Chapter 157: Chapter 157: A Good Dog Doesn’t Block the Way, Haven’t You Heard?

Next week, we might need to continue taking them on the show. According to the program team’s suggestion, we might go abroad, so it’s time to buy them some decent clothes.

Gu Zhi took them to an affordable brand store, where there was a wide variety of clothes for all ages.

As soon as Father Qin and Mrs. Qin entered, they were attracted by the dazzling array of clothes inside. Each piece was illuminated with individual lights like museum antiques, worth more than the most expensive appliance at home.

Gu Zhi quickly picked out a few outfits, an elegant dress, some bright-colored suits, and Zhongshan collar t-shirts and pants.

All were handed to the two.

"Go and try them on, if you like any, pick them out," she said.

Father Qin and Mrs. Qin were a bit taken aback, looking at her unexpectedly, "For us?"

Gu Zhi nodded, "Yes."

"We can’t wear these, they are so expensive," Mrs. Qin refused without hesitation. Seeing the price, her heart genuinely ached, "Just pick for yourself. You youngsters should buy more clothes, especially girls. Wearing these on us is a waste."

Gu Zhi anticipated their refusal, "I have enough clothes, I’m here to buy for you, just try them on so we don’t waste time."

Mrs. Qin was still heartbroken, frowning, "But, we really can’t wear something at this price..."

Thousands of yuan for a single piece, they didn’t even dare think about it, let alone wear it!

Gu Zhi sighed helplessly, "Do you want people to point out my unfilial piety the next time you’re on the show?"

Mrs. Qin felt a bit troubled hearing this, exchanged a glance with Father Qin, then looked at Qin Ji. Ultimately, they reluctantly took the clothes to the fitting room with pained hearts.

A sales clerk nearby noticed the two, a hint of displeasure flashed in her eyes.

Just by looking at their clothes, she could tell they certainly couldn’t afford it.

They dealt with many like this each day, trying clothes without buying them, slowly making a mess that they had to tidy up, and if the clothes were damaged, they’d be charged for it.

Though they couldn’t afford it, it didn’t stop them from enjoying trying on clothes.

The sales clerk frowned, about to say something, but stopped when her eyes landed on their faces, stunned.

Whoa, aren’t these Gu Zhi’s parents from the livestream? They looked exactly the same!

She was startled, quickly approached them with a changed smiling face, "Are you Mr. Qin and Mrs. Qin? Did you come to buy clothes too? Can I take a photo with you?"

Father Qin and Mrs. Qin: "?"

They weren’t big stars, what’s the use of taking a photo with them?

The sales clerk said excitedly, "You are the nation’s parents! I’m a fan of your daughter, I really like you both, never seen such wonderful parents!"

Father Qin and Mrs. Qin: "..."

They hadn’t even tried on the clothes before being dragged into taking photos.

Seeing this, Gu Zhi smiled, then turned to Qin Ji, "Big brother, pick a few as well."

Qin Ji immediately refused, "I have enough clothes, I just bought some a few days ago."

Gu Zhi gave him a look, finally expressionless, "Then I’ll pick for you."

She had a good eye, with frequent exposure to fashion culture, her eye for pairing clothes was unique.

Soon, she selected a few suits and casual outfits for Qin Ji.

Qin Ji glanced at them, still reluctant to accept, not wanting to waste her money.

Faced with Gu Zhi’s persistent gaze, he had no choice but to take them, shaking his head in both indulgence and resignation.

In the end, Gu Zhi bought everything they tried on.

Her eye for clothes was indeed good, everything fitted well and matched their temperament. With the clothes on, Father Qin instantly transformed from an ordinary laborer to a small leader, while Mrs. Qin looked like a plump middle-class lady.

And Qin Ji, in a perfectly tailored suit, exuded a dominating aura, as if signing a billion-dollar contract with ease, proving the qualitative difference between several hundred yuan and tens of thousands-worth suits.

Gu Zhi was very satisfied and readily paid the bill.

For the first time, she experienced what it’s like to spend money on people you care about.

Father Qin and Mrs. Qin were still visibly distressed, the thousands, tens of thousands-worth clothes felt good to the touch, but felt prickly to wear.

Heartache.

But under Gu Zhi’s strong insistence, they had no choice but to leave wearing the clothes they had on.

Right across from this store was a high-end brand apparel store, and just as they came out, they happened to run into Gu Mu and Gu Yiyi, who had just finished looking at dresses.

Mrs. Gu’s eyes landed on them, her brows furrowed, thinking how unlucky it was to run into them everywhere.

Seeing Father Qin and Mrs. Qin in their new clothes, her expression instantly darkened.

Gu Zhi not only helped them buy a house but also took them clothes shopping.

Spending money earned from them, all on the Qin Family, paying respects to these people.

She didn’t know whether to consider her as betray the own family interest or simply foolish!

She had yet to pay respects with money, and yet she gave birth to such a thing!

Gu Yiyi saw them too, momentarily confused, with disdain flickering in her eyes.

She didn’t say anything, just listened to Mrs. Gu arrogantly instructing the clerk, "You must quickly alter and deliver my daughter’s dress; the event in a few days is very important for her. And the accompanying jewelry must be the best, as the Gu family’s daughter absolutely cannot be overshadowed by others."

The sales clerk nodded respectfully.

Upon hearing this, Gu Yiyi’s face lit up with a smile.

Something came to her mind, and she quickly walked over to Gu Zhi, asking calmly, "By the way, Zhi Zhi, haven’t you received the KSL banquet invitation yet? This banquet is very important, symbolizing an artist’s status in the entertainment industry."

"We have extra, if you want, I can ask my mom to give you one."

KSL, a top luxury brand domestically, the only domestic luxury brand to go international, holding significant sway in the fashion and entertainment circles.

Gu Yiyi only got the invitation due to the Gu family’s business deals with the Cheng Family, otherwise, her status in the entertainment industry alone wouldn’t be enough.

But that’s not important, just obtaining the KSL invitation and attending their banquet solidifies her status in the fashion and entertainment circles.

If she could seize the chance to snag their brand endorsement, her business collaborations would leap to a higher level.

Gu Yiyi’s tone was full of loftiness, "Of course, on the condition that Big Brother Qin apologizes to my mom, and Qin Yuan drops pursuing my third brother."

"Trading some useless academic proof for a KSL invitation is quite worthwhile."

Gu Zhi lowered her gaze at her words, eyes contemptuously scanning her from head to toe, scoffing lightly, "You really think highly of yourself."

"Gu Zhi, you, you’re so unappreciative..."

"Step aside," Gu Zhi’s tone was cold and domineering, "good dogs don’t block the path, never heard of that?"

Gu Yiyi’s expression darkened; she couldn’t understand where Gu Zhi’s confidence came from, ignorant of what the KSL invitation meant, full of poverty-stricken arrogance!

Mrs. Gu wasn’t in the mood to waste words with them, affectionately holding Gu Yiyi’s hand, "Yiyi, don’t waste your time with them, mom still has to take you to choose an evening bag."

Gu Yiyi’s expression improved slightly, obediently linking arms with Mrs. Gu as they left.

Gu Zhi’s face remained expressionless, while Father Qin, Mrs. Qin, and Qin Ji looked at Gu Zhi with concern.
