CHAPTER 847: CHAPTER 849: CLOTHES YOU LIKE

Shi Miaomiao thought Tang Rong called her over to settle a score, but she didn’t expect it was because she encountered a problem during a date. Wow, women really change so much when they’re in love. Tang Rong used to have a boisterous personality, always with the image of a tomboy, but after falling in love, her feminine side has been magnified infinitely, even looking much softer and gentler than before.

"This is really a tough one. I have no idea where Brother Xiao will take you, so I certainly don’t know what you should wear. Oh right, sister Rong, didn’t you just buy a new outfit two weeks ago? I think that would look great!" Shi Miaomiao said.

With that, the two of them went into Tang Rong’s bedroom and began going through her wardrobe, trying on clothes one by one.

"This outfit really complements your figure nicely, but it feels a bit too formal."

"This one, I think the color doesn’t quite match, and it doesn’t really suit the current season."

Tang Rong changed into five or six outfits but still couldn’t find one suitable for a date.

After going through all of Tang Rong’s clothes, Shi Miaomiao concluded, "Sister Rong, I found that most of your clothes are suitable for formal occasions; the rest are only good for wearing around the house. Don’t you have any cute clothes, the kind that suits a woman in love?"

Shi Miaomiao’s summary was spot on. When buying clothes, she generally prioritized those convenient for work, so most of them were professional outfits. They looked great, of course, but wearing something like that on a date would feel a bit odd. She thought to herself that she’d need to buy a few more outfits soon.

For women, buying clothes never stops. Every time they buy a new jacket, they think of buying a new pair of pants to match with it, and then they need the right shoes and bag to go with it. So, buying clothes really is a difficult and time-consuming task!

But what should she wear tonight? The problem that troubled Tang Rong hadn’t been solved yet.

"Miaomiao, do you have any plans for today? If not, come shopping with me. I need to buy some new clothes."

"Sister Rong, please spare me. You know I don’t have money, so don’t tempt me to spend more. If I spend money now, I won’t have money for next month’s rent." Shi Miaomiao felt quite exhausted, asking herself deep down again and again, why don’t I have money, when will I ever have money?

"Miaomiao, just come with me. I’m in a good mood today. Whatever you like, I’ll buy it for you." Tang Rong tried to persuade Shi Miaomiao to go shopping with her, even using this method to entice her.

"Alright, Sister Rong, you said it, no taking back. Then I’ll pick a few more clothes today." Hearing Tang Rong would buy her new clothes, Shi Miaomiao immediately agreed to Tang Rong’s request.

Shi Miaomiao knew that Tang Rong was wealthy, probably considered a little rich lady. Even if she didn’t work, just the rent of this place could cover her living expenses, and with high quality, no less. Her salary must be quite high too.

As for Xiao Yifei, there’s not much to say. Although he couldn’t afford the rent when he first moved into this place and was kindly taken in by Tang Rong, in just a year, he seems to have joined the middle-class lifestyle already. His salary as a doctor isn’t particularly high, but whatever he earned from doing some programs must be enough to buy a house in this city, Shi Miaomiao thought.

Thinking about it, of the three people in this house, she was the only one who was broke. Her money always ran out before the end of the month. She felt a bit disappointed, thinking the gap between people was too big. Although everyone lived in the same apartment, she was always the one with no money.

Seems like I’ll never become rich on my own, so I might as well try to marry into a wealthy family someday. Shi Miaomiao could only console herself that way.

"Let’s tidy up and leave in half an hour then." With that, Tang Rong sat at her vanity, starting to get ready. Shi Miaomiao also returned to her room, sprucing herself up.

Half an hour later, two glamorous and stunning fairies were ready to head out. The transformation was so significant one couldn’t associate them with the two people from just half an hour ago.

"Hey, sister Rong, the outfit you’re wearing looks really good! I didn’t notice it earlier." Shi Miaomiao was pleasantly surprised seeing Tang Rong and remarked.

"Really? I thought this set was quite ordinary, so I didn’t try it earlier. Is it really that suitable?" Tang Rong asked Shi Miaomiao.

"I think it’s very pretty and suits your temperament well. Should we still hit the streets if you found good-looking clothes to wear?" Shi Miaomiao thought that with a suitable outfit, there was no need to buy more.

"Of course, we should go; otherwise, our meticulous half-hour prepping would be in vain, not to mention I’ve got such exquisite makeup on. My lipstick alone costs a few hundred; I usually can’t bear using it. Let’s go, we are all set. Even if we don’t buy clothes, it’s nice to browse around." Tang Rong insisted on persuading Shi Miaomiao to go shopping.

Eventually, the two headed out anyway.

Unquestionably, shopping leads to buying clothes. Shi Miaomiao fancied a long woolen coat that reached her ankles. After trying it on, it fit her perfectly, but upon seeing the price, she silently put it back down.

Tang Rong came over and said, "This coat looks great on you, making you look slim and tall. From the back, it’s incredibly elegant. If you like it, just get it."

"I’m not fond of the design of the sleeves on this coat, so I’ll pass and look for something else." Shi Miaomiao had no choice but to reluctantly give it up, using her dislike as an excuse to pass on the coat.

But Tang Rong noticed everything from the side. Shi Miaomiao’s eyes lit up from the very first glance at that coat, and she immediately took it to try on, twirling in front of the mirror several times, her face brimming with uncontrollable joy. But after one glance at the tag, she quietly put it back.

Tang Rong didn’t say anything further after hearing what Shi Miaomiao said. They continued browsing other stores, but Tang Rong noticed that Shi Miaomiao didn’t seem interested in any clothes they saw. She certainly knew Shi Miaomiao was still thinking about that coat. Only girls truly understand other girls, that saying couldn’t be more spot-on.

So during their rest and meal, Tang Rong excused herself to the restroom but secretly went back to that store and bought the coat Shi Miaomiao tried earlier. Although it was a bit pricey, it was entirely within her budget.

With a box in hand, Tang Rong returned to the dining place and handed the box to Shi Miaomiao, saying, "Open it and have a look. It’s for you." Upon seeing it was the coat she adored, Shi Miaomiao couldn’t help but exclaim.

"Sister Rong, how could I accept such an expensive gift? You should just return it," Shi Miaomiao said. Despite really liking the coat, she couldn’t simply accept such a gift.

"Miaomiao, don’t refuse. I saw how much you liked it from your expressions earlier. We have been roommates for over a year now. I’m an only child, so I never had an older sister or younger sister. I always wished to have a little sister since I was young."
