"oh oh your highness thinks so, I also agree with what you said, she felt compelled to defend her sect when the men spoke ill of the flame sect but she became brutal at the mention of her twin sister, she seems very protective of her sister," Changlin said as a smile etched at the corner of his lips.

"although I did not expect the young mistress of the flame sect to value her sister in such way, I must say that she is quite loyal to her sister to have reacted that way not minding if others would find out that she is the young mistress of the flame sect," Ruansong said. ​​

He raised one of his legs on the seat and unfolded the fan to fan himself, "you should have seen her look and the change in her composure when she became angry, she is just my type," Changlin said smiling, after his experience with her, he became more curious about the young mistress of the flame sect, he had never seen a girl like her and there was just something unique about her that he couldn't point out,

The image of her falling flashed back in his head...

Her panicking look as she dropped from the rope… her eyes that seemed to have been praying for a saviour… those round and slightly large eyes widening as she fell panicking …her long eyelashes blinking slowly as she fell and her plumps lips tightly pursed together.

She had already shut her eyes as she lost the hope of someone catching her when she opened her eyes in his arms….

He smiled again at her reaction, she fixed her eyes on his face and blinked slowly, her mouth was slightly opened as though she was surprised that someone had actually caught her, as he brought her to the ground she smiled.

He was still in a daze when he heard a knock on the table, he quickly snapped out of it and looked up to see Ruansong staring at him.

"tchctchtchtch, she must have left quite an impression on you seeing how you are in a daze just thinking of her," Ruansong said, he waved the man across her face slowly as the breeze from the fan swept across his face.

"who said I was thinking of her, I was thinking of something else not her besides I just met her once do you think it is that easy to win my heart" Changlin snapped

"you said it yourself, I never said you had her in your heart, don't worry there is nothing bad about liking her, from what you told me she seems very likeable, although..."

"Although what?"

"I don't think you will live up to a week if you do end up with her"

"Why do you say so?"

Ruansong smiled and said "isn't it obvious, someone as annoying as you would definitely anger her to death and I think you already know the outcome of her anger" he sighed and continued, "you might end up being a roasted dinner".

Changlin eyes widened, he rolled his eyeball to the side of his eyes as he imagined the scene in his head...

Changlin is kneeling in front of Huo Ying crying with his palms clasped together,

"dear please forgive me, I will never annoy you again, please I will be a good boy from now on" Changlin pleaded with tears trickling down his cheek", Huo Ying scoffed and laughed hysterically.

"I don't think I am that merciful, for those who offend me they have no second chance," She said as she released flames from her hand, his eyes widened as the reddish-orange colour of the flame reflected in his eyes, he screamed in pain as the hot flames burning every inch of his body...

Oooooooooh...

He shook his head as he dusted away the horrifying thought in his head, "I definitely don't think that would be a pleasant scene" He said, seeing his reaction Ruansong smiled at the corner of his mouth and kept on staring at him.

"Master, Master!!!" A soft voice called from afar, she walked into the villa and saw that he was not in his room, she called his name continuously in frustration, the sound of her footstep revealing her frustration as she came closer to where the guys are seated.

"I think she is here, Changlin you had better brace yourself when she comes, I will leave the both of you to catch up with each other" Ruansong said as he prepared for the moment when she would enter the garden.

Wait…what is he talking about

"you are not thinking of leaving me here with it…..or should I say her, right?" Changlin said with his voice slightly raised, his face giving off an alarmed expression, he clasped his hands together and his expression changed into a desperate look.

"brother, I admit that I have not been very good to you lately, at the end of our argument I always end up getting beaten and you are the only one she listens to please save me," Changlin said with his faced squeezed.

They heard the footstep coming closer, then they both looked at the entrance of the garden, a young girl with a height of five feet and two inches walked Into the garden aggressively, her eyes widened with happiness when she saw Ruansong sitting in the garden with a person whose face was turned to the other side.

"Sorry it is too late; you have always been putting up with her how come you are so scared of her now," Ruansong said

"The last time we argued, she suddenly pounced on me and beat me up before I even had the chance to react, she moved with a lightning speed that I couldn't even react until she stopped," Changlin said with an expression that was filled with despair.

"But Xiaodi has never beaten you up before and I have never seen her fighting before," Ruansong said as he watched the girl coming closer to them.

"I don't know why she suddenly changed before we only argued without taking any action, I also thought that since she has the appearance of a girl it would be inappropriate to hit her but that day she just changed suddenly that was why I couldn't see you off the last time you briefly visited the capital, before she started beating me she said something like ' I am hundred now so I can use my powers"

"oooh that was what happened, tchctchtchtch you messed with her on a wrong day," Ruansong said as he smiled at Changlin misfortune, the girl finally approached them with a cheerful face.

"Xiaodi you are back," Ruansong said smiling at the Xiaodi, she had a small figure, she smiled at him with a very cute smile, no one would have guessed that she was a spirit beast and a hundred-year-old spirit beast at that, she looked really young like a thirteen years old girl.

"brother, I was looking for you just now, I thought you had gone somewhere without me" she turned to face the person sitting opposite him with his face turned away from her.

"brother who is this person he seems to be hiding from me"

"Changlin stops hiding your face she is here already," Ruansong said.

Changlin bit his lips in regret, he turned to face the small figure who had been standing in front of them and staring at his face, "Xiaodi you are here" he said and smiled awkwardly,

"It is you, are you here to disturb my brother again," She said, her expression changed quickly from a cheerful look to an angry look, she seemed like she was ready to fight him at any time.

Changlin who was now fed up with her violent behaviour every time she saw him with Ruansong looked boldly into her eyes and said: " why do you keep bring possessive of him, he is not even your brother I am the one who has the right to call him brother not you, so asking me such questions".

Xiaodi face immediately burned with anger upon hearing what Changlin had said, she was about to hit him when she heard a voice in her head telling her not to, she looked at Ruansong with a questioning look, he looked at her and gave her a nod telling her not to hit him.

"brother, he keeps saying that you are not my brother" Xiaodi complained

"Changlin even though Xiaodi is a spirit beast, she is a sister to me so stop telling her that I am not her brother, I asked her to call me that," Ruansong said, Xiaodi took her seat close to Ruansong as she was satisfied with what he had said, "even so why does she keep telling me not to come close to you I am also your brother" Changlin complained

Ruansong shook his head slightly, he wondered why he had to solve such a childish quarrel between the both of them, he sighed and turned to face Xiaodi who was sitting close to him and said: "Xiaodi, Changlin is also my brother so stop telling him to not come close to me".

"But before master died, she told me not to let said that I should not let anyone with evil intention come close to you," Xiaodi said with her lips pouted, They both laughed at her statement, she looked at the both of them in confusion, she didn't understand why they were laughing at what she just said.

"what are you talking about, when did I ever have evil intentions towards Ruansong," Changlin said as he tried hard to stop himself from laughing.

"I saw you plotting on how to steal his jade flute that day...." Xiaodi said as she watched both of them trying to control their laughter.

"are you talking about something that happened ten years ago, aaahh you are really good at bearing grudges," Changlin said, they finally managed to stop themselves from laughing.

"I…. I ..." Xiaodi stuttered, she didn't like her reaction to her statement and now she didn't know what to say.

"Xiaodi, back then Changlin was just being naughty, he is not a bad person," Ruansong said to soothe her and stop her from flipping out.

"B... but I caught him trying to steal your jade flute" Xiaodi argued, "yes back then he was a bad person but now he is a good person," Ruansong said to reassure her.

Changlin turned to face Xiaodi and folded his thumb and pinky fingers leaving the remaining three and said: "I promise never to steal the jade flute again and I will never bear evil Intention towards your brother again, are you satisfied now?" Changlin said.

She nodded her head positively, Ruansong smiled seeing how cute she was at that moment, he stroked her hair and said "Xiaodi if anyone harbours evil intention towards me, I will tell you then you can protect me from them".

"okay you can count on me," Xiaodi said smiling, she was satisfied with the outcome of their conversation.

"It is already late, I want to rest tonight, the both of you should do whatever you want," Ruansong said, he folded his fan and stood up, the both of them watched him as he left the garden and entered into a large room but they couldn't see the interior from where they sat.
