While Zhao Li Xin and Mong Ki were in a deep discussion Lory follow by Mong Yi walk to the first floor, then suddenly a lot of people gather and they look to the first floor, Lory thought there's an event on the first floor cause everyone look with enthusiast. Then Lory surprised by a woman shouted.
"How can you be so shameless!"
Lory exchanged a glance with Mong Ki, Lory sigh because her misconception about women in this world when the first time she came to this world people said women from a noble family is gentle and demure because they had been strictly educated to be that way, they have a personal tutor to behave gracefully and poise.
But why all noble ladies she met are shameless, brute and cruel, do they skip the lesson why the education didn't work, why they all acted like a shrewd?
"Shameless, I think is more appropriated to describe you miss Zhuang" another voice was heard, she didn't shout but her voice is clearly heard by everyone and why lory thought the voice is familiar.
"For a woman who dares to seduced someone husband, other than shameless I don't know anything else to described it" the woman with light orchid purple color hanfu stand gracefully, her face is small and delicate she looks very beautiful and exuded noble aura is easy to guess that she must be a noble daughter.
The other woman is staring with bloodshot eyes and her nosed flare as anger erupted within her, the woman wears lavish pink hanfu with gold embroidery, she has intricated hairstyles and gold hairpin with long diamond tassel. The woman is beautiful and probably still very young but the heavy make up she wear is ruined her beauty.
"It because you seduced him, do you know we are childhood sweetheart and we had been promised to each other if not because you seduced him when I'm not around how could you marry him!" she stomped her feet and her tassel make sounds follow her body moves.
A few men murmur to each other, turn out this a fight between the wife and childhood sweetheart, whoever that man is, he is very fortunate to be fought by two beautiful women, if it's them, they would take the other women as concubines or second wife to solve the problem. Lory who hears the men talk in front of can't help but frown in disgust, she struggles not to kick the men off from the second floor.
The other women with Purple orchid dress sigh "If he really loves you how can he easily be seduced, and don't malign me miss Zhuang, I never seduced Brother him nor I force him to marry me, besides if I know he already has someone I will never accept him no matter how good he is to me" she said calmly, the lady didn't sound arrogant but instead honest and firm.
"Tch, you dare to lie" the other women scoffed, she would never believe her, which women let go a good man just because he had another woman if women like then no one become concubines anymore "You know it now, will you leave him now?" she raised her chin arrogantly.
The lady remains calm but anger is apparent in her eyes "Depends, do you want me to leaves you brother Li" she shifts her glance to the man who just enters from the front door.
"Xi Ying!" The man dash towards his wife "What do you mean leaving me, don't make a joke like that" he squeezes his wife's hand, the man stares at his beautiful wife anxiously.
Then he glares at the woman who proclaimed to be his childhood sweetheart "Miss Zhuang, why are you slandering my name, when we are a kid we only met twice and at that time we barely spoke to each other and when we just meet again last year and it's only once.
There's no promise between us, your family does talk about it with my teacher but my teacher had politely rejected it so there's nothing between us and honestly, I don't remember about you so how come you came here and provoke my wife!"
"Bro….Brother Li, don't say like that I…" the woman's lips tremble and her eyes moist with tears, she didn't expect his beloved man would reject her openly and didn't gives her a face at all, this is no better than being slapped in public.
"Miss Zhuang, please don't call me brother, we are not that close" He glare at her with utter disgust.
The people who watch them was shocked, turn out the man didn't know about this so-called 'Childhood sweetheart' so it's only a self-proclaimed, they never thought this woman was so shameless, she even dares to lie in front of the man wife, no wonder that man is furious.
"Isn't that lady is Zhuang Li Yu, the first daughter of master Zhuang Mu Tao?"
"She is, I thought she is a kind and gentle lady, who knew she can be so shameless"
"Too bad she is so beautiful though…."
"First master Zhuang must be very shammed if she knew about this"
"I bet he is!"
People whisper to each other but it's still clearly heard, Lory cannot see the people they talk about and she become curious, she tries to tiptoe but she is too short, Mong Yi feel bad for his young madam then he orders the other shadow guard to push people away so Lory could join the commotion. People were annoyed being push away but when they saw the men with dark uniform and menacing face they swallow their dissatisfaction and moves away.
Lory feel sorry for other people when the shadow guard make a wide space for two people to enter, Lory smiles awkwardly but didn't want to waste the shadow guard effort for her. Lory holds the railing to look down and she's stunned.
The woman name Zhuang Li Yu bites her lips in indignant and her face turns crimson, she has never been humiliated like this before. She is the respectful lady from the Zhuang family who dares to provoke her, this is the first time she tastes these awful experiences suddenly she becomes tongue-tied.
"Li Yu!" a shouted from the front door startled everyone, Lory stare at the front door the man with dark blue robes enter the scene he has a handsome face and dignified aura, he is followed by two strong bodyguards behind him. the man looks arrogant and pompous, everyone could smell the brewing trouble for the couple husband and wife.
'What a dramatic entrance!' Lory almost clapped his hands, watch this situation multiple times make Lory understand why so many armament masters never think to created television or radio for entertainment, it must be because they already got full reality show every day! Lory bends her waist then cross her arms on the railing and watch the show eagerly, her enthusiast unconsciously rubs on Mong Yi.
"Young madam, that is Zhuang Bao Jie, he is Zhuang Mu Tao son and Zhuang Li Yu older brother" Mong Yi lay the background without being question.
Of course, Lory didn't mind "Who is Zhuang Mu Tao?"
"He is the first Son of Zhuang Zhen Yu the head of Zhuang family clan, they are number one family in Shan Hu city, you can say they owned this city," said Mong Yi again.
"Oh, not bad" Lory pursed her lips as she make a nonchalant comments.
The man who stands not far from Lory and Mong Yi suddenly chimed in "Missus, you must be careful, the Zhuang family is not someone you can trifle with" he kindly reminds them. From lory words, the man knew lory is not from the city so he thought he better gives her advance reminder.
Mong Yi faces turning dark as he cursed in his mind 'FU*K Zhuang family, my lady could mess with whoever she likes!'
Lory accept the kind gesture from the man then she make friendly smiles "Oh, thank you for the reminder sir"
The man sighs in relief, he saw Lory is a young woman although she seems like from rich family because the way she dresses and has so many bodyguards in her side but still provokes the Zhuang family is not a good idea. He thought Lory is a sensible young woman but then Lory's next action make his heart drop to the ground.
Lory look down she props her chin and smiles "You should stop pouting Xi Ying, it wasted your beauty"
A sudden voice from upstairs stunned everyone and suddenly the room becomes pin-drop silent. Yang Xi Ying startled she lookup in motion, on the second floor a woman leans on the railing, she leisurely prop her chin and grins widely at her. Yang Xi Ying beamed her damp mood suddenly lifted then she exclaimed in joy "Ri Yi!"
Lory giggles then wave her hand "Hello beautiful"
People might consider Lory greeting is impolite but for Yang Xi Ying who already immune with Lory and Ming Yue Yin antic she didn't bother at all, in fact, she is amused, on the other hand, Li Mo Zhen can only chuckle because he also knew Lory odd behavior but he doesn't mind because he knew Lory didn't imply anything and afterall Lory is his benefactor.
"Miss Luo is nice to meet you again" Li Mo Zhen expression turn warmed when he greets Lory.
"Master Li, I never thought you would be so popular" Lory teased him then she glances at Zhuang Li Yu who stare at her like Lory stole money right from her pouch. Lory who likes teased people only aggravatedZhuang Li yu by nudged Mong Yi and said "I think she doesn't like me…" she covers her pointing with her other hand which is useless because everyone can see who she's pointing at.
