Day 76 Valentine's Day Tour (2)

Ai Fei took a deep breath and forced himself to stay away from the lady: "Yes, Miss Kelly, I think, maybe you will like the several clothing I am designing."

"……………” Grace chuckled: "Then, what are we waiting for?"

"Oh no, Miss Kelly, the design I mentioned is just on the drawings. There are no formal ready-to-wear. If you want, you can book it after I launch these outfits."

Grace pouted her red lips like a child who couldn't get a beloved gift: "Even if you are an old friend, don't you want me to get one as a gift?"

Looking at her pouting red lips, Ai Fei's heart hopped a few times in a bad mood, but finally shook his head: "All I can do is to treat you as my first important customer, leave your data, and be the first to make it for you after my clothing is launched. But now, I'm sorry."

"Okay, then." Grace stopped insisting: "So, can you let me see your design?"

"Of course." Ai Fei could not refuse this request. He walked to his desk, took out a few samples of his own clothing and handed it over: "You can choose from it. If there are any one you think you are satisfied with, we will tailor it for you."

Grace has a deep understanding of Ai Fei's talent. She doesn't mention the impact of the new style clothing she had seen in Los Angeles mentioned earlier. It was just that the 12 evening gowns that were booked here for the first time, which made her a social darling. This is not counting, because the occasions she often attends, Grace even needs to understand how much the response her design has caused in the upper class than Ai Fei herself! Not only herself, but many actresses including Rita Hayworth and Betty Davis have regarded his design as a must-have clothing for grand occasions.

However, unlike her, these people's clothing seems to be customized from a place called Turner's boutique house, rather than Ai Fei's brand house. After the lady learned from the side, she realized that the man named Turner bought his design drawings and used them to make and sell them by themselves.

Although she didn't understand this kind of business operation very well, she still had the basic knowledge. There were still some. When she heard the news, she was a little surprised: Since this design was sold to others, why did he still make it by himself? This seems to be not very law-abiding, right?

However, she later discovered anomalies: her clothes were the same as those of them. The clothes others bought in Turner's store seemed the same at first glance, but there was still a difference in the details. Not to mention the others, it was just a low-key and gorgeous oyster gauze long skirt. What Ai Fei made for her was different from others: Ai Fei added a crow's feet design to the newly designed clothing, so that when the lady put on this long skirt, she was more like a huge goldfish swimming back and forth in the pond.

Such changes in details are absolutely, absolutely more important than others. They can attract the attention of other people present - Grace also likes this effect that can attract the attention of the entire audience.

As mentioned in the previous article, Grays picked up his new design and looked at it carefully in the afternoon sun: After three fashion shows, Ai Fei's design is more bold and avant-garde. A suit that is only half the size of an ordinary lady's top looks like it is for a 5.6-year-old girl, but its style is definitely not something that children of this age can use and buy.

The main design of grass green, paired with a light purple embellishment, looks trendy and dynamic. The only regret is that there is only one top for this design, but there is no skirt or trousers that can be matched with it? Grace doesn't know much about design, but she still knows what it is, "Mr. Ike, is this...Is this an unfinished work?"

Ai Fei looked at it: "No, it's not an unfinished work. This is a formal top. Well, in fact, this design can be worn with many types of bottoms, but I personally..." He took the pattern from the lady's hand and searched for it a few times: "I personally like this combination the most."

Grace took it over curiously: "This..."

"This is a lou navel dress. The design takes into account the special features. Well, to be precise, it is customized for women with very proud figures and very confident figures. Believe me, the responses such clothing may cause in the market are beyond everyone's designs. Can you imagine? In the hot summer, wearing such clothing to produce healthy wheat-colored skin and walking on the streets will attract a high rate of return?"

"Return rate?" Grace turned around with a funny look and looked at her assistant and agent: "Did you hear it? Are he talking about Return rate? Is it the kind of meaning you understand?"

"Miss Kelly?"

"Okay. If you can arrange for these apparels to be available, I want to customize one of them all. Is that OK?"

"Of course." Ai Fei nodded with a smile: "Oh, the time is up. Miss Kelly, is it my honor to invite you to lunch?"

Grace smiled the same way: "Yes, you can."

The sunny restaurant on the top floor of the Empire State Building, the lamp stand hanging outside the windows that was ready to light up at night blocked some of the sunlight, and the light cast from the gap made the restaurant at noon look a bit bizarre.

Ai Fei and Grace sat down face to face and took the menu: "I want a Marseille fish soup, foie gras steak and Paris lobster; I want a steak, Provence fish soup, a chicken with no-needle stew, and a dessert, a bottle of Keego champagne."

"Yes, Ms. Kelly, sir."

Watching the waiter walk away, Ai Fei smiled strangely: "Does the waiters in the United States know you?"

Grace shook her head helplessly and took out the cigarette and mouthpiece from her bag: "If you meet a fanatical movie fan, I believe you won't envy anyone who knows you."

Ai Fei took out the lighter from his pocket and lit a cigarette for her: "I haven't seen you for a long time, are you okay?"

"Thank you, I'm fine. I'm preparing for a new film called "The Country Girl". Well, has anyone ever told you that actors are not as easy to do as they seem?"

"Actually any job is the same. In my opinion, there is no easy job in the world, only the job you want to do."

Grace held her cheek with her hands holding her cigarette, and wisps of blue smoke rose from her ears: "Is this a philosophy from the East? Or some metaphor that I don't understand?"

Ai Fei looked at her in a daze, and for a while he didn't say anything. He just looked at her quietly until the dishes brought by the waiter, and then he turned his eyes away.

The champagne has a strong aroma and bubbles that make people feel refreshed and teased their appetite. Ai Fei picked up the wine glass: "Miss Kelly, I wish you a happy Valentine's Day."

"Thank you, Mr. Ike." Grace picked up the wine glass and touched him.

Ai Fei took a sip of wine and put down the cup: "Miss Kelly?"

"Hmm?" Grace was about to cut the steak with a knife and fork, but saw that he looked at him seriously and had to put down the tableware: "Yes?"

"At a moment like this, on a day like this, you can take time to have dinner with me, well, I'm grateful."

Hearing his words so formally, Grace found it a little funny: "As your thanks, can you tell me about you? I would like to hear my friend tell him his story! Well, an Asian friend, do you seem to be my first Asian friend?"

Ai Fei smiled: "Miss Kelly, I never knew you had a hobby in this regard?"

"So would you like to say it?"

"My story is actually very simple. There are mothers, fathers, and me." Ai Fei looked at the girl opposite with a smile. No matter how he looked, he seemed to be joking with her: "I came to the United States from Japan and started my time in the United States... Well, it can be considered a entrepreneurship."

Grace was extremely charming and flirtatiously blank: "Is this what you have experienced in your more than 20 years of life? Or are you perfunctory to me?"

"Okay okay." Ai Fei had to surrender: "I don't want to talk to anyone about my life in Japan, but I just don't want to be seen as an arrogant maniac from the East."

"Arrogant maniac?"

"Yes." Ai Fei nodded formally and his expression was very serious: "You may not know how successful I am in Japan. It can be said that my success in Japan is greater than in the United States."

"Hehe!" Grace smiled uncontrollably: "I believe you now. You are indeed an arrogant maniac. Sorry, I have no intention of offending you."

"I know, I know completely." Ai Fei was unwilling to give any specific explanation. She just let it go if she didn't believe it: "Then, Miss Kelly, tell me about you? You already know my story, it's time..."

"Hey, you have hardly started yet! How can I say that I already know your story?"

"I've said it. It's just that you don't want to believe it."

"As long as you stop talking about how successful you are in Japan, I will trust you."

Ai Fei felt very depressed. He was clearly telling the truth, but the other party didn't believe it at all. It seemed that he could only lie to her: "That's right, Miss Kelly, I live in a very ordinary Japanese family. Well, my home is in Tokyo, the capital of Japan. When the war was at its peak, I had to go to bed and wake up every day in the air raid shelter, listening to the constant roar of planes in the sky and the dust that shaking when the bombs fell. What I thought in my heart was to be able to live and see the dawn of peace!"

He just told the truth that Grace didn't believe it, and the other party believed it: "I'm sorry, I... I'm very sorry for your experience."

"Don't!" Ai Fei picked up the knife and fork for the second time and began to cut the meat: "Don't feel sorry for my experience. On the contrary, I am very glad that I have had such a time, because such an experience made me realize that all difficulties can be overcome. Of course, the premise is to survive the arrival of such difficulties that can threaten human life."

Grace recalled his words and her face became a little dim: "Maybe you haven't encountered real difficulties yet?"

"What did you say?"

"No, nothing. Oh, by the way, I've read the magazine's interview with you, and I didn't know until then that's when you know that you are only 21 years old this year?"

"Yes. Is there anything wrong with this?"
