Chapter 68 - Under Pressure

Zhao Li Xin did not care with other people gaze at him, he gazes the woman on his laps anxiously "Sorry, did I scared you?" his words turn gentle so different from the cold man from before.

"Surprise, but I'm not scared, I told you many times, I'm not scaredy-cat" Lory reassured him. She knew well how vicious people in this world if Zhao Li Xin not strong enough this 'Jerk' would have killed bot of them without hesitation, Zhao Li Xin only cut his finger it's considered to be mild for him.

While Mong Yi sighs how lucky this 'Jerk' is, if only future madam wasn't here his head already roll somewhere and he still wants to bring his Master with him, is he wants their head roll together?

"Let's have a rest" Zhao Li Xin feels relief she's not scared with him.

Lory saw Yang Xi Ying stood there without make a sound when Han Yuan shamelessly hold her leg asking her to forgiveness and tell her how much he loved her, this Han yuan is so smart he knew his future in the academy has ruined so he crawls back to Yang Xi Ying, at least with her he still can be the Son In-law of the governor of Sun Jan City.

But Yang Xi Ying feels reluctant not because his future has ruined but because how fast he crawls back to her the moment he got in trouble, when he's happy he left him but when he's in trouble he back to her, why he like this, why she never realize it before, that woman is right this man is such 'JERK' but no matter what, she still not sure should she leave him or not...

Suddenly Lory approach Yang Xin Yi "Miss yang I don't mean to get involved but a beautiful, young, smart, and from honorable background like you should have a lot of man begging on your feet to be your lover and husband, you should not waste your time with a man who treats you as safety net…." Lory words are genuine and honest, she really does feel bad for this young miss, she really hopes she did not fall back to this 'JERK' again.

Suddenly Yang Xin Yin's mind become clear, that woman is right she still young and beautiful and with her family background, she can find a good husband who is thousand times better than this 'JERK' so why she must entangle herself with this 'JERK' how stupid she could be.

Han Yuan wants to refute and kick Lory away, but the strong glare from Zhao Li Xin and Mong Yi scared the hell out of him, he not even dare to breathe too loud.

Yang Xin Yi's face turns brighter as if the dark cloud has left him "Thank You for your kind word, miss…."

"I'm Luo Ri Yi" Lory bow at her slightly, Lory gentle demeanor make her instantly like her.

"I'm Yang Xin Yi, if you have time to visit Sun Jan city please come to my place, I want to repay your kind words"

"You don't have to, but if I visit Sun Jan city I definitely find you" Lory nod her head with certain.

Yang Xin Yi like this straightforward woman in front of her, she always surrounded by man and woman who have an ulterior motive with her, so meeting with someone like Luo Ri Yi is like a breath of fresh air for her "Sure, I'll be waiting"

Both of the girls smiles happily, a minute later a few women and soldiers arrived all of them terrified when they saw the big hole in the inn "Young Miss, are you okay!!" a woman with maid uniform rush to Yang Xin Yi with an anxious face.

"I'm fine" Yang Xin Yi smiles stunned the young maid, her young miss is kind and gentle woman since she was a kid but after she met that Han Yuan she gradually change, she dresses differently, wear make up heavily and she get irritated easily but now the woman in front of her remains her how her young miss used to be.

"Give the money to the inn owner, that 'JERK' has ruined that poor man livelihood, part of it is my fault too, give enough money for compensation to the owner" Yang Xin Yi demeanor as noble ladies have returned, Lory was impressed by her strong and dignified behavior.

The maids also amazed by her young miss, especially when she point who the 'JERK' is when she saw Han yuan pathetic state the maids feel relief, at last, her Young Miss eyes are opened.

"I have to leave now, because that 'JERK' I left my home without notice my Father" Yang Xin Yi feel guilty, his Father has warned her several times about Han Yuan but she never listened, her behavior must have broken her Father heart again "I need to apologize to my Father and accept whatever punishment he gave me" Ying Xuan Xie sighs deeply.

"As long you sincere, your Father would forgive you" Lory comfort her.

Lory kind smiles soothe her heart tremendously, no wonder people said a good friend is more precious than a gem, she lost a lover but gained a good friend, it's not a bad trade.

"Xin Yi, Listen to me I….." Han Yuan still reluctant to let go of his last strain of hope.

"I gave you so much chance before but you never appreciated it, from now on there's nothing between anymore," Yang Xin Yi said firmly, she smiles kindly at Lory before she left Han yuan lifeless on the floor.

Lory watch Yang Xin Yi and her entourage leave the premises, Girsha watch her from a brach tree not far from her his little girl have her way with her words since she was a little, no matter how hard and cold people heart could be her words always find the way to slip through it just like she touch that man cold heart...just like she touches his.

When Zhao Li Xin and Lory want to go to their rooms a middle-aged man blocked his path, Zhao Li Xin face become dark again if not because Lory here with him, he would already kick this man aside, Mong Yi also bewildered who is this crazy man is he want to commit suicide, why not just jump from the cliff, you know how hard to maintain his Lord good moods.

"Lord Long Ming, I'm Hua Hong from Purple Bird sect, it's my honored to meet you Milord" the middle-aged man face reminds Lory with fat 'tanuki' cartoon she used to watch, the fat tanuki is sneaky and greedy creature he has small eyes, chubby hands, and big belly but what she hates the most is the creepy smiles he got, and the middle-age man resembles that cartoon very much, Lory unconsciously show disliked on her face.

"What you want" Zhao Li Xin becomes more annoyed after he notices Lory disliked this middle-aged man.

Hua Hong creepy smiles annoyed Lory very much 'Go away, you creepy Tanuki!!'

"Lord Long Ming may I invite you for a dinner, my daughter here has been admires you for a long time" when he said that, a woman with voluptuous figure and seductive smiles approach them, she seductively smiles at Zhao Li Xin, most man inside the room was mesmerized by the sexy lady.

"I don't have time" he walk pass Hong Yi while holding Lory hand, who knows what get inside that middle-aged man head, he daring to grab Zhao Li Xin sleeves, for someone who likes to keep his distance with other human beings Hong Yi action berated him te most, he swings his hands from Hong Yi then he hits that stupid man right on his chest, Hong Yi was pushed so hard until he pierces through the wall, the sexy lady screams loudly when her 'chubby' Father fly through the wall, she rushes to her Father who is lying down on the ground unconsciously.

Another wall was destroyed, the innkeeper can't say anything, fortunately, Yang Xin Yi give him enough money to fix his inn but now another wall appears, when the innkeeper lament to himself a man with a black uniform like Mong Yi approach him giving him a heavy pouch

"For your compensation, from our Lord" then the black uniform man disappeared without saying anything more.

The innkeeper check the pouch on his hand, his eyes bulged so wide his eyeball almost fall from his socket, the money he has given is ten times more than Yang Xin Yin gave him, with this money he can move to the capital and build a luxurious inn, if it's like this he doesn't mind even Zhao Li Xin destroy the wholes inn.

"Who else wants to invite me?" Zhao Li Xin sternly questions the peoples around him.

"No Milord, enjoyed your rest" all of them who previously have ulterior motive throw their plan to the window, this Long Ming is exactly like his rumor, he is as violent and cruel as the rumor said who dare take advantages of him, he not even blink in front of that beautiful lady.

Zhao Li Xin face unperturbed, he doesn't look proud or conceited when everyone yield in front of him, his black eyes remains cold and empty like nothing reflect inside that beautiful eyes, people unconsciously look down they feel their body become numbs just from his gazes, they wonder if Long Ming is human or not.

"Come on!" Lory pulls his hand gently.

Her soft voice calm him down and his severity demeanor gradually subside, he smiles faintly at Lory "Hm" he nod slightly, both of them went upstairs, only after Zhao Li Xin figures disappear behind the door people exhales deeply, some even slump on their chair because their legs can't withstand their body anymore, other men still can't stop himself from shivering.

Mong Yi watches them with scowl 'A bunch of sissies just a minute under milord pressure they become like that, try to serve him for a decade and tell me how it feels.....'
