2 Planning for Shopping

"Is cake ready uncle? I am very hungry". Lu Qian asked while placing her hand on her stomach with a pitiful expression on her face.

"It's almost done. You both go upstairs I will bring it there". After saying this father Zhao smiled at her and also walked into the kitchen.

Both Zhao Mei and Lu Qian climbed the stairs and walked into the living room on first floor. Lu Qian sat on the sofa while Zhao Mei went into the kitchen to bring some snacks.

After few minutes Zhao Mei walked out of kitchen with chips packet in her hand. She sat beside Lu Qian and opened the packet. Both of them started to eat while scrolling on the phone.

Suddenly Lu Qian put down the phone on table and turned towards Zhao Mei. "Meimei we should go to shopping tomorrow".

Zhao Mei raised her head from the mobile phone and turned to Lu Qian. Seeing her sparkling eyes Zhao Mei raised her eyebrow, "For what reason?" She was aware of her best friends love for shopping but still she asked her the reason. She was eager to know the reason for shopping this time.

Lu Qian looked startled at her question then turned to her best friend with shocked expression on her face. "Meimei how can you ask that? For god's sake we are going to attend university and going live in dorm rooms so we have to do some shopping before we move there".

Zhao Mei chuckled at her reason and cut her best friend of from more blabbering while saying, "Ok ok my dear we will go for shopping but why so hurry? There is still time before we move there".

Lu Qian realized her mistake that it was very early for shopping but didn't wanted to accept defeat in front of her friend so she retorted saying, "So what if there is time look at yourself you should do a little bit of makeover. Don't be so lazy when getting dress-up". And like this Lu Qian started criticizing Zhao Mei about her clothes.

Zhao Mei was top student of her high school and has stunning face with almond shape brown eyes, tall nose, thin pink lips, long curly brown hairs and stunning body she never liked to apply any kind of make-up and always refrained from dressing up to avoid any attention. Still she had many admirers in high school.

Seeing that her friend was not going to stop any time soon Zhao Mei sighed and accepted defeat. She knew she can't argue with Lu Qian about this as she herself was aware of this. She stopped her while talking and said, "Ok ok I understand stop criticizing now. We will go for shopping tomorrow".

Seeing her accepting defeat Lu Qian smiled brightly. This was the only topic where she has upper hand on Zhao Mei while arguing. Suddenly she thought of something and added, "We will do shopping for both of us and then we will go to salon together. What do you say?".

Zhao Mei was going to reject her idea of going to salon as she was not going to change her style of hairs or anything like that so it will be waste of time and money. She doesn't lack money but was against the idea of going to salon to waste the time.

"Why are we going to salon? I am not going to salon", said Zhao Mei adamantly while folding her hands in front of her chest showing that she was not going to change her decision.

"You are coming with me. This time I am not going to listen to you", Lu Qian huffed and mimicked her action of folding her hands in front of her chest to show that this time she was also not going to budge.

Seeing Lu Qian copying her action Zhao Mei was going to say more but before she could say anything her father chimed in, "Qianqian is right. You should go to salon too".

He was coming into the living room with chocolate truffle cake in his hand followed by mother Zhao who was carrying can of juice to drink with cake.
