Chapter 548 - Something Brewing in The Sky

Zhao Li Xin has back from the mystique realm, but he doesn't found Lory in his cabin, the cabin is not big so he only needed to sweep the room in one glance to realizes his beloved wife and the princess isn't there. Zhao Li Xin exit the room he came to the front desk and found Mong Ki behind the ship wheel.

"Where's Lory?" 

Mong Ki shift the wheel to his assistant then walk towards Zhao Li Xin then bow his head "Madam is in Empress bedroom, they are sleeping together tonight"

A flash of annoyance frankly shows on his face, without saying anything he takes long strides to Ming Yue Yin cabin. Mong Ki and Mong Yi exchanged glance because their Lord not even bothers how and when Ming Yue Yin gets on the ship. Oh well, everything is rendered to nothing in front of his wife so they not shocked anymore.

In front of the cabin Ming Yue Yin subordinates guard the door, they immediately straighten their back and cup their fist courteously when they saw Zhao Li Xin walks towards them.

"Lord Long Ming" they greet simultaneously.

"Wake up your master!" he said without further ado.

They look at each other in hesitant, they don't want to bother their empress rest but the man in front of them is not someone they can trifles not even their Empress dare to provoke this mad man.

"Please wait, milord" Su Yi is finally made a decision, she bow her head then carefully open the door before she enters the room. Other people would think Zhao Li Xin's behavior is unacceptable but for anyone who knows his temperament thinks the other way, is good enough for Zhao Li Xin to respect the boundaries between man and woman, is good enough he holds himself from kick Ming Yue Yin bedroom door to get his wife.

In this conservative world where there a strict rule between man and woman who is not married, one of the rule is man and woman cannot meet privately without an escort, even brother and sister cannot stay in the same courtyard, that's why is unacceptable for Zhao Li Xin if he accidentally saw Ming Yue Yin in her sleeping robes.

Ming Yue Yin might be brazen but even she would not accept that kind of behavior and if she's angry there is high chance Lory would also angry with him and so Zhao Li Xin maintains his courtesy.

The door suddenly opens, Ming Yue Yin bobbed her head with half-open eyes "Uncle, what's wrong?"

"I'm going to pick up Lory, so excuse me" This time he let himself enter the room before Ming Yue Yin could say anything. 

Ming Yue Yin has a sit on the chair, her arms rest on the armrest, and withstand her chin with her palm, she yawns widely. Later Zhao Li Xin came while carrying Lory in his arms, he wrapped her like a dumpling with a thick blanket but still Lory is not awaked, she rubs her chin on Zhao Li Xin c.h.e.s.t slightly before she continues sleeping.

"Good night" Zhao Li Xin remain courteous then he left the room.

Ming Yue Yin waved her hand tiredly then she yawns again. She already expected this would happen luckily they are not sleeping in Zhao li Xin cabin if not she would kick from the bed by her merciless uncle. Zhao Li Xin never has enough patients not even to the fairer s.e.x. Ming Yue Yin stretches her arms on the air then she takes off her outer robes then returns to her bed.

The next morning, she awakens by the sounds of waves crash to the ship and the sunlight peek from the curtain, Lory stretches her arms and legs as she prepares to wake up but why her body feel heavy and she feel suffocated then she realized she lay face down on the bed she shifts her head to the side and jolt with the handsome face sleep next to her.

The man has pristine skin and a defined jawline, he got long thick eyelashes that make women envy and thin s.e.xy lips that slightly open while he's sleeping, Lory blinks her eyes a few times before she realizes it was her husband sleep next to her, and he wrapped her arms and legs on top of her no wonder she felt heavy, but then again where is Ming Yue Yin?

Zhao Li Xin eyes fluttered for a second before it's slowly open, the corner of his lips curved slightly when he saw her face "You awake?" his voice slightly hoarse but it gives seductive sense in his voice.

"Uhm…" Lory blushed as she gives a quick reply.

Zhao Li Xin pulls her closer and tighten his embraces, he rests his chin on the top of her head as he inhaled the sweet scent from her body, his wife body is small and soft just like the dumpling she used to eat but she was forced to carry the heavy burden on her small shoulder, she had bruised and bleed and steel that's not enough, how much pained his little wife must go through until they are satisfied, this is not fair!

"Li Xin, I can't breathe" Lory hit his arms.

"Oh, sorry…." He quickly released his arms from her waist "Are you okay? I'm sorry, I just miss you?" he tugged her hair behind her ear.

"You only went for a day" she pursed her lips, she does not believe his flowery words. 

"Not according to the times at the mystique realms" he reminds her again.

"I forgot about that, oh yeah the brat is here….wait did I sleep in her cabin, why am I here?" Lory just realizes she is back to her own cabin but she doesn't remember when she changed the room.

"Yes I saw here last night when I carry you back to our room" Zhao Li Xin raised from the bed.

"You don't ask why she is here?" Lory tilted her head as she has a sit on the end of the bed.

"Why should I, that brat probably heard you and Miss Yang is having fun without her so she insisted to come regardless" Zhao Li Xin scoffed, he strides to the round table then pour himself a cup of wine then he raised his chin and smiles "Am I right?"

Lory sighs "You Right" 

Zhao Li Xin faintly smiles, then he circled the table then stop in front of the map, Lory know is not just an ocean map but a nautical chart is used to give information about water dept and dangerous location for navigation, Lory only understands a little bit about the chart because it's too complicated for her. In her world, this kind of information has been converted into digital and it also more simple so even a novice like her had no problem understanding it.

"Can you read this?" Zhao Li Xin raised his brows.

Lory twitches her nose "Barely…"

Zhao Li Xin guffawed "Well, at least we know there something you not good at" he teased.

She scrunched her face, she is not superwoman there's a lot of things she's not good at, and another thing that she can do well it because she works very hard and sometimes because she was pushed in the condition where she had to do well or else, unlike Lucas she is not a genius she just a hard worker and also very diligent.

After she cleans up herself Lory got out from the cabin, because it's still early morning no one is on the deck except the Mong brother and the crew who perform their duty, stretch her neck then walk to the side of the deck, she folded her arms on the railing and gazing to the vast blue ocean.

she was in a daze when Girsha suddenly perches on the railing next to her.

[Morning Birdie…] she lazily greets him.

[Hm.....] Girsha answers with a quick grunt he flapping his wings then gaze to the blue sky with an uneasy look.

[What's wrong?] Lory though there something odd about Girsha's behavior, he is too quiet.

Girsha squint his eyes [I'm not sure….the wind feel weird don't you think?]

Girsha takes a deep breath as his green eyes stare intently at the sky [How is your power….?] he suddenly shift his gaze at Lory.

[Still recovering] Lory gaze deepen. 

[Tch, me too….I don't like this Lory] something is brewing above the sky and it coming towards them. He could feel it right from the tip of his feathers.
