It seems like I’ll have to let my wife get involved in this kind of thing more often in the future.

After her relatives leave, Yigol will have to work even harder to quickly reach the crucial moments in their life.

The movie ended quickly, and they left the cinema. Suri didn’t insist on going home, and when Yigol took her hand, she didn’t refuse.

They were strolling along a big road.

“Brother, your girlfriend is so beautiful! Why don’t you buy her some flowers?” A little girl holding many roses approached them and spoke to Yigol.

The flowers were beautiful and well-packaged, making them quite expensive.

Yigol was a pragmatist who usually wouldn’t think about buying such things. But now, faced with this situation and the girl’s words, not buying any would be too heartless on Suri.

“How much are your flowers?” Yigol asked.

“Ten dollars each, it symbolizes perfection. If you have the heart, you can buy nine to signify sticking together forever.”

Yigol felt helpless, this girl was too persuasive. With such words, how could he refuse?

Now, their relationship was at a crucial stage, so Yigol’s job was to unconditionally make Suri happy.

Yigol didn’t lack money, but spending it on flowers was extremely impractical. Before he could even say he would buy, the girl had blocked any option not to.

These flower sellers knew how to exploit couples’ feelings, knowing it would be hard for the man to refuse in such situations.

If the man wasn’t tactful, it would definitely upset the woman. Even if she didn’t say anything, she’d remember it quietly.

If the woman was less subtle, she might even break up on the spot.

“Honey, don’t buy them, it’s a waste of money.” Suri refused before Yigol could decide.

No girl would dislike flowers, but Suri also didn’t like being wasteful. These items had no use beyond looking nice at the time.

Due to her family situation, Suri had been self-sufficient since high school, taking one step at a time to get to where she was today.

She and Yigol had the same mindset; there was no use in buying useless things.

“Sorry, we don’t need any,” Yigol replied.

The little girl continued to persist: “Brother, your girlfriend is so beautiful, are you really not going to buy her any flowers? She says she doesn’t want any because she’s modest, but if you don’t buy any, she might be unhappy.”

The little girl voiced what many others might think.

But Suri wasn’t like that.

“Even if you buy nine flowers, it’ll only cost ninety dollars. It’s not much, and can buy happiness for your girlfriend. So it’s worth it, brother, please buy some, huh?”

These words left Yigol and Suri impressed by how persuasive the little girl was.

If she was dealing with an ordinary couple, once things reached this point, the man would feel forced to buy. Refusing would mean seriously offending the girl.

Getting into a bad situation over some flowers was a lousy deal.

But this girl had bad luck today; she met Yigol and Suri, who were refreshingly honest people.

Their relationship couldn’t be divided so easily.

Actually, the little girl was the daughter of a nearby flower shop owner. The boss’s wife had noticed Yigol and Suri earlier.

The girl was so beautiful that the boss’s wife had her own daughter try to sell them flowers. She taught her daughter what to say, all in the hopes of selling more flowers; after all, who would think too much money was a bad thing?

Seeing how close Yigol and Suri were, the boss’s wife thought about her eldest son.

Her family was relatively well-off, and her son had never lacked anything growing up.

However, recently her son brought home a girlfriend she didn’t approve of, so she made them break up.

Seeing the closeness between Yigol and Suri, she couldn’t help but feel they were mismatched. That’s why she had her daughter use such words, thinking Yigol would buy flowers for the sake of face.

If he didn’t buy, she wouldn’t mind stirring up their relationship.

But unexpectedly, after her daughter said so much, the man still had no intention of buying. The boss’s wife, watching from a distance, felt extremely anxious.

Annoyed by the little girl’s persistent sales pitch, Yigol and Suri went around her and left.

They didn’t feel any pity for the girl in this situation. They knew the grown-ups were nearby during this time, so they left without any guilt.

After they’d walked quite a distance, Yigol looked at Suri and said, “Wife, the girl selling flowers earlier made me uncomfortable, but she reminded me that I’ve never bought you flowers before. Do you have any favorite flowers you’d like? Tell me.”

Suri shook her head: “I don’t have any favorite flowers.”

Yigol held her hand and said, “That’s impossible. No girl dislikes flowers, just like every man loves cars. I used to think I didn’t like cars, but after buying one the other day, I felt like acquiring all the luxury cars and driving a different one each day.”

“Wife, don’t be shy with me. Tell me what kind of flowers you like.”

Suri countered, “You love cars so much, why don’t you buy them? You’re not short on money, so buying the cars you like wouldn’t be a problem.” Caught off guard, Yigol didn’t know how to respond, “I…”

“I may not be short on money, and I really do love cars, but owning too many is impractical. I can’t possibly use a different one every day; that would be too luxurious. I’m still using common sense. Even if I bought them, not only would they be impractical, but I would have to spend money and time on maintenance, which would be a huge burden. I’m not willing to do that.”

Suri replied, “But it is practical. How can it not be? All you need to do is drive outside, park on the side of the road, and soon enough, little girls will come flirting with you. As for the other issues, as long as you have money, you can resolve them.”

“Besides, once you buy cars, you can experience life’s pleasures. You can switch girls every day, and the thrill will always be there…”

Yigol quickly surrendered, “Wife, can you stop? I admit I was wrong, alright?”

“However, wife, have you noticed that your courage has grown a lot lately? You can talk about these things without blushing or flinching. You seem experienced.. Tell me the truth, are you putting on an act in front of me? Beneath your cool exterior, is there a passionate soul?”
