6 Ruined

He lifts her chin up so she could face him and slowly inched his face closer to her's, he brushed a strand of her hair that fell from the fold and kissed her forehead. The next thing they know, the cherry tree blossomed with the flowers falling, it was a magnificent sight. It made the whole moment romantic and it matched her beauty all the more. Poor Si Chen could not resist been drawn to that charming beauty and oh those eyes of hers, whenever he stares into them, its like the want to drown him and lost in them he wants to be. He was losing it, his gaze trailed down from her eyes to her nose and then landed on her lips, perfect pink, she wore a light make up and he so wanted to taste those lips. He was lost, truly lost, he inched his face closer to her, gently closing his eyes and was about to kiss her...

The bush rustled... and there appeared before them three men, dressed in black, with a black cloth covering their faces from the nose down.

"What is... " before he could complete his sentence, Xiaoli got up from him and stood there looking at the intruders with no emotion in her eyes.

"Hand over all your money, jewelries and we would not harm you".

Si Chen got up and stood besides Xiaoli.

She snickered, "Harm you say? Such nerve. Simply leave and I'll forget this ever happened " the princess gave a light warning.

"Who do you think yo are acting all high and mighty because you are simply rich" one of the robbers said.

Si Chen looked at their clothes, yes it didn't portray their status, but it showed they were well to do, especially the silk cloth they spread on the green grass. The princess's outfit definitely didn't portray royalty, if not they wouldn't dare if they knew whom they were up against.

"You standing there, are you even a man, letting your lady protect you. Well if you do now want her getting hurt submit".

'The nerve from this impudent being' he thought to himself.

"Hand them over now mister and we would just be gentle with her as we make her beg us for some more pleasure, screaming for some more like a whore, better than what you could ever give her".

As soon as the last one spoke that nonsense, the temperature suddenly dropped, it was extremely dense and cold. You could say the atmosphere around them was heavy. Si Chen was about to step forward and attack, when a hand blocked him. It was so slim and looked fragile but if anyone doesn't know, he definitely did.

Those hands were deceptive, the looked fragile but holds the greatest power, no one could stand against her and these three mongrels just dared to and insulted her for that matter. There was flash if light in her eyes and a sinister smile you could see if you looked closer or have cultivated to a certain extent, but those three saw it not.

In the blink if an eye she disappeared and before they knew what was going on... Bam. With a loud thud those three were thrown somewhere far off in the field as they could barely stand, a few bones were broken.

Then before their line if sight was the person who had just disappeared before but now standing in front of them, with a murderous intent on her exquisite delicate beautiful face. Then the man with her earlier appeared in their line of sight.

"Beg for some more pleasure, scream like a whore... You dare insult me. I should have your heads for this with your tongues cut off first".

Fear and terror was clearly written on their faces, never would they have ever imagined that that frail beauty was this terrifying. If not they would have left just now as she advised, but now, death us knocking on their door.

The air in the surrounding changed again, so heavy it could choke one.

"What level of cultivation this girl has?" they thought to themselves.

Before they knew it, they were coughing out blood.

"Please don't kill us, spare us. We would do anything you ask of us" the first said.

"We are sorry for being rude earlier on. Spare our lives please" the last and who seemed to be the oldest spoke pleading for their lives.

"We give our lives to you if you spare us, please" the second robber spoke.

"Okay" instantly the air changed back to normal.

"What kind of a monster is she?" the third thought to himself.

And what everyone least expected happened... She smiled to them.

Si Chen was a little bit taken aback, but giving her personality, he wasn't surprised at all. Yes she was kind and powerful but just now they had insulted her, her personality, called her a whore, well not directly, linked her to one, that was an offense punishable by DEATH itself. It was the first time for someone to speak those words to her, he wasn't sure how she'd react. He wanted to beat them to a pulp for that but she stopped him. Good thing she didn't kill them.

"You ruined my cherry bloom. That i will not accept Your life belongs to me now, go to the Prime Minister Si's residence and tell them the young master sent you, they should offer you a job as a guard there. And wait for his arrival, if they don't agree, show them this" she threw her hairpin at them, "well they would agree after seeing this, leave this minute".

"But... " he was cut short by the cold gaze she gave.

"Yes master, we would do as you have asked" they chorused with a bow.

"What are your names?" She asked them now having a smile on her face.

"I am Shao Li"

"I am Cheng Mu"

"I am Mu Shao Li".

"You may go, oh and you better not escape, I'll find you".

"We promise, you can make a master and servant contract with us".

"Hmm ... ".
