Gu Li chuckled. "You're welcome. We'll be friends from now on. You can call me Gu Li or Li Li!"
Yu Zhao pursed her lips and smiled as she looked at her gently.
After the two finished eating, Gu Li suggested going shopping, and Yu Zhao did not reject her.
After spending a few hours together, Yu Zhao found that Gu Li was exactly as Lin Hao said, silly and kind.
"Zhaozhao, have you just arrived in the capital?" Gu Li sized Yu Zhao up, puzzled. "Where are you from?"
"I'm a local," Yu Zhao shrugged. "I was sent overseas and only came back two days ago."
Hearing this, Gu Li was very tactful and did not ask her anymore. Instead, she changed the topic.
This small detail made Yu Zhao feel that Gu Li was even more adorable.
Out of the corner of her eye, she saw a branded lipstick shop. There were all kinds of colors and styles of lipsticks in the window, and the dazzling display of lipsticks dazzled her eyes.
Yu Zhao suddenly thought of something and walked into the store with Gu Li. Her gaze fell on a red bean paste-colored lipstick.
She pointed at it and asked, "How much is that?"
When the salesperson saw Yu Zhao's actions, she immediately approached her enthusiastically.
"Miss, you have good taste. This is our new lipstick launched this summer. It's designed by a world-famous lipstick designer. The materials used were also personally designed by the designer from the L family. The price is only 6800 Yuan."
"So expensive!" Gu Li carefully whispered to Yu Zhao.
Yu Zhao didn't have much of a reaction to this. She pointed at the lipstick packaging and said, "Wrap it up for me."
"Alright." The salesperson opened the packaging for her happily and handed her the lipstick.
Gu Li could not help but swallow her saliva and mumbled, "That's 6800 Yuan! It costs me two months' food expense."
Yu Zhao smiled and handed her the lipstick. "This is for you, my... friend."
"It's too expensive! Zhaozhao, just return it!" Gu Li looked at the lipstick with a pained expression.
"Hmm? There's no reason to return it." Yu Zhao nodded and forcefully stuffed the lipstick into Gu Li's bag. "You don't have to feel burdened. I earned this money from my part-time job."
"You're amazing!" Gu Li was surprised.
Without waiting for Yu Zhao's reply, a few young girls dressed in youthful and beautiful clothes walked over.
"Sister, why are you here?" Yu En looked incredulous when she saw Yu Zhao.
"She's your sister!"
Before Yu Zhao could speak, the young girl standing next to Yu En sneered, "As expected, this wild girl is a country bumpkin. How dare she wear such old-fashioned clothes!"
Yu Zhao's lips curled into a devilish smile. "I thought you were surrounded by well-bred young ladies. Did you not brush your teeth before you come out? Why is your mouth so smelly?"
"Who are you talking about?" The young girl was instantly enraged.
"I'm speaking to whoever answered." Yu Zhao shrugged her shoulders. "I wasn't talking about you."
"You!"
The young girl choked and glared at Yu En angrily. "No wonder Uncle Yu is so good to you. It turns out that there's an adopted troublemaker in the family. Serves you right for not receiving fatherly love."
"Baizhi, don't say that. She's my sister after all." Yu En frowned and looked at Yu Zhao. "Sister, please don't blame them. My classmates are a little willful and don't know how to behave."
Bai Zhi pursed her lips. "Hmph, that's what it is!"
Yu En didn't say anything.
Yu Zhao narrowed her eyes and glanced at them. She said indifferently, "Oh, so I'm not your biological sister? Thank you, Xiao En. I only found out today that I'm not dad's biological daughter."
Bai Zhi was stunned and didn't say anything.
Yu En was shocked. She widened her eyes and hurriedly apologized, "Sister, no, I didn't mean that. I... I..."
"It's okay, I know what you mean," said Yu Zhao casually, "You don't have to defend me after all. It's all thanks to you that I could see the beautiful rivers and mountains abroad."
Yu En bit her lower lip, her beautiful almond-shaped eyes filled with tears. She looked at Yu Zhao pitifully as if she had been wronged.
Bai Zhi couldn't take it anymore. "Hey, what are you saying? What do you mean it's all thanks to Xiao En? You brought this on yourself!"
