As I promised, I will try to write at least 1000 words. Sorry if it took at least... what? A year? To write the next chapter😔. Sorry for y'all that had been reading this since the start. You know how people get bored easily when watching something repeatedly. AND I WAS SHOCKED THAT IT WAS ONLY IN THE 3RD EPISODE OF "APOTHECARY DIARIES" 🤯🤯. But still, I'll try to write more words than last time. By the way, thank you so much for almost 1k readings♡. 88 words.

As you all know, Lyly saw Jinshi trying to 'observe' [disturb] him from working. He could sense the jealousy from almost all the girls around him. He seriously didn't get why on Earth, Jinshi had to be this handsome for an eunuch.

When he heard that Jinshi had work to do, he was GLAD to say the least. "You should finish your work, sir Jinshi." Lyly said, after being done spreading the cloth on the string to dry it.

"Huh? Why." Jinshi whined, as he didn't want to leave this person and just stay by his side. Gaoshun sighed, trying to let his lord finish the work of today.

"Then you can rest or do anything throughout the day, that's why." Lyly answered. He always hated working or doing chores, but if he could rest or anything, then he would do that first, just to rest or do anything he wants.

"... fine." Jinshi mumbled, and went to work, which Gaoshun was in shock because Jinshi was as stubborn as an ox. Lyly was glad, but something inside him made him feel... sad?

After finishing his work in noon, he was thinking of doing something else before having an idea he could do to pass the time.

He walked around the palace, before finally finding a place full of flowers, or field of flowers. He sat down and grabbed some flowers that had interesting colors. He never thought he'd see red spider lily here, since it was rare in China.

He hasn't drawn something using the colors of flowers for sometime now. He first smashes the flowers a bit, before adding slight water and drawing with it. But he needed some paper first.

"Hey, Scarred women." Jinshi said, smiling at him. Lyly got surprised and looked up, and thought for a while before saying "You're just in time. I was trying to get a paper, can you lend me one or two? And please stop calling my Scarred Women, ypu know I'm a man.".

"But it has such memories, the first time I met you, you were almost silent all the time, and your glares sure are scary at times." Jinchi said, playfully and chuckled. Lyly looked at Jinshi as if he was crazy, but thought about it before mumbling "You're right."

Jinshi thought Lyly would disagree, not agree with it. He saw Lyly making something with one kind of flowers, blue orchid. He doesn't make flower crowns but it was fun to do it once in a while. When he was finished he put it on top of Jinshi, and he said "It's blue orchid. I thought it might look good on you, and I was right." His gray eyes looking at Jinshi's purple eyes. It looked like Lyly's gray eyes were just a background to Jinshi's purple eyes, which was in the centre of attention.

Jinshi, for a split second, felt breathtaken. Not because he was surprised, but it was because of how beautiful Lyly looked, under the setting sun. It looked like he was being chosen by the gods.

Gaoshun, who felt like being thrid-wheeled but didn't mind it, felt like the sun setting was pretty. Not because he saw how Jinshi looked at Lyly like he was some kind of fragile object, needed to be taken with care.

Lyly, who was smiling slightly, thought Jinshi looked quite beautiful and handsome, even with his feminine face that could seduce both men and women.

"Sir Jinshi, we better go now. The sun is about to set." Gaoshun said, knocking Jinshi back to reality. "O-Oh! Right! Uh, see you soon, Scarred wo- I- I mean Lyly!" Jinshi nervously said.

Lyly looked surprised, Jinshi never called him by his name. Today almost felt like it was the first time Jinshi ever said his name out loud like this.

.... How do you like it :). I think I needed to put more Jinshi and Lyly's relationship as I am making them both be gay for each other.

So, question time >:D

Do you want an angsty ending, or a happy ending? Let me know. If it is an angsty ending, it will probably finish faster.

And I couldn't keep the promise of making it to 1000 words, but hope you like it^^

Have a good/worst day ever, bye.😊😊
