Lory weakly smile "No one silly, who dare to hurt Long Ming wife"

Zhao Li Xin furrows his eyebrows, he still in doubt. For all he knows Lory is a very strong woman, she got perseverance that's not even a man like him could match and when he saw her broke down in the rain Zhao Li Xin knew there's something terribly wrong.

"You know, you can tell me everything, right" the worry in his face still not diminished only increasing.

"I know…" she answers softly "I know you have to return to Sanguan Manor but….can you stay tonight, please"

His heart melted when he saw her frail expression, she looks that she would break apart with a slight touch. Zhao Li Xin pulls her in his embrace, he holds him tightly he wishes he can protect her from the world "I'll stay as long as you want…"

Her eyes welled up again, he circles her arms around his back then she holds him even tighter as if he would disappear if she let him go. Lory rests her cheek on his broad chest, when she shut her eyes tears run down her cheek.

'Whatever it takes, I will protect him' she vowed to herself.

Zhao Li Xin drew a long breath while gently stroking the back of her, the woman inside his arms is too small, his arms could easily cover her body, her arms were thin and her figure was lean she also very young not even twenty yet and when she was in her world her life end before she reaches thirty, she just a young normal girl who is on the peak of her life, she should enjoy her youth, but Lory burden with immense responsibility that could break any strong men on their knees.

"What can I do for you…?" he whispers while stroking her hair, his voice sound defeated and fill with sadness if there any miracle in this world he would give anything to take her pain away.

Outside the room Girsha perch on the roof, his beautiful green eyes stare at the dark clouds. The pounding in his heart gradually slows down as a sign that Lory's condition stabilizes.

Girsha feel relief but at the same time he feel powerless, he can't comfort her because he is not human he didn't know how to make her feel better just like in the past all he could do is following her wherever she goes, but he can't hold her, he can't wipe her tears, he can't do what human could do.

Luckily she got Zhao Li Xin by her side now, he understands her and he accepts everything in her whether is the best or the worst of her that boy didn't mind it. He is everything that she not but he also the only one who can give everything she needs. Lory can't lose another person she holds dear anymore, this time she will wreck.

Once again the lightning split the sky like a brilliant light and the earth-shattering boom of thunder follow, Girsha spread his white wings he soars to the sky like a bullet, he glides between the lightning, he let out a long piercing squawk venting his frustration to the innocent sky and the sky answer with rumbles.

The next morning Lory awoke by the sound of the steady patter of rain outside her window, the weather should be cold but she feel warm, Lory looks down then notice Zhao Li Xin arm resting on her waist and her back press by his chest, no wonder she feel so comfortable she sleeps through the night without even dreaming.

"Morning…" he whispers in her ear with a raspy voice.

Lory turn her body around to face him "You still here?" she quite surprised Zhao Li Xin didn't leave before dawn.

"Of course, you told me to" he replies bluntly.

Lory stifles "are you going to do anything I said…"

"Isn't that obvious" when he didn't listen to her request if Lory said she wants the moon he would find a way to have it for her, the level of him pampering her is beyond comprehension.

"I get it, but you need to return to sanguan manor, don't worry about me. I'll be fine" she patted his chest lightly.

"But I always worry about you," he said, that's the only explanation why he always returns home at an odd moment, because he always came home when he feel something not right.

"I know…." Lory sighs "But, I'm fine now….I swear" she reassured him again.

"You don't have to forces yourself, I will accompany you here….in fact, we don't have to do anything" Zhao Li Xin didn't want her to put up a strong front all the time is not like he wants her to be brave all the time especially in front of him.

Sweet smile bloom on her face, she holds his palm then she rests his palm on her cheek "That is tempting offer….but we have a lot of things to do, today princess Youya will visit our manor"

"Oh, I forgot about it….can't you handle it? I can send Bei Li Yan if you feel tired..." Zhao Li Xin hopes she would just rest and stop trouble herself even better If she relies on him more.

"You know what, I think my Father will like you but he will chide you for how much you spoiling me" she teased. But she genuinely thought that her father with not pleased knowing she's been spoiled rotten by Zhao Li Xin. Her father is a good father but he also a very strict father.

"Well, I just take that as a compliment" he shamelessly said.

Lory chuckles when she imagines how Zhao Li Xin and her Father butting their head about how to treat her. it would be interesting to watch, unfortunately, her Father already long gone and her last family separated by two worlds.

Zhao Li Xin saw her lost in her thought, he knows something in her mind again "What are you thinking?"

Her mouth curved into a smile, she traces her hands into his refine jawline as if she tries to remember every part of his face "I don't know what I would do without you…" she muttered softly.

"Why are you saying that?" he thought Lory's behave strangely from yesterday, well she always been a bit weird but this time is different.

"Nothing….I just realized I couldn't do anything without you"

Zhao Li Xin beamed "Do you mean, you can't live without me, is that what you mean" he suddenly got excited, even though he know Lory love him but Zhao Li Xin thought she would be alright even if he's gone because it is obvious who is more invested in this relationship.

"Why are you so surprised?" she simpered while staring at him like a fool.

Zhao Li Xin grin awkwardly, although he felt very happy, however, he was also a little bit embarrassed, but how could he tell her that he hoped she loved him as much she loved her brother 'how embarrassing' he thought to himself, he wonders could this Lord have no self-confidence? Okay, he admits he didn't have too much confidence in front of her.

"Nothing…I'm just happy" the corner of his mouth quirked up, he hoped she didn't know what he was thinking right now. Surprisingly since he met Lory he feel more like a normal man than he ever thought he could be, it's such an eye-opening experience for him.

"Stupid!" Lory flicks his forehead, and then she jumps out of the bed "I forgot Yue Yin will return home today, and I need to talk with Shin Jiu too" Lory sighs while drinking fresh water from the bowl, then she storms out of the room

Zhao Li Xin found himself abandoned by his princess, he rubbed his jawline then get off the bed calmly. Unlike most people who still pay attention to social decorum between man and woman, Zhao Li Xin has very little care about it maybe that's why the relationship between two people from different world goes smoothly.

Not once he ever reprimands Lory on how to act as a wife or woman, for him all that matters is that Lory happy, as long she's happy he doesn't give it da*n with anything else, afterall its not like he ever follow the rules anyway.

Mong Yi knock on the door, after he hears Zhao Li Xin permission he enters the room with a bronze basin and clean towel on the tray "Milord, Mong Liu said Miss Bai is looking for you" 

Zhao Li Xin's faces darken, his good mood instantly washes away when he heard Bai Xue's name. He didn't say anything, he washes his face and wipe his neck and hand with a towel then sauntered behind the partition follow by Mong Yi, without a need to hurry he changed his robes with Mong Yi's assistance.

Mong Yi didn't say anything ass well he knew when Zhao Li Xin didn't make a comment that means he really not care unless is something to do with the young madam, everything else is like pebbles on the street in his eyes. Today because Lory told him to return to sanguan manor he had no choice but to leave but decide he would return at tie Shan manor at midnight.

Even though she looks fine right now but Zhao Li Xin still worries about her since that woman has a habit to keep everything herself. Mong Yi help him to knotted his hair, he slips jade hairpin on his hair then he takes a step backward "Milord, there is new news from Mong Ki, he said many people from numerous sect start to contact Lao Min Na recently, it seems they all interested with the new breed beast"

"It seems so…." Zhao Li Xin perfunctorily reply.

"And the map, how is the progress?" his voice is calm and monotone with a slight hint of dissatisfaction which is not good for Mong Yi.

Mong Yi bows his head in reflex, the intimidating aura came from his Lord is not something he can get used to it even after years accompany him "Master Wu promised he would reveal the exact location right away" Mong Yi bow his head in reflex, the intimidating aura came from his Lord is not something he can get used to it even after years accompany him.

He bore his eyes into Mong Yi's face, the loyal subordinate is too terrified to lift his head. After long ten seconds, that feels like forever Zhao Li Xin gives a dismissive wave "Make sure you keep Lory safe"

Mong Yi feel like he granted amnesty, he subconsciously raised his voice slightly "Yes, Milord!"
