Chapter 250 - Liu Mengdi Is Alive?!
"It’s finally done!" Liuli said in an excited tone as she watched the completed behemoth of a tower that stood more than a thousand meters in height! It was shaped like a sword and was painted with black and silver, making it look rather mysterious.
Standing beside Liuli, Xia Xinyue smiled happily when she heard the former’s words. She also felt a sense of achievement after completing the mission given to them by Jiu Shen.
The two beautiful women stared at the towering building that was pointing at the skies like an arrogant sword. They could already feel Jiu Shen’s contempt towards the heavens with his sect building’s design and this made them smile even more radiantly.
Xia Xinyue and Liuli unconsciously hugged each other because of the intense emotions they were feeling and it seemed as if they had already forgotten their misgivings towards each other after the completion of the sect building.
"Let’s go tell him about this. He would be happy to see his own sect building." Xia Xinyue said with an infatuated smile as she thought about how Jiu Shen would react to this.
Liuli chuckled when she saw the look on her face, but she still nodded her head in response. "Alright, but I’ll go see my father first. I’ll bring him to the store so that he can formally apologize to Lord Jiu Shen." She said.
Xia Xinyue nodded her head absentmindedly. She was still immersed in her own thoughts that she did not even hear that Liuli was laughing sweetly as she walked away from the scene.
***
Inside Jiu Shen’s wine store. The fifth princess and the fourth prince were already back at work and they were now serving the customers like how a waiter and a waitress should. The customers that they were serving were so overwhelmed by the professionalism of the two young individuals. They did not have the arrogance of a noble or the haughty attitudes of their big brothers, so everyone was happy to get the help of the two siblings.
"Your Highness, we meet again."
A calm voice drifted beside Dante’s ears, making him unconsciously stare at the speaker. When he saw the owner of the voice, he was stunned and he even forgot how to speak.
"Isn’t that Young Master Liu?! So he is still alive? I thought he was captured by his uncles."
"To think that I would actually see Young Master Liu again in this store. I never thought that I would see him again after the intense internal conflict of the Liu Family."
The customers were surprised to see Liu Mengdi inside the store after going missing for many days. The Liu Family experienced a terrible internal conflict that divided them into two factions. One faction supported Liu Mengdi’s uncles and the other faction supported him and his father. However, Liu Mengdi’s father met a pitiful end and was killed in action. Because of this, the faction that supported Liu Mengdi was weakened so they chose to hide temporarily to avoid the vicious plots of Liu Mengdi’s uncles.
"Young Master Liu..." Prince Dante speechlessly stared at the refined-looking young man who wore a light smile on his face.
Princess Sylvia was also surprised to see Liu Mengdi standing in front of her without a missing limb. "Are you crazy?! Why did you come here? Your uncles would immediately know that you are here!"
Liu Mengdi chuckled when he saw the expressions on their faces. "That’s why I’m here. They were able to track my movements so I had no choice but to go here and seek refuge. I hope you don’t mind my intrusion." He said shamelessly.
"You..." The fourth prince uttered, but he then shook his head with a stiff smile on his face. He understood the miserable plight of this young man, so he could really bring himself to scold him.
"We don’t mind, but do you think, Young Miss Theia feels the same? Just go and buy wine before she kicks you out of the store. Anyway, your uncles would never dare to act inside the store with her observing everything." Princess Sylvia whispered cheekily to Liu Mengdi.
The fourth prince was just a meter away from them, so he could still hear her words. He could only shake his head with a wry smile when he heard the suggestion of her sister. ’This girl hasn’t changed at all.’
Liu Mengdi laughed after heading her words, but he still nodded his head at the fifth princess and said. "Your Highness is truly smart and brilliant. In that case, I would like to order two Ables Blanc."
Princess Sylvia smiled from ear to ear when she heard his compliments. "Alright. Just find a table for yourself or you can also sit beside that group right there." She said as she pointed at a random group of customers.
"Sure." Liu Mengdi smiled at her.
"I’ll go get your order. Don’t forget to pay or you’ll be punished by Young Miss Theia!" Princess Sylvia warned with an exaggerated look before she went to get his order.
"Young Master Liu, I’ll get back to work now. Just find me if you need my help." Prince Dante said before walking away.
Liu Mengdi watched the two siblings with a smile as he uttered softly. "So I still have friends, huh?" He then shook his head as he walked towards where Princess Sylvia had pointed earlier.
In a different corner of the store, Jiu Shen took a sidelong glance at Liu Mengdi’s figure and whispered to himself. "He actually broke through again... It appears that something compelled him to breakthrough. Well, I don’t care how did it, but I am beginning to like this kid even more. Maybe I should invite him to my sect’s opening ceremony..."
The small girl in his embrace wriggled as she opened her sleepy eyes. She then stretched her limbs and took a glance at her empty milk bottle. She pouted and poked Jiu Shen as she said.
"Stinky human, why is this empty? I remember that this was still full an hour ago. Meow!"
Jiu Shen knocked the back of her head and said. "You greedy Little Tiger. You were drinking it when you were asleep."
"Lies! Meow! Lies!" Ice made a ferocious face at Jiu Shen, but the latter merely stared at her with a calm look.
