Chapter 224: The Young Lady's Service
"Sir, when buying climbing shoes, you shouldn't buy them too large, you can choose one size smaller than your usual size."
The young lady saw that the handsome guy was asking very seriously, not as if he was joking with her.
She immediately kindly provided an answer.
"Sir, how about I fetch a pair for you to try on?"
"As long as you can fit into them, that's fine. When climbing, your big toe should be pressing against the inside, it can't be stretched out."
"The tighter the shoe, the more stable it will be when exerting force."
Su Mu nodded, not feeling that the young lady's extensive explanation was bothersome.
For Su Mu, who had no climbing experience, that was kind-hearted of her, wasn't it?
Although, Su Mu didn't necessarily need it.
But that didn't mean he should take her kindness for granted.
After telling her his usual shoe size, the young lady quickly took a shoe box from the cabinet behind the counter.
"Sir, try these on, and if you can get into them, we'll take this pair."
Normally, the climbing gym wouldn't allow customers to try on shoes.
After all, customers who spend so much money on climbing shoes are quite particular about cleanliness.
Shoes that have been tried on are considered as having been worn.
If other customers saw that, it definitely wouldn't be a good look.
But who can blame Su Mu for being no ordinary customer?
Even though Su Mu only bought two one-time tickets and didn't apply for any membership.
None of that stopped the young lady from treating Su Mu like the most esteemed customer.
In the era of looking at faces, having good looks is to be so capricious!
The other employees of the climbing gym didn't express any objections either.
Likely, just like the young lady, in the hearts of these employees, a super handsome guy deserved special treatment.
"That will do, I'll take this pair."
Su Mu tried them on and they met the young lady's criteria well.
"Go ask her what size shoes she wants."
He pointed towards Li Feiyu, who was standing not far away.
Su Mu knew that Li Feiyu probably wouldn't need to try them on.
If Li Feiyu weren't a seasoned climber, Su Mu simply wouldn't believe she would have proposed the bet.
"Alright."
Even if she didn't like the lady standing there, the climbing gym's young lady still approached Li Feiyu.
To the young lady, Feiyu was just another customer; she had encountered many quirky customers before.
She wouldn't care about one more Li Feiyu.
Naturally, the conversation between the two was very basic.
"Miss, that gentleman bought two pairs of climbing shoes, may I ask what size you need?"
"35"
"Got it."
The young lady wasn't sure if Li Feiyu knew what to pay attention to when wearing climbing shoes, nor did she think to remind Li Feiyu.
Not to mention offering to let her try them on like she did for Su Mu.
She just took out the size Li Feiyu specified, and the young lady held that shoe box, along with the shoes Su Mu had just tried on and now put back in the box, in her arms.
"Please, the three of you come inside."
The handsome guy had bought two tickets, and there were three people who came together.
This only meant that the middle-aged man who had been holding the girl's arm the whole time was not participating in the climbing activity.
Whether he participated was one thing, but the young lady still greeted all three to proceed inside the climbing gym.
"Sir, is this spot okay?"
Stopping in front of two climbing walls, the young lady politely asked for Su Mu's opinion.
All climbing walls inside the gym were more or less the same, so the young lady's question seemed somewhat redundant.
"It's fine."
Su Mu nodded, he only planned to compete with Li Feiyu in one match and had no significant demands.
"Check in at the climbing gym!"
"Ding! Successfully checked in at the climbing gym, reward obtained: Champion Climbing Skill!"
Li Feiyu planned to use her strengths to win in this bet.
Originally, Li Feiyu had no intention of making a fair bet with Su Mu.
Naturally, Su Mu also did not need to be particular about it.
He hadn't used his check-in opportunity today, which could be said to mean he came prepared.
As soon as the system's voice fell, Su Mu's mind began to automatically input various rock climbing techniques.
Of course, rock climbing is also a sport, where hands and feet definitely play a key role.
Su Mu's hands and feet also began to tremble at a speed invisible to the naked eye.
About a minute later, everything went still.
No one would have thought that in that short minute,
Su Mu had transformed from a young man who knew nothing about rock climbing into an expert climber.
One could say that even if a top professional climber were to compete with Su Mu now, Su Mu might not be at a disadvantage.
The only thing Su Mu lacked might be actual climbing experience.
Unfortunately, these were not issues for Su Mu, who now possessed Champion Climbing Skill and was reinforced by Champion Physical Fitness.
Now, Li Feiyu's climbing skills were simply not worth mentioning in Su Mu's eyes.
Thinking of using this strategy to stay by his side?
Su Mu thought Li Feiyu was being a bit too fanciful.
As long as it was something Su Mu didn't want, no matter what sneaky tricks you had, it wouldn't be possible to achieve.
Su Mu decided to give Li Feiyu a thorough lesson today.
It seemed like the experience at the golf course last time did not teach Li Feiyu anything.
Su Mu summarized a few rock climbing techniques in his mind.
The main points were footwork, center of gravity, side-pulls, using hand and foot at the same point, rhythm, and planning the route, these six points.
Lacking actual experience, Su Mu mentally rehearsed them quietly to himself.
He was completely confident in the skills provided by the system.
After all, he was only dealing with a mere Li Feiyu.
Su Mu did not take it too seriously.
He didn't feel the need to practice in person, believing Li Feiyu wasn't qualified for that.
Only opponents worthy of respect needed to be taken seriously.
For someone like Li Feiyu, Su Mu could defeat her just by relying on the system's reward.
It really wasn't worth spending too much effort on.
Without much talk, as the system check-in had been completed, Su Mu only wanted to finish this bet as quickly as possible.
He took the shoebox that held his climbing shoes from the young lady's hands.
Larger shoes naturally meant a much larger shoebox.
Su Mu didn't need to ask which shoebox was his, he just took the larger one.
"Sir, do you need help?"
The young lady handed over another shoebox that was obviously much smaller to Li Feiyu.
Without any extra words, not even an unnecessary glance at Li Feiyu.
Bending down, the young lady's service was very thorough.
Ordinarily, once the young lady had led a customer into the gym, she would have been able to leave directly.
There were specialized climbing staff inside, so there was no need for her to attend to customers there.
Still, that saying holds true: those with higher attractiveness enjoy different treatment.
Earlier, when trying on the shoes, the young lady had also helped, and Su Mu wasn't quite used to the climbing shoes yet.
Since the young lady was willing to provide enthusiastic service, Su Mu naturally would not decline.
Without Su Mu lifting a finger and with his tacit agreement, the young lady skillfully helped him put on the climbing shoes.
