The trend of “the first “milk tea of autumn” has caught the attention of many enthusiasts of this beverage across various Asian countries. The craze originated in China when young people rushed to buy milk tea on the day of the autumn equinox and shared it on social media. It is believed that those who buy milk tea for their loved ones on this day will enjoy a sweet love throughout the autumn season. The hashtag “First Milk Tea of Autumn” has also become a trending keyword. This trend has spread to neighboring countries, where there is a considerable community of milk tea lovers.
Wanting to win over his crush, a guy joined this trend but with an upgraded version. Specifically, he placed a second order, leaving a sweet message that said: “People only have their first milk tea, but my sweetheart deserves a second one.” He was full of pride, believing that with this “exclusive” message, his plan to impress his crush would succeed, and his feelings would be reciprocated.
However, things didn’t go as he dreamed. The delivery person revealed a harsh truth. Specifically, the delivery person, upon arriving at the girl’s house, took a picture of her door with many milk tea orders already placed beforehand. Posting the story on social media, the delivery person added a teasing caption: “Did you know your sweetheart received 8 cups this morning?”.
The delivery person’s revelation was like a cold shower for the guy. It turns out that the autumn milk tea was not his “secret weapon” alone. Thinking he was special, he found out he was just one of many guys who had “reserved” to impress their crushes.
This story is not a rare case. Below the post, many girls also shared similar images, competing to showcase their “overindulgence” in milk tea. Perhaps, these lovesick guys forget that what makes a gift special lies not in the item itself, but in the sincerity and expression of each person. A simple gift that comes from the heart can be worth much more than mass-produced and repetitive gifts.
Gamers, have you ever found yourself in a “laughing and crying” situation like this guy?
