Jin Hua looked down and smiled how could she not know that his brother was actually warm-hearted despite his cold and indifferent outward appearance, "You are kind…" she muttered under her breath.
Jin Hao subconsciously clears his throat awkwardly before he quickly changes the subject "So when are you going to leave, the sooner is the better"
Jin Hao cleared his throat before he quickly changed the subject, "So when you go, the sooner the better" he pressed.
"I won't" Jin Hua shook her head, she quickly explained when she saw Jin Hao's disappointnt, "Don't get wrong, it's not that I can't bear to leave, actually I will go after I..." she wanted to say' revenge' but it sounded preposterous since she realized that she still wasn't strong enough to beat that woman especially when Jin Kai was around.
"So why are you staying there?" Jin Hao curiously asked.
Jin Hua smiled helplessly, "Not everyone in Misty Lake is a bad person, so of them are like us and our mother who are forced to follow the rules regardless of whether they want to or not, just like us they also struggle to live... desperately trying to protect themselves and their children ... No matter what happens, we cannot deny that these innocent children are our brothers, sisters, and cousins, I know you are wouldn't agree with my decision, but I can't leave them and save myself" Jin Hua lowered her head nervously, she was afraid to hear what Jin Hao would say, but she was determined to help all the innocent won and children who were trapped there.
Normally Jin Hao would say that he's stupid but after knowing Lory his mindset gradually changed, there's no harm in protecting others even though they might not appreciate it or even know about it but it doesn't matter right. Because it's up to you what you want to beco. A hero, a villain, or a re passerby it's up to you to decide.
"I see..." Jin Hao let out a long exhales.
Jin Hua stares at Jin Hao in surprise, "You do, you don't think I'm stupid?" she subconsciously raised her voice excitedly.
"No, I still think you are stupid!" Jin Hao said curtly, Jin Hua looks down as she feel discouraged but then Jin Hao continued in a heavy tone "But that doesn't an I'm not proud of you..."
Jin Hua's face was beaming with joy, her eyes sparkling like stars. Jin Hao wasn't soone who easily complinted anyone in fact it was really hard to gain praise from him that's why when she was a kid she would work extra hard to receive at least his acknowledgnt.
"Thank you brother" she smiled shyly.
Jin Hao responded with a snarky snort.
"Oh, if I stay in the Misty Lake, I can help you to watch Jin Kai and Lao Min Na's plans" he quickly regained his spirits.
Jin Hao rolled his eyes in ridicule, "I've planted quite a number of people there" although he sounds crude, however, that's how Jin Hao expressed 'I don't want you to get hurt' and Jin Hua knows this.
"But, it's not the sa!" he insisted "You know there are places in Misty Lake that only high-ranking family mbers can enter, so I thought I could give you more valuable information than any of your spies" he folded his arms across her chest confidently.
Instead of being happy, Jin Hao's expression stiffened, "Don't trouble yourself!" he reprimanded Jin Hua firmly.
However, Jin Hua smiles from ear to ear knowing Jin Hao was worried about her which only made Jin Hua more eager to help him, moreover helping Jin Hao is the sa as helping herself, Jin Hua patted his chest then said: "Brother don't worry about , I'm not a little girl anymore, I know how to take care of myself.
Jin Hao was silent, then Jin Hua slowly approached him then she gently held Jin hao's hand the sa way she held his hand when they were little, Jin Hua raised her gaze and gently smiled at him "Let do this brother, for once in my life I want to do sothing to help you… please"
Her pleading eyes made him unable to refute. Jin Hao couldn't help but sigh heavily, "You've grown Xiao Hua"

"What are you doing here?" Bei Li Yan's brows knit tightly. He never thought he would find Tian ng Ji in one of his brothels.
The old man was surrounded by beautiful courtesan's in bright skimpy dresses that showed their necks and slender cleavage, Tian ng Ji's face turned deep red he didn't know where to look he could only lower his gaze and drink his wine silently while the won around all around him giggled seeing his embarrassed face.
Tian ng Ji smiled in relief when he saw Bei Li Yan enter the room even though it was clear that Bei Li Yan did not feel the sa way.
"What's wrong with visiting my student underlings" The old man raised his gaze acting arrogant all of a sudden but when he accidentally saw the courtesan plump chest he blushed like a boiling crab then quickly averted his gaze awkwardly while the courtesan laughed at Tian ng Ji attitude.
Bei Li Yan waved her hand and all of the won in the room quickly left the room.
He looked at Tian ng Ji and sneered "of course it's wrong, first of all, my master is not your student anymore and your arrival disturbs my busy life"
Bei Li Yan's words were like a stab to the heart he glared at Bei Li Yan angrily and shouted, "What do you an by that, have you never heard, one day a teacher, Father forever!" he puffed out his chest arrogantly.
Bei Li Yan suppressed his laugh, "Are you sure you want to be my master's father, don't you rember what my master did to his father and all his biological family?" Bei Li Yan thinks Tian ng Ji doesn't realize how ridiculous his statent is, sotis he wonders why Tian ng Ji seems failed to understand Zhao Li Xin's temper lately.
Strangely Tian ng Ji used to be more understanding and open-minded towards Zhao Li Xin, that's why their relationship lasted so long but after what happened to Lu Yao and Tang i Yi their relationship slowly changed, Maybe Tian ng Ji is still grieving over the loss of his old lover and Tang i Yi that he watched growing up, but he couldn't be angry with his only disciple so he took all his anger on Lory.
Tian ng Ji pursed his lips furiously then swallowed the entire wine cup in one gulp then slamd the bottom of the cup onto the table with a bang.
Bei Li Yan rolled his eyes seeing the old man sulking, he flicked his robe then sat lazily across from Tian ng Ji, "Say what do you want?" he asked lazily as he poured himself a cup of wine. To be honest, if Tian ng Ji wasn't Zhao Li Xin's forr teacher, he wouldn't be this patient with him.
Bei Li Yan's attitude irritated him so much, he shouted angrily at Bei Li Yan, "I am an elder, can you treat with respect?!" he pounded the table furiously.
Bei Li Yan didn't even flinch instead she looked at him with ridicule in her eyes "Oh please… this is the last place you ever expect to be respected, you should go to Jiang Jin Wei's place if you want to be respected" he lifted his wine cup and took a sip his wine in a graceful manner.
Tian ng Ji's face turned gloomy, he did visit Jiang Jin Wei but he couldn't find him because the man was too busy dealing with Hei Shen matters, after all, he was the most hardworking Palace Lord compared to the other three.
Tian ng Ji then ca to Jin Hao's place but like Jiang Jin Wei he was also absent. Feeling very annoyed he finally decided to co to Bei Li Yan's place instead of Wu San Bo.
Although Wu San Bo from the outside looked more polite, but that man always made him lose money by persuading him to buy things he didn't need, that's why Tian ng Ji was more afraid of Wu San Bo than Bei Li Yan who mostly only infuriate him
