Chapter 746 - Rewards (1/2)
When Zhao Li Xin returned to his yard, he saw Lory busy moving everything in her room to her spatial ring, Lory didn't know when she would return to Gui Hong continent again so she decided to take all her belongings, it was a waste to left all these precious things in an empty Manor.
”You don't have to bring everything, Dear. I have prepared everything in Jing An city, that Brat also prepared a big manor for you so you don't have to be worried” Zhao Li Xin told her but he also didn't stop her if Lory wanted to take everything then let it be since everything in the manor was hers. Zhao Li Xin just made notes. for himself to upgrade the space in Lory's spatial ring.
”I know, but it's a waste to let everything rot in here so I'll bring everything” Lory ticks the jewelry box, then she waved her hand and moved the box inside her ring, she looked at the ring with a smug smile ”I love this ring” she grinned.
”This is just an intermediate level spatial ring, you don't need to like it too much, I will improve the quality, later.” Zhao Li Xin thought Lory was too easy to satisfy, sometimes he wondered if the princess in his world was this sensible? ”Maybe I should add some protective array inside the ring that can be activated when you are unconscious or, and maybe I added a tracking device too so I can find you no matter where you are.” Zhao Li Xin mutter as he immersed in his thought about a better way to protect Lory.
Lory rolled her eyes, ”There is already a protective necklace from you, there is also Mong Yi and other shadow guards following me all the time, you don't need to add another protective array to me, I told you I'm not that weak!”
”I know you are strong, I just want to give myself self-assurance, I hope you don't mind” he stares at Lory with a pleading look.
Lory couldn't argue when Zhao Li Xin looked at her like an abandoned puppy, besides his request was not exaggerated either, Lory and Zhao Li Xin had many powerful enemies outside so it was only natural for him wants to protect her, just like she wanted to protect him.
Not wanting to trouble him any further she chose to obey, Lory then put her arm around his waist and bury her face on his c.h.e.s.t ”Okay, I'm listening to you ...” she said obediently.
”Thank you, don't worry the tracking device will work both ways, you can also track my whereabouts.” Zhao Li Xin adds in, a warm smile on his face as he stroked Lory's head.
”Why don't you put something so women can't get close to you” Lory snorted.
Her possessive words pleased him so much, the mighty God agreed without thinking ”OK!” after all, no one dared to be close to him.
Zhao Li Xin understands that sometimes he can be too protective, for an independent and free-spirited woman like Lory his behavior can be considered unbearable, Zhao Li Xin and Lory are two different people who grew up in two different cultures, with very different backgrounds, moreover, they come from two different worlds it is certain that they will have a lot of differences, and not a few cultural clashes that can cause misunderstanding between them, but luckily Lory has a very m.a.t.u.r.e personality, she is understanding, tolerant and honest, when she is not wanted to reveal something important in her past she would make Zhao Li Xin understand that this was not because she didn't trust him.
Lory not only gave Zhao Li Xin enough respect and trust, while Zhao Li Xin gave Lory space and time to adapt with him. They never impose their d.e.s.i.r.es and thoughts on each other, but rather compromise their differences and try to find a middle ground for their problems, that's why the relationship between Lory and Zhao Li Xin is fairly easy and doesn't have many obstacles.
Of course, the main reason their relationship went smoothly is their undeniable connection between them that not even them could explain.
The door suddenly knocked ”My lord, it's time for us to go” Mong Ki reminded them.
Lory pulled her face from Zhao Li Xin's c.h.e.s.t. ”let's go, I miss that brat!” Lory's eyes filled with warmth as she recalled Ming Yue Yin's pouting face.
”Let's go, then.” Zhao Li Xin became excited as he thought about their upcoming wedding.
Using Lory's carriage and Zhao Li Xin to finally reach the harbor, Lory was amazed to see the black boat leaning majestically on the plinth. Lory almost forgot how big his ship was, when he got out of Lory's carriage she saw Yan Xi Ying running towards her excitedly, ”Lory, I'm so excited to see Yue Yin again, are you the same!” she smiled broadly from ear to ear.
”Yes, I can imagine what kind of fuss she will make when she finds out we are coming.” Lory could already imagine how excited Ming Yue Yin would be, Lory only hoped that ming Yue Yin would not trouble her subordinates too much.
”Oh my, Yue Yin will be so happy when she finds out you will have a wedding party in his Kingdom, I won't be surprised she will use the Imperial main hall to host your wedding.” Yang Xi Ying laughed but deep down she was almost certain that this would happen.
Lory's mouth twitched, no matter how indifferent she was with the custom in this world, she knew better that only the royal family was allowed to use the imperial main hall, if Ming Yue Yin insisted on doing that he would definitely offend many people, and she doesn't want that ”Let's hope, he won't. ”Lory crossed her fingers.
”I don't know what that means .... but, OK!” she made the same gesture with a big smile on her face.
A moment later they heard the sound of horses approaching, the unusual sound caught the attention of the people in the harbor. Not long after, a luxurious carriage escorted by several hors.e.m.e.n and followed by a group of servants and eunuchs came in their direction, the carriage's presence split the crowd at the harbor like a red sea, and when they saw the imperial emblem on the carriage one by one the people kneeling on the ground. every one of them lowered their heads.
