The well-dressed lady said in a low and hoarse voice.

“She must be Ms. Lovina?” Gian thought to himself. Although he had heard of this famous superstar, he had never seen her closely for two reasons. One was that this lady never accepted a private interview. The other was that Gian didn’t have a preference for music, so he had never seen her at such a short-range before. He was about to ask but was interrupted.

Lord Yu Ming touched his sleeve, and a bunch of snow-white roses appeared from nowhere. His hands trembled slightly as he handed it over. “Madam, I’m sorry to bother you without an appointment. Please don’t blame me! This is a jade rose planted by my mother herself. She specially asked me to bring it to you! “Holding the flowers in his hands, Yu Ming smiled like a shy boy. It was a rare opportunity for him to get close to the goddess in his heart, and he was too excited to control himself.

“What beautiful roses! Thank you for taking care of me these days. Please say thank you to Royal Highness for me again.” Ms. Lovina took the bouquet and smelled it gently. She praised happily.

“Well…I wonder if you…If you have time… “Yu Ming hesitated and wanted to invite his idol to his house. Suddenly, loud footsteps came from outside. He turned his head in surprise.

A tall and imposing figure slowly walked in from the still open glass door. He looked about 40 years old. He wore a dark green military uniform with gold rims, a silver medal of colonel on his shoulder, a long black scabbard kymn on his waist, and a military cap with a clamped golden badge to the right side by him revealing a neat brown short hair. His figure was as straight as a sword, his eyes sharp, his face dignified, and his beard was shaved clean with only green residue left.

“Drillmaster!” As soon as Yu Ming saw the officer, he was like a mouse seeing a cat. He stood at attention in a hurry, feeling restless. This time, he rashly came to see his idol. He didn’t know if this usually strict teacher would punish him.

The officer looked at him in silence and didn’t ask more. He turned to Ms. Lovina  and said, “Ms. Lovina if you have nothing else to say, I’m leaving now.” His voice was magnetic but rigid, and there was a hint of loneliness and arrogance in his words.

“Thank you very much for your help! Sir Ye Chi. “The lady greeted him with a smile.

The officer nodded in response. Out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at Gian beside the sofa and strode towards him, sizing him up in confusion. His sharp gaze made Gian’s soul tremble. He subconsciously swallowed his saliva. He wondered why this distinguished guest with an astonishing aura was staring at him. The officer keenly sensed the nervousness of the young man. Just as he was about to ask, Yu Ming, who was beside him, hurriedly explained for Gian.

“Mr. instructor! He came with me! “Yu Ming was afraid that Gian would say something that he shouldn’t say, so he hurried forward and pulled the young man to his side. He patted his shoulder as if everything was fine, but the stiff smile at the corners of his mouth made the atmosphere even more awkward.

Gian was unprepared by Yu Ming caught on the shoulder, startled all over the goosebumps. When he was about to explain his identity, he suddenly saw a pile of imperial edict on the ground, which made him speechless. He glanced at Yu Ming, who was laughing awkwardly beside him. He thought that he’d better not say it in case he couldn’t explain it clearly, so he swallowed back the words that were about to reach his mouth and chuckled dryly.

Yu Ming’s words were too far fetched, and Ye Chi obviously didn’t believe it. The hall’s atmosphere was awkward, and the lady beside didn’t want to be in a stalemate like this. She said softly, “I see. Is this little boy also here for me?”

Finally, someone helped him out. Gian heaved a sigh of relief in his heart. He bowed to the lady and introduced himself, “nice to meet you, Madam! My name is Gian. I’m the special assistant sent by the student union to accompany you… “

“Special assistant?” The lady was a little surprised. “I don’t seem to hear your highness mention that he will send an assistant here…”

“Well…” With his eyes wide open, he wondered why Shane hadn’t made it clear to others. What should he do now? He looked at the officer whose eyes became more and more serious. He hurriedly patted on Yu Ming’s shoulder and said, “it’s true that the lord Shane sent me here. You can prove that..Am I right, Yu Ming? “He winked at the debris on the ground, and in a moment of desperation, there was even a hint of coercion.

“……Yes, yes. “Yu Ming had no choice but to admit it. He cursed in his heart, “Damn it! How dare he pats me on the shoulder? I will throw the clothes away when I come back.” Although he was very reluctant, he knew that he would end up with a more miserable result if his little action was discovered by the drillmaster. He could only grit his teeth and nod.

“I didn’t expect the crown prince to worry so much…” The lady smiled gracefully and praised, “Your Highness, did you send your classmate here on purpose? How considerate. I heard that you and the crown prince don’t get along well with each other, now I think that may not true. “

Yu Ming smiled awkwardly. He thought to himself, ‘I’m not here to help Shane run errands”. But it’s not appropriate for the instructor to speak it out on his side. He also keeps his resentment in Gian.’.

Ye Chi, who had been watching silently, showed no expression, like a cold statue. Now that everything was clear, he only nodded slightly and said, “let’s go” to Yu Ming. Then he turned around and strode out of the living room.

Yu Ming lowered his head and waited for him. When he saw him walk out of the hall, he quickly said to the lady, “Madam! If you are free, please remember to come to Yu’s Palace! “Without waiting for the lady’s response, he hurriedly followed the officer and disappeared outside the glass door.

Ms. Lovina watched the two leave with a smile. She turned around and looked at Gian with a strange expression. The young man only felt an invisible pressure rushing towards him, and his heartbeat faster involuntarily. He tightly closed his mouth and watched the radiant lady slowly walking forward.

“Don’t be nervous, little boy…” The lady comforted him softly as she noticed the young man’s uneasiness. She walked to Gian with an elegant smile. When she saw the strange eyes, she naturally praised them. Then she smiled at the young man and said, “you have a good relationship with the two princes…”

“Not bad, not bad…” Gian scratched his head in embarrassment, but he was less nervous.

“Do you have any other message from my lord?”

“No, ma’am. He asked me to come here and listen to you.”

“I see…” The lady thought for a while and said slowly, “I don’t have anything else to do for you, but…Since your highness is so kind, please come to the square with me tomorrow morning. “

“Yes, madam!” Gian nodded and asked hesitantly, “then…Can I leave now? “

The lady nodded with a smile. Gian grabbed his backpack from the sofa, bowed to her, and said goodbye. Then he left the hotel and rushed to the study. He was chuckling to himself. Now he could consider both sides.

Ms. Lovina stared at the young man’s back silently until he disappeared. After thinking for a while, she walked to the sofa with a faint smile, but the white roses in the glass bottle, and slowly went upstairs along the stone ladder on the side of the hall.

The second day was Saturday. Gian had arrived at Flood Icing Hotel as scheduled early in the morning. However, since there was no imperial edict this time, the gate guards could not enter with a long face. The young man stood at the door and was thinking about something anxiously. Not far away, a huge white luxury motorbike slowly opened. The carriage, which was twice as spacious as an ordinary motorbike, was inlaid with shining gold threads. The thick square head of the motorbike was decorated with a grey and white flag of Agnesa.

The luxury car stopped in front of the gate, and an old man in a black butler’s uniform came out. His face was very thin, but there were a few wrinkles. His short white hair was combed meticulously, and there seemed to be a smile on the corner of his mouth forever.

The old butler nodded at the guard, turned around, and saw Gian in the school uniform. He smiled politely at the guard. Just as he was about to enter, he heard a soft voice from a distance, “Louise.” The young man followed the voice and saw Ms. Lovina, wearing a white straw hat and a light-colored gauze skirt, walking out of the hotel alone.

“It’s you, my little boy.” The lady walked to the door and smiled at Gian. Her eyes were a bit tentative. “What a coincidence. Let’s go now.”

The lady lifted her hemline and got into the car before he could answer. Gian hurried forward to say hello to the old man and followed him into the car. The old butler gently pushed the door and closed it. He turned around and sat on the driver’s seat. He pressed the button of the white fluorescent energy in the center of the control plate. After a slight magic wave, the motorcycle slowly sped up.

The interior of this luxury car was luxuriously decorated. There was a crystal board inlaid with fireflies on the top of its head, and there was a fluffy beige lining around it. Beneath its feet was a thick, painted carpet. Such a warm style made even Gian feel a little sweaty. He had been sitting there for a long time and was about to ask the lady about the concert’s details, but he only heard a light whistle. The car slowly stopped, and they got off one after another.

Gian looked around and saw a wide stone square. The edges of the rectangular flower beds around were already surrounded by a high iron fence. In the center of the square, there was a huge round grey cloth tent, which covered the sun tightly, and no one could see what was inside.

“Louise, You can pick him up in the evening. I’m worried about others. “The lady whispered to the old man and led Gian into the tent.

The young man narrowed his eyes and looked around. There were only a few people in the tent at the moment, and it seemed empty. The middle of the ground was covered with a thick layer of black soil. For some reason, several workers with a wooden plow were busy pushing the soil flat and pressed it.

“Okay, my little boy. You can stay here. I have to go backstage to make the final preparation. “Ms. Lovina reminded him with a smile when she saw him in a daze.

Gian was staring at the black mud in confusion. Upon hearing this, he quickly said yes and watched the woman slowly walk around the black soil and enter the small room behind the tent. Although it was a pity that he couldn’t see how the show’s preparation was going on, Gian wasn’t too curious. He stared at the staff who were plowing, and his mind was filled with inexplicable guesses about the soil.

Suddenly, someone slapped him on the back of his body, causing him to tremble all over his body. He immediately turned around and saw the little fat guy, Lu Ang, standing at the entrance of the tent and smiling at him.

“Oh, it’s you! You scared me! “Gian angrily pounced over and hooked his shoulder, complaining. He rubbed his friend’s round head and asked in confusion, “Why are you here too?”

The little fat boy turned his head to avoid the hand, straightened his hair unhurriedly, coughed, and pointed at the white badge on his chest. “See? I’m also a student union member!”

“Hey!Oh, my God! Look at you! “Seeing his complacent look, Gian laughed and cursed. He grabbed his chubby face with both hands and gently pulled it. The little fat guy hurriedly raised his hand to resist. Just as the two of them were laughing and joking, a stern voice suddenly came from outside the tent, “Hello! Two little guys, make way for us! “

The two young men quickly moved to the side. Gian turned its head and saw two figures in cloaks standing in the bright sun outside. The man in front of them was young, with thick square eyebrows and a yellow face. He wore a long white robe of the secret sect, and his chest was embroidered with a Golden Phoenix mark. Behind him was an old dark green cloak, with a hood covering his entire face. He only saw the long white beard hanging from his lower jaw to his waist.

It was the young man in white who scolded them just now. He gave the two of them another cold look, retreated to one side, and bowed, “teacher, the preparations are almost done. Please check them.”

The old man in the green robe slowly walked into the tent. When he passed by Gian, the young man smelled a strong fragrance of plants and took a deep breath. The old man stood down in the tent and looked at the scale of the black soil. He nodded slightly. The white man hurried forward and shouted, “retreat!” and he called the staff to retreat to the door together.

The old man slowly took out a small cloth bag from the cloak with his right hand and poured all the things inside into the soil. Then he put away the bag and raised his hands horizontally. A violent magic wave immediately appeared in the tent. The old monk’s fingers flashed with an emerald green divine light, reflecting the strangeness of the closed round account. His old cloak fluttered in the wind, but his long white beard remained motionless as if it was extremely heavy. After a while, the soil under his feet trembled, and thick dark green vines stretched out from the ground and quickly climbed over the whole tent. The old nun stood still in the sea of vines. He gently waved his arms and directed the vines to slowly interweave into a predetermined shape. Not long after, the majestic demonic energy gradually subsided. The old man withdrew his hands and still stood there. After seeing this miraculous scene, Gian was completely stunned.

At this time, the situation in the tent was totally different from before. The dark green vines overlapped and formed a huge round stage, which was more than a hundred meters long. From a distance, it looked like a lotus leaf that was held up. The leaf’s small roots were crisscrossed and twisted into many thick and luxury patterns, which was somewhat wild. Eight thick vines around the round platform rushed straight to the dome’s top, forming a sparse net above it. Small pink and white flowers covered the top of the net, and a bunch of flowers in the shape of magic flowers was hanging in the center of the net, shining under the dim light in the tent.

The old man in green robe slowly looked around the wooden platform, nodded with satisfaction, turned around, and slowly shook out of the tent. The young man in white ordered the staff in detail and hurried to follow the teacher.

It was the first time that Gian had seen such a massive technique of super-powerful strength. Compared to this old man’s majestic strength, the cyclone that Yu Ming had created was truly a piece of cake. While he was amazed, he couldn’t help but secretly envy. The strength of a warrior was obvious at this moment, and there was a world of difference between him and a mortal.

“Who is that, sir?” Gian guessed, while Lu beside him seemed to know what he was thinking and triumphantly explained it to him.

“That’s Elder Mu Yun from the Secret Mission. The crown prince specially invited her to help!hey!Except for our highness, few people in the capital can invite this old man! “The little fat guy patted his chest as if he was the crown prince.

“Oh…Elder Mu Yun… That’s awesome! “Gian nodded in confusion and continued to look at the miraculous vine stage.

“When will the concert start?” He murmured, looking forward to the performance.
