Chapter 237: Chapter 237: Love It, GK Superfan
Lian-er looked inside and saw a slender woman in a beige trench coat.
Lian-er gathered her courage and walked in: "Excuse me..."
The woman turned around, and her beautiful and exquisite appearance shocked Lian-er, even as a beauty blogger.
Ah! What a beautiful lady, her skin is so good, it seems like she’s not even wearing makeup! Wow! Wow! You can’t even see her pores, her skin looks so hydrated, like you could squeeze water out of it, and her eyes are as bright as the stars in the sky.
Did this lady grow up on beauty? To have such perfect skin and celestial looks?
Ivana Monroe noticed the unfamiliar girl staring at her dumbfounded and smiled gently: "Please go ahead."
Lian-er’s heart was captured by her smile, almost falling for her tender expression. How could this beautiful lady be so gentle!
Lian-er swallowed nervously and shyly asked, "Miss, are you an insider at GK here? I wanted to ask... Is your GK the one with the Yiren Magazine cover fashion?"
She was a bit nervous inside; what if this lady’s GK isn’t that one? That would be so awkward.
But for the sake of herself and her followers, she had to ask shamelessly to be sure.
Lian-er’s heart raced, feeling nervous, full of anticipation, but also braced for a cold response from the beautiful lady.
Ivana Monroe uttered a surprised "Ah?"
Lian-er’s heart sank to the bottom, disappointed - so it’s not!
Lian-er prepared to apologize.
Ivana Monroe smiled and said, "Yes, it’s the GK you think it is."
Ivana was just too surprised at first, not reacting immediately since her shop had just been renovated and hadn’t launched products or announced it publicly.
She was so surprised when a girl suddenly came in to ask.
Lian-er went crazy with joy, discreetly gesturing a "V" with her fingers.
Lian-er’s eyes sparkled as she asked, "That’s great, I really love GK’s fashion. I’m a die-hard fan of GK. Miss, could you tell me... roughly when will the products be available?"
Ivana Monroe smiled and said, "The day after tomorrow!"
Lian-er said that she’d come first thing the morning the day after tomorrow; she’s afraid she’d be too late to buy it.
Lian-er asked again, "Why not tomorrow? The place is already renovated. If you stock it tonight, you could open for business tomorrow, right? Why wait until the day after tomorrow?"
Ivana answered softly, "The place just got renovated, and the formaldehyde smell is too strong. Let’s purify the air for a day first!"
Lian-er paused, finally noticing two air purifiers in the store and boxes of upright black charcoal on the floor.
Lian-er felt so touched, thinking this beautiful lady is so considerate. Generally, shopkeepers are only after profit, stocking goods right after renovations and eager for customers to help absorb the formaldehyde and benzene.
This beautiful lady is different; she cares about the customers’ health.
"Okay, miss, I’ll come the day after tomorrow."
After Lian-er left, she secretly took photos of the air purifiers and charcoal inside the store, and also took a picture of Ivana Monroe’s back.
Lian-er posted the photos on Weibo: "Confirmed, it’s the GK we absolutely love. Miss GK is beautiful inside and out, with two air purifiers and charcoal battling formaldehyde in three ways. Opens the day after tomorrow. Address: xxx..."
ChipsLover: "Whoa! Whoa! Whoa! It’s true! Getting my money ready, I’m going on a shopping spree the day after tomorrow!"
LemonNotSour: "Haha! I’ve waited until my heart’s weary; the day after tomorrow is a good day."
SunshineFairyCat: "Why is it opening the day after tomorrow and not tomorrow? My money is burning a hole in my pocket, I want to buy now, wah wah wah..."
SpicyPepper: "It’s just a few clothes, is it really necessary? Lian-er, did you get benefits from GK? Promoting them so hard?"
ChipsLover: "@SpicyPepper, what’s with you? Trying to attack my Lian-er, huh? Haters, get lost, don’t make me angry, I scare even myself when I get mad."
SpicyPepper: "@ChipsLover. I’m not a Lian-er hater; I’ve bought lipsticks and eyebrow pencils she promoted. I just think GK’s clothes aren’t as good as you claim. Plus, don’t you feel GK’s marketing is so pretentious? Putting two air purifiers, a bit of charcoal, all to sell a considerate persona for customer health. Do you think formaldehyde and benzene can be purified in a day? I advise everyone not to fall for it and rush to help GK absorb the formaldehyde and benzene the day after tomorrow. If you harm your body, get cancer, you’ll regret it and GK won’t pay your medical bills."
SunshineFairyCat: "Oh my! Where did this SpicyPepper come from? So considerate of us, thank you for your concern, but we don’t need you to worry about our health. I haven’t heard of any mall opening where customers got cancer from formaldehyde and benzene. Malls have a lot more formaldehyde and benzene, right? What’s GK’s opening anyway?"
ChipsLover: "Exactly, the air purifiers seem to be an imported brand, Orland. Two of them cost at least nearly twenty thousand, right? If a business is willing to spend money for the health of customers, that’s a kind of persona I like."
Though many continue to speak against SpicyPepper, there’s a small number of fans led by her, including haters.
DurianStinky: "I think SpicyPepper isn’t wrong; GK is pretentious, and those effects are just bought. The clothes are only so-so. What’s a twenty thousand purifier worth? GK even invited the great Phil, whose endorsements are known to be sky-high! I say those clothes are tailored for Phil. On him, they’re celestial; on you, they’re ghostly, haha..."
Upon seeing comments bashing GK, Lian-er got visibly upset, @DurianStinky: "You can bash me, but please don’t bash GK, OK? I’ll wear GK’s fashion and stream live the night after tomorrow."
DurianStinky @Lian-er: "I’ll watch your stream, looking forward to your ugly look."
Suddenly, the comments exploded, with Lian-er’s loyal fans starting to insult DurianStinky, even exposing them as a Lian-er hater.
Lian-er closed Weibo, deciding not to watch anymore, only making her angry.
She would prove her taste the day after tomorrow.

Kiki Jennings watched Lian-er’s Weibo, feeling quite upset. She was the "SpicyPepper," and had always followed Lian-er’s Weibo because Lian-er was good at makeup and the products she promoted were reliable, always allowing her to buy what she wanted.
Unexpectedly, today, Lian-er’s Weibo post felt like a fly in the ointment for her.
The back in the photo, isn’t it Ivana Monroe?
She’d recognize Ivana Monroe even if she turned to ash.
Kiki Jennings never thought that Ivana Monroe’s lousy company and the shoddy designs could make Lian-er and so many fans go crazy over them.
