"Lory look up to the ceiling, her mind still wonders in her past it took a while for her to differentiate which one is real and which one is a dream, Lory takes a deep breath as she messaged her forhead. Her dream becomes more vivid every day but why, why she suddenly dream about her mother more and more, she dreams about her mother more in this world than in verrion, but for what reasoned, what she wants to tell her…. 'My Sun and my Moon' why she keeps hearing that?

"Bad dream?"

Lory startled, she jolted on her bed but then relief when she sees the handsome man walk towards her from behind the screen divider, but then she surprised again "Li Xin why are you here, should you be hiding for a few days"

"I'm….I'll be hiding here" he said casually as its norm.

"You what? Is it safe?" Lory has a sudden urge to hit Zhao Li Xin's head and see what inside his head. what if someone watching her, the Sacred Mountain peak is in big turmoil everyone is watching each other, what if someone caught them and their good plan become useless and went down the drain.

He shrugs his shoulder nonchalantly "I will stay whenever I want to stay, who can't stop me?"

"No one apparently" Lory chuckles as she rolls her eyes, such arrogant man but why she can't hate him.she smile foolishly at herself, he really unlike her father and yet she fell in love deeply with him, her mother is right, that just not how love works.

"I thought you have a bad dream but now you smile on your own" Zhao Li Xin takes a seat on the side bed, you keep mumbling incoherently while you are sleeping.

Perhaps she talks in Harland language so he doesn't understand it "Is not a bad dream, it just….I dream about my family again"

"Oh…" at this time Zhao Li Xin didn't know how to comfort her as someone who didn't understand family loved he was oblivious how Lory feel right now but he knew he must comfort her somehow "Uhm, don't be sad…" he awkwardly said while patting her head gently.

His awkward moves bring smiles on her face and she does feel better "Thank you…you always know how to make me feel better" lory gratefully smiles.

Meanwhile, Zhao Li Xin was stunned 'I do?'

"Okay, I take a bath and have breakfast afterward!" Lory jump from the bed then runs to the bathroom. Leaving the confused Lord at the room. Zhao Li Xin frowned for a moment then he shifts his glance to Girsha who nestled on the small comfy pillow on the small table on the corner.

"You think I'll help her?" he asked Girsha even though he knew the bird will not reply.

Girsha blinks her eyes then he nods his small head [You are…]

He smiles warmly as his gaze becomes soft, other than Lory he might only show this kinda expression to Girsha, maybe because he knows, Girsha is more than just a pet for her, he hated to admit it but Girsha position in Lory's heart is unreplaceable. And for him as long lory love it he would love it too as long is not another man, of course.

When lory finishes her bath Zhao Li Xin already brew her warm 'Sun citrus' tea, Lory taste bud is like four years old she can't drink or eat anything bitter including Jin Hao medicine, her face flushed when she smells the tea scent.

"Have a seat, I will dry your hair" Zhao Li Xin gently push her to sit in front of dresser mirror, he gently massaged her scalp with a warm towel, it feel so comfortable Lory begin to relax. 

"Last night Xie Hua Ling and Mo Ning Yuan are having a meeting in her courtyard" Zhao li Xin said calmly as if it was nothing.

"The Mo family now is only an empty shell, is no surprised anyone can get in and out easily especially someone with high cultivator like Xie Hua Ling, it's must be like walking in a park for him" Lory have long understood the situation of Mo family, it such a pitty from one strong family fallen to this miserable situation.

"Why Xie Hua Ling meeting with her? I don't think Mo Ning Yuan has anything to offer?" Lory was baffled by this weird news.

Zhao Li Xin has finished drying her hair and now he combs her hair while muttering "Who knows, it seems they have a strong connection, I don't understand what are they thinking?" there is a certain part of man and woman relationship he still can't understand, is about a tug and pull between them and the complex feeling between lover he always failed to understand.

When it comes to feeling, Zhao Li Xin doesn't like to make things complicated, if he wants her to be with him then he would be honest and truthful to her, he will not act tough or play hard-to-get, Zhao Li Xin method to court Lory also very simple it was 'he will always be there' 

He will be there when she sad, he will be there when she lonely, he will be there when she was hurt. She would never have to look too far for him or make excuses to meet him because he will always be there. Zhao Li Xin doesn't like play mind games with Lory, that is the only thing he does to other people but not her.

It's a simple method but very effective and yet it's so hard to do, especially for anyone who have overbearing and tyrant tendency like a young master from an influential family.

"Maybe they find comfort t each other?" Lory shrugs her shoulder.

"Comfort?" he remains puzzled.

"All their lives they hiding a secret, a secret that gives them shammed, disgusted and pain, I think they must be tortured by their own secret. I think they feel suffocated and they need someone who will not condemn them, someone who will not squint their eyes in disgust when they show their rotten side, maybe that's the reason" Lory watched Zhao Li Xin Frowning face with amused smiles "You can say bird of the same feather flock together"

Zhao Li Xin finish briding her hair as his eyebrows remain knotted together "I don't fully understand but I think I know what you mean"

"What I don't understand is, where is Mo Ning Yuan side herself with?" Lory prop her chin with her palm "Is it mo family, Xie Hua Ling, Xie Xian Zi, or perhaps other people we didn't know of?" Lory shakes her head confusedly.

"I just have new information from Mong Gui, the Chen family who was involved with Mo Ning Yuan is turn out to be Chen Hu Yin" Zhao Li Xin said indifferently as his concentration fix on Lory's hair.

"Chen Hu Yin? The brother of Chen Yi Suan? The supporter of Xie Xian Zi?" Lory rains him with questions. She can't believe another influential man will be entangled with Mo Ning Yuan again.

"That's the one…" Zhao Li Xin answers nonchalantly. He smiles faintly after he has done styling Lory's hair.

"What is she thinking, why she keeps everyone under her toes, what does she want?" Lory was dumbfounded as she lost what Mo Ning Yuan's motive is. She wants to believe she just wants to increase her cultivation by sleeping with all these powerful men but is that all or she have another sinister plan is it something related to Lazarus?

"I know what are you thinking" Zhao Li Xin holds her from behind "Don't worry I wouldn't let anything happened to you?" he said softly as he whispers on her ear. 

His warmed embrace calmed her down, but from now on she becomes more vigilant than ever, something is brewing under her nose he can feel bad premonition dawned to her future, but is not her she worry about, but the beautiful man who was embracing her now. She almost can feel the snake mark on her nape become as cold as ice.

"Lory, everything is going to be okay," he thought Lory is anxious for Mo Ning Yuan hurt her so he tightens his embraces to reassured her "I will never let anything happened with you, I will not make the same mistake again"

Lory weakly smiles "I know….."

'And so am I'
