Chapter 14 Yu Shen

...

20 minutes later...

"Brother Liekris, that's so unfair! How come you succeeded but not me?..." Kei looked at me and pouted.

Kei, you're so cute...

*chuckle*

" I'm sure you can do it too...Just try a little harder"

Hmmm...

After this, Should I meet up with that Yu Shen?

...

At a public market

"So you said, this is where you last saw him?"

"Yes, Brother Liekris"

Kei described Yu Shen to be big and mascular.

It's pretty noisy... But I gotta find him...

I explored and searched for him at the whole market and asked vendors if they saw a big man named Yu Shen.

Is he not here?...

*Sigh* Where could he be...?

He seems strong and talented...If we train him and use him properly in the future then he might be able to help us...

Okay... Let's try again...

...

10 minutes later

*Sigh* Where could that person be?

While still searching for any signs of Yu Shen, I heard one of the vendors I asked earlier talking to someone...

"Ahhh yes, thank you. Please take care of yourself, gramps."

"Thank you, Shen...You can go back now. Sorry for bothering you again today..."

" Ah no it's nothing, gramps! It's fine--"

"Ahh! A handsome young man was looking for you earlier...I think his name was ikelis?? Ikries? Aries?... "

Shen?...Is that man by any chance, Yu Shen?

I decided to go to them and introduced myself.

" It's Liekris..." I looked at the grandpa and smiled.

Yu Shen looked at me and waited before speaking...

" My name is Yu Shen. Uhh You we're looking for me? Do you need anything?"

Oh...Should I be more straight forward?...

But... this isn't the place to talk...

" I have something to ask of you. Is it okay if we head to a restaurant nearby? This isn't really the perfect place to talk... Don't worry, it's my treat."

He looked at me for a few minutes and looked at the vendor, it's probably his grandpa and bid him goodbye.

...

Gale's Restaurant

We both ordered what we both wanted and just stared at each other.

It was quiet until he decided to talk...

"So what do you need from me?"

Oh...

Then...

"I want you to join me...Eherm...Will you join me, Mr. Yu Shen..?"

Once again, the place was filled with silence.

This time, I was the one who decided to break the silence by saying...

"You don't have to answer immediately... I'll give you time to think, come to this address when you're ready." I said and gave him the address of my apartment.

I miss my apartment...And since I live alone, it's best to talk there.

And...

It's not good talk at the Mansion since there're maids everywhere...Also Dad still isn't on his right mind after losing mom but he still took care of me when I was in a coma anyways...

*Sigh* Dad...Mom...

"Okay..."

"Great... I'll meet you there when you're ready, then?"

We then talked about random things and got along pretty well.

After we've come to an agreement and a few minutes of talking, our foods arrived.

...

After Eating

"Thank you, Sir Liekris..."

"Yeah no worries...I look forward for our next meeting, Mr. Yu Shen..."

" Yes..."

After we bid our goodbyes, we then went to our separate ways.

...

Mansion

" Kei, Riah... I'm going to go back to my apartment. If you want, you both can come with me. Yu Shen will also come to my apartment once he's ready to give me his answers."

Since they just looked at each other without saying anything, I left the room and went to mine. I dont have much stuff in this Mansion so I'll just rest here for tonight and leave tomorrow morning.

Now then...Yu Shen... I'm looking forward for your response...

Don't disappoint me..
