Imagine visiting a furniture store to test out some mattresses, only to find yourself dozing off into a deep slumber.
That’s exactly what happened to one man in China, who unintentionally became a viral sensation after falling asleep in a furniture store.
This amusing incident captured the attention of netizens and left everyone wondering about the comfort of the mattress that prompted such sound sleep.
An Unexpected Nap in the Furniture Store
According to Chinese media outlet Jiupai News, the incident took place in Lishui, Zhejiang. The man entered a local furniture store with the intention of testing out mattresses before making a purchase decision.
Little did he know that his visit would take an unexpected turn. As he laid down on one of the mattresses, he gradually drifted off into a deep sleep.
The man’s peaceful slumber in the furniture store was not just witnessed by the store owner but also captured on video. The footage showcases the customer sleeping soundly, oblivious to the surroundings.
In fact, the store owner even mentioned that she could hear him snoring. The video, shared by Jiupai News on Weibo, quickly gained immense popularity, accumulating close to five million views.
Rather than waking the man up or interrupting his sleep, the compassionate store owner decided to let him continue napping.
She instructed her employees to switch off the lights and carefully cover him with a cozy blanket. It was a considerate gesture that not only preserved his sleep but also gained the admiration of onlookers.
After a restful slumber, the man finally woke up and discovered that he had unintentionally become the center of attention.
In an unexpected turn of events, he made a decision that surprised everyone. Impressed by the comfort he experienced on the mattress, he decided to purchase it without any hesitation.
The receipt shown in the video revealed that the man spent a staggering amount of 19,000 yuan (SGD$3,555) on the mattress alone.
In addition, he made an additional purchase worth 4,500 yuan (SGD$842), bringing his total expenditure at the store to an impressive 23,500 yuan (SGD$4397).
As the video circulated on social media platforms, it garnered significant attention and engagement from netizens.
Many users found humor in the situation and expressed their amusement through comments. One user on Weibo remarked, “[If you can] lie down and fall asleep immediately, it’s a good bed.”
Another comment praised the store owner’s approach, stating, “That’s very good, the owner didn’t wake him up, and didn’t even stop him from testing. The mattress deserved to be sold.”
