Three days later.

Lin Xiaofei was walking in the central road and on her way to Hong Pei Lou.

When she arrived at the restaurant, she could see that there were a lot of people who came to eat and walked inside.

She was wearing a lighter dress than her usual dark ones and had her veil on. The lower half of her face was covered with a thin veil and only her eyes and forehead could be seen. However, even with just that, everyone who looked in her way could see that she was not an ordinary beauty as they could get a feeling of being charmed by just looking at her.

As soon as Lin Xiaofei walked to the middle of the restaurant, the waiter who has been serving her for the past two days rushed to her side.

"Young miss, you\'re here again." The waiter politely smiled at her and lowered his head slightly.

Lin Xiaofei glanced at him and inquired, "Is your master still not around?"

Two days ago, as soon as Lin Xiaomeng left, Lin Xiaofei tried to meet Qu Xing Xu but who knew that when she looked for him, the man was nowhere to be found and the waiter in the Hong Pei Lou could only tell her that he was away at the moment.

She tried to come the next day but still, Qu Xing Xu didn\'t show his face and she had to go back to the Lin residence to wait once again

The waiter responded to her question with a shake of his head before saying: "Unfortunately, master hadn\'t come around Hong Pei Lou today. It seems that he has some other matters to do." Raising his head to look at her, he continued, "Don\'t worry, young miss. I will surely let him know that young miss personally came to look for him."

Lin Xiaofei scanned the area with her eyes and frowned. She didn\'t like waiting and her patience was thinning with the urgency of her matters.

If not for the empress who was trying to act like a match-maker to secure her marriage, Lin Xiaofei wouldn\'t come so soon to look for Qu Xing Xu after their conversation in her room.

It was just that she had to hurry and choose an eligible man for her to marry as soon as possible and before the empress could pass a royal decree to seal her fate.

However, that bastard just happened to be gone and busy when she suddenly wanted to see him.

Sighing, Lin Xiaofei decided to wait for him for another day. If she didn\'t meet Qu Xing Xu tomorrow and see the lists of bachelor\'s that he listed down for her to pick, she would have to settle for someone that Lin Xiaomeng hand-picked for her to marry.

Noticing that Lin Xiaofei was willing to retreat back to her residence and didn\'t ask for more questions, the waiter wanted to pat his chest and release a sigh of relief.

He didn\'t know what was the reason why his master was avoiding the young lady whom he took fancy of and made her wait for three consecutive days.

But he knew that once the lady in front of him finds out that his master was inside his room upstairs and only wanted to watch her wait and look for him, she would probably castrate him and kill him.

Just by a glance, he could see that the young lady came to meet his master to discuss an important matter and was desperate to see him.

Unfortunately, even though the waiter asked her a few times what matters does she have to speak about with his master, Lin Xiaofei didn\'t disclose it to him and stayed quiet.

Trying his luck, the waiter decided to ask her once again, "Miss, may I be so rude as to ask you why were you in a hurry to meet my master? I wanted to help you and personally go to where my master is, to tell him what matters you wanted to talk about."

Unlike the last time when he was only asking her out of curiosity, the waiter\'s tone sounded desperate as he wanted to end this matter as soon as possible so he could go back to his work and not let his master continue making this pretty young lady wait.

Lin Xiaofei glanced at the waiter and finally opened her mouth to tell him after some thoughts. It seems that she can\'t wait any longer to say this to him personally.

"Tell him, I need the list tomorrow. The empress wanted to bestow a marriage for me."

…

Upstairs of Hong Pei Lou, Qu Xing Xu leisurely held a hairpin between his fingers. One could see that the hairpin was made out of high-quality materials.

There was no need to guess how much it was as just by looking at the large pale blue diamond that sparkled whenever the light hits it was exquisitely beautiful and expensive.

He heard a knock and the waiter who was entertaining Lin Xiaofei walked in.

"Master…" the waiter bowed his head and his face was devoid of emotions as he stared at his master.

"Did she leave?" Qu Xing Xu asked him as he continued to play with the hairpin.

"Yes, she left already." The waiter answered and was hesitating to tell his master what the young lady said to him before she left.

Noticing his uneasiness, Qu Xing Xu glanced at his direction, "Speak."

"The young lady said something before she left." He answered without disclosing everything to his master and waited for Qu Xing Xu to let him continue.

Qu Xing Xu arched his brow, "Did she get angry and curse at me?" A playful smile was on his lips. The waiter shook his head and was startled that his master was thinking the same thing he was thinking.

With Lin Xiaofei\'s temperament, it wouldn\'t be impossible that she was cursing him in her heart for not appearing when she needed him.

Qu Xing Xu looked at the profile of the waiter as he waited for him to speak. He could see that the waiter was hesitating a lot and only after he heard what he has to say did he understood the hesitation of the waiter and the urgency of Lin Xiaofei.

"The empress bestowed a royal decree for the young miss to marry Prince Jing." The waiter said with a straight face but he didn\'t realize that his words were slightly twisted from what Lin Xiaofei said.

But after saying that, he almost fell on his knees, and with a ghastly face, the waiter shut his mouth in fear after seeing the smile on his master\'s lips gone and a dangerous glint was in his eyes.
