Chapter Title: A Journey to Remember (2)

Chapter no. 18

(Qin Zetian's POV)

The journey went fine and we arrived safely to our destination. The market and my home has a good distance apart since large families aren't usually situated near crowded places. But with all the greens and the living things you'll pass on the way, you'll finally understand what it means to live in the present. And why we strive to keep ourselves alive.

”Young miss everyone is already seated at the ballroom hall as you instructed”

”Thank you for your hard work shopkeeper Sheng, please tell the kitchen to serve the dishes”

Shopkeeper Sheng is one of my trusted aids in running this massive restaurant. He is well versed in accounting works and management. He is one of my father's people and butler Zhang highly placed his recommendation on him. So I'll assume that he works efficiently.

”The food will be a surprise right?” Princess Roushi's eyes never failed to twinkle when food is mentioned

”Yes your highness it will be a surprise, so let's head over. Everyone must be waiting for us.”

She nodded and we climb the staircase.

When we arrived at the room each of the guests has a surprised face. The room is wide and well decorated. The marbled-floor is specially made so it sparkles like you walking on a mirror. The open sliding-glass windows let the cool breeze greet its visitors. The ceiling has large customized-chandeliers and light illuminating stones that is comparable to the stars that twinkles in the sky. The concrete walls were painted in the lightest shade of green that looks so soft. And the red carpet at the stage looks so fluffy that will make you want to roll on it.

The curtains were embroidered in floral patterns. And the tables have marble tops, the chairs have foam pads on each of the seats and the dining wares are made out of the finest glassware and stainless steel. There are table napkins and chopsticks too. The people around me are incredibly amazed by the western idea that I have, mixed with traditional Chinese table setting, and the usage of most architectural ideas from the modern world. Even I did not think that this is possible.
