In fact, Jiang Ning has already made it very clear.
But Xia Ying wasn't really listening.
Girls in love are like that—extremely emotional and easily misled by their partners.
She was far less rational than the man.
Men always weigh the pros and cons when choosing a marriage partner.
“Ningning, did you misunderstand my boyfriend like Xiao Si did?” Xia Ying sighed. “Actually, my boyfriend is a really good person. I know that the arranged marriage did offend you a bit, but it was just a joke by my boyfriend. He just wanted to urge me to get married. He wants me to marry him as soon as possible and have children with him.”
"He just loves me too much."
Concern leads to confusion.
When people are in a hurry, they don't consider the consequences.
Perhaps even Xu Tao himself didn't expect that a casual remark he made would provoke the displeasure of Jiang Ning and Ma Zhaodi.
Xia Ying now feels wronged on Xu Tao's behalf.
"Push him to get married? Xia Ying, you're being too idealistic. You say his goal is to pressure you into marriage, but has he ever proposed to you? You say he loves you, but has he ever done anything for you?"
At this point, Jiang Ning paused, then continued, "Xia Ying, I have a question for you now: what is the most expensive gift he has ever bought for you when you were together?"
Xia Ying was taken aback for a moment, then said, "Although he's never given me anything too expensive, he did give me a scarf he knitted himself for my birthday." Xia Ying emphasized the phrase "knitted himself."
scarf?
In the adult world, love is equivalent to material possessions.
Men love to label women with value tags.
They would give gifts to women according to their status in their hearts.
It's one thing if 18- or 19-year-olds don't have spending power.
Judging from Xu Tao's clothes and car keys, he is clearly a middle-class person.
Such a person.
When he was dating his girlfriend, the birthday gift he gave her was a scarf.
This is enough to show how much Xia Ying means to Xu Tao.
Hearing this, Ma Zhaodi burst out laughing. "Xia Ying, are you kidding me! We're not seventeen or eighteen-year-old high school students anymore, we're adults, and financially independent adults at that! If he really loved you that much, how could he possibly give you a tattered scarf on such an important day as your birthday? Isn't that just trying to fool a child? I remember when I was in high school, only the boys in my class would use such methods to please girls!"
Jiang Ning nodded slightly, "That's right, what Xiao Si said is exactly what I wanted to express."
If a man only has fifty dollars but is willing to spend twenty dollars on you, then he truly loves you.
But if a man has a million dollars but is only willing to spend twenty dollars, then he's just playing around.
But...
The one who was being played actually developed feelings for him.
“That’s not a tattered scarf,” Xia Ying tried to explain for Xu Tao. “Xu Tao knitted it by hand. I don’t care about the money at all. What I care about is sincerity. Don’t you two think it’s a very romantic thing for a grown man to knit a scarf by hand for his girlfriend as a gift?”
How many men are still willing to do this kind of thing nowadays?
Not at all!
But Xu Tao did it.
then.
No one knew how touched Xia Ying was after receiving the scarf.
Ma Zhaodi interrupted Xia Ying directly, "Xia Ying, stop being so self-satisfied. It's not even certain whether he knitted this scarf by hand! I bet he bought it on Pinduoduo for 9.9 yuan with free shipping! If he had knitted it by hand, he would definitely have recorded a video for you. Did he record a video for you?"
"Record a video?" Xia Ying looked at Ma Zhaodi. "Who records a video while knitting a scarf? Xiao Si, don't be so hostile towards Xu Tao!"
