"Ah, right. Master Yin did tell that you will be coming," said the butler as he stepped to one side. "Please forgive for my imprudence." Though he spoke to Kang Jing, his gaze was fixated on Luo Huian.
Not once did he move his gaze away, his eyes were dazed as he blushed furiously.
Kang Jing’s eyes narrowed as he stepped in front of Luo Huian before saying, "Can you take us to your masters?"
The butler snapped out of his daze, he turned to look at Kang Jing with so slight annoyance but when he saw Kang Jing glare at him, he imdiately lowered his head in terror.
"I am sorry, please follow ," the butler lowered his head and then invited the three of them inside the house.
Once he was out of earshot, Kang Jing turned and shot a reproving look at Luo Huian before saying, "Way to go, Huian. Don’t you think that you are attracting way too many bees and butterflies?"
"Is it my fault that I am born beautiful?" Luo Huian asked, sounding affronted. "What do you expect to do about it?"
"I don’t know, use your brain, Huian. With how small it is, I believe that you will get to a conclusion very soon," Kang Jing sneered as he turned on his feet and walked away.
Luo Huian watched him walk away and turned around to look at Bai Shiliu before remarking, "He likes Sister Qingling, right? So why does he feel upset over my beautiful face? Even if I attract bees and butterflies, what of it?"
She turned and looked at Kang Jing before grumbling, "Is he jealous of the fact that I look more beautiful than him? It’s not sothing I can control, can I? Anyway, I look more beautiful than half of the human population or maybe more." She flicked her hair behind her shoulders.
Bai Shiliu refrained from making any comnt as she too could not understand what was going on with Kang Jing, he clearly had been chasing after Luo Qingling but suddenly he was paying more and more attention to Luo Huian.
Usually, he would have left a mission like this in the hands of Dong Geming but instead, he chose to co with them, it both made her confused and bewildered.
’Please tell , he isn’t crushing on Huian,’ Bai Shiliu thought with closed eyes, however as she opened her eyes and looked at Luo Huian’s face —she knew that it was impossible for a r to stop himself from developing a crush on her.
The two of them did not talk for a while and stepped inside the manor, where they followed Kang Jing and the butler.
The Butler soon brought the three of them into a wide hall which opened to a tall do-ceiling room. There were staircases on both sides of the room and in the middle sat a large vase of roses.
On the walls of the room were many pictures which looked both artistic and expensive.
And in the middle of the room stood a r and a woman.
The woman was dressed in a white business dress, that comprised of an uneven shirt with full sleeves and a belt secured around her waist and a white pencil skirt with a slit.
Her curly brown hair was left ssily behind her hair, and her skin had a healthy brown tan. With her brown eyes that resembled two pools of chocolate, the woman smiled at them.
Behind her, was a r. He was just as beautiful as the woman. He was dressed in a loose white silk shirt which was haphazardly shoved into his beige pants, one of the corners was inside while the other corner was hanging out of the pants.
"Please forgive for the inconvenience," said Yin Song as he tucked a strand of his hair behind his ear. He stepped forward and uncrossed his arms, "I am the one who requested this mission. I am Yin Song, the husband of Ren Yazhu."
He turned to look at Ren Yazhu who stepped forward and shook hands with Kang Jing, "I am Ren Yazhu, Ren Lin’s mother."
"I am Kang Jing," introduced Kang Jing. He then turned to look at Luo Huian and Bai Shiliu. "And this is Bai Shiliu."
"Hello," Bai Shiliu bowed her head.
"And the one beside her is Luo Huian, you might already know her as you submitted the request under her na," Kang Jing remarked as he introduced Luo Huian.
"Glad to make an acquaintance," Luo Huian formally greeted the two of them.
"Indeed," Ren Yazhu smiled at Luo Huian before saying, "Please follow us."
She took them to the living room where they sat down on the couch and Ren Yazhu started speaking once again,
"I never imagined that our request would be taken by the hunters of the Heavens Knights guild," she looked at Luo Huian before adding, "Especially you, Miss Huian. You are the new star of this city and if I dare say —this nation."
"You are so young and yet you are already famous all over the nation just like your sister. I an what else can we even expect from Miss Qingling’s sister?"
"Well, you can count yourself lucky," remarked Luo Huian. "I ran into your daughter and sohow noticed that there was sothing wrong with her. I decided to take the job imdiately."
Ren Yazhu’s eyes widened but before she could say anything more, Yin Song crossed his arms and nodded, "Indeed you are right, Miss Huian. There is sothing very wrong with my daughter. She is already ten years old and soon she is going to be eleven and yet she hasn’t awakened."
"Not to ntion, she is neither getting anywhere with her musical talent nor studies. Just on the last test, she only scored an A grade on all her test papers. I thought that I would die of sha when I saw her report card."
"Die of sha because of an A grade?" Bai Shiliu murmured under her breath. "If a parent dies of sha because of an A grade, then my parents would have died countless tis by now."
