Sorry but I only accept female disciples!

With a nod, Xiangli Fei gently smiled as she spoke "First let me introduce myself. My name is Xiangli Fei, the first princess of this Xiangli kingdom... May I ask what this Young master\'s name is?"

Smiling, Zhang Yuan replied "Zhang Yuan."

Zhang? Xiangli Fei was dumbfounded. Usually a wife takes her Husband\'s last name... but he took her wife\'s last name."

"Young Master Yuan, then..."

Zhang Yuan nodded his head "Miss Fei."

Xiangli Fei hurriedly shook her head and spoke "Even though, Fumin hates me... we are still sisters. So I am sister-in-law to you."

Zhang Yuan remembered that Xiangli Fei was still thinking of him and Zhang FUmin as lovers, so he played along "Yeah... Sister Fei."

A faint blush adorned Xiangli Fei\'s cheeks and she giggled "Then I will also call you, brother Yuan..."

She moved a bit closer to him and asked "And what did Fumin tell you about me?"

Smiling, Zhang Yuan replied "That you are an incredible person and she likes you very much."

Upon hearing this, Xiangli Fei burst out laughing "Haha, I know that is not true, Brother Yuan.. You jest..."

Looking at her laughing, Zhang Yuan smiled faintly and replied "I am not lying..."

Xiangli Fei sighed and nodded her head "Yeah, yeah... I believe."

"I know very well that she hates me because her mother was killed by her mother."

Zhang Yuan gave a nod and Xiangli Fei spoke "But I have never hated her..."

Her gaze trembled in pain as she pushed the words out of her throat "It is all.. because of my mother."

"She never allowed me to talk with my other siblings... who are the children of the Queens in the Kingdom, saying that I shouldn\'t get close to them."

"So... during my childhood, I never got the chance to talk or mingle with my younger siblings and that is continuing till now."

"And Fumin is the youngest of them all and she was so cute when she was young..."

"I once tried to talk with her secretly in the courtyard, but my mother saw me and I was later beaten by her."

Her heart clenched in pain as she uttered "I also want to get along with my siblings and have a good bonding with them."

"But I never got the chance."

"One day, when she was nineteen, Fumin said that she was cutting ties with the royal family and left the palace."

"Using the opportunity, I also sneaked out of the palace and wanted to talk to her... now that we are finally outside the palace."

"But... when I tried to talk with her, she was angry at me and yelled at me because my mother killed her mother."

Taking a deep breath, she spoke "That was the time, I also came to know how horrible my mother is."

"I... tried to speak with her, but she never listened to me and avoided me from then on."

She turned her gaze to Zhang Yuan, her eyes moistening with tears "W-What did I do?"

"I-I-I just wanted to have a little sister and have a bond with her. Is that too much to ask?"

"But because of my mother... she hates me now and I can\'t even hold a conversation with her."

Hearing her words, Zhang Yuan sighed in his heart and Xiangli Fei hurriedly wiped the tears from her face.

With a smile, she spoke "Sorry, Brother Yuan... I called you out and venting out like this."

"The reason I called you here is because I wanted your help, so I can talk with Fumin."

"Can you do it for me, Brother Yuan?"

Looking at her crimson eyes shed with tears, Zhang Yuan smiled and nodded his head "Of course, I would help."

...

At the same time, Zhang Fumin was walking towards the inn of Ling Shen and saw that the renovation work is happening.

With a smile, she walked towards Ling Shen who was observing the workers.

"Aunty Shen.."

Ling Shen turned her head and smiled looking at Zhang Fumin "Fumin...."

Zhang Fumin smiled back and asked, "Seems like the renovation work is going smoothly."

"Yeah, yeah... in one day. This renovation will be completed and we can open it for customers. hehe. It\'s all thanks to you, FUmin."

Zhang Fumin shook her head and spoke in a soft tone "No, Aunty Shen... you earned this."

Her blue eyes looked around and she asked "By the way, where is Yuan... he said that he is coming to your inn before leaving the home."

Ling Shen remembered and spoke hurriedly "The First Princess came here."

Huh? zhang Fumin was taken aback "Why did that bitch come here?"

With a nod, Ling Shen replied "She already told me that she liked my food. So, she came today to have breakfast in my inn."

"However, seeing that my inn is under renovation she sighed and when I was busy, I saw she and her little brother leaving together."

HUH? Zhang Fumin was dumbfounded. "She went alone with Yuan?"

Ling Shen nodded her head "En." and Zhang Fumin hastily asked, "Where did they go?"

She pointed to the left and spoke "They went in that direction."

Zhang Fumin hurriedly ran in the direction and quickly reached the river.

Looking at the scene, her pupils sharks in shock, and a mutter escaped her lips "Yuan.."

There she saw Xiangli Fei crying in Zhang Yuan\'s arms and he is consoling her by patting her head.

Seeing how Zhang Yuan\'s hands circled around her waist as she buried her face on his chest, made her heart rage up.

"You damn bitch!"

Screaming in anger, Zhang Fumin walked towards them.

Hearing a sudden yell, Xiangli Fei was startled and hurriedly turned her head to Zhang Fumin who was strolling towards her.

"F-Fumin..." Xiangli Fei panicked and hastily left Zhang Yuan\'s embrace.

Standing in front of Xiangli Fei, Zhang Fumin gave a slap right across her cheek. *pla*

Zhang Yuan sighed in his heart as Xiangli Fei\'s neck turned to the right with Zhang Fumin\'s powerful slap.

"Shh.. hurts." Xiangli Fei winced in pain but she didn\'t yell back at Zhang Fumin, but showed a subtle smile "Fumin..."

Zhang Fumin\'s eyes narrowed "Tsk, what kind of bitch you are? I know you hate me... But trying to woo my man is... utter disgrace."

Zhang Yuan grasped Zhang Fumin\'s hand and pulled her "Listen to me..."

But Zhang Fumin shrugged his hand and pushed him away as she turned her glare to Xiangli Fei "If you ever tried to lay your finger on my Tian, I will fucking kill you."

Xiangli Fei didn\'t utter a word and lowered her head as if she was the guilty one here."

Zhang Yuan again grabbed Zhang Fumin\'s hand tightly "That\'s not what happened. you are misunderstanding..."

Zhang Fumin glared at Zhang Yuan and yelled at him "You stop, Yuan. Don\'t speak for her... I can\'t believe that she mesmerized you with just one meeting... What kind of seduction did this cunt do? huh?"

"I saw both of you hugging..."

Zhang Yuan spoke in a soft tone "Calm down first and listen to what I am saying."

Zhang Fumin\'s eyes trembled in pain that Zhang Yuan was still vouching for Xiangli Fei and uttered in a cold tone "Yuan, let my hand go."

Hm? Zhang Yuan\'s gaze squinted and Zhang Fumin yelled at him "I TOLD YOU TO LET GO OF MY HAND, YUAN!"

Hearing her scream, Zhang Yuan let go of her hand and Zhang Fumin turned to leave from there "Don\'t ever talk to me, Yuan."

She clenched her fist in frustration and turned to look at Xiangli Fei "This is all because of you... I will never forgive you."

Tears scorched in her eyes as her lips trembled in pain "Y-Your mother took my Mother from me and n-now... you even took my Yuan."

She ran away from there in anger, wiping the tears strolling down her cheeks.

Zhang Yuan clutched his head in pain seeing Zhang Fumin\'s mood swings and he turned his gaze to Xiangli Fei who was visibly trembling.

"Sister Fei."

*sniff* Xiangli Fei took deep breaths as drops of tears rained down from her eyes to the ground "I-I-I am sorry, Brother Yuan."

"Because of me, your relationship..."

Letting out a soft sigh, Zhang Yuan reached out to wipe the tears from Xiangli Fei\'s cheeks "Don\'t worry... I will talk to her later."

Xiangli Fei nodded as Zhang Yuan brushed the tears from her face with his palm and she was embarrassed that she cried in front of him.

Zhang Yuan gently pinched her cheek as he uttered in a soft tone "Now smile.."

*giggle* With a faint giggle, Xiangli Fei smiled and Zhang Yuan reassured her "You leave... I will talk with her."

"En."
