Chapter 287 - Feelings and Intuition

"Master!"

When Qin Yu and Su Ci Yi came inside the hotel, Qin Tao was already waiting in the lobby. The little child saw his master and immediately jump off on her. Directly hugging her neck and totally sliding into her soft embrace.

"Ah Tao what is it? Why did you run away?"

Su Ci Yi asked. Mai had told her about the details and what was the trigger of it was because Qin Tao had fled from Mai. She wasn't angry at Mai at all. The girl was doing her job at best. She had already been into panic and she couldn't make her depressed anymore.

What is good in this situation was that the child was alive and kicking. At least Qin Tao knows what to do in the most dangerous situation.

"I don't know. I don't know why I ran away at that time. I don't know. I don't really know Master... Please don't ask me anymore."

Su Ci Yi heard his muffled tone as he clutched to her neck tightly.

"Alright. I will not ask anymore. We will go home now. Your dad is here with me. Do you want to say something to him?"

Qin Tao looked at his father from the sideline for a few seconds. But then again, he turned around and clutched his master's neck tightly. He liked the comfort of his master rather than his dad.

Qin Yu on the sideline didn't felt dejected. It's almost as if this pair had become like a mother and child.

Su Ci Yi didn't know but when Lan Bao found a trace of her spirit energy in the air, from his usual leisure posture he immediately changed his clothes. Baronette, who was busy serving her Lord's menu for dinner also noticed Lan Bao's sudden movement.

" May I asked where will be the lord is going?"

Lan Bao took a swift in changing his clothes then turn to the doorway.

" I will be out. I'm meeting an old friend."

Old friend?

Baronette was stunned for a while. Who was this? An old friend yet she didn't know about it? He has only woken up for a few days, and he has already a friend?

With her thoughts all over, she stopped preparing dinner and followed the man. If this old friend of his were genuine, then she might also know him.

Qin Tao felt a foreboding sense and his whole body shivered as he hugged Su Ci Yi. He then dived into her bossom and spoke in a muffled tone.

"Master let us go faster. I don't want to be in this place. Can we fly up above?"

Su Ci Yi felt that the child was really scared. This gave her an ugly feeling about the man that he had met.

Anyway, if flying would elevate his mood, then she would not hesitate to abide in his request.

Su Ci Yi took permission from his father first before going out and slid into the thick ceiling of the clouds with her sword.

"Where is he?" 

Baronette murmur as he followed the man in the hotel lobby. However, when he was turning around the corner, he stopped instantly and was talking to himself. Then, Lan Bao, with a disappointed looked turn towards the cafeteria portion and ordered a diner in a set of meal?!

The man seemed not to remember that she was just making dinner earlier, and he is eating here? 

With a dissatisfied looked Baronette went back and threw all the ingredients she had brought unto the trash bin. No sense in making those. Just why did she think of making it? Her sole purpose is to be his right-hand man.

He was his sole sword. 

His weapon when he attains his long lost battle in heaven.

"Su Ming?! Where had been you these nights? You didn't go home for these past three days? You didn't go over time from the company so where were you those nights?"

Su Gi howled as soon as Su Ming come back that morning. Su Ming's face is haggard and one could think that she didn't much have that sleep at all.

"I'm tired, Mom. I'll answer your question when I woke up."

Su Ming lazily crawled the staircase and went to her room. As soon as she reached the bed, she slump up her body into it. She was too tired. Too tired of searching for Su Ci Yi's whereabouts. But then again, no trace of her at all.

Did she go abroad?

She was about to fall asleep when her mother banged her door and angrily strode inside. In her hand was a tray of a full set of breakfast. Even though she was angry, she did let it go and made Su Ming her breakfast.

With her tired expression, Su Gi knows that this child hadn't had eaten her dinner.

What is she doing these entire nights that she was this so haggard?

"Eat it, or I will personally spoon feed you."

Su Gi threaten. Even if she's sleepy, she should eat it.

Sleeping with an empty stomach is always not good.

Su Gi will only feel at ease if she had eaten full.

Su Ming has no choice.

When she had finished her meal, it was only then that Su Gi left her alone. 

Now with a full stomach, Su Ming leaned on the handle of the bed. Looking over to the fluttering curtain in the window. The morning glow of the sunlight cast inside the room making it even more warm and cozy.

After staying for a few minutes in that position, Su Ming's eyelids fluttered heavily. In no time, she would be swallowed by the slumber in her dreams.

In her semi-half consciousness, she heard a movement by the window. A person landed on the window seal and went into her room. Her footsteps were agile and nimble like a cat. Afraid that it would wake her up. Also, there was a child clinging to the back of the intruder.

"Master she's sleeping." Su Ming heard the child spoke.

" I've verified that she's doing well. We should leave now."

Wait!

Who was it?

That voice!

Just wait!

Su Ming extended her hands, and she was rendered fully awake by now. However, the worst thing is, she realized that she had already slept for almost an hour?!

Was that all just a dream?!
