I got Possessed by the Tentacle God

After providing the saleswoman his contact details, rather than leaving the store they continued shopping around for more casual clothing. After picking out a few sets of casual clothing, Tie Zhu and Tao Keke eventually made their way to the women's section of the store to buy clothes for Tao Keke.

Because the store was large there was a whole separate section for women's clothing. After wandering around this section for a while something had suddenly caught the attention of Tao Keke's eyes. It was a piece of clothing that stood out from the rest. A red formal gown that was made of the finest silk material and embroidery in a rose pattern along the lower hem.

As soon as they walked past it Tie Zhu immediately noticed that Tao Keke gaze shifted on the dress however she quickly shifted her gaze in another direction. He knew that she did not want Tie Zhu to buy the dress because it was likely to be too expensive. Although he was not very familiar with fashion, in his mind that dress could not compare with some of the dresses within his spatial stone. However, despite this, he could not deny that there was a certain charm about the dress.

Seeing as he had rarely been able to spoil Tao Keke over the time he had known her he made a decision to buy the dress. He had contemplated giving her a dress from the spatial stone at first, however from what he had learnt from Bing Meifeng, it would probably cause her more harm than good.

"How much for that dress?" Tie Zhu suddenly asked the saleswoman, pointing to the red dress that Tao Keke had been eyeing earlier.

As if catching her by surprise, the saleswoman body slightly jolted up in excitement as it was the shops most special dress hand crafted by one of the world's most famous dressmakers.

"That dress? That dress was made by the world famous dress maker named...(long explanation of history of dress etc) ... Its price is 1,000,000 RMB" She explained excitedly while giving a fully detailed explanation of the dress. She had already received a lot of commission from the suit that Tie Zhu had ordered earlier and the casual sets of clothing he had bought. If he had bought this dress as well she would not have to even work for a whole month.

"What! One million?!" As soon as Tao Keke heard that figure she could not help but call out in shock. She had even felt a sense of guilt at even having looked at that dress because she felt as if she had made Tie Zhu lose face, however what surprised her was that Tie Zhu did not seem shocked at first, which made her worry even more.

In fact, when he had heard the figure of one million RMB, it was still enough to startle him slightly, however he managed to keep a straight face as he had already assumed that the price would definitely cost more than the suit he had just ordered.

"Okay, I'll take it." Tie Zhu said, however he had barely had the time to close his mouth before Tao Keke swatted at his arm in an attempt to stop him.

"No don't, it too expensive. There are better ways for you to use that money." She tiptoed as she whispered in his ear nervously.

"You don't have to worry about it. I saw the look in your eyes earlier and I've never been able to treat you like how I've wanted to before. Right now your happiness is all that matters to me, I know you might be wondering how I got this money in the first place, but trust me, I'll tell you all about it later. " Tie Zhu whispered back, prompting a blush on her face.

"...B.. But it's still too much. What if it doesn't fit or suit me. " She said quietly, trying to find an excuse, as the sheer price still made her somewhat uncomfortable.

"Hey, don't worry about it. If you don't like it I can just give it to Bing Meif....Ah" He said before stopping himself as a vice like pinch had suddenly caught his waist.

"Hmph... Fine, don't say any more... Pervert" she said quietly as she looked down in shame. She did not know why, but as soon as Tie Zhu mentioned Bing Meifeng's name she felt a sudden sense of crisis. 'What am I thinking?' she thought to herself as she shook her head as if trying to dispel her thoughts.

Seeing that Tao Keke had finally agreed, although somewhat reluctant, Tie Zhu once again confirmed his intention to purchase the dress to the saleswoman delight. As a final procedure, the saleswoman also took the measurements of Tao Keke to determine if any altercations to the dress had to be made.

"Judging my the measurements, the dress should fit her finely, however some small adjustments may be necessary. If possible, I think we should have her try the dress on now." The saleswoman said as she cast her eyes towards Tao Keke somewhat adoringly, yet enviously.

As the gazes of Tie Zhu and the saleswoman were cast on her, Tao Keke nodded nervously as she made her way to the changing room.

"....." As soon as Tao Keke walked out of the changing room not only was Tie Zhu stunned, but even the saleswoman and other passers-by were equally stunned. It was as if the bright red silk gave Tao Keke a bewitching charm of some sort that even Tie Zhu could not defend against.

"Ahh, honey!! Look at that dress! I want it!"

Just as Tie Zhu was captured by Tao Keke charm a sudden high pitched scream ruined his mood, causing him to turn his head to the source of that sound. What he saw was a chubby looking man, walking in with a girl that may could be mistaken for a beauty, however her face was layered thick with makeup.

"Dahai, baby can you please buy me that dress, I'll make it up to you later!" the girl said seductively as she swung around his fat arm, oblivious to his wretched eyes that had been glued to Tao Keke.

"Huh, what did you say?" He said as he wiped some drool off his mouth snapping out of his brief trance.
