Thank you, Blue Dragon, and friends whose hearts are no longer present, for your support!

Wang Xiaoqiang, unfamiliar with English and brands, didn't know he was wearing a Roman Suit that nearly cost four thousand yuan. In fact, he hadn't even glanced at the brand. After changing, he emerged from the fitting room to find two women staring at him, eyes sparkling. He looked at himself in the mirror and felt somewhat dazzling.

He also admired Xu Qingxue's unique eye for quality because the suit he was wearing not only fit perfectly but its style and color also greatly suited his temperament. He felt that the person in the mirror had truly shed his earthy aura, radiating a distinctly different kind of charm. It seemed the old saying "Clothes make the man" was not in vain.

He had never worn a suit from childhood till now, and wearing one for the first time felt a bit awkward.

Perhaps it was because the suit diluted his original essence. Although it looked nice, he still wanted to take it off.

Just as he began to try to remove the suit, Xu Qingxue quickly walked over, saying as she approached, "Hey, hey, don't take it off. You just put it on. Let me have a good look…"

Xu Qingxue came over to Wang Xiaoqiang, circled around him, examining him carefully to see if the suit had any defects, just like a meticulous and thoughtful wife.

After a thorough inspection and finding no issues with the suit, Xu Qingxue finally allowed Wang Xiaoqiang to take it off before instructing the salesperson to pack the suit.

"You pick your own clothes; I'll just pay for them." Wang Xiaoqiang said to Xu Qingxue with a self-deprecating smile, "I really have no eye for clothes."

Xu Qingxue smiled and nodded, then walked toward the casual clothing section. Used to wearing a uniform for work, Xu Qingxue wore casual clothes off duty, and Wang Xiaoqiang, carrying the suit, followed her.

The salesperson in the casual clothing section, having seen the "little couple" decisively buy a suit worth over three thousand yuan, knew they were generous. They immediately began to enthusiastically show them the clothes in that section, even pointing to a set of couple's hoodies, saying, "This set is the latest couple's hoodies that just arrived, super good-looking.

Do you two want to try them on…"

Saying this, it was clear the salesperson assumed Wang Xiaoqiang and Xu Qingxue were a couple. However, upon hearing the salesperson's words, they both appeared slightly uncomfortable, but it was true the couple's outfit looked very beautiful and matched well.

Xu Qingxue's eyes sparkled as she stared at the couple's outfit for women, clearly liking it a lot.

"This couple's outfit is very suitable for you both. I can give you a discount if you want," the salesperson continued.

Wang Xiaoqiang noticed how much Xu Qingxue liked the couple's outfit for women, but it was called "couple's outfit," so he felt embarrassed to speak up. So, Wang Xiaoqiang asked the salesperson, "Miss, can we just get one set of the women's outfit?"

The salesperson was slightly taken aback, then wore a strange smile, a bit helplessly spreading her hands, "We've never sold pieces of a couple's outfit separately here. I would need to check with our manager, and even then, there won't be any discount…"

"Please go ahead and take it down for us to try," Wang Xiaoqiang didn't want to listen to the salesperson's ramblings. Since he was buying clothes for Xu Qingxue, he wasn't concerned about the cost.

"Alright then!" The salesperson, upon hearing this, took down the women's outfit from the rack and handed it over.

Xu Qingxue indeed liked the style of the clothes; she really wanted to buy the entire couple's outfit but couldn't bring herself to say it, as she and Wang Xiaoqiang were not actually in a couple relationship.

Little did she expect Wang Xiaoqiang to be so observant, instantly noticing her desire and thinking so thoughtfully. At that moment, she gladly took the set of women's clothes and went into the fitting room to change.

When she came out again, both Wang Xiaoqiang and the salesperson were impressed. The salesperson complimented, "Sir, your girlfriend looks really beautiful! Why don't you take the men's outfit too? Wearing them together, you'd look so much more intimate!"

Wang Xiaoqiang was slightly tempted, but ultimately remained non-committal.

"Oh, isn't that Qingxue?"

While the salesperson was persuading Wang Xiaoqiang, down the aisle strode a man about thirty years old, dignified and slightly haughty, sporting black-rimmed glasses; he sounded very surprised.

Seeing her reflection in the mirror, Xu Qingxue looked up, and upon recognizing who it was, a flicker of discomfort flashed through her eyes, exclaiming in surprise, "What a coincidence, Director Jiangg is also at Great World."

"Yeah, I came here to buy some clothes and saw you by chance, so I decided to swing by. Wow, Qingxue, this outfit looks great on you, really suits your style!" said the man known as Director Jiang, his eyes hidden behind black-framed glasses occasionally sweeping over Xu Qingxue's graceful figure.

Wang Xiaoqiang frowned slightly. He couldn't deny that Director Jiang was a handsome and charismatic man, as evident from the dreamy glances of the two sales assistants, indicating his significant appeal to women.

However, Wang Xiaoqiang didn't like the way he looked at Xu Qingxue; his gaze wasn't pure and revealed a hint of a leery sentiment. Instead of feeling shy, Xu Qingxue rotated her body playfully and said, "I also think it's quite nice!"

Saying so, Xu Qingxue walked into the changing room to change her clothes.

"I am Little Xue's former colleague, Jiang Dapeng. We used to work together, and I was just transferred to the Eastern District Public Security Bureau as the director last year. And you are...?" As Xu Qingxue entered the changing room, Jiang Dapeng greeted Wang Xiaoqiang with a smile, his words carrying a hint of bragging and intimidation.

"I'm her friend, Wang Xiaoqiang." Wang Xiaoqiang replied indifferently.

"Oh, I didn't hear about Little Xue having a boyfriend," Jiang Dapeng feigned surprise, a flash of jealousy in his eyes. He was probing; Jiang Dapeng had always liked Xu Qingxue but had never gained her favor. Just now, he had come to Great World shopping with his girlfriend, when he unexpectedly saw Xu Qingxue entering this store arm-in-arm with a young man, arousing intense jealousy within him.

So, he found an excuse to leave his girlfriend and walked into the store alone.

"Just a regular friend," Wang Xiaoqiang stated.

"Oh, I see, that makes sense. I was wondering how I wouldn't know if Little Xue had a boyfriend. By the way, if it's not too forward to ask, may I inquire about Mr. Wang's occupation?" Jiang Dapeng glanced at Wang Xiaoqiang's dark face and his unfashionable attire, flashing a hint of disdain, though he kept up a courteous front, his words suggesting that he and Xu Qingxue were close.

"Uh, I'm a farmer," Wang Xiaoqiang said.

"No way! Mr. Wang, you're being too modest, aren't you? Not even willing to disclose where you work. Are you worried I might come to you for favors later?" Jiang Dapeng didn't believe Wang Xiaoqiang, thinking how could Xu Qingxue possibly know a farmer?

"I have no reason to lie to you. Little Xue knows me best. You can ask her yourself once she comes out." Between the lines, Wang Xiaoqiang had made a counterattack, indicating his close relationship with Xu Qingxue.

Damn! No way, he's really a country bumpkin! And it seems like his relationship with Xu Qingxue is not just ordinarily close.

Jiang Dapeng felt immediately unbalanced upon hearing this. If this was indeed the case, he felt like jumping off a building.

Jiang Dapeng wanted to keep asking, but Xu Qingxue walked out of the changing room. "Miss, this dress looks really stunning on you, you see..." the sales assistant said.

"Sorry, this dress..." Xu Qingxue was about to say she didn't want it. She was worried Jiang Dapeng might rush to pay for it.

Her concern was indeed necessary; before she could finish her sentence, Jiang Dapeng had already waved at the sales assistant and said, "I'll buy this dress!" Then he turned to Xu Qingxue, "Little Xue, I bought this dress for you, I hope you won't refuse."

Jiang Dapeng said this, his gaze casually flickering towards Wang Xiaoqiang, with a victorious smile on his face.

"Well then, we'll take this dress," Xu Qingxue winked at Wang Xiaoqiang, "Little Qiang, why don't you try on that suit as well!"

"Sure thing!" Wang Xiaoqiang immediately understood and asked the sales assistant to fetch the suit for him to try on.

This turn of events caught Jiang Dapeng off guard. Seeing Wang Xiaoqiang take the suit of matching color and style to the dressing room to change, a muscle in the corner of Jiang Dapeng's eye involuntarily twitched.

They're buying matching outfits, and here I am, foolishly paying for them!

Jiang Dapeng was so upset he nearly spat blood.
