A few minutes passed by the three of them to eat. While the man at the side still stared at the three with a cup of green tea.
Until finally one gulp managed he sipped by putting his glass a little rough. The man got up and walked over to Bella's desk.
Once there the man began to sit between them and it was there that the man's face began to appear.
He was Wei Qing Wei Zifu's half-brother.
But why is he here???
"Sister Qing what are you doing here?" Bella asked as she looked at Wei Qing instead Wei Qing glanced at Xin and Zin who were still chewing his food.
"Did you forget? Didn't I tell you yesterday that today's vacation." Wei Qing.
Bella nodded when in fact she did not know not to forget.
"Then, who is he?" He asked while looking at the two boys.
"Ah, they're my friends." Bella replied casually.
Xin and Zin were surprised by Bella's words. Bella then continued her words by telling them both names.
"His name is Xin and the smallest one is Zin. If you're two, introduce Wei Qing he's my brother." Bella introduced them.
Wei Qing looked pleased at the nod of his head as he said "Ah so well, since you are my sister's friends then I will also consider you my friends." Wei Qing raised his cup which he had already stuffed himself then he toasted to Xin & Zin.
Tringggg
There was a loud sound from the three cups as they clashed.
"Uncle you look weird." Said Zin innocently.
"Haha why do you think I'm weird Zin?" Wei Qing asked slightly laughing.
"We just met couldn't be friends right away." Obviously the little boy.
Xin then pinched Zin's thigh down there. While showing an expression that might be interpreted as "Don't say that!!" Less is more like that.
Behind that Bella found out while Wei Qing was still trying to get close to Zin.
Elsewhere in the residence of Princess Pingyang there was a commotion due to Bella who disappeared without news. Emperor Wu, who knew about it, immediately told his men to look for Bella's whereabouts, he also gave orders to punish criminals who dared to kidnap Bella/Wei Zifu.
Some of the Emperor's soldiers were sent to find the dancer's whereabouts.
From his search it turned out that the Emperor's soldiers had already arrived at the market. Even the streets were almost overrun by them.
Bella who happened to get seated by the window there was able to notice the arrival of the soldier from above.
Oh no are they looking for me? But if I get caught will I be locked up in a palace later???
"Bella, why don't you just run away from here?" Meimei gave a suggestion.
"Good idea." Bella's words made the others hear her without knowing what Bella meant.
Bella got up from her seat and started to prepare to run away from there.
"You all listen to me!" Bella said firmly and that made the others ready to listen.
"I have to get out of here, and also Xin Zin I'll see you guys there again." Point Bella towards the big tree on the market street. The tree is the most prominent among the other trees.
Xin and Zin nodded quickly which meant they agreed with Bella's words. Now that Wei Qing was staying, the man should not prevent her from escaping from there.
"Yes?"
"I have to leave now, the emperor's soldiers are looking for me." Definitely Bella.
Wei Qing was shocked by what he had just heard from his beloved sister. He then held Bella's shoulders and asked her.
"Why can they find you? Did you make a mistake?"
"Sister Qing, I ran away from Princess Pingyang's house but I don't know if it will be pursued by the emperor's subordinates." Bella answered explaining.
Hearing that, Wei Qing's brother immediately grabbed Bella's wrist to help her get out of the restaurant. Because it looks like the soldiers are getting closer.
"You two stay here, and you're Wei Zifu wearing your veil." Wei Qing's.
"O yes I forgot." Soon Bella put on her veil and followed Wei Qing's steps to bring her out of there.
After getting out of the restaurant, the soldiers were already in front of the restaurant. Soon Wei Qing hid Bella behind his left hand.
One of the soldiers was suspicious towards them and started to get closer to the two. The soldier briefly glanced at Bella but was immediately confronted by Wei Qing.
"Good day." Wei Qing's greeting to the soldier.
"Jiang." His greeting back
"It looks like you're looking for a fugitive."
"No sir, we're looking for a dancing lady she's beautiful and young." Obviously the soldier.
"Ah I want to help but my wife is pregnant young and she wants me to take a young mango. Hahaha my wife is very funny, right sir."
Hearing that foolishly he immediately believed after seeing Bella rubbed her slightly distended stomach. Though your stomach is big because it has been filled with food added Bella trying to develop her stomach by holding her breath.
"Well, you can go now." Said the soldier.
Soon Wei Qing took Bella away from there and Bella could already breathe again.
Arriving on the quiet streets, Wei Qing began to briefly lecture Bella.
"Go home and don't try to escape from there again. Remember, we're not nobles." Wei Qing said reminding Bella.
"No brother Qing, I'll do whatever I want. Although we are not nobles but at least we are happy to live here by doing everything we want to do. Brother Qing please, don't forbid me."
"Wei Zifu!!"
Without hearing back her brother's cry, Bella rushed away from there and returned to Princess Pingyang's residence.
Before entering the door of the residence, Bella asked Meimei to give her a fresh flower. After appearing in her hand Bella immediately went in there.
"Wei!!!!" Princess Pingyang cried as the door was opened by the guards. Beside him was already Emperor Wu who looked anxious on his face.
Bella stepped closer to Princess Pingyang as well as the Princess who immediately checked on Bella's condition. On the other hand, it turns out that Emperor Wu was staring at Bella's appearance which looks like a princess of the Palace, beautiful and innocent.
Why is my heart beating? Inner Emperor.
