From the expensive restaurant, Zhang Liling orders a cab to a high-end store.
"What are we doing here? I thought you wanted to take back first?" Tungi asked wih a look of surprise on her face.
"We are here to get you an early graduation gift. Let's go in," Zhang Liling said with a smile while pulling her in.
Tungi let herself get dragged inside.
"Miss, welco!" The front attendant greeted.
Zhang Liling murmured a response while continuing pulling Tungi inside. Finally when they got to the main store, she let her arm off.
Thinking deeply while looking around she said, "I don't know what you really need the most, and this is why I should have co to your dorm to take a look at your things to find out what you need the most, but this is fine too. You will get to enjoy the bliss of shopping."
Tungi didn't see shopping as a bliss although she liked to shop sotis and felt that it was a good thing.
But shopping requires money and ti, which she didn't have.
Sotis, she doesn't know how Zhang Liling does it. Spending hours to shop for items.
"Liling, I want to rest today and have a deep sleep. I don't feel like opening my books today, so I would like to return to my dorm on ti to have the remaining day to myself." Tungi said to her.
She ant that she should tell her what to pick, so they would not waste ti there.
Zhang Liling understood and shifted her gaze back to the clothes on the rack.
"What do you want the most?" She asked with a finger on her jaw, and an arm spread across her waist.
Tungi shifted her gaze to the clothes on the rack to crack her brain. What did she need the most?
"To tell you the truth, I need a lot of things..."
Zhang Liling quickly glanced at her and said with a frow, "i, I know you need a lot of things, but I can't be broke."
Tungi burst out laughing. She didn't know that she would admit that she didn't have a lot ofoney in her card.
"My dear Liling, you are thinking too much. I was only joking with you. I need a lot of things, but I'm not asking you to buy them for . I was just saying my mind since you asked a question."
Zhang Liling patted her chest to calm down and said, "Next ti, don't say your mind. Your friend here is not a rich Missy. How I miss luxury, I have never fully enjoyed it."
There was a little distance created in her voice. It looked like she was thinking about the good old days.
"If you haven't fully enjoyed luxury, who taught you to shop and spend money?" Tungi asked in wonder.
She felt that only those, who had money, knew how to spend it well, just like her.
Glancing at her, Zhang Liling asked with a smirk, "Who's my mum again?"
That question was to remind her of who her mother was, and the fact that she learned everything from her due to her profession.
"Alright...alright... What do you want to pick. I have a lot of needs, so what are you going to let part with?" Tungi asked with a smile.
"Let see..." Zhang Liling said as she stepped forward to take a brief glance at so of the clothes on the rail, before shifting her gaze to the little wood compartnt on the walls to glance at the shoes and bags.
"Things here are expensive, so just let pick one item to save you from being broke. I don't even know why you brought here..." Tungi said with a sigh.
"I wanted you to have a quality gift. So things are expensive because of their value, their designers, and the quality of materials used." Zhang Liling pointed out.
Sotis, it was just good to spend your money on quality things if you can afford it. Quality lasts for a long ti.
Turning to her, Zhang Liling suggested, "Why don't you pick any dress of your choice. You can wear it on our graduation day."
"What's the point of wearing an expensive dress without a good shoe to match with it? Forget it, I will pick a bag." Tungi said and started walking towards the bags arranged in the little wood compartnts, but she got pulled away by the arm.
"Who said there won't be a good shoe? Don't ruin this show for . Pick out a good dress and don't worry about other things."
Finally, Zhang Liling got her to pick a royal blue-coloured dress before giving it to her. "Go and try it on, let's see how good it is..."
Tungi examined the dress with a frown. "The back is open, how do you expect to wear this kind of outfit on that day. We are going for our graduation, not a party!"
"Your graduation gown would shield it only till the main orientation and picture taking is over. After that, it will be party after party!" Zhang Liling giggled.
"I will trust your word otherwise, you would have to take responsibility for if my father attacks ." Tungi said before going into the changing room.
A few minutes later, she ca out dressed, looking all pretty.
After twirling and enjoying the beauty of the dress, Tungi realized sothing. "What about you, are you not getting sothing for yourself?"
Zhang Liling shook her head, "I can't afford any expensive item again. I would have to wait for my father to send money next month, or I can ask my mother to buy a dress for ."
"I can't believe you bought sothing this expensive for , and spent so much today when you are already running low? What kind of person are you? Do you even have any savings?" Tungi asked in guilt.
If she knew her bank account balance, she would have never followed her to that expensive restaurant, talk more of coming to this high-end store.
"Sotis, just live for the mont." Zhang Liling said with a smile but then noticed that Tungi was not happy about it.
Not wanting the gift she was getting her to beco aningless, she quickly pulled her to her side and said with a big smile, "Don't mind . I am spending money like this because I have a sure source."
At the end, she winked and pinched Tungi's cheeks, which finally got her a reaction.
Still worried about her friend, she asked "Would your mother give you money if you ask her to?"
"No, she wouldn't. Instead she would buy my dress and other stuff from Paris a few days to our graduation."
Song Jujing was not going to give anymore money to her until next month. She already sent her a good amountast weekend.
"I see, when is she coming?"
"I would have to confirm from her. Anyway, don't worry so much about ..." Zhang Liling said with a smile.
After paying for the dress, the two ladies left the store.
"Don't bother taking back, I will take a cab back to my dorm," Tungi said whilst feeling very grateful to her.
"Nonsense! You still have to manage your resources!"
So, Zhang Liling took her back to her dorm in a cab she flagged down, before going back to Mr. Fang's place.
