Lehan City began to look crowded, people from outside began to arrive intending to watch or even participate in the tournament that would soon be held by the Qing Empire.
The opportunity is used by traders to attract the attention of visitors.
In contrast to Li An who had lost the opportunity because his tavern had been destroyed so as not to attract the attention of visitors.
"Ah, 5 more days the tournament will be held, the visitors have started to arrive but we have no chance to take advantage of the opportunity and make money..." liang Li An complained as he stared at the ruined section of the tavern.
Meng Ye who was tidying up and cleaning the shop turned to Li An who was sitting quietly, he said, "You don't have to worry, I'll find a loan to fix our shop." he suggested.
Li An looked at Meng Ye fixedly, "Where are you going to get the loan from?" li An asked unsure.
Instead of answering, Meng Ye simply smiled in response to Li An's question.
Suddenly two men walking into the tavern made Meng Ye become enthusiastic to see them so that they immediately approached and let them sit down.
While Li An only turned his head for a moment to look at them, thinking that they were just a stray person.
"Do you guys need anything?" ask Meng Ye kindly.
"We're looking for sweet lady" said one of them.
"Sweet mademoiselle?" rework Meng Ye.
"I mean, Ms. Zhang Me" he said.
Meng Ye nodded, "She is my daughter, she is not here."
"But you can wait for him if there is an important need." Meng Ye bargained.
They looked at each other and nodded in agreement to Meng Ye's words as they indeed had to wait and meet Zhang Me according to what Zhang Me had told them.
The two men were Gue He and Bo Nan who had come looking for Zhang Me.
"If you can tell, who are you?" asked Meng Ye curiously.
"We are Ms. Zhang Me's slaves." replied I He.
"Slave?" reload Meng Ye made sure.
Li An who listened to their chatter turned her head to look at the two men who claimed to be Zhang Me slaves.
Bo Nan who saw Meng Ye's surprised look said, "We're her friends." Bo Nan replied with an awkward smile and was nod by Meng Ye.
Before long a crowd of people came and entered the tavern suddenly making Meng Ye panic. He directed Gue He and Bo Nan to wait in the kitchen and then came back out.
Still with a faint expression, Li An looked at someone walking up to him.
The person sat in the chair right in front of Li An. Meng Ye gasped in surprise, he walked closer to Li An when he saw that there were many people gathered in front of the tavern and also some who stood guard at the door made him think that his shop had been surrounded and something was going to happen.
Outside the shop was planted with a flag with a picture of a blood red-furred Weasel as the symbol of the Blood Red Weasel Organization that attracted the attention of people who roamed.
In a dark Red suit, thousands of members of the Red Blood Organization gathered so that no one dared to come close because of the obvious fear on their faces.
"They're the Blood Red Weasel Organization, what made them gather here?"
"What's been going on?"
"Is something big going to happen?"
Those who accidentally passed by and saw the presence of the Blood Red Weasel Organization began to guess what was going on.
The presence of the Blood Red Weasel Organization in the center of the city made an uproar throughout the city as this was the first time thousands of members of the Blood Red Weasel Organization had gathered in the center of the city.
While in the tavern Li An behaved indifferently, "Go, it will be a waste if you want to plunder this place" he said casually as he flicked his hands at the man sitting in front of him.
"Didn't you remember me?"
Li An frowned while recalling who the person before him was.
"You.." said Li An.
He remembered the man before him, the man who had looted his shop and had also come with Zhang Me, he was Feng Lu.
"Oh, I told you it would be in vain that you plundered this place" Li An said.
Feng Lu scratched his non-itchy nape, before Dang Dii, he had also plundered Li An's place but this time his goal was different.
"Listen to me first." said Feng Lu paused.
"I didn't come here to loot but me and the members of the Blood Red Weasel Organization wanted to rebuild your ruined region" Feng Lu explained.
Li An fixed his sitting position, Feng Lu's statement quite surprised him. No one did not recognize the Blood Red Weasel Organization in Lehan city, if anyone knew that they would build a tavern for Li An then no one would believe it.
"And this in exchange for yours being looted last night by our comrades" Feng Lu said.
Li An was still speechless, he noticed some people who were putting dozens of large sized bags on the table.
Li An's response moved, he opened the bag, Meng Ye who was standing behind Li An looked into the bag and how shocked they were when they saw there were many gold coins in it.
Suspicion began to run through Li An's heart, he grew increasingly distrustful of Feng Lu, his coin that was looted last night was not that much.
"What do you mean by all this?" Li An finally opened his voice and asked Feng Lu with a suspicious look.
"I'm just doing an order." replied Feng Lu.
Li An frowned deeply. The orders? whatdoes thatmean? thought.
He shook his head, "No, I don't want anything and get out of here immediately." Li An rejected as suspicious that Feng Lu had evil intentions by doing good to him.
"You don't have to worry about me, they won't dare to do anything to you" said Zhang me who suddenly came.
Zhang Me's arrival made all the members of the Blood Red Weasel Organization bow their heads including Feng Lu who immediately stood up from his seat then lowered his head.
All of that was noticed by Li An and Meng Ye. Are they downcast because of his daughter Zhang Me? thought they.
"You don't have to refuse father, they won't do anything bad" Zhang Me said directly sitting on his father's lap and hugging him.
Li An rubbed Zhang Me's head gently and said, "How can you be sure? " he asked in disbelief.
Zhang Me moved his lips closer to Li An's ear and whispered, "Because I am their master... "
Li An pulled Zhang Me's nose after hearing his whisper, "Based on a brat. " Said Li An
Zhang Me held his nose grimacing, "Momuu.." his whine moved to hug Meng Ye who was standing behind Li An.
Meng Ye only smiled gently hugging Zhang Me, "Are you hungry?" ask Meng Ye.
Zhang Me nodded enthusiastically, considering Meng Ye's cooking made him forget the pain in his nose because the food Meng Ye made was his favorite food.
"Well, let's go to the kitchen, there's two people looking for you, they're waiting for you in the kitchen."
Zhang Me frowned thinking who was looking for him.
Before walking following Meng Ye, he turned his head briefly towards Feng Lu and gestured to persuade Li An.
In the kitchen Zhang Me can clearly see two men who are no stranger to him.
With a face without a veil Zhang Me walked over with a smile then greeted Gue He and Bo Nan kindly.
While the one in greeting even gaping in surprise looked at Zhang Me.
Zhang Me clapped his hands in front of their faces while chuckling lightly, "Your drool is dripping." Zhang Me said.
They reflexively wiped their mouths using their hands making Zhang Me and Meng Ye who were cooking a laugh.
I He and Bo Nan lowered their heads into a misbehavior as they felt ashamed of the stare at Zhang Me fascinated.
"I'm sorry to forget that you're coming but I'm just outside and making you wait." said Zhang Me.
They looked at each other as if asking if the girl before him was their master? because Zhang Me was wearing a mask.
Bo Nan watched Zhang Me closely then shook his head and said, "No little princess, we don't mind waiting for you at all." she replied with a bow.
While I He put one hand closer to Zhang Me's face and made it seem to cover half of Zhang Me's face.
When I realized I immediately pulled his hand and lowered his head, "I'm sorry we didn't recognize you" said I realized.
Zhang Me smiled in response and said, "It doesn't matter, the important thing is that you don't tell everyone about how beautiful and enchanting I am."
I He and Bo Nan nodded while Meng Ye chuckled lightly while shaking their heads at Zhang Me's words.
"Alright, I hope you can wait a little while longer because I have to help my mother, after which I will talk to you guys" Zhang Me said looking at Meng Ye who was busy cooking.
I He and Bo Nan did not mind if they had to wait, after all they were just slaves who had to always hear the words of their master.
They had also offered to help but Zhang Me refused, he did not want any other interference in his mother's cooking other than him making Gue He and Bo Nan just sit watching.
In addition to their busy schedule, they were also busy chatting until Meng Ye asked, "Who are they?" tanyanya turned her head towards I and Bo Nan who were still faithfully watching them.
"Why mom?" ask Zhang Me.
"It's okay, I'm just curious because they said they were your slaves" explained Meng Ye.
Zhang Me laughed softly, "They really like to joke around with mom."
"They're my gege, I don't mind if I have a lot of gege?" continued Zhang Me while grinning indistinctly.
Meng Ye smiled, "Of course..."
I He and Bo Nan who heard their conversation looked at each other with expressions should hear Zhang Me saying that they were jeje not slaves.
