Really unfortunate!

Better to light a candle, than to curse the darkness...

Xiao yuer felt hungry. He grabbed his aching stomach, the pouch of money, and got up, before hiding it inside the white cloth he realized he wore, but didn't care much.

"These heartless people, beating someone who hasn't eaten. Humph! No matter what crime he committed, couldn't they have at least fed him before dealing with him?" Xiao Yuer muttered, clicking his tongue in disapproval.

No wonder the previous owner died and he took over... Really unfortunate..

As he stood there, he absentmindedly touched his teeth with his tongue, only for one of them to fall out. Annoyed, he spat it out with a grimace. "They even had to remove his teeth! Only Buddha knows how painful it must have been for him..."

The environment was calm and cool, with puddles of water in patches, on the floor, as Xiao yuer glanced around outside. The sky was beautiful and clear but it was noticeable that a rainfall had occurred before the clear beautiful sunny sky. Xiao Yuer marched along on the cobbled floor path. Kicking a few nearby stones, when a reflection flashed his sight from a nearby puddle.

The reflection was breathtakingly beautiful that Xiao Yuer had to stop. Intruiged. To know who it was.

"...?"

He bent down and began to scrutinize the visage. It had a beautiful, delicate face with lush pink lips. A red mascara around it's eyes, followed by blushes on his cheeks. There was a dried scar on its head, while it's silver eyes were as sharp as a chrystallized blade, able to hook off ones soul. Not only that. Long cascading flows of silver fell on both side of its face, while a silver Chai adorned the back falling ponytail the visage had.

"Huh? Who's this?" Xiao Yuer was dazed at the beauty of this visage, but had a nagging doubt in mind. Was this the Lin cai'er he transmigrated into? With doubts in his mind, Xiao Yuer decided to clear his doubt by frowning, and to his surprise. The reflection mirrored his expression!

"...?" Eyes widened and so did the visage copy his movement.

Still Intruiged but confused, Xia Yuer raised his palm to his face, and once again, the reflection mimicked his actions. But, as Xiao yuer retreated his palm, his palms were decorated with white powders. It became clear that this body was indeed his own, and it applied makeup. Just like his mother!

Not caring a single bit, Xiao Yuer made use of the puddle water to wipe of the makeup the original body had applied on his face. And even after that, the face that was revealed was indeed still a Jade beauty.

Even more beautiful than the makeup version!

Xiao Yuer, "if I was a girl, I would really be jealous of a male with this face. He's to beautiful! Hehehe, with this face I can seduce a lot of men and fulfill all the sexual desires I never had the chance to explore."

Almost immediately, Xiao yuer's words were drowned by lots of footsteps sound, likewise the raised voice of unknown individuals who approached where he was.

" Scatter around and find that Lin cai'er thief!"

" Make sure he doesn't escape, and if he dares try to run, throw your shuriken at his knee!"

" And don't forget to bring him alive! "

Panicking, Xiao Yuer cursed and got up, attempting to run away but came to a quick halt when he heard a commanding voice behind him.

"Stop there mister and turnaround!"

Xiao Yuer couldn't think straight as his body twitched lightly. This body he transmigrated into was really the worst thing that he could ever think of. A cut sleeve, an abomination, the son of a prostitute, a cunny tryant, and most of all... A thief!

All this made Xiao Yuer bitter for ever performing the Alchemy of soul technique. Well, except the beautiful features this body had.

Who knew more atrocities this body had committed...

Reluctantly, Xiao Yuer raised both of his arms into the air. Hesitant to turnaround. However, when the voice thundered again, he was left with no other choice than to comply. With a heavily thumping heart.

Xiao Yuer wore a faint smile as he turned around and faced them, but his heart was etched with uneasiness. Xiao Yuer scanned those men before him as he came to a realization. 'Probably, this pouch of coins I'm with, was stolen from the Lin household by Lin cai'er and someone found out' He deduced.

Why would he do such a thing? Now he was the one going to bear the consequences... Really unfortunate!

Wait, haven't I used this "unfortunate" word too much?... Guess I'm sorely unfortunate... Oh how unfortunate!

"Bring the picture!" A hunky man dressed up in a purple and black cladded outfit ordered, catching Xiao yuer's attention, and with a "yes sir!" A white sheet of paper with a facial drawing in it was brought towards him, by his subordinate.

The man received the paper then began to approach Xiao Yuer.

With trembling fear, Xiao Yuer quavered lightly until the man with bulky and dominant aura was right in front of him.

"Hmmm?" The man hummed as he was right in front of Xiao Yuer. Scrutinizing both the image on the paper then Xiao yuer's facial features. But from what he could find, this individual before him was clearly not in recognition to the image on the paper. Although they both wore the same type of outfit.

Strange!

Xiao Yuer, however, threw glances around while he felt this man's scorching inspection. But in the next moment, he felt relief and surprised as the man retreated after muttering an apology. Wait! Was it that they couldn't recognize him??

The original Lin cai'er was quite smart if Xiao yuer's assumption was deemed to be true. Probably, the original Lin cai'er must've been applying makeup to conceal his real appearance while he did everything he does. Hence, most individuals within this town must have only recognized him with that white faced beauty, decorated with mascara on both eyes, and blushes on both cheeks. Not only that, it was also possible that he had never revealed his true face to any of them so that escaping during a dire situation like this would be easy. Xiao Yuer indeed felt very impressed!

'such a smart lad. You have my respect! '

'And lucky me for washing your makeups off'

Xiao Yuer brought down his hands and took confident steps forward. "Your apologies aren't accepted commander. Did you know that I have a seven year old junior sister at home who is severely sick and I came here to ask for help, Only to end up being assaulted? Presumptuous and unacceptable! " Xiao Yuer folded his arms afterwards, with his face directed to the side. Seemingly bothered and angry.

The table had been turned around and the cladded man who could be also seen as the commander, frowned then apologized again. "I'm sorry mister, we didn't intend to humiliate you... It's just that we're searching for someone and you seem to have a close stature resemblance with our target. Not only that, you're in his environment and... ", The man wore a confused expression before he continued, " You're wearing his kind of cloth. "

Xiao Yuer, "And so? How would I know? I came from a very distant village to cure my little sick sister. Poor A-ling would be waiting for her brother to return but here he is, being assaulted by some purple and black cladded individuals who's outfit doesn't fit them. "

"...? "

" Huh? "

" Really? "

Eyes shifted to each other as they all scrutinized themselves, feeling as if this beautiful man just spoke the truth. It was amusing towards Xiao Yuer as he watched them survey themselves with fazed expressions. Nevertheless, when their mumbles was over, their commander spoke up,

"You're quite funny mister. Hahahaha." His feets strutted forward with heavy steps until they came to a halt. Precisely ten steps. "But mister, who did you come here to meet? and did you by chance see another man with__"

Xiao Yuer interrupted," With red mascaras around both of his eyes, a white face like that of a ghost, and blushes on both side of his face isn't it? Tat, tat. I saw him and I know where he ran into. But I'll only inform you about his whereabout on two promises. "

Xiao yuer's definition of their target sparked interest on their findings that they needn't even waste a wee bit time to accept such offer. Opportunity came but once, and this might be a very resourceful blink of hope as their Lord, Lin Zhihao had given them a specific time to return with the runaway thief of a son. Lin cai'er. Or else they would face a severe punishment.

"Yes mister he's the one we're looking for, any information about him and whatever promise it is that you want? "A desperate tone from the commander of those men, made Xiao Yuer curl his lips in satisfaction. With all other questions being thrown at him... Forgotten.
