Gu Shao didn't know, and soon this issue would not need to be considered by him.
in school.
After the rehearsal was successfully completed, several members of the literary and art committee took Gu Xi and began to discuss the issue of the costumes for the competition.
"The costume must be the best one that is high-profile and dazzling." Dong Mingming suggested.
There is a saying that, strength, bah, the performance is not enough, and the props are collected.
After thinking about it, the art committee also thinks it makes sense: "I don't think it is necessary to exaggerate too much. After all, Gu Xi's repertoire is not particularly gorgeous, but it is definitely necessary to be conspicuous."
…
Several people were discussing with great interest, while Gu Xi interrupted: "As for the costumes, you don't have to worry about it."
Gu Chenyi specially sent her a message before, saying that there is no need to prepare costumes, and he will give her a big surprise.
If Grandpa, Gu Yanlin and the others said this surprise, Gu Xi would feel guilty, and she doubted that there would be a set of clothes from the beginning to the end.
But if Gu Chenyi is okay - probably because there is an international designer's mother, this guy's aesthetic is still very online.
After Gu Xi said this, the others nodded, but they did not continue to discuss the issue of costumes.
However, in the next second, Dong Mingming's eyes lit up again, and he pulled Gu Xi and said, "There is no need to prepare costumes, but there are still clothes for the opening ceremony."
The art festival in the High School Affiliated to University A will be held for a whole day.
—In the morning is the opening ceremony, followed by the art and culture exhibition, and finally the closing party.
In the opening ceremony in the morning, in addition to speeches by school leaders, teacher representatives, parent representatives, and outstanding representatives, class representatives elected by each class will also take the stage to read the slogan of their own class.
but…
"Do you still want to prepare clothes in the morning?" Gu Xi asked.
Shouldn't it be okay to wear a school uniform
"Of course!" Dong Mingming said, after a pause: he pulled Gu Xi again, and said solemnly: "I tell you, don't look at the time it takes to read the declaration on stage, it only takes a few minutes, it represents every class. image!"
Although on this issue, the school does not stipulate what to wear, but I don't know when it started. In short, later this session of the student representative's speech became an important 'comparison' for each class, no, is the competition segment.
Everyone is eager to dress better and look better.
After all, this is a big question of face.
Gu Xi looked at the others again, and sure enough, the art committee members nodded earnestly.
At this time, the art committee asked again, "Gu Xi, do you have any suitable clothes?"
Hearing this, Gu Xi thought for a while, then shook his head: "It doesn't seem to be."
The clothes in her closet are all normal clothes. The only two pink tutu skirts with lace and bows are said to have been picked by Gu Yanlin. Although it is grand enough, it seems inappropriate to wear it in the part of the student representative declaration.
"It's okay, it's still too late, why don't we buy it together." The art committee suggested.
Dong Mingming and several others on the side also echoed: "Yes!"
"I know a store, it's in the i'live mall. I passed by last time, and I felt that the clothes in it are super nice and there are many types! By the way, there are also many small accessories." Dong Mingming said more and more Cheer up, and even a few other people were infected.
"How about we go see it together after class?"
"Okay, just to see if there are any suitable stage props and so on."
After a few discussions, they finally decided to help Gu Xi choose the costumes for the art festival together in the afternoon.
"Then I'll tell the family."
Gu Xi said, and sent a message to Gu Shao: [Dad, I went to the mall with my classmates to pick up costumes for the art festival in the afternoon, and I will go back later. 】
—
On the other side, Gu Shao, who received a text message from Gu Xi and no longer had to pick up the child, was ready to work hard.
In two hours, Gu Shao handled the review of several project plans and the signing and approval of several documents.
At this time, Xu Fei walked in from outside the office.
"President, Mr. Qiao is here."
Gu Shao nodded: "Please come in."
—
Not long after, a man in his early fifties in a gray suit walked in. He was not tall and had ordinary looks, but his eyes were shrewd. And behind the man was a female assistant with a rather outstanding temperament.
This person is called Qiao Luo, a foreign Chinese.
A month ago, Choro and NTN signed a technology purchase agreement, and the order is now complete. So, Qiao Luo came here today, obviously not for that order.
"So, why is Mr. Qiao here today?" Gu Shao asked straight to the point.
"The first thing of course is to thank Mr. Gu. The purchaser is very satisfied with the safety equipment provided by NTN." Qiao Luo said with a smile.
After a pause, Qiao Luo explained his purpose today: "President Gu also knows that I am in international business, and there will be many more orders of this kind in the future, so I hope to have the opportunity to cooperate with NTN in the future. "
Qiao Luo's so-called 'international business' actually refers to some cross-border procurement projects. He signed contracts with official procurement companies in some countries to procure corresponding equipment for them.
In many countries, for some things that are inconvenient for cross-border cooperation procurement, they will entrust a third party to contact them.
He is this third party.
The cooperation this time has been very smooth, and therefore, Qiao Luo hopes to establish a long-term cooperative relationship with NTN.
Therefore, when he came today, it can be said that he made a special trip to visit Gu Shao.
Hearing Qiao Luo's words, the expression on Gu Shao's face was not too turbulent, and he seemed unmoved by the other party's intention to cooperate.
"Yes," Gu Shao said calmly, paused, and then said, "But I need to remind Mr. Qiao that all NTN cooperation projects must meet the specifications."
"Hahaha, of course! I understand this, and Mr. Gu can rest assured that I am a regular businessman."
Qiao Luo assured that he wanted to take this opportunity to chat more with Gu Shao, but Xu Fei walked in at this moment and handed a document to Gu Shao.
"President, the materials involved in the event later, and the car has been arranged." Xu Fei said.
"Do you have any plans for Mr. Gu for a while?"
Gu Shao nodded: "It may not be possible to entertain Mr. Qiao."
Seeing this, Qiao Luo nodded, stood up consciously, and prepared to leave: "Since President Gu has plans later, then Qiao will not bother."
After that, Qiao Luo's eyes flashed a gleam, and he looked at Gu Shao and asked meaningfully, "Why don't you let Lisa accompany you for a while?"
The Lisa in Qiao Luo's mouth was the assistant beside him at the moment.
- Qiao Luo is a shrewd person. When he came in before, he found that President Gu's eyes seemed to pause for a few seconds on his assistant.
In some respects, Qiao Luo still thinks he is very good.
However, hearing Qiao Luo's words, Gu Shao's eyes turned a little colder, and he frowned without showing any trace.
"No need." Gu Shao bluntly refused.
Qiao Luo's meaning was obvious, but unfortunately it was not what he thought. Gu Shao did look at Lisa more just now, but this was only because of a certain level of identity of this person.
In this regard, there is no need for Gu Shao to explain to these two people.
If Gu Xi was here at this time, you would find that this woman named Lisa was very similar to a person, and that was Song Kexin.
In contrast, the facial features of the two people are probably only three or four points alike, but they are very similar in a certain sense.
Rejecting Qiao Luo's 'kindness' and sending the two away, Gu Shao set off for the evening event venue.
—
On the other hand, after school, Gu Xi, together with Dong Mingming and the art committee members, came to a shopping mall that Dong Mingming had highly recommended.
Gu Xi has heard of this i'live mall before, and most of the brands and storefronts in it provide private customization services.
Advanced and kryptonite.
Just Gu Xi's impression of this place.
Fortunately, the one that Dong Mingming took them to seems to be quite cost-effective, and as Dong Mingming said before, there are a lot of things here.
After walking around in the store, the three of them almost dazzled.
Suddenly, the art committee member pointed in a certain direction with glowing eyes, and said, "How about that skirt?"
Gu Xi looked in the direction of the opponent's fingers, and her eyes also lit up.
The art committee refers to a beige skirt. The overall design of the skirt is very simple and elegant, which is very suitable for students of their age, but in terms of details, it has a little European retro style, which is between everyday wear and formal dress. The plaid decorations, lace and bows embellished on the skirt make the skirt look playful and lively without being so old-fashioned.
- It's pretty.
Gu Xi smiled and commented in her heart.
After trying it, Gu Xi made a decision: "That's it!"
"I think so!"
"I think so too! That's it!"
"By the way, this plaid pattern seems to be a series. Let's just choose some matching accessories."
"Yes, yes, accessories are also indispensable."
So, the three provoked the accessories again.
"How about this? It's so cute." Dong Mingming brought a bow headband of the same color and asked Gu Xi and the two.
Seeing the somewhat exaggerated bow on the headband, Gu Xi's mouth twitched.
It's cute, it's just...
"It seems to be a little too exaggerated." Especially the pair of cat ears on the headband.
"Then this, the bow is smaller."
"It's a men's bow tie," the art committee reminded.
…
In the end, among the accessories of the same series, Gu Xi chose a headband with the same plaid pattern.
When he was about to check out, a tie on the shelf behind the counter caught Gu Xi's attention.
"That tie is the same as the ones you bought." The clerk said with insight.
"Really." Gu Xi's eyes brightened: no wonder she felt a little familiar.
"May I see it?"
"Of course there is no problem." The clerk took off the tie and handed it to Gu Xi, and at the same time shrewdly introduced to Gu Xi: "This series has launched products suitable for all ages, and this tie is also very suitable for elders. As a family pack…”
In the end, under the trick of the clerk, Gu Xi successfully made Gu Xi decide to buy this tie.
When paying, Gu Xicai was surprised to find that this tie was as expensive as her skirt!
"Because the production time is the same," the clerk explained.
She couldn't let her tell the customer: In fact, the tie that she brought along is the main feature of this series this season, and those skirts and so on are just matching series.
"If you give a tie to Dad, here's a silk scarf for Mom." The clerk recommended again, but didn't notice Gu Xi's darkened eyes.
"No need." Gu Xi shook his head.
Looking at the price of these two things, Gu Xi's face was aching.
However, after hesitating for a few seconds, looking at the skirt and the tie, I really think it looks pretty good.
In the end, Gu Xi gritted his teeth and bought both.
"Can I pay part of the money and swipe the other part by card?" Gu Xi asked.
This part of the money was what she had left before, plus part of the prize money from the last competition she just got from the school, but it turned out to be only half of it.
For the remaining half, for the time being, you can only swipe your card first.
How much pocket money Gu Shao kept in her card, Gu Xi didn't check it out, so she didn't know.
Hope enough.
Gu Xi was a little nervous, but she didn't notice the moment when she handed the card over, a look of surprise flashed in the clerk's eyes.
"Do you really need to look at other accessories?" the clerk asked with a smile.
"No need." Gu Xi shook his head firmly.
The 'magic' of some shop assistants is that after you buy what you need, you can take away a series of things you didn't want to buy, or even don't need. She must resist the temptation resolutely.
Of course, the main reason is the lack of money.
—
Gu Xi was thinking about when he would be able to use the bonus to make up for the 'accidental' expenditure that was spent on the card today. After all, this is the life-saving money she saved for the future.
But she didn't know that compared to the total balance in the card, the money she spent couldn't even see any change if she didn't look carefully.
—
At the same time, Gu Shao also received a text message of consumption reminder.
[Your supplementary card ending in 0717 will be spent at… (i'live mall)… Yuan. 】
Knowing that Gu Xi was going to buy costumes for the art festival, Gu Shao was not surprised when he received the message of consumption, and after a brief glance, he withdrew his gaze.
However, the next second, the member consumption information sent by the mall surprised Gu Shao.
【Dear customer, the B*** men's tie you bought in our store... 】The following is a series of after-sales service and instructions for use.
"Not in vain." After the accident, Gu Shao said to himself, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and then read the text message several times.
"Then wear a suit."
On the side, Xu Fei, who accompanied Gu Shaoyi to attend the event, didn't know what text message their president read, but it was obvious that their president became in a good mood after receiving a certain text message.
—
Before the final part of the event was over, Gu Shao immediately resigned and left.
Back home, Aunt Mei was greeted at the door.
"Sir, you're back."
"Xixi hasn't come back yet?" Gu Shao glanced in the direction of Gu Xi's room.
Gu Shao sometimes needs to work overtime, and when he comes home at night, Gu Xi will greet him at the door.
Over time, it has gradually become a habit.
"Not yet," said Aunt Mei, and said again, "but the driver just called and has already received Xiaoxi and is on his way back."
"En." Gu Shao responded.
"Have you had dinner, sir?"
"Ate."
Hearing Gu Shao's answer, Aunt Mei nodded and didn't ask any more questions, but she was surprised to find that after Mr. came back today, he did not go to the study or the room, but sat in the living room.
- Sir, are you worried, are you waiting for Xiaoxi to come back
Aunt Mei thought to herself, but she didn't know that Gu Shao was waiting for Gu Xi here.
—
After a while, Gu Xi came back.
Seeing Gu Shao in the living room, Gu Xi was stunned for a moment, and the next second, a smile appeared on his face.
"Dad, I'm back,"
"Well," Gu Shao responded, his eyes fell on the bags in Gu Xi's hand: "What did you buy?"
"Just... a skirt, some accessories, what to wear at the opening ceremony of the art festival." Gu Xi explained.
Gu Xi said, the smile on her face widened a little bit, and with a 'hee hee' smile, she jumped up in front of Gu Shao: "There's one more!"
"what?"
"gift."
"I bought it for Dad!" Gu Xi handed one of the bags to Gu Shao while saying that.
"Really." Gu Shao raised his eyebrows, trying to maintain an expression of 'I didn't know it was a tie inside'.
Because Gu Shao was sitting on the sofa with his eyes slightly lowered, Gu Xi could not see the joy in Gu Shao's eyes at this time. Seeing that Gu Shao took the bag and opened it a little bit, Gu Xi suddenly became nervous: worried about whether Gu Shao would not Love the gift she gave.
"Well, I just thought it looked good and bought it. It doesn't matter if you don't like it." Gu Xi subconsciously twisted her fingers and said, paused, then said, "This may not be good, wait for me. I'll buy you expensive ones later when I have money."
On the side, watching the interaction between the father and daughter, Aunt Mei couldn't help laughing, how could she not understand.
- No wonder the husband was so happy when he came back, he opened his mouth and asked if Xixi was back. I guess he already knew that Xixi had bought something for him.
Looking at Gu Xi's nervous look, Aunt Mei was both amused and distressed: how could she not like it, as long as it was bought by Xi Xi, no matter what kind of husband it was, she would probably like it very much.
—
On this point, Aunt May guessed right.
After staring at Gu Xi obediently doing homework, Gu Shao returned to his room and couldn't wait to gesture with his tie.
After that, I took another photo and sent it to the circle of friends, with a paragraph: the first gift.
Just five words, no matter how you look at it, there is a feeling of showing off.
Looking at the comments such as 'beautiful', 'tasteful', and 'very fashionable' that quickly popped up under the state, Mr. Gu felt in his heart for a while.
However, there are also those who are not long-sighted, replying 'I feel that the style is not suitable for you', 'This is not Mr. Gu's style'...
As for these people, block them all.
Xu Fei also brushed the state of Gu Shao.
Looking at the photo, it is indeed a tie that is different from the president's usual serious and low-key style, and when he thinks of the happy look on the president's face when he received a certain text message, he immediately guessed the origin of this tie.
[Low-key yet stylish, rigorous yet energetic... Very tasteful, like! 】Xu Fei blows this rainbow fart without any burden.
The main reason is that the appearance of their president is there. Even if they get a red and green tie, they can hold it.
Here, seeing this very 'pertinent' evaluation, Gu Shao's eyes flashed with satisfaction.
- Xu Fei has been promoted to the position of assistant for several years, and it seems that the salary should be increased.
