Going to the Situ mansion.

" All right if you want to come with me then I will not stop you but you need to take some deep breathes and calm yourself down, you are trembling so much," seeing that Yin Zhu did not want to take a day off Yin Xia didn't say anything more to convince her but she still asked Yin Zhu to breathe in deeply and calm down. She couldn't watch her sister shivering like a terrified little child, Yin Zhu has gotten so old yet she was still scared of something so small as a spider, many times Yin Xia wanted to ask about the reason but her father stopped her every time.

Yin Zhu nodded as she sucked in a breath and then breathed out through her mouth, she too did not know why something simple as a spider scared her but ever since she was abandoned by her mother in the town, Yin Zhu has been scared of spiders, no matter how big or small.

Father Yin too patted Yin Zhu on the back while he stroked her head with his hand, his fingers brushing through the silvery locks of his daughter. "It's okay father is here, as long as I am with you nothing will happen all right?" When he saw Yin Zhu so scared and stiff, he could no longer think of scolding her. Instead, he tried his best to calm his daughter down.

It took some time for Yin Zhu to calm down before she was ready to leave the house. The three members of the Yin family packed their things one by one but father Yin needed to collect some documents from the head of the Ji family which was why he was first to pick up his suitcase as he headed towards the threshold of the house while his daughters were still eating breakfast, his, on the other hand, was packed along with his lunch.

He would eat it in the carriage.

" Now, Xia Xia takes good care of your sister and Zhu'er, try your best not to trip on anyone, don't drop anything on anyone's foot and please be careful when you are carrying something like hot water in your hands, we don't want the same thing as the restaurant happening again, father doesn't have enough savings to pay for another healer's session." Father Yin sternly reminded his daughter, he still had nightmares about the incident when his daughter poured hot water on the head of a beta server.

" It was his fault," Yin Zhu did not want to admit that she was in the wrong. " He was the one who startled me by coming behind me suddenly causing me to jump in the air and drop the water on his head."

" I don't need to hear this over and over again, I know for a fact that what you did wasn't unintentional…I know that you were having trouble with the boy but that does not mean that you can retaliate against him with your hands, if he bullies you with his mouth then you bully him with words as well, you don't use your hands, Zhu'er!!" father Yin wasn't fooled, he reminded his daughter that he still hasn't forgotten the crux of the matter. " If you hit someone this time, it won't be as simple as you paying for their healer sessions, all right?"

" Fine, Fine…I will keep my temper in check and I won't do anything like hitting or accidentally——"

" Deliberately," corrected her father.

" Fine!" Yin Zhu exclaimed as she rolled her eyes. " I will not pour hot water on anyone bullying me just because I look small and cute…unlike the strong betas."

Yin Xia shook her head, it was as if she was already having a hard time believing what Yin Zhu was saying.

" Don't worry about her father, I will keep an eye on her," Yin Xia leaned down and pressed a kiss on her father's cheek. " You take care at work and don't let master Ji make you run errands for him."

" I wish I could do that," said Father Yin as he sighed heavily and then placed his hand on the knob of the door. " I am leaving now, Xia Xia take care …Zhu'er stay safe." After that, he opened the door and then walked out.

" Father worry too much sometimes, I mean I might be a bit troublesome but I am not stupid enough to get on the wrong side of alphas." Yin Zhu went back to the dining table and then took a bite of her toast.

" That's because you don't know what kind of people live in that mansion," replied Yin Xia as she went to the cloth rack and then picked up two cloaks. " The Situ family has a knack to drive their servants crazy."

" They can't be that bad, right?" said Yin Zhu as she wiped her lips with a cloth napkin. " I heard from Mingzhi that the young masters of the Situ family are really handsome and gentlemanly."

" Don't be fooled by what you see Zhu'er," warned Yin Xia. " Even a poisonous fly trap is beautiful from the outside but we all know what is inside it, now get ready we need to leave."

Once the two sisters tied their cloaks around their necks, they left the lodge after locking the front door. The two of them walked in the direction of the stop where they could hire a carriage to bring them to the town, the alphas never lived in the slums of the town, they lived in the very heart of the city. A journey that would take them almost forty minutes by carriage and on foot, it would be simply impossible.

The weather was as gloomy as always, dark grey clouds covered the sky as lightning crackled across them every once and now. Yin Xia asked Yin Zhu to carry an umbrella with her lest it started raining after all the mood of alphas and the weather in the first cycle was always unpredictable.

Yin Zhu's head unlike her sister wasn't tied up in a long ponytail because she needed to hide her glands she had her hair down that was fluttering in the wind behind her. The two of them were just a few more metres away from the carriage stop when they heard were suddenly stopped by a man.
