Su Yayan seemed to be very intrigued by the two hats in the corner. As she reached out for the hats, Yu Ziyan and Gu Shaoyang’s faces drastically fell and they could hardly keep themselves from screaming, “Stop right there, Young Madam!”
As if Su Yayan heard the cry in the duo’s hearts, her hands stopped right before she touched the hats, and passively withdrew them.
She turned to face Huo Chenhuan’s pointed stare, blinked, and asked playfully, “Do you like this?”
Huo-accused-green-hat-lover-Chenhuan, “…”
The duo outside the shop nearly went crazy. Which man in their right minds would like “green hats”?
Su Yayan looked at the pitiful face of Huo Chenhuan as he struggled to explain and burst out in laughter. “Even if you truly like it, I would never buy it for you. You can give up now.”
Huo Chenhuan, “…” No, he truly did not like it, not even one bit.
Su Yayan was having a hard time choosing which ones to buy amongst all the hats Huo Chenhuan tried.
At that moment, a voice rang from not far away.
“I don’t want it, it’s so expensive. It’s worth almost six months of my salary. I’ll just get some wool and yarn in a bit to knit myself a warm, sturdy one that doesn’t cost so much.”
Su Yayan’s gaze followed the voice intuitively and saw a young guy and a young girl by the scarf section.
The girl was scrawny and petite, her voice was gentle and careful. She was just like an easily frightened rabbit.
The guy by her side was in a suit, and he acted like one of the successful members of society.
Upon hearing the girl, the guy’s face darkened, especially after he realized that there was someone else around.
“I couldn’t care less if this is just normal times, but I’m bringing you along to visit my former classmates tomorrow. Do you want others to think that I’m abusing you if you turn up wearing sh*t clothes like this? Or do you want my classmates to think that I’m blind for having such an uncouth girlfriend?”
The girl’s face paled with each word he said, her hands gripped the bag tightly, and from where Su Yayan was standing, she could see tears shimmering in her red-rimmed eyes.
Su Yayan scowled. She despised typical alpha males who jeered and yelled at their girlfriends because of their egos. She had no right to intervene in the young couple’s private matters, so she looked away. See no evil.
She could not be bothered with the little not-so-happy episode that unfolded before her, but the guy felt like his ego was deeply wounded since he had an audience.
After yelling at his girlfriend, he shifted his attention towards the couple who was not very far away.
He took a closer look at Huo Chenhuan and Su Yayan’s faces and was stunned. Envy and jealousy began to ooze out of him.
His gaze fell on Huo Chenhuan’s legs and with a turn of an eye seemed to have understood something. He snickered. His eyes were filled with disdain and mockery.
“Alright alright, just buy it because I said so. Stop arguing. It’s not like we’re poor, right? Not like some poor people who should’ve just stayed home instead of coming out and pretending to be rich. Aren’t they unafraid to be a laughing-stock?”
The man saw how Su Yayan tried on so many hats but have yet to decide which one to buy, and thought she was indecisive because she could barely afford it.
In addition to Huo Chenhuan’s legs and their unrecognizable-branded outfit, the man was almost sure that these two were “low-caste people” he could bully.
