There was already a long line at the entrance of the Blue Suede Clothing Store, and the people in the line were all noblewomen dressed in splendid attire. It was as if they were going to attend a banquet, attracting the attention of passersby.
Although these noblewomen were smiling and greeting each other, the atmosphere wasn't as harmonious as it seemed.
Everyone had heard that the dress that Young Mistress Gloria had worn the day before was a limited edition dress. There was only one dress of each color, so there were at most a dozen or so dresses. There were already over 20 people lining up at the entrance, and the line was still getting longer and longer. No one knew who would be able to pick the most stunning dress.
At this moment, everyone present was a competitor.
A carriage slowly drove over from the distance. Gloria opened the curtain and walked out. When she saw the noblewomen standing at the entrance of the Suede, she couldn't help but be slightly surprised. However, she quickly reacted and got out of the carriage. She smiled apologetically and said, "I didn't think that madams and young ladies would come so early. I've been neglectful."
"How could that be? Miss Gloria already came very early. It's just that we were impatient and came even earlier." A noblewoman said with a smile. Her smile was very sincere.
"Yes, but Miss Gloria, you said that we can order dresses today. Since there are so many of us here, can you make a few more dresses for us? At least let each of us get one." The noblewoman at the end of the line said. She looked a little nervous. She thought that she had arrived early, but she didn't expect that these people would already line up in the time it took to put on makeup.
"Thank you for your understanding, but the number of dresses will be determined by the color. If there is a color that everyone likes, then it would be best. If it's a pity that there isn't any, our store has two other dresses that are also very good. Madams and young ladies can also try them." Gloria slightly shook her head. She had no intention of relenting on this matter.
Mamy's had its own rules and principles, so it had a special place in the hearts of the customers.
She wanted to make Suede into a clothing store like Mamy's, so she had to have principles and rules. Otherwise, these rich and meddlesome ladies would become the biggest trouble in the future.
Gloria learned from Meg that she shouldn't spoil her guests.
"I see."
When the madams heard this, their faces were filled with disappointment and joy.
They were disappointed because they didn't think that they would be able to choose a color that they liked, while they were elated because according to Gloria, as long as they could choose a dress, there wouldn't be a second dress in Chaos City that was of the same color as hers.
Being unique was what they valued the most.
"Madams, please come in. We'll choose the dresses according to the order of the queue." Gloria said with a smile. She knocked on the door and said a few words to the person inside. The closed door was soon opened, and a waitress with dark circles under her eyes came out to greet them. She then led them into the restaurant.
…
In the kitchen, Meg was frying a steak with a serious expression, and the aroma of beef wafted out of the kitchen.
Yabemiya took a deep sniff, and her eyes shone with concern as she said, "It smells so good, but I don't drink alcohol. If Boss uses alcohol to cook steak, will I get drunk after eating it?"
"Ugly Duckling got drunk after just a small bite last night," Amy said as she stroked Ugly Duckling's head.
"Is it that bad?" Yabemiya's eyes widened with a conflicted expression as she said, "My alcohol tolerance is about the same as Ugly Duckling's. If I get drunk after just one bite, then I won't be able to work later."
"Am I that good at drinking?" Barbara was a little skeptical. She had eaten an entire steak the night before, but she didn't feel anything at all, and had gone upstairs to sleep with a clear mind.
"It shouldn't be too big of a problem. Amy was fine even after eating it." Sally took a glance at Ugly Duckling, and her gaze fell on the pair of little wings on its back as she asked with a perplexed expression, "Why is there a pair of little wings on its back?"
Yabemiya leaned over to take a closer look upon hearing that, and also asked with a curious expression, "Could it be … that it's really going to become a swan in the future?"
"It should be a magic beast from your world, right? I can't sense any magic power from its body, though. "Barbara appraised Ugly Duckling with an appraising expression.
"Meow ~" Ugly Duckling let loose a fearful cry as it was being scrutinized by everyone, and it didn't dare to move in Amy's arms.
"Here's a black pepper steak." Meg made his way out of the kitchen with a tray, and placed a portion of steak in front of everyone.
"Wow, it smells so good, and it's so delicious!" Yabemiya stared at the steak in front of her with amazement on her face. The entire steak was placed on a plate with a vibrant side dish, and the rich aroma wafting through the air made her salivate involuntarily.
This was the perfect combination of the aroma of beef and wine, as well as a unique aroma.
This aroma was like a kitten that was constantly tugging at one's heartstrings, and it made one want to explore just what kind of delicious flavor was hidden within this steak.
"This aroma is so special. It's even richer than the wine brewed from the Spring of Life that Father loves. Even those who don't like to drink won't find it repulsive in the slightest. In this dish, it's like a type of spice that adds a unique flavor to the beef." Sally closed her eyes and took a deep sniff, upon which her eyes also lit up.
I had a good sleep after eating this steak yesterday, and I feel like my body has become a little better after waking up this morning. It seems to be even more effective than roast beef kebabs. Perhaps I can test that out again today, Barbara thought to herself as she looked at the steak in front of her.
"Let's eat," Meg said with a smile as he picked up Amy's steak and prepared to cut it open for her.
"Father, Amy can do it herself. Teacher Luna told me that I have to do my own things, including eating," Amy said with a serious expression as she picked up her own knife and fork. She looked at Meg with a serious expression.
Meg hesitated momentarily at the sight of Amy's serious expression before placing the steak back in front of Amy with a smile, and said, "Alright, then Amy can eat it herself. Be careful when you use your knife and fork."
"Okay, okay." Amy nodded with elation as she pressed down on the steak with her fork before carefully cutting it open with her knife.
Meg sliced off a piece of beef and dipped it in the black pepper sauce before placing it into his mouth. His taste buds danced on the tip of his tongue as he tasted it.
Yabemiya and Sally copied Meg and also sliced off a piece of beef before placing it into their mouths at almost the same time as Barbara.
"Oh! What delicious beef! " Sally's eyes immediately lit up. After swallowing the beef, she felt a surge of heat surge toward her chest, which was even more incredible to her. "This feeling! Could it be that … this steak actually has the effect of promoting puberty?! "
"Even though I'm still young, but … it really does feel hot there!" Barbara's eyes also lit up.
"Slash!"
