The Princess And The Lord

In the morning Lory idly browsed through the items for sale in the little treasure shop, most of the items weren't fancy jewelry made of rubies and diamonds, but each piece of merchandise had beautiful and intricate designs that couldn't be seen in any other store. Of course, one had to have a sharp eye to know the real value of the goods in this place, but unfortunately, most people who came to this place just wanted to steal a glance at Yang Xi Ying's while the other people who got better knowledge preferred to go to the shop that they already know besides no one will take seriously a small shop like this.

That's why the sale in the little treasure shop was not as big as the other shop that belonged to Hei Shen but it's not a problem because this shop was built as a place for Hei Shen to exchange information about Wei Zu Tian and the Heaven's Gate sect so it's good not to be conspicuous.

Lory was in the middle of sorting out hairpins when she found a hairpin made of copper and flowers made of coral red hairpins were very unique Lory thought it would suit Ming Yue Yin and coral white would look good on Yang Xi Ying.

Lory was giving the shopkeeper who was also a member of Hei Shen to wrap it up when she suddenly heard someone say.

"You taste is not that bad.."

Lory turned her head and was surprised to see Tao Bing Wen behind her pinching his chin while evaluating the hairpin she had chosen. Lory looked at the boy suspiciously and then blurted out her thoughts freely, "Did you get kicked by your father again?"

Embarrassed, Tao Bing Wen immediately covered his red face "Don't talk nonsense!"

Lory rolled her eyes "That's what happened before" she didn't understand why he was acting coy now "Why are you here, were you looking for me?" Lory casually asks.

Tao Bing Wen averted his gaze and weakly said "Y..yes"

Lory opened her palms in front of Tao Bing Wen they say: "Did you come to return the lunch money that time?"

Tao Bing Wen was rendered speechless "Miss, isn't that the compensation for saving your family why are you being so stingy?" he feel wronged.

"I've already paid for the medical expenses and it's not cheap, so I also need to pay for your lunch too, young Master a real hero will not ask for compensation from the people they help, right? " Lory said righteously.

"...." Tao Bing Wen cannot refute but his heart ached, why this girl is so mean to him.

Lory actually only joking with him because he slightly reminds her of Jay she can't help to tease the boy a bit, suddenly Lory hears a loud laugh, only now she realizes there is a middle-aged man with a neat beard and mustache not far from Tao Bing Wen and he was holding his stomach and laughed so hard until his face turned red.

Lory tilted her head slightly, she felt the middle-aged man looked familiar, but where had she seen him before.

Lory tilted her head curiously, she felt the middle-aged man looked familiar, but where had she seen him before, "That man?"

The middle-aged man wiped the corners of his eyes his face hurt from laughing too much, he liked Lory's way of speaking frankly without any malice in it, he didn't know if anyone would talk to Tao Bing Wen like that.

"Apologize for my behavior, let me introduce myself, my name is Tao Ji Fang" he puffed his chest appear to be more charismatic.

Lory raised her brows in surprise, she already knows who Tao Ji Fang was from the information she got from Mong Ki and Mong Yi so she was surprised to find Tao Ji Fang in her small store.

Lory quickly saluted him respectfully "Master Tao is an honor to meet you"

Tao Ji Fang waved his hands and smile widely "No, the honor is mine, miss...?"

As unoriginal as she can be, Lory introduced herself "My name is Luo...Yi" even Lory can believe how lame her made-up name was.

All of the Hei Shen paused their movements for a second before resuming their activities as normal, they could only lament to themselves that their Lord and madams were not creative in making names.

Lory could sense everyone's disappointment but what could she do, she really wasn't good at this.

"Ah Miss Luo" Tao Ji Fang cupped his fists politely then continued asking, "Oh, if I'm not mistaken you are married, if you don't mind may I greet your husband as well?" even though he gave up on setting Lory up with his stupid son, still he was curious as to what the husband of the girl who was almost become his daughter-in-law would look like.

Yang Zhou who was standing outside rolled his eyes in resignation, it seemed his master still cannot let go, he doesn't understand why Tao Ji Fang liked the girl so much in his opinion Tao Bing Wen need a strong wife from strong background to protect him, even though the girl was not bad but her humble background will drag the young master, Yang Zhou thought he might need to write the letter to the madam about this?

Lory didn't know what To Ji Fang was thinking she smiled kindly "Sorry, my husband is resting" Lory made an excuse.

"Oh, I see, what a shame" Tao Ji Fang regretted not being able to meet this girl's husband but later he would understand how lucky he was at that time.

Lory thought it was not good for them to talk here where other customers could hear what they talking about, "Master Tao why don't we talk in a private place, I can also show you a better product that may suit your taste as a gift for your wife?" Lory behaves like an actual merchant.

Tao Ji Fang thought it wasn't a bad idea, he really thought the craft in this store wasn't bad, he thought of buying some jewelry for his wife and old mother at the same time he could also get to know this girl better.

"Of course, it just so happens that my wife's birthday is coming soon maybe I can find a good gift for her" Tao Ji Fang smiled widely he felt this idea was very good.

Tao Bing Wen looked at his father suspiciously, his father was not a friendly person although he was polite but usually he will keep his distance and behave in a formal manner with the people he just met because of that his father's excessive enthusiasm made Tao Bing Wen feel his father had an ulterior motive, as a result, he became more convinced to send a letter to his mother later.

That's how three people with different thoughts went up to the second floor, correcting there were four people. When Yang Zhou peeked inside, he saw the master and young master going up to the second floor, his forehead immediately furrowed 'the master wasn't trying to ask the woman to divorce her husband to be with the Son, right?' the more he thought the more he worried then he decided to write a letter to the madam right away.

On the second floor, they entered a fairly large room, almost taking up the entire space on the second floor, although not exaggerating, this room looked elegant and sophisticated which made Tao Ji Fang slightly surprised by the atmosphere the room contradicted the atmosphere outside, he felt that there was more to this small shop than meets the eye.

'Little treasure' Tao Ji Fang muttered inwardly, he smiled slightly thinking the name was very appropriate.

Lory stepped into the room casually, she walked around the table then took a seat behind a large table, and then invited Tao Ji Fang and Tao Bing Wen to sit down, not long after that several waiters came in to deliver drinks and the shopkeeper came with several young waiters delivering various sizes of boxes and then placing a few boxes on the table while saying "Here are some of our newest products Master Tao, I hope you like it" the shopkeeper then sign the servant to open the box one by one.

Tao Bing wen and Tao Ji Fang's eyes widened in shock, he had never seen so many unique jewelry made of colored glass, coral, bronze, silver, and beads. One of them was a silver pendant engraved with a golden tree and then covered with transparent glass, the design was like something that came from another world, yes because it was.

It's just something Lory likes to draw when she's bored because the design clutters her room she asks Ling Zi her maids to throw it away, Ling Zi thought the design was unique and beautiful so she asks permission to give the design to Wu San Bo, Lory easily allowed it but she didn't know Wu San Bo was so delighted he gathers all the craftsmen that worked for Hei Shen to study Lory's design and develop it according to the taste of people in this world and the design was booming!

However, because of its uniqueness Wu San Bo only released a few of the jewelry every sixth month not even royalty could have it without making a reservation beforehand, therefore the price of this one piece of jewelry is exorbitantly high yet the only person who didn't know about this was Lory.

"What amazing jewelry, I've never seen anything like this in my life!" Tao Ji Fang's voice unconsciously rises from excitement.

Tao Bing Wen was also amazed, he looks Lory blankly and then swept his gaze to the whole room, for some reason he feel he was stumbling into a fox demon lair.
