Under Wei Mingting's management, Gu Yanyan's restaurant soon filled with customers.
Since Wei Mingting was a local himself, he knew the taste of locals and with Gu Yanyan's homemade five spices and thirteen spices and her secret soy sauce and oyster sauce and homemade vineger, the chefs Wei Mingting had found to prepare dishes were simply over the moon.
They felt that they had some magic in their hands.
The chefs themselves were best in the Hangzhou city and with the unique recipes provided by Gu Yanyan they themselves couldn't believe, they could prepare such heavenly dishes which tasted so delicious.
In just a month's time, far and wide the whole Hangzhou city knew the name of 'Longfeng restaurant'.
Since there was still a month before the distilled wine would be ready to drink, Gu Yanyan took Yang Xumei and thought to take a look around the city.
Without delaying Fan Dongjin immediately prepared a low key carriage with a skilled coachman and four bodyguards for his little miss.
Gu Yanyan along with her favorite Yang Xumei boarded the carriage and left for their city tour.
From the window of the carriage they see the bustling streets with people, street vendors shouting the names of their items to attract customers, children walking beside their parents holding their hands and some even pointing towards some certain items for them to by them.
Gu Yanyan and Yang Xumei also bought a few street foods and their favorite sweet and sour hawthorn candies.
At some point they would step down the carriage and walk on the streets to enjoy the feeling of carefree life.
Since the moment they came in this world they were first confined in the Gu Residence and then for safety reasons, butlers at the manor didn't let them out on their own.
But this time was different.
They were away from the capital and for the first time that stinky older butler let them out on their own even though he arranged for a whole group of bodyguards to tag behind them.
"Xumei, see that demon mask." Gu Yanyan shouted excitedly at Yang Xumei and pointed towards a certain direction.
"You wanna wear them? I want to buy one let's go." Without giving any chance to Yang Xumei to express her opinion, Gu Yanyan dragged her towards the mask shop.
"Ah! misss." Yang Xumei found herself getting dragged away by Gu Yanyan suddenly and couldn't help but let out a scream but her voice was eventually drown in the sea of voice in a certain bustling street.
"Woah. So many masks. Xumei, see, if you like something for yourself." At the mask shop Gu Yanyan took her favorite demon mask and started to appreciate it while vaguely offering Yang Xumei to buy one for herself too.
Looking at the way Gu Yanyan was engrossed with her demon mask forgetting her at the side Yang Xumei was speechless.
But nonetheless she also found herself choosing a mask for herself too.
While they were still looking and choosing their masks, Gu Yanyan didn't felt when a dark shadow loomed over her.
"This little friend, isn't it a little too scary for a little guy like you?" A nonchalant voice sounded over Gu Yanyan's head and the demon mask in her hand was snatched away.
Little guy Gu Yanyan was stunned and her eyes widened in a shape of two large sizes of tennis balls.
She couldn't believe someone could still her favorite demon mask from her hands so blatantly.
Gu Yanyan blinked her eyes twice and only after a moment she came into her senses as without turning around she lifted her head towards the sky wanting to see who was that audacious person.
It was a boy eight or nine years old.
That boy also looked down at met the gaze of little guy who seemed to have some strange way of greeting people and smiled at him, his fox like eyes shining under the afternoon sun.
Looking at his fox like eyes, Gu Yanyan could only think of one name: Little Fox
From where Gu Yanyan was looking at him, she could see his thick and long eyelashes flattering like a cicada's wings.
Astonished by his dazzling smile, Gu Yanyan even forgot to stand up straight and face him properly. It was not until Yang Xumei nudged her that Gu Yanyan came into her senses and immediately stood up straight and faced the boy properly.
Wearing a black robe usually worn by martial artist in some organization, the boy had his hair tied by red ribbon. In one hand her demon mask while the carrying his long sword.
If not for his handsome and dashing face even at the age of eight, Gu Yanyan surely would have opted for a run leaving Yang Xumei behind.
Yang Xumei:"...."
But looking at his thick brows, white chiseled face like a jade sculpture carved by a skilled heavenly master, his lips were thin but naturally pink. Gu Yanyan was sure once this boy grew up in a man, he would be disaster for the whole city's women even without lifting his sword.
Dang.
While appreciating Gu Yanyan's sleeping phonix shaped eyes met his fox like ones filled with amusement as if asking: like what you see?
"Ahem. This mister, no matter how scary it is. Since I'd taken it, it means I don't feel scared from it. Then... shouldn't you.... return it back to me?" As Gu Yanyan said this she stretched out her hand tyring to snatch her demon mask back but taking advantage of his hight, the boy effortlessly dodged her outstretched hand and took a step back.
"You" Gu Yanyan narrowed her eyes at the boy and pointed her finger at him in rage "Give me back my demon mask."
"Calm down, little friend." The boy smiled with his fox like eyes filled with amusement as he stretched out his hand and lifted a white fox mask from the pile of mask at the mask shop.
"This demon mask is really too scary for a little kid like you. Why don't you let this big brother have this scary mask while you play with this cute fox mask?" The handsome boy tried to coax 'little guy' out of 'his' favorite demon mask.
