"Yes, young master, we will handle the case as soon as possible. We're very sorry for the unsatisfactory service you've experienced today. The restaurant will be held accountable and compensate you handsomely" Manager Mo spoke carefully and let the older staff assist the ancestors.
"Big sister-- let's go!" Avelino ushered as he took hold of his sister's pale hand. It was no longer evident that she had just come from an accident months ago.
Her body has adapted well with her recuperation period, and the damaged tissues were healing fast. Before, the doctors announced that she might stay in a coma for a year or wake up with paralysis. But their expectations were not met when she woke up.
Cresencia's expression remained the same under the mask, and no one could guess what she was thinking at the moment. With calmness, she followed her brothers' lead without looking back. The older staff accompanied them and ensured that there would be no mistakes with the servings, or they would no longer need to work for her brother.
"Stop all of you! We came here. First, I am also a VIP cardholder-- it should be our room and not yours! This place is biased, and the service is bad enough. How can you let them get a room before us?"
The woman angrily stomped her foot and moved forward, only to be stopped by the guards. Their expression felt wrong, and silence enveloped the lounge as the siblings disappeared from everyone's sight. The woman became angrier and slapped one of the guards. Jealousy is a hideous snake that can put people unconscious and drive them to create unforgivable mistakes.
The woman wanted to get ahead of everyone and prove her nonexistent superiority, only to be slapped by someone who holds absolute power in society. Qin's family in the imperial capital has ancient roots since Qin Dynasty. And they are the only family who still has one ancient bloodline dominantly belonging to the royal's successors.
The public estimated that the hidden family never experienced a decline over the years and flourished instead. They have branched to all provinces and cities in the country. And the family is also trying their best to expand their market abroad.
"This lady put her on the blocklist along with the names of her friends, make sure you get their real identities and send the information to the president without delay, we are civilized people living in modern society, and you know what should be done" manager Mo ordered
The security system cleared the scandalous scene and proceeded cautiously, fearful of being asked to leave. Employees who worked outside the previous batch moved to a new station. The company also sent them out of the country to participate in a harsher level of elite training. No one knows that firing an employee was impossible in her brother's company.
A faulty person moves back to the headquarters office. The person will carry a punishment for a year. During this lengthy training period, one could only choose between submitting himself entirely to survive or preparing to die without a corpse.
Cresencia took off her veil when the meal arrived. There were no outsiders within the fourth floor's parameters, and it's even impossible for ordinary VIP cardholders to roam within this restricted area. Outside, many guards were assigned to guard and roam around the site hourly.
"Wow-- manager Mo is kind. He gave us so much food, and all of them were new to me," Emilio praised deliberately, but the venom in his words was still noticeable.
"The treatment was not so comforting, and the old man must be planning to gain favor from our sister-- if not, he wouldn't be so willing to let us eat free today with lots of new delicacies!" Avelino acknowledged the manager's effort in pleasing the elders of their family, but he was annoyed that they were only treated based on their young age
"Big sister, you should bring us often here!" he proposed
"Pretty please!" both of them acted like a cute puppy in front of her, and so Cresencia nodded
"Yes, but to support our brother, we must pay for the food they serve-- don't take things for granted, lest luck would be sad and you'd suffer from the lack of it," Cresencia lectured
An immortal cultivator like her has lived most of her life writing ethical lessons based on someone else's memories. What she collects to feed her power were also things that contain not just spiritual essences but also rich with experiences. Anyone can count how much their experiences taught them, but to be able to wear someone else's shoes and assimilate knowledge is different.
That alone is a particular skill that Cresencia hides.
She admits that she still has the knowledge of immortality, but her body is only a human version. It's been days since she kept thinking about practicing this body to become stronger. But her time and place do not readily permit her intentions.
Her parents strictly monitored her, and her brothers often hung out with her. Classes were ongoing from the afternoon till early in the evening. There were also gifts on their doorstep, but she hadn't had the time to open them. Yet, she can see a person's aura and the ambiance of things touched by an individual.
The colors she sees represent the emotion and the aura of a person.
Emotion ranges; designed like a DNA structure of light, comparable to the lengthiness of a cross-stitch thread that envelops a person like an illuminating outline
Black - sadness
Violet - mournful
Yellow - happiness
Red - anger
White - depressed
Green - confident
Orange - nervous
Blue - anxious
Indigo - painful
Gray - numbness
Aura ranges; designed like a cloud of smoke that envelops a person in rays, lighter compared to the thread of emotion
Red Ross - evil
Orange Arcturus - malicious
Yellow Polaris - good
White Sirius - kind
Blue Spica - pure
The boys in front of her were emitting a yellow light. That means they were both happy with goodness at heart. Cresencia smiled and touched their heads.
