"This one!" Xiao Man stood in front of a T-shirt, pointed at it and said, "You can wear this one."
"You think I can wear it?"
"You can! This one is for you, Iāll buy the smaller one, and we can wear matching outfits, okay?"
"Okay." He agreed without a second thought.
Xiao Man let out a chuckle and said, "Why do you always say yes to everything I say? Canāt you refuse me just once? If you keep spoiling me like this, what if I turn spoiled rotten?"
Itās as if, no matter what she decides, he supports it unconditionally; as long as she says it, itās right.
"Iām happy to."
Just then, another couple walked by, and the guy said in annoyance, "Buying matching cups is alright, using them at home with no one seeing. But matching shirts, whatās up with that?"
The conversation caught Xiao Manās attention.
She was also someone who bought matching cups and then matching shirts...
Still holding onto a matching shirt.
The girlfriend was trying to persuade, "Couples should wear matching outfits! How else would people know weāre a couple?"
The guy said, "Who says you have to wear matching outfits to be a couple? Weāre walking hand in hand, everyone can see weāre a couple, and didnāt we also buy matching rings? Thatās obvious enough; why wear matching clothes?"
"But I want to wear them."
"But I donāt want to!" The guy said impatiently, "Are you silly? Wearing matching outfits... Oh, my God, just imagining myself wearing that on the street makes my hair stand up! Itās disgusting... Iām telling you, men hate wearing matching outfits! I donāt believe any man willingly wants to wear them."
Xiao Man was stunned hearing this.
Her hand holding the T-shirt stiffened for a moment.
She really was looking at the problem from her own perspective, not realizing men are so resistant to matching outfits?
Listening to the guyās words, understanding dawned on Xiao Man, and she quietly put the T-shirt back where it belonged.
"On second thought, itās not that great, letās go look somewhere else." She scratched her head.
Letās pretend she didnāt say anything...
Before her hand could let go, a large hand grasped hers, put the T-shirt into the shopping cart, checked again, and selected the right size for her and put it in.
He knew what she was hesitating about, lowered his head and kissed the back of her hand, "Thanks for picking, I like it a lot."
Xiao Man was taken aback, "But didnāt he say men all hate..."
"He canāt speak for all men, he doesnāt like it, thatās his issue, but I like it," he said softly, taking her hand, "I like you, so I like everything about you."
The unexpected confession made Xiao Manās heart feel as if a warm current had been injected, feeling cozy.
Xiao Man smiled, "Well, then we wonāt wear them out, theyāll be pajamas at home."
"Itās okay to wear them out, I enjoy letting the whole world know youāre mine."
As the happy couple left, the other couple was close to tearing apart, "See, her boyfriend is willing! You simply donāt love me! Break up!"
Performing their breakup drama that repeats three hundred sixty-five days a year.
...
At checkout, the two stood side by side, attracting attention from the surrounding queues; people in front also turned to look at them, with constant chatter.
Xiao Man was famous all over the country, having acted in various films and TV shows, with audiences of all ages.
