Chapter 3 - System Introduction

Chapter 3

The Elegantè. The biggest clothing shop in Yuan Yin city. It was a shop frequented by the biggest families of the Yuan Yin city. The head manager, Tian Long, of the shop, was a respected person in the entire city who was respected by many.

Today was a peaceful day in the shop. Everyone was tending to the small but influential buyers who were there to buy from the shop.

Suddenly, Tian Long was informed of very disturbing news. The young master of the Ruan Family was on his way to their shop to purchase custom outfits.

Cold sweat appeared on Tian Long's forehead as he remembered the cruel young master of the Ruan family but there was nothing he could do about it. The Ruan family was the biggest shareholder in the Elegante shop. In a way, the shop owner was coming.

Tian Long hurriedly tended to the customers and those who could not be tended to in the small time frame, were excused. They were upset about this but when told who was coming, all customers ran outside without care. In just five minutes, the entire shop was emptied.

Another five minutes later, a luxurious and grand limousine stopped in front of the shop. Before Tian Long could step out to welcome the guest, the guest himself stepped inside.

The state of the guests not only baffled him but all of the rest of the employees in the shop. Most of the employees were women so when a handsome young man walked in dressed in nothing but his boxers, no matter how cruel he was, made the young maidens blush terribly.

"Are you the owner of this shop?" Young Ruan asked straight away without engaging in any sort of pleasantries.

Long Tian quickly snapped out of his daze and replied, "Yes, Young Master Ruan. Although I am not the owner, I am the one who manages this branch."

Young Ruan nodded and said, "My measurements are written on this paper." Young Ruan gave a piece of paper to Long Tian before he started speaking after breathing in quite a bit, "I want a Single breasted suit with a single button. The jacket would be cobalt blue with the same color as the pants and a sky blue shirt with stripes to go with it. The suit would have three decorated studs of light silver on each cuff."

Long Tian was still reading the paper when Young Ruan began to describe his demand for suits.

"A double-breasted suit with both sides having deep grey buttons. The jacket would be light grey and the pants of the same color. To go with it would be an off-white shirt along with a slight grey tie."

"A three-piece suit of simple black and white mixture."

"A tuxedo with similar features as the three-piece suit."

"And finally an Italian suit with a long overcoat of light brown color. The jacket would be deep black while the waistcoat would have stylish deep blue stripes. The tie would also be black and the shirt would be of the same color as the stripes on the waistcoat."

"I will leave it up to you to match matching shoes with each attire and deliver by the end of today."

By the end of his instructions, everyone in the room had their mouths wide open. The servants of the Ruan family were astonished at how commanding their young master was while Tian Long and the rest were astonished by the detail young Ruan had for these types of things.

Still, Tian Long wasn't in his position without any merit. It didn't take him long to snap out of his astonishment and he replied, "Young Master, they would be done by the end of the day and I will personally deliver them."

Young Ruan nodded and replied, "Very well. Your payment will be delivered upon delivery. Good day." Young Ruan then turned and headed for the door of the shop. Without a word, he opened the door of the limousine himself and entered without a word.

Chen Xian hurriedly followed and entered the passenger seat of the driver's section. Opening the partition, he asked, "Where to now, Young Master?"

"Take me back home. I'm hungry." Young Ruan replied in a serious tone and closed the partition without letting Chen Xian reply.

=====

Once again, young Ruan had enough time to collect his surroundings so he asked the voice in his head. 'Explain yourself. What are you and what is your role?'

[I am your support in this world. I will help you reach the greatest heights no one in this worl--]

The voice began to explain but was interrupted by young Ruan, 'Skip the sales pitch and tell me your functions.'

The voice inside his head didn't know how to reply to that so it just heeded the order and said.

[Would you please say 'Status window']

Without further ado, young Ruan said, 'status window' in his head, and a hologram appeared before his eyes.
