Rewinding the time, we came back two days ago when Ye Tian Yun and Jun Xie left the Purple Spring Garden and went back to the Fang Clan. From there, they were going to visit the Xuan Tavern.
Xuan Tavern was in the Southern District, at quite a distance from the Gao Clan.
It was already the talk-of-the-town because of its grandness and majestic appearance, and its background - the Gao Clan - had directly made it one of the most prominent places in the Southern District, even if this place wasn't open to the public yet.
The rising three-story-high, this building wasn't the highest, but it already had its own appeal to it, which attracted gazes and turned heads of passersby who couldn't help but pause and admire the whole building.
Still, the most important thing that made this restaurant important was that this place was going to treat everyone equally - from beggar to king, all were equal. With cheap yet tasty food, such as its signature dish 'Burger' and even some full plate dishes, many people were waiting for the next day - the day when this place would open to the public!
The first floor was fast food-related, which included the Burger and another yet-to-be-revealed dish.
The second floor was for the full-plate main course, and the owner, Young Master Gao Xuan, had hinted that a special main course was designed, and it would be the most unique in the whole Lower Heavens!
The third floor was a private area for the young master and other staff members.
Similar to the one they (Gao Xuan) had in the Gracious Sword Sect, this restaurant also had a see-through glass wall on the third floor.
And in the main hall was a huge table with a big seat on the other side and two normal seats on another side.
But the seats were empty because the person who was supposed to occupy these was standing close to the Glass wall, facing the outside world, observing and waiting.
The person was a young lady and had her arms crossed in front of her.
Her eyes were staring straight at the end of the main road as if waiting for someone.
She wasn't even blinking, afraid she might miss something.
Just then, the door opened, and a young man walked in.
"I knew you were here, Third Sister." The young man smiled and took a seat at the nearby couch.
"What happened, Second Brother?" The young lady, Gao Suyin, asked without turning around.
"You know what it is. Father doesn't want you to roam around for the next few weeks. It's doesn't look good for a young lady who's about to get married to roam around the city." Gao Long sighed.
"Oh?" Gao Suyin smiled, "How am I supposed to work then?"
"Like the usual way?" Gao Long shrugged, "He just doesn't want you to be in your real appearance."
"Hm," Gao Suyin nodded, "I understand that, but today, I just don't feel like it."
"You don't feel like it?" Gao Long frowned, "Yin'er, you have been acting strangely for the last few days, I know it's most probably because of the marriage, but you need to understand that we don't have any choice in this matter."
Gao Suyin frowned, "Couldn't this whole 'grand plan' wait for one more year? I would have prepared everything by then."
"It could have, but that bastard King is acting too weird. Father is afraid he might try something against you… or Gao Xuan."
"Sigh, if only Fang Chen hadn't come to the Capital City." Gao Suyin sighed, "This whole farce of a marriage wouldn't even be discussed."
Gao Long nodded, "True, but he came. Anyway, that's something we can't change, and now, marriage is inevitable. Just don't appear in public for the next few weeks, alright?"
"Alright," Gao Suyin smiled, "But I can't believe he sent you all the way just to say this, Brother. Doesn't he know that I prefer to work behind the scenes rather than be in the spotlight?"
"He knows this very well," Gao Long nodded, "But it's just these rituals and stuff. You know how seriously this matter of marriage is taken, right? He just wishes you to be cautious."
"I know." Gao Suyin replied.
"Alright then, I will take my leave." Gao Long stood up.
"You just came for this?" Gao Suyin frowned, "Why not wait for some more time?"
"Hm? What for?"
"Why not have dinner here?"
"Here?" Gao Long frowned, "This place is ready to serve food?"
"It is," Gao Suyin nodded, "And today, some guests will be coming. I would love it if you could join them."
"Oh? Who are they?" Gao Long couldn't help but ask.
Gao Suyin smiled, and unfolding her arms; she pointed at the far end of the main street, "Them."
"Hm?" Gao Long moved and stepped beside his sister, gazing at the two carriages entering the main street, his lips curled up, "Fang Clan?"
"Yes," Gao Suyin nodded, "Young Master Fang and his friends are here for dinner."
"You invited them?"
"Un."
Gao Long smiled, "Alright, I will have dinner with him."
"Really?"
"That's the least I can do," Gao Long shrugged, "And didn't you say there's someone in fang Chen's circle who might cure the poison inside me?"
"Yes." Gao Suyin nodded, "But it will take some time. He said the Dantian Mending Pill, even though it isn't a high-tier pill, it's the most complicated to refine in its category."
"That's normal." Gao Long smiled, "And it's already been three-four years since I got into this state. A few more months is no big deal."
Gao Suyin smiled and lightly nodded.
…
The carriages on the main road slowly moved towards the station and stood in front of the newly built tavern.
As it came to a halt, a small crowd formed around it, as many curious eyes stared with interest.
The gates of the first carriage were slowly opened, and a young man walked out.
"Young Master Fang Chen!"
...
A/n: Sorry for my sudden absence. This will be my last break till we finish this goddamn story. No matter what happens, you will get 1ch/d at least. The usual will be 2ch/d, more if this book earns.
