Chapter 1720: Chapter 1717: Deliberate Targeting
After entering Bailan Pavilion, the shopkeeper welcomed them to the second floor and directly brought out one of the new items: “Miss Li, this dress is called Spring Orange. You’ll definitely like it; it matches your complexion perfectly. We’ve kept this dress for you early on in our shop.”
Li Chun’er had always been pampered and quite proud; if she saw something she liked, she had to buy it. The Qingguo Duke’s Mansion was known for its wealth; otherwise, she wouldn’t have the means to indulge like this.
“Alright then, hurry up and show it to me.” Li Chun’er hummed lightly, arms crossed, as she spoke.
The shopkeeper hurriedly called for someone to bring out the dress, and soon an orange gauze dress appeared before them.
There were quite a few young ladies from other families on the second floor, and upon seeing the dress, they couldn’t help but exclaim, “Wow, it’s so beautiful.”
“Indeed, this material seems to be the hottest gauze from last year, right?”
“Exactly, all the fabric used is this kind, it’s beautiful. Shopkeeper, do you have anything similar?”
The shopkeeper saw Li Chun’er was pleased and shook his head, “This fabric is already rare; there’s no more. However, young ladies needn’t be upset. Though there’s no more of this material, the other clothes are also beautiful, with very exquisite embroidery. They are definitely worth the price.”
Li Chun’er was thrilled to have this unique and beautiful skirt. She smirked, “Let me try it on.”
The maidservant beside her immediately stepped forward to take the dress from the shopkeeper’s hands.
The shopkeeper dared not say anything but continuously nodded in agreement.
In no time, Li Chun’er had changed into the dress. She usually used high-quality skincare products, and the rouge on her face was applied as pale as possible.
The orange color complemented her skin, making it appear fair and rosy, bright in hue.
Fortunately, her skin was quite fair; if it were even slightly yellower, it would look dull.
After changing into the dress and coming out, she immediately attracted praise from the ladies upstairs: “Wow, it’s absolutely stunning?”
“Indeed, Chun’er, this dress looks really good on you.”
Li Chun’er was overjoyed by the compliments and twirled around twice on the spot.
“Well, who do we have here,” a jarring voice sounded from the staircase.
Li Chun’er’s face darkened as she looked at the person walking up from the corridor. It turned out to be none other than her most disliked, Zhang Ling’er. She asked bluntly, “What, seeing me, shouldn’t you take a detour?”
“A detour?” This question clearly provoked Zhang Ling’er, who turned red with anger and immediately argued back, “Why should I take a detour?”
“Isn’t it because you’re afraid of being envious?” Li Chun’er had just put on her favorite dress and was in a delightful mood, so she smirked, deliberately provoking her.
Zhang Ling’er scoffed, “Envious?”
She walked over, accompanied by a group of friendly girls, and casually sized her up.
This action carried a hint of disdain.
Li Chun’er was not one to have a good temper, especially when the other party’s gaze was so audacious, stirring up her anger: “What? The dress I’m wearing is the best from Bailan Pavilion. You were late, and now you can only look.”
“Hehehe.” Zhang Ling’er covered her mouth with a sly smile, “What nonsense, I had already reserved my clothes long ago, and I don’t even fancy yours.”
“Shopkeeper, bring out my Pink Cherry,” Zhang Ling’er had long wanted to embarrass Li Chun’er and wouldn’t miss such a good opportunity.
