Chapter 973: Couple's Outfits Need a New Set Every Day

With a destination in mind, Li Xiao soon drove the car directly to the entrance of the largest shopping mall in the city.

The two of them didn't say a word and headed straight for the clothing section upstairs.

After checking a few random shops, they truly found one that specialized in selling couple's apparel.

As soon as Cai Xiaotang entered the door, she immediately heard the sales clerk enthusiastically say, "Are the two of you here to buy clothes? At a glance, you two are a talented man and a beautiful woman, a perfect match; surely everything will look good on you!"

As the other party spoke, she very enthusiastically took down a set of clothes hanging up and began to introduce them, "This is the hottest style in our shop recently, you two can..."

"No need, we'll look ourselves."

Cai Xiaotang couldn't quite handle such enthusiasm, so she hurriedly refused, wanting to pick things out herself.

The sales clerk had no choice but to stop introducing and retreated to the side, leaving space for the two of them.

Only then did Cai Xiaotang hurriedly start looking carefully.

Immediately after, she heard Li Xiao say with a smile, "The clothes here really aren't bad-looking. If you like them, you can buy a few more sets..."

"Why buy so many? Anyway..."

Cai Xiaotang retorted subconsciously, but stopped abruptly halfway through her sentence.

Anyway, they would only wear them this once.

She silently swallowed those words back and deliberately adjusted the atmosphere, saying:

"Haven't you noticed that the style here is completely different from what you usually wear? Are you sure you can pull it off?"

She looked at Li Xiao with deliberate provocation.

The style of this shop looked very youthful at first glance.

Basically, all the clothes were athletic styles or denim and casual wear.

The T-shirts were also printed with exaggerated patterns or currently very trendy decorations.

It was completely different from the dark-colored or flamboyant shirts Li Xiao usually liked to wear.

"Why couldn't I wear them?"

Li Xiao raised an eyebrow, casually picked up a T-shirt with a very cool dog wearing sunglasses drawn on it, and held it up against his body to measure.

"Pfft..."

The overly strong contrast made Cai Xiaotang unable to help but laugh out loud again.

"No way... hurry up and put it back, it's too strange!"

It was the first time Cai Xiaotang had seen him wear such a bizarre combination; she was practically holding back laughter until she suffered internal injuries, yet she didn't forget to tease him, "Uncle Li, your social aura can no longer blend in with the way we young people dress..."

"What did you call me?"

Hearing her form of address, Li Xiao narrowed his eyes threateningly.

"Nothing!"

Upon hearing this, Cai Xiaotang immediately knew when to stop, hurriedly took the clothes from his hands to hang them up, and volunteered, "Let me pick them out instead, I guarantee I'll arrange you perfectly! I'll make you look ten years younger!"

Li Xiao: "..."

He was only in his early thirties, alright!

Li Xiao really wanted to defend himself.

But Cai Xiaotang had already turned and walked toward the deeper part of the shop, so he had no choice but to hurriedly follow.

After walking around a few more times, Cai Xiaotang finally picked up a white T-shirt with simple decorations and a pair of khaki shorts.

"Something simple like this is fine; that flashy stuff isn't suitable for you..."

"And you?"

Li Xiao had no doubts about Cai Xiaotang's taste and took them from her.

Immediately after, he saw her pick up an identical T-shirt in a smaller size and a pair of overalls in the same color scheme.

"I'll just wear this; doesn't that match?"

As soon as she finished speaking, the sales clerk from before suddenly popped out from somewhere, smiling.

"That's just perfect. The clothes in our shop can be mixed and matched freely. For couple's outfits, they don't necessarily have to be exactly the same; as long as they are in the same color scheme, the two of you will look great standing together! Plus, you two are so good-looking! Why don't you go try them on first and see the effect!"

"Mm."

Cai Xiaotang nodded, didn't decline again, and went to the fitting room with Li Xiao.

Cai Xiaotang quickly changed into the clothes, glanced at herself in the mirror, and nodded with satisfaction.

The clothes on her were about the same as she had imagined.

And because it was an overall skirt, it looked very age-reducing; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say she had just graduated from college.

I wonder...

How is the effect on Li Xiao's side?

Thinking this, Cai Xiaotang hurriedly straightened her clothes again and walked out.

Then, as soon as she stepped out, she saw that someone had already changed and was standing in front of the mirror outside.

Cai Xiaotang took a quick glance, and a flash of amazement couldn't help but cross her eyes.

This outfit on that person...

Does he look like he's become younger?

Although he wasn't that old to begin with...

It's just that his aura... seems... to have become a bit softer?

Anyway, he's still very handsome!

But it's a completely different kind of handsome than before!

Tsk... as expected, if your face is good-looking, everything you wear looks good!

Cai Xiaotang was muttering to herself in her heart when she saw Li Xiao turn around.

"Staring at me in a daze?"

He had long since seen Cai Xiaotang come out through the mirror.

He had originally intended to wait for her to speak first, but he hadn't expected her to keep staring at him as if lost in thought, so he couldn't help but tease her.

Upon hearing this, Cai Xiaotang instantly snapped back to reality.

A suspicious flush also crept up her ears.

Yet, as stubborn as ever, she retorted, "Who was staring in a daze? I was just thinking that someone finally looks a little younger..."

As she spoke, Cai Xiaotang hurriedly changed the subject, saying, "Let's go with this set! Let's go pay!"

She said this while hurriedly walking toward the direction of the counter.

Li Xiao did not follow, but instead took another turn around the store by himself, and soon had several more sets in his hands.

"Why are you buying so many?"

Watching him hand the large pile of clothes and dresses to the sales clerk, Cai Xiaotang was instantly filled with disbelief.

The next second—"One set for every day."

Li Xiao said, handing over his bank card, and continued unhurriedly, "I never said these were only for today."

Cai Xiaotang: "..."

So, could it be that he wants to wear matching outfits every day until they part ways?

Just as Cai Xiaotang was thinking this, she heard the surrounding sales clerks suddenly praise, "The two of you have such a wonderful relationship, it's simply enviable!"

"Indeed! This gentleman is so handsome, and so generous with his spending!"

Several older women began to chime in with their praises.

Li Xiao listened with a smile, and with a very punchable expression, shot a smug look at Cai Xiaotang.

Cai Xiaotang was speechless and had no choice but to obediently shut her mouth, not saying another word.

Her mood was just a bit complicated, both sour and astringent.

One set a day...

To think this guy could come up with that!

Why does it feel like the two of them are using up every chance they'll ever have in this lifetime to wear matching outfits?

But...

In truth, she shouldn't keep anything else related to him.

Whether it's the keychain prize from earlier, or this piece of clothing.

How is she supposed to forget him this way?

However...

They only have this much time left together.

To only wear them once would indeed be a bit of a pity.

Forget it.

Let him be happy.
