The dress that the Art Committee girl had pointed out was beige. Its design was overall very simple and suitable for students their age, but also a little bit European retro style in some of the details. It was somewhere between a casual dress and a gown. The dress, adorned with plaid decorations, lace and bows made it look playful and lively without being too overly old-fashioned.

It was quite pretty.

Gu Xi smiled and thought to herself.

Gu Xi tried it on and made up her mind. “Okay, I will take this one!”

“I think that will work!”

“Me too! Let’s go with it!”

“Oh right, this plaid pattern seemed to be a series. Let’s pick up some matching accessories too.”

“Right, right, right. We will need those as well.”

As such, the three started looking at accessories.

“What about this one? It’s so cute.” Dong Mingming grabbed a butterfly hairband with the same design and asked Gu Xi and the Art Committee girl.

Looking at the enormous butterfly hairband, Gu Xi’s lips twitched.

It was cute, but……

“It’s a bit over the top.” Especially when the hairband came with a pair of cat ears.

“What about this one? This butterfly is smaller.”

“That’s a tie clip,” said the Art Committee girl.

……

Gu Xi finally picked out a plaid hair string from the same series.

When she went to pay, a necktie on the shell behind the counter caught her attention.

The store clerk, noticing what Gu Xi was looking at, said, “That necktie belongs to the same series as well.”

“Is that so?” Gu Xi’s eyes lit up. No wonder it looked familiar to her.

“Can I see it?”

“Of course.” The store clerk took the tie down and handed it over to Gu Xi while selling it to her, “This series is suitable for all ages. You can even gift this necktie to an elder and it can double as a family outfit……”

Gu Xi was finally convinced by the store clerk to buy the necktie.

When she went to pay for them, she realized that the necktie was the same price as her dress!

“It is because it takes the same amount of craftsmanship to make.” The store clerk explained.

She couldn’t possibly told her that the necktie was the main product of the series and the dress and the other accessories were the accompanying pieces.

“If you are gifting this to Dad, you can get the scarf for Mom too.” The store clerk recommended again, but she missed how the light in Gu Xi’s eyes had dimmed.

“That won’t be necessary.” Gu Xi shook her head.

Gu Xi was pained by the prices of the two items.

Nevertheless, after hesitating for a few seconds and looking back and forth between the dress and the necktie, Gu Xi liked them both very much.

She finally gritted her teeth and bought both of them.

“Can I pay for part of it in cash and the remainder with my card?” asked Gu Xi.

She still had some of her money remaining plus part of them was from her prize money from her previous competition. Lo and behold, that was only enough to cover half of the amount.

She would have to pay for the remaining half with her bank card.

Gu Xi never checked to see how much allowances did Gu Xi put on the card for her so she had no idea.

She hoped she had enough.

Gu Xi was a bit nervous and failed to notice the surprise that crossed the store clerk’s face when she handed the card over.

“You sure you don’t need any other accessories?” asked the store clerk with a smile.

“No need.” Gu Xi shook her head in a very determine manner.

Some store clerk’s “ability” was to convince the customers, after they had already bought what the need, to also buy stuff that they never planned to and didn’t even need. It was vital for Gu Xi to hold her ground.

Of course, mainly also because she does not have a lot of disposable income.

***

Gu Xi was concerned about making up for this “unexpected” income with future prize money. This was, after all, her future rescue money.

What she didn’t know was that the amount that she had spent, when compared to the total balance in the account, was so immaterial that one couldn’t even tell the difference.
