"Bouncers?" Fan Dongjin asked.
"Yes. Bouncers. They will be like guards who would protect the girls and maintain the order inside the entertainment house." Yang Xumei said.
"Oh. So that's how it is." Fan Dongjin said in a tone which suggested that he understood everything.
"But how you know about these things? As long as I know, no one around us have ever talked about a flower house or any entertainment house? And I'm pretty sure that these things wouldn't be written down in the books you both girl's usually read too." Fan Dongjin asked looking between Gu Yanyan and Yang Xumei. His eyes narrowed as he scrutinized the two girls.
"Ah!" Startled by the sudden question from Fan Dongjin, Yang Xumei froze in her place. From the corner of her eyes she tried to look for Gu Yanyan. But Gu Yanyan was chill, sipping on her tea as the elegant young lady from a noble family. Which she was.
Fan Dongjin too focused his gaze on Gu Yanyan when he saw Yang Xumei to look for Gu Yanyan for help.
After finishing her tea Gu Yanyan put the cup down and lifted her little head and looked at Fan Dongjin with her small eyes but firm gaze.
After staring in his eyes for a while, her small phoenix-shaped eyes crinkled in smile and she said; "Of course, because we are sent by heaven to avenge your young miss.(Madam Lin)"
Gu Yanyan didn't say anything more and stood up from her chair. Yang Xumei also followed the suit and both girls left the hall. The footsteps which were climbing the wooden stairs indicated, they retired for the night.
Left alone in the dining hall, Fan Dongjin didn't look up for a long time instead his gaze was still settled on the place where the little girl was sitting before, her reply still ringing in his ears. He believed that what the little girl Saud was not only joke or sarcasm but was that really true?
After a long time he shook his head to get his senses back and ordered his trusted men to start preparation for the opening of a Flower house in the busiest city of Hangzhou.
While upstairs....
After living the dining hall, Yang Xumei didn't went into her room to as usual but instead followed Gu Yanyan to her room.
"Was it really fine to reveal so much in front of butler Fan?" Yang Xumei asked, concern filled in her voice. "I mean he already has his suspicion towards us and you also told them, we are sent from heaven. What if he believes your nonsense and really think, we are from thus world but came from another time and space?"
"Isn't it true? Didn't we come from another time and space?" Gu Yanyan plopped on her soft and comfy princess bed and looked at Yang Xumei as she questioned.
"But-"
"And do you really think, those people around us hadn't noticed something extraordinary about us in these last three years? Where we got all those recipes of unique dishes? Secret recipes of White Vineger and Soy Souce was still ok but oyster sauce? No one in this era had found this recipe but we had made it possible. And when I take out spicy chilli and red tomatoes which are foreign to this land, no one asked or questioned us. Heck, even when we bought thousands of acres of land and mountains, opened big snacks shops and restaurants and winery, no one asked us about the silvers we took out from my private space." Gu Yanyan didn't said more and just rolled over to the inner side of the bed so that Yang Xumei could sit down at the outer side of the bed and take her time to digest the fact that they had been exposed for so long.
Yang Xumei didn't showed any politeness and without any hesitation she took her seat at the bed.
Sitting over there she thought back as how they really hadn't concealed their extraordinary knowledge and skills while their stay at the Xiaolin Manor and after coming to Hangzhou city, if was as if they had let their wings fly. The way they spent silvers and bought dozens of acres of lands, mountains, tea manor, winery and shops and restaurants, they were really careless all this while but those butlers and servants and even those guards didn't show as if they were surprised it was as if, this was how it should be.
"So, all this while when I thought, no one knows about our secrets, I was wrong and so many people already know that we came from modern world?" Yang Xumei gasped loudly as realization hit her and her hand flew to her mouth, her eyes widened and filled with fear.
"Yes. But don't worry." Gu Yanyan affirmed Yang Xumei's guesses and gently comforted her. "Since they hadn't asked all this time while helping us in every way they could. It only means that, they believe us and love us. They don't mean any harm to us. Grandpa Fan and others are only loyal to Mother and now me, us." Gu Yanyan said holding Yang Xumei's hand in her small ones.
"Xumei, we got this. We got so many loyal people who will do anything to make sure that we are fine, in return we just have to avenge mother and help cousin in any way we can. We can do this, right, Xumei?" Gu Yanyan asked while her grip on Yang Xumei's hands got tighter.
With Gu Yanyan's gentle coaxing and her firm grip on her own hand, Yang Xumei could finally calm down. Taking long and deep breath she nodded her head vigorously. "Yes, miss. We can do this."
Next Morning.....
After washing up Gu Yanyan and Yang Xumei both descended the stairs and came downstairs.
Fan Dongjin had already woken up since the dawn and was instructing others with their tasks.
"Yes, put this box here. What are you doing? Oh no. It's shouldn't be done like this. Ah Jiu, you should go to the storehouse and bring that big pot with big handles, this pot is difficult to move around. Yes and you should also-" While shouting orders at the servants, his eyes met to little Gu Yanyan.
"Ah little miss is already here-"
