The Undefined Love

The next morning, Lifen woke up as usual. She was helping her mother out in daily courses, when her phone made its presence known to her. It was an early call from Daiyu.

"Hey, girl. Good Morning!", Daiyu greeted when the call was received.

"Early morning Daiyu!", Lifen greeted. There was no hint of sadness in her tone from the previous night as if nothing has ever happened. If there was anything in her voice, then that was only satisfaction. It was like she had ultimately got, what she have craved for.

Yesterday night, anything that was true was only sincerity in Deming's words and she knew it well. She was able to see through his words, eyes and thoughts. But she was unfortunate enough to not accept him even if his feelings were strong and true towards her and the reason behind this was well known. She would never become a third wheel in anyone's relationship. This was against her moral ethics.

"Seems like you are in a good mood, girl. If so then let go for shopping. Soon you would be leaving and we won't have any chance to shop together" , Daiyu made a point.

"Okay, let shop together", Lifen was in no mood to resist such opportunity. She knew that in near future she won't get such chance often, she easily agreed to this.

"That's great. So let's go to Fashionista Square. We will be picking you up in the next half an hour. Go and get ready fast", Daiyu was happy to see Lifen was now no more upset.

"But that's very much expensive. Let's go somewhere else",Lifen knew well how much expensive the mall was because the fashion brand line of Li Corporation was also there. The mall was under Wang Corporations but most of the fashion boutiques in the mall was under Li Corporations. Therefore they were also holding quite big number of shares in that mall.

But right now, since she wasn't officially introduced as the heiress of Li Corporation and her identity was still very well hidden, there was no threat of recognition. Only the employees working at the headquarters has known her and seen her as the heiress, rest of the others have only heard the tales about her work.

"Don't worry about it. It will be from us. We have saved quite a lot for you. Just go and get ready and for the rest leave it on our shoulders ", Daiyu said and without hearing any further word from her, she hung up the call leaving Lifen all speechless.

Exactly after thirty or so minutes, a red Maserati car stopped in front of the coffee-shop. This time there wasn't any driver driving the car, it was Daiyu itself and Guang was sitting beside her in the passenger seat. Lifen knew already that the car was the new gift which Daiyu has received from her parents as a reward of getting into Zhang School of Business but the thing that surprised her was that she was herself driving it without any driver.

Seeing them arrive, Lifen waved her hand to Mother Wu and hurriedly walked to the car, "Whoa! So princess Daiyu is going to shop with her new car. That's a surprise. Hope we can arrive back safely, today", Lifen sarcastically chuckled. Guang too joined in her joke.

"Fine fine!! I would intentionally get into the accident to make your words come true. Now we are getting late, hurry up and get into the car or the Azrael[●] won't take us to the heaven", Daiyu pouted.

Lifen giggled and quickly got into the car. The car soon left.

The Maserati soon got parked in the underground parking lot of the Fashionista Square and the trio enthusiastically went inside the mall.

Fashionista Square was a hub for all latest luxurious brands as well ad trending lifestyle of the country. It was accredited at the no.1 mall of the country and was also registered under the top 10 best infrastructural mall in world.

They went to various boutiques and Daiyu and Guang collectively shopped for Lifen. The Zhang and Zhao families were not that rich but they were among those old money families of the country.

The Zhangs were well known in the educational field while the Zhao were into the real estates from generations.

Daiyu ang Guang didn't allowed Lifen to lift her purse up to pay. They wanted to gift her things they bought for her. Lifen tried hard to deny their gifts but she wasn't able to succeed. At the end they got many bags for her.

When they were almost done, Lifen decided to gift them something too. So she dragged them to a jewellery store. The jewellery shop was one of those that was managed by Li Corporation. So she was sure that money won't be a problem to her in this shop.

Daiyu and Guang didn't reject her willingness and let her buy something for them too. They know a Lifen well and were well knowing what's going on in her head.

"I won't deny your present, but keep a note that your present for me should be prettier than Guang", Daiyu said while glancing at Guang and then without waiting got into the shop.

Lifen and Guang smiled and shook their head looking at Daiyu's words. They went inside the shop.

"Mam, how may I help you?" a sales girl came forward to attend them.

Lifen gave a smile to her, "I was looking for the latest line of charm bracelets. Are the pieces still available in the store?"

The sales girl was a little surprised when she heard Lifen mentioning about them. As far as she was informed, the line hasn't been officially launched in the market yet and was only brought in some of the stores for getting public views about them. Then how did this young lady know about them.

Daiyu and Guang was still oblivious with the facts was just looking around the shop.

The sales girl just gave a look to Lifen and then led them to take seats at the counter. She then rushed inside the shop to inform the manager.

Hearing the words of the sales girl, a mid age man came to look at the customer and he was surprised to see who was she. A grateful smile spread over his lips. He quickly went forward to greet her, "Good afternoon, Ms.Li". Daiyu and Guang was confused seeing the manager greeting Lifen like this.

Lifen was taken aback when she heard someone addressing her a Ms.Li . She quickly turned to look at the manager and hurriedly said in polite words and awkward smile, "Sorry Sir, I think you have mistaken me as someone else". She then shook her head to him indicating him to not reveal anything.

The manager understood her gesture and nodded his head, "Sorry Mam, maybe I got it wrong. Let me help you with the bracelets ".

He then gestured the sales girl to bring the bracelets. The sales girl came with three beautiful pieces of the bracelets arranged on the tray over the soft silk-velvety cloth. The bracelet were representing friendship. All three pieces were inter-connected to each other symbolizing the never ending connection between friends.

Just one look of the bracelet was enough to leave everyone in awe.The designs made Daiyu and Guang eyes lit in admiration.

"Lifen, you don't have to really buy us these beautiful pieces. They are so beautiful but may be out of our budget. Let get something else", Guang said.

"Yes, Lifen. We should buy something else", Daiyu agreed to Guang.

The manager was dumbfounded with their words. He thought to himself, 'Really? If she can't afford to but these. Then probably no one can. For God's sake, she is the one who have approved these designs and also the owner of this whole store, not to mention about the country top fashion industry. These are just a piece of cake to her'.

Seeing her friends helping her out like this, Lifen's lips curled up into a smile, "Don't worry about the price, I have got something for that".

"Really? And what's that? Don't say you won a lottery ", Daiyu exclaimed in excitement.

Lifen shook her head, "No, not a lottery, but something that will help me buy this at a affordable price. I have got a gift coupon for this store and I can buy anything here with a discount of 80%. So tight now, I will buy this."

Daiyu and Guang both squinted their eyes on her saying that they were suspicious about her. At that moment, a soft voice came from behind, "Pack them for me, I will buy them".
