Reincarnation Of The Businesswoman At School Novel - Chapter 434
Chapter 434: Perfectly Finished
“Jesus! Miss Gu, you finished the 100 questions within just three minutes! You must be a genius!” Ouyang Sihuan said, and couldn’t believe his eyes.
“I wouldn’t be here if I wasn’t fully-prepared,” Gu Ning said.
However, her answer wasn’t quite persuasive, because it took at least 15 minutes for normal people to finish all the questions and there could be many wrong answers too. Even so, Ouyang Sihuan didn’t ask further.
Subject 2 required drivers to finish five items, namely “reverse into garage”, “parallel parking”, “ramp stop and start”, “right angle turn”, “curve” (commonly known as S bend). Subject 3 tested many basic skills for driving on roads. And all of them were perfectly finished by Gu Ning.
Gu Ning’s driving skills were even better than the driving coach’s, which completely shocked Cao Wenxin and Ouyang Sihuan, because she was just 18!
Gu Ning was probably the only one who had finished the test in such a short time with such a high score, that they had ever seen.
“Miss Gu, I really don’t know what to say now. You’re really, totally unbelievable! You’re even better than the best driving coach! From now on, you’re my idol.” Ouyang Sihuan looked at Gu Ning with profound admiration.
Gu Ning smiled, but didn’t say anything.
“Alright, let’s settle the driver’s license now, so that we can go have lunch together.” Cao Wenxin interrupted him and rolled her eyes. Ouyang Sihuan became Cao Wenxin’s good friend precisely because he was funny. Gentlemen weren’t really Cao Wenxin’s type.
“Yes, madam!” Ouyang Sihuan joked and guided them to the Hall of Certificates.
Within minutes, Gu Ning got her driver’s license.
It was already 11 am, and it was time for lunch. Ouyang Sihuan would be off-duty in half an hour, but there was nothing to do, so he left half an hour earlier. He had to be back at work at 2:30 pm, so they dined at a nearby restaurant.
After lunch, Cao Wenxin and Gu Ning drove Ouyang Sihuan back to his workplace, and then they went to go shop at Fengshang Shopping Mall which was owned by the Tang Family.
Fengshang Shopping Mall was one of the three largest shopping malls in City B, and it was located in the crowded downtown.
“Although I already have plenty of clothes in my closet and many of them are brand new, I still feel like I lack clothing once I see beautiful dresses.” Cao Wenxin had a strong desire to shop right now after she saw those colorful clothing stores. She was like an infant who saw her mother’s breast, and was eager to nurse.
Gu Ning didn’t know what to say. It was normal that women always felt like they lacked clothing, but the way Cao Wenxin bought clothes was still a little crazy. Gu Ning, on the other hand, wasn’t very interested in clothing shopping. To be honest, there wasn’t much clothing in Gu Ning’s closet, but it was enough, so she had no plans to buy more.
However, when they walked by a gown store, Gu Ning thought that she should prepare several sets of formal dresses in case she needed them in the future for parties. After all, her identity was different now, because it was already exposed that she was the real boss of Jade Beauty Jewelry. It was predictable that she would be invited to attend many parties or balls.
Networks were built at parties, and Gu Ning knew it very well.
“Wenxin, do you know any good gown stores here? I want to buy several sets of formal dresses,” Gu Ning asked.
“Gowns!” Cao Wenxin’s eyes suddenly lit up, but soon looked a little sad. “Well, I actually have a friend whose major is clothing design. I think her designs are beautiful, but she isn’t famous. If you don’t mind, I’d like to show you.”
“Of course not.” Gu Ning never cared about brands; she cared about quality and design.
Afterwards, Cao Wenxin guided Gu Ning to the gown store run by her friend which was also in Fengshang Shopping Mall.
On their way, Cao Wenxin told Gu Ning about her friend, “Actually, I just met this friend a short time ago, but I think that she’s talented. I like her designs. You know that rich people only value fame nowadays, but my friend insisted on doing her own job well instead of advertising or getting publicity, so she doesn’t have many clients.”
Fame only came when there was a great opportunity and promotion. The quickest way to get famous was to use another already well-known brand, but over 90% of well-known brands wouldn’t allow a new designer to use their brand name to sell her own clothing.
If the new designer’s clothing was even more popular than the brand’s, it would be a disaster for the brand. Therefore, a designer could only work for fame by themselves.
“Does she have any way of advertising?” Gu Ning asked.
“Well, she’s from an ordinary family without much help. I’m not very familiar with her, so I don’t know much,” Cao Wenxin said.
Hearing that, Gu Ning had a plan.
After a while, the two arrived at the gown store; its name was Charm. That was also the brand of the designer’s clothing. And Gu Ning loved the name.
Once Gu Ning and Cao Wenxin walked in, a saleswoman came ahead and welcomed them. “Welcome to Charm, ladies!”
“Hi, Wenxin!” A woman who was around 27-years-old walked towards them. She wasn’t very pretty but was elegant.
“Hi! I was just shopping here with my friend, and we coincidentally walked by your store, so I thought why not come in and say hi,” Cao Wenxin said. She didn’t say that had they actually come here on purpose, in case they would all be embarrassed if Gu Ning didn’t like the gowns in the store.
“Please let me introduce you. This is my younger sister, Gu Ning,” Cao Wenxin said to the woman. “And this is the owner of this store, who is also a designer, Yu Zi.”
“Nice to meet you, Miss Gu,” “Nice to meet you too, Miss Yu,” they greeted each other.
“Please, have a seat here.” Yu Zi invited them into the lounge.
