The hot morning.

Lau Mei was not in a good mood when she saw the blood stain but instead of being in panic she had done breathing exercises for a few times to make herself calm and called the reception as to ask what happen last night and who brought her inside the room.

"Young Master am sorry but I don't know the answer to your question but you can ask at the King's Library maybe one of the butlers know it." the receptionists said to her and Lau Mei ended the call.

She hurriedly fix herself up and leave the hotel room while she is walking towards the elevator one of the hotel room had a wide open gap. She was surprised from what she saw because of that she hurriedly walks away and consistently press the elevator button and went in when the elevator arrived. She just relaxed herself when the doors of the elevator closed.

"What a hot morning to start on." She said to herself as she don't want to disturb the 2 guys kissing when she saw at one of the hotel room. She didn't see their face but she felt the one guy who is facing its back to her is quite familiar to her but she can't point out who.

"Well now it's the modern days I should also cope to the changes with a mind wide open but I wish they close the door for some privacy." Lau Mei told herself as to be reminded that every thing changes so as she and the world with it. She just need to adjust cause the world will not do it for her.

At the King's Library, Lau Mei was surprised as she didn't expect that the King's Library changes when the sun is up.

The whole King's Library is changed into a café the shelves are still there but the books are different as the books are in trend with the modern days and the artifacts in the shelves last night are changed into a box like cubicle has a table in the center that can fit four people in it and the 4 goddesses fountain at center last night was also changed into a big cherry blossom tree that is protected by a floor to ceiling glass and has an open ceiling on top of the tree and the big chessboard has been change into a wooden platform with a floor to ceiling glass panel that can see thru the recent sunrise rising from the sea and its rays gives a beautiful look to the big cherry blossom tree that makes the whole area more enticing to any guest comes in as if the sunrise represents a new beginning and the cherry blossoms is the witness to your new start of life and the room that was reserved by her mom are now a food counter place of big coffee machines with no butlers but a bunch baristas wearing a simple cafe uniform that serves the guest. The prestigious restaurant place last night was changed in a simple but cozy café full with guest in just a span of a night. The guest are not wearing a elegant dress or suits but instead casual wear that everybody would wear so when Lau Mei entered all the people are looking at her as if she is a businessman looking for a coffee.

The ladies who are just sipping their drinks has caught their attention to a green suited man who just arrived. One of the ladies who is looking at the green suited man forgot that she is refilling her cup with tea but because of the green suited man arrived her cup has been full up to the rim of the cup and eventually overflowed. She only got back to her reality when the tea spilled a small part of her legs.

"Ah..."

Lau Mei is about to ask one of the barista when she heard a female voice like it was hurt. She turned to look for the voice and notice the lady wearing a red color cat ear headband was murmuring to herself as if she was scolding herself.

The girl didn't notice that the man that caught her attention was already in front of her. She just realized when she saw a pair of shoes.

"Are you hurt?" The green suited man asked her. She was stunned when she saw the man up close as it was really handsome at close.

"I-I am okay. Don't worry" The girl smiled as to assure the man. The man left suddenly and headed towards the counter so the girl didn't bother anymore and continued what she is doing but after a few minutes the man in green suit has returned to her with a small bowl at his hand.

"Do you have a handkerchief?" the green man in suit asked him.

"Uhm... Yes, here it is." the lady is hesitant to give her handkerchief to the green suited man.

"Stay still!" the green man in suit said authoritive tone. The man put down the bowl. The bowl has ice cubes on it and the green suited man, took her handkerchief and put some ice cubes in it. Until, it form in a shape of a small ice pack.

"Put it in your legs." the green suited man instructed her.

"Oh... Okay. Thank you!" the girl accepted the ice pack shyly and her face turned red as tomatoes.

Lau Mei do a one knee kneel and look at the lady and speak to her as if comforting her.

"Well it won't help much but I prefer you buy ointment or topical cream to avoid further infection." The green suited man give his advice to her and immediately leave after. The girls in the café are now envy to her as how sweet the action that was given to her by the man himself. Suddenly two of her friends came in and ask her.

"Who is that man?" one of her friends asked.

"Well... I don't know. Am also same as you shocked when he came in" the girl said while looking at the back of the green suited man. Unconsciously her heart skipped a beat.

"Have you even asked his name." her other friend asked.

"Are you crazy! why would I do that?" she frankly said to her friends.

"Your helpless Zhang Jing." her friend told her.

Meanwhile, after Lau Mei attend to the need of help she headed back to the counter

"Do you know where are the butlers?" She asked one of the barista.

"Well young Master its near end of their shift so better you to come later at night 6pm to be exact." the barista said in an apologetic tone.

"Well its an important matter or just tell to the butler that am one of the persons who was compensated with wine" Lau Mei answered.

"Well young Master I'll try what I can do but since your here would like some espresso" the barista said and left.

"Thanks a lot and also for the expresso" Lau Mei give her full smile.

"Please find your seat while we make ready of your espresso" the other barista told him. Lau Mei look for a empty cubicle as to keep the conversation between them.

The ladies who saw Lau Mei smile are smiling from ear to ear and silently squealing to each others as if they have seen their idol for the first time.

After a while the barista brought one butler with him but as soon as he saw Lau Mei he was startled and Lau Mei noticed it.

"Good morning young Master" The butler greeted her.

"Good morning! Please have a seat" Lau Mei greeted her. and leaned closer to the butler.

"Well I'll get straight to the point as to not bother you anymore. What happened last night?" Lau Mei whispered to the butler.

"To be honest young Master..." the butler is about to continue when the barista arrived and greeted them. The barista put down the espresso to Lau Mei and a tall glass of water to the butler then the barista leaves after giving her thanks. After the barista left the butler continued the story and said "slightly am not the one who brought you to the hotel room. The butlers who bought you there are now at the hospital." the butler said.

"Wait!.. Why?" Lau Mei was shocked.

"When the butlers bring the 3 of you to your respective rooms a trouble happened. The butlers bring Mr. Lau, Ms. Zhang together with his body guard brought them inside but to their surprise. Ms. Zhang thought we will do something to her and we didn't expect that she will kick one of us that is now being injured so due to our worries that the guard will suffer the same fate we just bring her body guard with us and left him at the separate room and... "

The butler felt like his nervousness is about to explode cause he doesn't know what will be the reaction of the man in front of him. When the butler is about to tell what happened to Lau Mei.The butler drink a lot of water and told the story in a rapid succession.

"when we bring you to your room you were really drunk but suddenly before we put you down the bed you made multiple punches to our one of the butler and our butler was heavily injured... so to avoid any more trouble we left you at the bed unfixed." the butler said and drink again a lot of water.

Lau Mei felt sorry for the butlers that she trouble them and felt like she was an idiot to get herself drunk to the point that she can't identify the persons around her.

"Am really sorry for what happen" Lau Mei clasped her both hands while she was sitting as if she is disappointed to her behavior last night.

The butler at first was quite terrified to her reaction that the butler made a few big gulps on his throat but when Lau Mei apologies the butler felt a big relief. The butler expected a not good reaction from Lau Mei but it was different as from what the butler imagine as the other loyal guest of King's Library are quite a trouble to handle.

"Please don't be worried. We butlers of King's Library understood our nature of work in a matter of our guest, the King's Library or the whole King's Hotel. We know that any drunk person act recklessly on their own and we butlers are trained to handle those kinds of situations." the butler comforted Lau Mei.
