Chapter 1001 The LN FASHION (Part Three)
"What do you mean! There''s none left of course! I don''t have an amazing job like you. Do you have any
idea how high the prices are now? You don''t expect me to be well off, do you? You know what, it really
hurts me when you say things like that. Ever since I graduated, mom has halved my pocket money. I
couldn''t even keep my head above water if dad didn''t help me out. Every time I go out, I have to pinch
pennies and watch what I spend, in case I run out of my money at bill time and make a fool of myself. I
can''t remember exactly how many dresses have struck my fancy. The problem is, I''m too poor to buy
them!" ire was hurt. She couldn''t understand what her mom was thinking. Why did she have to find
a job now? Shouldn''t she be able to enjoy her free time for a while before going to work? She was just
fresh out of school! She shouldn''t have pushed her so hard.
"I don''t think mom''s off-base. You''re an adult and should be disciplined if you don''t know how to act
properly and be responsible for yourself," said Kevin gloatingly, his words far from sympathetic. His
words also came as a surprise to Leena. Because she thought that all brothers in the world would act
like Mr. Cold, who hadvished all his love and affection on his sister a lot. He''d do his best to make
her happy. But it seemed that Kevin was doing quite the opposite. This made her realize that there
could be more than one way for a brother to show that he loved his sister. Superficially, Kevin had been
hard on ire and they had a bad rtionship. However, the truth was that they adored each other,
and Kevin was only showing how much he cared by being strict with her. It was different from her
intimate connection with Mr. Cold, but it was also love between siblings.
"I knew it!" snorted ire, "I knew you wouldn''t take my side! Fine, I don''t need your support as long as
you buy me clothes. Here we are, and get out now!" said ire, looking at the busy street in front of
her. It was full of dazzling luxury goods. Although things were very expensive here, it attracted many
buyers who darted to and fro through the crowds. This just proved that there were more rich people
than ire had expected.
"Great. Thanks ire. There we go, Leena." Opening the door, Kevin got out of the car first. He soon

turned around and gently extended his hand to Leena. To his surprise, Leena again ignored him. She
opened the opposite door and got out, turning a blind eye to Kevin''s hand. He was left feeling torn
betweenughing and crying. Staring at his empty hand, he found that he could do nothing but ept
the fact. He then shook his head helplessly. It was clear that Leena had decided to push him away. If
he hadn''t figured it out by now, then he would be really oblivious.
"So this is the high street of the capital? It looks very nice," Leena eximed. Looking around, she
found that the urban environment here was far better than that of their city, and looked like a rich ce.
The area was also really clean. Though the city had some gray to it due to pollution, the buildings here
looked like they had been scrubbed clean. But every coin has two sides. As Leena saw it, it was a bit
crowded due to a dense poption. It was still morning, when many people were indoors. Leena could
imagine the street being even more jammed at noon.
"Of course, that''s what makes it the capital city," ire replied hearing Leena''spliment. It was the
first time that she talked to her without disdain, though she still sounded proud with a sense of
superiority.
"I can see that. Let''s go now, I can''t wait," Leena urged. Leena loved going shopping, even window-
shopping, for it was easier for her to find inspiration in the process. After all, art was closely connected
with reality and it imitated life.
Kevin breathed a sigh of relief when seeing them get on well. He didn''t have to worry about them
getting into it, and fighting all the time. Even though Leena was courteous and reasonable enough,
she''d been catered to all her life, and was the baby of the family. So Kevin was afraid that she might
lose her temper if ire went too far. As Leena''s husband and ire''s brother, he thought it would be
better if he kept an eye out and stepped in if things got too hairy.
Rxed, Kevin decided to grab his chance, as well as Leena''s hand. He held it so tightly that he was
sure she wouldn''t wriggle out of his grasp. He finally got the chance to enjoy a little lovers'' time for him
and Leena. Unfortunately, he got a bit too carried away and forgot about ire. The mischievous and
stubborn ire. The moment she saw them walking hand in hand, she went up indignantly and forced
their hands apart, ruining Kevin''s n.
"I want to go to LN FASHION first. All my friends have told me that ce is incredible. It is said that
clothes there are wonderful, and its designs are both attractive and elegant. Everyone''s going there.
Although it is a little bit expensive, I really want to have a look," ire said, pursing her lips. All she
thought about now was that shop. She didn''t notice Kevin''s grim expression. She kept looking at him
excitedly, as if she had done nothing to piss him off.
"Your friends like LN-brand clothes?" Leena really liked what she heard. ire seemed to be telling the
truth, and so Leena was overjoyed. As the designer of that very brand, she felt that there could be no
greater pleasure than knowing that people liked her designs.
"That''s for sure. But what a pity that I can barely buy a scrap of cloth there with the pittance I get from
my mother," ire said, sounding very disappointed. But this time, she noticed that Leena was
unusually excited, and she wondered why she would look so happy. Was it something she said?
"It can''t be that expensive!" Leena was quite confused now. Although it had be a world famous
brand, LN''s prices were much lower than simr brands. It was unlikely that even someone from an
affluent family couldn''t afford one. Leena frowned lightly, lost in thought. She had made some price
adjustments specially in ordance to popr consumption concept, so as to make this brand more
essible and increase people''s desire to buy. This strategy had been working very well under her
management. She now wondered whether the agents here were doing their job and pricing things
appropriately.
"Ohe off it! Don''t talk like that. You couldn''t know what I''m on about. LN is famous around the
world, so certainly its prices are higher. Please don''t lump it in with those cheap clothes of yours. You
can''t expect to own a LN at the same low price," blurted ire, squinting at Leena in contempt. Her
sense of superiority was brought back to life by Leena''s words. She really hated to see Leena pretend
to be an expert when she knew nothing at all. This made ire despise her even more.
