Ash and Sasha planned to go to Forbidden City, Beijing.

They looked around the imperial palace and met some people who dressed tradionally.

They were hungry so decided to go to a nearby restaurant.

"It is so hot outside." Sasha says as she takes a sip of her orange juice.

Ash agrees, her sweat was dripping on her neck.

"But were going home after this right?" Asks Ash.

"No honey, we have to go somewhere else next." Sasha says.

"What? I thought were only going here." Ash raises her brows.

"Excuse me, you still need to learn more about chinese culture." Sasha says.

"And what does that connect to the next place we're going?" Ash asks.

"You're going to try a qipao, it's a wedding dress." Sasha grins.

"What? Why do I need to try that on?" Ash says as she stuffs more food in her mouth.

"Just because. It's fun, and their qipao's are really beautiful." Sasha says.

They went to Shiatzy Chen in Chaoyang District.

It was a long ride but Sasha wanted to make Ash try traditional qipaos.

As they went inside, Sasha shows Ash really nice qipaos.

"I like this red one!" Sasha points at the hunged qipao.

"I like the green one, I guess." Says Ash.

"So, what do you want to try on?" Asks Sasha.

Ash tried looking for a really nice qipao, and she found a beautiful one.

"I want this one." She says as she waves a red qipao with white flowers in it.

"Nice pick! I like it too." Smiles Sasha.

Sasha picked a red longfeng gua.

As they looked at each other, it looked good on both of them.

"That qipao hugs the shape of your waist!" Sasha says in awe.

"That you're wearing is so bright yet so long and really eye attracting." Smiles Ash.

They bought the dresses that they got and went home.

"Why did we even buy those anyways." Ash says as she checks the price tag after a 100 times.

"I don't know, I just felt bad for the old lady, we tried them on and not buying them is just really unkind for me." Sighs Sasha.

The two had wasted their money buying a dress that they won't even get to wear.

"Atleast, you got a souvenir?" Sasha sheepishly smiles.

After two days, Yu decided to make a plan to meet the gang in a milk tea place at 9:35 PM

Ash and Sasha arrived at Happy Lemon and chose a table at the very corner.

Ash got a normal milktea while Sasha got a chocolate boba tea.

Two of them were waiting for the others to come.

Connor comes first, second is Zhi Ting, and the last one is Dylan.

They were all complete, well Yi Tian couldn't go because he was in a family dinner, and Darren didn't want to go.

"She was the one who made this plan, why isn't she here?" Asks the impatient Dylan.

"I tried texting her, but she won't reply." Says Sasha.

"Maybe she's going to be very late." Says Ash.

They waited for an hour, and still there was no sign of Yu in there.

Then Sasha's phone beeped.

"Sorry, I couldn't go. Family problems, Bà got admitted to the hospital." Sasha reads the text she got from Yu.

"So it's just us." Says Connor.

Ash keeps poking the ice in her cup with her straw, while Dylan was very annoyed.

Dylan then gets the straw out of her hand and puts it next to him.

Ash just looks at him in confusion.

"It's very annoying." Says Dylan.

The others just looked at each other.

"Dylan gets annoyed easily, and gets mad easily. Don't worry he's a bad tempered grandpa." Chuckles Sasha.

"So Ash, how's Forbidden City? Did you like it?" Asks Zhi Ting.

"Yes, It was a really nice palace, but it was just so hot." Nods Ash.

"It was so hot that we were about to drown in our sweat." Sasha exaggerates.

Dylan gave both a disgusted look and went back to his phone.

"But we went to this dress shop and I got a qipao while Sasha got a longfeng gua." Smiles Ash.

"Why? Are you guys going to get married to someone?" Zhi Ting grins.

"Well, I didn't want the old lady to be sad, so that's why we bought it." Sasha pouts.

Connor smiled at Sasha, his heart softening after what she just said.
