Chapter 393 - Sweet Dream

Name:The Princess and The Lord Author:
Fredhard used to say to her, a believable story is a simple story and so Lory make a simple story about two stranger who came to Fu Yun restaurant as a rich merchant from the Liangzu Kingdom who lived at Jiang An city, to expand their business they invest their money to famous restaurant Fu Yun.

And they bought half of Fu Yun restaurant with a large sum of money, to Improved the restaurant the owner of Fu Yun accepts the offer as a businessman who will refuse people who bought half his restaurant with twice the price he had offered.

When the deal is done the two strangers leave the city and let their younger brother and his wife to run the restaurant because the older brother chooses to stay at Jiang City of the Liangzu Kingdom who is more comfortable than stay at Tang Shen City.

This is an understandable reason if they can choose, people at Tang Shen city would also like to stay at Jiang An city who is more affluent and stable but because they don't have the capital to moves out or they still have high hope to become part of Sacred Mountain Peak disciple no or leave Tang Shen City.

To accommodate their story Lory make Mong Yi to bought a modest house with only two courtyards, although they are rich merchant, but the price of a house in Tang Shen city is unbelievable is twice or thrice the price of a house at Jing An city, of course, the reason is the convoluted law that make people have to pay a lot of permits to government, in short, the price has been markup to increased the cost, no wonder beggar overflew the alley and thugs and robber is everywhere.

If anyone wonders why these beggars, thieves, and such didn't leave the city? It is because to leave they must pay a permit to the government, and so they stuck in that city. They become desperate and willing to do anything to make money and that's how they would end up taking advantage by other people.

Lory read all the report in her small room with deep sighs, this place is a death trap for the poor and the weak. Lory can't help to feel sorry for them. Lory put down the scroll as she lifts her head she notices Zhao Li Xin sit uncomfortably on the chair with a frown.

"What's wrong?" Lory confuse and amused wit Zhao Li Xin's expression.

"It's small…" he said shortly.

"What you mean?" she doesn't understand what he means but his comment make her giggles.

Zhao Li Xin remains upset as he said with a scowl "The room is small, the house is small, the courtyard is small, is so small I don't know where to put my feet on" is rare for Zhao Li Xin to complain, Lory can't hold her herself as she burst to laugh.

The truth is the house that they bought is not too small, it still has a small main garden, a small pond on the corner with small pavilion….okay everything is on mini sizes but that because their Manor is unnecessary hugged even compare to first rank official manor Zhao Li Xin Manor is humongous and very luxurious just like a small royal palace. For him living in a small house like this is upsetting to him, not because he can't live without luxury but because Lory is with him.

If Zhao Li Xin alone he wouldn't complain so much but because Lory stays with him he feel guilty, his princess is very special and she deserved only the best and he promised himself to gives her only the best he could give but this happens! He feel his heart stung when he sees Lory sit on the small desk while reading the report with a small candle, his Princess eyes will get hurt because of this!

Lory rose from her seat and moves around the table as he sits on Zhao Li Xin l.a.p.s "What are you dissatisfied with. This place is not bad just smaller than we used to have" Lory coaxed him with sweet smiles.

The softness of her body lift his bad mood, she already returns to her original appearance where Zhao Li Xin also takes off his skin mask, Lory breathes hicks when his exquisite face get too close to her while, Zhao Li Xin mesmerized by her beautiful face, her purple eyes sparkle under the dimmed light and his paled skin make her lips look plump like red cherry, Zhao Li Xin take a deep breath to control his insatiable d.e.s.i.r.e for her.

"Don't you feel uncomfortable living in this kind environment?" he wrapped his hands on her small waist as he tries to avoid the evil though inside his head. He didn't want to sleep with his precious wife in a small place like this and because this place is small he worries someone will hear his wife m.o.a.n when they do the deeds if that happens it's certain for him to kill anyone who accidentally heard his Princess indulgent voice.

Zhao Li Xin is a possessive guy through and through but he smart enough to hide it from Lory as is not a difficult task when Lory also never gives him a reason to be jealous but still he can't stop to feel irked when a man pays attention to Lory even just the slightest.

Lory who didn't know what her lover thinking was comfortably sat on his laps innocently as she chuckles toward him ��You can worry about a lot of think about me but, you never have to worry about my living space, did I told you a decade of my life I spent in wilderness?" 

"No, you don't…why you lived in the wilderness, why don't you live at your home?" 

Lory purple eyes blink a few times as she smiles softly at him 

'Home' what left of her old home it's only a bittersweet feeling.

The sparkle in her eyes become dimmed, lory peck Zhao Li Xin lips "We should go to sleep!" she rose from his l.a.p.s then run to the bed as she takes off her outer robes and her shoes then she climbs to the bed "Sleep with me…" she patted the bed beside her.

Because Lory didn't answer his question Zhao Li Xin didn't ask further, that just how he shows his loves to her if she wants to talk he will listen if she wants to hides it he will not question her, he doesn't know how the right way to loves a woman especially when he has limited interaction with a human being in general.

But at least he knows what Lory wants, she wants someone who will never leave her no matter what, someone who accepted her unconditionally and that's something he could do.

Zhao Li Xin walk towards the bed, he also takes off his outer robes leaving only inner white silk robes that show his flawless figures, such a sight to behold Lory smiles in content as Zhao Li Xin climb the bed, he covers both of them with a blanket and pulls her closer to his embraces "Don't look at me like that or we won't be sleeping…" he whispers to her ears.

"I don't mind…" Lory said with blushed cheeks.

"But I do!" he replied quickly "This is not the right place to bed my wife," he said with annoyed as his d.e.s.i.r.ed only increasing when her warm body pressed on his.

Lory giggles softly "You think too highly of me" Lory feel touch with his consideration, Fargo said a male is a beast who will devour a woman anywhere and everywhere, that's why she should always warry with opposite s.e.x no matter how righteous that man looks like.

Fargo remainder is imprinted on Lory minds and for a while, she believes this even after she stranded in this new world watching a man have multiple wives she can only sigh and agree silently with Fargo but then Zhao Li Xin come, and everything he knew about a man suddenly changed and sometimes Zhao Li Xin devotion reminds her with her farther devotion to his mother and this thought warmth her heart. Lory finds the comfortable place on Zhao Li Xin embraces then slowly her conscious drift off.

A few minutes later lory breath becomes stable as Zhao Li Xin look down and see her sleeping peacefully, it's been a while since Lory have her insomnia even though the nightmare still there but it's not as often as it used to, is good news because it means her pain might become lesser and it didn't bother her as much. 

Zhao Li Xin stroke his bluish dark hair on her back, he can't stop admiring her beauty everything about her is enchanting, unique and one of the kind, he can stare at her all day long without feeling bored. He never thought one day there would be a woman who able captivate him, the corner of his mouth curved upwards as he pecks her lips lightly.

"Sweet Dream…" he said softly.
