A virtual princess? She's a real princess!

"Hello, who is it?" I'm so sleepy, sob sob.

"Xiaoxiao, get up!" Lin Zhiqing called Bian Xiao at nine o'clock in the morning. She hadn't seen him all summer and missed him terribly.

Lin Zhiqing had just woken up and finished washing up. She turned on speakerphone and went to find clothes to wear in her dressing room, urging Bian Xiao, "Are you up yet!"

"Get up, get up, my dear lady, don't rush me. I just got back to the country, ah~" Bian Xiao yawned, picked up his phone and went to brush his teeth and wash his face, listening to Lin Zhiqing chattering away.

“Zhouzhou has booked the place. I’ll ask him for the address later. But you’re really being unreasonable. You’re going back to China after high school. Most people go abroad after high school.”

Bian Xiao brushed his teeth, saying, "I'm still not used to school in the US." Then he washed his face.

Her fair and tender face was rosy and supple as she diligently applied her own special skincare products.

Lin Zhiqing was also used to life in mainland China, so she moved to Shanghai with her parents to study in primary school.

She had planned to go abroad to study with Bian Xiao after high school, but unexpectedly, Bian Xiao chose to return to China for high school.

But now that her best friend is back, she definitely won't leave again.

"Indeed, Xiaoxiao, do you think I should wear a white dress or a green one?" Having too many clothes can be a dilemma sometimes.

"White, I'll wear green today," Bian Xiao said, tidying up his thick, black curly hair.

Bian Xiao's hair was so thick and curly that he was exhausted from combing it, so he asked Tina for help.

"Okay~" Lin Zhiqing picked out a white dress; the excellent tailoring gave the skirt a natural, elegant curve. She put on a pair of high heels and walked out of the dressing room, satisfied.

What bag should I wear? I thought about it while chatting with my best friend.

"Where are you staying this time? I've moved. I was tired of the place I lived in before, so now I'm living in a big apartment near Jinling Park."

"I live in Lang District. How about we have a party at my place sometime?" Bian Xiao said as he entered the changing room, starting to feel conflicted.

There are so many green clothes! Let's wear this: a green sundress, a green grape hair clip loosely pinned to the head, and a pair of green low-heeled sheepskin shoes. It's cute, playful, and full of summer vibes.

But my hands were empty, so I needed to find some jewelry. I searched high and low but couldn't find anything suitable.

"Okay, I'm all packed. I'll hang up now. Contact me on the way." Lin Zhiqing hung up the phone. Bian Xiao glanced at the time and decided to forget about it and just go shopping later.

Carrying a small bag and his phone, he declined Tina's offer to accompany him, got into a blue Cadillac, and headed to the address Zhouzhou had posted in the group chat.

"Xiaoxiao!"

"Qingqing!" The two beautiful young girls hadn't seen each other for a long time, and when they met, they immediately hugged each other's arms and were incredibly affectionate.

"Those two are at the bubble tea shop. They ordered you taro milk tea with thick ice, please."

"You really understand me, hehe."

"Qingqing! Let's go buy the swimsuits first. You have to come with me to pick out a bracelet. I just couldn't find a suitable one to match this morning," Bian Xiao complained to her best friend, carrying her small bag.

"Don't worry, I've got your hopes up. We'll buy a few extra swimsuits; we'll be swimming for the photos."

Stepping into the milk tea shop, a cool breeze dispelled the heat from the sun after I got off the bus.

"Is the milk tea ready yet?" Lin Zhiqing asked, linking arms with Bian Xiao.

"Alright, alright, ladies," Qiao Yanzhou said, turning around with two cups of milk tea in hand. Xiao Shuyan was getting two more cups.

"Here, Qingqing, this is for you," Qiao Yanzhou handed the milk tea to Lin Zhiqing. "This is for you, Xiaoxiao. Welcome back to China."

"Welcome back home" It's only been half a year since we last met. Qiao Yanzhou and Xiao Shuyan have grown quite a bit taller, and Bian Xiao has to look up to see them.

The friends, who hadn't seen each other for a long time, exchanged hugs. Xiao Shuyan felt that the girl had become even more beautiful; even the green jade grapes on her temples couldn't compare to the beauty of her eyes.

The moment he let go, Xiao Shuyan felt reluctant, but he still had to let go. It was alright; there would be plenty of time to spend together in the future.

Qiao Yanzhou wore a light gray wool polo shirt and brown-green trousers. He was tall with long legs and had a sunny and cheerful demeanor.

Xiao Shuyan, wearing a white T-shirt, was tall and thin, with a youthful slenderness, and her gaze was lowered. Looking at Bian Xiao, who was busy inserting straws across from her, her demeanor changed from aloof and distant to shy and gentle.

All four were handsome men and beautiful women, and people around them had already secretly taken photos. Bian Xiao, in particular, was a mixed-race beauty with green eyes. Her big, round eyes blinked as she happily slurped up taro paste, her chubby cheeks puffing out, making her look as cute as a porcelain doll. The women next to her really wanted to pinch her cheeks.

"Let's go buy swimsuits first," the four said as they went upstairs, drinking milk tea.

It was the weekend, and the mall was crowded, but since it was morning, it wasn't too packed.

“I don’t like this one, Xiaoxiao, I think you can try it. It’s a bikini, hehe, perfect for hot springs,” Lin Zhiqing said to Bian Xiao, pointing to a royal green velvet beach bikini.

"Uh, is this not a good idea?" Qiao Yanzhou looked at the ceiling.

"Xiaoxiao, whether you like it or not, wear it if you like it, don't wear it if you don't, it's up to you." Xiao Shuyan actually wanted to see it but didn't want to. But in the end, it was up to Bian Xiao's own decision.

"Wear it!" It looks so good, I definitely have to wear it. "Qingqing, I think we should buy some necklaces to match, otherwise it looks too empty."

"That makes sense. We can choose, and then we'll go buy it."

"Aren't you two going to buy anything?" she asked the two boys, turning to them.

"Xiaoxiao, don't worry about them. The two of them only brought two pairs of swim trunks," Lin Zhiqing rolled her eyes and pulled Bian Xiao to look at other swimsuits.

"I don't understand you girls anyway," Qiao Yanzhou retorted, swallowing a pearl.

"This one! This one!" Lin Zhiqing spotted a black swimsuit.

Qiao Yanzhou glanced at it and found it to be a one-piece swimsuit, which he thought was acceptable.

"There doesn't seem to be anything else interesting. Let's pay," Bian Xiao said to the saleswoman behind him.

"Okay, ladies, please come to the counter with me." The saleswoman's smile was dignified and sincere. How could it not be sincere? These two young ladies bought three swimsuits, which weren't expensive, only 15,000 yuan. But when they got carried away, they bought an emerald necklace and a black pearl bracelet, which cost more than 2 million yuan.

"Qingqing, you promised I'd pay, consider this a little gift," Lin Zhiqing said, about to pay, but Bian Xiao stopped her, taking out his phone from his bag. "I'll pay."

"Waaah, Xiao Xiao, you're the best! Love you, mwah!" Lin Zhiqin knew Bian Xiao's family background, and that the pearl bracelet she was talking about was only worth a million. She hugged Bian Xiao's arm and pleaded in a sweet voice.

"Ugh, Lin Zhiqing, can you please stop pinching my eyes?" Qiao Yanzhou covered his eyes with his hand.

"It's not for you to hear, it's for my little Xiaoxiao, isn't that right, little Xiaoxiao?"

"Of course," Bian Xiao would definitely stand by her best friend.

Good heavens, today is another day of witnessing the rich. The saleswoman kept smiling, maintaining her professional demeanor. "Okay, miss, here's the payment: 211 yuan."

After buying it, it was naturally handed over to the two boys.

"Here you go, no objections?" Bian Xiao watched as the saleswomen wrapped the items and handed them to Qiao Yanzhou and Xiao Shuyan, then raised his chin and asked in a deliberately arrogant manner.

"No objection, no objection, I'm happy to be the handbag carrier for the two young ladies," Qiao Yanzhou said, bowing and scraping to Lin Zhiqing and Bian Xiao in a fawning manner.

"Hahaha, alright, let's go, Xiao Qiao, Xiao Xiao, follow me to the next shop!"

Xiao Shuyan watched the three of them making a ruckus, and a smile unconsciously crept onto his lips without him even noticing.
