Chapter 118 Did You Know Why A Fool Could Only Be A Fool

This needle was different from the common ones. It was long, thin, and soft, leading an invisible thread winding around the clothes.

Then, Ronghua just let the needle sew and modify the clothes by itself.

She took out another garment, which was a piece of typical wedding clothes for men. It gave an august and strong feeling at first glance.

These two pieces of clothes must have born the whole lives’ love of a lot of women.

The silk thread was still wandering through the clothes. Ronghua said with sarcasm, “It can say that they have used up their whole life but end with tailoring the wedding clothes for someone else.”

At that time, Rongnuan woke up and did not find the familiar tactile impression with his hands, so he suddenly felt nervous, “Huahua!”

Ronghua was busy adapting the clothes, so she just turned her head a little and answered, “I’m here!” After that, she put away the clothes and acted like nothing had happened, “What’ wrong?”

It was not at dawn yet. Why did he wake up so early? “Did you have a nightmare?”

She noticed the sweat on his head and guessed that he saw something terrible in his dream. Unsurprisingly, he ran towards Ronghua as soon as he saw her, without wearing the shoes, “Huahua!”

He hugged Ronghua forcefully before she entered the room.

“What happened? Did you dream anything?”

The shortness of his breath showed that his dream was horrible and might be a nightmare to him.

“Huahua, I’m scared.”

“Don’t worry.” Ronghua patted at his back, “I’m here. Everything is fine. Tell me, what did you dream of?”

When Rongnuan’s breath was more stable, he finally loosed his arms around her, “Huahua, I saw that man.”

“Who?”

Ronghua looked to his eyes, but he avoided.

“The man who took me away.”

Ronghua had not investigated too much about the one who took him.

“Is he the man who hurt you on that day?”

Rongnuan denied, “No, they are not the same people. Those people just peeled off my skin.”

Ronghua had thought that it was Wu Lu and others who infiltrated into the house and took Rongnuan away, however, when she rethought about this now, she began to wonder who could get in secretly and chose Rongnuan as his specific target. Why did he not take away anyone else but Rongnuan, the only one she took seriously? This man was so good at disguising that he did not leave any evidence, which nearly made her fail to notice Rongnuan had gone missing. If Wu Zhou had not appeared, she might not have found Rongnuan until he died. Now, she realized that it must be someone else who kidnapped Rongnuan.

“Do you remember who he is?”

Rongnuan shook his head, “No, I don’t. I did not see his face. I wanted to help you then, but you asked me to go back, so I left.”

That man even knew that she would not let Rongnuan stay with her at that place. He knew that she would tell Rongnuan to leave for the sake of danger, and knew that Rongnhua would not spare her attention to watch Rongnuan. He did pick the right timing.

He should be someone who knew her well.

“Can you remember anything else, like the smell or the dressing?”

Rongnuan shook his head again, “No, I can’t remember anything. I only knew that when I left you and came back to my room, I felt dizzy before entering the room. I fell in a faint without seeing anything, and then...”

Then Rongnuan was tortured by Wu Lu and his son after he woke up. He refused to tell the truth, no matter how they abused him. Hence Wu Lu was so angry that he peeled off Rongnuan’s skin. Wu Lu also sent Wu Zhou to provoke Ronghua, and they were so confident that she would rage and come to retaliate.

However, they lacked some information that even if Ronghua lost her fan, she was still strong with her spiritual power. Under that condition, she could still defeat Wu Lu without any weapon and hurt Wu Zhou seriously.

Losing the message from Wu Lu and his son, this man might not have enough patience to wait. She believed that he would appear again to find partners, while she did not know who his partner was yet.

“It’s okay. I’m here with you. It is still dark outside, so go to sleep. We have many things to do tomorrow!”

Hearing that, Rongnuan lowered his head to look at her. Ronghua knew what he wanted to say, so she smiled, “I won’t leave. I’ll stay here with you, okay?”

With her promise, Rongnuan went back to his bed obediently, but he did not close his eyes and kept staring at Ronghua.

“Huahua, don’t you sleep?”

Ronghua replied, “Yes, I do. I just never sleep at night.”

Never sleep at night?

“Why?”

Rongnuan was confused. Was not the night the right time for sleep?

Ronghua turned to look at the outside through the window, “It’s just my habit.”

Rongnuan lowered his eye and whispered, “A habit...”

Ronghua sat on one side of the bed and held Rongnuan’s hand. Her hands were cold, but when the time passed, they were a little bit warmer. Rongnuan turned to lie on one side, breathing with the everlasting scent from Ronghua, relaxed and fell asleep with the smell of flowers at last.

Outside the room, stars spread over the sky and sparkled. Ronghua could not count the number of nights when she did not close her eyes. It seemed that she had not slept after she went to that place.

The habit was a terrible thing!

The next day, surprisingly, Xia Pumo did not stay with Murong Zhe and came alone. He looked very serious but fail to say anything as Rongnuan was still sleeping. Until Ronghua had read and commented on the last file and put down her pen, she finally spoke with a low voice, “Let’s talk outside!”

Xia Pumo could not agree more with her.

When they came outside, Xia Pumo could not wait to ask as soon as Ronghua closed the door, “Did Zhe come to see you last night?”

Ronghua nodded, “Yes. He hoped that I could make you a wedding suit.”

Unexpectedly, Xia Pumo was a little annoyed, “It’s silliness. How could he bother you with this thing?”

Ronghua probably did not know the reason as well. At this place, there was a tradition that the wedding clothes should be made by the elders of the family. However, their situation was rare, and none of his elders in the imperial clan of Zither knew how to do the tailoring.

That’s why Murong Zhe came up with the idea to ask Ronghua to made the clothes for them.

“Never mind. I’ve done.”

Xia Pumo was shocked, “Done...done? It’s so fast!”

Ronghua said, “Actually, not yet.”

He breathed a sigh of relief, but before his sigh ended, Ronghua added, “It’s almost done. I’m still modifying the details.”

He was nearly choked by his saliva.

“So...is it done?”

Ronghua was a little bit absent-minded, “It still needs some adjustments according to your size.”

Xia Pumo was embarrassed, “I heard...Zhe told me that you give the Raiment of Rainbow and Feathers to us?”

Ronghua confirmed, “Yes, it is the wedding clothes as well. There’s nothing different, and don’t worry, I’ve never worn it.”

Xia Pumo waved his hand, anxiously, “No, I didn’t mean that. It is your...” wedding clothes. Did she really decide to give it to them?

As Murong Zhe had said last night, their wedding garments were hard to make and needed a lot of time. Some materials of the clothes were the things they had never heard of.

Ronghua asked, “What? Are you worried that it would not look nice?”

“How can I?” Xia Pumo felt flattered, “I just feel this gift is so expensive. After all, it’s yours...”

Ronghua lowered her head and did not answer him at once. After a while, she lifted her head, looked at him, and smiled unconcernedly, “It’s just a piece of clothing. I can sew one more if I need it. Moreover, it will be the first time that so many people will give you good wishes after you two started the relationship. How could I give you the wedding raiments which are not the best?”

She said all these so sincerely that Xia Pumo felt it would be so hypocritical to refuse. How could he decline her since this was Ronghua’s blessing for them?

“Okay, then I’ll be looking forward to your work.”

When the imperial clan of Zither was besieged, all those who wanted to fish in troubled waters and came for ill-gotten gains were captured and locked in the dungeon by Ronghua. Now that she finally had the free time, she went to the dungeon to interrogate them with Rongnuan accompanied.

Those people had found an accurate time to come and attack. This made her doubt whether that man had even developed his power in the Realm of Humans.

There were patriarchs and disciples of those imperial clans locked in the dungeon. When Ronghua arrived, their vigor of attacking the imperial clan of Zither went away, and no one dared to breathe heavily.

They all tried to hide in the corner.

Ronghua ignored them and directly walked through the crowd. The guard recognized her and walked hurriedly to greet her.

“Your Highness.”

Ronghua waved her hand and instructed him to leave. Then the guard knew that she would begin the interrogation. Ronghua stopped in front of Xu Chao, the patriarch of the imperial clan of Sword. He was sitting on the ground, hands and feet locked by the dark iron, spiritual power blocked. He was just like a normal person now.

Ronghua squinted at him. They just gazed at each other, and neither of them spoke.

Rongnuan looked at her and asked, “Huahua, why do we come here?”

Ronghua did not answer. Her fingers were rubbing something, and there was unknown happiness increasing in her eyes. Even Rongnuan felt a little frightened.

Later, Ronghua started the conversation, “The imperial clan of Zither is always more outstanding among the greatest imperial clans, so you kept greedy desire and kept thinking about how to destroy it and occupy its wealth to develop your own force.”

Xu Chao still sat cross-legged and kept silent. Ronghua smiled, stepped backward, and sat down. “Your plan was perfect, but unfortunately, none of you had expected that I would be here, and Xia Pumo had come back. Although no one in the imperial clan of Zither could be a threat to you, except for Xia Puyang, the patriarch, they were still not very easy to suppress. Even if Xia Pumo had devoted all his effort to strengthen the formation graph, the rest of them would not be weak enough to put down. Therefore, you thought of Yang Quan, the patriarch of the imperial clan of Boxing.”

When she mentioned Yang Quan, Xu Chao opened his eyes to look at her. Ronghua smiled, “All the people who know Yang Quan also know that he was homosexual, and he had a large number of toyboys in his house. You also know that Xia Pumo was not here, but Xia Puyang was famous for his good appearance. Yang Quan had been coveting him for a long time but had no way to get him, so you made use of this to ask the imperial clan of Boxing to join your side.”

At the end of her words, Xu Chao finally moved, “It sounds like it is all the truth. Even I want to ask if you participated in this, and that’s why you know all the details?”

Ronghua snorted coldly, “Do you know why a fool can only be a fool?”

Xu Chao replied, “Because they don’t know they’re foolish and thought they were smart.”

Ronghua looked at him, smiling and fingers rubbing. It was hard to tell any emotion from her expression and actions.

She asked, “So, who told you the weakness of the imperial clan of Zither’s formation graph?”
