The Princess And The Lord

"Master, don't be sad" he tugged Lory sleeve "I'll buy you a lot of dress when I grown-up"

Lorry feel arrow just hit her chest, she suddenly embrace Shin Jiu, such a cute boy she kisses the little boy cheeks until his face red from shy, the truth is Lory didn't sad at all she thought perhaps she mistook that place as one of Hei Shen business chain so she thought about another way to contact them, that why suddenly she becomes quiet and Shin Jiu thought she was sad after everyone ridiculed her, he hated all that mean people, his Master just a bit weird with so-so appearance how could they treat her like beggar. ​​

If Lory heard his thought she might ask if he mocked her or compliment her?

"Let's buy some candy for you!" she pinched his cheek "You like Tanghulu?"

Shin Jiu's face lit up, he had eaten Tanghulu once and only a little because at that time many people chasing them so they spend there time hiding.

Lory took him to the candy stall "Sir can I have this one" she points one of the hawthorn candy.

The seller smiles happily and gives her the candy to her while saying "You have a handsome son"

"He is isn't he?" Lory smile like a proud mother than she gives the candy to Shin Jiu, it just a simple comment from her but her words shaken Shin Jiu heart it gives him a wave of warmth he never felt before, people use to mock him because he didn't have parents they said his parents must hate him that's why they throw him away although his grandpa said that is not true but for a little boy who needs his parents love it make him feel sad and lonely so Lory words make him feel overwhelmed.

"Is it good?" Lory asked.

The boy didn't dare to look at her because her eyes moist with tears he just nods his head while licking his candy, Lory find him adorable while acting like normal kid, she strokes the boy's head dotingly but it only make his tears fall thankfully she didn't realize it so he wiped his tears immediately.

"Let's find somewhere to rest" Lory searches for an inn and not far from them there's a small inn with wooden placate on the wall and lampion on the entrance.

Lory rent one of the biggest rooms with two beds because a certain little man didn't want to share a bed. The room is neat and clean although is not too big but is not small either, Lory open the window so she can let the fresh air enter the room, from her room she can see the small river and small boat below her room, she smiles with satisfied.

The kitten jumps to the bed and snuggles under the blanket, the monkey sits on the window frame while scratching its head and the dog sits near the table with Shin Jiu who still busy licking and chewing his candy, it does feel like family trip if only Zhao Li Xin is here with her.

Lory let out a long sigh, she missed that handsome man very much and he worries about him, he might be though she was dead she can't imagine how sad he is right now, what would she do if she thought Zhao Li Xin dead...Lory shakes her head, she wouldn't survive from another heartbreak.

Lory brew the 'Pink blossom tea' again and her tea stock had depleted a lot because shin Jiu and his monkey also love to drink this tea, Lory blow her teacup she can't stop worried for him she didn't expected him to be enraged and making war because of her but judging by Zhao Li Xin behavior this is not a surprised.

"Master, what's wrong?" Shin Jiu asked, his innocent eyes blink a few times while staring at her.

Lory sigh than raised her hand above the table and her head leaning on her palm "I miss someone…" she said with a low voice.

"You're fiancée?" Shin Jiu guess.

"Uh-huh…" she answers briefly.

Shin Jiu tilted his head "What kinda man you're fiancée is?"

Smile bloom on her face "He is….kind, gentle, understanding he pampered me more than anyone, he always protecting me, he such a worrywart..." Lory chuckles when she remembers his worry face.

"But….you got hurt…." He reminds her of how he had found her hurt badly near the river.

"I know….that's why I think he's very sad right now…" Lory said bitterly.
