The Princess And The Lord

In the end Yang Xi Ying accepts Xiling after Lory painstaking persuasion but Yang Xi Ying still insists she will divide the income of the shop fifty-fifty with Lory, Lory is too tired to persuaded her farther so she agrees with her.

Yang Xi Ying also make a promised for the old owner that she would not change anything in the tea shop although the old owner didn't ask her but he felt touch by her sincerity.

​​

At night the moon hide behind the grey cloud and everything become darker than it used to, the old man stands like a statue in front of the plum tree his reluctant to leaved their still a shadow of his lover linger on that tree, he remembers the quiet woman with beautiful voice play Gu Qin in front of that tree, he was mesmerized by her no matter how hard he tries he could never forget her, if she asked him to left everything to be with her he won't hesitate to follow her but she never asked him.

How could she? She told him once how much she hated her father for leaving her mother to be with other women, no one knew how much pained and heartache she felt to be abandoned by her owned parent so how could she become that kind of woman and how could she asked him to become someone she hated the most.

In the end, he understands how much she loved him and how big her sacrifice for him, his lover had died a long time ago from the sickness that she hides from him when he found her she has died under this tree and now this tree would also die.

The old man touch the tree trunk "I'm sorry….." he whispers while closing his eyes then suddenly he smelled familiar scented, the wind blows the grey cloud and the moonshine brightly and when he opened his eyes bulged as if it would fall from it sockets his mouth slightly open in awed, the tree who supposed to be dead suddenly bloom with pink flower, the whole tree is cover with pink flower.

The wind blows the flower petals and it fell on the old man's palms only than he sure he's not dreaming, tears fall on his face like broken dam all the feeling he held for decades burst out, without anyone around the old man weep like a little kid.

Unbeknown by him two figures watch from the roof, the woman drooping on his chest with paled looks while the man embraces her from behind his face is mixed between angry and worry.

"Why you doing that?" he complained at her.

"Isn't it sad when the only things left from you're loved one is only memory?" she said while snuggled inside his warm embrace.

"How is you're body, are you hurt anywhere?" he didn't care about other people only her matter for him and yet she keep push herself for other people wellbeing, he wanted to reprimand her but he didn't have a heart when he see her helpless smile.

"I'm fine, I don't use too much power, I just give that tree a chance to bloom for one last time before it completely died" Lory watch the pink tree who is shined by the moon dimmed light and the old man who stood their while covering his face with both of his hand his back hunched and his shoulder tremble profusely, maybe this is the first time after a long years he finally let go his feeling.

"Tomorrow the tree will die, this is their last goodbye…" Lory said in a low voice.

Zhao Li Xin patted her head softly "At least he has a chance to say goodbye….thanks to you"

Somewhere far away from Sun Jan city a woman sits on the couch under the parasol with two maids serves her the garden is wide and tranquil with snow mountain as the background, the woman hit the table angrily make the two maids jolt but their expression quickly back to normal.

"How dare he do this to my disciple!" he hit the table until the table cracked.

The woman in front of her sips her wine leisurely her exquisite face unperturbed rather than scared she seems enjoyed that woman outburst.

"Miss Lao, thank you for you're information but for what reason you tell me this?" the woman squinted her eyes, although she already reach forty but her face still looks fresh and her skin glowing like a young woman its no surprised everyone might though she only in early thirty, this woman is Lu Yao, Tang Mei Yi Master.

On the other side of the table the young woman with purple hanfu smile calmly she put down the teacup on the table "Because we both want the same thing" then she leaned her back on the chair

"I want Hei Shen to support me, but that can only happen if Miss tang marry with Lord Zhao"

Lu Yao eyebrows furrow "That's an easy task…." She puffed up her chest.

"If that so easy so why Lord Zhao retracts his resources from Fu Hua he even announces his sect will have nothing to do with Tang Mei Yi and Fu Hua in the future" Lao Min Na stifles, she doesn't know where's Lu Yao find the confidence.

Lu Yao's face turned red from shammed although she heard a rumor about Zhao Li Xin and Tang Mei Yi deteriorating relationship but she thought it's only a small quarrel between lovers, just like Tang Mei Yi she also had a delusion about Zhao Li Xin and Tang Mei Yi none existed relationship.

"Do you know why there relationship turn south?" Lao Min Na smiles cunningly "Its because another woman influenced Zhao Li Xin, she is the one who make him hated Miss Tang, she also the one who make Zhao Li Xin push your disciple into the edged" Lao Min Na said in a gentle manner but her words are filled with toxic she knew very well which words can drive Lu Yao crazy.

A Long time ago Lu Yao fell in love with a man who supposed to be her fiancée but sadly he met another woman, against everyone objection he married that woman and refuse to take second wife or concubines leaving Lu Yao heartbroken and humiliated, even until now she still can't forget what happened and still deeply hurt by that man, She then work hard and become who she is now to get that man attention but unfortunately that man never gives her a glance he did not even care to talk to her and Lu Yao was hurt all over again.

She didn't want her disciple to experience heartache like she was so when she heard about another woman beside Zhao Li Xin she lost her clear mind her expression become vicious and the air around her changed tremendously as if she was back to her past when that man abandoned her she can only feel pain and rage.

"Who is that s**t" she hissed with a cold voice.

"Just a wasted woman who can cultivate she also coming from low background, she is nothing compared to Tang Mei Yi but she smart and quite a vixen if not how could Zhao Li Xin fond of her," Lao Min Na said with concern expression she wanted to increase Lu Yao anger and she succeeds, Lu Yao grip the armrest of her couch until in broke to smithereens.

"Whose that woman name!" Lu Yao hand trembles from holding her anger.

Lao Min Na smiles inwardly when she saw Lu Yao reaction "Luo Ri Yi"

It took a long time for Lao Min Na to realizes Luo Ri Yi identity who is worked in her Manor, she even has a clash with her because she changed her appearance Lao Min Na didn't recognize her immediately but when she comes to Jiu Yun sect and saw the white bird only than everything is 'Click'.

No wonder she could never find her after what happened in her courtyard, turns out she was under Zhao Li Xin protection although she never understands why a man like Zhao Li Xin would help someone who gives no advantages for him, is it because of….love? no way hell she would believe it.

Whatever agreement between Zhao Li Xin and that woman Lao Min Na cannot let that woman alive she hated to admit it but she felt threatened by her and its even clearer when her weird bird subdue her phoenix at that time the eyes of that woman when she looking at her is like an Emperor stare at commoner, she feel like a trash like she was nothing on her presence, she felt awful and her hatred to Luo Ri Yin intensified, she needs to kill her as soon as possible.
