Shu Yu had a mysterious look on her face, “Who said that I have to have clothes before I can start my business? Clothes are not the only things sold in this ready-to-made clothes shop.”
As soon as Shu Yu finished speaking, Ding Yuehua and the servant girl took a step back, “You, you want to sell yourself?”
Shu Yu was speechless. No, she wasn’t going to do that. There was no need to be afraid. That was not what she meant.
She coughed lightly, “I mean, my skills.”
She willed Miss Ding to sit down again before introducing, “Other than selling ready-to-wear clothes, my shop also sells image design. What is image design? For example, Miss Ding, you’re going to attend a very important banquet today. As such, you must dress appropriately for that occasion. If Miss Ding plans to go out and play, instead, then you have to dress up in a more refreshing and playful manner. Of course, if Miss Ding is meeting with someone you don’t like today, you can also dress up as an ugly monster.”
Ding Yuehua finally burst out laughing after hearing the last sentence, “Who would want to dress up as an ugly monster?”
“That’s hard to say. Just like Miss Ding, you’re obviously a beauty, so why must you dress up as a man?
As soon as Shu Yu said this, the smile on Ding Yuehua’s face faded, and her mood clearly became a little dejected, “What kind of beauty am I?”
Shu Yu was surprised, “Miss Ding, do you have some misunderstanding about yourself? If you’re not a beauty, then who is?”
Ding Yuehua was stunned.
Shu Yu frowned and said, “However, your male attire really covers up your appearance. Unfortunately, my ready-made clothes haven’t been sent over yet. Otherwise, I could let you try them on.”
Ding Yuehua’s interest immediately waned. After all, it was just some perfunctory words.
The other party said that she was a beauty, but then immediately said that her beauty was covered by her men’s attire. She said that this was a ready-to-wear clothes store, but there was not a single piece of clothing.
Ding Yuehua felt that she had made a wasted trip. She really should not have believed the words written on the paper and rashly came to this shop that did not even have a plaque.
She wanted to leave, but Shu Yu suddenly changed the topic and continued, “But it’s okay. Men’s attire has its designs. Miss Ding, if you don’t mind, can I help you dress up again and see the effect?”
Ding Yuehua was stunned and asked uncertainly, “Just… Wearing men’s clothes?”
Shu Yu nodded, “Of course.”
Ding Yuehua hesitated for a moment. She was curious, so after a while, she nodded hesitantly.
Shu Yu said, “Wait a moment.”
She got up and went into the room. After a while, she came back with a bulging bag.
Ding Yuehua did not know what it was. She could only watch as Shu Yu opened the bag and took out rouge, cosmetic powder, an eyebrow pencil, lipstick, as well as many other things that she had never seen before.
Shu Yu looked at the sky. There was still some light.
However, she still lit a few candles at the side to make the light brighter.
She then went to fetch a basin of water, wrung a clean handkerchief, and asked the servant girl to help Ding Yuehua wash her face.
After her face was clean and dry, Shu Yu opened a ceramic box and said to Ding Yuehua, “You just washed your face, so I’ll apply some hydrating cream on your face. I bought this from the rouge shop next door. You can take a look.
If you think it doesn’t suit you, I’ll change it.”
Ding Yuehua looked at the ceramic box and knew that the cream was not cheap. She nodded immediately, feeling a little nervous for some reason, “You, you can use it.”
Shu Yu smiled, “Relax..”
