Chapter 173
When a man and a woman went out on a date, the man would do whatever the girl said.
So what if she wanted to eat ice cream?
Couldn't he just say yes? Was this still a date?
"Hmph, I don't want to date him anymore!" Sharon huffed angrily inside her.
She sat down on the chair and refused to move. She was annoyed.
Stanley looked at her skeptically and asked, "Why are you sitting here? Let's go."
"If you want to go, you go! I don't want to go!"
"Sharon Cruz!" Stanley was obviously puzzled by the woman who excitedly said that she wanted to grab a bite a minute ago but was now annoyed.
Sharon glared at him and said, "Don't shout at me. I won't leave!"
Stanley massaged his eyebrows, speechless. "I didn't shout at you..."
Sharon insisted, "No matter what, I won't leave." "Then can you at least tell me a reason why don't you want to leave?"
It would be easier to solve the problem if he knew the reason. He faintly felt that she seemed to be angry, but he didn't know why was she angry.
Sharon casually blurted an excuse, "I don't want to walk. My feet hurt."
Stanley was even more confused. "Didn't I just buy you flat shoes? Are you still in pain?"
Sharon rolled her eyes in agitation, apparently pissing off.
Why was he so stupid?
Why was it so hard for him to see why she didn't want to leave?
She wanted to eat ice cream!
She pursed her lips and turned her face away, ignoring him.
She just wanted to see if the super intelligent president could figure out why she was angry.
There was a young couple next to her now. As if deliberately trying to piss her off further, the boy was very considerate and doted on his girlfriend at all times, while the girl was gentle and sweet... Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
The girl said, "Honey, I want the strawberry-flavored."
The boy said, "Okay, whatever you want, my darling. If one is not enough, let's have two scoops."
The girl gave him a kiss and said, "Honey, you're the best!"
The boy responded affectionately, "I am willing to be your best for the rest of my life."
The girl's heart melted. Her gazes were filled with passion and sweetness as she laid her eyes on her boyfriend.
Sharon found the scene irritable though.
It would be easier to kill Stanley than to get him to say such lovey-dovey things.
After a few people's comparisons, the real couple immediately showed its original appearance.
Sharon thought enviously, "That is what a real date is like! The tacit understanding, the atmosphere, and the sweetness!"
On the other hand, they had nothing.
All they had was a dimwitted idiot!
The owner of the dessert shop finally couldn't stand it anymore. He sighed and said, "Lad."
Stanley glanced at him and asked, "Me?"
"Yes, you." The boss pointed to the angry Sharon sitting on the chair. "Is she your niece or what?"
Stanley sneered, "Am I that old?"
"Oh?" The owner was stunned. "That means..."
"That means she is my wife!"
The owner apologized immediately, "I'm sorry, I'm so sorry. My bad. I see that the girl is quite young- looking and even a little childish. I didn't expect that you... have been married."
Stanley agreed that Sharon did look young, but he didn't look that old either!
What the hell!
He made the right decision by not buying ice cream from this stall!
Of course, the owner of the dessert shop didn't know what Stanley was thinking. If he knew, he certainly wouldn't help him solve the crisis.
"That little girl... Oh, I mean, your wife is angry with you. You should go over and comfort her."
Stanley frowned and nodded. "I know she's angry."
"Then why are you still standing here?"
"I'm just wondering why is she angry. It would be a lot faster to find out why and then work on the problem."
Otherwise, he would be like a headless chicken.
The owner of the dessert shop was utterly shocked. He had been selling dessert for 20 years and this was the first time he had seen such a dull man.
"Your wife is angry because you don't buy her ice cream. That's the only explanation."
There was no need to even think about it.
Stanley frowned. "Is that so?"
"Of course!"
Stanley was speechless.
He had said that it was too cold to eat in this weather. Was it necessary for her to be angry?
What should she do if she had to go to the hospital because of an upset stomach? What about when she caught a cold? It was for her own good, yet she was agitated because he cared for her!
It was simply... unreasonable.
"I don't buy it for her is for her own good. She's a smart girl. She shouldn't be mad about this," Stanley said after thinking for a while.
The dessert shop owner rolled his eyes and said, "Young man, women are sweet-toothed animals. When they go out on a date with a man, they are happy. When they are happy, they will crave this kind of thing. Moreover, ice cream represents sweet love. Look around you. Nine out of ten couples have ice cream in their hands."
Looking around, Stanley found that what the owner said was true.
Several beautifully dressed young girls were eating ice cream while holding their boyfriends' arms.
Stanley looked at the angry Sharon lying her head on the table. Was she really angry because he didn't buy her ice cream?
He didn't believe it at first but started to believe it after listening to the owner's explanation.
The owner of the dessert shop took the opportunity to promote his ice cream, "What do you think, young man? Why don't you buy your wife one?"
Stanley went straight to Sharon and ignored the owner's words.
The owner squinted at Stanley's back, annoyed.
He cursed under his breath, "Argh, such a waste of my time and effort."
Sharon saw the man walking towards her from the corner of her eye. She turned her face and faced her back at him.
Stanley pulled out a chair and sat down. Looking at the woman who was angry, he said, "Are you really angry with me because I didn't buy you ice cream?"
Actually, Sharon was not angry with him because of the ice cream, not to that extent.
She was angry because of the meaning behind the ice cream. Since he said it was a date, then they should date like other couples. He should listen to her, comply with her every need, and spoil her in every way. Instead, he disapproved of this and didn't allow her to do that...
Stanley coaxed her patiently, "If you don't tell me the reason, I'll never know why you are upset."
Only then did Sharon take action. She pointed to the couple next to her and asked, "Are we on a date now?"
"Yes."
"Then why can't you be as intimate as that boyfriend to me?"
Stanley raised his eyebrows and looked over. The couple seemed to be about the same age as Sharon. At this moment, the two of them were feeding each other ice cream with their arms intertwined together.
"Do you want me to hug you here?"
"Of course not!" Sharon was so angry that she almost slammed the table. Why couldn't he come to his senses? "I mean, you should be... nicer to me."
Stanley raised his eyebrows. "Such as?"
Sharon blushed and didn't say anything.
The young couple on the side opened their mouths at the right time. The man held the girl and said, "Baby, do you still want to eat? I'll buy it for you."
The girl's face was full of happiness. "I love you. You're so sweet. I love you so much..."
"Baby, I love you too..."
Stanley seemed to have realized what she meant. He said with a look as if he was choked, "Do you want me to do this to you?"
