Zhao Li Xin and Lory are wearing their disguised when they walk outside, to coaxed his Princess the Lord immediately take her to the tea house and to make sure she doesn't remember her anger anymore along the way Zhao Li Xin told her about the tea house menu, luckily he heard Bei Li Yan yapping endlessly about it with Wu San Bo.

Bei Li Yan talk about how to present the food and how the tea house should look like and Wu san bo talk about how to drain the customer money without their notice, the two evil-doers didn't bother to handle Sacred Mountain peak matter for all they know, the plan is airtight and their doom is certain, the only question would be 'When'

​​

Lory who already fills her head with the amount of delicious sweet can't remember why she's angry before, she follows Zhao Li Xin excitedly. The tea house does much smaller than Xi ling tea house that she co-owner with Yang Xi Yin, she wonder what happened to that place but from the bank report that they report monthly to her income is increasing so Yang Xi yin must do a great job managing that place.

The small tea house located near the small lake, it was a serene and quiet place just have fifty tables so many people cannot enter even though they have money, its something never happens before so many aristocrat ladies leaving the place with a scowl. But Wu San Bo didn't care he knew how human behavior is, the more they can't get the more they wanted it.

In the front door, people gather in line but most of them are servants, and maid who's waiting for their master. Zhao Li Xin led Lory to the back of the building, Yu Ji who was served Lory previously at Yu Yun already has to wait in front of the small door, her face beamed like a light bulb when she sees Lory but then she flinches when she realizes it was her lord in disguised. The little girl immediately opens the door and bow ninety-degree towards Zhao Li Xin, she doesn't dare stare at her Lord longer than she needs because she had heard about the dire consequence for doing so.

"Yu Ji, right?" Lory suddenly talks with her.

Yu Ji bow deeper while nodding like woodpecker bird "Ye…yes, young madam"

"Are you waiting for us?" Lory casually throws small pleasantries out of habit that she could never get rid of.

Yu Ji feel happy and proud because the young madam of Hei Shen remembers her name, she was flustered as she repeatedly nodding "Yes, my name is Yu Ji, uhm…yes, I'm waiting for the Lord and Young madam here, ple…please enter" she make a polite gesture with her hand although her words jumble together.

This is not the first she saw someone acted nervously in front of her when she was in Harland people would get flustered when they heard her last name, Lory smiles amicably "Well, thank you, Yu Ji"

"Yes, young madam, thank you, young madam, enjoy your time young madam!" Yu Ji faces brimming with happiness while she unconsciously bows repeatedly.

Zhao Li Xin took her hand as they enter from the back door, Zhao Li Xin already used with how his people idolize his princess, he also admired his Princess very much so Yu Ji reaction is taken as 'expected' for him.

"Where do you take me, the building is over there," Lory said confusedly.

Zhao Li Xin took him across the small path behind the main building, they walk across the bamboo tree and flower bush, no one is around they're only accompanied with the sound of birds chirping, Lory doesn't understand what the need to make a separated building "Do you always build a private room for yourself?" Lory realizes all his business places have a private place that only he could use it.

"Yes," he answers shortly.

"Why?" Lory thought is a waste of space since Zhao Li Xin is not a diligent Lord who watches his business daily, she knew because other than cultivated he stick with her like gum, the farthest he goes is to the study room.

"I don't like other people," he says indifferently.

'Only you who treat other people like a plague'

They climb a few stairs and arrived at the small building who is detached from the main building, it's a cute little place surrounded with pink peony and chrysanthemum flower, the small building only has one room that mixed lounge and dining room together and it is designed as an open room with small zen garden and pond filled with giant Koi fish at the side.

The landscape is arranged beautifully, the design is delicate and charming obviously is not Zhao Li Xin tasted so lory could guess the design is meant for her. Once again she was overwhelmed how much he pampered her. if not she already been raised strictly by her father Lory convince she would become arrogant and spoil a lady.

"You made it for me don't you?" her eyes sparkle as she looks at him with disbelief and appreciation gaze, this stupid Lord always knew how to touched her heart.

"You like it?" he casually asked as if is not a big deal.

Lory smiles brightly "Of course I like it, stupid...I like it very much" Lory can't thankful enough for everything he has done for her since the moment they met.

She thought the god try to compensate for the loss of her family by giving her this amazing man, because of him she less lonely and happier since she met him.

Her smile is enough compensation for him "Let's see if the food as good as they said" Zhao Li Xin holds Lory's hand while entering the room.

When the door is open Lory eyes grew to widen not only because this place is decorated gorgeously but also the room is so….feminine. white lampion with flower painting is hanging on the ceiling, more peony flowers in the small pot is a place on the corner, bird and flower painting on the wall, soft peach and white lacey curtains and delicate dining utensil on the table, the only thing out of the place is…Zhao Li Xin.

But the Lord doesn't know or perhaps doesn't care, he takes a seat on the chair while the lacey curtain blows gently behind him. The only thing salvage the situation is his heavenly face, but the dark robes make him like a grim reaper.

After Lory takes a seat, the servant burst out of the door they all came with a tray filled with steaming bamboo box and bowl of soup, another maidservant brew purple tea for Lory on the side table, it's happening for only two minutes before everyone dispersed in hasted because Zhao Li Xin hated crowd.

The dessert does look adorable, the 'bun' shapes mimicking zodiac animal with colorful tones and different filling, there's a rabbit, chicken, pig and such, and the dumpling is on the shape of colorful flower, there also Osmanthus jelly with flower petal inside it, Lory eyes brimmed with joy everything looks tasty and cute she almost feel bad to eat it…..well, almost.

Zhao Li Xin doesn't like sweet so he contents just watching her, the only thing that specially made for him is a wine made from chrysanthemum flower but because Zhao Li Xin like strong tasted they add something more to make the alcohol stronger, normal cultivator who only in master level would pass out after three cups.

Lory now Zhao Li Xin doesn't like sweet so she doesn't offer him anything, she just smiles and describes how it tasted while much her food in an unladylike manner but she doesn't care and neither is Zhao Li Xin. Girsha can't stand it anymore he burst from her chest and demand offering for himself. Lory twitches her mouth as she reluctantly sharing her food.

In the middle of eating Girsha suddenly lifts his head [Girl, my minion just Located Mo Ning Yuan in this place]

Lory hand pause right in front of her mouth [Who? Is she alone?]

"Lory, what happens?" Zhao Li Xin notices her change expression.

"Mo Ning Yuan is here," Lory answer him quickly.

[That Chen guy is here too!]

"Chen Hu Yin is here?" Lory flabbergasted.

Zhao Li Xin frown then someone suddenly knocks the door "Excuse me, Milord, we have urgent news to report" said someone from behind the door.

"Enter!" Zhao Li Xin allows his entry.

Mong Gi enter the room with a warry face "Milord, someone spot Mo Ning Yuan and Chen Hu Yin in the bamboo garden"

Zhao Li Xin gives firm order "Watch them and see what are they doing!"

"Yes, Milord!" Mong Gi supped his fist and leave the room swiftly.

Lory was pondering for a moment then she lifted her head "Is Chen handed the key for Mo Ning Yuan?" she doesn't hide her worry about it.

"I guess so" he replies calmly, he sees her anxious face so he patted her head gently "Don't worry, gently behind him we face it together!"

Lory weakly nod "The last key is on Nan Yu Qi hand, we have to observed her closer than before"

"Yes, I already add more spy inside the Nan manor, nothing would happen without my notice" he reassured her, he knew Lory is traumatized with the 'first Kind' clearly she worries for the tragedy will be repeated.

"Don't overthink about it, you only tired yourself, Just trust me" He holds her hand on the table tightly as he smiles confidently.

[He's right princess, you need to trust him] Girsha also convinces her.

Lory let out a long heaved "I trust you" she smiled back at him.
