At Xiling Lory and yang Xi Ying back to they're private room, the commotion downstairs still not subside its mostly because men still swarmed all over Tang Mei Yi, some women jealous from all the attention Tang Mei Yi got but what can they do when the men seem to enjoy it.
Than suddenly the commotion downstair disappear and everything becomes quiet than suddenly a soft melody of Gu Qin float in the air the melodious sound spread inside the tea house and people start to close they're eyes to enjoy the soft sound of Gu Qin.
Lory didn't pay much attention to the Gu Qin sounds because its still far from Zhao Li Xin talent, Lory uses to hear Zhao Li Xin play Gu Qin and his sound is more refined and clearer then the sound of the Gu Qin from downstair so she's not impressed.
"What would you do?" Lory picks up a 'Xiao Long Bao' with her chopstick.
Yang Xi Ying also ignoring the Gu Qin sound, although the music is good but nothing is special many people she knew can play better then this and that's including her "I hear a story from Brother Li that the owner of this place is a man, he build this place to commemorated his lover and his hobby is listening to Gu Qin play" said yang Xi Ying with a sly smiles.
Lory giggles "You think Tang Mei Yi is the one who played the Gu Qin?" Lory squints her eyes with mischievous smiles.
"I could bet on it!" Yang Xi Ying softly giggles.
"How long she's been doing this?" Lory put vinegar on her Xiao Long Bao in a careless manner.
Yang Xi Ying has never been this relaxed with her friends because Lory easy-going attitude she starts to lose her guard down and forget his lady-like manner "Mmm….a week I think?" she bites her chopstick while contemplating.

"And she still doing it?" Lory gasped "Talk about persistence.." Lory shakes her head tiredly.
Yang Xi Ying looks downcast "Do you think it won't work?"
Lory put another Xiao Long bao on her plate "Not exactly but I think we might miss something….this owner lover, what else you know about it?"
Yang Xi Ying tilted her head "Brother Li said, that place is the place where the owner and his lover first met, one day the owner had to go because family matters and when he comes home his lover is already dead from sickness"
"Ah…a romantic man" Lory contemplating while nodding her head "No wonder this place has a romantic atmosphere, I surprised the owner of this place is a man because the tea shop design is very feminine" Lory tapped the plated with her chopstick in monotone sounds.
"Is it because most of the customer in this place is mostly women?" said Yang Xi Ying.
Lory straighten her back and prop her chin with her palms "But still, they're should be something in this shop have something described the owner masculine preference, not much but at least a little maybe a manly sculpture or painting but no….everything is very feminine and sweet, can you see it?"
Yang Xi Ying pondering, what Lory said is right she also though the owner is a woman until Li Mo Zhen said the otherwise "You are right, even all the painting have woman picture on it and the sculpture also very delicate not like man choice"
"Right, the painting!" Lory suddenly exclaimed, "Its a painting about the same woman, don't you think?"
Yang Xi Ying's eyes bulged in surprise "You right! I don't realize because the painting didn't always show the face but the appearance of the subject in the painting probably the same!"

"Come on, let's check the painting!" Lory raised from her seat and got out of the room and Yang Xi Ying following her from behind, both of them left the room excitedly they don't care how the others looking at them for the first time for a long time Yang Xi Ying feel exhilarated and carefree she didn't care how others think about her, they all creased they're eyebrows when Lory and Yang Xi Ying ignore everyone they walk around in hasty pace and only stop in front of the painting, no one knows what their thinking.
Lory stands in front of Painting a woman sits on a stone bench beside the pond she can't see the woman face but the pond is the same with the pond outside this building and the stone bench looks the same too.
Yang Xi Ying also examined more painting and just like Lory said all the painting have the same woman, even from behind or side figures they all look the same but because the dress the woman inside the painting is different in every painting so no one took notice but when it look closer its all the same woman.
Yang Xi Ying sees a painting of a woman meeting a man on the red bridge and they're also the same red bridged near the pound than she sees another painting where the woman watching the same man left and the woman waiting under the pink plum blossom tree.
"Ri Yi, the painting is telling a story…" said Yang Xi Ying who was still dumbfounded.
Lory sighs beside her "Yes, its a love story…look" Lory point to another painting near the stairs, its a painting of woman play Gu Qin under the plum flower tree.
"The missing pieces…" Yang Xi Ying mutter.
Unbeknown by Lory and Yang Xi Ying the shop manager whisper to one of the waiter than the waiter run of in hurry, Mong Ki and Mong Yi aware of it but they don't feel the shop manager mean anything harmed to they're Young Miss in contrary the manager smiles in relief.
"What is this mean, I can read it but I can't understand what its mean" Lory point at the poetry on the painting.
Yang Xi Ying as a noble daughter of course, proficient in calligraphy and poetry, Yang Xi Ying eyes fix on the beautiful calligraphy on the painting "Its mean….too late to know each other….too late to say goodbye, meeting in a wrong time" Yang Xi Ying faces suddenly lit up suddenly she looking at Lory
"I know what I should do!"
