Chapter 52: Chapter forty eight
When the sky was dark, Lantian took Caihong off the flower abode.
Along the road, the daughter of Yang Fu walked and thought about the menu she should make for Yang Ying to taste.
Seeing that the younger gal was busy weening, the elder sis who walked next raised a question, "What are you thinking about?"
"Uh…" Caihong pulled herself back. "I am thinking about the food," she told.
"No need to think. Just food."
"You don't understand."
"I really don't understand. Why are you so worried?"
"I need to think. My food is very common and I am not good at cooking. I am afraid that I will make their store have trouble."
Lantian laughed as she heard the lassie's words. This made the younger woman feel a little bit bothered. She turned her face to glare at the person who was giggling and said, "Laughing enough!"
"Just laugh, is it wrong?"
"It's not wrong to laugh, but you laugh at me."
"I don't laugh at you." Lantian stopped her feet and Caihong also froze her walks but she didn't look at the female's side.
"I laughed because your words were amused," Lantian explained. "They are business people. They won't allow your food to destroy their business. So don't worry too much. Just cook. If they taste it and find that your food is not good, they will not accept your food."
"Your mouth says you don't laugh at me, but your mind, who knows!"
"My mind and my mouth are the same. If you don't believe it," Lantian grabbed the hand of the girl to put on her chest where her heart was, "touch it."
"Hey," Caihong yelled and quickly pulled her hand off.
Lantian smiled. "Why are you so nervous?" She stated. "Are you afraid to touch me?"
The girl didn't say a word; her face held an angry expression. Still the high lady didn't stop teasing her.
"How are you now? Shy? Don't be shy. My chest is not different from yours. And I am so kind, you can touch me anytime you want."
This grilled the colleen strongly. Because it was a big flame, her mouth was unable to speak; so, she chose to walk away – with her eyebrows knotted and her teeth clenched.
However, the steam inside the mind of the younger woman didn't bother Wu even a bit. On the other hand, she was very happy.
As the girl was walking ahead, she wished to follow, suddenly, she caught a voice behind her back. Though it was low, she could feel it was the sound of footsteps. It looked like someone was stalking them. Nonetheless, the female scholar didn't make the stalker know that she sensed them. She thought of a trick to play with them.
"Eh, pretty," she yelled, then walked fast to grab the hand of the young woman and drag her to another road.
"Where are you taking me to?" Caihong said.
But the elderly woman didn't tell. She just pulled the girl until arriving at a space, then in a quick manner, she dragged her to a dark small gap and put a finger across her lips, "Shh."
Seeing that sign, Caihong shut her mouth immediately.
The two women waited silently.
Next, two men, one was empty handed and another one was embracing a sack, walked past the spot they were - in the manner of stalking.
Caihong didn't recognize them but Lantian knew them clearly – they were Wu Feng and Liu Tao.
Because the males were not clever, they didn't even sense a little bit that the women were hiding behind them. They kept their feet forwards till they lost their shadows.
Seeing the males were far away, Lantian brought her girl out of the block.
"Who are they? Why do they follow us?" Caihong asked.
Lantian could guess that the girl was afraid, so she didn't tell the truth to reduce her fright.
"They might be confused," she said.
"How do you know?" Caihong stated.
"Just know that I know," Lantian claimed. "Let go. I will take you home."
Rapidly the two females left the site.
Not long after, they reached before the portal, and Caihong felt released. She opened the door on purpose to get in, then she remembered she didn't ask something, so she turned her face and said to the elder woman, "By the way, about tomorrow…"
"Tomorrow, we will go in the afternoon," Lantian stated.
"Where do we meet?"
"You can wait for me here."
"I am afraid that people in the house might see me if I stand here."
"Then we can meet at the store where we ate noodles last time."
"Okay." Caihong wagged her head. "I'm going in now."
"Um." Lantian nodded her head one. And like previous time, before leaving, she stood in front of the portal for many minutes. Until she was sure the girl arrived inside her camp safely, then she slid her body away.
