CHAPTER 260: CHAPTER 260: REPUTATION (FOURTH UPDATE)

"This place is so beautiful, next time I must bring Xiao Jun and the others here." Tang Yue said as she sat back in the car tired, having played for a long time. These past few days, if it wasn’t looking at design drafts, it was looking at clothes. Now that she was out and about, she felt much better.

"They don’t have time." Mo Siyu continued, "They train in the morning and run around during the day. When would they have time?"

"They have been with the car team for half a month already, is that really okay?" Tang Yue was a bit worried, afraid it might affect Mo Siyu.

"It’s fine." Mo Siyu replied. "Having three free sources of labor, others would be too happy to have it. Are you just worried they might be too exhausted?"

"It’s fine, those who endure bitterest hardships can become superior men."

That day, Tang Yue returned to the car team and cooked a delicious dinner for everyone. Tang Jun and the other two were incredibly touched, wolfing down the food with a speed that was astonishing.

Li Wei and the other two also scrambled to pick the dishes.

The scene at the dinner made Tang Yue feel it was a bit... exaggerated.

When did her cooking become so delicious?

"Big sis, you don’t know, eating the canteen food every day, we got sick of it, I just love eating what you make." Tang Jun gulped down all the food he had, then asked, "Sis, we won’t be going back so soon, right?"

Tang Jun had already adapted to life here and wished he could stay forever.

"You want to keep staying here?" Tang Yue raised an eyebrow and said, "Your uncle has urged us several times, our stay in Jing City won’t be too long."

If it weren’t for the matter with Star Bright, she would have gone back already.

Once Star Bright Store officially opens and the studio can take orders regularly, she’ll go back to Wangjiang County. From then on, any drafts will be mailed to Jing City.

"Sis." Tang Jun, Zhang Qiang, and Wei Jiajie looked at each other then gazed at Tang Yue like three little puppies, pleadingly said, "Sis, let us stay a bit longer. We really like it here."

"What, have you finished your summer homework?" Tang Yue asked, looking at them who had grown visibly more tanned and thinner, but actually much fitter. She had thought they would be eager to return home, especially seeing them devouring their meal earlier, she felt heartache.

"We can finish it in two days." Tang Jun hurriedly interjected.

Zhang Qiang and Wei Jiajie also quickly expressed their stance, as if afraid Tang Yue might not agree.

"Let’s let you stay a few more days then." Tang Yue said with a smile.

"That’s great." Tang Jun and the others excitedly high-fived.

Having slept in the studio for over ten days, seeing her sunflower duvet again in this familiar yet simple room made her feel very close to it. Taking advantage of the day off, she began tidying up the room.

To avoid any suspicions, she stayed here while Mo Siyu slept with the others from the car team in the large dormitory.

After tidying up, Tang Yue had a good sleep.

The next day, she went to the clothing store early.

At Tang Yue’s suggestion, Xingyao Clothing Store underwent a simple change. The previous luxury was good, but excessive luxury made it uncomfortable. She changed a wall, adding a bit of greenery and made meticulous efforts in the arrangement of the clothes.

With the help of a few experienced tailors, by mid-August, they had hurriedly produced quite a few pieces of clothing. The opening date could be set any time.

Clothing from the Xingyao Studio, promoted by Zhao Rou and Cheng Ziqing, had already received several orders. When setting the prices, Tang Yue and Qin Anyu spent a long time discussing, and in the end, the clothes were priced higher than those in the store.

Tang Yue wasn’t renowned yet, and with the clothing set at a high price, except for those four sets promoted, no further orders came for the custom-made clothing from the studio.

Tang Yue wasn’t in a hurry; as long as Star Bright’s reputation builds up, the studio’s clothing would surely not lack business in the future.

On August 18th [|] Star Bright [|] Clothing Store opened again.

This time, Qin Anyu did not advertise or invite friends and family.

Uh, not for any other reason, just worried there would not be enough clothes to sell.

In over a month, while Tang Yue had designs ready, there weren’t many tailors, so not many clothes were made. Each design had only ten sets, and the sizing was strictly controlled.

Qin Anyu liked every piece and wished she could take them all home, but couldn’t because there were too few clothes in the store.

For the opening, besides having flowers and firecrackers, there were no other ceremonies.

The neighboring shops, seeing Qin Anyu’s store opening again, some uninformed even thought it was a relocation.

When Qin Anyu previously opened the store, she had invited all her friends and family to support, which was a huge scene.

Compared to this low-key event, no one would think it was the same person.

On the opening day, Qin Anyu specifically noticed that the customers were all strangers, and anyone who entered the store bought at least one set of clothes.

Some even bought two or three sets.

By the end of the day, quite a sum of money was made. Elated, Qin Anyu exclaimed, "Yueyue, you are amazing." Holding Tang Yue excitedly, and compared to the first opening, this time it seemed quiet, but these were genuine customers.

This gave Qin Anyu a profound sense of achievement.

"In the future, it will get even better." Tang Yue said cheerfully, just three days after opening, the store already started running out of clothes.

Qin Anyu found a few more tailors,
