The Princess And The Lord



Lilliane felt her legs lose strength she nearly fell to her knees luckily her boyfriend caught her "Lilly! Lilly what's wrong with you!" he called out to Lilliane worriedly.

Lory was just as surprised as he didn't know what had happened to the girl why her whole face was white as powder all of a sudden but this reaction felt familiar and she remembered why, it often happened in the cultivator world when someone met Zhao Li Xin! Lory turned her gaze meaningfully to the perpetrator who smiled so sweetly at her.

"Lilly, Lilly talk to me!" her boyfriend shook her shoulders frantically which was understandable but if he kept doing that he might end up hurting the poor little girl instead.

Lory let out a long sigh, even that powerful cultivator inevitably trembled in front of Zhao Li Xin, and Bei Li Yan used to say to her that staying in the same room alone with Zhao Li Xin was unbearable and it took a long time him and the others to get used to Zhao Li Xin's presence.

If someone like the four king's palace can't hold their calm the first time they met Zhao Li Xin so no wonder an innocent girl like Lilliane would faint against Zhao Li Xin's agonizing aura.

Lory bent toward Lilly and then Lory placed her hands on top of Lilly's head "Miss, are you okay?"

Was it like a light breeze, the darkness dissipated in an instant and was replaced by a delicate scent that wafted to her nose, immediately reminding her of the scent of… bluebell flowers?

Lilliane gradually regained her senses back and when she looked up, she was dazzled by a serene smile.

"Are you feeling better, miss?"

Lilly was shocked she felt disoriented for a few seconds and then realized she was being hugged by her scum boyfriend Lilly quickly got up but because she was moving too fast she felt dizzy her body swayed thankfully Lory swiftly hold her so Lilly didn't fall again

"Be careful miss!" Lory felt sorry for the innocent girl who experienced Zhao Li Xin's intimidating aura.

Lily realized she had been rude toward the man who seemed didn't know her so it was no wonder he felt offended even though his reaction was a bit...strong, but regardless, it was still her fault, "No, it's my fault, I'm sorry, I don't mean to be rude...I just" Lilly sincerely apologizes.

However, Mister Boyfriend didn't think Lily do anything wrong, and when he notices the shopping bag in Lory and Zhao Li Xin's hands from a low-end brand he immediately assumed that Lory and Zhao Li Xin were just ordinary people and he becomes smug instantly, he thought these people are not in the same position as him and Lily.

The man gritted his teeth, "It's not your fault Lilly, those who were rude to you and caused you harm yet they didn't even apologize!" he sneered as he pointed at Zhao Li Xin.

"Shut up Ron, don't meddle in this matter!" Frustration crossed her face Lily didn't expect this stupid swindler to launch an attack on them, what if she actually angered this scary man? while the truth is she needed this master to alleviate some of her grandfather's stress after the terrible thing happened to their family.

Alas, how could the stupid boyfriend know about this therefore he feels wronged "But Lily they..."

"Shut up!" Lily shot him a warning look.

Lory didn't want to get involved with them any further "Your boyfriend is right, I apologize for my husband's behavior" Lory gave a polite nod "Have a nice day then.." Lory wrapped her hand around Zhao Li Xin's arm and walked away.

"WA...WAIT!" watching them go Lilly panicked again. She couldn't lose this man for her grandfather's sake because no one knew better than her how much her grandfather needed good news to cheer him up a bit.

"Hey, you can just leave like that!" The man name Ron scold them he thought Lory and Zhao Li Xin were running away.

A wave of anger and frustration engulfed her like wildfire, this time she was even angrier with this man than when she found out he was cheating on her. Lilly kicked the man's leg with all her might causing the man to fall on his knee and then his face hit the ground, not caring about what happened to her ex-boyfriend, Lily chased after Lory and Zhao Li Xin.

"Ouch!" blood dripping from his nose the stupid young man stared helplessly at his beautiful girlfriend who resolutely left him without even looking back, he can only mutter dejectedly "Li...Lilly!"

"Miss, master, please wait!" Lilly desperately called out to them.

Lory didn't know why Lily was so persistent, at first she thought it was because Lily liked Zhao Li Xin as that was usually the case but the girl's reaction showed it didn't seem like it so what was the reason? Lory got curious.

Lory stopped in her tracks and then calmly waited for Lilly to reach them, Lily was relieved to see that Lory had decided to stop. However, when she managed to get close to Lory she couldn't speak because she was out of breath, Lilly raised her hand to ask Lory to give her a moment, Lily then bent on her stomach trying to catch her breath.

"You okay Miss?" Lory was in awe of this girl's determination, especially her ability to run with the seven-inch stilettos flawlessly.

Lilly waved her hand to assure Lory she was fine, but her heavy breathing show otherwise. A few minutes later, Lily was finally able to calm down despite being embarrassed by her messy state, "Forgive my ex-boyfriend's stupid behavior" Lily emphasized the word 'ex' while seething her teeth.

Lory didn't really care about the man's behavior, he wasn't the first and definitely not the last yet Lory was more curious as to what Lilly wanted with her or to be precise Zhao Li Xin.

"So…is there anything we can help miss?" Lory squints her eyes.

"Hamilton, my name is Lilliane Hamilton!" Lilly said candidly.

Lory was taken aback for a second but it immediately disappear before Lilly could see it, "So what can we help Miss Hamilton?"

"Well…actually" Lilly glance fearfully at Zhao Li Xin.

Even though Zhao Li Xin had covered his face with sunglasses and a face mask but Lilly was still able to feel the frightening aura around him and her body cannot stop trembling. 

What they didn't know was that Lilly actually had the unique talent to see auras and not only humans but also objects, because of that Lilly was able to detect other people's intentions and when it comes to an object she can judge whether the object is dangerous or not including the age of the object so she could determine if the object is the real antique or not but somehow she misjudges her boyfriend characters, so she wonder if there something is wrong with her ability?

So Lilly wondered if she had made a mistake in getting a good read on the mood of the man she was expecting because she had never felt such a horrible feeling before.

"Miss, if you need anything, let us know maybe we can help you," said Lory in a gentle tone.

For a moment Lily was dumbfounded, why did this woman give off a calm feeling like a gentle breeze on a gentle and peaceful meadow, how could the couple's auras contradict each other just like water and fire? it seems there is indeed a problem with her ability.

Lory saw a strange glint in Lily's brown eyes for a moment before it disappeared as Lily blinked.

"Then... uhm, actually my grandfather has been looking for you for the past few days but we couldn't find you anywhere" Lily smiled shyly.

"You mean my husband right? Does your grandfather need something from my husband?" Lory wanted to know what the influential family like the Hamilton family wanted with Zhao Li Xin.

"As I explained earlier, my grandfather likes the master's painting very much and would like to support this master if he so wishes, of course?" Lilly explained politely for fear of offending Zhao Li Xin further.

On the other hand, Zhao Li Xin didn't care at all, instead, he looked a little bored.

Meanwhile, Lory's eyes widen, it took a few minutes before she was able to comprehend what Lily said "Support?...as what?"

"Ink painter, of course!" Lily's face was beaming with delight.

"...." Lory paused, "Ink painter?"

"Yes!" Lilly didn't know why Lory looks surprised she doesn't know her husband is a genius painter as her grandfather proclaimed.

"Did you not know your husband is a good painter?" Lily look at Lory with a baffled look.

"No…I know he is…" Lory was rendered speechless as she was lost in her thought.
