”Brother Zai! Brother Zai!” A soft voice filled with immature softness but a perfect amount of sweetness echoed.
”Wha…?” A young man laying on a bed struggled to remain asleep, but the pressure on his abdomen was too suffocating. Looking about, a girl aged ten or eleven was striding his abdomen like a bull, but her fists were smashing onto his chest. It gave him no sense of comfort, but just pain.
”Get off,” he demanded softly.
”No! Brother Zai, you must get up! You must!” The little girl was insistence, unwilling to relent and even increasing the strength of his blows. If the young man was a normal person, he'd likely have died by now.
”Why? Why?! Why?!!” Annoyed, he couldn't help but shout, but it didn't help as his breathing was a little too heavy due to the lack of air in his lungs. 'I swear, if you weren't my little sister, I'd chuck you off the side of Meteor Cliff.'
”Sister Ya is arriving in an hour, you must get ready!”
”What?!” Those words were like a boom in his head, waking him up to complete clarity. ”That's today?” Without hesitation, he pushed the little girl aside, but softly onto the bed, and got up. ”Why didn't you wake me sooner?!”
With hastiness obvious in his movements, he checked his spatial bags filled with various outfits laid on the dresser. Each drawer contained various colored spatial bags filled with clothes, shoes, socks, and even accessories.
The young girl smiled mischievously before pouting as if she was wronged, ”I tried! But you're just too lazy, hmph. I hope she sees you for being lazy!” The little girl condemned the young man before dashing off, hiding her snicker behind her hand.
Rolling his eyes, the young man no longer bothered with the little girl, only contemplating how to suit up for the event today. After all, today was the day Ya Qinqan, the heiress of the Ya Clan, was coming to the Yan Clan. He had to make a good impression.
This young man had beautifully amber-gold eyes, but an average countenance, and slim physique. When he turned to the mirror beside his bed, he smiled softly. ”Yan Zaizen, you will definitely win the hand of her. You got this.”
After thirty minutes of intense decision-making that strained his nerves, Yan Zaizen finally found an outfit. It was an azure outfit befitting a noble. He had a few golden rings on his fingers and golden robe over his outfit. It truly screamed that he had wealth and status.
Yan Zaizen belonged to the Yan Clan, which was the number one merchant clan within Meteorite City. He was the grandson of the clan head and son of the next heir. With this line of succession, he'll definitely become the next head and hold the entire clan's fortune in his hand.
The best part, he was engaged to the Ya Clan heiress who was the number one beauty of Meteorite City. Not only was her beauty at the apex, but so was her cultivation talent amongst her peers. With her by his side, with the money his clan possesses, they could ascend to the sky together in with leap!
Briskly walking towards the entry room, Yan Zaizen held his chin high and his posture straight, exuding supreme confidence and haughtiness. In his mind, only someone with their eyes within the clouds could attract the attention of someone like Ya Qinqan.
As he entered the room, he heard a soft chuckle followed by an outrageous and uncontrollable laughter.
”Hahahahaha! Look at you! Such a silk-pants, such a Yan Zaizen! With your nose so high, I wonder if you can smell your ugliness!” The little girl, Yan Zaizen's little sister, said in a fit of laughter and disdain.
Startled, Yan Zaizen turned towards this little munchkin of a girl and glared. He, Yan Zaizen, was not ugly! With a flourish of his sleeves, he ignored the girl's scathing words. Today was his day. Today was the day he'll meet his future bride. Who cares about this girl's stinky voice?
”I, Yan Linzen, will never be with someone like you.” Sticking her tongue out, Yan Linzen was merciless with her words.
”Who would want to be with someone like you, huh?! You little munchkin!” He flourished his sleeve once more as if shoo'ing a pest.
”Hmph, acting all powerful but still don't realize your worth.” With those words, she left from wherever she was, bringing Yan Zaizen some peace and quiet.
”I'll prove my worth, I definitely will.”
A few minutes passed.
”I wonder what I should say…”
Thirty minutes passed.
”It's almost time.” Yan Zaizen brushed his robe down, making sure no speck of dust or lint was left. ”I have to look proper.” As he said this, a figure emerged from the residence. This was a old man with grey hair and a grey goatee. His eyes was vibrant and his back stood straight like a young warrior.
”Young Master?” With a slight brow raised, he asked.
”Uncle Grey,” briefly acknowledging, Yan Zaizen kept his mind focused on the entrance awaiting Ya Qinqan's arrival.
”Young Master, if you're waiting for Miss Ya, you're about three hours too early…” Knowing the personality of this sixteen year old young boy, Uncle Grey reminded before warily smiling.
”...” Yan Zaizen turned towards Uncle Grey as if he had heard wrong, ”three hours?” Uncle Grey nodded.
