The seventh prince, Mok Lok Son is looking shyly at the girl in front as she talking to him. It's unusual for someone to express care and concern for him. But he was happy that someone actually didn't dislike him for being an idiot and will talk to him. After listening to what Ba Yue had said, he replies:
"I usually don't come outside by myself because I was told not to by everyone. But very soon, it will be my imperial father's birthday. I wanted to buy him a present, so I sneaked outside early this morning and haven't eaten anything yet. I was hungry when I walked pass by this restaurant. The food smelled so yummy, so I want to go inside to eat some food. But as soon as I walked into those doors, my second imperial brother that was coming out saw me and somehow got angry." The seventh prince has a confused look on his face as he tells her, he didn't understand why his brother would get angry at him.
Ba Yue noticed the seventh prince's left hand has injured as he was talking to her. She reaches into her pocket and took out her white silk handkerchief, and then start wrapping around his hand and tied a beautiful butterfly knot when she's done.
"You hand is injured, I can only wrap it up for you now. When you returned to the palace, make sure you clean the wound and apply some medicated cream on it. Or just have the imperial doctor take a look at it"
"Thank you, big sister, you are so nice and kind!" The seventh prince thanked Ba Yue for taking care of his wound, he had a big bright smile on his face. The smile is so bright and warm that it felt like the sun.
"Don't call me big sister, I'm not your sister and you are older than me!" Ba Yue is getting a little annoyed now from hearing this man who's older than her kept calling her "BIG" sister! She has been called "FAT" already since being reborn into this body! She doesn't need the word "BIG or OLD" attach to her too!
"But…."
"No, but! And I have to go home now, goodbye." Her voice sounds a little annoyed.
She then turns to her brothers and said:
"Brothers, let go home." She grabs an arm from her both her brothers and pulled them away to leave without saying any more to the seventh prince.
The seventh prince just stood there looking at the back of Ba Yue and her brothers as they walk farther and farther away from him. He then looks down at the handkerchief that's wrapped around his left hand. The smile on his face is gone, he only has an expressionless face left now. It's hard to tell what he's thinking right now.
On their way home, The brothers asked Ba Yue some questions regarding what had happened earlier and who's that man she's talking to. Ba Jing then asked her:
"Ah Jing, never believe rumors! Remember those bad rumors about little Yue? I never pay any attention to it because I don't think it's true at all. Our little Yue is beautiful and kind! She's not useless or a waste, she just never tries to train before that's all. And I also think she is beautiful the way she is," said Ba Zi in a serious tone while looking at both Ba Jing and Ba Yue.
"You are absolutely correct, older brother! Our little Yue is the best!"
Ba Jing then turns to face Ba Yue and continue to say it in a soft kind voice:
"Little Yue, no matter what anyone said, you are our beloved younger sister! You are kind, sweet, and beautiful. You will always have us behind you."
"Thank you so much, brothers! I won't let those rumors bother me, and I'll show them that they are wrong in the future." She's so touched by her brothers' words, that's why she going to start working even harder. That way, her loved ones won't have to keep worrying about her.
Finally, they have reached home after a long walk since they didn't go out by horse carriage. Soon they arrived at the main front door of the Ba residence, the guard that stands guard greets them. Ba Yue wants to go back to her room so she said:
"I feel a little tired from the earlier incident, so I want to go back to my room now."
"Go ahead, we still have to stop by father's studies to talk to him too. Go rest up, we'll call you later when it's dinner time. And here's the pastries that we have brought for you from Ding Xiang Tea House." Ba Zhi hands over the pastries to Ba Yue. He then left with Ba Jing to go to their father's study room to report to him about today's incident.
After arriving back to her room, Ba Yue called Xi Xi over to tell her not come into her room her until dinner time since she has to rest. As soon as Xi Xi left the room, Ba Yue immediately close her bedroom door. She then took out the herbs that she had brought earlier and started making her weight loss medicine that she really needs right now.
After 4 hours, the medicine is finally completed! Instead of making the medicine in liquid form, she actually refined it into a pill form. That way it's easy to take and easy to hide, so no one can see or smell it. The dosage and time that is needed to take this medicine vary according to the person's weight and height.
According to her own weight and height, she needs to take this weight loss medicine every day for a month to lose most of these fats in her body. The way this medicine work is by detox and eliminating fats! After taking the medicine, the fats in the body will start to melt and will leave the body slowly. There's also a bonus to this medicine recipe, and that is skin purification! Not only can it help with weight loss, but it can also detox the body to give this body the perfect skin!
After eating dinner with the family, Ba Yue went back to her room and asked Xi Xi to heat up the water for her, so she can take a bath. She then took 1 weight loss pill that she refined earlier and soak into the hot water in the bathtub. Time is ticking and Ba Yue is waiting to see the result of her pill since it's the first time for her to use it.
About an hour later, she noticed the bath water is turning more and more black. She also noticed there are oils flowing on top of the water, these pills are a success! She's sure if she tries to sell these pills, she can make tons of money in the future.
After the bath, she got dress and sat in front of the mirror. There wasn't too much of a difference yet, but she did notice that her skin is less oily. And the pimples that were on her face is starting to shink and the smaller ones even disappeared. The clothes she had on has gotten a little looser on her than before. Ba Yue knows these pills worked and she shouldn't be impatient. It will take some time to see the final result that she is hoping for.
Xi Xi Knocked on the door to Ba Yue's room. She wanted to empty the bath water for her, but when she saw the bath water, she was shocked! She wonders what happened to the bath water? Ever if her young miss didn't bath for a whole month, the water still won't look like this! But before she can ask anything, Ba Yue look at her with a warning from her eyes and then said:
"Don't ask anything and don't say a word to others about this!"
"I understand, Young Miss." Xi Xi didn't say anymore and quickly empties the bath water and left the room.
The next morning, Ba Yue woke up even earlier than before. She started her list of training and noticed her body is feeling much better and lighter than before. She can do twice as much of the exercise than yesterday! That's a great improvement!
As Li Hei Yi, she was a strong martial artist and also an element user. She knows exactly how to train and cultivate. She can definitely train this weak body to become a strong martial artist, but what about an element user? According to the memories of this body, her father and brothers were all element users. Ba Yue has never trained or even try to cultivate before. She wonders if she can cultivate again with this new body.
She sat down on the ground close to a big tree. She remembers that she has to feel the energy around her and then absorb it into her body. If she can absorb the energies then she's an element user, if not then she can only become a martial artist.
Soon, Ba Yue feels the energies surrounding her and slowly absorbing it into her body. She opened her eyes, with shining lights in her eyes. She knew she's also an element user just like the rest of the Ba family members!
"I'm an element user! Nothing can stop me from getting stronger and stand on the top now! I'll become stronger than anyone else and show those people that have looked down on me before that they were wrong about me."
Time flew by very quickly, it's already been two weeks since Ba Yue starts training herself in the Black Forest. You can definitely tell a difference with the way she looks now. She has lost lots of weight! Her face is all clear up, and it is a lot slimmer! Her eyes look bigger, the nose is taller and even though she still has some baby fat on her cheeks, but you can tell she's a real beauty already!
