Love Affairs in Melbourne-Chapter 300 - 295: Ungrateful

At the moment Master Y met the weight requirement, he simultaneously doomed himself.

Master Y’s action, after elegantly tossing his own power source away, never changed again.

Without energy, the robot turned into a "pile of worthless iron" with zero intelligence.

The host announced Master Y’s exact time of death with a face full of regret.

It was just like a doctor announcing a patient’s time of death, precise down to the minute.

The music for the robot dance resounded once again, and the phrase "stupid humans" that Master Y said right before his complete shutdown was transformed into various languages and integrated into the music repeatedly.

The "dead robot’s" mockery appeared especially hilarious with the music and DJ’s accompaniment.

But that wasn’t all. Two Asian men, whose clothes could be configured to read "robot designer brothers who have never seen a woman," followed the spotlight to the scene of Master Y’s "death."

The fonts on their trendy clothes were specially designed.

When they reached the spot where Master Y would "live forever," brothers Li Tianle and Li Tianyou didn’t hesitate to pick up Master Y.

Each of them also grabbed one of the shoes that Master Y had thrown away and set them on two separate chairs. fгeewёbnoѵel.cσm

Beneath the two "chairs," 3D screens displayed the weight of the shoes, now measured in grams at 35g, not kilograms.

The brothers carried Master Y to the place where Yan Yan had just taken her bow and began to repair the now officially "declared dead" Master Y.

After being brought back from the dead, Master Y forgot all about his "former life." The "robot designer brothers who had never seen a woman" dressed Master Y in trendy clothes sporting "her" own big name.

The upper garment featured Master Y written in a graffiti style.

The back of the lower garment featured as large as possible the logo of the Y.Y. brand.

The "Big White Spot," who had been naked up to this point, showed no intention to continue dancing after dressing up but dove straight into his main job.

Master Y began evaluating the data of the clothes he donned, broadcasting each measurement onto the big screen to match it with the original design data, ultimately determining if they met the standards for sale.

While Master Y worked diligently, Yan Yan slipped into special clothes designed for the "creative director who annihilates humanity" and, barefoot, ran back onto the stage.

She ran to the "chair," effortlessly slipped into a pair of size 34 shoes, and

then ran back to the area where the Robot Brothers and Master Y were, pulling along with her two other designers from Maison Yan II. Master Y, with one hand on each of the Robot Brothers, completed the final bow of the fashion show.

Since its inception, Maison Yan II had always adopted a restrained yet subtly luxurious style.

The creative director of this haute couture house had never possessed even a hint of humor.

The act of self-deprecation in the bow, bordering on spoof, genuinely surprised those unaware of the context.

Seasoned fashion journalists were beginning to understand that the whole "play" just performed was to confirm the relationship between Maison Yan II and Y.Y.

Rumors about Y.Y and Maison Yan II had been circulating two months ago, but no one had officially responded.

After today’s press conference, there were already many media outlets ready to "catch" the creative director of Maison Yan II to confirm the real relationship between the two brands.

Both Maison Yan II and Y.Y had maintained much mystery and clearly preferred not to link the two brands publicly.

Especially Y.Y, which was notably recognized for its unique "robotic creative director".

Today’s show was not at all in line with the established image of Y.Y and Maison Yan II as perceived by "insiders".

There were many questions among the attending fashion media journalists.

What had linked these two brands together?

Had there been an acquisition, or had there been a complete shift in marketing strategy?

What was the next step?

Was Y.Y planning to go public?

Combining haute couture and a trendy brand, were they not worried about affecting the perceived value of Maison Yan II’s Haute Couture?

Such a twist-and-turn filled press conference would have been explosive news even for other fashion houses, let alone for these two brands which had previously deliberately avoided journalists and shared no stylistic similarities.

If Yan Yan was the creative director for both Maison Yan II and Y.Y, then this newcomer who seemed to have burst onto the haute couture scene overnight was more than just a "mysterious background".

Journalists were desperate to have a face-to-face chat with this "creative director who annihilates humanity".

Anyone who managed to secure an interview at this time would definitely have a major exclusive and a headline story.

Many of Maison Yan II’s "regular customers" were also interested in these shoes.

When the final "farce" was not even concluded, customers had already approached the Show Room asking the staff of Maison Yan II how much it would cost to buy out the design of these shoes.

However, as soon as the bow ended, the "creative director who annihilates humanity" had disappeared.

The resolution of these issues was naturally left to Allegro to handle.

Not only journalists but also Yan Yan’s regular customers had grievances against her.

The journalists, who initially intended to give Maison Yan II some favorable coverage due to the news of the relationship between Maison Yan II and Y.Y provided by Yan Yan, planned to also report on the emphasized "light as a feather" sports shoes after interviewing Yan Yan.

Those heavyweight rich customers who had not relied on buyers and had come in person to see Yan Yan’s show began to feel dissatisfaction towards Yan Yan.

Yan Yan had always placed great importance on her private relationships with these customers; unlike other brand creative directors who were busy dealing with the media and invited celebrities after shows, she focused all her attention on her genuine customers.

This was why they were willing to come in person to Yan Yan’s grand shows.

Now, not only had she disappeared without a word, but Allegro had jubilantly told enthusiastic buyers that the "lightweight" shoes Yan Yan had worn last were not part of this season’s haute couture collection and were not for sale.

These longstanding haute couture customers had grown accustomed and could accept being one step later than others, watching designs they liked being bought out by someone else first.

But for Maison Yan II to name shoes featured in the show as not for sale was simply...

Ungrateful.
