   Yichen and Xianzi have known each other their whole lives. Them and their biological sibling were adopted from China by French families in Orléans, France, who are childhood friends.
It's the year 1973, in the month of Late August. It's the month before Xianxi goes into her sophomore year. Xianxi has been crushing on Yichen but she has even before he give her the kiss he seems to always act like he doesn't remember.
Fairy —her english name/name she goes by and it's what her name means— is waiting for Yichen's call on the hour, what she does everyday. Instead, a few minutes before the hour, there's a knock on the door and Xianzi goes to answer it.
Xianzi- Chen, is that you?
Yichen- It's me, darling.
Xianzi- (she opens the door) I've been waiting for you.
Yichen- (he looks at his watch to see the time) Now it's the time I would call you. I thought I come early so I can see you.
Xianzi- Come early for what?
Yichen- Darling, did you forget what today is?
Xianzi- Oh, right. Today is the day you and my brother move into your dorms at the University of Orléans. But... but why are you early? Really early?
Yichen- You. Because of you. My little best friend.
Xianzi- I'm not little.
Yichen- Okayy. So, can I come in, little bow🎀?
Xianzi- Please come in. I want that.

this is the dress Xianzi is wearing:!

of course will be wearing dresses, all her girl friends will be and with ballet flats or mary janes, and bows in their hair. they're all soft pink coquette girls!

   She lets him in and the door gets closed a little. Fairy goes to sit on the bed.
Yichen- Your room looks different from the last time I saw it.
Xianzi- Of course, I have to keep up with the times.
Yichen- But still with the soft pinks and the Marilyn Monroe, Audrey Hepburn, Elizabeth Taylor, Katherine Hepburn, Natalie Wood, Sharon Tate, Susan Dey, and Doris Day pictures. And of course, David Cassidy.
Xianzi- Why would I change that? They are some of my favourite actresses and actor, I love them all.
Yichen- And you love soft pinks.
Xianzi- Yes.
Yichen- You so have a big crush on David.
Xianzi- I do not. You love Sharon Tate, and Marilyn Monroe, Audrey Hepburn, and Elizabeth Taylor.
Yichen- Yes, but not like you love David Cassidy.
   Ever since Yichen assumed that Xianzi has a crush on Cassidy, she uses it to hide her crush for Yichen. Not to say she doesn't like David Cassidy, she just doesn't have any romantic feelings for him.
Yichen- Then why do you own the albums from "The Partridge Family"? You and the girls listen to them all the time.
Xianzi- Because I love the show, the music, and they do too. Please, just come sit with me and Wángzǐ.
   He goes to sit down next to her and the cat on the bed and has his head facing her. He doesn't except it but she goes to hold onto him to hug him.
Xianzi- I missed you so much.
Yichen- (he holds her back) I missed you.
Xianzi- I'm going to miss you more when you're away at the university.
Yichen- You're not going to miss Liren?
Xianzi- (she brakes the hug) It's different. I'll. miss. you. more.
Yichen- Okay. (he smiles at her) You're bring adorable.
Xianzi- Missing Liren would be different because he's my brother and you're not.
Yichen- I'm not your brother? You're like my baby sister. You are six months younger than my sister.
Xianzi- Hey, don't joke like that?! Are our parents married, are we step-siblings, half or biological? No. So don't say I'm like your baby sister again. I'm not your sister at all.
Yichen- Okay. I won't. Where did all that come from?
Xianzi- I don't know. It just came out. I don't know where it came from.
Yichen- Okay. That's fine. We'll be best friends and nothing else.
Xianzi- (she says in her head) I want us to be something else. Chen Chen, I want you to be mine.
Yichen- Zizi?
Xianzi- Huh? What's the book you're reading now? I want to read it next.
Yichen- Are you up for it? It's very passionate.
Xianzi- Passionate?
Yichen- Yes, darling.
Xianzi- Can you tell me about passionate?
Yichen- When two people fall in love they will find themselves wanting to be close each other, really close.
Xianzi- What would they do, if they want to be really close?
Yichen- Well, they make love.
Xianzi- Can you explain making love?
Yichen- Zizi, I'm not sure I should do that. You're fourteen.
Xianzi- Why not? I'll be fifthteen soon. I want you to teach me what passionate is.
Yichen- I can led you books on it.
Xianzi- No. I don't need books.
Yichen- The book I'll led you, will tell you. Okay.
Xianzi- Okay, Chen.
While they talk more, their hands find they're way to one other and slide against each other. Xianzi goes straight into his arms, wrapping her arms around his neck.
Xianzi- I'm going to miss you so much. What will I do without you?
Yichen- (he holds onto her) Darling, I won't be that far away. You know, I'll still be in Orlèans because I'll be at the university. And besides, you still have my sister Xiuli, Cláude, and Greer.
Xianzi- You don't get it. You are my best friend!
Yichen- They're your best friends too.
Xianzi- (she looks back at him) You know it's different.
Yichen- How?
Xianzi- You! (she says in her head: kiss me, kiss me!) You and I tell each other everything. And do you think they know me better than you do?
Yichen- No. Absolutely not. I'm your one and only.
Xianzi- Why did you say that?
Yichen- I don't know but it's true. I see you as my one and only.
Xianzi- One and only what?
Yichen- My one and only best friend whom I tell anything about. I can't do that with Liren, or Francis and Gideon.
Xianzi- I'll be here for you always. You know Cláude likes Gideon.
Yichen- (he breakes the hug & let's go of her) I do know this but it isn't—
Xianzi- So you're my one and only too?
Yichen- Of course. I already said that. We tell things to each other, we can't tell anyone else.
Xianzi- Really? Like what?
Yichen- Well, for one, I let you read my secret romance books that I read.
Xianzi- Yes. You hide them behind your comics.
Yichen- You're the only one who knows about that. Don't let anyone know.
Xianzi- Of course I don't. That's like our secret. I love having secrets with you.
Yichen- I'll call you—
Xianzi- What? No. You're not leaving already? (she grabs his hand & holds onto it tight) Please don't leave.
Yichen- Darling, we will see each other again. Is there something you're afraid of?
Xianzi- Yichen. I just hope this doesn't mean we will spend less time together.
Yichen- Of course not. (he holds onto both her hands) I'll sneak away if I have to. You're my favourite.
Xianzi- So you're not leaving me?
Yichen- What? You're my best friend, are you not?
Xianzi- Yes, yes. You're my favourite.
Their hands find they're way through each others.
Xianzi- Best friends forever.
Fairy loves for their relationship to be more but she doesn't think Yichen feels the same and she feels that he doesn't want anything more than friends.
Yichen- That's right.
They're hands slipped away from each other and Yichen gets up. He walks to the door but Fairy stops him before he can walk out by wrapping her arms around him from behind.
Yichen- Xianzi.
Xianzi- I'm not letting go.
Yichen- Come on, Xianzi. Your brother is expecting me. I should go.
Xianzi- You don't have to. We can spend time together today. Sleepover?
Yichen- Fairy, not today, okay?
Xianzi- When?
Yichen- Saturday. We can spend the whole day.
Xianzi- What about you sleeping over? Ugh, now you, my brother, and the De Chateur twins can't have your sleepovers here anymore.
Yichen- Will you miss that?
Xianzi- Yes. You know you would sneak to my room when they were all asleep. You even told me to wait for you.
Yichen- But I never slept in your room, we talked for a while and then I went back to Liren's room.
Xianzi- Now, we can have sleepovers.
Yichen- When you're older, maybe.
Xianzi- What? I'll be fifteen next month.
Yichen- When you turn sixteen.
Xianzi- What?!
Yichen- When you turn sixteen we can have sleepovers.
Xianzi- 没有！(No! <chinese translation to english)
Yichen- Why are you changing languages on me?
Xianzi- (she talks more in Mandarin) Because I don't want to wait that long. I want to be able to wake up with you next to me. (he didn't hear this because she said it in her head)
Yichen- Xianzi? Did you hear what I said? Why are you changing languages on me?
Xianzi- I heard what you said. I love when we stay up talking. I just want more of them.
He pulls her arms away, turns around, and looks down at her.
Xianzi- Hey!
Yichen- Come closer.
   She goes straight to wrap her arms around him and holds on.
Yichen- I promise you I'll do something for your birthday.
Xianzi- You better keep it. I love spending my birthdays with you.
Yichen- I know. I do the same.
Xianzi- I don't want you to leave.
Yichen- Don't worry. I'll come back.
Xianzi- I'll miss you.
Yichen- You're expecting Clàude soon, right?
Xianzi- How do you know that? I didn't say she was coming over.
Yichen- I just know you're going to call her to come over.
Xianzi- Why is that?
Yichen- Because I know you. Okay. I should go now. I'll see you later.
   He kisses her on the left side of her head where her bangs are. He does this before she can say anything.
   Xianzi has medium length hair with the part parted in the middle and bangs styled on each side, even her hair is half up half down with a bow of course.
   So after Yichen leaves, Xianzi goes straight to call Cláude on her baby pink landline phone.
Xianzi- Bonjour, Cláude.
Cláude- I know why you're calling.
Xianzi- How fast can you get here? I need to tell you everything. Gosh. Yichen, ugh, he is so— (Cláude hangs up before she can finish what she was going to say) Uh? Cláude? Cláude??
   She puts the phone down and then she gets a knock on the door.
Xianzi- That was quick. Come in!
The door opens and someone walks in.
Xianzi- Clàude, you— Évarad? What are you doing here?
Evarad- Did you forget we had plans today?
Xianzi- Oh, sorry. I did. Can we take a rain check? I made plans with Clàude.
He ignores what she says.
Evarad- This is because of Ben Lebeau, isn't it?
Xianzi- What? Did you not hear what I said?
Edarad- You said you made plans with Ben Lebeau.
Xianzi- No, I did not! He already has other plans today. Him and my brother are moving into their dorms at the University.
Evarad- But he is the reason you forgot. You have seen him today. Gosh, I wish you two never got close.
Xianzi- (she says in her head) Well, that wish will never come true, Yichen is my best friend, not you! (she says out loud to him) You should go. We'll hang out some other time.
Liren and Yichen are about to leave but Yichen gets a feeling there's something wrong with Xianzi. So he starts to get out of the vehicle.
Liren- Yichen? Where are you going?
Yichen- Something's wrong with Zizi.
Liren- What?
Yichen- I mean I forgot something in her room. I'll be back.
Liren- Okay.
Yichen walks inside the Amidalè Château Manor, up the y stairs, and to Xianzi's room. He sees three people in the room but he goes up behind Èvarad.
Yichen- She told you to leave.
Evarad- Lebeau, stay out of this!
Yichen- How dare you tell me to stay out of it?! I will be in it! How dare you?!
He goes up closer behind him and goes to pull up his underwear giving him a wedgie. Xianzi loved that Yichen did that. Èvarad gives the reaction anyone does when they get a wedgie.
Yichen- Now will you leave.
Èvarad just storms out of there and Yichen goes straight to Xianzi. He talks to her in Mandarin Chinese the whole time and she talks in Mandarin back to him.
Yichen- (he speaks in Mandarin) Darling, he didn't hurt you, did he?
Xianzi- N— Yes. He did. He did. Hurt me.
Yichen- Where?
   He puts his hand under her dress and feels along her stomach.
Yichen- Does it hurt here?
He touches more around her stomach and then up her chest, everywhere along her chest, everywhere.
Yichen- Will you tell me where it hurts or will I just keep touching you?
Xianzi- It does hurt. Everywhere.
Yichen- How? If he were to hurt you, he would hit you on the face and your cheek isn't even red. Xianzi, why are you trying to trick me?!
Xianzi- No. I'm not.
Yichen- Xianzi, don't jest with me.
Xianzi- Darling, I jest not.
Yichen- I know when you call me darling, you're up to no good.
Xianzi- 没有。这不是真的。(No. That's not true. <chinese translation to english)
Yichen- 仙子？！我知道你在做什么。(Xianzi?! I know what you're doing. <chinese translation to english)
Xianzi- What am I doing?
Yichen- You're teasing with me.
Xianzi- Fine. I only said yes because I wanted you to touch me.
Yichen- Xianzi! You know I shouldn't be touching you.
Xianzi- Why not? (she says low) I want you to touch me.
Yichen- What did you say? Xianzi, I can't touch you.
Xianzi- Are you saying that kiss should of never happened?
Yichen- Yes. I should of never kissed you.
Xianzi- So you regret it?
Yichen- Yes. Nothing is allowed to happen between us, you know that.
Yichen keeps on asking Xianzi the same question because she seems to not hear him.
Yichen- Xianzi? Did Èvarad hurt you?
Xianzi- I know nothing is allowed to happen between us.
Yichen- What? That had nothing to do with my question.
Xianzi- Sorry. I dozed off.
Yichen- No kidding. You really went somewhere for like a few minutes. Where did you go?
Xianzi- I don't want to talk about it, you know I don't like talking about my daydreams.
Yichen- I know, they upset you. We don't need to talk about it.
The daydreams that Xianzi have really do upset her even though Yichen doesn't know what happens in them, because she feels he doesn't feel the same as her since he acts as if he doesn't remember the kiss he gave her.
Xianzi- Èvarad didn't hurt me. He came over because he made plans with me but I forgot about them.
Yichen- You don't want to participate in those plans with him?
Xianzi- At the time I didn't but he insisted. You came back.
Yichen- I know you don't want me to go. Tomorrow. We can spend the whole day together.
Xianzi- I'll miss you.
Yichen- I know. You always say that when we part.
Xianzi- Well, you're my best friend and I want to be able to spend all my days with my best friend.
Yichen- Yes, I do the same. Umm, I told Liren that left something in your room and that's why I came here. So, that's what he thinks...
Xianzi- Oh.
Yichen- Can I borrow something he hasn't seen before? Or...
Xianxi- You want to borrow me?
Yichen- Xianzi. We'll see other again, I promise. 亲爱的。你想制定更多计划吗？(Xianzi shakes her head yes) 我会带你去卢瓦尔河谷。我们会去舍农索城堡，弗朗索瓦二世和苏格兰玛丽女王就是在这里结婚的，然后参观他们在位期间居住的布卢瓦城堡。我知道你有多喜欢去那里。
(Darling. You want to make plans? I'll take you to Loire Valley. We'll go to Château de Chenonceau, where Francis II and Mary, Queen of Scots were wedded and then visit Château of Blois where they lived while their reign. I know how much you love going there. <chinese translation to english)
Xianzi- Oooh, I want to go. And can we also go to Château de Chambord?
Yichen- I'm assuming you want to go to Versailles Palace too.
Xianzi- Oooh, yes please!
Yichen- Then we will go and we'll make plans to go to the cinema.
Xianzi- I love that.
Yichen- (he takes her hands & holds onto them) Darling, just because I'll be at the university doesn't mean we'll spend less time together so I want to make sure we can spend as much time together as we can. Then you don't have to miss me.
Xianzi- But... (she says it but he doesn't hear it) But I miss you now.
   While Yichen looks for something to borrow from Xianzi, Wangzi the cat walks over to Cláude and rubs up against her right leg.
Claude- Awe, Wangzi. You want Auntie Cláude to hold you?
She picks up the cat and holds him in her arms. Yichen goes to walk out the door but Xianzi stops him by grabbing his hand. It makes him turn to look at her.
Xianzi- Horseback riding.
Yichen- You want to make plans to go horseback riding too?
Xianzi- Yes. Yes, I want that.
Yichen- Then we'll do it. I'm leaving now.
Xianzi- Okay. I'll miss you.
Yichen- I'll miss you.
   He goes to kiss her on the side of the head, then leaves the room and closes the door behind him.
   Xianzi goes to sit down on the bed. Cláude goes to sit down on the bed with the cat in her arms, when she sits she sets the cat down on the bed in the middle of her and Xianzi.
Claude- What was it you were saying about Ben when I hung up on you? Sorry about that by the way.
Xianzi- (she's still talking in mandarin) That, I was going to say... Yichen is so gosh damn hot.
Claude- Fairy, French. Speak in French. I can't understand you. You're still talking in Mandarin.
Xianzi- Oh. (she talks back in French) Sorry. That always happens when Yichen and I speak in a different language.
Claude- It's fine. I know how you two are. Please. Tell me what you said?
Xianzi- Ugh, Yichen is so hot.
Claude- What do you think of Évarad?
Xianzi- I don't really know. I do know I love Yichen's company more. Évarad is nice but he can be very demanding at times, I don't really like it because he doesn't seem to listen to what I have to say and blames everything on Yichen.
Claude- You have a favourite? Fairy? Did you hear what I said?
Xianzi- I did. (she points to the door & then goes to whisper in Cláude's ear) Yichen. He's listening at the door. I can feel it.
Claude- So, who's your favourite? Ben or Évarad?
Xianzi- Well, Yichen is my best friend, we've been inseparable since the year after I was born. I don't know anything else without him in my life.
Claude- He has always been there, huh?
Xianzi- He's one of the best things in my life.
Claude- Oh, I love you too.
Xianzi- (she goes to hug her) You know you're my sister. You've always been a sister to me.
Claude- (she hugs her back) I know, I know. I know the relationship between you and Ben. And I know what that means for me. I understand, the connection you two have because I have that same connection with Gideon.
Xianzi- I think he's gone.
Claude- Really?
Xianzi- (she breaks the hug) Yeah. I can't feel him anymore. I'll show you.
Claude- Okay.
Xianzi- (she gets up & goes over to the door to open it) Yichen? Yichen? Yichen!? See, no Chen Chen.
She closes the door and goes to sit back down with Clàude. Xianzi pets on the cat while they talk.
Claude- So, Ben is your favourite?
Xianzi- Well...—
Claude- Not well. He is your favourite.
Xianzi- Okay, he is. Of course he is. I barely know Évarad. Sometimes he feels like a stranger. And I don't always like to spend time with him.
Claude- Pursue Ben.
Xianzi- What? Do what?
Claude- Pursue him. You're crushing on him, right?
Xianzi- But it's only a crush. I'll get over it. And I can't. He's just my brother's best friend, Xiuli's older brother. My parents will never let us be together. Clàudette, I can't. We're like forbidden to be together.
Claude- You're telling me you are okay with being just his friend.
Xianzi- Nothing more can happen. Being just friends with him is better than anything.
Claude- Okay. You know, your friendship with Ben is like Gideon and mine.
Xianzi- No. Don't compare them. They're not the same. You both aren't forbidden to be together. Because soon you two will be together and Yichen and I will still be friends.
Claude- You can't say it won't happen.
Xianzi- But, he could literally be my brother, we were both adopted by french families. Who knows, we could be related.
Claude- No. You both can't be. You were born in different cities. Aren't the cities 20hrs and 6mins away from each other?
Xianzi- Yes. That's right.
Claude- Let's not talk about this anymore. Let's talk about something else.
Xianzi- You know Évarad will call and apologize.
Claude- He always does.
    Right after she says that the phone line starts ringing. Xianzi looks at Clàude like she doesn't want to answer it because she knows who it is.
Claude- It's okay. Answer it.
   Xianzi gets up and goes over to the phone, takes it, goes back to sit on the bed so Clàude can listen in on the phone call.
Xianzi- Évarad?
Evarad- I-I'm sorry. I'm so sorry for yelling at you. I shouldn't have done it. We weren't supposed to hang out today, I just wanted to spend the day with you.—
Xianzi- Évarad, it's okay.
Evarad- So, you're not mad at me?
Xianzi- I'm not mad at you, I promise.
Evarad- About Ben. I'm sorry.
Xianzi- What? You mean when you mention him? He and I really didn't have plans today. Him and my brother had plans to move into their dorms at the University.
Evarad- Did you see him any time before I came over?
Xianzi- No. Only when he came to get you to leave.
Evarad- Does he hate me?
Xianzi- No. He doesn't. He just wanted to get you to leave, that's all. He doesn't hate you.
Evarad- Okay. Can I see you again?
Xianzi- Of course. We're friends, right?
Evarad- Right. I should go. I'll call you later, okay.
Xianzi- Okay. Bye. 
She hangs up on the phone and sets it down.
Claude- He sounds like a child. And if he knew Ben, he's not the type to hate anyone. Especially if he doesn't like them.
Xianzi- You... How do you know that??
Claude- From you.
Xianzi- Who said Yichen doesn't like Évarad?
Claude- I thought he didn't. Am I wrong?
Xianzi- Oh. Well, Yichen isn't going to tell me I can't hang out with him.
Claude- I guess not. You lied to Évarad.
Xianzi- I know. Wait, what time is it?
Claude- (she looks at her watch) Eleven fifty-eight.
Xianzi- (she holds onto Clàude's hand) Clàudette?
Claude- You want to talk to Yichen alone?
Xianzi- If it's okay with you. I can tell you about the conversation later.
Claude- It's okay with me. I'll go call Gideon. I'll go now.
Xianzi- Thank you. I love you.
Claude- I love you.
She leaves the room and soon the phone rings and Fairy answers it.
Xianzi- I miss you. It's been too long since I've been with my best friend.
Yichen- It has not. I miss you.
Xianzi- How's it going over there?
Yichen- Fine, fine. Liren smelled Cherry Blossom and Tea Rose on me and was wondering why I smell like his little sister?
Xianzi- Huh? Oh, right. That's because I never let go of you when you were here.
Yichen- You kept on hugging on me and wouldn't let go. Of course, I have your scent on me.
Xianzi- Oooh, I like how that sounds. "I have your scent on me." (she says in her head)
Yichen- Xianzi.
Xianzi- What?
Yichen- You disappeared for a second.
Xianzi- I miss my best friend.
Yichen- That's what you were thinking about.
Xianzi- Yeah.
Xianzi- At one. Call me at the theater, the girls and I are going to see a Sharon Tate movie.
Yichen- Valley of The Dolls 1967. I love that movie, I wish I could go.
Xianzi- I remember when you first introduced me to that movie.
Yichen- Darling. I should go. I'll call you at one.
Xianzi- But... We didn't talk that long. Yichen?!
Yichen- Okay. Just a little longer. That's okay with me.
They talk a lot more and then after a while they end the call. Right after Yichen puts the phone down, Gideon walks in the dorm room.
Gideon- Yichen, something wrong?
Yichen- She's fourteen. How can I be falling for her?!
Gideon- What's wrong with the age difference? Clàude and I have the same age difference.
Yichen- You two will able to be together, not like Xianzi and I.
Gideon- What?! How can you say that? Uh, I hate how you talk like that.
Yichen- Even if I don't think that anymore, either way the out come is the same. I see her falling for David Cassidy. I mean who can compete with that.
Gideon- He is attractive and all the girls woo over him.
Yichen- (he repeats what he said, by agreeing to him) He is attractive. Even Xianzi woos over him when we watch "The Partridge Family" together.
Gideon- You get jealous. Don't you?
Yichen- I... Fine, I do. I don't mind she likes him, I just wish...That she wants me and not him.
Gideon- Ben, don't you know what you're saying? He lives miles away, you act like something could happen between them. And he's eight years older than her, what's going to happen?
Yichen- I guess I never think about that. He looks so young and the way Xianzi looks at him. It's like she's under a spell or something.
Gideon- Wait, who said something about Clàude and I getting together?
Yichen- Don't you like her?
Gideon- I do. But she's in love with David Cassidy too.
Yichen- I get he's good looking and he can sing but why does he have to still our girls.
Gideon- Like that's true. He doesn't even know them and like it's ever going to happen. He lives millions of miles away.
Yichen - Yeah. I don't even get what we're worried about.
Gideon- Because Clàude and Fairy want him and not us.
Yichen- Yes. Do you think he's more attractive than me?
Gideon- Of course not. Gosh, you're the only guy I know who is cocky.
Yichen- I am beautiful.
Gideon- Let's face it, we look up to David Cassidy/ Keith Partirdge.
Yichen- Not just us, Liren and Francis do too.
Gideon- Have you ever thought about having her fall for you?
Just then Liren and Francis walk in.
Liren- What were you two talking about?
Gideon- That we all look up to David Cassidy.
Liren- That is true.
Francis- Heartthrob...
Yichen- He is.
They end up all leaving together. Back at Amidalè Château Manor, Xianzi just got done telling Clàude her phone call with Yichen.
Claude- It's so funny how Yichen is so convinced that you have this huge crush, in love with David Cassidy.
Xianzi- What? It is not funny.
Claude- Have you tried to convince him otherwise?
Xianzi- You know I have. It's easier for him to know that so I can keep my real crush a secret.
Claude- What about how you and Yichen don't keep secrets from each other?
Xianzi- That's true but I can't tell him. I want to tell him but nothing can happen between us so what's the point?
Claude- (she changes the subject) Oh, right. I want to ask you about the secret admirer love letters.
Xianzi- Oh. I'm still receiving them.
Claude- Still haven't figured out who it is?
Xianzi- No.
Claude- Évarad?
Xianzi- No. It can't be him. I can't see him writing like that. But I could see it being Guangchang Jinhua.
Claude- True. But him and Greer are close.
Xianzi- Maybe he doesn't have feelings for her.
Claude- Xianzi, your talking about your betrothed.
Xianzi- I know. Well, he isn't unattractive.
Claude- I agree, but... Xianzi.
Xianzi- Of course, Yichen is hotter. I have no interest in Jinhua.
After she says that Xiuli and Greer walk in the room.
Greer- You have no interest in who, Xianzi?
Xianzi- I have no interest in Jinhua.
Greer- You did tell me I could have him since you don't want him or want to marry him.
Xianzi- And I meant that. We were talking about the secret admirer love letters I'm receiving.
Xiuli- Well, have you found out who it is?
Xianzi- No. Nothing.
   They soon leave to the movie theater. Before they get to watch the movie Xianzi gets a call from the college at the phone booth.
Xianzi- Chen?
Yichen- Yes, it's me. You know that, darling.
Xianzi- I miss my best friend.
Yichen- I miss you. Do you have anything to tell me?
Xianzi- Do I? Well, I did talk about you a little.
Yichen- Really? What did you say?
Xianzi- I did just say your name.
Yichen- What did you say about me?
Xianzi- Why do you want to know?
Yichen- How dare you answer me with a question.
Xianzi- What I said earlier when you were listening into Clàude and I's conversation.
Yichen- I did that?
Xianzi- I know you did. I know you better than anyone, of course I knew.
Yichen- You called me the same thing.
Xianzi- I told Clàude I have no interest in Jinhua but he's not unattractive.
Yichen- What brought that conversation on?
Xianzi- You know the secret admirer love letters I get? I told her I could see it being him sending me them.
Yichen- You don't think it's him, do you?
Xianzi- No. Because even though he's my betrothal, I know he doesn't have feelings for me and I don't have feelings for him. I know him that much and he's even told me.
Yichen- Are you closer to him or me? 
Xianzi- Is Chen jealous? That I have a close guy friend other than him.
Yichen- No.
Xianzi- If it makes you feel any better, I spent more time with you than him.
Yichen- I don't think it does.
Xianzi- Chen, you're my favourite. I'd more rather spend time with you than anyone.
Yichen- That's better.
   Xianzi gets interrupted by Clàude, telling her she needs to hang up the call.
Yichen- Zizi? Do you have to go?
Xianzi- Yeah. I'd rather talk to you now.
Yichen- You will end up missing the movie. We can spend the day together tomorrow.
Xianzi- I can't wait. Also, remember the movie is two hours and three minutes long, so you know.
Yichen- Yes.
Xianzi- You don't mind waiting two hours to talk to me again.
Yichen- I don't think so.
Xianzi- Chen, you don't need to hear my voice every hour on the hour.
Yichen- Gosh, I love it when she calls me chen. (he says that in his head) I know I'll miss you.
Xianzi- I'll miss you.
After she says that, Clàude hangs up the call.
Xianzi- Clàudette, why did you do that for?
Claude- Don't you remember the movie??
Xianzi- I remember.
Claude- Let's go. You really talk to Ben too much.
Xianzi- I love talking to him.
Claude- I know.
   They meet back up with the girls and the four of them go watch a two hour movie together.
