The Princess And The Lord

The next morning Jin Hua hamster suddenly brought another news from Lan Hua, she took the paper and started reading then gradually her eyes widened in shock, the letter told her what happened in the Whispering forest after she left. 

The letter explains that Luo Ri Yi found out that Sanguan Li Ye and Zi Quan Mei were turned into something called a Lesser-Demon. According to Luo Ri Yi, A Lesser-Demon is a human who absorbed some part of a Demon to transform themselves into something similar to the original Demon but less powerful that's why it is called 'Lesser-Demon'

One way to turn themselves is by consuming a portion of the original Demon dark power that the demons left behind inside a relic there also another most effective way to turn oneself which is by consuming the Demon pure blood and after that, they need to make sacrifices as a token to pledged their loyalty to the Demon, the sacrifice must something very important and significant for them, like someone or something they loved dearly.

They also fought another kind of plant monster type that was bigger than two-story buildings, Jin Hua subconsciously bit her thumb out of nervousness, the story was too surreal it was almost like something straight out of folklore, Jin Hua's heart beating faster and faster as she read the letter.

And All those sick people were eventually eaten by the plant monsters, Jin Hua wonders if this Lao Min Na's plan from the start, did she poison all those people just to become monster fodder, why can't she believe it there must be something more right....?

Jin Hua pushed those thoughts to the back of her head for later and then she continued again. The letter said that Jin Kai wasn't involved in the fight, actually, he has already gone even before Wei Zu Tian kidnapped Luo Ri Yi so Lan Hua asked how is Jin Kai doing right now.

Jin Hua pursed her lips and frowned, she thought the relationship between Jin Kai and Lao Min Na was simply a romantic relationship or perhaps one-sided love because Lao Min Na always had hot and cold interactions with Jin Kai on the other hand Jin Kai seemed to be swoon by her.

When Lao Min Na's engagement with Zhao Yi Chen broke up, she thought Jin Kai would propose to Lao Min Na right away, and they would immediately become a 'power couple' or something, however, that's not what happened. Something seems to change, but what and why?

Jin Hua wracked her brain for another ten minutes but she got nothing, well, she's not good at making plans and reading people who think, unlike Jin Hao. The truth is if not for her harsh environment which forced her to be more careful and vigilant she might end up like Su Miou Lin minus her haughty attitude, when she was little Jin Hua was very much like her mother, innocent, pure, bubbly, and a bit slow but luckily she very diligent and doesn't give up once she starts something, that's why Jin Hao likes her, but it's not that Jin Hao only likes smart girls, it's just that Jin Hao likes people who work hard and don't give up easily no matter how hard the situation was, according to Jin Hao those two things are more important than simply being a genius.

That was the reason why Jin Hao liked women like Yuan Xue An, Jin Hua, and Lory because they didn't give up easily despite the odds against them, they didn't waste time crying and pitying themselves instead they faced their problem head-on even though they may not succeed in the end.

Jin Hua sighed with disappointment due to her limited brain, then she continued reading the letter at the end of Lan Hua's letter saying that Lord Bei Li Yan and Jin Hao would be coming soon. Jin Hua narrowed his eyes then he reread the last sentence again….as soon as it hit him, Bei Li Yan was coming – he was coming – he was coming here!

Jin Hua inhaled a cold breath, and his whole face turned bright red he could feel nonexistent smoke burst from the top of her head, Jin Hua pressed the letter against her face and muffled a scream because she was too excited she fell from the arhat chair straight to the floor. Jin Hua then quickly got up and looked around her warily, luckily no one saw her only her hamster staring at her as if she was crazy.

Jin Hua snorted at the innocent hamster and then she continued to reread the letter again just to make sure she didn't read it wrong as soon as a happy smile spread across her face.

'Bei Li Yan is coming'

Jin Hua's head was filled with words about Bei Li Yan's arrival, unfortunately, she forgot that Jin Hao was also coming. Luckily Jin Hua didn't forget to burn the letter after she finishes reading it, jin Hua then kneeled in front of the furnace watching the letter burn then she touched her cheek which felt hot but she wasn't sure it was because of the furnace or something else, suddenly Bei Li Yan's playful smile crossed her mind and Butterflies fluttered in her stomach instantly her face felt hotter.

Jin Hua patted her cheek then she took a deep breath to calm herself down. Jin Hua is not so dense not to know what this feeling means but Jin Hua had no confidence to confess her feeling to Bei Li Yan. 

Jin Hua had always felt like an outsider even in her own clan she didn't have a good background since her mother is only a concubine unlike Jin Hao her talent is only slightly above average, mostly everything she achieves right now because of her being diligent or simply a stroke of luck. 

Meanwhile, Bei Li Yan was the king of the Red Vermilion palace, his talent was known to be one of the best in the world and as the leader of the legendary palace, he was very smart, shrewd and he got good foresight in reading every situation, so he could manipulate and control the information that spread in the society. if that wasn't enough to make Jin Hua lose her confidence Bei Li Yan also have impeccable beauty that could mesmerize any men and women, Bei Li Yan demeanor was graceful, elegant although he was a little bit effeminate however, in her eyes, Bei Li Yan behavior did not diminish his masculinity, although Jin Hua had seen many handsome men in his life yet no one could move her heart like Bei Li Yan, unfortunately, she felt insecure in front of Bei Li Yan.

Jin Hua took a deep breath she was happy with Bei Li Yan's arrival but he also felt nervous in worry that if Bei Li Yan found out about her feelings he would stay away from him or worst he might think she is just like any other brazen woman who wants to seduce him, Jin Hua felt a pang in his heart she shook her head profusely to get rid of all his stupid thoughts.

Jin Hua didn't want to be hated besides she also didn't have time for this, since she had more important matters to solve and that's why Bei Li Yan and her Brother come so she cannot be distracted, moreover, she didn't think Bei Li Yan would appreciate if she messed things up. 

After Jin Hua collected her thoughts, she returned to the arhat chair while contemplating her next moves, She know that she needed more information about Jin Kai and figure out his plan with Fifth Elder, perhaps if she approached Su Miou Lin she would find out more about Jin Kai plan.

The following day Jin Hua decided to visit Su Miou Lin at the Su residence as soon as she came she was greeted with Su Feng anxious face, The young man stood in front of the front gate appeared immersed in his thought, he lift his head when he hears Jin Hua fooftstep then he looked surprised to see Jin Hua walk towards him, "Miss Xiao?" 

Jin Hua bowed her head politely "Good morning Young Master Su, I came to visit Miss Su, is she at home? I hope I will not bother her for coming unannounced." Jin Hua looks a bit nervous.

Su Feng immediately hid his concern and changed his expression to a warm smile, "Oh, of course not, but it's a shame that Lin'er is....Uhm," he suddenly held back his words, then suddenly his eyes glint "Wait...I think Lin'er would be happy to meet you!"

"Oh..." Jin Hua slightly narrowed her eyes curiously, why did she feel there was something more in Su Feng's tone, it seemed that something had happened.

Su Feng then turned to one of the maids "Told young miss that miss Xiao is coming to visit"

The maid nodded in understanding then she rushed into the inner builder, Jin Hua thought the maid was a bit too excited, something must have happened with Su Miou Lin.

Su Feng then turned his head towards Jin Hua again "Miss Xiao if you don't mind why I don't show you our main garden, I guarantee you won't disappoint" the corners of his eyes crinkle, and a gentle smile blooms in his face.

"You make me curious, please lead the way Young master Su" Jin Hua replied with a big smile.

Deep down she wondered why Su Feng welcome her so warmly.. Although Su Feng was known to be kind and courteous to everyone, however, Su Feng was a man who always maintained his behavior and manners, especially with women he used to keep his distance from the opposite sex so he doesn't accidentally incite bad rumors that could ruin his and the woman reputation also he doesn't want to make the women misunderstood his behavior, therefore, Jin Hua curious with Su Feng sudden friendliness.
