Chapter 192
Qin Tian followed Xia Nuannuan's gaze, and his eyes landed on a blue dress in the store.
It was exactly the "Blue Battle Suit" he had designed using Xia Nuannuan as a model.
Qin Tian glanced at Xia Nuannuan beside him, then looked at the blue dress displayed on the mannequin, his eyes lighting up slightly as a good idea formed in his mind.
"Do you want that dress?"
He asked with a smile on his face.
Xia Nuannuan tilted her head to look at him, first shook her head, then nodded somewhat embarrassedly, and asked in a low voice: "How about I be the second customer and buy one of these too?"
She really wanted one of these dresses, and even wanted to buy two identical ones—one to wear and one to keep as a collection.
After all, this blue dress was the first piece of clothing Qin Tian had designed, and it was drawn with her as the model, so it had great significance for her to keep.
However, she knew that if she asked, Qin Tian's mother would definitely just give it to her.
"No need to buy it, I have an idea."
A mysterious smile appeared on Qin Tian's handsome face.
"That won't do, I have to pay for it!"
Xia Nuannuan looked at him with a serious expression, clearly having misunderstood.
Qin Tian smiled, covered his mouth with his hand, leaned into her ear, and whispered something.
Xia Nuannuan's pretty face turned red at a speed visible to the naked eye. After hearing it, she shook her head like a rattle in embarrassment.
"No, I, I would be too embarrassed!"
"You can do it, help me out!"
Qin Tian encouraged her with a smile.
"Xiao Tian, what are you two whispering about?"
Tang Xiuxia, who had just finished helping fold the clothes Su Xia bought and putting them into a shopping bag, asked curiously in a loud voice.
Su Xia, standing nearby, was also looking at the two children with a full smile.
Xia Nuannuan lowered her little head, her face flushed with embarrassment.
Qin Tian looked at the two mothers, pointed to the blue dress, and explained: "Mom, Nuan Nuan wanted to buy that dress, but I said there's no need to buy it. Let her wear that dress today to help attract customers to the store, and the dress can be her reward."
Both mothers were stunned upon hearing this and looked at Xia Nuannuan with astonished eyes.
"Actually, this dress is the first one I designed. Later, the design was sold to that President Wang. This dress is selling quite well in Jiangcheng now. When I designed this dress, I used Nuan Nuan as the model, and the original design draft is still in her hands!"
Qin Tian continued with a light laugh.
When they went to Jiangcheng to see Wang Lingyue before, Xia Nuannuan found out that the original design draft for this blue dress was in his hands, so she asked for it to keep as a collection when they returned to Yucheng.
After hearing this, the two mothers looked at each other in astonishment, clearly not expecting that this blue dress, placed in the most prominent position in the store, had such a story behind it.
Xia Nuannuan's head was almost buried in her chest, and the roots of her ears were bright red.
"Nuan Nuan, Xiao Qin's idea is good. Since you like this dress, just help out. It's more meaningful than just buying it, isn't it?"
Su Xia chimed in with a gentle smile.
Tang Xiuxia, standing to the side, didn't say anything, but her gaze toward Xia Nuannuan was full of anticipation.
She really wanted to see how beautiful her future daughter-in-law would look wearing this dress designed by her son.
"Mom, don't stir up trouble, it's so embarrassing!"
Xia Nuannuan looked at her mother with a shy gaze.
Su Xia couldn't help but roll her eyes and said: "What's there to be embarrassed about? My daughter is so beautiful; she'll definitely look more eye-catching than that fake mannequin. When customers come in and see, 'Oh, this dress is really pretty, Boss, give me one to try,' won't the store's business pick up?"
"Auntie's words make a lot of sense!"
Qin Tian nodded in agreement, deeply convinced.
Tang Xiuxia covered her mouth to hide her amusement, looking at Xia Nuannuan with a smile in her eyes.
"Nuan Nuan, let's work together to make Nuannuan Cabin a hit on its first day. Tonight, my mom will treat us to a meal to celebrate properly!"
Qin Tian continued to urge her with a hearty smile.
"No problem!"
Tang Xiuxia agreed loudly.
Xia Nuannuan was moved by what they said and glared at Qin Tian with a pouty expression.
With them saying that, how could she refuse anymore!
She knew she couldn't refuse, but Qin Tian's "master planner" expression made her feel that she couldn't just compromise so easily.
Suddenly, she remembered a very popular video she had seen online a couple of days ago.
It was a website called Bilibili, where people would post videos they had filmed themselves.
In the video she saw, a cute "girl" was teaching everyone how to apply makeup.
Just as she was watching the video and seriously learning how to apply makeup, the "girl" in the video suddenly spoke, scaring her so much that the eyebrow pencil in her hand fell.
That's right, it was actually a boy!
At this very moment, with a flash of inspiration in her mind, a cunning smile like a little fox appeared on her exquisite pretty face.
For some reason, seeing this smile, Qin Tian suddenly had an ominous premonition.
"Auntie, I'm very willing to help!"
Xia Nuannuan looked at Tang Xiuxia with a sweet smile and said.
Tang Xiuxia was startled, somewhat surprised that she had changed her mind so quickly.
Before she could speak, Xia Nuannuan suddenly feigned a pitiful expression and changed the subject: "However, Auntie, if I wear it alone, I'll be very embarrassed."
"Then what do you want?"
Tang Xiuxia looked at her with a puzzled gaze, thinking she wanted to find a friend to come over and join her.
Qin Tian, however, had already sensed something, and his face turned pale.
Sure enough, Xia Nuannuan reached out her right index finger and pointed directly at him.
"Let Qin Tian wear it with me!"
"Huh??"
Tang Xiuxia and Su Xia were both dumbfounded for a moment.
Qin Tian was also stunned, his whole person left stupid.
"Auntie, I've seen videos online of boys wearing women's clothing, and many people liked them. I think Qin Tian could try it too; it would definitely be very eye-catching."
Xia Nuannuan explained with a serious expression.
Tang Xiuxia and Su Xia looked at each other in astonishment, then simultaneously turned to look at Qin Tian and began to size him up.
Qin Tian's face was pale, his mouth twitched wildly, and he forced a smile that was uglier than crying.
"Nuan Nuan, stop joking."
"I'm not joking, I'm serious!"
Xia Nuannuan blinked her bright, sparkling eyes and smiled broadly.
"With my height, are you sure I can wear women's clothing?"
"It's fine, we'll just find the largest size, it'll work!"
"Nuan Nuan, you've changed!"
"Qin Tian, what are you talking about? Just sacrifice a little for the store's successful opening!"
Xia Nuannuan said with a mischievous smile.
Black lines hung down from Qin Tian's forehead, and he looked at his mother for help.
Tang Xiuxia stared at him with a strange expression for a long time, then tentatively said: "Xiao Tian, how about... you listen to Nuan Nuan and give it a try?"
"You really are my own mother!"
Qin Tian was crying without tears, his guts turning green with regret.
Finally, he cast a hopeful gaze toward his future mother-in-law.
Su Xia turned her head to look at a black skirt on the wall and said: "I think this black skirt might be worth a try!"
