Chapter 631: Chapter 631 Clothing

Shen Dong knew he was misunderstood, but he didn’t bother to explain. If he had, it would seem like he was trying too hard to cover something up. The boss swiftly packaged everything and handed the bags to Shen Dong, who, with great efficiency, swiped his card and transferred all the clothes into his car.

After purchasing clothes for the hostesses, it was time to buy outfits for the DJs and other staff. These were provided by the club, so they couldn’t buy them on their own. He took Lin Qi to another place – a more upscale clothing base than the previous one.

The clothes there were a bit revealing, not as much as before, and they had a sexy edge which Lin Qi found acceptable because they were indeed attractive – to the point where she couldn’t resist them. After getting out of the car, they went straight inside, where the dazzling array of clothes left Lin Qi overwhelmed.

That’s when Shen Dong finally spoke up, "Now it’s your turn to choose. Take a look, and grab whatever sets you like. These are for you to wear." Lin Qi didn’t hold back. Since it was on the company’s dime, she was determined to get her fill. She promptly filled her basket with several sets she particularly liked.

The sales associate was caught off guard by such unusual shopping behavior. Not needing to try them on? Just picking out whatever looked good? Most of the hostesses at the bar had very similar body types, and the clothing sizes varied only between S and M, so shopping was incredibly simple – one size fits all.

By the time shopping was done, it was much later than expected. They had bought a massive amount of clothing, all packed into the trunk. It was Lin Qi’s first taste of life with money – buying clothes without a second thought, choosing whatever caught the eye, which surprised her.

If she ever became wealthy, she aspired to be that capricious, without worrying about whether to return items if they didn’t look good; she would simply give them away. Moreover, she felt so tired from selecting clothes that she lost interest by the end and couldn’t fathom shopping again anytime soon.

Shen Dong had paid with his card, not even sure how much he’d spent on clothes that day, but the sales associate’s smile was so broad her eyes were nearly shut. What luck to encounter such a generous customer who didn’t haggle — he paid whatever the amount was.

When leaving, she cheerfully said, "Welcome back anytime!" The two left with a smile and felt extremely tired as soon as they sat in the car. Despite not doing much other than shopping, exhaustion took over, suggesting that maybe Lin Qi wasn’t cut out for shopping sprees. Shen Dong chuckled and said,

"You worked hard today. As a reward, don’t hurry back this evening."

Before Lin Qi could fully understand, upon hearing that she didn’t need to rush home, she froze, wondering why she shouldn’t go back and becoming defensively anxious, then speaking up like a startled little rabbit,

"If I’m not going back, where am I going to?" Her voice trembled slightly, as if expecting Shen Dong to have ulterior motives. He couldn’t help but laugh. How could she think of him as so dirty? With a sense of resignation, he said,

"Where did your mind go? Do you think I’m that kind of person? I was just thinking of treating you to a late-night snack. Don’t you want to? I thought you deserved a treat after today’s hard work. You’re acting as if I did something wrong. If you don’t want to eat, I’ll just take you home; you have work tomorrow anyway.

This luxurious life won’t last long—I had thought about taking you to the club to have a look, but it’s getting late, so I don’t want to waste your time." Lin Qi waved her hand and said,

"Forget it, I’ll go for the barbecue. I thought it was something serious. But I don’t plan on going back home. Doesn’t your place provide accommodations? I’ll just stay at the staff dormitory; it’s less trouble. Let’s go for food now, you said you’d treat me, so let’s go. An opportunity not to be missed."

After saying that, she quickly started checking which barbecue joint was the tastiest, ready to depart. Shen Dong felt cornered by this little devil; there was no escape, so he might as well treat her to a meal. Indeed, it had been long since he had enjoyed barbecue and beer.

He had been strict with himself, and busy with work, not having the spare time to go out. So, he thought he might as well take this chance and enjoy a hearty meal. When they arrived at the barbecue restaurant, Lin Qi expected an upscale establishment but was surprised to find they were at a common eatery.

A bit astonished, she asked if the rich young master really ate at such places, "Are you sure this is where we’re eating, Mr. Shen?"

Shen Dong unbuckling his seatbelt, responded to her question with another, "Where else would we eat? Barbecue is best enjoyed at spots like this, hearty and satisfying. Plus, this place is pretty good, tasty and affordable. I’ve been eating here for many years and have become a regular; the owner knows me.

You didn’t think I would take you to some expensive hotel, did you? Nothing beats a place like this for barbecue. Don’t get so accustomed to luxury that you scorn simple pleasures. Come on, give it a try; I guarantee you’ll fall in love with it after one meal. You might even start coming here by yourself later on.

Everyone feels the same about this place, and the roast lamb here is exceptional. I’ll have the boss cook extra for you, and paired with beer and a sprinkle of chili powder, it’s delicious." Shen Dong spoke with a laugh, recalling how Kang Yue had also enjoyed dining here.
