"Stupid! It's only a woman but the lot of you failed to capture a mere lady!", the young man shouted. The people kneeling on his feet has been beaten till blue and black.

"Young master, the lady rarely goes out from her house. Even if she goes out, she is always accompanied by the second prince", the leader of the group pleaded the angry young master.

"Second Prince?! Even a weak prince like that you lot couldn't handle? Is your reputation as no.1 assasins in jianghu is just a farce?", the young master shouted again. His face is red.

'This bastard have been talking to us like we are his property! If not because of our sect master already accepted your money, we wouldn't even look at you!', the leader of the group gritted his teeth. They as the Phantom sect has never been treated this low. But the time has not come yet for them to show their true strength to this bastard.

"Then, out of the goodness of my heart, this young master will give you lot one more chance. Capture Li Xi Rui! You are not allowed to harm her. I need her alive! Now SCRAM!", the young master stood with his back in front of the assasins.

"Yes Young Master!", they left after agreeing. In their heart, the young master's word is not of importance. What important is what the sect master want. As long as the sect master allowed the young master to control them, they would follow his order. But once the sect master turned his back on the young master, they would kill him. They are not some dogs or pigs to be insulted like that. They're the famous Phantom Sect's assasins! Even all of jianghu is afraid of them!

In the Li residence~
"Xi Rui, I heard something amazing today. Do you want to know?", Lu Xin Yin keep on nudging her best friend.

As Li Xi Rui look at the smiling face, how could she disappoint the lovely girl? With a smile on her own lips she said, "What? Quickly tell me. Is it perhaps the news of my brother are coming home?".

"WHAT?! Is Mu Han ge coming back?", Xin Yin keep on shaking Xi Rui body.

"Yes. You didn't know? Then what is the thing you heard on the street?", if that wasn't what Xin Yin wanted to tell her, then why is she so excited?

" Ah~ Xi Rui, don't keep on pretending. Tell me is the news about you and second prince is true?", Xin Yin wiggled her eyebrows.

"What news? Xin Yin, don't believe in gossips. Haven't you learn a lesson yet?" , Xi Rui couldn't fathom the young girl's hobby of listening to gossips.

"Aiya~ that is why I ask you. That and this is different", Xin Yin playfully slap Xi Rui's arm.

Li Xi Rui just shakes her head.

Whispering, Xin Yin said, "I heard you and the second prince had an affair!". Xin Yin smiling widely and continued, "The second prince is handsome and even better than that scum! Xi Rui, this jie jie approve!". She put up two thumbs up.

Choking on her tea, Li Xi Rui keeps on coughing. "I and Long Jie doesn't that kind of relationship!", she declared herself as innocent.

"Ah~ getting familiar are we? You are calling each other by name now? Li Xi Rui, don't lie to this jie jie!", Xin Yin kept on teasing Xi Rui until she eventually gave up.

How could she forget, this girl in front of her is just have another different character altogether. She invited her because she wanted to know how her father's doing. But then she became a joke in her own house. She seriously missed this friend of hers.

"Jie Jie!", a small figure run and hugged her. Looking down at the little girl with two little buns on her head, she hugged her back.

"Little princess, a lady shouldn't run like that", she poke the little nose. She had wanted to stay away from any royal family member but this little girl made her forget that intention over and over again.

"But ladies shouldn't fight and rising her voice in public either", the little princess retort.

'This little girl is making fun of me', Li Xi Rui just keep her mouth shut. From whom did she learn how to insult people? But seeing the smiling little girl, how could she be angry? Sighing, she asked, " Did you come here by yourself?".

"She came with me", a voice interrupted her. "Xi Rui, I hope you didn't mind. She insists on meeting you", that man give a slight smile.
