Late Afternoon, Ba Yue finally woke up from her sleep. The person waiting outside of the door hear some sound coming out of the room. She gently knocked on the door just in case the person inside is still sleeping and she might have misheard it.
"Come In," Ba Yue was putting her shoes and her hair is all messy from the sleep.
"Young Miss, you are awake. Miss Ho Kei is here already, she came for her acupuncture treatment. And also, the 7th prince was also here this morning and have waited for you for a long time, he just left not too long ago." Han Chu came into the room and starts helping Ba Yue to get dress.
"Why didn't you wake me up earlier? Oh, and help me with my hair."
"I told them that Young Miss went to bed late and is still sleeping. They both said to let you sleep and not to wake you up." Said Han Chu while she's styling Ba Yue's hair.
"I see, but next time you can still try to wake me up. If I don't want to see anyone, I will let you know beforehand."
"I understand, young miss. Oh, and one more thing. The 7th prince saved the food he made for you this morning in the kitchen. He told us to heat it up for you to eat when you wake up. Would you like me to heat up the food for you?"
"Ah....I forgot I promised him that I'll take him out today. Did he look disappointed when he left?" Ba Yue is rubbing the area between her eyebrow, she could almost imagine how disappointed Lok Son looks.
"His Highness did look a little disappointed. He wanted to wait for you to wake up, but it looks he had something to do and have to leave."
"Okay, I understand."
Ba Yue left the guest room that she was staying and walked outside the room. She then heads back to her own bedroom with Han Chu.
"How's your sister doing?" Asked Ba Yue as she walks into her room and going toward the table to sit down.
"Older sister has already woke up and she is feeling fine."
"That's good to know. Go heat up the food that Lok Son made for me and tell Ah Yan to come over here."
"Yes, Young Miss." Han Chu left the room to go do what was asked of her.
Soon, Han Chu has come back with the heated food and Han Yan right next to her. They start settings up the food on the table as soon as they walked in.
"Ah Yan, are you feeling better?" Asked Ba Yue as she picks up her chopstick, she couldn't wait to eat the food. She didn't get to eat breakfast so she's very hungry right now.
"Thank you, young miss for your concern, I'm feeling better. I also wanted to apologize for failing my mission and brought trouble for you." Han Yan just placed the last dish on the table when she said that. She had an apologetic look on her face.
" No, it's not your fault, so don't worry about it. The owners of that place are old crooks, you are still young, so it's hard not to fall into their traps." At this time, Ba Yue has already started eating. Her mouth was full as she speaks, she looks nothing like a proper young miss.
"I understand, young miss."
Han Chu and Han Yan's face look a little weird right now because it's the first time they see how Ba Yue eats and the amount she can eat. If it isn't because they don't want to look rude in front of her, their jaw would drop down to the floor. They thought to themselves, their young miss is definitely special in many ways.
After Ba Yue finished eating, she had a very satisfied look on her face. She can never get enough of Lok Son's cooking. She felt bad for breaking the promise she has with him for today. She'll try to make it up to him tomorrow.
"Ah Yan, I want you and Ho Wai go buy that more expensive building on the main street this time. I don't think there's going to be any trouble with this one." Ba Yue is taking out the green bank card and is giving it to Han Yan again.
Seeing the green bank card again, she remembered that it was stolen from her by those owners at the old brothel. She reached out her hands to receive the card and with a serious tone she said:
"Young Miss, I won't disappoint you again."
"Good, I will wait for your good news. And do hold on to the card because soon you will also use that card to buy the old brothel building too."
Han Yan is confused, why would Young Miss buy that old brothel building? And isn't that building already confiscated by the government official?
Seeing the confused look on Han Yan's face, Ba Yue then explain to her the reason.
"The brothel's building should be confiscated by the government official when they got arrested. When the owner of a property gets arrested and charged a with a serious crime, they usually get the death penalty. And their property will become the government official's property and will be auctioned for resale after the owner's death.
I believe that old brothel will be resale for a dirt cheap price once the government official announces the resale of that place. Not only that place is a brothel, but a place where crimes have occurred. No one is going to buy it even if it is cheap. I'll be able to buy that place for a very cheap price and then wait a while for the rumors to pass. Afterward, I will renovate the place to either open up more stores or just selling it. No matter what, I will still make a profit of it."
"I understand, young miss. I'll go get Ho Wai and buy the other place for now." Han Yn was about to leave and was stopped by Ba Yan.
"No need to hurry, I'll need to perform acupuncture treatment for Ho Kei. Wait until I'm done, you two can go back together."
"Yes, young miss."
"Where's Ho Kei right now?"
"She's currently in one of the guestroom room waiting for the young miss," replies Han Chu.
"Okay, let's go. I'll finish the acupuncture treatment quick so Ah Yan can go back with her sooner." Ba Yue got up to go look for Ho Kei as the two Han sisters' followed behind her.
Arriving at the guestroom where Ho Kei is, the door was opened. Ba Yue just walked right inside and the girls waited outside for her. The girls know they will have to stand guard of the room when their young miss do the acupuncture.
"Sister Kei, sorry to make you wait so long." Ba Yue is already inside the room and saw Ho Kei sitting on a chair.
"Oh no, young miss. I have only been here for a little while, I didn't wait long at all." Ho Kei got up to give Ba Yue a slight bow as soon as she saw Ba Yue came into the room.
Without saying more polite words, Ba Yue start getting to work. The acupuncture treatment is finished quickly, so she had Han Yan take Ho Kei back to the White Moon Residence. After sending everyone away, she went back to her room. She then starts cultivating, she felt like she has been too lazy lately.
It was late night when Han Yan came back, she has completed her mission and has also brought back some news for Ba Yue. But Ba Yue was cultivating so she didn't go bother her. It wasn't until the next morning that Ba Yue came out of her cultivation.
"Good morning, Young Miss." Greets both the Han sisters' when they saw Ba Yue coming out of her room.
"Good Morning, it's such a nice day today!" Said Ba Yue, as she is stretching her body.
"Young Miss, I have completed my missions and have news to report back to you." Said Han Yan.
"Good Job, Ah Yan. What news do you have for me?"
"Young Miss, the White Moon is very famous right now. Somehow, the news of the White Moon is responsible for the late night intrusion was leaked. Fortunately, they only know our organization's name and nothing more."
Umm…..how did they know our name? though Ba Yue. Then suddenly, she remembered something. She remembered telling her men to bring the children back to the White Moon residence. Someone possibly overheard her saying that name. She got to be more careful next time.
"It's okay, it's not a big deal even if they know our name. They won't be able to found out anything about us. Plus, having our name out there is not a bad thing. Especially when our store opens, no one will dare to mess with us."
Ba Yue is walking toward the dining room to have breakfast, when she arrived she only sees her father there.
"Good Morning, father. It's only you here today, I'm surprised Lok Son is not here today." Ba Yue walked over to the empty seat next to her father and sat down.
"Lok Son was here yesterday, but you were still sleeping. He looked kinda disappointed, did you promise him anymore?" Said Ba Shao Ten as he pours himself a cup of tea.
"Yeah, I promised him that I'll take him out and he was looking forward to it. But I forgot and overslept." Ba Yue also pour herself a cup of tea.
"Ah Yue, you should treat Lok Son better. He's your fiance and you two should get along better. I understand Lok Son is a little different than others, but I think he personally is good. Most important of all is that he treats you very well."
"I understand, father."
The father and daughter talk a little more and ate breakfast together. Ba Yue's thinking about Lok Son since he didn't come today, maybe she should go visit him instead. That's what she thinks, and that's actually what she did. She left the Ba residence after breakfast and head straight to the palace.
Coming along with her is the Han sisters and Little Red. They have reached the front of the palace but was stopped by the guards. Normal people are not allowed to go into the palace without the permission of the royal family. But the guards recognized Ba Yue as the future wife of the 7th prince, so they sent someone to go report it to the 7th prince.
Inside the room were two people talking. It's Mak Lok Son and Gao Sing.
"We couldn't find anything out about the White Moon that everyone is talking about yesterday. All we know is that the White Moon is a newly created organization. The victims said that the leader of the White Moon is someone that dressed in black and had a mask on. I don't think that person is trying to imitate Master, it's most likely a coincidence that person dressed like Master."
"I see, continue to investigate for now." As soon as Mak Lok Son said that, there was knocking sound on the door.
Mak Lok Son gave Gao Sing an eye signal, and then Gao Sing said: "Come in"
"Your Highness, Miss Ba is outside in front of the palace gate. She said she's here to visit you, and will her is two maids."
"Wow, Little Yue is here to visit me! Hurry and go invite her in and bring her over here! Said Mok Los Son very excitingly. The way he talks now is completely different than how he was talking to Gao Sing earlier.
The guard left to go bring Ba Yue into the palace. About 15-20 minutes later, the guard is back with Ba Yue and her maids.
"Little Yue, what brings you here today? I'm so happy to see you!" Said Mak Lok Son, as he runs up to Ba Yue as soon as he sees her.
He also noticed the two new maids of her and Little Red. When he saw one of the new maids yesterday, he already noticed something different about her. He secret asked Little Red about the maid and not much information is known about her. Since Little Red is with Ba Yue, he's not too worried but he still needs to investigate a little about the Han sisters. That's why he left early yesterday.
"Lok Son, I'm sorry I overslept yesterday and broke our promise. That's why I came over to make it up to you. I even brought some very yummy pastries from the famous Ding Xiang Tea House that I liked a lot for you." Ba Yue then handed the pasties she brought over to Lok Son.
"Thank You, Little Yue! It's the first time you come to visit me and even brought me a gift. I'll save the pasties forever to remember today."
"No, please don't. Just eat it, otherwise, it gets moldy real quick." Said Ba Yue as she sweatdrops. She didn't know by doing so little, it actually made Lok Son so happy. She felt like she can do better to make Lok Son happier.
"Okay, Little Yue can eat it with me since I know you like these pasties too." He then told Gao Sing to make some tea for them.
They then start to eat the pastries. Well, it's more like Ba Yue eats it and Lok Son happily watches her eats it. He didn't really like to sweets but he's always happy to watch his Little Yue eating her favorite snack.
"Why are you not eating? It's really good, you should try it." Said Ba Yue, she then took another bite of the pastry that's in her hand. Her hand is holding on the half-eaten pastry as she chews the other half in her mouth.
Suddenly, Lok Son grab her hand and ate the leftover half piece of Ba Yue's hand. He even licked her fingers clean, Ba Yue's body just froze from what had just happened. Her face has turned red and hot, she has never experienced this kind of closeness to any man before. Not even Mu Huang!
She's very nervous but she tries to stay calm and asked: "Why did you eat my leftover piece in my hand, there's more on the table."
"I don't eat many sweets, but the one you were eating looks yummy and you look like you were enjoying it, so I want to eat that piece that's leftover in your hand." Mak Lok Son had a big smile and a very satisfied look on his face.
Ba Yue didn't understand his reasoning, and she also didn't think much of it. She just treats it as a child's way of thinking.
Mak Lok Son knows if he doesn't make any bolder moves, his Little Yue will never see him as a man. So he has secretly decided that he will slowly make bolder moves and make it so that Ba Yue won't notice it. He'll make her slowly get used to his closeness and can't be without him.
Ba Yue continues to eat her yummy pastries and have no idea what Mak Lok Son had plans for her!
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
Late Afternoon, Ba Yue finally woke up from her sleep. The person waiting outside of the door hear some sound coming out of the room. She gently knocked on the door just in case the person inside is still sleeping and she might have misheard it.

"Okay, I understand."
Ba Yue left the guest room that she was staying and walked outside the room. She then heads back to her own bedroom with Han Chu.
"How's your sister doing?" Asked Ba Yue as she walks into her room and going toward the table to sit down.
"Older sister has already woke up and she is feeling fine."
"That's good to know. Go heat up the food that Lok Son made for me and tell Ah Yan to come over here."
"Yes, Young Miss." Han Chu left the room to go do what was asked of her.
Soon, Han Chu has come back with the heated food and Han Yan right next to her. They start settings up the food on the table as soon as they walked in.

Ba Yue just walked right inside and the girls waited outside for her. The girls know they will have to stand guard of the room when their young miss do the acupuncture."Sister Kei, sorry to make you wait so long." Ba Yue is already inside the room and saw Ho Kei sitting on a chair."Oh no, young miss. I have only been here for a little while, I didn't wait long at all." Ho Kei got up to give Ba Yue a slight bow as soon as she saw Ba Yue came into the room.Without saying more polite words, Ba Yue start getting to work. The acupuncture treatment is finished quickly, so she had Han Yan take Ho Kei back to the White Moon Residence. After sending everyone away, she went back to her room. She then starts cultivating, she felt like she has been too lazy lately.It was late night when Han Yan came back, she has completed her mission and has also brought back some news for Ba Yue. But Ba Yue was cultivating so she didn't go bother her. It wasn't until the next morning that Ba Yue came out of her cultivation."Good morning, Young Miss." Greets both the Han sisters' when they saw Ba Yue coming out of her room."Good Morning, it's such a nice day today!" Said Ba Yue, as she is stretching her body."Young Miss, I have completed my missions and have news to report back to you." Said Han Yan."Good Job, Ah Yan. What news do you have for me?""Young Miss, the White Moon is very famous right now. Somehow, the news of the White Moon is responsible for the late night intrusion was leaked. Fortunately, they only know our organization's name and nothing more."Umm..how did they know our name? though Ba Yue. Then suddenly, she remembered something. She remembered telling her men to bring the children back to the White Moon residence. Someone possibly overheard her saying that name. She got to be more careful next time."It's okay, it's not a big deal even if they know our name. They won't be able to found out anything about us. Plus, having our name out there is not a bad thing. Especially when our store opens, no one will dare to mess with us."Ba Yue is walking toward the dining room to have breakfast, when she arrived she only sees her father there."Good Morning, father. It's only you here today, I'm surprised Lok Son is not here today." Ba Yue walked over to the empty seat next to her father and sat down."Lok Son was here yesterday, but you were still sleeping. He looked kinda disappointed, did you promise him anymore?" Said Ba Shao Ten as he pours himself a cup of tea."Yeah, I promised him that I'll take him out and he was looking forward to it. But I forgot and overslept." Ba Yue also pour herself a cup of tea."Ah Yue, you should treat Lok Son better. He's your fiance and you two should get along better. I understand Lok Son is a little different than others, but I think he personally is good. Most important of all is that he treats you very well.""I understand, father."The father and daughter talk a little more and ate breakfast together. Ba Yue's thinking about Lok Son since he didn't come today, maybe she should go visit him instead. That's what she thinks, and that's actually what she did. She left the Ba residence after breakfast and head straight to the palace.Coming along with her is the Han sisters and Little Red. They have reached the front of the palace but was stopped by the guards. Normal people are not allowed to go into the palace without the permission of the royal family. But the guards recognized Ba Yue as the future wife of the 7th prince, so they sent someone to go report it to the 7th prince.Inside the room were two people talking. It's Mak Lok Son and Gao Sing."We couldn't find anything out about the White Moon that everyone is talking about yesterday. All we know is that the White Moon is a newly created organization. The victims said that the leader of the White Moon is someone that dressed in black and had a mask on. I don't think that person is trying to imitate Master, it's most likely a coincidence that person dressed like Master.""I see, continue to investigate for now." As soon as Mak Lok Son said that, there was knocking sound on the door.Mak Lok Son gave Gao Sing an eye signal, and then Gao Sing said: "Come in""Your Highness, Miss Ba is outside in front of the palace gate. She said she's here to visit you, and will her is two maids.""Wow, Little Yue is here to visit me! Hurry and go invite her in and bring her over here! Said Mok Los Son very excitingly. The way he talks now is completely different than how he was talking to Gao Sing earlier.The guard left to go bring Ba Yue into the palace. About 15-20 minutes later, the guard is back with Ba Yue and her maids."Little Yue, what brings you here today? I'm so happy to see you!" Said Mak Lok Son, as he runs up to Ba Yue as soon as he sees her.He also noticed the two new maids of her and Little Red. When he saw one of the new maids yesterday, he already noticed something different about her. He secret asked Little Red about the maid and not much information is known about her. Since Little Red is with Ba Yue, he's not too worried but he still needs to investigate a little about the Han sisters. That's why he left early yesterday."Lok Son, I'm sorry I overslept yesterday and broke our promise. That's why I came over to make it up to you. I even brought some very yummy pastries from the famous Ding Xiang Tea House that I liked a lot for you." Ba Yue then handed the pasties she brought over to Lok Son."Thank You, Little Yue! It's the first time you come to visit me and even brought me a gift. I'll save the pasties forever to remember today.""No, please don't. Just eat it, otherwise, it gets moldy real quick." Said Ba Yue as she sweatdrops. She didn't know by doing so little, it actually made Lok Son so happy. She felt like she can do better to make Lok Son happier."Okay, Little Yue can eat it with me since I know you like these pasties too." He then told Gao Sing to make some tea for them.They then start to eat the pastries. Well, it's more like Ba Yue eats it and Lok Son happily watches her eats it. He didn't really like to sweets but he's always happy to watch his Little Yue eating her favorite snack."Why are you not eating? It's really good, you should try it." Said Ba Yue, she then took another bite of the pastry that's in her hand. Her hand is holding on the half-eaten pastry as she chews the other half in her mouth.Suddenly, Lok Son grab her hand and ate the leftover half piece of Ba Yue's hand. He even licked her fingers clean, Ba Yue's body just froze from what had just happened. Her face has turned red and hot, she has never experienced this kind of closeness to any man before. Not even Mu Huang!She's very nervous but she tries to stay calm and asked: "Why did you eat my leftover piece in my hand, there's more on the table.""I don't eat many sweets, but the one you were eating looks yummy and you look like you were enjoying it, so I want to eat that piece that's leftover in your hand." Mak Lok Son had a big smile and a very satisfied look on his face.Ba Yue didn't understand his reasoning, and she also didn't think much of it. She just treats it as a child's way of thinking.Mak Lok Son knows if he doesn't make any bolder moves, his Little Yue will never see him as a man. So he has secretly decided that he will slowly make bolder moves and make it so that Ba Yue won't notice it. He'll make her slowly get used to his closeness and can't be without him.Ba Yue continues to eat her yummy pastries and have no idea what Mak Lok Son had plans for her!
