The Princess And The Lord

Golden swallow inn is one of the most luxurious Inn in Yun Dao city, this place is only been established less than two years and already become one the most famous Inn in the city, no one knows who is the owner of the place but one thing is certain that the Wu family is the backer of this place.

knowing that the place is supported by the second most influential family in the city, no one dares to trouble the Golden swallow inn even though a lot of business rival sound their dissatisfaction and envy but nothing they could do since everyone has the right to open their business.

Sanguan Wu Ci saw the Golden swallow plaque on the high wall and written beautifully with real gold ink, the plaque itself already shows how splendid the place is, and right in front of the door, a beautiful young female servant welcomes all the guest who just arrived with warm smiles as if they are family, just from the hospitality at the front door Golden swallow inn already beat other inns.

"Welcome to Golden Swallow Inn" the beautiful servant acts as a hostess as she warmly welcomes Sanguan Jin Sheng and his companion.

Without beat around the bush, he gives order with a stern face "I want to meet with someone name Lu Xin!" 

the lady didn't show any despondent expression as a beautiful smile still plastered on her pretty face, she ignores Sanguan Jin Sheng rude behavior and answers politely"Please wait for a moment master Sanguan, I will get the manager for you" The young lady bowed her head gracefully then approach a clerk behind the desk and whisper something to him, the clerk then nod and order a young male servant next to him. 

The young male servant quickly left with long strides to the back door and later on a man with a black goatee beard and modest but elegant dark grey robes approach Sanguan Jin Sheng, he cupped his fist and bow politely as he greets Sanguan Jin Sheng "I'm the manager of this place, my name is Fang Yu, it's a pleasure finally to meet you Master sanguan" the manager smiled widely until his slanted eyes turn into a crescent.

Sanguan Jin sheng remains indifferent he was used to people treating him with respect, nonetheless, there is something bothering him, he looks at the manager with probing eyes and says: "I never came to this place before but everyone seems to know about me?" he becomes suspicious because the maid and the manager seem to know about him beforehand.

Fang Yu smiles brightly "Of course we know about everyone from the Sanguan family, as the most influential family besides the royal family we are obligated to know everyone Sanguan family face, we don't want accidentally wronged one of the sanguan family members, even if I eat thousands of leopard heart I would not dare to provoke the sanguan family" the manager looks genuinely anxious as he conveys his worries. 

the manager's excuse is reasonable so Sanguan Jin Sheng didn't ask further, although inwardly he amazes how meticulous the manager is. Fang Yu smiles in relief because Sanguan Jin Sheng believes him "Oh yes, master sanguan don't you said you want to meet with master Lu Xin, he had been expecting you, please follow me" Fang Yu make a hand gesture to follow him.

Sanguan Jin Sheng slightly annoyed "He does…?"

Fang Yu smile innocently "Yes, please come with me master" 

Sanguan Jin sheng and Sanguan Wu Ci exchange quick glances before they follow Fang Yu to the second floor. The room Zhao Li Xin rent is not the most expensive one only slightly better than the normal room, Sanguan Wu Ci sighs in relief because his brother accomplishment is so ordinary, turn out Lu Xin is only well off merchant.

Don't blame him for being petty because he knows the reason he becomes the sanguan family next patriarch not only because he is the legitimated Son but also because his father had no other better son who is more outstanding than him, however, deep down Sanguan Wu Ci is certain if one day another talented son appears better than him Sanguan Jin Sheng would have no qualm to replace him.

Impatient waiting for another permission Sanguan Jin Sheng shove Fang Yu harshly and push the door open violently. Fang yu wanted to get in but Chu Tao blocked him with his sword.

"Scram!" he glares at the poor manager.

Fang Yu look hesitated but he feel helpless so he bows his head and left. Unbeknown to Chu tao and the other bodyguard who is too focus on their master they missed the murderous intent flash in Fang Yu's eyes.

"Lu Xin, I came here to take you back home," he said firmly without showing any leeway.

Sanguan Wu Ci probes his gaze towards the man who was sitting near the window, he only saw a part of his side face since the man didn't bother to welcome them. Zhao Li Xin's eyebrows creased slightly, he detests anyone who disturbed his peace, knowing the man is Sanguan Jin Sheng only deepen his annoyance towards his dearest father.

Zhao Li Xin hold his irritation then shift his head towards them and suddenly everyone except Sanguan Jin Sheng was dumbfounded, when they saw Zhao Li Xin heaven-defying countenance they all stupefied, never in their life they saw anyone who has an exquisite figure like Zhao Li Xin, the man is so handsome it feel surreal.

Even sanguan Wu Ci feel inferior when he stands in front of Zhao Li Xin, suddenly an uncomfortable feeling creeps into his heart Sanguan Wu Ci balled his fist tightly behind his sleeve.

He incessantly remains himself that the man is nothing but a pretty face, other than his face Zhao Li Xin couldn't match his talent and his high-level cultivation moreover he has better background compare to Qin Mu Yi who swarmed with so many scandals, compares to him Zhao Li Xin is nothing but a beautiful vase. After he convinces himself gradually he feel better and demeanor back to normal again.

Zhao Li Xin didn't know and didn't care what sanguan Wu Ci thinking, the only thing bother him that Sanguan Wu Ci might be eyeing his beloved princess, he wouldn't care this much if Sanguan Wu Ci eyeing his position as Hei Shen Sect master but Lory.....she will always be his reverse scale.

"I never said I'm agree to return home" Zhao Li Xin perfunctorily said, but then he make polite gesture to invited them to have a sit. His polite behavior feel like a mockery for Sanguan Jin Sheng, if not because he needs Zhao Li Xin so badly he would never acknowledge Zhao Li Xin as his Son.

Sanguan Jin Shen tamped down his irritation as he said righteously "You are my Son, how could I let my owned Son live outside?" he sounds very sad and apologetic.

Zhao Li Xin unperturbed by his dearest father acting "Oh, But I've been live all alone these years and I'm doing are you sure you want to bring a Son that you never know for twenty-five years back to your home?" is hard to read if Zhao Li Xin shows his disheartened or simply mocked Sanguan Jin Sheng.

However, Sanguan Jin Sheng didn't want to risk to ruined their relationship before he could use him, he look at Zhao Li Xin in a forlorn look and says: "That because I don't know that you are still alive, if I do, I would immediately fetch you back home…you are my Son?"

Compare to anyone he ever met in the past Sanguan Jin sheng acted is one of the best he ever seen 'well done!' finally there something he can proud of about his biological father.

"Why?" Zhao Li Xin tilted his head "My mother has betrayed you, there also a possibility that I'm not your biological son so why are you so interested in me?" he asked in a polite manner while pouring the wine on the two small porcelain cup then shove lightly for Sanguan Jin Sheng, his moves is elegant and fluid without a single flaw, Zhao Li Xin then lean his back on the chair and stare at sanguan Jin Sheng "Don't you worry people would say you raised someone else Son?"

Sanguan Jin Sheng clenched his jaw, He had no words to answer Zhao Li Xin question. Of course, when he brings him home a lot of people would question him, but thankfully they have undeniable similarity on their apperance so no one can't deny that Zhao Li Xin is his Son

"We are both so alike, who dare to doubt that we are not related…" he rather complacent when he said they have similar face, on contrary Zhao Li Xin stomach churn when they heard Sanguan Jin Sheng statement. If not because Lory said she loves his face very much Zhao Li Xin would consider changing his face. 

They are quite similar but Zhao Li Xin also inherited his Mother beautiful countenance in the past Qin Mu Yi who later know as Sanguan Mu Yi is renowned as the most beautiful lady in the city, a lot of men try to court her but always failed since she rarely goes outside and a bit aloof. She was once everyone's dream girl no one would believe that someday her reputation would plunge to this state.

"Well, thank you for your…..concern, but I'm afraid when I follow you home today no one in your family would respect me, I already been bullied because I didn't have a father so I don't want to be bully again for having no mother" Zhao Li Xin bitterly said.

Zhao Li Xin acted convince Sanguan Jin Sheng, his words make him remorseful for a second but the feeling evaporated as fast as it come, meanwhile Zhao Li Xin used Bei Li Yan advice to think about Lory angry face when kick him out of the room to make him look sad, and it works like a charmed!

"You don't have to be worry, if something happened, you could come to me or to your younger brother for help" Sanguan Jin Sheng patted sanguan Wu Ci's shoulder while he introduces him proudly, it very obvious how much he fond of his talented Son.

"Nice to meet you, big…brother" Sanguan Wu Ci said awkwardly, in front of his father he must hide his dissatisfaction he just hopes his father true to his words about Zhao Li Xin. 

Sanguan Wu Ci didn't realize he leaks his thought for a second but not fast enough from Zhao Li Xin keen observation, he laughs inwardly because Sanguan Wu Ci remains him with a few people that he was known. His proud and opportunist behavior remains him with Zhao Mu Fan, his insecurity, and Sanguan Wu Ci's dependency to his family name and self reputation remain him with Zhao Qin Feng but there also righteousness struggle to come out of the hypocrisy within him that remains him with Zhao Yi Chen.

A sardonic smile faintly shows on his face, he has gone so far away from the kingdom he grew up in only to find his half-brother share similarity with his three 'adopted' brothers.
