"You should know that my wife's family is wealthy, and if I don't make some money during this time, how am I going to support your extravagant spending," Lin Chen answered with a smile.
Upon hearing this, Gu Feier found it somewhat reasonable.
But having just divorced, she truly lacked a sense of security.
Getting married to Lin Chen was Gu Feier's biggest wish at the moment.
Only with a marriage certificate would their relationship become more stable.
Just as she was feeling a bit angry, Lin Chen stood up, ready to leave.
Gu Feier quickly asked, "Aren't you staying tonight?"
"Not staying," Lin Chen said as he put on his clothes.
Gu Feier expressed her dissatisfaction, "You haven't kept me company properly these past few days."
"Wait a few more days. When my wife goes back to her parents' house, I'll come over," Lin Chen said, and then he left.
After Lin Chen left, Gu Feier looked around the empty house.
She felt somewhat lonely.
It just so happened that she remembered her visitation rights every weekend, and she could take her daughter out for some fun.
So she sent a message to Gao Jun.
Gu Feier: [I want to take my daughter out for fun tomorrow.]
At this moment, Gao Jun was shopping with Gao Yingying.
They arrived at a designer clothing store in Wanxianghui.
The sales associate immediately came over to greet them warmly, "Hello, welcome to Balabala Clothing Store."
"Hello," Gao Jun said, leading Gao Yingying inside.
The sales associate was a young woman in her early twenties. When she saw Gao Yingying, she couldn't help but compliment her, "Wow, little sister is so pretty~"
Gao Yingying immediately smiled and said, "Thank you, sister!~"
"Oh my, what a sweet talker, what are we shopping for today?" the sales associate asked.
Gao Jun, standing by, smiled and replied, "Some clothes."
"Sir, we've recently introduced a few very nice pieces of clothing, all made from fabrics that are gentle on children's skin, and in terms of design, they are the most fashionable for this winter season~" the sales associate said and then led the way for them.
The front desk sales associate, Xiaolei, seeing this, whispered to her colleague nearby, "Guess, Chen Qiantong is showing them a jacket that costs several hundred, do you think the child's father will buy it for the child?"
The short-haired colleague shook her head, "I doubt it, usually fathers balk at the prices in our store and shake their heads to go to the next store."
"Yeah, most of those who come here are mothers with their children," Xiaolei obviously didn't think highly of fathers' spending power.
Chen Qiantong, who was busy introducing various styles to Gao Jun and Gao Yingying, didn't really take it to heart.
She was new to the job at the clothing store and needed the sales commission.
Whether it was fathers or mothers who brought their children, she would introduce the clothes patiently.
Gao Jun looked at the girls' jacket in front of him, then asked, "How about this one?"
"This jacket is one of the hottest styles from our Semir brand. It's made with a soft and comfortable fabric that's light and breathable, suitable for spring and autumn breezes as well as indoor wear in winter."
"Look, this jacket is in a fresh pink color, giving a warm and soft feeling, yet it does not lose the sense of childlike fun."
Chen Qiantong immediately took down the jacket, bent over to hand it to Gao Yingying for a look, while explaining to Gao Jun, "This collar is designed to be simple and sophisticated. It uses a stand-up collar that can protect little girls' necks from the cold while adding a touch of fashion. Plus, the cuffs have a tight design to effectively prevent cold winds from entering."
"The jacket is adorned with cute cartoon patterns on the chest and the back, with bright colors and lively images. The zipper is made of smooth, easy-to-slide material for convenience in dressing and undressing by a young girl."
Listening to the sales associate's presentation, Gao Jun then asked, "Yingying, do you like this one?"
"I like it!~" Gao Yingying, naturally treasuring the jacket, clung to it.
"How much is this one?" Gao Jun inquired.
Sales associate Chen Qiantong tentatively said, "This model is quite popular, so the price is rather high. Currently, our store offers a 22% discount, and after the discount, it's only 788 yuan."
Upon hearing this, Gao Yingying frowned, "Daddy, it's so expensive, Yingying doesn't want it."
Gao Jun, hearing this, smiled with satisfaction, "Yingying is so sensible, even thinking of saving money for daddy."
Chen Qiantong offered awkwardly, "How about... I show you some clothes over there? They are also good in terms of price-performance and made of decent fabric, but cheaper than this jacket."
"No need," Gao Jun gestured, "Let's just buy this one. We might buy other clothes later, so let's package it all together. Can you give us a further discount then?"
The sales associate Chen Qiantong certainly didn't expect Gao Jun to agree so readily, she quickly said, "No problem, if you sign up for a membership card here, charging two thousand will get you an additional five hundred yuan in coupons."
"Okay," Gao Jun spoke to Gao Yingying, "Yingying, what other clothes do you want? Let's pick everything out in one go today."
"Okay~" No matter how old a woman gets, new clothes naturally bring joy.
Not to mention the fashion-conscious Gao Yingying.
In the meantime, Gao Jun saw that he had a message on WeChat.
It was from Gu Feier.
He began typing: [When? You can come to pick her up directly.]
Gu Feier waited quite a while before she saw his reply.
She was naturally somewhat displeased.
Ever since the divorce, his attitude towards her had changed 180 degrees.
This made Gu Feier suspect that Gao Jun had already planned the divorce in advance, which is why he could sever ties so cleanly.
Gu Feier: [Tomorrow morning at nine, where should I pick her up?]
Gao Jun: [The courier station, I'll send her there.]
Gu Feier: [You're still working at that delivery service? I'm really fed up, consider our child for once.]
Gao Jun: [I don't see anything wrong with being a courier.]
Gu Feier: [In Modu, kids who go to school, don't their parents all drive Mercedes, BMWs, or Cayennes? Look at you, after going bankrupt, instead of making a comeback, you're content with your lot, working at a courier station. If Yingying gets ridiculed in the future and it affects her mental health, I won't let you off the hook!]
Gao Jun didn't reply to her; the summer insect cannot discuss ice.
If it weren't for the legal stipulation of having one visitation day per week, he would have already blocked that bitch.
Soon, Gao Jun purchased six or seven pieces of clothing, including pants, for Gao Yingying.
"Come, sir, let's go to the counter to pay."
Xiaolei and her colleague, who had been watching from the front, immediately sat up straight.
They hadn't expected this customer, the dad, to actually make a purchase in the store.
Sales associate Chen Qiantong used the calculator to zero everything out and then came up with a number.
"Sir, if you apply for a card with us, you can also get a 500 RMB coupon, which you can use right now. Would you like to become a member?"
Gao Jun nodded, "I'll get one."
"Alright~" Chen Qiantong immediately took out a registration book, "Sir, could you fill in your name and phone number?"
"Sir, will you be paying cash or with electronic payment?"
"WeChat payment."
"Okay~"
Soon after, the speaker system announced a notification: [WeChat payment received for 4200 RMB!]
"Sir, how about I add you on WeChat? Whenever there are suitable clothes styles, I can take pictures for you to see. If you like any, you're welcome to come over any time," Chen Qiantong suggested.
"Sure, that's fine."
That was how Gao Jun added her on WeChat and then left with Gao Yingying.
As soon as he left, her two colleagues immediately expressed their surprise, "Qiantong, he... he spent over 4000 RMB?!"
"Yes!" Chen Qiantong replied with a smile, "I didn't expect this child's dad to be so generous; he just asked for the price and bought it."
You should know, male customers who spend over 4000 RMB in one go at the store are rare, not happening several times a month.
Mostly it's mothers who come with their children.
"I'm so jealous of you, Qiantong, for landing a big client~"
"Haha, just lucky I guess~"
After Gao Jun accepted her WeChat request, Chen Qiantong immediately sent her name, [Hello sir, I am Chen Qiantong from Balabala Clothing Store, I'll send you more pictures of our new clothing styles in the future~]
Meanwhile, Gao Yingying was happily hopping and skipping along.
After all, she had bought so many clothes today and could wear them to show Miss Jiang.
"Dad, why don't you send a message to Miss Jiang? I want to go out with her in my new clothes~~"
But Gao Jun said, "Yingying, your mother is taking you out to play tomorrow. Besides, Miss Jiang also needs her rest. You can't keep bothering her all the time."
Upon hearing this, Gao Yingying's face instantly darkened, and with a pout and eyes brimming with tears, she said, "I don't want to! I don't want to see mom!"
