30 LingLing Part Two (1/2)
LingLing used her ability to create fragrances, andrefined the essence of that first mountain lily and still wears that scent to this day. Her infatuation is unknown even to her brother.
She is waiting until she becomes the Cloud Mountain Sect Leader to share her true feelings to Feng Tian. She wants to feel she is his equal even though she is not of noble birth. Right now it is taking all her internal energy to suppress her killing intent.
She immediately has the an urge to kick that girl off the chair and take Yun Tai's coat from her but restrains herself. She needs to maintain the image Feng Tian has of her as a compassionate woman.
”Feng Tian where did you go with her, did you show her the Cherry Blossom Grove it is so very beautiful this time of year.”LingLing is interested in where they might have been until this hour. Zhang Yu is wondering the same thing.
While they are engaged in conversation XiXi is peacefully snoring. They all look over at her curled up like a cat, covered in that oversized coat. Each one has their own reaction to the sounds that she is making.
LingLing breathes a sigh of relief there is no way Feng Tian would like a girl that makes those sounds. She sounds like a Sloth Boar from the Lowlands.
Zhang Yu is wondering if she had wine, the only time at home she ever snores is after a wedding banquet when she has several glasses of wine. He shoots a look at Feng Tian.
This house has an array formation around it which prevents his low level of magic to see what is going on throughout to its perimeters.
Feng Tian thinks she looks cute with her hair draped on the back of the chair and her little hands barely peeking out from the sleeves of the coat. Her pink lips are parted and you can see her breath.
Although he has never heard a girl snore, it's funny he laughs to himself. He remembers all the wine she had consumed and feels a bit guilty.
Zhang Yu interrupts their thoughts when he says, ”Since Miss Yun is back may I put XiXi in the third room down the hall? I noticed it was empty and he bows to Yun LingLing, I appreciate you and your brother's hospitality and will repay your kindness one day.”
She responds, ”Yes, that would be fine, that room faces the morning sun though will that bother her. It shines through the windows very early there.” She is marveling at her ability to sound concerned.
”There are extra covers in the fourth drawer of the large wooden dresser with the swans carved on it.
”Many thanks Miss Yun, I'm sure it will be very comfortableshe needs to get up early to study” Zhang Yu hopes she will able to begin her lessons they don't have much time and today was wasted
He walks over to pick up XiXi when Feng Tian steps in front of him and says ”Please allow me to carry her for you, you must be still be recuperating from your trip here”
Both Zhang Yu and Yun LingLing stare at Feng Yian.
Zhang Yu is the first to speak, ”Feng Tian I have recovered quite nicely and will take my daughter to her room.” He is starting to be concerned about Feng Tian's interest in his daughter.
Although they appear about the same agethey are from two different worlds and he doesn't want XiXi to be entangled here. Zhang Yu wants to complete this assignment and rush home. XiXi attracts the bees and the butterflies wherever she goes, he shakes his head.
LingLing looks at Feng Tian and thinks she detects he has some interest in this girl, why would he offer to carry her? It is inappropriate for a man to carry a woman like that.
After Zhang Yu leaves with XiXi Feng Tian feels LingLing's eyes staring at him with an intense gaze and quickly looks around to make sure they are gone and says , ”Zhang Yu just awoke from me hitting his accupoint , he was asleep for two and a half days and one the after effects is his legs can give out at any time.
I can't go into detail but he is unaware of this. I was merely concerned carrying her they might get injured if this happens {Feng Tian you are turning into quite the liar}. They are leaving on a journey in seven days and I was concerned for them.
”They are staying here for seven more days?” LingLing
”Yes, then we are leaving”, Feng Tian
LingLing is really starting to not like those two intruders., ”Why are you going with them? Where?
Feng Tian doesn't really feel like going into detail right now , seriously it is none of her business and he is getting annoyed. She should just worry about becoming Sect Leader, it has been her dream for many years.
