54 Chapter 55 “Fairy and Fox“
At first, the camuflage horse felt uncomfortable as he was usually a free and wild horse but suddenly now he was turned into a docile horse mount. He wasn't running fast and the rough way in the forest was hurting Li Shi Ying butt.
But later, camuflage horse adapted quite fast so there wasn't any problem aside from Li Shi Ying complain about her butt jolting and her stomach felt unwell.
Because of Shi Ying weak body, their party couldn't move really fast and the supposed thirty minutes journey turned into half an hour.
The Li 'siblings' arrived at the capital at 11.30 A.M. They immediately set off to find an inn first before eating lunch.
Not far from Jiu Wei and Li Shi Ying, a streak of shadow could be seen. The shadow was already there and no one even detect his presence.
The two of them, Jiu Wei and Li Shi Ying had already forgot that there was one person who always followed them since they depart from the grave forest.
It was the youngest shadow guard left behind by Long Ao Zhen. He was skillful enough to completely followed Jiu Wei and Li Shi Ying without them knowing.
The shadow guard followed them to the inn in silence.
After settling for two room in the inn, Jiu Wei took Li Shi Ying to have lunch.
The restaurant they choose was close to the inn and was one of the most famous restaurant in capital city of Qiu Country.
It was already 12 A.M afternoon which was also lunch time. The restaurant was very very busy when the two of them came in.
When Jiu Wei and Li Shi Ying entered the restaurant, quite a few people looked at them. Of course it was because the two of them looked very elegant yet mysterious.
Jiu Wei handsome face and his nice style of dressing instanly attracted young women eyes in the restaurant.
Whereas Li Shi Ying who was walking slowly beside Jiu Wei attracted a lot of man interest. After all she was wearing a veil and only her eyes could be seen.
Li Shi Ying played her character as a 'sickly young lady' really well. Her movement was elegant and people could easily knew that the girl must be a noble lady.
Jiu Wei looked around the first floor of the restaurant with a smile on his face. As expected all the table on the first floor was occupied.
A waiter came forward and bowed slightly to Jiu Wei as he said "Young master, there is still place in second floor, please follow this servant"
Jiu Wei nodded and turned his head to Li Shi Ying signaling her to walk in front of him.
Li Shi Ying also nodded her head and followed the waiter closely. When she walked, the cloak on her body fluttered gently and every step she made was silent.
She was as elegant as a lotus. Even though her face was slightly pale and she looked like a frail young lady, Li Shi Ying walked with her head high and her back straight, showing a bit of noble lady arrogant air.
A few people whispered when Li Shi Ying passed by them.
"That lady was so mysterious! Her step was light like she was walking on air."
"Yeah yeah she looked like a fairy!"
"Is it only me or you guys also want to snatch her veil?"
"Hum. Unfortunately we can't see her face! She must be very beautiful!"
Li Shi Ying heard those words of praises but she didn't even smile. She kept walking unhurriedly toward the second floor as if she and Jiu Wei was the only one inside the restaurant.
Her aura was aloof but gentle at the same time making people became more and more curious. The veil on her face added a sense of elegance and mystery. Li Shi Ying entire being very much resemble a gentle yet aloof fairy in heaven, as if she wasn't a part of this mortal world.
Jiu Wei was also became an object of young ladies attention. The smile on his face was flirty like a playboy. He would also occasionaly winked at several ladies whom he met.
With a fan on his hand, Jiu Wei sometimes opened his blue fan elegantly and covered his mouth like a noble young master always did.
His smile was very similar with a cunning fox. His eyes flashed with a sly thought. He looked relaxed and playful yet people could tell that this man wasn't that simple.
When Jiu Wei walked, the green jade pendant on his waist swayed a little following his movement making his entire being more handsome than any man inside the restaurant.
Jiu Wei skin was white and smooth coupled with his unusual silver hair, he looked like a fox deity descended from immortal world.
The two of them, Jiu Wei and Li Shi Ying looked very good together like a pair of real siblings. One looked like a fox prince while the other looked like a fairy
