Trial Of Love Chapter 234 - Union

"Manager Quin, I'm sorry for resigning all of a sudden." Liu Yifie apologetic tone said.

"It's fine," she smiled happily for the girl who has found a good family to take care of her, "I'm happy for you."

"Manager Quin, thank you. It was thanks to you I'm able to stand where I am now. Despite you have to break the rules of the resort for me."

"I know, your someone with a good heart, I have explained everything to Lady Zhao."

"What?" It surprises her knowing that Manager Quin might be sacked from her job. "I'll go talk to them."

"Yifie calm down," she chuckled lightly as she grabbed hold of the girl's arms.

"But, but Manager Quin, you love your job." Liu Yifie's eyes turned red about to cry.

"And Lady Zhao knows that which is why she promoted me to be the Chief Operating Manager of the resort."

"She what?"

"Since Lady Zhao is busy with other matters, she trusts me to make the right decisions for the resort."

"Manager Quin, I mean Chief Quin congratulations."

"Thank Yifie," she said as she embraces the girl for the last time, "Yifie shouldn't you be going now."

"Ah- I didn't notice the time." She said as she ran out of the office whilst waving goodbye to her mentor.

In the resort main building and front lobby.

Everyone was getting ready to leave, they were all well dressed and wearing gla.s.ses to cover themselves. Some people gave distances to them and dare not approached. Except for Lady Zhao of course...

"Where is Lizzy?" Lady Zhao asked whilst signing some of the guest's and staff's autograph books.

"Sorry to keep everyone waiting."

They turned to where the voice came from and saw the girl carrying a lunch box. They sigh in disbelief in how she could eat none stop.

"Dear child, didn't you have breakfast?" Elder Lady Knightley inquired.

"I did, but I might get hungry later."

"Lili, let's go?" Zhao Xinyi sighs helplessly for his sister.

"Brother wait up," she said, as she came out of the lobby. In the corner of her eyes, from a distance, she notices Long Yiyi who face was all swollen and red. She felt bad for her but only for a moment...

"Lizzy, is something wrong?" Liu Yifie asked noticing the girl was in a daze.

Elizabeth shook her head and smiled as she answered her. "Nothing, I'll sit in the back."

"Xinyi, drive safely. Don't overdo it…" General Zhao firmly warned him.

"Yes, father."

He then looked at his daughter with a gentle expression and tone. "Yifie, tell me if he goes over the limit."

Elizabeth was surprised her Uncle did not ask her but Yifie instead, she curiously asked him. "Uncle how come you didn't ask me to watch brother."

"H I'm sure you'll overdo it more than your brother." He answered her whilst giving both of them a look that states; "I don't trust you, wild kids".

She forced a smile feeling guilty for what her uncle mentioned and hastily nagged her brother. "Brother, brother, let's go already."

Zhao Xinyi then started the car engine as the guard a.s.signed to watch them quickly got inside their car. As Xinyi drove off they too followed behind them.

"Sis Yifie, you should rest for now. It's quite a long drive."

"It's fine, I actually want to see the scenery."

"No worries Yifie, I'll take you to even more beautiful places in the future."

"Thank you," she replied as she held one of his hands.

Elizabeth saw how romantic his brother and sister were acting in front of her, her heart felt bitter for a moment. She cleared her head and suggested, "Ah- brother let go visit Master Jiang."

"But isn't it quite far?"

"It's along the way anyways, I want Master Jiang to bless your union."

"But we didn't prepare anything."

"No worries, we can bring something next time."

Elizabeth informed everyone that they'll be visiting Master Jiang and asked them to head home first. After a few hours' drive, they arrived at the temple entrance.

"Master Jiang?" Elizabeth yelled seeing he was on the temple ground and not up in the mountain.

"Baobao," Master Jiang gladly welcomed them as he approached the car that just arrived. "Xixi?"

"Master Jiang, how are you?" Zhao Xinyi respectfully greeted him.

"I didn't expect to see you two to be together." Master Jiang beamed in delight to see the two kids together for it's been a long time since he last saw them both together.

"Master thank you for your blessing last time," Zhao Xinyi gratefully thanked him.

Master Jiang recalled the bracelet Elizabeth asked him to bless, "Dear child it's my pleasure."

"Master I came for your blessing." Elizabeth's eyes sparkled as she asked for the Master's blessing.

"My child, what can I bless you more." Master Jiang giggled lightly curious to what an old man like him could do for someone so blessed like her.

"I want you to bless my brother and sister union." She said as she grabs Liu Yifie's hand.

"Xixi, your getting married?" Master Jiang's eyes surprisingly widen from hearing the good news

"Not yet Master but I wish to have her as my wife."

"I'm happy to hear that," he said as he then looked at Liu Yifie, "Dear child what is your name?"

"Master my name is Liu Yifie," Liu Yifie lowered her head as she greeted the master.

"Come," he said as he asked the three of them to follow them.

The three of them followed Master Jiang and ended up near a small pond with a huge tree next to it.

"Both of you shall be blessed under this tree, I shall be a witness to this union."

As the two stood in the middle of the tree next to the pond. Master Jiang started praying for them and blessing them.

"Xixi, I hope you two can leave a happy life."

"Master is brother and sister compatible?"

Master Jiang then grab both of their hands and check their palm, "Nothing to worry their stars both have good faith and a happy family in the future."

"Sis Yifie, I'm so happy to know your perfect for brother." Elizabeth was ecstatically cheered

"Lizzy, thank you."

Zhao Xinyi and Liu Yifie went ahead to explore the temple for a bit since Master Jiang requested to be alone with Elizabeth.

"Now dear child, tell me, why is your heart filled with darkness?"

Elizabeth smiled faded ashamed that the Great Master knew she was feeling depressed. She thought the trip would help her forget Yun Shen but in the end, she only missed him more. "Master, I thought I found the one for me."

Master Jiang patted the girl on the shoulder to comfort her. "Dear child, how do you know if he's not the one or if he's the one? Have you lived a life with him to know that he's the right one?"

"Well, I haven't but I just..." Elizabeth took a deep breath and realized what Master Jiang meant. She can't really say Yun Shen is the one if she hasn't even given him a chance. All she did was rejected him without him even explaining his feeling to her.

"Child, one day your love will be tested. Fate shall bring you both together but fate will also separate you both. But always remember; if you are meant to be, then destiny will bring you together. Then that person is the rightful one for you."

"Master, you mean?"

"Child, you are the most blessed phoenix I've ever met. It only means a dragon will be your mate. But only the best of those dragons in your life will truly be worthy of you."

When Master Jiang mentioned dragon, the first person that pop out in to her mind was Jayden Stanford. She recalled when they visit London Chinatown, they meet an old monk and the monk mentioned he was a dragon.

"Master, thank you... I shall visit you again and bring you some gift."

Master Jiang bid the girl farewell, he pitied the child when he saw the pain in her eyes. He just wishes she could find her happiness, but her journey ahead is far from smooth sailing.

After getting their blessing from Master Jiang. It was already late when they arrived at the Imperial Garden Place.

"Yifie, Lili wake up," Zhao Xinyi spoke in a low tone as he wakes the two girls sleeping at the back of the car.

"Are we home?"

"Yes, so get up already."

When Liu Yifie opened his eyes, she was surprised to see the grand estate. "Where are we?"

"Home." Zhao Xinyi smiled and kissed her on her forehead.

"I swear your house wasn't this…" she confusedly said, seeing the grand estate upfront.

"The house you use to visit was just one of our houses," Elizabeth explained.

"So this is the main estate of the Zhao?"

"Yup, which is your home now."

"Home?" she smiled liking the sound of it.

As they entered the house, Liu Yifie was surprised when the servants also greeted her.

"Young Princess, welcome home."

"Young Master, welcome home."

"Young Miss, welcome home."

Liu Yifie fl.u.s.tered and didn't know what to do, she bowed and greeted everyone almost like a servant would.

"Sis Yifie, don't worry. They are your family now…" Elizabeth eases her seeing how nervous she looked.

"Young Miss let me get that for you," the servant girl reached out to carry her bags for her.

Seeing as Elizabeth handed her stuff to them she did as well and gave them a bright smile, "Thank you."
