30 Offers, again! (2/2)
”Haha! Then you should choose my sister. She'll be a really unique wife. She's strong, she can protect herself so she won't be a trouble! Although she seems rough, but she's really funny and easily cries from really weird things!” Sir Ryker said and happily laughed as she mentioned her sister. I looked at Lady Reenste. From a dumbstruck expression, her face became red then laughed out loud.
”You guys...” She tried to speak but then laughed. The three guys looked at each others then laughed with Lady Reenste.
”I was offered like this way too. I find it funny. I appreciate it don't worry. I'll keep that words in mind.” Lady Reenste said and laughed full of happiness. I just smiled at the sight. Lady Reenste despite in disguise looked really great.
Maybe that's why this three guys are now dazed looking at the Lady.
”Hey! Let's just drink!” I said and offered them more booze. Let's just get this over with. Lady Reenste seems to be going over her tolerance.

Lady Reenste gave me her pouch to pay up for the foods and drinks, but I just hold it off and used the money given to me by the Lord to use in cases like this. We left the tavern where the three young master was taken by their servants. They were knocked down by drinking too much. While Lady Reenste is still awake but not much in her calm self. She's rather talkative.
”Hey Hue.” She said then poked my cheeks.
I have her in front of me on my horse. While the things she bought was carried by her horse. Then her horse lead is tied to mine so it'll follow me as we go back to the palace.
”Yes?” I answered her as she keeps on poking my face.
”You know it's me, right?” I looked at her a bit caught off guard. She looked at me straight with her serious face, although she's a bit red from her drinking too much.
”Don't lie. I'll punch you.” She said threateningly and glared at me. I just laughed because I think that she's really cute... I'm dead if my Lord would hear me say that.
”Yes, Lady Reenste. I indeed know.” I confessed and then just turned my attention to the way nearing the gate. The sun now is almost setting and the lamps are lit to light the way.
”Erden told you to guard me?” She asked softly. I nodded. Well, the Lord did told me to just silently observed you from a far. But I guess that's really impossible for this lady who goes out carefree.
”Why does he do things like this...” she said languidly. .
”Do you hate, my lord that much?” I can't help myself not to ask. Since she seem to refuse my lord.
”No!” Lady Reenste laughed. ”More likely so I like him, more than I should.” Lady Reenste said laughing.

Wait. Did Lady Reenste just....
------------------
In Shen Courtyard.
Before the sun have set, Master Zuo's assistant have arrived the place.
”Where's Lady Reenste?” Master Zuo's assistant asked. Rory and the five children was nervous as the assistant looked at them.
”My Lady went to the market place to buy some clothes and things she wanted, Sir.” Rory said in all courage he can muster.
”Alone?” The Assistant said looking at the kids with sharo glint.
”No sir. With a guard with the Lady.” Agni is the one who answered this time.
”Very well. Relay this message from Master Zuo.” The Assistant said then handed Rory an envelope.
”This... is?” Rory asked and looked at the assistant in confusion. The Assistant glared at Rory which made Rory cower and step back.
”None of your business. Just tell Lady Reenste that the deadline is two weeks.” The assistant said and leave the receiving area and got on a carriage.
As the kids were confused, other Lady's that are part of the Consort Selection, have received a same envelope. As they read it, they realized it's the start of the selection process and they only have two weeks to accomplish it.
Then there's Reenste who's sleeping so carefree on front where Hue balances her not to fall of the horse.
