Huang Jing Er

***

Actually Huang Jing Er wants to going to capital city after being woken up by the lotus but at same time she have to recuperate while learn in Huang manor for two years. Two years is a long time for Huang Jing Er because her instinct says that she have to go to capital city soon. Gong Aunty and Old Man just let Huang Jing Er go from Huang manor if she could passed the test and the process is so tiring.

Huang Jing Er have to delay her journey almost two years. Even she feels so tired and bored but she knows that she has to hold that feelings. She realized that she will face the big dangerous when she starting her journey. She needs to prepared a lot of things when she decided to investigate Li family's matter.

She learns dancing, cooking, martial arts with the sword that pierce her heart. Huang Jing Er also learns embroidery and she often reading books in the library.

The two years passed and the Old Man and Aunty Gong let's her to get out from Huang Manor.

The journey from the Northeast to the capital city is not easy. They have to bring a lot of things to the capital city, especially Xiao Ran and An Ping. They were going from Huang manor to Capital City by carriage. Actually, Huang Jing Er still don't know what she should do in the Capital city. She just let her instinct guide her. She brings everything that they need in her peach pocket.

Her peach pocket can brings anything but for ordinary people they would see the peach pocket as a common small pocket. That's why no one knows if they come from the Northeast area because they don't know if they bring a lot of stuff in their pocket.

After almost a week of journey, They can see the gate of the Capital City but it seems the gate is guarded by some armies but An Ping had prepared everything before they arrived in the Capital City so they could pass the gate and entering the Capital City. Huang Jing Er never knew that the Capital City is so familiar to her than Huang manor. This city gives her the impression about home. It's like she just come back home after along time.

Huang Jing Er sees a lot of people passing the street. There is a lot of street food along the street. Actually, she is so tired but she wants to walk around the street and enjoy this scenery.

"An Ping, I want to walk from here." She said to An Ping because An Ping is the one who has been driving since dawn.

"Miss, do you want to eat here?" An Ping asked when they entered the Capital City.

"Uhm."

"We will accompany you Miss." An Ping said.

"No need. I want to walk around here by myself. I will find the home that you had rented for us." She said to them. Huang Jing Er doesn't need to worry because they can send her the address information through telepathy.

"Miss, are you sure?" Xiao Ran asked her.

"Of course." She said while she closed her eyes as her palm raised and she changed her appearance into a young man. Now, She is in white clothes with an emerald hair stick pierced her bun.

"Miss you looked so handsome but why did you change into a man?" An Ping asked her. She looked speechless when looked at her Lady.

"An Ping. I don't think that question has to be questioned. I don't want other people to see me as Huang Jing Er."

"But don't you think walking with this appearance will make people know you?" An Ping covered her mouth suddenly as Xiao Ran stared at her with a sharp gaze.

"How come they know me here?" Huang Jing Er just laughed because she sees An Ping's and Xiao Ran's face change suddenly since Huang Jing Er changed her appearance into a man. "Alright, I will go now. Don't forget to arrange everything."

"Alright, Miss." Xiao Ran and An Ping responded.

Huang Jing Er gets down from the carriage. She never think this Capital City is so crowded. Huang Jing Er sees a lot of people here. There were a lot of sellers along the street. Huang Jing Er walks around the streets because she was so bored by stayed in the carriage for a long time. Then she stopped at in front of an empty manor. When Huang Jing Er sees the manor, she feels something wrenching her heart. She doesn't understand why her tears are falling. This is so weird because Huang Jing Er never cried after she woken up. Huang Jing Er collects herself before leaving this sorrowful place.

Huang Jing Er thinks again, it's better for her to look for a restaurant to eat something because she was so hungry because she has not eaten yet since this morning. Disguising as a man is more convenient because no one comes closer or makes a mess with her.

Huang Jing Er order a lot of dishes because she was so hungry. When she's eating all the dishes on the table, there is a Young Master who goes into the same restaurant. That nobleman looked at her with teary eyes.

'Why did he look at me with such a gaze?'

Huang Jing Er tries to ignore him because she thinks a nobleman with high status like him will never approach someone like her so she keep eating her dishes but Huang Jing Er was stunned when he is sitting on the wood chair beside her. Huang Jing Er still don't understand why this Young Master looked at her as if they have known each other before. Huang Jing Er stared at him from head to toe curiously.

"Young Master, what are you doing here?" Huang Jing Er asked that man suspiciously.

That Young Master looked at her with a smile carved on his cold face.

"Li Jun Jie." He called Huang Jing Er.

'What? Li Jun Jie? Why does this man make me confused? I am not Li Jun Jie.' Huang Jing Er's thought

"Young Master, I am not Li Jun Jie and I don't know who you are." She said to him.

That Young Master still looked at Huang Jing Er. She sees his face becoming so gloomy. That Young Master took a deep breath before facing her.

"Can we talk for a while?" He said to her.

"It's alright."

They just wanted to talk but his subordinate came and approached him. That subordinates whispers something in his ears and makes that Young Master's face change.

"I am sorry but I have to go right now, can we talk at another time?" He asked Huang Jing Er elegantly.

"It's alright."

"Let me know your address so I will find you over there."

"I come from another city."

"Then tell me where you will stay tonight?" That Young Master asked her again.

"I still don't know."

"What if you stay in my place?"

Huang Jing Er's eyes widened because she thinks this Young Master is so mad. She doesn't know him but he asked her to stay at his place. That's not make sense.

"I am sorry but I can't stay at your place because I have to meet my family here." Huang Jing Er said to Young Master.

"Your family?" That Young Master looked a little bit confused.

"Yes, I have to meet them as soon as possible. I am sorry that I can't go to your place."

That Young Master looked at Huang Jing Er again. He smiled at her so she smiled at him back. His clothes made from premium silk and ordinary man must be couldn't afford it. Is he knows about Li Jun Jie?

"I am sorry Young Master, may I ask you something?"

"Uhm. Go ahead." He said to me.

"Young Master, do you know about the Li family?"

That man is stunned as he hears Huang Jing Er's question but he still manages to give a smile to her.

"I know. If you really want to know about them. Let's meet again tomorrow at the same time here." That Young Master stared at Huang Jing Er. "I have to go right now but let's meet tomorrow." That Young Master suggested her with a smile craved in his face.

"Alright."

Huang Jing Er thinks by meet him tomorrow will help her a lot so why doesn't try it? Huang Jing knows that Young Master is not an ordinary person so she has to be careful at the future.
