Chapter 312 - Bad Mood

Zhao Li Xin just climb down the stairs when he reaches the second floor a soft voice called him

"Lord Long Ming"

He halted his pace than turn around a beautiful woman cupped his feel and bow at him elegantly "I'm the second Princess of Liu Yan kingdom Qian Mu Ting, is a pleasure to meet you" her feel elated when she meets with her idol man, Zhao Li Xin even more handsome then the rumor said.

"Hm.." he nods his head then turn his back to leave, Qian Mu Ting can let him leave just like that, she had paid a lot of people to inform her when Zhao Li Xin leave his Manor alone, she practically running when her maid told her Zhao Li Xin went to Hong Wei restaurant.

"Milord please wait" she unconsciously shouted, she even surprised how brazen she is but she can't let this change wasted away "I always hear about your story, would you mind accompanying me for some tea" she bashfully said, it's easy to see she's not used to approaching man first but for him, she will brace herself.

Zhao Li Xin face remain unperturbed he sees the yearning in Qian Mu Ting eyes and his heart turn cold "My fiancée waiting for me at home, so I must decline your offer"

Qian Mu Ting face become stiffed than her smiles become awkward "Oh, I met with Miss Luo I visit your manor but I didn't saw you so I 'm chatting with Miss Luo instead" she said with gentle smile but when other people heard it sound like Lory didn't let Qian Mu Ting met with Zhao Li Xin even though the Princess already spare her time to visit him.

Its a weird concept in this world where the woman who is jealous was seeing as a shrewd woman even though the man they jealous of is there fiancée or husband, woman expected to be demure and obedient to there husband such a culture who only gives benefit to male.

"I know, you came to my manor, you asked yourself you wanted to meet my fiance so I don't think necessary for me to meet you, you should give us prior notice second Princess, not like other people Hei Shen people don't have much leisure times" Zhao Li Xin make sarcastic remarks for Qian Mu ting have to much leisure time and bothering him.

People also dumbfounded when they hear the word Hei Shen, they wonder is that handsome man is from Hei Shen Sect, is that why the Second princess interested with him even though that man already has a fiancée. Qian Mu Ting's face turns from red to white he never thought he could be so heartless, even the rumor about his temperament is worst then the rumor said.

"I'm sorry, I don't mean to offend you" she looks down pitifully, it make other people feel sorry for her even her maids feel sad for their Princess, they look at Zhao Li Xin with blaming eyes but then Mong ki and Mong Yi stare at back at them with warning gaze and the maids suddenly startled and they do not dare to lift their heads again.

This acted make Zhao Li Xin feel nauseous how many women use this 'pitiful card' trick to him, why these women thought he would become soft to them just because of little tears, what a ridiculous thought.

" Excuse me," Zhao Li Xin ignore her he doesn't even bother to give her comforting words, he turns around and leaves, his suppressing aura make people turn quiet and open the path for him no one dares to glance at him no matter how handsome he is. they all feel the winter come early to their Kingdom.

Qian Mu Ting froze on the spot, her body feels numb she didn't realize she clenched her fist so tight until her nail pierce to her skin and slightly bleed, her maids becomes worried she whispers at Qian Mu Ting ears "You're highness, are you okay" she scared Qian Mu ting would cry what would happen if commoner see their princess crying after she got rejected, her reputation would be ruined.

Qian Mu ting startled, she realized people secretly staring at her, she can't let herself look disgraceful and become jokes for other people, she forced herself to smile "Is our room ready? I'm already starving" she said with a calm smile.

The maid feel relief "Yes, the room is ready, please this way her highness" the maids lead her to the private room.

The spectator disappointed because they didn't catch the princess in sorry state, who knew she can compose herself so quickly and acted as if nothing happened no wonder they said the second princess is the brightest compare to other princess turns out is not just a rumor, even in that embarrassing situation she can remain calm and poise.

Inside the carriage, Zhao Li Xin mood turn to the lowest, this whole day he has to meet two annoying people how can he is not in a bad mood, he can't wait to go home and hold her princess. Zhao Li Xin body become more relaxed just thinking about her waiting at home.

"Milord, General Yuan sent this" Mong Ki show him a few thick books "that is the report about all business affiliated with Lao Min Na also the business who is owned by her, they're also report about nobles and merchant who work for Lao Min Na, we can use our owned resource to investigate the detail, but this books make our jobs easier"

Zhao Li Xin received the books he examined the content than he turns a few pages his face becomes serious, Zhao Li Xin maybe a lazy bum but that because he is a genius who can absorb information very quickly, that's why he got bored easily and look apathetic most of the times. The journey to the manor only need ten minutes with carriage in a short time they arrived at the front door, Zhao Li Xin return the book to Mong Ki.

"Give it to Wu San Bo and Bei Li Yan, I want every shop that works with Lao Min Na disappeared tell Bei Li Yan to take care, everyone who works with Lao Min Na" Zhao Li Xin rest lean his back lazily "Cut all the tentacles before we aimed the head," he said again with cold voice.

"Yes, Milord!" Mong Ki cupped his fist firmly, he immediately got off from the carriage and disappeared.

The front gate slowly opens by the gatekeeper and his carried enter the gate before the gate closes again. his carriage stop in the second gate, Mong Yi help him to lift the curtain than Zhao Li Xin got off from the carriage, the housekeeper and servant bow their waist to greeted there Lord.

"Where is she?" he asked.

Everyone knew the 'she' he meant is always Luo Ri Yi even when Ming Yue Yin and Yang Xi Yin stay in the manor, Zhao Li Xin never asked about them even the slightest he might even forget they live here if only they didn't bother his princess as much.

"Miss Luo is her courtyard," said the housekeeper.

"Alone?" Zhao Li Xin furrows his eyebrows in annoyance.

"She is, Miss Yang is with master Li and Empress Ming is accompanied General Yuan and his sister" the housekeeper is used by his possessive behavior toward Miss Luo, who said Miss Luo is the one who seduced there Lord everyone in Hei Shen knew is the other way around.

His face suddenly lit up like sunrise although it's not conspicuous for other people but for the housekeeper, this sight is hurting his eyes, Zhao Li Xin smiles faintly "Good, don't let them bother her for today don't bother me either even if someone dead!" he remind his housekeeper sternly, he misses her very much its been a while since there last kisses, isn't it?

"Yes, Milord" the housekeeper calmly answers his Lord, he blinks his eyes a few times to adjust his sight.

'So bright'
