Chapter 1778: Chapter 1625: Stylist 1
Jian Shuangshuang lingered in this world for a very long time, a full three hundred years, and after three hundred years, Jian Shuangshuang ascended in a manner that released her from this world.
When Jian Shuangshuang left, this world’s entertainment industry had already developed to the point where variety shows and reality TV appeared, truly realizing the entertainment empire Jian Shuangshuang once envisioned.
Upon opening her eyes again, Jian Shuangshuang returned to modern society; she is now Tao Shuangshuang, a reincarnation that brought her so much distress, as she died for a man.
This world’s Tao Shuangshuang was originally a remarkable girl, a straight-A student in her youth, and a genius later on, who as an adult wanted to open her own studio and become a stylist.
But Tao Shuangshuang was an orphan, relying on the state to study, but entrepreneurship couldn’t rely on the state. Tao Shuangshuang thought it over and decided she had excellent talent and interest in styling, and should use this to her advantage.
Thus, Tao Shuangshuang chose a niche profession — professional shopping companion. This field has matured abroad, but domestically, it remains an industry mostly limited to personal image styling.
The reason Tao Shuangshuang chose this field was particularly simple: shopping companions are paid by the hour, and the hourly rate is about five hundred yuan. Even the novice companions earn two to three hundred yuan per hour.
Tao Shuangshuang has a keen fashion sense and exceptional pairing vision; the clothes she puts together for her clients are perfectly suited, and she quickly made a name for herself.
As her reputation grew, Tao Shuangshuang’s client base increased, and it was during this time that Tao Shuangshuang met a very handsome male client, Min Bowen.
Min Bowen is not only handsome but also eloquent, very skilled at winning over girls; upon meeting Tao Shuangshuang, he confessed his feelings, claiming he fell in love at first sight.
Initially, Tao Shuangshuang did not want to bother with Min Bowen, but his attentiveness, warmth, and persistence wore her down, and after six months, she was won over by Min Bowen.
Tao Shuangshuang believed they were mutually affectionate, thinking they could spend their days happily together, but didn’t expect Min Bowen to be a playboy, enjoying only the pursuit.
Shortly after winning over Tao Shuangshuang, Min Bowen grew bored and began searching for new prey, which Tao Shuangshuang discovered, leading him to break up with her.
However, Min Bowen likely did not foresee Tao Shuangshuang’s transformation upon discovering his true nature. Outwardly, Tao Shuangshuang graciously accepted the breakup with Min Bowen.
But afterward, Tao Shuangshuang abandoned her plan to start a styling studio and dove headfirst into the business world, establishing a company rivaling Min Bowen’s family’s with five years of effort.
And once it grew, it specifically targeted Min Bowen’s family company, snatching markets and clients, forcing Min Bowen’s family company into a dead end.
Initially, the Min Family didn’t understand why Tao Shuangshuang attacked them, but Min Bowen knew; he was too guilty to speak at first, not believing Tao Shuangshuang could affect the Min Family.
Though Min Bowen was a playboy, he was capable at work, and he had a formidable father supporting him, making him quite confident.
Yet after successive hits on the family business from Tao Shuangshuang, Min Bowen’s confidence was finally shattered, leading him to plead, beg for mercy, and even attempt reconciliation hoping Tao Shuangshuang would spare the Min Family.
However, Tao Shuangshuang had long turned her love for Min Bowen into hatred, fixated on bankrupting the Min Family, avenging the emotional manipulation she suffered.
Despite Min Bowen’s desperate pleas for mercy, the family business was brought to bankruptcy by Tao Shuangshuang, and in despair, Min Bowen waited for Tao Shuangshuang on her commute.
Then Min Bowen floored his accelerator, colliding his car with the one Tao Shuangshuang was in, leaving no room for escape, intending to die together with Tao Shuangshuang.
The massive collision caused an explosion, in which Tao Shuangshuang perished, and in her last moments, she felt regret.
Tao Shuangshuang didn’t regret avenging Min Bowen, but regretted straying from her true desires.
She knew Min Bowen might not be a good match but couldn’t resist his antics, agreeing to be with him.
For a scoundrel, she gave up her beloved career, devoting her life to the Min Family, and if she could do it again, she’d only want to fulfill her dream of opening a styling studio.
After processing the memories, Tao Shuangshuang exhaled deeply; the current time she resides in is just after leaving school, preparing to become a shopping companion.
Today, Tao Shuangshuang is meeting her first client, introduced by her dormitory friend, Yao Jia, who happens to be Yao Jia’s aunt.
Yao Jia’s aunt is named Fang Qiweng, a high-level executive at a multinational company, very fashionable but with a less-than-ideal body, commonly referred to as having a stocky figure, making clothing hard to match.
Actually, Fang Qiweng isn’t too keen on having Tao Shuangshuang, a fresh graduate, style her clothes, as she doesn’t trust Tao Shuangshuang.
A young girl fresh from school, what does she understand about fashion, not to mention that Yao Jia’s friend Tao Shuangshuang is also an orphan.
It’s not that Fang Qiweng looks down on orphans, but fashion isn’t something less fortunate people can afford or nurture an appreciation for.
An orphan relying on scholarships for tuition would hardly have the money or leisure to focus on the fashion world, making it absurd for such a person to style clothes as a shopping companion.
Yet, Yao Jia is relentless, pestering Fang Qiweng for four to five days until Fang Qiweng begrudgingly agrees to let Tao Shuangshuang attempt styling her clothes.
Of course, Fang Qiweng’s actual intention was spending money to please her niece, as she has money and no boyfriend, wasting a few thousand yuan doesn’t hurt.
When Tao Shuangshuang went for the meeting, she wore simple denim jeans, a white shirt, a high ponytail, and sneakers, all embodying a minimalist style, looking good yet inexpensive.
Tao Shuangshuang dressed this way because she was broke, though she wanted to style herself more fashionably, given the shopping companion industry demands glamorous, stylish appearances.
One’s attire serves as both face and advertisement, offering direct insight into their styling prowess, but Tao Shuangshuang simply didn’t have the money for expensive, trendy clothes.
Fang Qiweng’s first impression meeting Tao Shuangshuang was that the girl dressed well, slightly reducing her disappointment since Tao Shuangshuang’s attire, though simple, perfectly matched her demeanor.
The key to outfit pairing isn’t how costly or exquisite the clothes are, but rather how fitting they are to a person’s temperament. This is crucial and difficult to achieve.
