It was not difficult to enter the Shen family property the guards did not stop me or ask questions, "It seems that there are some advantages to being scorned." after arriving in the courtyard I went to my room, took off my cloak and I hid the remaining coins.
I took the ingredients and went to the kitchen in my past life I had no permission to cook after asking a lot my parents let me cook and I could learn I loved to make dishes from various places to prove and over time I stayed very good at cooking.
It was not difficult to make a good dish and when I was finishing I heard a voice behind me "Who are you?".
Shen Xiao was in a room thinking about his son when he heard a noise in the kitchen 'Who dared to come in after I said I wanted to be alone?' angrily went towards the kitchen, the door was open and a delicious smell was leaving. Coming close in silence Shen Xiao saw his grandson cooking 'Why is he here? And what clothes are these when he left today he not just wore a simple shorts? Did Shen Wen buy it?' he dismissed the idea even though he was away he knew that Shen Wen didn't care about his eldest son.
When Shen Xiao saw that Shen Hua was running out he decided to go talk to him so as not to scare him decided to ask him who he was.
"Old man don't get behind others or someone may think you're a pervert. And when you are at someone else's house It's polite you often introduce yourself first." recovering from the fright the old man gave him Shen Hua said it all in one breath with his hand on his chest.
Shen Xiao was stunned 'Pervert? I? How can he said this to his grandfather? And what did he say about living here?' recovering from the shock Shen Xiao decided not to tell who he was and observe the young man for a while "Cought cought, sorry I'm a new servant here and I didn't know that anyone lived here I thought was abandoned I caught one room here hope you don't mind." with a friendly smile Shen Xiao spoke calmly to Shen Hua.
"I don't understand how someone so old can be new to something. Ahhh, if you've got a room you can stay I don't want to make you move after all it shouldn't be easy for someone as old as you. Take a soup here you must be hungry." extending a bowl of soup to Shen Xiao, Shen Hua spoke in the same tone that Shen Xiao used before.
'Hum, how can this kid talk to me like that even though he don't know I'm his grandfather I'm still an elder and he should show respect. It didn't start with a good impression but let's see some more.' with a smile Shen Xiao grabbed the bowl and took the soup,' Delicious, ok if he cook like this must be a good person.' taking all the soup in one sip Shen Xiao held out the bowl "One more please."
With a smile Shen Hua put more soup for old man "Here if you want more you can get it I'm tired I'm going to sleep see you tomorrow." after speaking Shen Hua went to the bedroom leaving Shen Xiao having the soup.
---------
The next day Shen Hua woke up early made breakfast for him and Shen Xiao ate quickly and headed to the casino to get more money.
Just after leaving the room Shen Xiao appeared out of nowhere with a gust of wind looked at the table and then to the exit, 'Let's see where you are going.' smiling Shen Xiao followed Shen Hua while eating breakfast that Shen Hua had prepared 'This kid really knows how to cook.'
One block from the casino Shen Hua covered his face with a cloth 'What is this boy doing?' seeing Shen Hua cover his face Shen Xiao was curious about what he would do.
'One casino he going to play?' when he saw Shen Hua enter the casino Shen Xiao if has disguis and entered the casino behind Shen Hua.
----------
"Ahhh, I got it ten silver coins today but now nobody wants to throw with me anymore." after playing until lunchtime Shen Hua went back to eat at the same restaurant of day before.
Shen Xiao looked at his amazed grandson he was watching Shen Hua all morning 'Did he win so much in just half a day at a casino with such low stakes if he was playing at a better casino how much could he earn?' all morning long Shen Hua has not lost any games in fact he has won all with great ease.
'The Element Poker championship is coming if he plays for us I'm sure we can make it to the finals, maybe even win' the Element Poker championship was held among the noble families once a year and involved a lot of money and rare items the Shen family did not have good at games and players always being among the worst while the Min family had two skilled players who could make it to the finals and one of them was always the winner. Excited by the idea Shen Xiao began planning how to put Shen Hua as the family representative without exposing his identity.
After eating Shen Hua headed for the Armor shop he visited the day before. Watching street Shen Hua saw a cafe opposite the shop he went to over there, sat table near the window overlooking the armor shop ordered a coffee and began to watch the armor shop.
'Why is he eating again?' Shen Xiao followed Shen Hua's gaze and realized he was watching the armor shop 'Why is he looking at the store? Does he want to buy something and not have the money?' Shen Xiao soon dismissed the idea ' If he really wanted to buy something he would be in the casino getting money. Wait, isn't this one of the Shen family stores?'.
While watched the store Shen Hua saw something he did not expect 'Why are my two younger brothers entering the store? They want to buy a weapon? When they entered the shop the salesman who had thrown me out was being very courteous, looks like a servant greeting his master. Wait, does this store belong to the Shen family? I'll keep watching if they go out without paying so I can confirm that this store is one of the Shen family business. If it is really one of the Shen family business it will be another reason to steal it.' when the two of them had just chosen what they wanted they took it and left without paying seeing they scene Shen Hua gave a scary smile 'Sit down and Wait I'll start our revenge on the Shen family tonight.'
Seeing the same scene Shen Xiao was very disappointed with his grandchildren 'They take for themselves store items like that. Tsk I'll talk to Shen Wen tonight about this. No I must personally teach these children the way they should act.' lost in thought Shen Xiao didn't see Shen Hua's smile when he looked at him he had a cold emotionless look on his face 'I must talk to Shen Wei about how he treats Xiao Hua Maybe I should get a set of armor for him too, even if it is not useful for him it can still make him happy.'
While shen Xiao thought, Shen Hua continued to watch the shop after a while a servant arrived and handed a ring to the seller even though they tried not to show the exchange to anyone it was easy see, after handing over the ring the servant quickly returned path I had made 'A space ring! It really is a space ring I read that the ones with the smallest space have 3 square meters inside. But why would a servant deliver him and leave soon after?' thinking a little Shen Hua came up with a theory 'Maybe it's a new shipment? He must have given it to the seller for him to put up for sale, in which case he would stay here tonight to take inventory.'
'Looks like I'll have to change the plan a bit no problem, now I can use the seller has my pawn.' determined Shen Hua got up and went in search of an herb store.
Shen Xiao did not follow Shen Hua he went towards the Shen family home, his face was not smiling as always he was with a very dark expression 'I have to teach Shen Wen a lesson, not only does he not raise his children but also don't discipline your servant. How can they make such an exchange in broad daylight on a crowded street they are asking to rob our shop.' he knew the items that were in the ring were the weapons and armor he collected on his trip all were Rare items and valuable a lot if stolen would be a big loss.
Unaware of his father's fury Shen Wei was at a dinner with the Emperor and his family his sons and wife were also present he wanted an arranged marriage between Shen Mu and the Emperor's only daughter Princess Fu Xiao Lan, he had confidence that the emperor would agree because his son was considered a prodigy and according to him the only choice to be the future emperor the young master of the Min family is strong but cannot be compared to Shen Mu who even before becoming a cultivator could control some of your element.
Shen Hua went to the herb store, then went to a mining supply store, a liquor store 'Luck than don't ask for ID to buy alcohol here.' finally he passed the gun shop again to analyze its structure as he going to home.
Arriving at the Shen family complex he heard some talk about his grandfather's return the dinner with the imperial family and the marriage proposal 'Hmm, so my grandfather came back he shouldn't care much about me. If the proposal of Shen Mu is accepted and he really become king kill him will become more difficult I better hurry if I can do the robbery I can use it to tarnish the reputation of the Shen family and prevent this marriage.'
Arriving at the patio Shen Hua Went to the kitchen and removed the ervs he bought. After a few hours the whole kitchen had a strong smell of medicine with its mouth and nose covered Shen Hua was cooking a green substance in a pan 'Okay, it's ready but the smell is very strong I'll have to disguise it.' Then of throwing a few more herbs into the pan the smell has disappeared 'Now it is ready if it enters the body the target becomes extremely susceptible and can follow simple orders the best is that afterwards it will not remember anything.'
Shen Hua came out of the kitchen and went to the courtyard with a pan after mixing a few items he bought at the mining store with the drink he bought form a sticky substance was formed in the pan. 'The explosion power is very low, but it will serve to broke a lock.'
After the drug cooled Shen Hua left the liquid drying in the sun and went to study about the building. 'It's a simple two-story building the first one is the store and it has a small warehouse on the back it has a lock and the only entrance is behind the counter the second floor should be the office and that's where the seller should go examine the items the weather. The climate is cold so he should keep the windows closed this will help to poison him. I will use the key that I got after I have desoriented him I can use the explosive to open the deposit and finally for move the serve can I use the space ring.' when just I finish planning the sun was already setting, went to kitchen make dinner for me and Shen Xiao.
After eating Shen Hua took everything she had prepared and headed toward the armor shop 'It's a time for revenge.'
