THE RISE OF THE DEMON ALCHEMIST
Chapter 03's
"Miss, the air outside is getting colder, the better we get back to the pavilion" Lily reminded
"Yes.. Lily please prepare warm tea for me, I want to mix lime and honey" She Xia said
"Well miss." said Lily as she rushed to the kitchen to prepare tea for She Xia
"Lien, do we have a supply of ginger? The weather is getting colder, drinking ginger tea or ginger milk is best suited when the air is cold like this" asked She Xia
"It looks like there's still a lady, do you want to drink her ginger tea now?" ask Lien
"No, it's for tomorrow only" She Xia replied calmly, stepping her feet towards the pavilion
"She Xia." call Jun Jiang
"Ehh.." She Xia was shocked because he did not feel Jun Jiang's existence
"Did you surprise me?" asked Jun Jiang
"Umm.." a short answer from She Xia's mouth
"Didn't you miss me?" jon Jiang asked back
"No" the resolute answer slid leisurely from She Xia's mouth. Inexplicably hearing She Xia's reply made Jun Jiang's corner of heart feel piqued
"Do you have time to talk to your brother for a minute?" asked Jun Jiang
"Maybe next time" She Xia's reply coldly
"Four days longer you have to go back to the border" Jun Jiang said as he watched She Xia's look on his face
"Umm. carefully on the road" as if indifferent and as if never knowing each other, She Xia's words made Jun Jiang's heart feel even more claustrophobic
"I must return immediately to the residence, please young master Jun Jiang uh General Jun Jiang give way" She Xia said without heeding Jun Jiang's heartfelt gaze
"Come on Lien, I want to rest" She Xia said as she pulled Lien's arm
"Eh. uh. i. yes, miss" Lien felt awkward about She Xia's treatment
Jun Jiang was getting more and more upset, his mind was completely muddled, his heart was completely in a state of turmoil, what happened to his sister? Why does he seem to not know her? And had his heart been closed to Jun Jiang? Is that as big as She Xia's hatred? So face to face or even rebuke as if reluctant, Jun Jiang stepped his legs back into his study with a throbbing head, there was pain but not bleeding, invisible but felt, so slicing poignant up to the recesses of his deepest heart.
"Did I make a big mistake? Don't you see that my love is still the same as She Xia, even though I don't accept your love, but my love as a sister is still as great as it used to be, did I disappoint you?" muttered Jun Jiang to whom
While She Xia was relaxing with her two servants
"Lily, Lien, I want the two of you to look for a big enough house in a place far from here, buy 2 houses on your behalf" She Xia said as she took out 2 gold coin chests
"Well miss, tomorrow we will set out to find her" Lien and Lily replied in unison
"Was the lady planning to throw us away?" asked Lien with teary eyes
"I already consider you two like my brothers, I want you to have a good life, have a home, a business and also get married" She Xia said
"Miss, a waiter like me just wants to devote his life to the lady" Lily replied
"Maybe I'm going to leave in the near future, I don't want you guys to follow me, I'm not strong enough yet to be able to protect you guys" She Xia said
"No matter where the lady goes, please bring this despicable servant miss, I am willing to do anything for the lady" Lien said as she cried and kowtowed in front of She Xia followed by Lily, banging his forehead until it bled
"Hey... What are you doing? Wake up.." She Xia helped Lily and Lien wake up, wiped the tears of her two loyal servants and directly hugged her
"I ask you both to buy a house and a place of business, so that you will not be servants anymore, I will go to practice, improve my abilities and physical rigor, he said, in order that in the future there will be no more oppressive people, I want you to have a home, so that I have a place to go home and feel like I have a family, I want you two to wait for me" she Xia said at length
"So she meant to enter the academy?" ask Lien and Lily
"Right, I have to enter the academy for my future" She Xia replied lyingly
"I'm sorry Lien, Lily, I was forced to lie, I can't possibly say I'm going to the demon forest to look for the devil fruit as well as the dragon sword of destruction, I want you to be happy, I want you to be happy, I don't know if I can return safely or not from there" She Xia murmured inwardly
"Well ladies, we'll do everything the lady wants, we'll always wait for the lady to come back" Lily said
"Thank you Lien, Lily, the two of you are best friends and also my best brother" She Xia hugged her two maids in peace
"When will the lady leave?" ask Lien
"Maybe 1 week away, we'll spend some time having fun during this week" She Xia replied
"Does Miss still love General Jun Jiang?" ask Lily
"No" She Xia replied firmly
"She is just a part of my past, but right now I can say firmly, I don't love Jun Jiang, I just want to live quietly, she said, welcoming my future and opening my heart to a man who truly loves me, I will neither beg nor lament to anyone, enough of the foolishness I made in the past, for now and in the future, I will no longer remember that name, I will prove in the future, the insults and jeers I heard in the past are just the wind passing by. I will stand taller than anyone" She Xia said excitedly
Jedeeerr..
As if struck by lightning, Jun Jiang who was intending to visit She Xia heard that straightforward remark, his chest just suddenly felt tight
Deg. deg...
His heart beat was hunting irregularly, there was a sharp pain in his heart, she was happy to hear her sister want to change but somehow there was a feeling of pain and unwillingness when She xia said she would open her heart to another man. Somehow his meeting with She Xia had continued to create anxiety in his mind, there were feelings of sadness, pain, disappointment, unwillingness and also pain that raged in his heart.
"What's wrong with me? Why am I crying when I hear her words?" thought Jun Jiang while rubbing his face with a huff
