Chaos (3)
âMind your manners! How could you call her that?!â scolded the empress dowager.
â...â The little princess was shocked. She didnât expect the empress dowager to scold her, and it was all because of this cruel woman again. She was full of resentment now.
âYou all may leave us, there has been a mistake. I know this fair maiden, there wonât be a problem,â said the empress dowager to the guards.
The guards were puzzled, but they were sure of one thing--- theyâd spent so much time running after her for nothing!
They also realised something-- they didnât know WHY they ran either!
However, they could guess the little princess had an argument with the unknown lady. Then, it escalated very quickly into this dramatic scene.
Since the empress dowager herself said there wasnât a problem, then there wasnât a problem!
Very quickly, the guards excused themselves back to their posts. Very efficient indeed- they were palace guards after all.
At this moment, only the spirit girl and little princess remained by her side. Even her bodyguards stood some distance away too. The threat has been resolved, so they didnât have to be too close.
The little princess immediately rushed to answer, âGrandma, she was at the garden, and she ruined my favourite flower, then she wanted to leave, so I ran after her, but she was too fast, no one could catch her, thatâs how she came to you. Oh right, Grandma, how do you know her?â
The little princess blurted like a machine gun, not giving anyone a chance to speakâŠ
Ye Lang patiently waited for her to finish, then added, âAlright, itâs my turn! I did offer to pay and YOU said no!â
âI donât want your stupid money, you stupid gold coin woman!!â exclaimed the princess, shaking her head.
âGold coin woman?â Ye Lang didnât understand, and the empress dowager was curious too.
âThatâs you!! You always bring so much money with you!! Grandma, do you know she bought five hundred and eighty thousand worth of stuff yesterday? And she paid for all of it with gold coins! No one knows why she has so many coins with her,â said the little princess.
â...Youâre full of surprises indeed! Five hundred and eighty thousand! Didnât you spend a hundred and eighty on the necklace, then three hundred thousand on the magic cube? How does that make five hundred and eighty?â
âThatâs not all. She spent a hundred thousand on other stuff, sheâs a prodigal!â The little princess stuck her tongue at the spirit girl as if looking down at dirt.
âI like to be prodigal, thatâs my life goal!â Ye Lang declared his lifeâs goal again, but it felt a little different coming from the spirit girlâs lips.
â...Fair maiden, is the Marge family is okay with this? They let you squander money like that?â Five hundred and eighty thousand gold coins in one day was still a huge sum, even if it was a large family.
No family on this earth could afford to spend like this!
âI donât care, itâs my money!â
âYour money?â
âYeah, itâs all mine!â
âEven if itâs yours, you still canât waste it like this,â advised the empress dowager, as an elder, in a motherly tone.
âNo, I want to spend all my money, until I have none left!â the spirit girl shook her head, rejecting her advice.
â...â
âAlright, you both should settle it among yourselves. Fair maiden, do you want granny to get you a pass to enter and leave this place freely?â The empress dowager smiled.
âItâs alright, I donât like the palace, and I donât want to meet people like her,â whined the spirit girl, pointing at the little princess.
â...â The little princess glared angrily, âHmmph! I donât want to see you either, you cruel woman!!!â
âIâm leaving! Granny, can you get someone to bring me out? I donât know the way,â Ye Lang had finally learned his lesson. He knew he needed help.
âAlright, Iâll get someone. I donât want the palace guards to fuss and run all over the place all because of a girl like you!â She laughed then sent a guard to guide the spirit girl out of the palace.
And that was how Ye Lang finally left the palaceâŠ
After heâd left, the little princess shrieked, âAhh!!â
âWhat now?â
âShe hasnât told me what sheâs going to do about my flower!!â The little princess suddenly recalled their drama. The sudden interruption had thrown everything out of her mind.
âItâs just a flower, itâs not a big deal.â
âGrandma, thatâs so unfair!! You donât love me anymore!!....â The little princess cried as she glared at the empress dowager. She felt like her position had been taken away, that her own grandmother seemed to like that mean woman more than herself.
âDonât be silly, how could grandma not love you? But, I like that girl too. Is it okay if she becomes your sister-in-law?â coaxed the empress dowager, hugging the princess.
She loved her little granddaughter too much, and that wasnât going to change in a day. Ye Lang wasnât THAT lovable.
âSister-in-law? No, I donât like her. Sheâs mean, and she squanders money,â the princess shook her head.
âAbout thatâŠâ the empress dowager didnât know what to say. Sheâd just realised it was indeed a problem. What would happen if this girl became her granddaughter-in-law?
She was a prodigal, so would she squander the royal treasures too?
It was unimaginable!!
After some thought, she found this girl wasnât suitable to at all! How could she manage a family like this?
Then why did she have a good feeling about this girl in the first place? That was weirdâŠ
âŠ
Once Ye Lang left the palace, he was having fun all over Dragon City. He made ripples everywhere he went. It wasnât just because of the spirit girlâs looks, there was also his spending habits that attracted attention.
At the same time, he only used gold coins- which attracted more attention!
This gold coin prodigal lady was a well-known figure across Dragon City. Everyone knew that the thirteenth daughter of the Marge family was a prodigal lady who loved to spend money, and she only paid in gold coins.
âLittle idiot, are we forgetting something?â asked Coldblood Five, turning to Ye Lang. Theyâd already had their share of fun by now.
âAre we? Looks like weâve forgotten!â
He was right! Everything was long forgotten.
âMm, I think so too!â nodded Coldblood Five. Sheâd forgotten too.
Since they couldnât remember, then whatâs the point of caring? Letâs not remember!!
