could tell from the way that the woman dressed, that she was extremely wealthy. Although the woman was supposedly eye-catching, Wen Xinya had never seen her before.
The woman seemed to have a good impression of Wen Xinya. She smiled and said, “I didn’t expect you to fancy this brand too.”
Wen Xinya subconsciously glanced at the brand of the men’s apparel which had a double C logo. She tried to recall where she had seen the brand before but still found it rather foreign. However… she did not look down on the brand, because she knew that it was opulent and much better than other international luxury labels.
Seemingly having noticed her confusion, the woman explained smilingly, “This brand originates from a bespoke apparel manufacturing company in Harbor City. Although it doesn’t have a history as rich as that of the Henry Poole Family, it still dates back to centuries ago. In fact, they enjoy much more attention than the Henry Poole Family. They specialize in men’s apparel like suits, shirts, ties, leather belts, and other business attires. There are only five branches in the entire nation.”
Wen Xinya was greatly taken aback. Harbor City was considered to be the assembly ground of the top tycoons in China, and it was an extremely expensive and luxurious city that housed major shopping, gastronomic and beauty brands, as well as China’s business hub.
Capital City was the city of power, while Harbor City was the city of wealth.
Wen Xinya reckoned that the woman was a loyal customer of the CC store. “I didn’t expect this store to have such a rich history.”
The woman smiled and said, “The pieces that they create are unique and one-of-a-kind, literally. They only produce one piece of each design. Henry Poole apparels are status symbols, while the clothing made by CC are refined and opulent. They’re focused on helping men accentuate their charm.”
“Doesn’t that equate to bespoke and tailor-made pieces? Even if I’ve set my sights on a particular piece, there might not be an available size.” Wen Xinya then glanced at the charcoal-grey shirt again to see that it resembled ink in water, luxurious and classy.
Si Yiyan had a similar shirt, but it was not as appealing as this one.
The woman answered smilingly, “That’s a concern that a lot of people have. However, CC will never replicate a design regardless of how much money they’re offered.”
The store assistant then retrieved the shirt and placed it on a hanger for their viewing.
At the same time, the store assistant also handed them the basic information of the shirt.
Wen Xinya stared at the measurements of the shirt, only to get a huge headache. She had no idea what Si Yiyan’s measurements were!
The woman seemed to have seen how shy she was. She explained smilingly, “This shirt is a size seven. It’s the most flattering size. Men have high expectations of measurements, and the ratio of the upper body and lower body has to be 4:7. That’s the golden ratio that men deem as perfect.”
The woman then continued to explain a bit more about men’s measurements to her.
Wen Xinya felt as if she had lived through two lifetimes for nothing.
The body proportions of men turned out to be more precise than women.
She had gained an eyeopener.
However, Wen Xinya suddenly realized that the shirt seemed to have been made for Si Yiyan. Although she did not know his exact measurements, she was familiar with every contour of his body.
Intuition… was women’s best weapon.
It can’t go wrong.
Wen Xinya looked at the woman beside her and felt a little embarrassed to vie with her for the shirt because of how friendly the latter was.
Having understood the look in her eyes, the woman sighed and said, “It’s such a pity that this shirt doesn’t fit my boyfriend’s measurements. Your boyfriend should be able to fit into it.”
Wen Xinya answered with a nod, “I may not know what his measurements are, but I trust my taste. He’ll definitely be able to fit into this.”
The woman smiled and said, “Your boyfriend has a great figure.”
Feeling proud, Wen Xinya exclaimed, “Yes! It’s splendid!”
Her reply made the woman speechless.
Seemingly having noticed that Wen Xinya was possessive of her boyfriend, the woman smiled and extended her hand. “My name is Jiang Kelan. I’m from the Harbor City. Nice to meet you.”
Wen Xinya shook her hand and said, “Hello, Miss Jiang. My name is Wen Xinya. Welcome to Capital city.”
Shock was written all over Jiang Kelan’s face, for she had heard about Wen Xinya before. She had felt that Wen Xinya was not a simple girl right from the start. However, she did not expect that Wen Xinya would be the heiress of the Wen Family.
After Jiang Kelan left, Wen Xinya picked out two more ties and a leather belt. She then paid up and left.
