Kapitel 25: Master and maidservant
"Ah! Little Brother Shi Jin! My master and I mean no harm to both of you. We were just enticed by your cooking.." Wan Yan immediately blurted out.
Sun Xun merely shot him a pointed look. How could his guard reveal that he was led here by his nose and stomach?
Wan Yan gulped but didn't retract his words.
Song Jia glanced at the man called Sun Xun. He was still shooting daggers at Wan Yan when he didn't notice Song Jia's eyes on him.
'This man.. Do people describe him as handsome or beautiful?'
She could tell that his looks alone would be perfect for the movie screen, or photo shoots.
His brows were straight and sharp, eyes looked golden when the light from the sun hit it, his eyelids were perfectly curved and slanted at the end. His nose was tall and straight and his lips were thin and rosy, the upper looking like a bow. If he had a more rounded face, he would be mistaken for a girl. But his sharp jaw and his bobbing Adam's apple let anyone know that he's a man.
He didn't look to be her age. He even looked older than Wan Yan who still had playful boyish looks. This man looked like how you would describe aristocrats.
Song Jia withdrew her gaze before he noticed.
It was useless though, since he noticed it either way. He just let her measure him up just as how he did earlier when she was in conversation with Wan Yan earlier.
Although she was disguised as a man with a sharper jawline and fake Adam's apple. Her almond eyes that were light brown, long lashes that fanned her cheeks, long straight eyebrows that framed her face and her soft-looking plump rosy red lips that hid a set of clear white teeth. Even in her disguise, she looked like a painting. Without the illusion, she was really a peerless beauty. Her temperament however didn't match what you would expect people around her age to have. She was calm and was even able to think logically.
"It's fine.. I'm flattered that my cooking could entice your tastes." Song Jia chuckled.
At least she didn't feel any hostility or evil motives coming from the two strangers.
At the moment there's no reason for her to pick a fight with them. If she does, she would only be on the losing end. As for them trespassing, just strengthening the array would suffice.
Sun Xun, who heard what she said, subconsciously curled his lips in a smirk.
"So, where are you off to after this, big brothers?"
'She's kicking us out already..' Sun Xun's eyes twitched a little.
"We're.." Wan Yan was about to come up with some story.
"We're off to wander around in the city."
"Oh? Is it your first time here?"
"Not really, we've traveled here before." Wan Yan went ahead and served himself some more of the food, unwilling to part with it yet. "Mmm.. This is so good… Little brother, can I visit you again? Your food tastes better than those restaurants! Hmm! Maybe in a few months, I'll come over again"
"Ah.. I won't be staying here that long.. I'm only here to visit my Senior brother. I'll be off in a few days.."
"Eh? You are? Where are you off to?" Wan Yan was already beginning to miss the food.
"Mmm.. I'm not sure. I'm taking these remaining days to think about it." Song Jia quickly finished up her meal and wiped her mouth.
"Eh? Little brother, are you done already?"
"Haha.. I'm full already, big brother. Also, I can't eat too much before I practice. It will only upset my stomach." She tapped her abdomen as she said it.
"Practice? What do you want to practice?"
"Didn't I mention that I'm here to cultivate? My Senior brother has told me to stick to the plan that we came up with so I could have a good foundation. This morning we were meditating, so in a few moments, we would practice martial arts."
"Ehh.. that sounds fun! I can help you out then! I'll teach you some moves and I can spar with you!" Wan Yan was ecstatic.
"Ah.. no.. no.. I don't want to trouble you.." She kept waving her hands, rejecting the idea.
"Oh.. no trouble at all. It's no trouble. I'm done anyway.."
Since Wan Yan kept insisting, she finally accepted his offer.
Even Sun Xun has already wiped his mouth clean, indicating he was done with his food.
"I'll go clean these up then, Young master." Lu Ping gathered the plates and left for the hut's kitchen.
Since this is how her mistress wanted to be called, she referred to him this way.
Song Jia walked a little away from the cherry blossom tree followed by Wan Yan. She focused her spiritual energy to aid in digestion. She didn't want to hurt her abdomen while making moves.
"Ready when you are.."Song Jia and Wan Yan stood opposite and a few feet away from each other.
Song Jia waited until Lu Ping came back. She wanted her to get pointers from the moves.
Sun Xun also found a huge rock and went to sit on top. One of his feet planted on the rock and his arm rested on his knee.
"Please go easy on me, big brother!" She cupped her hands and bowed slightly.
"Of course, of course! Make your move first!" Wan Yan grinned at her.
A moment later, Song Jia leisurely ran up to him and threw a punch one after the other then added by kicks. It looked so amateurish. Wan Yan only needed to move his head to the sides to avoid getting hit.
'This is too easy!' Wan Yan even whistled.
Sun Xun looked at Song Jia's back view, his lips pursed. 'This kid, does she really see my guard as her toy?'
Then a minute later, Song Jia disappeared from Wan Yan's view, then a second later, he felt his cheek ache horribly, his neck was about to crack as it was forced to twist.
She only gave him a minute to catch his bearings then started her onslaught of attacks. She would disappear and only appear on either sides, behind him or even from above his head. He became a punching bag for her.
'Darn, was he just testing me out earlier? Looks like I have to take him seriously!'
Wan Yan wiped the smear of blood from his lip.
His eyes went from relaxed to fierce.
He began to speed up his moves and to actually give an aggressive attack on her. After all, he saw her as a male.
Still, they were almost an even match. If only Song Jia has to train the body to increase her stamina, then she would have defeated him.
"I surrender. Thank you, big brother, for teaching me! I learned a lot." She cupped her hands, bowing to him.
"No problem. No problem. You're really good! I even learned something today!"
"My turn.." The voice sent shivers down her spine.
