Chapter 196: 196

The Palace (2)

“Any colour looks good on my spirit girl!” said Ye Lang airily, as he started to help it out of its clothes .

“You little pervert!” said Coldblood Five again . She had to insult him every time he took off its clothes .

“I didn’t take off EVERYTHING, so how could you call me pervert? You can only say it if I did that!”

“Hmmph! It’s not like you haven’t stripped her naked before . ”

“Exactly, and I didn’t stop you from shouting then, did I? If it’s not naked, don’t shout,” said Ye Lang .

“ . . . ” Coldblood Five was speechless .

“ . . . ” Coldblood Seven was stunned .

“We’re done here! Let’s go!” Uh, where should we hide? This dress doesn’t even have a pocket…” Ye Lang noticed a very serious problem . After putting on this dress, both of them couldn’t hide at her cleavage area, nor anywhere else .

“ . . . ” Coldblood Five and Seven fell silent again .

“Why don’t we hide in her dress? I guarantee no one would find us,” said Ye Lang, looking at the skirt section of the dress . As long as she didn’t lift her dress up, no one would find them underneath .

“Only you will think of a place like this! How can we hide in there?!” said Coldblood five .

“What’s the problem? It’ll have to do, as long as no one sees us!”

“It’s a private area!!”

“It’s not even a real person, only a reanimated spirit! What’s the problem?”

“You still can’t do that either, it’s weird!” Coldblood Five shook her head .

“Are we doing this again? You women are annoying . . . Women? Oh, I know,” as he muttered, Ye Lang suddenly recalled something very popular among ladies .

“What?” Coldblood Five was ready to kick if he proposed another perverted idea .

“She can hold a clutch or a handbag!” Ye Lang quickly found a white, elegant clutch in the room . This clutch was enough to fit both Ye Lang and Coldblood Five, and there would still be a lot of room left .

It didn’t ruin the girl’s look, possibly making the outfit better .

“Not bad . . . That’ll do!” Coldblood Five pulled Ye Lang into the clutch . She planned to alter the dress in the carriage on the way to the palace .

Them royal messengers would definitely have a carriage!

However, a small problem occurred as they were getting on the carriage . The royal messengers politely stopped Coldblood Seven from getting on .

The emperor of the Vermilion Bird Empire only invited Lady Marge, but not Coldblood Seven . Naturally, they couldn’t let Coldblood Seven tag along . Although it was embarrassing for Coldblood Seven, she understood .

The emperor was different from commoners . If His Grace wanted to meet you, your name would be mentioned . If not, that would mean he had no plans to meet you . Coldblood Seven could’ve tagged along if they were meeting a commoner, but this was the emperor .

“I’m going to the palace too . I’ve promised to meet Princess Longxin, Prince Longyang and I was just about to meet them . Do you mind?” Coldblood Seven knew, but she still wanted to try her luck . If they didn’t let her on, she’d just meet the princess and the prince .

“If that’s the case… We don’t mind…” said the messenger, sweating . He knew people like them couldn’t be offended, he was fortunate he politely refused her before or there’d be trouble .

“Prince Longyang? Doesn’t he have the Longyang . . . ?” laughed Ye Lang .

“He . . . Does…” said the messenger, still sweating . Had the prince done anything odd to Lady Marge?

“Really? That’s interesting,” said Ye Lang, surprised . He was only joking, he didn’t know it was true .

However, Ye Lang was referring to a different thing from the messenger . Ye Lang was referring to the slang for the prince being attracted to men, but the messenger was referring to something else .

With this miscommunication, Ye Lang reminded himself not to get all over this man!

“Lady Marge, and . . . ” the messenger wanted to invite them onto the carriage, but he forgot he didn’t know Coldblood Seven’s name .

“I’m Xue Qi, her cousin,” offered Coldblood Seven .

“Oh, Ms Xue, please get on the carriage,” he said respectfully, gesturing to the carriage .

On the carriage, Ye Lang and Coldblood Five jumped out of the clutch . Coldblood Five immediately started altering the dress, while Ye Lang directed from afar, somewhat rudely . She didn’t listen to all his instructions though .

“Little brat!” warned Coldblood Seven solemnly when she saw him instructing Coldblood Five .

“What? I’m very busy,” Ye Lang was directing Coldblood Five at a tight spot, watching her dance with a needle . To ‘dance’ was the right word because the needle looked like a sword in her hand .

Coldblood Five’s stitching skills were impressive indeed . Very soon, the ill-fitting dress looked as if it was made just for the spirit girl .

As for Ye Lang’s instructions? Most of them had to be filtered off, for he only had one or two good ideas .

Ye Lang knew he wasn’t the best at women’s fashion, or he wouldn’t have chosen Liu Feiyan to help Zhen Xiaoyan with her outfit .

Coldblood Seven looked at Coldblood Five, a little surprised she was good at sewing . She didn’t care much though, it wasn’t abnormal for a girl to know how to sew, assassin or not .

“Little brat, remember to behave at the palace when you meet the emperor! I need you to make him like you, so he would invite you to the ceremony! You must remember this, remember what we’re here for!!” reminded Coldblood Seven . She was worried because Ye Lang wasn’t a person who cared about anything . In fact, being reckless as he was, he might accidentally offend the emperor .

If that happened, forget about the ceremony- he might be dead by then!

“Alright, I know, I’ll remember! IF I remember…” said Ye Lang, being very honest .

“ . . . ”

“Coldblood Five, watch him! Don’t tolerate the brat anymore!” Coldblood Seven could only put her hope on Coldblood Five . She was the last resort . If there were any other options, Coldblood Seven wouldn’t have relied on Coldblood Five like this .

Coldblood Five was only good at murder, she didn’t know anything else!
