9 A rich man acting like a poor man!

Xia Ling was about to reveal her identity as a maid in the imperial palace to escape from the situation, she is flabbergasted that someone actually took the initiative to help her. To avoid any more complications and to never implicate this young man, she thought to continue the play and leave the place as early as possible.

"Sister, why are you looking at me like that? Let's go home." Di Cheng said smiling brilliantly. Xia Ling made a wry smile and said, "Little brother, I am about to come home but the flower vase mom told me to buy has been broken, so you first return and tell mom about it." She doesn't want to drag an innocent into this mess, so she was hinting him to leave the place.

While Di Cheng and Xia Ling were talking Tu She became angry and coldly said, " Kid, if you want to take her home you have to compensate for ruining my dress and accept punishment for disrespecting the young master of the noble family." Chu Yan impatiently said, "We already told you if you want to leave then compensate us with 100 gold or you have to serve us for the next three days." Di Cheng never would have thought that these fellows from noble families are this arrogant, even though he is a young master of Di family he never would have done such a thing.

'Arrogance comes with power' he thought.

Di Cheng gently walked closer to three of them and cupped his fist and said, " If we compensate you will you leave us?" Xia Ling was startled by what Di Cheng said. She cannot bear it anymore and said, " Little brother leave here I will take care of myself, you don't have..." she didn't even finish her sentence Di Cheng took 100 gold coins from his storage device and gave it to Tu She and said, "Sorry for the trouble." Without even thinking he took 100 gold coins, and he even has a storage device. Xia Ling was dumbfounded by seeing what's happening in front of her, a stranger took 100 gold coins to help her. It is a very large sum for her, if she works for an entire year as a maid she will only get about 45-50 gold, and he gave it just like that. 'Who is this guy? I don't even know him. Does he expect something from me?' these are the questions running in her mind. As for Di Cheng, it is nothing for him, while leaving Di family his mother gave him 500 gold coins and when he left his courtyard to stroll in the city his father gave him 500 gold. He already spent most of the money on expenses, and he was left only with 150 gold.

Tu She is bewildered and looked at gold coins in his hand and at the storage bracelet on the wrist of Di Cheng. "Who are you? Why are you interfering in our matter? Do you know who we are?" Tu She slowly said. He knew someone wearing a storage device doesn't have a simple background. 'Even though that fellow has shallow cultivation I have to be cautious,' Tu She calculated.

"Who am I is not important. You got your compensation so we bid goodbye!" Di Cheng smiled and said. He never took single glance at them and helped Xia Ling in picking the broken flower vase.

"You..." When Su Song was about to take action he was stopped by both Tu She and Chu Yan.

Xia Ling picked the flowers and broken vase and left the scene immediately with Di Cheng.

Di Chen, who is watching everything standing in the crowd smiled and quietly left the place.

Chu Yan and Su Song left together with Tu She. While walking Chu Yan couldn't help but said, "Tu She were you leaving them just like that? We just lost face because of those two people. We have to do something."

Tu She grinds his teeth in anger said slowly,

"I am not going to let them off. We will get our revenge. That boy's background is not simple, so without information, we shouldn't make rash moves. Let's go we will meet with brother Bu Shen."
