132: Chapter 132 Shopping

Soon, the vehicle arrived at its destination.

This was a high-end shop located in the core business district of the county city, with an unassuming exterior.

However, the lintel bore only a simple emblem with the character "Ling".

Being able to own an independent storefront in such a location, and named after a single character, in itself demonstrated its extraordinary status.

As soon as the car came to a stop, a middle-aged male manager dressed in a well-fitting suit with a composed demeanor, who had been waiting at the entrance, hurried forward and respectfully opened the car door.

"Mr. Lin, ladies, welcome to 'Ling'."

Another female shop assistant, wearing a well-tailored uniform with a gentle and generous smile, also stepped forward to lead everyone inside.

Once stepping into the shop, it was as if they had entered an entirely different world.

The interior space was far more spacious than it appeared from the outside, and the decor was minimalist yet luxurious.

The lighting was soft, and the air was filled with a faint, relaxing fragrance.

The female shop assistant smiled and flattered them while leading the way:

"Mr. Lin, you are truly blessed. All the ladies are like Fairies descended to earth, possessing extraordinary temperament and stunning beauty."

Her gaze swept over Su Yingxue, Shen Youqing, and the other four women.

It then fell upon Qiao Shiyu and Bai Lulu, and finally, she hesitated for a moment before looking at Qiao Feifei.

Her eyes were full of astonishment.

Qiao Feifei had instinctively wanted to wave her hand and say, "I am not."

But as the words reached her lips, she glanced at her aunt and Bai Lulu.

When the two heard the term "ladies", although their faces turned even redder, they did not deny it, simply lowering their heads slightly with flickering gazes.

Qiao Feifei: "..."

She silently swallowed the words back.

Forget it... whatever... anyway... it looks like it's almost the case, right?

The female shop assistant led everyone to a more private, luxurious suite.

The room was spacious and bright, with all four walls in a soft, off-white color.

"Everyone can rest and browse here. We at 'Ling' support holographic projection for previews and virtual try-ons," the female shop assistant introduced.

Just as she finished speaking, the lighting in the room changed slightly.

The four off-white walls instantly transformed into incredibly clear holographic light walls!

Countless images of exquisite clothing rolled and displayed on the light walls like a waterfall.

From elegant evening gowns to exquisite daily outfits.

From casual sportswear to personalized apparel with a strong sense of design...

It was a dazzling array, covering various styles and occasions, with every piece exquisitely crafted and uniquely designed.

Su Yingxue and the other women were clearly not visiting such a place for the first time, and they skillfully operated and filtered through the items on the light walls.

"The cut of this dress is nice, and the color suits Youqing."

"Qingya, look at this casual outfit, isn't it very energetic?"

"Qianxi, this little jacket is so cute, it will go perfectly with that skirt of yours."

"Qingyue, Yuwei, look at this set..."

As they selected items, they discussed them with each other, the atmosphere relaxed and pleasant.

After selecting a few favorite pieces and adding them to their virtual fitting list, Su Yingxue seemed to suddenly remember something, turned her head, and asked the female shop assistant who had been standing by:

"By the way, do you have any good-looking swimwear recommendations here? I want something with high-quality Materials and a unique design."

Swimwear?!

As soon as this word came out, the bodies of Qiao Feifei, Qiao Shiyu, and Bai Lulu all stiffened at the same time!

For Qiao Feifei, it was pure lingering fear and embarrassment—why mention this again!

As for Qiao Shiyu and Bai Lulu, they instantly recalled those mortifying photos and the "war" from last night!

The female shop assistant, however, was completely oblivious and maintained her professional smile:

"Of course, Madam. Our 'Ling' swimwear series are all crafted by top designers, utilizing special Materials, balancing aesthetics, comfort, and functionality."

She tapped her fingers a few times on the controller on her wrist.

The images on the light walls switched rapidly, turning into various, exquisitely designed, and stylistically diverse swimwear!

Bikinis, one-piece, two-piece, skirt-style...

Solid-colored, printed, lace, strapped...

Cute, sexy, minimalist, gorgeous...

Everything was there!

Many of the styles, in terms of boldness and design, even surpassed those "bottom-of-the-trunk" pieces Qiao Shiyu and Bai Lulu had last night!

Su Yingxue, Shen Youqing, and the other four were all women who had experienced life and were already mothers.

Facing these swimsuits, although they also found them beautiful, their reactions were relatively calm, and they could objectively discuss the styles and colors.

But for Qiao Feifei, Qiao Shiyu, and Bai Lulu, those three unmarried young women, it was completely different!

In front of so many people, especially with Lin Yun there!

Looking at the images on the light wall of swimsuits that were either sexy and hot, or pure and cute, but all tightly hugging the body's curves...

The faces of the three of them turned completely red in an instant!

Especially Qiao Shiyu and Bai Lulu, the moment they saw these swimsuits.

They remembered how they looked wearing swimsuits and taking photos last night; their cheeks were so hot they could boil an egg, and they almost lacked the courage to even look up.

Qiao Feifei simply lowered her head, pretending to study the patterns on the clothes.

Qiao Shiyu and Bai Lulu were initially so embarrassed and mortified that they wanted to escape immediately.

But, when their gazes inadvertently met the other's equally flushed cheeks and evasive eyes...

A familiar, stubborn competitive spirit inexplicably emerged again!

Especially seeing those swimsuit styles on the light wall that were even more exquisite and bolder than what they wore last night...

The two of them, almost simultaneously, forcibly steadied their minds and lifted their heads.

Qiao Shiyu slightly lifted her little chin, her gaze "calmly" sweeping over those swimsuits as if she were seriously selecting, only the blush on her ears betrayed her.

Bai Lulu folded her arms, her red lips slightly curled, making a lazy expression that said "it's nothing special."

Her gaze lingered on a few particularly sexy styles as if evaluating them, only her slightly trembling fingertips betrayed her nervousness.

That appearance was clearly a contest:

Look, I dare to look! I'm not afraid at all! I can even critique them!

Su Yingxue took in both of their reactions, secretly chuckling in her heart.

She calmly selected a few sets of swimwear with Shen Youqing and the others, some relatively conservative and cute, and some with bolder and sexier designs.

Then, she "kindly" asked the three of them:

"Little Sister Shiyu, Little Sister Lulu, Feifei, what do you think of these?"

"Are there any styles you like? You can try them on too~"

Qiao Shiyu and Bai Lulu: "..."

Try them on? Here? Now?

The "calmness" on their faces almost collapsed.

In the end, it was Bai Lulu who forced herself to hold on, saying with a slightly dry voice:

"It's... it's alright. Sister Yingxue, you all have good taste, what you've selected must be good."

Qiao Shiyu also hurriedly nodded in agreement.

Su Yingxue smiled, didn't continue to tease them, and said to the female shop assistant:

"Alright, these sets are fine. Please bring them over, we'll try them on."

"Very well, ladies, please wait a moment."

The female shop assistant bowed and exited the room to fetch the swimwear.
