Chapter 305 - A ‘Kept Man’

Lory was sat inside the pavilion and enjoyed the scenery while drinking her 'Sun citrus' tea peacefully until Ming Yue Yin appears and she walk towards her in hasted and her cheeks puff seemingly in anger "That woman is crazy!" she rests both her hand on her waist.

"She crying and waiting in front of Yuan family manor, doesn't she feel shammed her cousin is a Marquis for god sake!" Ming Yue Yin grumbles non stop.

"Whom?" Lory eyebrows furrows, its hard to have peace and quiet when this 'Brat' around.

"Yang Wei Lan, did I told you before?" she sharpen her gaze towards Lory in annoyance.

"No, you didn't…"Loy ignore her, she sips her tea then let out a long sigh "So, what happened….talk slowly and calmly" she emphasized the last words "Drink some tea, oh yes…can you bring me red bean soup with black bean filling mochi" Lory ask the maids who were nearby.

"Yes Miss Luo, is her majesty wanted to try it too?" the maids ask politely.

Ming Yue Yin nods her head "Of course add some dumpling too"

"Yes You're Majesty, excuse me Miss Luo" the maids bow courteously before she left.

"Are you hungry because of you angry or you angry because of you hungry?" Lory tilted her head.

"Is that matter?" she shrugged her shoulder than pour herself a cup of 'Citrus sun' tea "Oh back to that lunatic, the news of Yang Wei Lan persistence with their non-existent engagement is spread to the whole city, her father even drag her from Yuan manor front gate, I think she would be lockdown inside her own courtyard" she gulped the tea in an unladylike manner.

"I think Li Xin also experience the same before, I think the girl name Xiang….Xiang Fei….something" Lory muttered with blan face.

"Well that's not surprised me, why don't you remember you're love rival names?" Ming Yue Yin thought lory is too relaxed but then again what she must afraid of, Zhao Li Xin is too violent the different he treats other people other then Lory is like heaven and dirt, is way too scary.

"How could I remember all Li Xin admirer my brain didn't have enough capacity to do that" Lory roll her eyes tiredly.

"Yeah, that's true…" it's hard to disagree with that.

Not long after that, the maids come with a tray filled with a bowl and three-tier bamboo basket fill with dumpling the steam and the fragrant from the basket make the two ladies droll, then suddenly Yang Xi Yin also come towards them she also make a pout face.

"Why all of you having fun in the brothels without inviting me?" she was dejected when she heard the news especially when she heard they watch the fight between the King palace and sacred Mountain peak, she wants to watch too!

Lory sigh, that's not the words you expected coming from this graceful noble lady, she wonders if she corrupted her is that mean she, not a good influence? What should she do?

"Come on don't be angry sweety, let's take a seat…do you want tea, red bean soup or dumpling?" Lory coaxed her in a soft voice.

"I want all of it" she pouted.

"Get her the bowl and clean plate" Ming Yue Yin order the maids.

She looks so cute when she's angry no wonder Li Mo Zhen head over heels with her, Lory pours the tea for her "Is not like we didn't want to take you but that is not the place for a graceful and innocent young lady like you" Lory said in a gentle voice.

"Yes, Xi Ying that's true…..hey what's that supposed to mean" Ming Yue yin put down the teacup harshly "I'm a graceful, innocent and young lady too!" she rebuked.

"Meh…" Lory shrugged her shoulder with disagree expression.

When the maid come with red bean bowl Yang Xi Ying face beamed with joy "The chef in this Manor is amazing, the chef at my home is pale in comparison"

"It's good if you like it," Lory said in delight.

"What are you talking about, you all look excited" Yang Xi Yin scoop the soup elegantly.

"Oh, is about Yang Wei Lan," said Lory casually "she created a ruckus, I wonder what general Yuan do? It is so hard to be popular" Lory sigh than she slurps her spoon.

"Oh, I hear the news" Yang Xi Ying wipe the corner of her lips with clean cloth "She becomes a joke in the city, I wonder how she would find husband after this, it's hard to get away when your reputation is ruined I also experience the same before I met brother Li" Yang Xi Yin remember her dark past because that Han Yuan, luckily she met Lory and than she met Li Mo Zhen ever since that her life is smooth-sailing.

"Its different…"Ming Yue Yin wave her chopstick carelessly "What happened with you is because people pour dirty water in you, you are very innovent in this matter and you have good personality that's why you can attract someone like Li Mo Zhen"

"That 'brat' is right, what happened to Yang Wei Lan she's asked for it" Lory nods her head "By the way how are you're relationship with that 'hunk' General Yuan Shao" Lory raised her eyebrow playfully.

Yang Xi Yin stunned, she looks at Ming Yue Yin and Lory consecutively "What…what relationship, this is why I don't like to be left out, I miss the good news" she feel dejected.

"No, no news, I have no relationship, Aunty you can't slander me like that" she glare at lory furiously but her red face betray her.

"Am I" Lory chuckles "I see the way you look each other"

"Is General Yuan Shao as handsome as people said?" Yang Xi Yin suddenly becomes excited.

Lory tilted her head "Not as handsome as my man of course, but he is about six feet, muscular body, big muscles, manly face, he looks Galant and serious just like typical soldiers would, I think yeah….he is quite handsome"

"He sounds great!" Yang Xi Ying squeal "How about his attitude, is he loyal, honorable, trustworthy, honest..."

"Hey, knock it off!" Ming Yue Yin hit the table exasperatedly.

"But I need to know, there is a high chance he would become my Kingdom Emperor, I need to be sure he is a good man" she refuted strongly.

"What emperor, he would just become my 'kept man'" she said in annoyance.

"Look at that, you 'kept man' is here," Lory said casually while munching her dumpling and three-man walk toward them at a calm pace.
