After the two of them got out of the elevator, they began to look for Dai Mei. Since she chose to take the elevator to the first floor, it means that there is a place she needs to stay on this floor. Otherwise, she can just skip the first floor and go to other floors. In this way, with the distance between them, as long as they don't delay too much, it is not difficult to find Dai Mei.
Although Gu Xiaofan thinks that he is not an excellent criminal policeman, he has some common sense that he should know. For things like stalking, the mastery of distance is very subtle. If you are too close, you will be noticed. If you are too far away, you will easily lose the target. It is the best choice to be neither far nor near. Of course, it is easy to say in theory, but there are not so many perfect distance standards in practice. You need to adapt to circumstances. So most of the time, it is better to be a little farther away and try not to lose it, and you must not expose your whereabouts and purpose too early because of being too explicit.
The first floor of the mall sells cosmetics, jewelry and watches. As soon as you walk out of the elevator, you will be greeted by a strong fragrance. The smell of cosmetics and perfumes of different brands is mixed together. It is hard to tell what the smell is, but it is not bad.This mall is also well-known in City A. As a newcomer, Zhong Han may not know it, but Gu Xiaofan knows it very well. The things in this mall are all so-called high-end international brands that cost thousands or tens of thousands of yuan. So let alone the gold jewelry and watches on the first floor, even the dazzling cosmetics counters are not small, so the fragrance is different from the choking ones in the affordable malls. It is strong but not strong, which makes people feel quite comfortable.Gu Xiaofan is a thorough working class. As a young grassroots police officer in her twenties, her salary is not enough to starve to death, but it is not enough to support her. Therefore, she passes by this mall many times on weekdays, but she only comes in a few times. It seems that the last time she came here was probably a year ago. The cold and arrogant attitude of the store clerks who think that their value has doubled because of the expensive goods sold in the store has left a deep impression on Gu Xiaofan.But today's situation seemed different. Not long after they got out of the elevator, they saw Dai Mei casually picking something in front of a French cosmetics counter. So Zhong Han also took Gu Xiaofan to "wander" around casually. In the past, the salesmen who ignored Gu Xiaofan, who was dressed casually and had no brand-name clothes on her body, suddenly became enthusiastic about her today. When they stopped in front of another counter not far from the counter where Dai Mei was staying and pretended to browse the goods, the salesman suddenly came up to them enthusiastically, picked up a bottle of perfume, sprayed it on Gu Xiaofan twice, and introduced that this was the new perfume of the season in this counter. If you like it, you can provide a trial pack.Gu Xiaofan was a little uncomfortable, and thanked the other party as if she was flattered. Of course, she didn't ask for the trial pack. She didn't usually use perfume to make herself smell fragrant, not to mention that the perfume that costs one-third of her salary for one bottle is so expensive that it's impossible for her to buy it, so she shouldn't waste the other party's feelings and trial pack resources.Dai Mei strolled around as if nothing had happened, and Gu Xiaofan and Zhong Han had to accompany her. However, after visiting several counters, Gu Xiaofan finally figured out one thing. The salesperson here was particularly nice to her today, not because the mall had improved its service attitude, but because of the male companion who came here with her today - Zhong Han.It's not that Gu Xiaofan wants to flatter Zhong Han's face, but the attitude of those salespeople really makes it impossible for her not to understand.Because nine out of ten of them will say to Zhong Han after enthusiastically recommending a certain product, "Sir, please consider it. Your girlfriend must be good with this."Whenever faced with such recommendations, Zhong Han always looked at Gu Xiaofan beside him as if to seek advice. Gu Xiaofan naturally did not react, so he said to the salesperson with a little apology: "My girlfriend doesn't seem to like it very much. Let's think about it again."His attitude was very sincere, as if he was really a model boyfriend who accompanied his girlfriend to go shopping.And his seemingly casual clothes, but in fact, you can see that he was carefully matched, with a slightly lazy and faint smile on his face. People who don't know him will never associate him with the profession of criminal police. Maybe they will think he is a gentleman. It is precisely because of this that every time he refused the salesperson's sales promotion, the other party accepted his words without exception, and no one doubted his spending power.In this way, Gu Xiaofan can be regarded as "taking advantage of his position" and experiencing a unique and thoughtful service in this shopping mall. Although he refused again and again, when they followed Dai Mei through the cosmetics area from a distance, Gu Xiaofan's purse was still filled with a lot of trial packs."These people really treat people differently! Judging people by appearance is really bad!" Although the treatment today was good, Gu Xiaofan couldn't help but want to complain and feel unfair for the cold treatment she had received in the past. You know, when she got her first month's salary, she gritted her teeth and stamped her feet, and made a great determination to come here to buy a beautiful lipstick for herself as a reward and commemoration for her first income after work. As a result, because she was wearing a brandless T-shirt and a pair of loose multi-pocket knee-length shorts, and a pair of worn canvas shoes, she shouted at the salesperson in front of the counter for a long time, but no one paid attention to her. Now when she thinks back, she feels very aggrieved."Judging people by appearance is a common problem for all living things, so think about it from another angle. First of all, people should know how to make good use of their own resources. Secondly, dressing appropriately and pleasingly is an affirmation of oneself and a respect for others." Zhong Han looked at Gu Xiaofan beside him. He had thick black hair casually draped over his shoulders, long and thick bangs, a plain face, and an ordinary down coat and jeans. "Given your age and situation, you should wake up quickly."Gu Xiaofan's face was a little red. Although Zhong Han had only been transferred here for a few days, with Tang Hongye's big mouth around, there was no way he could hide any secrets, such as the fact that he was 27 or 28 years old and had no boyfriend or relationship, and was already regarded as the best candidate for the old aunt family who couldn't get married.Fortunately, Zhong Han just said it casually, and his attention was mainly focused on Dai Mei. Gu Xiaofan was a little embarrassed, and soon got rid of the embarrassing topic.Dai Mei walked around the first floor of the mall for a while, and she already had two small paper bags of cosmetics in her hands. However, from her appearance, it seemed that these things were just bought casually while strolling around. Her real purpose was not to buy cosmetics or anything like that.After a while, she suddenly lowered her head and flipped through her purse, took out her cell phone from it and answered a call. Dai Mei's voice was quite loud, and even though they were a distance apart, Zhong Han and Gu Xiaofan could still vaguely hear her say to the person on the other end of the phone in a somewhat excited tone: "Then come in quickly, I'm next to the Dior counter, um, waiting for you, hurry up!"Less than five minutes after Dai Mei hung up the phone, a man in his twenties appeared in the sight of Zhong Han and Gu Xiaofan. He walked quickly towards Dai Mei, and Dai Mei soon saw him. When she saw this man coming, she immediately greeted him with a smile, and intimately took the man's arm. The two of them walked towards the jewelry area with laughter and chatter."This...she came here to meet her boyfriend!" Gu Xiaofan whispered to Zhong Han, "It seems that the three Tang Li mentioned are hopeless, but this fourth one seems to be quite promising."Zhong Han and Gu Xiaofan walked to the jewelry area slowly. This time, Zhong Han changed his previous practice of deliberately keeping a distance. He put his arm around Gu Xiaofan's shoulder and walked with her to Dai Mei and the young man to look at jewelry.At this time, Dai Mei and the man had both sat down on the high stool in front of the counter. They were choosing jewelry with the enthusiastic service of the salesperson. Zhong Han and Gu Xiaofan pretended to look at the jewelry and observed the man with Dai Mei.The man looked quite young, with fair skin, thick black eyebrows, and a pair of eyes that seemed to always smile when looking at people. They were a pair of typical peach blossom eyes that couldn't be more typical. He wore a jacket-style down jacket with a very young style, narrow jeans on the lower body, and a pair of leather boots on his feet. He was dressed like a young fashion expert. He sat with Dai Mei. Although Dai Mei was only 26 years old and well-maintained, people still felt that they were a pair of siblings in terms of age.Dai Mei seemed to be in a particularly good mood. She kept talking and laughing with the young man, and the young man kept responding softly. The two of them were quite happy. It didn't take long for them to finish their selection. When the salesperson asked them to pay, Dai Mei stood up, took out her wallet from her bag, and took out her bank card and handed it to the salesperson.Not only did Zhong Han and Gu Xiaofan look at each other in surprise, but even the experienced salesperson who had seen all kinds of customers couldn't help but glance at the young man. The young man didn't care and continued to chat and laugh with Dai Mei until they paid the bill with their cards. Then the two of them left together.Gu Xiaofan thought she was going to follow them, but Zhong Han pulled her back, hooked her shoulder and walked to the salesperson who had just served Dai Mei and the others. He smiled at the man and said, "Please, I also want to see the styles those two people just saw."The salesperson looked at Zhong Han and then at Gu Xiaofan, thinking that it was another couple who came to the store. She seemed very happy to see customers coming one after another. She immediately asked them to sit down enthusiastically, and then took out the styles that Dai Mei and the young man had just bought from the counter next to her and placed them in front of Zhong Han and Gu Xiaofan.Under the bright lights of the jewelry counter, a pair of wedding rings inlaid with diamonds flashed a dazzling light.
