Lan JingYi's POV





I stoned in my stance as they left,
I have nothing to do but to light the lantern with Jin Ling,



" Are you ok? You're pale"
Jin Ling asked in worry ,

" Of course not. Damn... he is angry at me again... "
I murmured.


After we had lighted the lantern and had it be swept by the flowing river of the Golden Bridge,



" Jin Ling, I need to go to SiZhui."



" I'll help you find him."
Jin Ling replied,


" No. I'll be fine on my own."



" Are you sure? There's still a lot of people."
Jin Ling insisted,


" I'll be fine on my own, thanks."
I replied directly,



" Is that so ... I'll head back to the hall for the closing of the rites then."

We both nodded with each other and go our way, I swam to the crowd of people, searching for SiZhui but to no avail,

Where are they ?


I keep on turning everywhere until I came across a two maidens murmuring enough to have my ears hear it,


" Is it true? That disciple attends here now? "


" Yes. He even talked with the new Sect Leader awhile! Shameless!"



" The Sect leader must not know him that he's like that."




" Probably, since the new Sect Leader is too young and doesn't care about petty rumors but this time, I think that disciple from Qinghe got his target... "


" Really.. isn't it from the GusuLan Sect? That little lad must not know that he has been dragged by a cut-sleeve!"

God... tell me I'm comprehending it wrong...

I turned to the maidens and exclaimed desperately, their eyes widened from shock,



" Please tell me, where are they?! "



"W-Who?"



" The people you are----- I mean, that one young Qinghe disciple and that Lan disciple , have you seen where they had headed? "


" Err... I-I saw they both head out, maybe back to hall or to Koi garden? "



After the maiden answered, I immediately expressed gratitude then
ran to the direction that they had pointed,



I got back to the hall of the ceremony yet they're nowhere to be found,



Damn it!


Where did that bastard took my SiZhui!!?



I'm getting anxious whilst searching, looking everywhere to the nearest rooms and halls,



I got to the garden of Koi where a lot of different spring flower blooms,
And not too far from me is a little pavilion beneathe the flowers,



I approached and almost had my eyes bulge out from my sockets,


I'm flaring from fury, I grabbed the hilt of my sword,
