When Wei Jiayi"s realized what she is intending to do, his eyes bulged, he never expected to be so lucky so soon.

Probably not, cause under the dress, she is already wearing a male set of robes. but to His disappointment then is clearly seen on his face,

Gao Lan Mei raised a brow at him then looked at him knowingly with a smirk. Wei Jiayi just ignored that and placed his disappointment at the back of his head. He held her hand again to leave immediately.

He has plans for the days so who would stop him to touch her with his remaining time if he wants too? None.

They left Li Huan"s courtyard and arrived at the manor"s gates, Wei Jiayi still holding her hands. With this just imagine how everyone will react when two males are acting this way.

"Brother Lan!" Lou Ren shrieked catching their attention after he did a respectful bow to Wei Jiayi.

Lou Ren was initially taking over tracking using Kai Kai when the hound suddenly went inside the courtyard.

Since Wei Jiayi is in Concubine Li courtyard, he immediately understood that the hound was summoned.

Strangely all the servants outside the main room are just standing like he did not arrive.

Aside from the young maid, sitting at the third layer of the steps in front of the room"s entrance, both arms bent, elbows leaning to her knees so she can place both her hands in her chin, gloomily waiting.

When Merchant Lan and Wei Jiayi went out of the room, the maid"s eyes brightened red that even Lou Ren got surprised that made him think thoughtfully.

He looked questioning to them, eyeing Wei Jiayi"s hand that is holding "Lan Gao", as his master does not hold just anyone.

Answering his unspoken concern, "He will be coming back with us to the Wei Palace." he said, Wei Jiayi can feel Xiao s.h.i.+"s glare so he asked, "Are you bringing this pest with you?" asking Gao Lan Mei referring to Xiao s.h.i.+ as the "pest".

"Whose the pest? You are the pest!" Xiao s.h.i.+ shriek, feeling offended and really wants to bite Wei Jiayi for doing so. She is sure the man manipulated her master.

Wei Jiayi just looked down to Xiao s.h.i.+, not liking the disrespect but did not talk further. Xiao s.h.i.+ averted her eyes and lowered her head, feeling a little frightened.

With a cough, "Hmm. Yes, she will be with me, but she needs to do something else." Gao Lan Mei answered, using Merchant Lan"s voice.

Then adding, "Be good. Enjoy." she said to Xiao s.h.i.+, pulling her hand that is being held by Wei Jiayi, even if the man clearly does not want to release her hand, and patted the maid"s head. "Just go back when you are fully satisfied. Do not forget to bring me what I asked for." she smiled wickedly.

"Yes, miss!" Xiao s.h.i.+ beamed, she will not fail her new master"s order. She already like Gao Lan Mei, so she wants to stay and does not want to be given away, again.

Nodding her head, then looked around the bright blue barrier that is still arranged in the whole manor, "Heh, this is really too much for a merchant like me. Don"t you think so Your Highness?" she asked, sarcasm lace on her voice.


Does he need to even involve people from the Immortal Domain? Well, she does not mind making use of them later.

Wei Jiayi raised a brow, playing along, understanding her intention to keep her current merchant ident.i.ty, "Probably. If you can increase all my subordinates ranks, I guess that is worth it. Their effort should be rewarded too." he said.
